Lord Era: I Liberate Slaves in Another World

Monarchy, nobles, and gods—they revel in their supreme power, looking down on everything. They oppress the common people's wealth and lives, and delight in watching all beings kneel for surviva...

Chapter 8: Deciding to Fight on Two Fronts

"Uma, Selene, if the Orc King's Court really sent out powerful warriors of the same rank as the Savage Blood Warrior (Level 6) or the Great Divine Sorcerer (Level 6), are you sure you can win?"

Uma stood up and bowed.

"To be honest, Master, after the last battle with the twisted monster, I became deeply aware of my own shortcomings. Since I have been working in the relatively relaxed position of housekeeper for a long time, I have forgotten many combat techniques.

So now I usually go to Selene to spar with her to awaken my previous state."

As Uma spoke, her aura continued to rise, and everyone present felt a little uncomfortable under the pressure of Uma's aura.

Leibolt was also extremely shocked. The old man was still so strong.

Selene also stood up and said:

"I am invincible under the forbidden spell."

After hearing Selene's unmodest words, Reborret felt much more at ease.

Moreover, there is a powerful weapon in the territory. The Gustav cannon without any shell restrictions can play a considerable role.

"Then, Lord Reborret, to be on the safe side, why don't we give up attacking the Sapphire Territory? After all, it's certain that the Royal Court will send troops to attack the territory."

Someone spoke up.

"Indeed, giving up on attacking Sapphire Territory is a good idea now. However, there is one thing you may not know. It's not just for the sake of Sapphire Territory's resources. You also need to know one thing: it's impossible for Sapphire Territory to solve the problem internally.

We can only rely on external forces, and besides us, there is only one external force, and that is Red Dragon Territory. If we give up attacking Sapphire Territory, Red Dragon Territory will definitely send troops to suppress Sapphire Territory. When that happens, if Red Dragon Territory wants to attack our Obsidian Territory again, they won't need to go through the Dusk Jungle and can attack directly from Sapphire Territory."

(Question! Why didn't Red Dragon Territory use Sapphire Territory as a transit point to attack? Answer: If hundreds of people were to pass through your house to beat up your neighbor, would you let them pass through? So Sapphire Territory would definitely find an excuse, but if it were occupied, there would be no such problem.)

After listening to Reborret's analysis, some hot-tempered people scratched their heads frantically, trying to come up with a solution that would satisfy both parties.

"Civilization is in a dilemma, neither fighting nor not fighting. This is truly a cowardly Civilization!"

"Lord Reborret, I have another question! If we truly have captured both Sapphire Territory and Obsidian Territory, then what should we do if this so-called Red Dragon Territory wants to attack Sapphire Territory?"

An orc warrior asked again:

"Indeed, if time is stretched out indefinitely, we will likely be killed in the Sapphire Territory's defense battle, but you may not know this.

If Red Dragon Territory knew it would take a lot of time to take over Sapphire Territory, and then it would take even longer to attack Obsidian Territory than it did in Sapphire Territory, then Red Dragon Territory would definitely give up Sapphire Territory.

"Why?"

Someone asked in confusion.

"The reason I came to the Black Obsidian Territory is because the Red Dragon Territory wants to kill me, and the sooner the better."

"this……"

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Indeed, it was all because of Uma that Eric was able to leave the Red Dragon Territory smoothly. He was afraid of Uma's strength at the time, and the Obsidian Territory at that time was not the Black Stone Territory that Eric knew. No one could have imagined that such a huge monster would be born in this desolate and barren land in such a short time.

"So, Master, what should we do now?"

Lei Borui took a deep breath and then slowly said:

"We are fighting on two fronts. We must fight in Sapphire Territory and defend Obsidian Territory as well. We must fight against the Orc King's Court, the nobles of Sapphire Territory, and the cavalry of Red Dragon Territory!

"One blow is enough to prevent a hundred blows from coming. We must fight this battle with all our might, and win it with a beautiful fight."

For a moment, everyone present felt as if their brains were congested. Not only did they have to fight, but they had to fight everyone. This kind of courage really shocked them.

"Leida!"

Lei Da stood up directly at this time.

"How many reserve members does the Beast Puppet Heavy Artillery Brigade have now?"

Lei Da thought for a moment and immediately replied:

"Lord Reborret, there are currently thirty people still learning to operate the Gustav Cannon."

"Transfer all these thirty men to form a brand new unit called Thunderbolt!

Ankara, the Iron Hoof should have completed the production of twenty mortars."

Ankara also stood up and reported:

"There are now twenty-five of those guns."

"Leave five in Black Jade Town for the defenders. Where can we get so many shells from Gobnan and Zorn?"

Gobnan and Zorn have a very good relationship, so he knows the number of artillery shells very well.

"One hundred and eighty-six mortar shells, and seventeen Gustav's cannon shells."

“Okay, I’ll take 160 mortar shells and leave the rest for the territory.

"Lei Da, have the Thunder Squadron master the use of mortars within two days, and then we'll set out to attack Sapphire Territory."

"I guarantee to complete the task!" Lei Da said, patting his chest.

"Gobro, Lindy, prepare everything. In two days, the Green Forest Team and the Scavengers will all join the attack on Sapphire Territory."

All the members of the Green Forest Team and the Scavengers stood up and expressed their willingness to join the battle.

"Wori, fifty elite soldiers will be selected from the Eighth and Ninth Legions of the Myriad Beasts. You will command them. We will also have Lei Da's Sky-blasting Squad. I hope that as many of these eighty people as possible will return alive."

Wally also stood up and expressed his commitment to completing the task.

"Big Bear and Little Bear, you two need to defend the city with Strange Horn, so don't try to get Wally to choose you as a member of the expedition."

The laughing faces of Big Bear and Little Bear suddenly fell, but when they thought that the enemies they might encounter in the Black Jade Territory would be stronger, they did not complain.

"Master Lei, the Beast Puppet Heavy Artillery Brigade still needs you to command it, so you don't need to go. Although you have your men, the Gustav cannon you control is quite important after all."

Lei Da also expressed his understanding and also promised:

A declaration that the cannon is there as long as the person is alive, and the cannon will not be there even if the person dies.

"Selene and Uma, you should not go with them on this expedition."

Uma immediately rejected Reborret's proposal and said that someone must follow.

However, Reborret felt that the threat posed by the Orc King's Court was far greater than that of the Sapphire Territory, so a large number of combat forces had to be left behind.
