Reborn: Imperial Officer Promotion Guide

Chapter 157 Hitting the road

Seeing the documents in Helheim's hand, Nur Gana began to doubt his own eyes.

No, Nur Ghana should be more suspicious of himself at this moment.

Why did I make such a low-level mistake?

He clearly reprimanded his subordinates every day and required them to carry out their duties thoroughly, but why did he make such a mistake?

--Then.

"why?"

Nur Ghana couldn't help but ask, not to Helheim, but to himself.

He didn't even know why he did such a stupid thing.

He didn't even think of burning the document at the first opportunity.

Why? In order to erase this evidence, he obviously gambled everything and even took on a huge debt.

why?

"It's very simple." Hull smiled.

"Because you don't know what risk avoidance is..."

"Well……"

That is to say...

"Because you are just an incompetent person."

Hull gave the clearest answer.

"Gurgle...Gurgle..."

Looking back on his life, Noor Ghana is the smart person who looks down on incompetent people the most.

Idiots don't deserve to live - that's what he has always thought.

"inability……"

Is it true that I am the real fool?

An incompetent person who would make such a low-level mistake?

“Mmmm…”

In an instant, Nur Gana felt dizzy, his eyes rolled back, and white foam began to come out of his mouth, making a sound of foam squirming.

"Lord Nur Gana seems to be feeling a little unwell... Well, let's get back to business..."

Hull turned back and looked at Major General Masayin calmly.

"You are so brave to put on such a ridiculous farce in front of me...!"

As soon as Major General Masayin said this, visible pressure began to emanate from his body.

As soon as he raised his right hand, the [Tiger Flute] automatically flew into his hand.

Like a bloodthirsty tiger opening its bloody mouth, Major General Masayin assumed a fighting stance.

In an instant, everyone present felt the overwhelming pressure.

"Masain...! Stop it!"

"Hell!"

Ganasde and Gilder's voices rang out at the same time.

But the momentum was so overwhelming that they couldn't get close at all.

"If you think you can solve this problem with a farce, then your expectations will be dashed... I will personally annihilate you here!"

A strong murderous aura emerged from Masain, like a demon crawling out of hell, and blood mist gradually filled the air around him.

If you look closely, you will find that the blade of [Tiger Flute] is already blood red.

Compared to its state in Brad's hands, the current [Tiger Flute] has revealed its true power.

No one present had any doubt that death would come to Helheim in an instant.

However, only Hull seemed to be completely unaffected. Not only did he not assume a combat posture, he did not even take out his wand. He just continued to look at Major General Masayin indifferently.

"Please don't be anxious. What you just watched was just an entertainment show. It seems that you don't like it. It doesn't matter. The highlight is still to come..."

"Hmph...what else do you want to do?"

"I would like you to go back to where you came from, and set off for Osterland immediately..."

After hearing this, Ganasde and Gilder were so shocked that they were speechless.

No...not only him, everyone else, including Brad and the knights under Masain, all had the same idea.

——This person is crazy...

No one had ever dared to speak to Major General Masayin like that.

Is he really not afraid of death? !

"I see... You seem to be very anxious to go to hell..."

"Why? You don't like it? But if you don't leave with your army, the entire East Territory will probably be affected by the war... I will be very distressed... Fortunately, I have made preparations so that you and your subordinates can return to Ost Territory within six days..."

"Six days?!...What are you talking about?!"

In an instant, Masayn's hand stopped, and the bloody smell on the [Tiger Flute] in his hand also dissipated.

"That's absolutely impossible! Even if we march quickly, it will take at least a month to get back to Ostland from here."

"No, there is no need to travel day and night. Even if we just march normally, you can return to the front line of Ostland within six days - just use the settlement we have built in the Red Viper Desert and cross the entire desert."

"This...how is this possible..." Brad was the first to speak out his thoughts.

What on earth is this guy named Helheim talking about?

Like him, none of the knights present dared to believe such a fantasy.

"That is to say, in the future, the supplies sent to Oster Territory will also be delivered within six days." Hull raised his right index finger and added.

"……really?!"

Masayn's eyes sparkled with a light of surprise.

It is normal for Major General Masayin to do so. For any army in any country, battlefield supply is always the most important priority that needs to be ensured.

Only after ensuring supplies and transportation routes can a detailed combat plan be further formulated.

——This is the basic requirement for being a military commander.

To put it a little more arbitrarily, war is a battle of logistics. An army without logistical support will find it difficult to sustain a war, no matter how brave it is.

The current Oster Territory has been unable to launch a large-scale offensive, largely due to difficulties in material supplies, and can only passively defend.

Day by day, year by year, huge amounts of money are spent but there is no way to resolve the current predicament.

If the transportation journey, which originally took nearly two months, can be shortened to one-tenth of the original time, not only will the time cost be greatly saved, but the loss incurred during the transportation of materials can also be greatly reduced - in this way, the total amount of materials sent to the front line can also be greatly increased.

All in all, the overall profit is far more than ten times!

Not only can it provide more flexible supplies, it can also replenish the front lines with urgently needed fresh vegetables, meat, medicines and other military supplies.

After all, the reason why Marsain personally led his team all the way to East Territory was to ensure the logistical supply to the front line of Ost Territory and eliminate any worries.

At this moment, not only were all of Masayin's previous concerns cleared away, but if used properly, in the event of an emergency, such as the front line being besieged or the stockpiled supplies being destroyed by the enemy, having such a route to the front line quickly could greatly reduce the risk of Osterland's fall.

Of course, all of this assumes that what Helheim says is true.

——There really is such a shortcut in the Red Viper Desert that allows the army and transport teams to reach Ostland within six days.

"I have already made arrangements in advance. Please let me lead the way for you."

As he said this, Heer turned around, exposing his defenseless back to Masayn.

"..."

"Even so, if you still want to kill me, please do it."

Having said this, Hull strode out of the castle.

"..."

Masayin snorted coldly and threw the [Tiger Flute] in his hand to Brad.

"Let's go. I wonder if what this kid said is true..."

"……Yes."

Standing at the castle gate were a black-haired girl and a giant man.

Heer introduced Masayin with a smile: "This is my secretary Ling, and my bodyguard Goliath."

"...You", Masain glanced at Goliath, "You should be a highlander, right? I didn't expect to see you here."

That rare set of strong muscles and a huge body of nearly two meters tall, but there is no sense of disharmony at all.

There is no doubt that these are the people known as natural fighters - the Highlanders.

The Highlanders were once powerful enemies of the Empire. They were conquered by the Empire fifty years ago, and a large number of Highlanders were forced to become second-class citizens of the Empire.

Just thirty years ago, there were more than 300,000 Highlanders in the empire, but as wars broke out everywhere, a large number of Highlanders were conscripted into the army.

Most of them died on the front lines, and the few remaining Highlanders lived in poverty, their numbers dwindling until they became extinct.

"Yes, Goliath is a partner I am proud of. He will not lose even if he fights Major General Masayin head-on."

"Huh! You're so arrogant... What's going on with that little girl over there?"

In response to the question raised by Major General Masayin, Hesen put his hand on Ling's head.

"This child's potential is even greater than Goliath's. Don't underestimate her. She will surpass you one day. Of course, I mean in terms of fighting."

"Ah?! Teacher, what nonsense are you talking about!" Ling was stunned and quickly denied it.

"I'm not kidding, this is the truth."

"How is this possible!? I beg you! Stop talking nonsense! I want to grow up in peace!"

"Don't be silly. Why would Major General Masayin attack a child?"

"Waaaaaah! Teacher, please shut up! Major General Masain, listen to me, the teacher likes to joke about things like this, so don't believe me!"

"When did I lie?"

"Aren't you lying now?"

During the argument, Masain smiled: “…Hahahaha…hahahahahahaha!”

This was the first time that Major General Masain laughed out loud since arriving in East Territory.

"You are so funny... Helheim, I have never seen anyone as funny as you."

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, but I'm not very good at dealing with children like Ling."

"You'd better restrain yourself. I can tell you clearly that I haven't decided whether to take off your head or not."

"My head is better off staying on my shoulders. Please don't worry about it. Of course, if we must fight, I am confident that I will not lose."

"Ah, here we go again! Teacher, do you know how to write the word modesty?"

“I’m already very humble.”

Soon, Major General Masain, with Brad and some of his knights, and Lord East's three people, including Hull, as well as a few officials such as Gilder and Ganasde, got on their horses and prepared to set off.

"Major General Masain, let's ride for a while first. Someone will pick us up after we enter the desert area, and then we can change to other mounts."

"Hmm, sure...what are you doing?"

Hull was tying the iron chain to the saddle with a click.

"Don't worry, just make some preparations..."

"Do you need any other preparations?"

Hull smiled and pointed behind everyone. The man who claimed to be the driver and had taken Brad's attack was bringing Nur Ghana over.

"We are going to cross the entire Red Viper Desert this time. We can take this opportunity to parade that idiot through the streets. I think the people in the desert will be very happy to see him like this..."
