On September 3, 126th year of the Universe Year, the Mieong Army sent many small units to infiltrate the area controlled by the Dion Army and cooperate with the guerrilla forces that had infiltrated the Dion Army's area earlier.

The Moying Holy Machine has been basically destroyed, and the bases that produce the Moying Holy Machine have all been taken over by the Tianyi Mercenary Group.

The Mo Ying Holy Machine had lost its source of production. It wasn't that the Dion Army was unwilling to reopen the Mo Ying Holy Machine production line, but that they simply didn't have enough necessary materials to manufacture it.

The Mie Weng troops also have several different stealth technologies to carry out infiltration and destruction.

Part of the transport to Markarth Fortress was ambushed.

Although the Dion Army sent guard troops or rescue troops immediately, the guerrilla troops of the Mie Weng Army would just hit and run, and would withdraw immediately if they could not destroy the resources of the transport troops in a short period of time.

Don't give the other party time to react.

On September 5, 126th year of the Universe Year, Long Fei celebrated his twin daughters’ birthday via remote video communication.

Long Fei sang birthday songs for the children with his wife through video call.

On September 6, 126 of the first year of the universe, Yelishade rejected the conscription proposals of some generals because the conscription targets were children under the age of 12.

Yelishiod made it clear that he would rather be defeated and die in battle than send children to the battlefield. He also issued an order that anyone who dared to propose forcibly conscripting children under the age of 12 would be shot immediately.

Moreover, another order was issued prohibiting the secret conscription of children under the age of 12. If anyone was found doing so, they would be shot immediately.

The Dion Army's grassroots forces are currently composed of teenagers, middle-aged and elderly people, with the middle-aged and elderly accounting for more than 70%, young soldiers accounting for no more than 5%, and the rest are teenagers.

…

There are already some capitulationists and defeatists within the Dion Army. They are very pessimistic about the current situation and believe that they can no longer defeat the Tianyi Mercenaries.

At the beginning, some surrenderists incited some people to surrender immediately once the Tianyi Mercenary Group attacked. These surrenderists were quickly dealt with by the Dion Army.

Although these capitulationists were intimidated, their pessimistic views were not changed. These capitulationists and defeatists began to secretly sell or give some intelligence and internal secrets to the Tianyi Mercenary Group.

This is why when the Tianyi Mercenary Group fights guerrilla warfare, in addition to causing losses to the enemy in the areas controlled by the enemy, they can even wipe out the Dion Army, which are small guerrilla forces.

All of this information was provided by these capitulationists and defeatists.

Long Fei was very happy to accept the intelligence and secrets provided by these capitulationists and defeatists, and he even ordered his men to try their best to satisfy these people's demands for as much money as possible, so that they would continue to dig out secrets and intelligence for them.

…

In addition to calling the leaders of his eight directly affiliated troops and the mother rabbit to his office, Long Fei also had two other mysterious people with their faces covered. The first one was a woman with a mask with a nine-tailed fox pattern. She was the leader of the [Yanying] unit, codenamed Nine-tailed Fox.

The other one is about 1.8 meters tall, with a sturdy build, and there is a knife pattern on his mask. He is the leader of the [Shadow Sword] unit, codenamed Kuijian, and is also one of Long Fei's dark side troops.

The nature of the work of the two dark forces, Shadow Sword and Shadow Knife, seems to be the same, but in fact it is different. The former infiltrates the target forces like spies to incite, assassinate, steal, etc.

The latter is completely based on anti-infiltration, counter-espionage, and anti-espionage work, capturing and investigating those spies and agents who have infiltrated the Lutianyi Group.

"Everyone, take a look at the current situation within the Dion Empire and tell us what you think."

Long Fei pushed all the projected file information in front of everyone, and everyone looked at the projected file information.

Li Xiucheng said: "It seems that there are cracks within them, and they seem to be falling apart."

Salamander said, "Be more confident and take away the "as if."

The other visible leaders looked at Black Rabbit, Nine-tailed Fox and Kui Jian.

Black Rabbit said: "Don't look at me. My troops are not good at infiltrating the target forces, and they will not use the strategy of sowing discord."

Long Fei said at this time: "The people who provided this information are not only the internal traitors of the Dion Empire, but also Yanying and Yingjian who infiltrated the interior to obtain this confidential information and understand their internal problems."

All the commanders of the visible forces were looking at the two commanders of the dark forces.

The nine-tailed fox said, "There is a lot of confidential information here. It is important information obtained by the sisters of our unit. Fadis is still in a coma. His daughter Gulischina is staying in the capital to deal with the internal instability for her brother. Some nobles now believe that the Dion Empire is on its last legs and are considering their way out. They sold the information in the hope that we can give them a way out."

Musaya snorted coldly: "Humph, in the final analysis, no matter if they are capitalists or nobles, when faced with national crisis, they always think of their own interests. On the contrary, those who protect the country are always the ordinary people."

Kui Jian said: "It was the officials and nobles who sold the information to us. On the contrary, the common people were not so easily turned against us. Currently, in addition to the houses and lands granted by Yelishaud, most of these common people are fighting with us for their houses and lands. Because for them, if the country is destroyed, whether their houses and lands will still be in their hands, they dare not guarantee it. Instead of doing this, it is better to defend their country to the death and keep the land and houses they own."

Thors asked: "Most people will defend their land and houses to the death, but what about the minority?"

"As for a small number of them, what they want is money. For them, if the country is destroyed, as long as they have money in their hands, they will not starve to death. Maybe they can even escape to other countries. These guys are not fools. The currency they want is the Earth Coin, because at present, the Earth Coin is the most stable international currency." Kui Jian replied.

The nine-tailed fox said at this time: "However, we also secretly handed over the evidence of some guys who betrayed the Dion Empire to the Dion Empire's procuratorate. We mixed the evidence handed over to them with those loyalists of the Dion Empire, and we also tampered with some evidence and framed these loyalists. At present, many people in the Dion Empire are in danger, which has also caused some loyalists to die in unjust cases."

Ramil said: "The instability within the Dion Empire is becoming more and more serious. I guess it has also affected the operations within the central government."

The nine-tailed fox said: "That's right, Guliszhina has discovered that some loyal ministers were wrongly killed, which led her to order the procuratorate to conduct repeated investigations and not to wrongly kill those loyal ministers."

Li Xiucheng asked, "What about those traitors you sold?"

"Of course, we framed the loyalists, because we secretly handed some of the evidence to the loyalists, asking them to report the traitors. This also caused many traitors to hate these loyalists, and some of them were assassinated by these traitors. In short, their people are now in a panic."

Kui Jian added, "It's not just these officials. The same is true for the military as well. We also used alienation tactics to frame others and assassination. Assassinations worked, but alienation tactics and framing others could not fool Yeli Shaode."

"However, there is still great instability within the Dion Army. Although the internal rifts are not as serious as those in the bureaucracy and the nobility, as long as the disintegration becomes increasingly disadvantageous on the battlefield, Yelishaud will not be able to suppress it even if he has greater personal charm," said Salamanda.
