The War Conference that was late

I——

The Fourth Army formed up on the eastern hill They had 500 cavalry and 4,000 infantry

To intercept them, the First Army set up formation at the foot of the hill 1,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry

Be it nu or equipment, the First Army had the upper hand

However, the gallant victories the Fourth Arh Britannian War had already spread across the entire Empire

Although Latreille would be coronated as the new emperor tomorrow, the imperial capital Versailles was shrouded in a tense atmosphere

The Fourth Army Headquarters——

Eric, the escort rifleman asked:

“Your Highness, what should we do?

Altina stood on the hill and stared down the First Army

“Charge them!”

“Ehhh!?”

“—— If I said that, I can iis’ face as he tries his very best to stop me If he was here, he would definitely object to this”

“Thatthe First Army is too rash And we don’t have the proper rationale to support our caht?”

“If they didn’t have a guilty conscience, why did theyfuss and mobilize their troops?”

“No no, we are the ones who brought an army here in the first place”

“Then I will question Latreille by myself!”

“Please don’t do that!”

Eric pleaded with a screech, then spoke bluntly

“Erm… Princess, that would be reckless If Field Marshall Latreille was unscrupulous, this will be akin to putting one’s head in the lion's mouth”

“I know”

While Altina was talking to Eric, two men walked towards the headquarters

There was Eddie who had the title of E Sparrow Knights

Although Eddie was assigned to stay at the fort, he had his own ideas about it and led the infantry that set off later and caught up with Altina

“Yo!” He raised a hand in greeting

“Argentina, how long do you plan to face off against them?”

“That’s e are discussing Eric said I can’t go question Latreille alone”

“Isn’t that obvious? How can we send out the top coer would normally be despatched”

Altina opened her eyes wide

“That surprised ave a proper opinion!?”

“I had soh, your words see down at me?”

Abidal Evra lowered his head

“My terrible apologies It is an 8 days journey from Fort Volks to the capital… I should have expected such a situation and proposed a way forward”

We had 8 days of time, so why couldn’t we decide on a plan? —— Altina reproached herself too

“Hmmm… If Latreille mobilize his army, ill retaliate, how about that?”

Eric sighed

“How can we attack them all of a sudden?”

“During civil war, it is common for both sides to remain at an impasse”

Eddie nodded in agreement

Altina pouted:

“T-Then there is nothing we can do!? I never fought a civil war before”

“I don’t have experience either…”

In the eyes of the cautious Eric, Altina’s action lacked careful thought and was full of risk

Thatopinions that run contrary to the cois…

Eric shut his mouth

Noris would control the flow of conversation at such aamok like an unreined wild horse

At this ht the tail of that horse

“Anyway, I think we should send a er first?”

“Is that enough? Then ill send one… who should we send?”

Altina asked for the other’s opinion

Eddie took a step backwards

“Not is’ plan, but Latreille seeainst me”

“That’s true You are the one who escaped hand in hand frouste”

“Ehh… That’s true”

Why are two grown ht in his heart

Although the First Prince Auguste was actually the Fifth Princess Felicia in disguise, so this wasn’t an act between two men

Not even the staff officers knew about the disguise Eric only knew because he had seen through Felicia’s crossdressing disguise

Leaving that aside, Eric pointed out other issues

“If we send Duke Eddie Fabio de Balzac who is faht not be able to know if he is a er or to seek a one on one duel…”

“No no, I don’t kill people”

Eddie hated blood flowing

He didn’t want to kill

Even so, he didn’t want to be killed either

Hence, he trained and obtained powerful skills to suppressed others without dying or killing the other party This was also thanks to his talent and the prowess of ‘Defendre Sept’

Altina crossed her arms

“I won’t let Eddie challenge them to duels!”

“No, I ht misunderstand…”

“If it’s a duel, then I should go!”
