Chapter 583 Organizing the troops

The officers looked at me with an even stranger look when they saw their general acting this way, but I also ignored them.

Once they were all seated, I calmly said, "I have already discussed this matter with the vice general and have come to an agreement. For the next engagement, I will be the one in charge of everything. You will just have to follow my orders and everything will turn out alright."

The officers all revealed shocked looks when they heard this before turning to look at General Killock.

But they found that General Killock was looking away as if he couldn't match their gazes.

It was as if he was guilty about something and wouldn't look in their direction.

Almost as if he was giving his silent approval for this.

The moment that they realized this, they couldn't help being shocked even more.

Just what had happened in the time that they were alone that General Killock was acting this way now?

They couldn't understand at all…

Or at least the ones that didn't have the private talk with Count Zwein couldn't understand.

The ones that did were even more shocked since they knew what kind of tactics he used.

He had exposed their secrets and had forced them into submission. The minor things that they had thought that they had hidden well enough had all been laid bare by this Count Zwein who shouldn't have known these things.

If he were to expose them, there was no doubt that they would have suffered from it.

So they were shocked to find that General Killock was hiding something as well.

Just what did their valiant and upright general have hidden?

It must be something very shocking for him to even listen to Count Zwein…

Seeing the looks that they gave me, I wasn't surprised at all.

I just calmly said, "Now that we've established this, it's time to organize ourselves for our first engagement."

All of the officers still looked at me with strange looks, but there was a seriousness that came over them when they heard this.

Even if they were shocked by everything that happened, they were military personnel and recovered quickly.

They all looked at me with serious looks, as if they were judging me.

It seemed that within the next few minutes, what I said would determine their view of me.

However, I wasn't nervous at all.

I had plenty of information and plenty of cards to play, I had only just begun. With all of this, there was no need for me to be worried about anything.

Over the next hour, I laid out the plan that I had for our first engagement.

At first, they just listened to me silently with serious looks on their faces. All the while, it seemed like they were judging my plan, seeing if it was feasible or not.

But halfway through, the expression on the faces of officers completely changed.

It was as if they couldn't believe what I was saying.

When it was over, General Killock was the first to say, "Are you serious about this?"

I just gave a simple nod in response.

The officers all looked at General Killock as if they were expecting him to say something, but General Killock hesitated.

After all, this plan was a plan at the very least…

It wasn't the best plan, it wasn't even considered a good plan.

If he had to describe it, he would have used one single word.

Sloppy!

That was the only thing that this plan could be described with.

It was clear that Count Zwein was an amateur when it came to the art of war based on the plan that he had just proposed. This was a kind of plan that had many holes that the enemies could take advantage of and would be easily dismantled when facing any normal strategist.

However, the one thing that was special about this plan was that it was low risk.

Though they would lose territory if they lost this battle, it was territory that wasn't important.

At the same time, the plan even seemed like it emphasized retreat.

This kind of plan couldn't be considered a plan of attack, but rather a plan for retreat.

Count Zwein's information network was clearly nothing to scoff at with the things that he had said before, so would he really be this kind of fool?

That was the only thing that General Killock was hesitating about.

Still, for the sake of his bet, he was considering accepting the plan that Count Zwein had proposed.

After all, it was clear that there was no chance of winning with this plan, but there was a high chance of avoiding any casualties to his men.

So this seemed like the perfect chance for him to win this bet.

The only real downside was that they would lose prestige for losing this battle, but that could always be made up later in the war. As long as they still maintained their power, it would be easy to make up for this besmirching to their prestige with a single battle.

In the end, General Killock took a deep breath and said, "Alright, let's do as the general says."

All of the officers looked at General Killock in shock as if they couldn't believe what he said.

But since General Killock had spoken, it wasn't as if they could say anything.

In the end, they just had to accept that they would be following their new general's plan.

Seeing that General Killock agreed, I gave a satisfied nod before saying, "You will soon understand the true genius of my plan."

Hearing this, General Killock and the other officers all revealed bitter smiles.

Instead of seeing the genius of his plan, all they could see was his foolishness…
