I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

"But... this is really too risky..."

Samira looked hesitant, and still seemed a little unsupportive of Delevingne.

"Needless to say, Lord Samira, I have made up my mind!"

Delevingne said in a deep voice,

"Come on!"

The guard guarding the door rushed in quickly, and cupped his hands at him,

"Master Consul!"

"Go, invite all the officers here, I want to hold an emergency military meeting."

Delevingne ordered.

"As ordered!"

The guards left quickly.

Not long after, officers of all sizes in the army followed Delevingne's instructions and came to his camp to attend the meeting.

When everyone fell down, someone curiously said,

"The Consul is in such a hurry that he summoned us all, and I don't know what happened."

Delevingne looked around at the crowd and said solemnly,
"I just received urgent news that the Dragon Kingdom army and the Anxi people have reached an alliance, and they will launch an attack on our department in the next few days."

As soon as this statement came out, the people in the camp were in a commotion.

Those who were able to attend this meeting were all important officers of the Third Corps.

They naturally understood what consequences this incident would bring to the Third Corps!
"If that's the case, we can only retreat!"

Someone stood up and offered to propose.

"Yes, we can only retreat."

"The Eighth and Ninth Corps have not yet arrived. With our strength, we absolutely cannot deal with attacks from two directions at the same time."

That person's proposal instantly won the approval of the others.

But although everyone expressed their opinions, the final decision still depends on Delevingne's choice.

So everyone's eyes turned to Delevingne again.

But seeing Delevingne smiled faintly, and said softly,
"I plan to lead the army across the Amu Darya River and take the initiative to attack the dragon army!"

Although his voice was soft, it was no less than hearing the sound of Longguo artillery nearby.

Everyone in the camp was in an uproar, and they all looked at Draven in disbelief.

It can be seen from the First Battle of Malakanda that the Dragon Army has a full elite army of more than 20.

Not only the combat effectiveness is amazing, but also advanced ordnance such as muskets and artillery.

It is impossible for the Guishuang army with the same strength to be the opponent of the Dragon Kingdom army, not to mention that there is only one regiment of them now.

"Don't panic."

Delevingne waved his hand to appease everyone,
"Miss Samira escaped from Malakanda by chance today and passed on important information to me."

After finishing speaking, he roughly talked about how Samira was tied to Malakanda and how she escaped, with the distribution map of the Dragon Empire's army.

After listening, the people who were originally commotion quieted down.

If this is the case, it is not impossible for them to cross the river to surprise the Dragon Kingdom army.

"Master Samira, can you ensure that what you said and this troop distribution map are true?"

Someone looked at Samira who was on the side.

"I can make sure!"

Samira nodded resolutely, but then sighed again,
"However, I'm afraid that there will be other changes in the Dragon Kingdom's army in the past few days, so I hope Lord Delevingne will be more cautious..."

"Lord Samira's kindness, I appreciate it."

Draven interrupted him,
"But how can there be no risk in marching and fighting?"

"In order to avoid changes in the Dragon Kingdom's army, we should seize this opportunity and blitz their army!"

"I am in charge of this battle. If there is any mistake, His Majesty will take responsibility for it, and I will bear it alone!"

"Do you have any objections?"

Draven's stern eyes looked at everyone present.

Now everyone is speechless.

After all, Draven is the consul of the Corps, and another person bears the responsibility for the defeat. What else can they do?
"We obey the orders of the consul!"

……

From the distribution map of troops brought back by Samira, it can be seen that the army sent by the people of Longguo to Khwarazmo has 8 troops.

In addition, another [-] troops went south and were stationed on the north bank of the Amu Darya.

All remaining troops stayed in Malacanda.

According to what Samira said, at the latest the Dragon Kingdom army in Malakanda will set out to join the Dragon Army on the north bank.

At that time, they will flank Draven with the Parthians according to the agreed time.

Because of this, Delevingne decided to cross the river tonight.

After all, there is only one day left for him.

"The 9 people in the Dragon Kingdom's army are divided into three divisions, left, middle and right, each with 3 people."

"Our regiment is divided into two groups, and they will attack the Dragon Kingdom's army on the left and right."

"Remember not to chase them, just break them up."

"No matter what the outcome of the battle is, we must gather before dawn to attack the Dragon Kingdom army in the middle."

"Understand?"

Draven shouted at the generals and asked in a deep voice.

"understand!"

The crowd responded in unison.

"Okay, let's get ready."

Draven waved at them after setting up the battle command.

After everyone left, Samira stepped forward, solemnly saying,
"Lord Delevingne, you will surely return in triumph!"

"I hope it's as you say."

Delevingne smiled wearily, then seemed to think of something, and said,

"Lord Samira, why don't you go back to Peshawar now, and report the recent events to His Majesty by the way."

Samira pondered for a moment, nodded and said,

"Alright."

"But before I go, I have a suggestion."

"Master Samira has something to say."

Delevingne laughed.

"The fiasco of Swain and Darius, the consuls in Malacanda, has dealt a huge blow to the morale of our army."

Samira said slowly,
"Master Delevingne took another risk tonight to cross the river and blitz the Dragon Kingdom army."

"Therefore, I suggest that for those soldiers who escaped from Malacanda, execute the law of eleven killings!"

The law of eleven killings was a means of collective punishment in the Roman legion for soldiers who rebelled or escaped on a large scale.

The punished troops will be drawn in groups of ten.

Those who are drawn will be stoned or clubbed to death by their peers.

The purpose of the Eleven Smash Law is very simple, to eliminate the panic and cowardice in the troops, deter the soldiers, and make them firm in their determination to fight.

However, under normal circumstances, this kind of punishment originally originated from the Roman legion was rarely carried out.

Delevingne didn't expect Samira to make such a suggestion suddenly, and was taken aback for a moment.

But after thinking for a while, a grin appeared on his face, and his eyes became bloodthirsty.

"You are very good! Just do as you say!"

After saying that, Delevingne strode out.

And Samira stood where she was, looking at his back, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.

He secretly said in his heart, His Majesty the God Emperor, I did my best.
