NABC Chapter 469
Chapter 469
Ghislain's orders were clear, and Claude nodded in acknowledgment.
“Understood. How shall we divide the forces?”
If the Northern Army moved as a single unit, they could stop any enemy advance. After all, Ghislain and Ereneth were with them.
However, such a strategy would leave the remaining fronts exposed to defeat. Dividing their forces was inevitable.
Ghislain pointed at the map.
“I’ll take a mobile unit of twenty thousand and head toward the direction where the commander was holding the line. Claude, you’ll lead the rest. Divide your forces further if necessary.”
Ereneth and the core advisors were entrusted to Claude. Even in Ghislain’s absence, they had enough strength to face the Delphine Army effectively.
“The Eastern Army commander is dead, and the Kingdom’s forces have been crushed. However, the lords and allied forces have managed to reestablish a defensive line for now.”
“Then leave it alone. Someone else will deal with it.”
“Someone else? Wait, you don’t mean...?”
“Yes, Amelia won’t miss a chance like this. She’s probably itching to take control of the East.”
“Count Rayfold may have proven her competence in the last war, but... the disparity in forces is too great. The Delphine Army isn’t like the barbarians.”
Their soldiers were not only of higher quality but also commanded by skilled officers. Furthermore, at least one superhuman from the Salvation Order was likely embedded in their ranks.
Even if Amelia combined her forces with those remaining in the East, it would be a steep uphill battle.
