After Transmigrating to Become the Daughter of a Duke, I Just Want to Pursue a Career

"What did you find? Is that girl really that powerful? With that motley army in her hands, can it really cause a lot of damage to our troops?"

"That's right!" Duke Girton nodded affirmatively to Coleman's question, and then he turned his gaze to the direction of the coalition army, with a deep look in his gaze,

"I wasn't sure before, but through the communication just now, I can basically be sure now that the little girl must have deployed a backhand capable of severely injuring us."

"So now, our primary goal is to find out what her backhand is, and then destroy it completely!"

Chapter 202 198. Exploration and confrontation

An hour later, Lie Yang restrained his mighty power that he couldn't look directly at, and quietly lowered towards the horizon. The golden tassels that covered the earth during the day turned into red scarlet silks, enveloping the earth. An unknown layer of blood.

As the sun sets, the light permeating the world begins to dim, and at the other end of the sky, a round of silver moon looms between the gaps in the clouds, as if to tell the world that the rotation of day and night is about to begin.

However, in this brief interlude between day and night, located on the outskirts of the small town of Victorville, the Allied Army and the Imperial Army seemed to be two fierce beasts who could no longer hold back their desire to fight. The two sides ended their confrontation and began to turn around. Into all-out conflict!

However, although it is said to be a full-scale conflict, the two sides are still in the stage of mutual exploration. The imperial army is the attacker on the battlefield. The army of the Principality of Zeledor.

This army can be regarded as the most traditional servant army in nature. Its army is mainly composed of temporarily recruited serfs, and then a few nobles and their retainers who serve as commanders. It is completely conceivable how much combat power such an army can have.

On the other hand, the United Army, although it is a motley patchwork army that does not have enough numbers, but because of Katerina, the soldiers of the United Army are actually professional soldiers from all over the world.

Moreover, after Katerina's ingenious pre-war mobilization just now, the United Army has at least achieved a unified thinking on the surface, which greatly alleviated the internal contradictions of the army. In terms of organizational form, it can be regarded as an army Qualified regular army.

In addition, this army has completed the "modernization" of weapons, all members are equipped with electromagnetic rifles, and there is a "famous general" like Katerina as the commander, the combat effectiveness of the army is extremely impressive, even if the opponent is an imperial knight Regiment, also able to face steel head-on.

So of course, when the battle started, the confrontation between the two sides turned into a unilateral massacre from the very beginning......

"Don't withdraw! Don't withdraw! Go back to me, pick up your weapons and go back to fight!"

"If anyone dares to retreat again, I'll cut off his head—!"

At this moment, the second son of Grand Duke Zenosi, Mossac del Zenosi, looked angrily at the rout soldiers who had fled from the front line. The soldiers drove back to the battlefield.

However, the efforts of the second son of Grand Duke Zenosi were completely useless. These soldiers who were serfs not long ago did not have much will to fight at all, and the scene on the battlefield was too terrifying. Everyone was terrified. In extreme panic, no one cared about his threats.

Mosakdel became even more angry when his wishes were not answered, but anger could not solve the problem. The general situation of the battlefield could never be changed by the subjective wishes of the second son of a duke.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please calm down, we have to leave."

Finally, someone couldn't stand Mosakder's mindless words and deeds, and took the initiative to stand up and persuade,

"Now that the morale of the army is gone, there is no point in staying here any longer. For the sake of His Highness's safety, let's leave now."

"To shut up!"

Hearing these words, Mossakder looked at the persuader angrily, and cursed with a ferocious face,

"Casold, you bastard with an unknown mother!"

"You want me to go back to code with a disgraceful failure?"

"Do you want to see me being ridiculed by everyone for being incompetent and stupid?"

"Are you trying to make my father completely disappointed in me?"

"Don't think about—!"

"I would rather die on the battlefield than accept this humiliation!"

"Your Highness, you have misunderstood......" Facing Mossakder's accusation, the persuader named Casiod's expression remained unchanged, and he maintained a respectful attitude towards the second son of the Grand Duke. After saluting, he explained calmly,

"I am your subject, and the honor and disgrace of the family are tied to you, so how can I watch you fall into the dust."

"If there is still a chance, I would not suggest that His Highness evacuate, but the current situation is really not suitable for continuing."

"His Royal Highness also witnessed the scene just now. The 'rifle' equipped by the coalition army is too powerful. In the face of this weapon, the ordinary army can't resist at all. There are no weapons, and in this situation, attacking the coalition army formation is simply ordering the soldiers to die......"

"Enough!" The next moment, before Casiod could finish speaking, the Grand Duke's second son interrupted with a sharp growl,

"Do you think I'm a fool?"

"Do these truths need you to teach me?"

"No matter how sound the truth is, what's the point? Those imperial savages won't listen to any explanation at all. They threatened to cut off my head. What else can I do besides sending the troops to the battlefield according to their orders?!"

At this moment, looking at the second son of the grand duke who looked helpless and furious in front of him, Cassod couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart. To be honest, at this critical moment, he really didn't want to continue wasting time with this person in front of him. However, it is a pity that, as a subject of the other party, under the constraints of the noble law, he cannot do any disrespectful things in public.

"Your Highness, don't be impatient, please listen to my words......"

After taking a deep breath, Casiod, who quickly calmed down, explained to his titular lord in a good voice,

"Things in this world are not always static. In different time periods, the development of things will evolve differently. We only need to make some adjustments to make the development of things meet our needs."

"Before the empire ordered us to attack the coalition army's formation, it didn't really want to rely on our strength to defeat the coalition army, but to use our hands to test the coalition army's details."

"The situation is different now. After strictly implementing the imperial order, our army suffered heavy losses. Although there were not many results, it can be regarded as a proof of our loyalty. In this case, the retreat will not touch the imperial people. malice."

"Wait!" Facing Casiod's remarks, the Grand Duke's second son interrupted again with his eyes wide open before he finished speaking.

"You mean, even if we run away now, the empire won't pursue it?!"

Casiod instinctively twitched the corners of his mouth when he questioned the prince's second son without aristocratic attitude, and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes, but soon, he covered up his emotions and nodded respectfully,

"Actually, it's not an escape. We have strictly implemented the battle plan formulated by the empire. However, the weapons and equipment are not as good as the enemy. In order to better attack in the next battle, we can only choose to retreat strategically."

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" After listening to Casiod's embellished statement, the second son of the Grand Duke nodded excitedly, and there was no sign of depression in his expression.

"You're right, Sir Cassod, we're not running away, we're just retreating strategically!"

"It's not that our army didn't work hard enough, it's that the enemy is too strong. In order to better attack, we should retreat strategically now."

After all, the second son of the grand duke was about to give the troops a retreat order, but before he could take any action, Cassod hurriedly stopped him. Ningchen explained with a wry smile,

"Your Highness, although we are retreating, we cannot just retreat so casually. We must convince the empire of our loyalty."

"Loyalty?" Facing Casiod's explanation, the grand duke's second son stared at him, and then shouted,

"What do you mean? Am I not loyal enough? My troops are almost lost in half. If this is not loyalty, how can I prove it?"

On the other side, listening to the roar of the grand duke's second son, Cassod made a look of embarrassment, then he rubbed his hands, pointed in the direction of the imperial army, and whispered in a sneaky manner,

"Your Highness, we all know your loyalty to the empire, but the imperial people are extremely suspicious, and they may not believe it."

"I have a plan to ensure that His Highness will no longer be suspected by the empire, but..."

Speaking of this, as if there was something unspeakable, Casiod looked at the second son of the grand duke, and put on a look of hesitating to speak. The second son of the grand duke was listening enthusiastically, seeing Casiod's reaction like this , he waved his hands impatiently, and then hurriedly asked,

"Just what? Don't hesitate, just say it if you have a way!"

Hearing the grand duke's second son's questioning, Casiod was like a fox who had stolen a chicken, the corner of his mouth raised a slight arc, and then, with a very respectful attitude, he leaned into the grand duke's second son's ear and whispered: ,

"Your Highness, we are only vassals of the Imperial Army. The Empire ordered us to be the main force to attack the formation of the Allied Army. This is a rather unreasonable request."

"Now we have suffered so many casualties. Although no one can hold the empire responsible, the responsibility for the defeat in the battle is ultimately there."

"With the arrogance that the imperial people have always shown, they may not be willing to take this responsibility, but we have to let them take the responsibility, at least, let them admit our sacrifice on the surface."

"Today, our army has suffered heavy casualties. This is an indisputable fact, but it is not important enough to make the empire retreat because of this. We have to continue to increase the weight."

At this moment, listening to Casiod's secretive words, the second son of the Grand Duke's breath began to become short of breath, and after hearing the "overweight", he almost instinctively asked,

"How to increase the number?"

On the other side, seeing that the second son of the grand duke has successfully been set into his own rhythm of thinking, Cassod secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Immediately afterwards, he put on a look of fear and trepidation on his face, and asked a very strange question in a cautious tone ,

"Your Highness, I dare to ask you a question......"

"Can you act?"

.........................................................

Half an hour later, the first round of conflict between the Imperial Army and the Allied Army ended. The final result of this battle was that the defending side won a complete victory at a very small cost, while the offensive side suffered heavy losses from the Imperial Army.

Although all those who died in the battle were the troops of the Principality of Boozeredo, which was a vassal of the imperial army, it is a fact that the imperial army was defeated after all, so since they were defeated, someone must naturally take responsibility.

According to the original plan, Duke Girton planned to push all the responsibility for the failure to Boozeredo. Although from the very beginning, this defeat was what he expected, and it could even be said that he planned it on his own initiative. So what does it matter?The armies of the vassal states are nothing more than lackeys to the empire, and who cares about the wailing of lackeys.

However, just when Duke Girton was about to act according to the scheduled plan, an accident occurred...

"What are you talking about, that guy was injured? And he was seriously injured?!"

At this moment, upon hearing the news brought back by his deputy, Duke Girton seemed to have seen a ghost, with a rarely surprised expression on his face,

"Are you sure? That guy is a dude, how could he have such awareness?"

"Unfortunately, the news is true." Facing Duke Girton's questioning, Coleman, as his deputy, couldn't help shaking his head, and then said with emotion,

"I just went to confirm it myself. The guy was indeed injured, and he was seriously injured. A stray bullet went straight through his chest, and he almost died."

"It's really strange. How could this guy have such courage? Could it be that we were mistaken before?"

"Forget it." After receiving an affirmative answer, Duke Girton was also in a daze for a moment, but quickly calmed down.

"No matter what the real situation is, he was injured for the sake of the empire after all. It is a big taboo not to know the reward and punishment. Let him go this time. I will go to express my condolences in person later as a reward. It's not a big deal anyway. .”

"Let's talk about the business now. So many people died in Boozeret just now, have you figured out the details on the other side?"

Hearing that Duke Girton mentioned the business, Coleman's expression quickly became serious, and he only heard his deep voice respond,

"There's nothing new to discover. The Boozeret people are really useless. They didn't even break into the first line of defense of the coalition army. They didn't find anything. They all died in vain."

"However, it's not that there is nothing to gain. In the battle just now, a knight of Boozeredo died on the battlefield. After studying his body, I found that the electromagnetic rifle equipped by Burros and the style developed by His Highness No, knight armor is not completely resistant to the bullets of this rifle, and if the same area is subjected to multiple shots, the knight armor will also be shattered."

"Although the knight armor of the Boozeretians is not as good as ours, we have to guard against it. In the next battle, we must not be dragged into a dogfight by the coalition army, otherwise we may suffer heavy losses."

"That's it..." After listening to Coleman's remarks, Duke Girton became silent, and after staring at the coalition army formation not far away for a long time, The legendary duke suddenly said,

"Order the troops to return to the river bank and set up camp. Today's battle is over. Let the soldiers take a good rest and fight again tomorrow."

"I'm not going to fight anymore~?" On the other side, after receiving the order, Coleman did not rush to execute it, but asked suspiciously,

"If we retreat now, we are giving the coalition more time to prepare, and the next battle will become more difficult. Are you sure you want to cease fighting today?"

"It's okay." Facing his deputy's doubts, Duke Girton smiled calmly,

"Later, I will arrange for some small troops to make noise all night, so that they can't sleep at night. In this way, we will have nothing to do until tomorrow."

"Until now, we haven't figured out what the little girl's backhand is. We can't rush to fight. No matter what her backhand is, as long as our army doesn't move, she can't hurt us. "

"In addition, many tactical arrangements are time-sensitive. I'm curious, if I don't rush to act now, what will she do next......"
