Arknights is too real, right?

The Central Army of the Victoria Empire is known as the trump card among trump cards, and it is the military district that consumes the most military expenditures every year among the four major military regions.

In addition to sophisticated equipment and excellent quality, the Central Army also has a top-notch combat command team.

In this battle, every Victoria soldier knew the significance of this crusade.

This war was to bring an end to the dark age experienced a year ago, and to appease the souls of those who died as a result of the war.

The war is cruel. Among those who died were soldiers from the Southern Military Region, soldiers from the Central Army, infected people, and ordinary people.

Although the Togoku Sakura Take family was not the mastermind of the civil strife, their secret collusion with former military chief Frey also killed many people in disguise.

Therefore, for the soldiers of the Central Army, this battle is a just crusade!

In this way, with all aspects of command, supplies, communications, and morale fully stretched, the combat effectiveness of the Victoria Army reached an unprecedented height.

In just one night, the combat command team led by the Commander-in-Chief of the Central Military Forces determined the attack plan.

Based on the intelligence returned by Penguin Logistics and the surveyed terrain of Dongzhou, the headquarters divided the six reorganized divisions of the Central Army into three groups and marched into Dongzhou simultaneously from the central plain, the southern coast, and the northern mountains.

At the same time, the Central Military Special Forces Brigade will also directly penetrate into the interior through airborne means to conduct surprise attacks on the enemy's supply lines, intelligence dissemination and other aspects.

In order to quickly disintegrate the enemy army, the headquarters is already planning to behead the head of the Sakurawu family.

However, the extremely risky beheading operation was stopped by Xia Feng.

Because he knew very well that as long as Ying Wulan's whereabouts were not determined, beheading would be almost impossible to achieve.

In front of a true master like Ying Wulan who reached the pinnacle and could be called a pervert, the elite soldiers sent to assassinate him committed suicide.

Because Yinhui's troops were still besieged in the rear of Dongzhou, the Central Army's combat plan was completed overnight.

Early the next morning, 120,000 troops left the south coast.

The army was divided into three groups according to the designated plan. After all were in position, they launched a general attack at the same time.

When Xi Gong Ling, who was belatedly arriving, found Xia Feng accompanied by his escort, the murderous Central Army had already left the south coast.

In the courtyard of the cherry blossom forest.

Xi Gong Ling stood in front of Xia Feng with a complicated expression. His face was a little pale because he had just experienced the shocking scene of the Central Army's attack.

"Your Excellency Xia Feng."

"kindness?"

Xia Feng did not listen to what Xi Gong Ling was talking to, but was sorting things out carefully.

He first re-tied his shoelaces, then fastened his trousers, and hung the sheathed Shenyue Sword on his waist.

Seeing Xia Feng's busy look, Xi Gong Ling swallowed his saliva and finally couldn't help but say.

"Your Excellency Xia Feng, why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Xia Feng turned his head while wearing his coat.

"What did I say to you?"

"Tell me you can mobilize the Victoria Army, if you had told me earlier"

Xia Feng interrupted Xi Gong Ling's words.

"You misunderstood. I have no right to mobilize the Victoria Army. I just told the King of Victoria what happened in Xichuan. As for sending troops, it was a unanimous decision made by the top officials of the empire."

"But you"

"And it's not like I didn't tell you."

Xi Gong Ling's mood was very complicated and he said doubtfully.

"What?"

After Xia Feng put on her coat, she finally wrapped the red scarf around her neck.

"Didn't I tell you before that the Sakurawu family will never be able to capture Nishikawa in this dispute? Now, I am just fulfilling this promise."

Upon hearing this answer, Nisigong Ling clenched his fists and was speechless.

When things developed to this point, Xi Gong Ling had already felt a faint sense of worry.

Of course, this worry is far less severe than the previous threat from the Sakura Warriors and the exploitation from the Longmen direction.

However, this still made him a little uneasy, and at the same time he felt a strong sense of powerlessness.

After seeing the well-equipped Victoria regular army, the Nishimiya family seemed to have lost their right to speak and their position in this dispute.

The significance of this war has been pushed to a whole new level, so high that Nisigong Ling can no longer interpret it or predict the outcome.

As the head of the family, as the master of Xichuan, he was very torn.

In a daze, he suddenly remembered what his uncle Nishimiya Ryuhei once said when he was young.

[If the head of the Nishinomiya family regards Nishikawa as a treasure, then he needs to eliminate competitors by any means. But if the head of the Nishinomiya family regards Nishikawa as a responsibility, then he needs to protect it with his life, because existence itself is greater than possession. 】

This is what Nishimiya Ryuhei once said, and it is also the belief in life that he has always implemented as the number one military commander in his family.

Nishimiya Ryuhei has never been a family head in his life, but his status is above that of a family head.

Recalling these words, Xi Gong Ling's clenched fists gradually loosened.

Yes, an item can only be owned if it exists, but existence does not mean ownership.

When necessary, make the right choice between being and having.

At this moment, Nishigong Ling felt that his previous thoughts were ridiculous. At the time of Nishikawa's survival, he was still worried about whether he would lose his ownership rights.

What was he doing when millions of people in Xichuan believed in him, sent people to provide food, and took the Nishinomiya family as their master?

"Ah."

Standing in the courtyard, Xi Gong Ling burst into laughter of self-deprecation and relief.

He figured it out and felt relaxed.

If it weren't for Xia Feng, he would probably have looked the same as he hated him as a child until Xichuan was crushed.

I am lucky to get it, but I am losing my life. He does not necessarily need to have it. As long as Xichuan still exists, that is enough.

Raising his head, Xi Gong Ling looked at Xia Feng with firm eyes.

"Your Excellency Xia Feng, please tell me what you need me to do next."

After packing up his luggage, Xia Feng finally put the Red Demon Sword behind his back and replied seriously.

"Don't die."

Xi Gong Ling was stunned.

"Ah? What did you say?"

Xia Feng took two steps forward and patted his shoulder gently.

"As long as the war is not over, there is no absolutely safe place. Protect yourself and your family and don't die."

"oh oh."

After preparing everything, Xia Feng assigned the final task to the Black Feather members gathered in the yard.

"Snow Monster Team, protect Shuangxing and Ifrit, follow the main force of the Central Army to the main battlefield, and use large-scale spells to cooperate in the battle."

The Snow Monster Team and Frost Star nodded seriously.

"good."

"Well, be careful."

Ifrit rolled up her sleeves, her face full of excitement.

"Hehehe, leave it to me, my lord. The last night attack was not satisfying at all. This time, let me burn all those bugs to ashes!"

At this time, an old voice came from outside the hospital.

"Xiao, let's go together too."

Xia Feng heard the sound and looked over, only to see Xiao Yunye wearing plain clothes and carrying a simple long sword, standing upright at the gate.

"Master Xiao, are you injured?"

Xiao Yunye shook his head lightly.

"Don't worry, my injuries have basically healed. It's okay. This girl Ifrit is neither serious nor serious. The front line is in chaos. I won't worry if I don't follow her."
