Chapter 653 Launch [Hammer Operation] 4
"Very good." Mond nodded with a smile, "that is, this expedition plan is completely feasible from an economic perspective."
After saying that, Mond turned sideways, looked directly at Dominic, and asked Dominic, who was very unfavorable to him:
"Master Dominic, you just said--you are not sure to command such a large army, you are not sure to break the Avalon Fortress, right?"
"That's right. If the combat troops only have 300,000, it will be impossible to break through the Avalon Fortress."
"Martyr Dominic, I don't understand if you say that."
Mond touched his short beard and continued in a sarcastic tone:
"In that 'typhoon offensive' three years ago, you led an army of 200,000 to attack the Britannian Empire."
"The forces of the Knights of Michael at that time were as strong as you, and they were 200,000."
"However - in this typhoon offensive, not only were most of the soldiers of the Knights of Michael who were killed by you, but even the commander and deputy commander of the Knights of Michael who were killed and killed in this offensive, almost breaking the Avalon Fortress."
"And now you will have an army of 300,000, and the total strength of the Knights of Michael is now only 120,000."
"Three years ago, you could use 200,000 people to give the Knights of Michael, who are also 200,000 people. Then why can't you defeat 120,000 people now with 300,000 people?"
The "Typhoon" offensive - a large-scale invasion attack by the Holy Hillan Empire against the Britannian Empire three years ago.
This battle was called the "Typhoon" offensive by the Holy Hillan Empire.
On the other hand, the Britannian Empire is called "the 288th defense battle against the North."
The head coach of this large-scale invasion offensive, named "Typhoon", was Dominic.
It was in this battle that the Knights of Michael were severely damaged.
The 200,000 army was beaten to only 70,000 people, and the commander and deputy commander of the Michael Knights were both killed in battle.
It was not until a year ago that the Britannian Empire finally took out his energy to rebuild the Michael Knights. Su Cheng took over as the leader of the Michael Knights and became the 30th Michael Knights. The Michael Knights have finally recovered their vitality now.
Dominic doesn't like Mond, and Mond doesn't like Dominic either.
In Mond's eyes, Dominic, who always sings opposite to him, has always been a thorn in his eyes.
Therefore, in the questioning of Dominic just now, the words were full of sharp thorns.
Dominic naturally heard that there was a thorn in Mond's words, but Dominic still endured the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice to Mond:
"The reason why the 'typhoon' offensive three years ago achieved such an impressive result was because the leader of the Michael Knights at that time was incompetent!"
"He was too confident in the defense ability of the Avalon Fortress, so the frequent use of the orders caused the Knights of Michael to suffer such great losses!"
"But it's different now!"
"The Knights of Michael have now replaced a new regiment commander to manage and command!"
"Although the total strength of the Knights of Michael is not as good as that of three years ago, it is all because of the intention of the new regiment commander!"
"Although the total strength is not as good as 3 years ago, I am sure that the combat power of the Knights of Michael is definitely far higher than that of 3 years ago!"
"Not to mention 300,000, even if you dispatch 500,000 people, you may not be able to defeat the current Knights of Michael! Crack the current Avalon Fortress!"
"So - Your Majesty! This expedition must not be implemented! To launch an expedition against the Britannian Empire, at least we have to wait until our country's national strength accumulates, and until the current leader of the Knights of Michael resigns or dies!"
"The current commander of the Knights of Michael?" said Mond, "If I remember correctly, the current commander of the Knights of Michael is the strange name. Su Cheng, who is only 19 years old this year, isn't it?"
Speaking of this, Mond changed into the sarcastic tone that had just been, and then asked Dominic:
"Master Dominic, in your words - aren't you the opponent of Su Cheng?"
Mond wanted to mock Dominic for some reason, but Dominic admitted directly without hesitation:
"That's right! Although I don't want to admit it, if I really fight him head-on, I'm really not the opponent of this young man!"
Dominic's words made everyone present, including Wahiri and Mond, look surprised.
And Dominic continued:
"Since Su Cheng took over as the head of the Knights of Michael, I have studied him seriously."
“He is a real genius!”
"In the face of talent, experience is not worth mentioning!"
"Although my military experience is dozens of times that of him and my combat experience is hundreds of times that of him, I am not sure that I can beat him!"
"If I start a war on the vast plain, even if I hold an army of 300,000, I may not be a match for Su Cheng, who has 120,000 Micale Knights."
"I'm not sure about confronting head-on on the plains, so don't say you want me to attack the Avalon Fortress headed by Su Cheng!"
"His Majesty!"
Speaking of this, Dominic turned his head and said to Wahiri:
"Your Majesty has always been thinking about expeditioning to the Britannian Empire, and has always been thinking about how to taste the fruits of victory after the expedition."
"But have you ever thought about what the consequences would be if this expedition failed?!"
"If an expedition of this scale fails, it is very likely to lead to the demise of our country!"
"The country that perished due to a failed expedition without wisdom and ingenuity - there are many such countries in history!"
Dominic's unpleasant advice angered Vahiri, who had always hoped to expedition to the Britannian Empire, annex the northern border, and achieved great achievements that were unprecedented and unparalleled.
Wahiri, whose face was flushed with anger, stood up from the throne and glared at Dominic: "Master Dominic! What did you say?!"
When everyone present was worried about angering the Emperor Dominic, Mond suddenly said:
"Your Majesty, please calm down."
After being advised by Mond, who had always been favored by him, Vahiri took a few breaths, hummed heavily, and then sat back on the throne.
But he was still glaring at Dominic.
After Wahiri recovered from calm, Mond cleared his throat:
"Everyone here should know that war requires grasping the timing."
"And I think - now is a great time to start a war against the Britannian Empire!"
"At the beginning of this year, we achieved a great victory in the Far East! We achieved an impressive record of 50,000 enemies!"
"This inspiring victory has made the whole army of our empire very proud."
"We can now take advantage of the remaining power of this great victory to attack the Britannian Empire!"
"And there is another very important reason why I support the southward attack on the Britannian Empire!"
"No need to say, everyone present should know that, right? Since Gozevin ascended the throne, the Britannian Empire has recovered its national strength at an extremely fast speed. The recovery speed in recent years has been even more terrifying."
"Although Gozewen does not have outstanding governing ability, he has the courage to boldly use people and the amazing mind of using people without doubt."
"Under his rule, a group of outstanding civil and military officials gathered."
"Wen has Jacob and Bancrot."
"Wu You Isel, Albert and the Su Cheng who has just emerged in the past two years."
"With the help of these outstanding subordinates, although I don't want to admit it, the national strength of the Britannian Empire is indeed increasing day by day!"
"If we don't find a way to curb the Britannian Empire! The status of our 'superpower' in the Holy Hillan Empire will be out of control!"
"The entire continent may return to the era when the Britannian Empire was dominant 200 years ago!"
"And this expedition plan is an excellent action to curb the development of the Britannian Empire!"
"As long as you can defeat the Knights of Michael! Crack the Fortress of Avalon! Annex the northern border! The national strength of the Britannian Empire will decline greatly! Stop the rise of the Britannian Empire!"
"If possible, I would also like to launch a conquest against the Britannian Empire in a few years, after our country's national strength has accumulated for a while!"
"But-time doesn't allow us to do this!"
"If the Britannian Empire is really launched in a few years, the national strength of the Britannian Empire will be stronger than it is now!"
"Bretany's Empire will be even harder to defeat then!"
"So--we must launch a conquest against the Britannian Empire now! Crack the Avalon Fortress! Annex the Northern Territory! Interrupt the rise of the Britannian Empire!"
Mond's words are reasonable and convincing.
Even after hearing Mond's words, Dominic had to admit that Mond's words made sense.
Many generals who had firmly opposed the expedition here flashed with hesitation after hearing Mond's words.
After hearing Mond's words, Vahiri looked excited.
"Well said! My dear!"
Excessively excited, Vahiri stood up and patted Mond on the shoulder.
"As Mondqing said, the Britannian Empire has now reached the point where it cannot be curbed!"
"So--I have decided! The 'Harst' battle is officially launched! The southern expedition of the Britannian Empire!"
"The mobilization will begin today!"
"Dominic, I will be relieved only if I handed over this army to you, the First Marshal of the Empire."
"Please help me! Dominic! I believe - as long as we unite, we can definitely defeat that Su Cheng! Crack the Avalon Fortress!"
At the same time, Mond's words made Wahili's determination to conquer the Britannian Empire in the south even more determined.
Maybe I didn't want to discuss it any more, so I didn't even have any extra discussion or discussion. I directly announced the launch of the hammer operation and began a general mobilization today.
Dominic opened his mouth and wanted to say something else.
But in the end, I chose to close my mouth.
Because Dominic discovered that no matter how he persuaded him now, he might not be able to persuade him to do his own thing and insisted on conquering the Britannian Empire, Wahili turned around.
"Since Your Majesty said that, the official had to accept the order and...to be left to fate..."
