Chapter 1181: Chapter 1174: Debate Before the Attack

"Oh, the Maniken organization does not allow us to reveal their identities," Saiye explained.

"Mr. Car, we warmly welcome you to join our great cause of revenge," Pelas said, nodding slightly.

"I am deeply honored," Car said with a smile.

"Fredel, this gentleman will be your military advisor, providing military assistance for your operations. I hope you understand that our enemies are the heavily armed people of Otherworld, and they are not easy to deal with," Saiye introduced.

"Hmm," Fredel snorted disdainfully upon hearing his words, "The people of Otherworld are not to be feared. In the past war, they were beaten to a point of losing all their gear. If it weren’t for their surrender, they would have been completely annihilated by us."

"Blindness can be fatal, Mr. Fredel," Car said, looking at him with a cold laugh.

"What right do you have to say such a thing?" Fredel’s sneer grew even stronger as he pointed at Car and said, "What right do you have to criticize us? When you were surrendering, you did not even have a hint of shame on your faces, as if surrendering with both hands was as easy as eating and sleeping for you. You are even worse than the black-haired Shani people and the rude Ross people, who fought desperately for their brothers and held their ground until death!"

"You!" Car was so enraged that he stared fiercely.

"Alright, everyone, with the great battle imminent, we should not cause discord at this critical moment. Commander Fredel, please just listen to Mr. Car’s advice to avoid any trouble," Saiye said, stepping forward to smooth things over.

"Hmm, I do not wish to waste time on such trivial matters," Car snorted coldly, then turned to Saiye and said, "Tell us about your plan!"

"We plan to assemble heavy forces and make a forced march to take Lipei quickly. Once we can enter the city and blend in with those commoners, the Otherworld people will not dare to attack easily, and we can use this to threaten them and force them to agree to our demands," Saiye said succinctly.

"Assembling heavy forces to take Lipei, who advised you on this? He must be a spy for the enemy!" Car exclaimed in surprise upon hearing Saiye’s words.

"What do you mean, you can express dissatisfaction with my plan, but why accuse me of being a spy?" Fulanta burst out again with his well-practiced acting, pointing at Car angrily.

"Fulanta, please calm down," Saiye said, comforting Fulanta while turning to explain to Car, "Mr. Car, rest assured, Fulanta is our steadfast and reliable friend, not our enemy, and we all share the common enemy."

Hearing his words, Car looked at him suspiciously, then took a deep breath and continued, furrowing his brows and said, "Our current plan should be to disperse these forces, attack the Lipei villages from all sides to exhaust the Shani people, thereby forcing them to surrender."

It must be said, Car, with his background as a CIA agent, quickly perceived the dilemma currently facing Lipei. Continuing to harass the Lipei jurisdiction like he suggested would surely bring pain to headquarters.

"Now there are no targets left to harass in Lipei district, the Otherworld people have gathered all the villagers under the city, leaving us with no targets to threaten," Pelas said.

"Then let’s prolong the war. When they release the people, we start the harassment until the Shani people submit," Car said.

"What a joke, how long will it take for my wife and daughter’s deaths to be avenged if we drag this out? I disagree!" Fulanta jumped out once again, vehemently performing.

"Sir, please calm down. Haste solves nothing and might even backfire," Car said, frowning as he sized him up.

"Calm down? When you have to watch your wife and daughter die in front of you, you’ll understand how desperate hatred can make you. I wish I could attack Lipei right now and kill those who murdered my wife and children!" Fulanta said through gritted teeth.

Sometimes, his performance was so convincing that even he believed it. He had concocted a scenario in his head where Cheng Ziang had not spared him for being wrongfully accused, but had killed his wife and daughter before his eyes. Just the thought was enough to bring out natural expressions of fury without any need for acting.

"Is your wife and daughter really dead? Why do you always emphasize this?" Car asked indifferently.

Upon hearing his words, Fulanta hesitated for a moment, then a surge of inexplicable anger made him involuntarily draw his pistol, aiming it at Car, but fortunately, Saiye stopped him.

"Bang!"

He fired the pistol into the sky, emitting a loud noise. Had Saiye not intervened, that shot would have likely hit Car.

"Get out of the way, let me kill him!" Fulanta shouted angrily.

Several people rushed over to restrain him, wresting the pistol from his grasp. Saiye blocked him, comforting him patiently, "Calm down, calm down, Fulanta, calm down."

Finally managing to restrain Fulanta, Saiye sighed and then turned to Car, saying, "Mr. Car, please believe me, Fulanta’s wife and daughter truly died at the hands of the Otherworld people. It is a tragedy; please don’t question its authenticity anymore."

Why did Saiye believe Fulanta so adamantly? Naturally, because to some extent, the death of Fulanta’s family was tied to him, so he hardly ever doubted Fulanta’s identity.

Car squinted skeptically at Fulanta, then looked at Saiye, sighing, "Regardless, this plan of yours is indeed too risky."

"But now we have no other choice," Saiye said.

"Alright," Car nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "If you are intent on this, then you must do as I say. Gather forces over a hundred kilometers away from Lipei, while avoiding aerial reconnaissance. Then, execute a forced march, ideally reaching the outskirts of Lipei City at night and launching an attack. Should one aspect go wrong, you will face intense artillery fire from Lipei. For their artillery, such a dense grouping of troops is the ideal target, so, I suggest that you better split your forces..."

"We can’t split our forces!" Pelas interrupted him before he finished speaking.

He then explained the reason, "Lipei has already received reinforcements from Princess Melia’s army from Masya. If we divide our forces and encounter these units, we will surely be at a disadvantage. It’s best to gather together like a sharp arrow, piercing the enemy’s heart instantly."

"Gathering forces is to overcome defensive lines, splitting forces is to avoid strikes. You need to understand Earth’s method of combat, and not just shout slogans every chance you get!" Car said, somewhat helplessly.

"How does Commander Fredel see it?" Saiye looked at Fredel and asked.

"Thirty years ago, we had an encounter with the Shani and Ross people’s artillery. Though initially we were indeed under attack from the enemy’s cannon fire, as the cavalry approached their positions, these people began to panic, leaving only a few to block, while the rest fled in disarray. So I think, in war, speed decides everything. If our speed is fast enough, we might even conquer Lipei before the enemy’s shells land," Fredel said confidently with a smile.

"But can you guarantee the speed of the attack?" Car challenged.

"What do you mean, do you think we can’t execute a forced march and quickly capture Lipei?" Fredel’s face changed, and he asked coldly.

"I think not!" Car replied.

"Heh," Fredel sneered, moved closer to Car, and with a provocative smile said, "I’ve heard a bit about you Maniken people, you wish you had wheels on both legs. Once without wheels, relying only on your two legs, you can’t even run fast. Don’t treat your ridiculous norms as a normal occurrence; we are not like you."

"Fredel, I have been patient again and again, but you keep mocking, what exactly do you want?" Car was also infuriated, pointing at him and asking desperately.

"A defeated commander, what else is there to say, what right do you have to be an advisor?" Fredel asked mockingly.
