Volume 19 Chapter 39 Evacuation and Self-Examination

The presidents waited until I was completely out of sight before looking at Matsumoto Masaru in confusion and asking, "What's going on?"

"Look outside the city." Masamoto Matsumoto said coolly and flew towards the city wall first.

Seeing Matsumoto Masaga being so arrogant, the presidents around him were a little unhappy, but due to Matsumoto Masaga's strength, even if they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to express anything. They could only look at each other and then walked towards the city wall together. Let me first understand the reason for my sudden departure.

When the Japanese guild presidents arrived at the city wall, they saw a large number of Japanese players cheering there. They probably guessed something and rushed up to the city wall. As a result, they happened to see the city wall. Those guild troops who are gradually moving away.

"Is this a victory?" Seeing the sudden retreat of the Chinese troops, the presidents of the Japanese guilds still felt a little unbelievable. This victory really came a bit too suddenly. The battlefield that was in danger one minute was suddenly victorious the next minute. This contrast is indeed a bit unacceptable. But no matter how hard it is to accept, you have to accept it, because it is the truth. Moreover, for the Japanese, this was their victory. Even if they were surprised, it was a surprise rather than a fright. Therefore, the Japanese presidents were quickly infected by the excitement of the nearby Japanese players and cheered together.

In fact, according to the way of thinking of these presidents, the city belonged to Masa Matsumoto, and victory and defeat had nothing to do with them, so they should not be so happy that the city was preserved. However, precisely because he knew the situation of these presidents so well, Masamoto Matsumoto’s special envoy had already made an agreement with them when they signed the agreement. The prerequisite for the exchange of cities to take effect was the success of the defense battle of Fulcrum City. If Fulcrum City failed If they keep it, then the agreement they exchanged will be automatically voided, which means they will get nothing. It is precisely because there are clauses about this content in the agreement that the presidents of these Japanese guilds are so excited. Rather than celebrating the victory in the defense of Fulcrum City, they are celebrating that they have obtained a new city to use. Exchange Fulcrum City.

While these presidents were celebrating their victory, Masamoto Matsumoto was directing the troops he brought out this time to fight outside the city.

"President, why don't you let us pursue you?" A very excited Japanese player was standing in front of Masamoto Matsumoto with an anxious look on his face. "Such a good opportunity, if you miss it, will you never get it again? Please, President, give me one hundred thousand, no, only thirty thousand, give me thirty thousand, I promise to defeat these Chinese troops Disabled."

"If you can really cripple the Frost Rose Alliance's troops, let alone 30,000, even 300,000, I will find a way to get you together." Upon hearing Matsumoto Masaru say this, the Japanese player immediately became excited He wanted to express his determination, but before he could speak, Matsumoto Masaru said first: "But if I really give the army to you, then you will not be the only one who will be maimed."

"President!"

"Okay Murata-kun, listen to what the president has to say." A Japanese player in a Japanese samurai costume blocked the excited player who wanted to come forward to congratulate Matsumoto, and then said: "Why did we follow Matsumoto? Have you forgotten? It’s because Chairman Matsumoto’s decisions are always so effective. We have fought so many battles and even recovered countries that had been completely occupied. You still have doubts about Chairman Matsumoto’s fighting spirit? Really? So, since the president doesn’t allow it, there must be a reason. Just listen to what the president has to say."

Masamoto Matsumoto glanced at the player who stopped the impulsive Murata, but secretly sighed that this guy was not easy to fool. On the surface, it seemed that he was holding back Murata, but in fact, his words were sending a signal to Matsumoto Masa, asking Matsumoto Masa to explain the basis for his decision. In fact, in terms of ideas, this guy actually has the same idea as Murata, except that Murata is a big boss and will shout out whatever he has in mind, while this guy is more calm.

"You want to know why I don't let you chase me?" Masamoto Matsumoto said this while looking at the calm guy. He meant to tell the other person that I know your thoughts and don't pretend to be innocent in front of me. After staring at the guy for a while, and making sure that he understood what he meant, Matsumoto Masamoto continued: "Okay, then I will tell you the reason." After speaking, Matsumoto Masamoto pointed forward and asked: "You guys What did you see?"

"The Chinese who are escaping." Murata responded quickly, but the relatively calm guy did not answer, obviously thinking about the purpose of Matsumoto Masa's question.

Masamoto Matsumoto didn't expect them to give the correct answer anyway, so he didn't wait for the guy to think about it and said directly: "What I saw was a moving army."

"Yes, the Chinese troops are escaping. Isn't it the same as what I saw?" The impatient Murata said again, but the guy next to him looked at Matsumoto as if he had thought of something. He waited for his answer.

"No." Masamoto Matsumoto corrected: "We are seeing different things. You are talking about the fleeing Chinese, but what I see is the moving troops. Note that they are not escaping, but It’s transferring.”

The calmer guy didn't seem to understand until this moment and asked: "You mean... they were not defeated by us?"

"That's right." Masamoto Matsumoto replied affirmatively: "The Chinese were not defeated by us. They had foreseen the outcome of the battle in advance, and comprehensively judged that there was no need to continue this battle. So they chose Evacuate early instead of staying to finish this battle.”

"What difference does this make?" That fool Murata still didn't quite understand.

This time, there was no need for Masamoto Matsumoto to answer. The calm guy took the initiative and answered on Masamoto Matsumoto's behalf: "Murata, it seems we did make a mistake. If the Chinese evacuated on their own instead of being defeated by us, that would mean Their combat effectiveness is still preserved. The reason why they evacuated was because they predicted that the losses would be greater than the gains, so they gave up voluntarily. It is not that they really can't defeat us. If we take the initiative to pursue us now, they can form formations on the spot. A counterattack wiped us all out. Without the help of the troops in the city, we are no match at all."

"Is the Chinese army so powerful?" Murata asked in disbelief: "If they are really so powerful, why do they have to withdraw? Don't tell me anything about lost profits, I can't calculate it. I only know that if they can defeat If we, then they can get the Fulcrum City, and as long as they get the Fulcrum City, then they will be the biggest winners. How can there be any saying that the losses are greater than the gains?"

Masamoto Matsumoto replied: "You still don't understand. The Chinese believe that the reason for the heavy losses in the battle is that we and the troops in the city are attacking them from both sides. Because our attack from the rear prevented the Chinese's siege warfare from being fully utilized Combat power. If they continue fighting like this, they won't be able to capture Fulcrum City, which means they won't be able to achieve their strategic goals. What's the point of continuing a battle that is destined to fail to achieve its strategic goals?"

"Then you said they are better than us?" Murata countered still unconvinced.

"Yes, what I said is that they are better than us, not that they are better than Japanese players." Masamoto Matsumoto said: "In the siege battle, in addition to us, they have to face Japanese players in the city, and Fulcrum City itself The city's defense advantage can play a role to some extent. But if you go for a pursuit, the defense of Fulcrum City and the troops in the city will not help you at all. Moreover, I need some troops to take over Fulcrum City, so you can bring them to pursue The troops are definitely not all ours. Although the strength of the Chinese troops cannot compete with our entire Japanese troops, is there any difficulty in solving your pursuit troops? Besides, the order of evacuation of their troops It is clear that the formation of the team is intact and there is no sign of chaos. Generally, pursuing victory on the battlefield is to take advantage of the chaos when the enemy is defeated, but are the Chinese troops in chaos? They are not Ran', what do you want to take advantage of if you catch up?"

After being taught a lesson by Masamoto Matsumoto, the player was completely exhausted. It wasn't because he was afraid of Matsumoto Masaga, but because what Matsumoto Masaga said was so reasonable that he couldn't muster the will to resist. Just like what Masamoto Matsumoto said at the end, chasing after a victory is to take advantage of the enemy's confusion. If the Chinese are not confused, why should he pursue him? Are you going to die?

Just when the guy looked frustrated and was about to take people to Fulcrum City to take over the city's defense, Matsumoto Masa unexpectedly suddenly stopped him again. "Murata."

"Do you have any other orders, President?" Murata, who looked like an eggplant beaten by frost, looked at Matsumoto Masa weakly and asked.

Matsumoto Masaru laughed, and then said: "Go and order 100,000 troops and follow them."

"Huh?" He had just asked for soldiers but was given a lesson. Now he planned to defend the city honestly, but he was sent a hundred thousand troops. Murata was stunned by Matsumoto Masaru.

"What are you so excited about? Hurry up and order 100,000 troops to follow the Chinese troops."

"Aren't you going to let me chase?" Murata asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Masamoto Matsumoto said angrily: "I said I wouldn't let you pursue me, but did I just say I would let you pursue me?"

"Why do you want me to lead 100,000 people to follow the Chinese if I don't let them pursue you? Do you want to see them off?"

"Yes, it's just a farewell." Murata originally said just angry words, but he didn't expect Matsumoto Masaru to actually say that. "Your task is to see off the Chinese and use 100,000 people to suppress the Chinese. If they go, you go. If they stop, you stop. If they come after you, you just run away with them. Anyway, you You have to stick to them like chewed gum. But you must remember this - no fighting."

"Why?"

"For no reason, you are not allowed to fight." Masamoto Matsumoto said very solemnly: "If you dare to bring people into contact with the Chinese, then prepare to be expelled from the Ghost Dragon Society by me. And let me tell you, not only will I If we expel you, we will send people to hunt you down day and night, and you will be responsible for all the consequences. You will become a sinner of the Japanese nation."

"Then what if the Chinese take the initiative to fight back? Is it my fault?" Murata asked.

"If the Chinese take the initiative to fight back, just run away."

"What if I can't run away?"

"It's also your fault."

"This is possible too?"

"Yes, that's okay. Of course, you can choose not to perform this mission." Murata was about to say angrily that he would not perform the mission, but Matsumoto Masaru suddenly turned around and said in a nonchalant manner: " But if you don’t perform this mission, you won’t have to perform it anymore.”

"I... OK, I admit defeat, who calls you the president!" Murata finally accepted the task helplessly, then turned around and ran to order people.

The relatively calm guy who was following Murata just now said: "Matsumoto-kun, Murata's personality is really not suitable for this kind of work. Do you think you want me to assist him...?"

Masamoto Matsumoto stretched out his hand to stop the other party's words. "Shigure-kun, please don't go. This mission is actually not that complicated. Let Murata go just to give him more training. If his character is not polished as soon as possible, he will suffer a loss sooner or later. .As for you..." Masamoto Matsumoto looked at the other party in silence for a long time, and finally suddenly turned the conclusion into a question. "What do you think is your problem?"

Shigure was stunned for a moment when he was asked. He looked at Matsumoto Masaru and paused for a long time before saying, "I think maybe I need to hone my way of dealing with others!"

"Oh, that's it." Masamoto Matsumoto deliberately thought for a while and then said: "I want to give you something that you may not like, but it is very important to you."

Shigure was once again stunned by Matsumoto Masaru's words, and then frowned and said: "Matsumoto-kun, what do you mean?"

Masamoto Matsumoto did not answer his words, but said to himself: "This sentence is: Although there is no shortage of fools in this world, there are more smart people." After saying this, Masamoto Matsumoto ignored him. Shigure there turned around and said to the others following him: "Let's collect the team and return to the city. We will take over Fulcrum City."

Under the call of Masamoto Matsumoto, the large forces of the Ghost Dragon Society finally quickly withdrew to the Fulcrum City, and the 100,000 elites with higher mobility were taken out by Murata and followed our guild's troops all the way to Kyushu Island. The direction left Fulcrum City.

While Matsumoto was congratulating them on the strategic adjustment, I had also returned to Essinger. In the Essinger Conference Hall at this time, all the senior staff of the guild had arrived. When I sat down, the military god immediately projected a map of the Sino-Russian border and prepared to explain to us, but Unexpectedly, the meeting was interrupted before the military god could speak.

We were about to have a meeting when suddenly we heard a bang, the door of the conference hall was slammed open, and a senior NPC flew in from the door. Everyone here recognizes the senior NPC wearing this kind of equipment, because he is the NPC guard responsible for guarding the conference hall, which means that we have to pass by him every time we come to a meeting. However, now the guard was beaten in from the outside. It seemed that someone was planning to rush into the conference hall, otherwise there would be no conflict with the conference hall guards.

Although he was beaten into the conference hall, the people guarding this place were high-level NPCs in the guild after all, and they were not comparable to ordinary fish. So although he was knocked and flew in, the guard was not injured. He just rolled on the ground a few times and then jumped up. At this time, we also saw a very crazy player rushing in desperately, but His crazy behavior ended here, because as soon as he took a step into the conference hall, he was thrown to the ground by two guards who rushed up from behind, followed by two more guards who rushed up and twisted his hands. Behind him, he held his shoulders and pinned him to the ground.

Even though he was so pressed that he couldn't move, the guy was still struggling desperately. He looked as crazy as he wanted, as if he was crazy.

Although the guy who was pressed couldn't move, his mouth was not blocked. He struggled while still shouting: "Let me go, I want to see the president. Let me see President Ziri, you bastards, hurry up." Let me go. Ah...let me go! I want to see President Ziri."

While the guy was struggling and shouting, the guard on the ground had already climbed up. Judging from his equipment, he seemed to be the captain of the guard team. After getting up, the captain immediately gave us a military salute and said: "I'm sorry, President, this is my dereliction of duty."

I said more solemnly: "We haven't started discussing things yet, so let's forget it this time. But I don't want it to happen again."

The captain said quickly: "Yes, there will never be a next time." After that, he turned around and waved to the guard who was pressing the guy. "Drag him down."

After hearing the captain's order, the guards holding down the guy immediately tried to drag the crazy guy out, but the guy on the ground struggled even more crazily and shouted: "President, President Ziri , Ziri... I have something to say. I have something to say! Let me in, let me in." Seeing that we had no reaction at all, the guy suddenly bowed his butt upwards and knocked the two guards away, then twisted and hardened He pulled off the joint of one of his arms, taking this opportunity to break away from the two guards who were pressing him. Then he quickly got up and rushed in while using his other hand to pull the dislocated arm. The hand was forced back again. Unfortunately, his efforts only allowed him to rush forward two steps. After the guard behind him was knocked away, he immediately rushed back, hugged him and threw him to the ground. These guards are all super-high-level elite NPCs, and their combat effectiveness is not the least bit strong. The reason why he was able to get through the defenses of these guards and enter the gate was entirely because the guards saw that he was a member of our guild, so they never made any serious moves. That’s all. The best proof is that the guards' weapons are still in their sheaths so far.

The guy who was knocked down by one of the guards still wanted to move forward, but the other two guards also pounced on him and once again suppressed him and dragged him out. However, the guy wriggled to the door like a "hairy" caterpillar. He reached out and grabbed the door frame and refused to let go. If the three guards behind him directly carried him out, it wouldn't take much effort, but it would be more difficult for him to pull on the door frame like this.

Seeing that this guy refused to let go, the captain who had been beaten into the air was obviously angry. The NPCs who can be arranged to guard such an important place as the conference hall are all high-level NPCs with advanced intelligence. They all have their own independent personality traits and emotional systems. This guy obviously made the guard captain lose face in front of us, so he is very angry now. As he walked towards the man, he drew out the sword from his waist. This was the first time the guard used a weapon. "Give you three seconds. If you don't let go, I will cut off your hand."

"No, I don't, I want to see that bastard Ziri." I don't know if he was anxious, but the guy actually started scolding me.

It would have been embarrassing for the guard captain to have someone break into the guarded conference hall. Now not only did that person break in, but he also cursed me. Now he was really angry. Without even counting the seconds, the captain raised his sword and was about to chop it down. However, just when his sword was raised to the highest point and he was about to chop down, I suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute." When I heard The guard captain turned to look at me. I knew he was asking, so I said again: "Let him go. Let him come in. I want to hear why he scolded me."

Now that I had spoken, the captain had nothing to say. He immediately waved to the guards to let go of the guy, then walked over and picked up the guy who was still holding on to the door and threw him towards the meeting. In the middle of the hall. Since the stone on the floor of the conference hall was relatively smooth, the guy fell on the ground and slid all the way to the center of the conference hall as if he had fallen on ice. The guard captain over there drove away the other guards and turned around and closed the door. , but he did not go out. Instead, he walked to the wall of the conference hall and stood there, preparing to drag the guy out again.

After being thrown into the middle of the conference hall, the guy immediately got up from the ground. Then he glared at the guard captain provocatively, then turned to me and asked fiercely: "We are about to win, why did you let us retreat?" ?”

The guy's bad attitude made me frown slightly, and then I stared at the guy silently. The other leaders of the guild on both sides of the conference table saw me staring at the guy without speaking, so they He turned around and looked at the guy silently. The guy's attitude was quite arrogant at first, but after all, the person present was the most high-end person in the guild. Not to mention his personal strength, his status alone was not something he could easily despise. Being stared at at the same time by so many people who were higher than him in terms of status and personal strength, the guy's originally arrogant and manic mood gradually cooled down, and in the end he even got a little stage fright.

In fact, people are all the same. Whether they are sad or excited, various extreme emotions are usually difficult to maintain for a long time. There were so many guild bosses at the scene staring at him coldly. The depressing atmosphere was like a solemn court. People who stay in this atmosphere for a long time will soon be overwhelmed by it, no matter what their original mood is. Out of breath.

"Have you calmed down?" I asked coldly after seeing that the guy changed from the state of a maniac to a quail-like state.

As soon as he heard my voice, the guy couldn't help but trembled, and then he quickly nodded and said "hmm" as an answer.

"Now that you've calmed down, let's talk about the purpose of your coming." Although it was a question, I said it in a commanding tone.

The guy was about to transform into a quail. After I asked this question, he immediately cheered up, but his momentum was suppressed. After he cheered up, he could barely speak normally. "Well, I actually just want to ask why we were asked to withdraw our troops suddenly."

"Your identity?"

"Oh, I am Cricket Pigeon, the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army of our guild's field army."

"Handsome guy? I think you are a crazy dove."

"Hey, it's not handsome, it's cricket's cricket, pigeon's pigeon."

"Okay, Comrade Cricket Ge, let me ask you a few questions now." Cricket nodded and said yes, and then I asked: "First, which one has a higher status in the guild, you or me?"

Cricket was stunned when I asked him, not because the question was too difficult, but on the contrary, because the question was too simple, so he was stunned. However, although he was stunned by my question, he quickly responded and replied: "Of course you are taller."

"Then why do I need to inform you about the military deployment of the troops in the guild?"

"I didn't..." Cricket immediately wanted to refute what I said, but I beat him to it.

"Don't tell me that you don't think so. If you don't think so, why do you come to question my arrangements? As the president of the guild, don't the guild transfer arrangements I make require your permission?"

"I'm not……"

Cricket's defense was interrupted by me again. "I know you want to say that you don't think so, but you did it, and in the most inappropriate way. The Frost Rose Alliance conference hall is the meeting place for the veteran members of the guild, and you are just a member of the Sixth Legion. Legion Commander, your guild status is only that of a senior member. Why do you break into the conference hall without permission? Also, I just heard you scolding me. As a member of the guild, you publicly insulted me on this occasion. What does it mean?"

"I'm not..." I asked so incoherently that I couldn't even speak clearly.

"Do you still want to defend?" I continued to press.

"I...I was wrong." I was helpless and thought about it for a long time, but I really couldn't find any reason to excuse my behavior. No matter what the purpose of his visit was, at least he not only made mistakes in the few things I asked about, but he was also very wrong.

Seeing that he finally bowed his head, I said: "Fortunately, you can still distinguish right from wrong. If you firmly refuse to admit your mistakes, I will have no choice but to expel you from the guild this time. The Frost Rose Alliance does not need to know right from wrong." People who can't tell the difference." I, Cricket Pigeon, was shocked by my words. Expelling a guild may not be a big deal in other guilds, but for our guild, this punishment is very serious. After all, our guild's welfare benefits and other conditions are much superior to other guilds. Being expelled from our guild is basically equivalent to losing a diamond job. Of course, no one wants such an unfortunate thing to happen to us. On myself.

After scaring me for a while, I made another big turn and continued: "But...since you can still distinguish right from wrong, I can take the matter lightly this time. From now on, your first The Sixth Legion will be taken over by your deputy. Your position as legion commander will be revoked and you will be demoted to an ordinary soldier. Five hundred guild contribution points will be deducted, effective immediately."

"President..." I was fooled by me. Although this punishment is better than expulsion, it is definitely not light. It's tragic enough that the post of legion commander is completely removed, but the guild contribution points are also deducted, which is a super valuable thing! On the black market within the guild, each contribution value can now be purchased for 20 yuan, which is simply worth more than crystal coins. Deducting 500 contribution points at a time is equivalent to erasing 10,000 yuan at a time. Isn’t this lesson tragic enough?

"Aren't you convinced?" I asked in a cold voice.

I originally wanted to protest, but after thinking about it for a while I didn’t say anything. I could only say dejectedly: “I accept.”

"Very good, you still know how to advance and retreat. As a reward, I will at least make you understand when you die." Hearing my words, I looked up at me in surprise. I didn't know what I meant, but I didn't have time. Ignore him and just say: "Don't you want to know why I asked the troops attacking Fulcrum City to evacuate?"

Hearing this, I, Cricket, immediately nodded my head desperately. This was the reason why he barged into the conference hall today, but he was so punished by me that he even forgot his original purpose. Now that he heard me mention it again, he remembered the purpose of this time. If he didn't figure everything out this time and was punished in vain, he would be unlucky. Now that he knows the reason, he feels better. At least the punishment is not nothing. Didn't get it replaced.

Seeing that he seemed to understand, I said: "I know you were angry at first because you felt that my order gave the Japanese a chance and cost us an opportunity to take back Fulcrum City. I was right. Bar?"

"Yes." I, Cricket, nodded and said, "We were almost on the wall of Fulcrum City, but the God of War suddenly ordered a retreat. My mood at the time was really..."

"I can understand your feelings, but I don't agree with your behavior. Regardless of whether our decision is wrong, as the commander of the legion, you have the obligation to obey orders, and you actually tried to disobey the order. If it weren't for the God of War, With high-level command authority, our guild may suffer a big loss this time. I didn’t punish you afterwards, but I didn’t expect you to come to the door yourself. Who do you think I’m going to punish you for?”

When I heard what I said, I felt very depressed. After working for a long time, he had already escaped death before, but he insisted on hitting the gun with his head straight. Isn't this looking for death? "That...I..."

"Okay, stop talking. The punishment has been punished, and I don't want to hold you responsible for other things. In order to convince you, I will make an exception and explain this matter to you clearly. Although you have captured part of the city wall at that time, Masamoto Matsumoto and the three Japanese angels also arrived in the city. The special team that broke into the city at that time had all been killed. As long as they recover, your advantage on the city wall can be reversed in the blink of an eye. And . At that time, Masamoto Matsumoto's Ghost Dragon Society brought 200,000 troops to kill you from behind, did you know?"

I, Cricket Pigeon, nodded and said, "I know."

"You know that you still charge? You are attacked from both sides and you are attacking this city?"

"I was thinking that since I already had the upper hand, I might as well work hard and capture the Fulcrum City in one go. Then..."

"And then the Japanese cooperated internally and externally to snatch them back?" I interrupted my words: "Just now I was worried that the punishment was too severe, but now it seems that it is not severe at all. Think about what you looked like at that time How do you look like a legion commander? You are just a loser gambler, always thinking that as long as you bet on a bigger one, you will definitely win back all the previous bets. Give it a try? You can't think of it. At that time We have simulated the battle situation using a sand table, but the result is that you were about to capture the Fulcrum City when your forces were exhausted and ultimately failed to capture the Fulcrum City. Even if there was an error in the calculation, you finally gained the right to occupy the Fulcrum City. But you definitely didn’t have much troops left at that time. The Japanese were fighting on the mainland and could quickly gather troops to launch a counterattack. However, our guild’s troops were far away from home, and re-mobilizing reinforcements would not be able to catch up with the next Battle of Fulcrum City. In the end The city will still be lost, but the only difference is that we can still save some of our troops by retreating early. Fighting to the end, although we can occupy the city for a while, will destroy our last bit of strength in Japan."

I have said so much, and I finally understand something. Occupying a city can only be profitable if it is occupied for a long time. If a city is occupied by two guilds, you and I go back and forth for three days and five days, then both guilds will not be able to get even one copper in the city. benefit. Therefore, even if the Sixth Army can occupy Fulcrum City, it will be taken back by the Japanese in the subsequent battle. This process will not benefit us at all. On the contrary, by retreating in advance like now, at least those troops will be saved. And as long as this force exists and cooperates with the troops brought by our guild from the mainland to attack from both sides, the chances of capturing Fulcrum City again will be greater than now.

Taking a step back, even if the surviving troops cannot capture the Fulcrum City again, having such a troop squatting on the Japanese mainland can at least prevent the Japanese from being too arrogant. After all, although this troop lacks offensive strength, if they want to defend, Still quite powerful. This kind of existence effect is far more valuable than pulling this unit directly to fight the Japanese. As a cricket who can rise to the rank of commander of the Sixth Army, I can still understand this.

"I……!"

"You don't need to say it. I know you understood your mistake, but you failed to understand it on the battlefield. As a legion commander, being unable to make accurate judgments on the battlefield is already a serious problem. , the key is that you still try to resist after the superiors gave orders, which is absolutely intolerable. Therefore, removing you from the post of legion commander will not be unfair to you at all."

I, Cricket, nodded dejectedly and said, "I understand, that's what the president said!"

"As long as you understand, you can leave now."

I, Cricket Pigeon, nodded, and then walked towards the door dejectedly. The guard captain opened the door for him, then followed him out of the conference hall and took the door up.

After the door was closed again, the eagle suddenly asked: "Is this punishment too severe?" In fact, the eagle had wanted to say it before, but because I, the cricket dove, was present at the time, the eagle never spoke. Even if you want to plead for him, you must not let him hear it, otherwise it will only have the opposite effect and make the punishment meaningless.

I turned to look at the eagle and said, "Although his punishment was indeed too severe from the perspective of the damage caused this time and the starting point of the matter, what I said was not entirely wrong. He did have disobedience. Moreover, he cannot judge the battlefield clearly, so he is not suitable for being a legion commander."

Hongyue turned around and dug out a bunch of materials from the cabinet on the wall of the conference room. Then she took out a few volumes and returned to her seat. She scanned a few lines and then said: "I joined the meeting relatively early, and it belongs to A senior officer who rose through the ranks based on merit. I think his abilities are not suitable for being a commander, and his impulsive personality is more like being a commando."

I nodded and said: "This is an issue of internal adjustment within the guild. Let's discuss the issues between Japan and Russia first. Military God, you can start."

Following my reminder, the light in the room quickly dimmed, and then a three-dimensional map of the China-Russia border emerged. Then the God of War began to explain with the various cursors flashing on the map: "Now let me tell you about the intensive reconnaissance in the past few days. From the map we can see..."

The content of the military god's explanation is actually the deployment of Russian troops in the recent period. Although we were driven all the way back from the country, the Russian troops did not leave our border. On the one hand, they were afraid that we would invade their country, and on the other hand, they were unwilling to make a comeback and invade our country again. Of course, these are the ideas of the Russians. As for us, no matter how they arrange it, the most important thing is to "feel" their arrangement clearly first. The so-called knowing ourselves and our enemies means we can win a hundred battles. We must first figure out the deployment of Russian troops. Then we can advance, attack, retreat or defend. It all depends on what we want to do.

When we were discussing intelligence on Russia, Masamoto Matsumoto on the Japanese side had also sat at the conference table with the presidents of the Japanese guilds. However... unlike the previous situation in the conference hall, the meeting location this time was moved to the square of Fulcrum City, and there were huge crowds of Japanese players standing around. The reason why I chose such a location was entirely to disgust those Japanese guild presidents.

In the previous meeting, the presidents of the Japanese guilds fully demonstrated the shameless limit of what one person can do, so this time Matsumoto Masamoto set the meeting location in such an 'open' place, and also specially asked People assume that magic projection equipment can directly amplify the meeting screen and everyone's voices and project them into the air, so that Japanese players in the city can hear their voices and see their actions. In this way, those Japanese guild presidents Even if I wanted to be shameless, I would be too embarrassed to say it. For politicians, they can do anything in private, but they must show a bright and positive image in front of the public, so no one dares to do shameless things in such public meetings. Of course, reasonable requirements can still be fought for, but the operability is much worse.

In fact, ever since Matsumoto Masaka's special envoy signed the previous Fulcrum City exchange agreement with these presidents, Matsumoto Masaka has already taken the initiative. Those presidents have no qualifications to bargain with Matsumoto Masaka, so even if they are not here Those guys can't do anything about meetings in public places. Masamoto Matsumoto's insistence on holding a meeting in such a place was purely to cause trouble for them and to disgust them.

"Matsumoto-kun, the meeting location has been arranged as you said. If you have anything to say, just tell me." The representative of the Japan Guild President said with some frustration.

Masamoto Matsumoto glanced at the group of gloomy presidents below, and felt happy for no reason. He had been bullied badly by these guys before, and he finally got some relief.

"Okay, now that it's been decided, I'll say it." Masamoto Matsumoto took out a crystal ball and then projected a huge map of Japan into the air. "As you have seen, this is a map of Japan. The remaining Chinese troops are currently evacuating southward, and some members of our Ghost Dragon Society are driving them southward, but the Chinese troops have not suffered many casualties after all. So our The situation is not optimistic.”

"What are you talking about, President Matsumoto? Haven't we already taken control of Fulcrum City?" one president asked.

Matsumoto Masaga explained: "The Fulcrum City is only a strategic location. Its location is only very important. It cannot be used to summarize the entire war situation in Japan just because it is important. In fact, the battle is ultimately about people. Obtaining the Fulcrum City is very important for us." It just provides an important fulcrum for our future battles, which will make our battles easier. But even if it is easier, it is limited. In the end, the battle still depends on people. The Chinese will withdraw now Killing this force that was supposed to attack Fulcrum City is actually not a good thing for us. On the contrary, they have preserved their strength, which is very detrimental to our future development."

"Isn't today's battle because we drove the Chinese away?" someone asked.

"No, at least not entirely." Masamoto Matsumoto replied: "Although the Chinese troops suffered a lot of casualties, most of them were cannon fodder troops. The real main force did not suffer a serious blow. If they really want to fight, , they actually still had hope of occupying Fulcrum City. However, the Chinese retreated."

“Wouldn’t it be good for the Chinese to retreat?”

"Yes, not good. This is what I am most worried about. If the Chinese fight hard, even if they occupy Fulcrum City, they will never be able to hold it. In the end, we will still have to take it back, and the Chinese will be completely Loss of troops in our country, so that if they want to attack us in the future, they will have to fight across the sea. But today it seems that the situation is very bad. The Chinese are too sensible. They found that even if they won after the war, they would not be able to control Fulcrum City, so We immediately changed our strategy and gave up the storm. Although we saved Fulcrum City, we left a time bomb in the country. These remaining Chinese troops can stab us at a critical moment at any time, and we will have to deal with this for a long time. Garrisoning troops to keep an eye on them, this attrition will severely hinder our development."

"Then what should we do now?" someone asked.

"This is the key issue I want to talk about." Matsumoto congratulated him.
