“No. Absolutely not.”The quartermaster answered at once.“These supplies are being delivered to us in secret by allied forces. This matter must not be allowed to spread.”“They launched military operations without orders. If they are exposed, the Central Council will never let them off. Do you understand what I mean?”Nolan Bennett warned him.“I do. I do, General, I do.”“Watching so many of our brothers die... I’m grieving too. They were my comrades—my brothers as well.”“If I were the sort to inform on them, then let heaven strike me down. And if I were to commit such a dishonorable act, the spirits of our fallen brothers would never forgive me.”The quartermaster was nearly in tears, his voice already thick with sobs.“Good. Now take me to where those ‘found’ supplies are being kept.”The quartermaster hurried ahead to lead the way.Before long, Nolan Bennett was brought to a warehouse, where a considerable stockpile of advanced weapons and equipment had been stacked inside.“The

“A ceasefire negotiation? Of course it can be called a ceasefire negotiation.”“That depends on what terms they reach. We won this campaign—we drove Dreadmoor off the East Coast.”“And since we won, then we negotiate as victors, and we demand the outcome due to victors.”Joseph’s expression remained calm, but his gaze was razor-sharp.“Then let us wait and see how they intend to conduct these talks.”Neil Foster said, his eyes lighting up.“Have our intelligence operatives—the entire intelligence network—monitor the negotiations closely.”“And inform Dale Jimenez to make ready.”Joseph addressed the room.“Yes, sir!”At his words, everyone answered in unison.East Coast, front line, inside a forward command post.Outside the command post, artillery thundered without pause. Corpses lay strewn everywhere—some their own, some the enemy’s. The fighting had been unspeakably brutal.From time to time, fighter aircraft streaked across the sky, followed by the distant roar of bombardment.“Re

"But before we can accomplish anything truly great, we must first take Metropolis City. If those traitors in Metropolis City continue issuing reckless commands, then our greater cause will never succeed."Joseph nodded as he spoke."You only need to tell us what you require, and we old men will find a way to make it happen.""What the eastern coast needs most right now is advanced weaponry. Over the years, with our cooperation with Southern Frontier, we’ve already produced quite a number of cutting-edge arms.""Of course, we also have our true trump cards in reserve—large-scale strategic weapons. We ask only this: tell us how you intend to use them. Whatever you need, we’ll support you accordingly.""Exactly. You’re a child we old men watched grow up. We listen to you, and to no one else.""..."The room erupted into overlapping voices."Those large-scale weapons, naturally, are meant for Dreadmoor itself. As for when they will be used, you need only wait for my word.""In any case, I

"Don’t be anxious yet. I promise you this—Elysia will not lose so much as an inch of its land.""But in the battle before us, win or lose, Nolan Bennett must fight it.""And Southern Frontier cannot move rashly at this stage. If you deploy without cause, the Central Council will brand you rebels.""If we are going to do something great, then we must do it cleanly and decisively. We cannot allow ourselves to be swayed by the tides of the moment.""General Gray, from this point on, I want you to drill and reorganize your troops and keep them ready to move at any time.""At the same time, secretly dispatch small units in scattered formations, traveling light, and have them converge toward the eastern coast.""The assembly points will be the garrison bases in those seven cities.""Within half a month, the total number of troops gathered across those seven garrison bases must be no fewer than one hundred thousand.""At the same time, covertly transport military supplies to those three base

The woman lying in the bed was none other than Fiona.At that moment, she was sleeping peacefully. Joseph’s stamina was far beyond that of any ordinary man; how could a delicate woman like her possibly withstand it?So from last night until now, she had remained in a deep sleep, and Joseph had not disturbed her.In the end, things had still come to this step. Joseph’s heart was filled with mixed emotions.Bzzz. Bzzz.Just then, the vibration of his phone interrupted his thoughts.Joseph stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, picked up the phone, glanced at the screen, and saw that it was Neil Foster calling. He answered at once."Young master, it’s begun on the eastern coast.""According to the intelligence on my end, Dreadmoor launched an attack on the eastern coast at one in the morning. It was an undeclared assault.""Right now, Nolan Bennett’s forces are resisting with everything they have."Neil Foster’s voice came from the other end of the line."So it’s finally come?""Where ar

"A little sleepy, yes—but even more than that, I want to talk to you.""It feels as though we’ve hardly ever been alone like this."Fiona spoke slowly, her voice quiet and unhurried."We were never truly husband and wife. If not for these special circumstances, how could we possibly be alone together like this?"Joseph replied."That’s true."At his words, Fiona seemed to fall briefly into disappointment."Get some rest. It’s late."With that, Joseph closed his eyes."Mm."Fiona answered softly and closed her eyes as well.After that, Joseph said nothing more, and Fiona fell silent too.Joseph assumed Fiona had finally drifted off.After taking his medicine, drowsiness was only natural. The fact that Fiona had managed to stay awake this long was already no small thing.Thinking that, Joseph closed his eyes again and prepared to sleep.But after a while, he caught the faint drift of her fragrance in the dark, and then felt her arms gently wrap around him. At once, his whole body turned
