Yodha dealt with so matters and took Sam and Arman back to the General’s office.
There the regintal commanders and the nascent battalion commanders are all already gathered for a eting.
After Yodha was seated, a few more regintal commanders ca hurriedly and filled up the last empty seats and the eting comnced.
"The situation at all the borders is becoming tense and it is already close to an all-out. This year we were late and all the strategic locations within the vast borders are mostly occupied by the Rubrum Empire.
They are especially active this ti around and there are so reasons for that. We have received information that there is a special regint ford in the rubrum empire, that are soldiers specially trained since infancy.
They are Nascent stage cultivators and all of them are at the Late stage of the Peak stage.
This regint didn’t contain ten thousand soldiers like a normal regint. But they only have around five thousand soldiers.
They are a result of a special program that was started more than three decades and it finally showed results. Apart from this little information, we don’t know a lot about them.
This regint might be small but they are treating this regint especially well and there is news from the spy that all the preparations of the war are specially made in such a way that these regint soldiers could perform well.
I couldn’t co to a decision on how to proceed on this matter, which is why I invited all the regint commanders here to discuss this matter."
One of the regint commanders who are in charge of the border at different city said.
"General, I think we don’t need to take this seriously. It is not like we don’t train the elites. There are also special divisions in our army, they might be the sa as them. As long as the five special divisions clashed against them, I think we would still be the one who is victorious in the end."
Many of the regint commanders agreed, but the General said in a serious expression.
"I would like to think so too. But I still have a bad feeling about this situation that there is sothing wrong with his division. The thing is one of our extrely high-level spies sacrificed his life to get us this information. He was killed while he was sending the information and that is why we only got partial information."
The regint commanders and the Battalion commanders all felt that situation is more serious than they thought.
They went into deep thought.
"Do we have any information regarding the location they are stationed at?"
Yodha asked.
"Coincidentally they are stationed nearest to your battlefield. As all of you know, the nascent stage battle is the most important of all battles between us.
Until the battle reaches any of the Dukedom capitals and the Imperial capitals, the Transcendent stage and consummate stage battles wouldn’t matter much. At most they could affect so morale.
But until that stage, the Nascent stage battles and Pre-transcendent stage battles are the deciding factors for the conquering of the border towns and cities.
As you know, your battalion and regint are stationed at a critical point on our border. Those are the cities that house so of the major resources of our empire."
When General explained, Yodha’s frown got deeper and deeper.
He very well knew that would happen the city under his battalion’s protection was under the enemy’s control.
The city has so mines and that too of extrely high-grade tal. The ore that could be refined from it and made into weapons is actually very limited, but this tal is the only thing that can be used to make the armors and weapons for people at Transcendent stage cultivators.
There is no way that they could let this go.
If the city is in the middle of the nation, then they would have just placed an extrely strong person to keep watch, but it is at borders and if they just tyrannically provided protection by an expert, then the so-called neutral empires will claim injustice and interfere in the war.
So, all they can do is fight a bitter battle.
All the commanders started giving various ideas. Yodha who ca later looked at Sam and Arman and pondered on why they were called for, the general wouldn’t do so casually.
All of Sam’s missions are impossible for two people to clear and so of Sam’s missions are done alone and they would need an elite squad to even attempt and that too with a high failure rate.
He felt like he knew what the general is thinking.
After so ti there are no feasible ideas, the general said.
"I do have an idea on how to proceed, but there is too much risk involved and it would be solely dependent on the efforts of a single person."
As general spoke, he looked at Sam and took out the mission reports of Sam, and placed them on the table.
Everyone started looking through them and the reports slowly spread all over the room for the next five minutes, nobody spoke in this ti period.
They just looked through all the details and slowly digested the unbelievable battle record.
They really wanted to ask if it was real, but when they saw the serious expression of the General, it didn’t seem like he was joking at all, and their question might sound stupid.
After everyone looked through them, the general said as he pointed at Sam who is standing behind Yodha.
"His na is Sam and he joined the army recently. The mission reports in your hands are all his. Actually, he wouldn’t have a chance to get to do these missions, but the regint commander has a personal grudge and wanted to use the enemy hands to kill him, but Sam provided excellent battle achievents and was able to get out of alive and even brought hundreds of heads of their opponents.
I am thinking of sending him to the location and inspect what was happening. We need first-hand information and the more we get the better.
But I don’t want to lose such a precious soldier if sothing goes wrong, that is why I didn’t ntion it from the start. So, please give so ideas."
"Why is general thinking of an alternative? It would be his honor as a human to serve the empire. If he rejected, it is better off throwing him off out of the military."
One of the regint commanders who is a naga said coldly as he eyed Sam.
Sam didn’t like the gaze, he also matched his gaze and looked at him with equally cold eyes.
Day by day, the Nagas are getting a degraded evaluation in Sam’s opinion. He is losing any form of respect he had towards a race because of these people.
It is almost like every Naga is an arrogant young master, they have this condescending gaze whenever they looked at a human.
If they are really capable, then Sam wouldn’t mind at all, but the thing is most of them are cowards. In fact, the border here mostly contained humans because this is the most active border of all.
All the noble offspring and even normal nagas wouldn’t join this border force. All of them go and join the borders that the empire shared with other friendly empires.
This is because they only joined for getting by in the military and try their best to buy their way up the ranks and improve their influence and the businesses using the benefits they get as a military man.
"Get out." General directly sent the regint commander out with a cold shout. He doesn’t even have any patience to calmly deal with him. The regint commander saw the cold face of the general and helplessly left the room.
"Any better suggestions?" When he once again addressed the room, there are none.
He then sent out all the commanders and only four people are left inside the room.
Sam, Arman, Yodha, and the general.
"I have important missions for three of you.
Sam, I want you to gather information regarding this battalion.
They are stationed at the border of the city that is quite bustling, and we have a way to sneak you into that place with a false identity. You can use any ans necessary to gather as much information as possible. But the priority is that you should co back alive and give the first rank information.
I could have sent a team, but they would easily get caught and you are also capable enough to fight against a large number of enemies.
Arman, you will be sent to the special division that has a team that uses lightning elent. Your abilities are way beyond the abilities of a normal soldier. There would be a special training session for the next two weeks. We already sent the letter to the General of the rubrum that we are going to start a full-scale war only after fifteen days, so no one is allowed to deploy more than a few companies worth of soldiers to the sa place and can only assign so missions for them.
This will hinder the war from happening.
Yodha, you will be once again taking over the training of the Special division teams for the next fifteen days. There are so special training thods that we got from so research, you are the only one that can make them obey and follow these instructions strictly.
The outco of this war is based on all three of you. I hope you live up to the expectations."
