Chapter 1533

Snow Country Fortress is surrounded by tension and excitement.

Although there are many people who are arrogant about their hard-to-attack and unstoppable performance, everyone knows the strength of the Dark Continent Empire.

If it concentrates its forces from many fronts, its combat power can easily exceed [-].

Although the initial report said it was around [-], based on past experience, no one in the headquarters thought that was the full combat power.

A plain room with chess pieces hanging on a white wall without decoration, and only a long black table.

In this combat conference room, Xia Hou and eight staff members are gathering together.

The new chief of staff read the report again.

"──I'm afraid, we will be able to see the Dark Continent Imperial Army tomorrow morning."

The young general stood up and said, "Our Snow Country Fortress is impregnable! Kick them all away!"

"That's right! That's right!"

"No matter how tens of thousands of people come from the empire, it is impossible to touch even a hair in our Snow Country Fortress!"

Others also got angry.

Xia Houna clasped his arms silently.

Just kept listening to the staff talking.

After a long time, he said: "I didn't get any information that the imperial army was gathering. There was no report that the city wall was being rebuilt. Judging by the size of the city wall, it is impossible to mobilize more than [-] people. In this way It seems that there is something going on in that empire, maybe it is something about the royal family or nobles...Although you can't be careless...but there is no need to panic."

I see.The staff members nodded yes.

The uneasiness caused by the powerful empire's attack caused several people to be brave verbally, but they regained their calmness from the veteran's words.

The Chief of Staff asked, "Commander, how should I respond?"

"First of all, we must grasp the enemy's situation correctly."

"Understood. Then, let's send people on horseback to investigate. We can get information on the enemy army in an hour."

"give it to you"

The chief of staff immediately gave instructions to his subordinates who were standing behind.

Other aides also followed up and said: "Immediately go to the cannon inspection that was originally scheduled for next week."

"Umm"

"I'm going to get the soldiers ready for battle"

"I'll check the outer wall"

According to their respective responsibilities, the aides began to act.

When all the staff started to act, Xia Hou stopped a staff member.

"How about the cavalry unit a few days ago?"

"...Still, the news is unknown. Sure enough, it was attacked by barbarians. After that, although a search force of 500 people was sent there twice, the body was still not found."

"Is that so... It's a pity, but after this battle is over, let's send a death notice and condolence money to their families."

"Obey!"

The staff stood at attention and raised one hand in salute.

After turning to the right with the heel as an axis, he trotted out of the conference room.

Xia Hou stayed alone.

“…………”

At the end of last year, the fourth princess was defeated in a duel in the Walled City, and the fourth princess became a veritable commander. This rumor also spread to him.

Although the black knight is famous for his bravery, he is also the earl of the empire after all, and it is impossible to face the royal family with swords.It is acceptable to think so.

Then, there is this expedition.

Was it driven by the clumsy ambition of a young and unworldly princess?

Or is it for other reasons?
Regardless of the reason, he did not think that the preparations for this expedition could be higher than those of the expedition so far.

Xia Hou stood up from his seat and went to the cafeteria at the usual time, and the chefs also served him the usual meals.
