Captured alive by the devil, I would rather die than submit

"What kind of flag are we carrying on our shoulders? If we forget this point, no matter what mission we shoulder, failure is self-evident... The nature of our mission determines one thing, that is, at any time, we can only do it first and then fight."

I looked at Beda and Lasevier, their expressions were still blank, but there was a hint of understanding on my face.

"Devils are not very remarkable creatures, and they will be blinded by certain things. Should a woman have wisdom or beauty? It seems that many people think that a woman with wisdom is often less beautiful, and a woman with beauty is often inferior to others in wisdom. But a woman who has both will be regarded as a living monster. This is nothing more than women with wisdom who always deny appearance. Negating the value of a woman." As she spoke, Beda picked up a fork and stuck it on the cake on the plate. "Lipatia, what do you think?"

I nodded, pursed my lips and whispered: "Yes...beauty and wisdom are both parts of beauty, and they are both important."

Chapter 224. Shocking the Tiger (Lipatia)

This gloomy and negative atmosphere did not last until the end of the tea party. Belegia also knew how to use the whip and the sugar separately, but just beat her subordinates coldly with self-righteous arrogance. In the end, all she could get was nothing but loneliness. There is only destruction left. As an angel, I dare not speak nonsense and do not want to talk too much about the rules of experience about the kingship of hell. It is just from my observation that in order to be a king in hell, in addition to having the majesty of a king, you must also have the majesty of a king. With the kindness of a king.

If the first half of the tea party was about Belegia insinuating the arrogance and arrogance of the two generals, then the second half was undoubtedly trying to put together the almost destroyed self-esteem of the two generals.Going step by step to today, people may forget that people with the status of La Servier and Betta are neither kings who promise everything, nor are they low-level soldiers without any rights. Their status just happens to help them avoid a lot of slander and pressure.

Over time, Lasevier and Beda may have forgotten what it feels like to have their self-esteem trampled on; I still remember that when Lasevier and I first met Kumsha when we arrived in Gabriel City, Lasevier's coldness and ruthlessness were vividly displayed. At that time, "he" didn't care about the self-esteem of a demon like Kumsha, and "he" was used to how to survive as a high-ranking general.

The two generals were more vulnerable than imagined.

I'm worried that Belegia will not grasp the proper measure. It is not easy for angels to speculate on the inner fluctuations of each individual demon. A little carelessness will lead to deep-seated hatred.

However, Beregia seems to have done a good job in this aspect. She can always refer to the exploits of the two generals in a natural way. In Beregia's elated narration, the past of great military exploits has emerged before our eyes like a picture.

Finally, the almost iron-blue faces of La Servier and Betta gradually became gentler in the second half of the tea party. Knowing that Belegia had not completely denied them, the two generals were relieved. .

Seeing this scene, even I inadvertently sighed out the worry in my heart, which attracted Belegia's gaze. She seemed to have sensed the worry in my heart, and obviously felt that I was worrying too much. Her plain smile made me look away in embarrassment.

"Then let's go here first today." Belegia put down the fork in her hand, picked up the neatly folded napkin on the table and wiped her mouth. "It's good to get together peacefully like this once in a while. I don't talk so much about official business, but just chatting. I always feel a lot more relaxed."

The expressions of Lasevier and Beda were very subtle, neither crying nor smiling, unable to understand Belegia's thoughts, and they didn't want to respond to her words reluctantly and awkwardly.

I had no choice but to stand up and smooth things over.

"Yes, no matter what, proper rest is very important. If you keep putting yourself in the busy work, you will still be exhausted."

"Oh~ Lipatia would say something like that too."

"what do you mean……"

"Because you've always been a workaholic."

"I just didn't find the right opportunity to rest."

Although I helped to ease the situation, Belegia seemed to have decided to focus on the two generals. She turned her head and looked at La Servier and Beda on the opposite side and said, "The two generals are the hardest ones. La Servier has been busy with official duties every day since he came here. It's good, but as I said, proper rest is very important, because you are too tired, and occasionally you will make wrong decisions."

After finishing the tea party with a wicked smile, Belegia slowly stood up.

"Then I'll go first." After she finished speaking, she walked lightly into the path hidden by flowers and disappeared from our sight.

After Belegia left, I let out another heavy sigh. Lasevier and Beda didn't seem to have reacted yet, they were staring straight in one direction and didn't know what they were looking at.

"Are you two okay?"

The two of them looked at me again. Although the look in their eyes was not confused, it contained confusion.

"Master Lipatia, what is this..." Lasevier asked.

I put down my crossed legs, moved the chair forward, and put my arms on the table. In order to lower my voice, I leaned forward and said in a low voice, "Belegia is a little angry."

"Angry... Did we do something wrong?" Beda asked puzzled.

"It's wrong to say it's wrong, but it's not wrong to say it's not wrong."

"I don't know."

"I don't understand either," Lasevier agreed.

Although it may be too straightforward to say this, but in the face of this complicated situation, Belegia's tact and the doubts of the two generals, if I step in and say some obscure words, wouldn't it add fuel to the fire? Well, at a time like this, if you have something to say, you should still speak it straight.

"In general, Belegia thinks that the two of you are not pragmatic enough."

Both of them were taken aback by my words, because judging from Belegia's words just now, she was obviously saying that Lasevier and Beda were too busy, so why is it becoming unrealistic now?

Yes, this is the meaning hidden in Belegia's words.

"She meant that you didn't do your business, but you did a lot of things that weren't your business."

"Are we... not doing business?" Lasevier's two curved and thin eyebrows frowned.

"Miss Lipatia, can you explain more clearly?"

"The two of you have some disputes about the current situation, and Belegia feels that you are already opposing each other for the sake of opposing each other. You have forgotten that you belong to the power of the Demon King, and you have forgotten what your original purpose is."

Belegia probably felt that these two generals were great talents who could stand on their own, but it was just such two available talents. After they met together, even if they didn't have such intentions subjectively, subconsciously they would still feel that My own status was challenged, and finally turned into a kind of war to maintain my dignity, and I forgot what the original purpose should be.

I don't know if Beda is aware of the fact that Lasevier came to see me last night, but I don't intend to say anything anyway, because although Beda and Lasevier are very harmonious on the surface, and I don't deny that the relationship between the two may really be very good, but conflicts always exist, and telling what happened last night will only exacerbate the conflict.

And this contradiction is brought about by the situation we are in now.

The severe situation of the Demon King's forces determined that the Demon King's army depended on these two generals to a certain extent. This kind of great power had already made Beda and Lasevier used to the environment of self-importance. To put it bluntly, they In fact, it is difficult for both of them to accept other people's opinions. Even if they do, they need to be raised by the other party in a low profile, rather than expressed in an "educational" way.

I think this is the purpose of this tea party, and I don't know where I got the news from, but looking at it now, Belegia must have observed these two for a while, and even knows something that I don't know , will come here to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger.

Really "well-intentioned", Belegia.

Chapter 225. Planning (Lipatia)

The effect of a casual and simple tea party is unexpected. I actually don't know if this is the result that Belegia really wanted. Did she predict this step?From what I know about her, she has exactly the cunning of Goloy, and she uses it more skillfully than Goloy. If she has expected this step, then I have admiration and fear for her. , I can't tell which one it is.

The complex relationship around me is surprisingly chaotic, just like the scenery of Enwei, which is unpleasant and depressing. Every second is spent in an irresistible daze, and I don't know when the thunder will explode in my ears.

In the next few days, both Beda and La Servier also changed their attitudes. No matter whether they were convinced or not, at least on the surface, they had to consider Beregia's mood as the first premise. Perhaps they still placed their hopes on me, thinking that I might compete with Beregia to balance a certain so-called situation.

But I can only let them down. After seeing that I didn't make any statement, the two generals can't say that they have any other choice except to restrain their arrogance.

It was at this time that the two generals submitted to me their future military plans.

I was doing daily records in the library that day. It is a good habit to write down the trivial things that happen every day. This will help you see the development of the situation clearly. It is difficult to see the overall situation clearly, so it is necessary to collect all information, look back at the past and look forward to the future from a more macro perspective.

Just as I was concentrating on writing the records with black ink on the yellowed parchment, the door of the library was pushed open, and then there were two inconsistent but sonorous footsteps.

I looked up and saw La Servillier and Beda come to me through the rows of bookshelves.

After walking in front of me, the two generals in uniform saluted politely, and then Lasevier, who was standing a little in front, handed me the stack of documents in his hand.

I put down the pen in my hand, took the stack of documents slowly, looked at La Servier and asked, "This is?"

"Master Lipatia, this is the plan for the Sea Monster Triangle made by General Beda and I."

In the past two days, I haven't urged Lasevier and Beda about this matter, and I don't know when their self-esteem will recover, but such a thick stack of documents can be completed in just a few days. , it can be seen that the two people are still mature in their hearts, and they care more about their own practical interests than the so-called grievances.

I spread the documents on the table and flipped through them casually, but at the same time I asked the two of them, "Tell me about it first, how do you plan to deal with the Sea Monster Triangle?"

"Yes, according to my discussion with General Beda, we have always believed that the biggest threat to us from the three former generals of the Leviathan family is nothing more than a military threat. No matter what we are doing now or in the future , in fact, there is only one thing, and that is to disarm them and incorporate them."

La Servillier's voice is unwavering, and her soft appearance sometimes makes people forget that she is actually a stronger and fiercer beast than anyone else.

"But since we can't intervene in the relationship with them as the Demon King's Army, we can only contact them through indirect means."

"To put it simply, through proxy warfare." Beda added.

While flipping through the documents, I continued to ask without looking up: "Proxy war... Do you mean to start a war with the Sea Monster Triangle?"

"That's not exactly the case. According to our investigation, since it can be confirmed that in the entire eastern region, those scattered armed separatists are about to move, wanting to attack the power of the Sea Monster Triangle, then we might as well help them."

"Oh, do you mean to subsidize them to destroy the armed forces of the Sea Monster Triangle? I don't think this is realistic... Those mobs, how much resources do we have to spend to get them to defeat the Sea Monster Triangle?"

"You don't have to worry about this, because those mobs fighting the Sea Monster Triangle will not be funded by the Demon King's Army, but will be funded by Rust."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but stop my hand flipping through the paper, and raised my head to look at La Servier beside me.

"What does it mean?"

"It's very simple, Lady Lipatia." Beda also took a step forward, and only then did I notice that Beda is wearing a very charming dress today, wearing a double-breasted jacket with golden buttons and gorgeous patterns on her upper body. uniform, and the lower body is only wearing a pair of shorts that are a little longer than the thighs, and the rest is a pair of black smooth military boots that extend to the knees, which has an indescribable sense of depression. "It is impossible for those mobsters to defeat the Sea Monster Triangle. Under such circumstances, it is better to force the Sea Monster Triangle to approach us."

"You mean...to make them think that Rust is going to get rid of them?"

"Yes, that is."

This concept has to be admitted to be excellent, and the theory that can achieve the greatest benefit with the least resources is just presented in this realistic form.However, I always feel that such an idea is a bit too far-fetched.

So, I immediately asked the two generals: "According to your thinking, there should be two biggest problems now. The first is how to convince the Sea Monster Triangle that Ruster is going to do something. Second, even if Let the Sea Monster Triangle believe that Rust has war intentions, so how can we gain enough advantage on the battlefield to force the Sea Monster Triangle to move closer to us?"

I didn't think that these two questions could overwhelm Lasevier and Betta, and it was just as expected. After hearing my question, Lasevier showed a smile confidently. The softness of the figure also added a bit of charm to that smile.

"Both of these are very easy, Lady Lipatia. Regarding the first point, it is also the first step of our action, that is, to construct Rust's strategic intention, and to convince the Sea Monster Triangle that Ruster and them are related. conflict of interest."

"So, what kind of strategic intention do you want to construct?"

"Resources, Lipatia-sama, resources."

"resource?"

"Yes, it's resources, Lady Lipatia." With that said, Lasevier took a step forward and unfolded a map of Envi in ​​front of my eyes.

Chapter 226. From Macro to Micro of Planning (Lipatia)

"Different from us, Rust currently occupies the northwest of Envi, which is a rather barren area. Although it is a prosperous area of ​​Envi trade, once it loses the support of real production business, coupled with the situation of Envi war, the trade situation in the northwest of Envi region is not as prosperous as imagined." Lasevier explained to me while pointing to the trade routes and cities depicted on the map.

"And what is also different from us is that Last has the ability to gather enough troops, thanks to the policy of racial industry expansion that Last has always pursued."

The so-called racial industry expansion pursued by Rust is worth the betrayal of the succubus's own body. This is the most special feature of this race. The entire succubus race will not lose their self-worth in such a betrayal of themselves. And the value of the flesh, on the contrary, all the value of the succubus race is obtained in such a betrayal.

Therefore, Rust's long-term policy is to use the special point of the succubi to expand his power and influence in various territories through commercial activities. The most ironic thing is that the place that relies the most on this aspect is none other than Satan City.

Of course, it wasn't Goloi's fault, but the special nature of Satan City allowed Rust to take advantage of it.

"But judging from the current situation, although Rust can gather a large number of troops in a short period of time, their logistics cannot guarantee the military operations of these troops. In terms of including the use of weapons, Rust actually lacks resources in Envi."

Lasevier's explanation didn't make me feel relieved. On the contrary, I frowned more suspiciously and asked: "But, according to what you said, Rust shouldn't be crumbling now, right? The part of Envi's power supported by Rust doesn't seem to be crumbling."

"Yes, because Rust can mobilize resources from places other than Envi, or even Ruster itself."

"So……"

"However, the Sea Monster Triangle doesn't know about Rust's strength. They are not sure what the real situation of Rust is, because unlike us, the Sea Monster Triangle is just a local separatist force, and it is impossible for us to have enough resources to investigate the situation in other territories."

After I understood what Lasevier meant, I took a breath, nodded and said, "So, you want to say that we are going to use this point of view to deceive the Sea Monster Triangle, right?"

"Yes, this is the first step. We must blatantly go to the sea monster triangle and tell them what we want to deceive them."

I rubbed my chin and stared at every city and every river on the map. I also felt a little uneasy, so I could only continue to ask in a skeptical tone: "This...is it really feasible? It feels a little too ridiculous."

"It is possible to implement, and there is also the possibility of failure, but all the trade-offs we have made so far are trade-offs between benefits and risks, so from this point of view, this should be regarded as the most complete plan."

My doubts about this plan are entirely based on perceptual knowledge. However, after calming down and thinking about it, I realize that the two battle-tested generals, La Servier and Betta, seem to have a lower chance of making mistakes in such an action than me. So from a rational point of view, I still choose to be less self-righteous. As long as there are no major problems in nature, the specific implementation should be left to them to deal with.

So instead of arguing with Lasevier on the feasibility of the plan, I turned to the next question.

"Then what about the second point I asked just now, even if war breaks out, how can we guarantee that the sea monster triangle will move closer to us?"

When talking about this question, Lasevier's face was a bit more confident than the first question, as if I happened to walk into an ambush she had set up.

"Master Lipatia, regarding the second point, it's actually quite easy, that is, we and Rust's actions are carried out together."

"Sorry, I didn't understand."

"Master Lipatia, think about it, since we want to pretend that Rust is going to declare war on the Sea Monster Triangle, there is no doubt that we must pretend to be Rust's people to negotiate with the Sea Monster Triangle. Naturally, the demands made by Rust's negotiating team disguised as our people will definitely be quite excessive, and the other party will definitely not accept it. After that, we will send our own negotiating team to express to the other party that the new Leviathan regime is willing to invite the Sea Monster Triangle to assist the new Leviathan family. So that the other party can remember that they have a way out."

"But even so, if you don't gain an advantage on the battlefield..."

La Servillier couldn't help laughing, although it was by no means a contemptuous ridicule, but it did sound to me like contempt for laymen, which made me a little ashamed, although I knew that La Servillier would never have such arrogance towards me.

"It's okay, Lipatia-sama, even if the mob we support is defeated, it doesn't matter. The only thing we need to convince the Sea Monster Triangle is that Rust is going to attack them." With that said, Lasevier turned and looked at Beda, crossing his arms across his chest. "Even the generals in the Sea Monster Triangle, no matter how stupid they are, must know one thing. If Ruster attacks them, they have no chance of winning. No one wants to confront Ruster head-on."

"So it's like this, is it psychological offense and defense..." I have to say that my previous thoughts were a bit biased. I always thought that these generals really had no other thoughts in their minds except for dancing knives and guns on the battlefield. I am still superficial.

"So, Lady Lipatia, what do you think of this plan?"

"Well... how should I put it, it sounds like it's still feasible."

After getting my affirmation, Lasevier and Beda looked at each other again, nodded to each other, and showed some relaxed expressions.

"but……"

It's a pity that I didn't know what to do, and the relaxed look that made them suddenly hide somewhere.

"I still have one last question, that is, once the fake show is done, the Sea Monster Triangle is really afraid of Rast, so what should I do if I surrender to Rast instead of us?"
