Allen stuffed enough bread into his mouth randomly and filled his stomach with ease.

After saying casually, "I'm out", Allen got up and left the dining table, preparing to go to the palace.

On a wall, the only way from the dining table to the door of the house, is a portrait of Allen's mother.

Every time he saw his mother's portrait, Allen would stop unconsciously and quietly look at his mother's smiling face on the portrait.

Since being named a noble by Emperor Xiade, every time Alan saw his mother's portrait, he would involuntarily think of:

——Mother...will you feel happy after seeing me become a noble using such means...will you feel proud...

...

...

The Frankish Empire, the Imperial Dublu, the Imperial Palace, the rooms of the Shade.

Knock, knock, knock.

There was a regular knock on the door outside the door.

The knock on the door made Emperor Xia De, who was immersed in the sea of ​​books, escape from the sea of ​​books.

"Come in!"

After obtaining Xia De's entry permit, the door was pushed open.

Erwin, the prime minister of the Frank Empire, pushed open the door and walked slowly into Xiade's room.

"Your Majesty." After Erwin bowed to Emperor Xiade, he found Emperor Xiade sitting at the desk, looking at a book with a blank cover.

"Your Majesty..." Erwin couldn't help but frowned slightly, "Are you... reading that book again?"

"Yeah." Xia De nodded vigorously with a smile on his face, "After all, this set of books is really great, and I can get new results every time I read it."

"As long as I keep watching and studying hard, I will definitely gain more! Govern this country better!"

Looking at Shade in front of him, Elvin couldn't help feeling a little complicated...

A few months ago, their first spy in the Frank Empire, Eber, successfully completed the task assigned to him by Shade, and stole the blank cover book that Ilsa had been watching from the White House of the Britannian Empire.

After the book arrived in Belle safely, Shade was both happy and sad.

Xia De was happy that he could finally see the true appearance of this strange book that was said to teach people how to govern the country.

What's sad is that his confidant, Eber, the first spy in the Frank Empire, paid the price of his life to successfully steal the book.

Eber, who had given his life, didn't even have the chance to return home.

After all, transporting a corpse back to China - the difficulty of this is not very great.

Therefore, the remaining spies lurking around Pandragon could only bury Eber in an inconspicuous place outside Pandragon.

Even a tombstone could not help Ebert.

Eber's loyalty, Eber's ability, Shade and the ministers of the Central Committee are obvious to all.

After learning that Eber was dead in a foreign country, Shade was so sad that he cried bitterly.

However - after browsing the blank cover book, Shade's sadness arose due to Eber's death was slightly diluted by the joy.

Because Xia De discovered that this set of books can really teach people how to govern the country.

The various strange stories recorded in it really contain many principles of governing the country.

Every time I read it, Xia De benefited a lot.

Xia De believes that as long as he continues to study this set of books, he will know more and more principles of governing the country, and he will be able to better govern the Frank Empire.

So - Xia De, who has been obsessed with this set of books, has been obsessed with this set of books over the past few months.

I read this set of books whenever I have time.

Erwin always felt that Shade's approach of being addicted to this set of books was a bit wrong.

He also advised Xia De many times not to spend too much time on this set of books.

But... Xia De didn't listen to his advice at all...

"Ervin, suddenly looking for me, what's wrong?"

"Your Majesty, the generals are all here."

"...Okay." Xia De closed the book in his hand with a calm face, "Let's go. Don't let the generals wait in a hurry."

...

...

Since the Nibelungen plan ended in a crushing defeat, only three generals of the Frank Empire remained.

The three generals are - Alan von Jones, Erich von Marceyu, and Rudolph von Baumann.

After the Nibelungan plan to be defeated and the three generals led by Walter were killed, the Frank Empire originally had five generals.

But these five generals died of illness three years ago and two years ago.

This has made the current situation of "short top generals and officials" in the Frank Empire even worse.

The only three generals in the Frankish Empire gathered in a secret conference room in the Berlu Palace.

There are only 5 people in this secret conference room - Emperor Xia De, Prime Minister Erwin, and the only three remaining generals in the empire.

After everyone came, Emperor Xia De, who had a solemn face, said in a deep voice:

"Everyone, you should all know what the purpose of my call to you today."

"If the Britannian Empire and the Holy Hiran Empire launch a clamping attack on our country at the same time, how much will our country have to win?"

"I ask you this question with pain, and I hope that you, as Franks and generals of the Frank army, can answer my question honestly."

After saying this, Xia De was silent.

Prime Minister Erwin, who was sitting next to him, was also silent.

They were waiting for Allen and their answers.

The three generals led by Allen looked at each other for a while.

Then - Rudolph took the lead in sighing and said:

"Your Majesty...If the Britannia Empire and the Holy Hillan Empire devote their national strength to launch an invasion on our country... our country... has little chance of victory..."

"The chance of winning is slim" - after saying this, it seemed as if Rudolph had used all his strength.

After saying this, Rudolph closed his eyes as if he was extremely tired.

Alan and Erich, who were sitting beside him, also looked at their noses and their hearts, and remained silent.

Both of them agreed with Rudolph’s words just now.

They were all generals of the Frank Empire who had been tempered by blood and fire.

The judgment at the military level is naturally much more accurate and sharper than that of ordinary people.

Their judgments were surprisingly consistent about the question of "what is the chance of winning in the Frank Empire in the face of the attacks between the Britannian Empire and the Holy Hillan Empire" - the odds of winning were almost no.

Although Emperor Xiade had long guessed the answer that Allen and the others would say, after hearing them say "the chances of winning are slim", Emperor Xiade couldn't help feeling heavy as if a big stone was stuffed into his chest.

“…Then, the next question.”

Xia De said in a deep voice.

"If the Britannian Empire and the Holy Hillan Empire devote their national strength to launch an attack on our country, then how should we fight to increase our chances of victory as much as possible."

"General Alan von Jones, I want to hear your thoughts first."
