274F Empire Does Not Collapse Easily 2

“Okay, bye. ”

“What's to replace this dwarf? ”

“I already have. Soon you will be found. ”

“I see.”

Soon Natalia and Imir left the area with Suder.

Soon after, a huge explosion occurred at the Empire New Weapons Lab.

Where the explosion disappeared, the remains of Dwarf researcher Suder, along with gunpowder debris, were found with molten remains that resemble Suder.

Soon after, Suder mistakenly handled gunpowder and caused an explosion and died, the results of the investigation came back.

Natalia and Mir succeeded in impersonating Suder's death and taking him completely back to one of the Earl's hideouts.

Suder was dragged away without a sound of chitchat because he threatened to torture and kill you on the spot. But at the hideout.

At a good point, I asked him more impatiently.

“Where the hell am I! Where did you take me? ”

Natalia replied.

“One of the Earl's Lairs. ”

From the perspective of Suder, who does not even know who the Earl is, he did not hear the answer.

“Who's the Earl? And a hideout...... Can you pull me out like this? ”

“Don't worry. You'd already be a dead dwarf. ”

“What, what? ”

“I impersonated your death, and brought you here. Right now, you're more useful to us than that lab. ”

“Oh, no...

I still hadn't quite understood what Natalia meant, but one thing was certain.

Even when things go wrong, they go wrong.

“Please, let me go back! ”

“I can't do that. ”

“Can't do that, You didn't let me live to work for the Empire! 그런

Are you telling me to betray the Empire? ”

“That's right. Since I have abandoned the empire, you who I have brought should also abandon the empire. ”

Indeed, it was an oppressive logic, but with the exception of knowing the new weapon well, Suder was just a powerless dwarf who could not persuade Natalia.

Suder then hung on the imir who was by his side.

“Hey, hey! Help me! ”

Of course, Imir was never willing to help Suder.

“You're mistaken. ”

“What?"

“Natalia did what I wanted. That is, it is not Natalie's will that has brought you here, but my will. ”

“That, that......

I'm literally trapped in no way out. Suder, who fully understood the situation, sat down.

Imir told Suder again.

“Don't worry too much. Not the same as before,

No, I will do more than that. If you pledge your allegiance to us, we will certainly repay you. ”

“That, that's not the problem. My country will come after me as well as you...

“Didn't Natalia tell you? You're a dead dwarf in the United States of America. Four dead bodies delivered to the Empire, and that's it. You just do your best to help us here. ”

Everywhere I looked, there was no way out. Suder thought it was a useless question, but he added.

“… if I refuse? ”

“I'll torture you worse than you can imagine until you change your mind. I'll tear you to pieces if you don't change your mind. ”

“... I see. ”

Suder hesitates.

He definitely gave up his situation, but did not give up his life. I would do anything to betray the Empire to save my life right now.

Thus, Earl, and Imir and Talia have acquired experts who are well acquainted with new weapons as well as new ones. You know how to handle a gun, as well as repair it, You can really get it from the Empire

It was the best expert there was.

From that day on, training began. In Suder's hands were rifles, bombs, and bullets, and Suder began to teach the Earl commander's soldiers how to use new weapons.

“The principle of this gun is bow and arrow. If a bow uses arrows, a gun fires a bullet. Loading bullets like this... You can fire like this. ”

From the time of the Red Crystal tribe to the Imperial laboratory, Suder's total skill level was considerable and not lacking to teach others.

Thanks to you, we have one or two men under the Earl's command.

I can handle a gun.

Suder not only knew how to handle guns, but also how to handle bombs and grenades.

Grenades were much rarer than bullets, so they were trained separately, but not at all.

That way, the soldiers under the Earl Commander have mastered the art of guns and grenades, one by one. The lack of grenades led to a lack of training, but the number of soldiers who could handle only a few guns increased.

Soldiers who follow the darkness and the erl, not the emperor.

The thing that made Christian the most uncomfortable these days was not the biggest traitor. Rather, the presence of an enemy within the empire made him even more uncomfortable.

“Earl of Medellía……. Son of a bitch. ”

Christian, who was looking at the map of the situation of the anti-empire forces, spat out an insult, distorting his only eyes.

Christian still felt he had to maintain a long-term war against the rebels.

If possible, mobilize the troops at once, sweeping the rebels away without leaving any survivors behind.

It's ideal to win.

Christian's basic strategy was not to make it as easy as he said, but to spread a long time ago and completely mesh with the rebels so that none of them could escape.

At first, no one rebelled against Christian's strategy, 'the best traitor specialist in the empire.' However, as time went by and the situation with the insurgents seemed to be lacking, a voice of rebuttal began to appear from everywhere.

Especially when the Earl of Medea reacted to Christian static.

Of course, as empire troops spread across the continent, there was a limit to the amount of power available to the rebels, but it was also true that the limited amount of power overwhelmed the rebels.

Therefore, if Christian is truly capable, it was the Earl and the Earl's Clan's logic that a superior force should be dealt with as soon as possible.

He clearly knew that he had moved with such an uncomfortable thought and had even lost one of the Imperial Governors and the Imperial Inspectors.

The Earl's aim was obvious. And Christian, who is static and thorny,

I will make them look like the two flying men.

In this situation, if the emperor took Christian's side, the situation could be halved by itself. But the Emperor's choice was the opposite.

‘We can't wait any longer, so subdue the rebels soon. ’

This was the will of the Emperor. Then Kree Chan couldn't stand it any longer and had to go out on a quick leash.

‘What the hell, Your Majesty... What do you mean? If you'd ignored my strategy, you wouldn't have put me on this line in the first place. ’

Royban, Emperor of the Empire, known as the ‘Eternal Emperor’. I can't think of him who holds on to youth with magical power. He suddenly came to old age and made the wrong decision. Since the Earl's rebuttal had reached the imperial decree, he had no choice but to follow it quietly now.

‘War is war, but the Earl is suspicious. The security guard who sent me to confess to the Mirror Iron Fist is missing... He must be up to something. ’

Winning or losing the war was also a problem, but I was more worried that things would be released according to the Earl's intentions.

If it were not for the intention of the emperor, he could have withstood the intention of the earl, but refusing the intention of the emperor is a rebellious act in itself. I had to follow my personal feelings somehow.

Christian deployed his troops and came up with a strategy to do the best he could under the circumstances.

I did what I could, and completed the operation by asking for input from military officers, etc.

Ultimately, the primary goal was Luger, a city that could be called the frontier of empires and rebels.

There used to be an Imperial outpost in Luger Koh, but the rebels were forced to retreat powerlessly with a new weapon called 'Red Death’.

Thanks to this, the rebel army in the vicinity of Luger has become more reliable in defense. For the Empire, it is more difficult to attack.

Fortunately, 'Red Death’ has not appeared since shocked and terrified the Imperial Army. The Empire was surprised by the power of the weapon, but they found nothing but a new weapon dealer or weapon.

But if the Imperial Army walks into all-out war,

There is no law that says, "Red Death" should not appear again. No, if the situation becomes urgent, it must appear. In the Empire, we know very little about the new weapon, so there will be heavy casualties.

“As expected... I have no choice but to force our allies to make the ultimate sacrifice. ”

Christian, looking at the map, mutters bitterly.

An Imperial soldier's life was not at stake. I had to give my life for the Empire. Rather, I was afraid of losing my life to the Imperial Army.

I've been thinking about Christian. He wants a visitor.

He's here.

“Mr. President.”

“What's going on? ”

“I came from the Knights of Steel. ”

Knights of Steel. A sword and shield that only exists for the Emperor and operates by the Emperor's command.

There was only one reason for the Knights of Steel to ask to see Christian.

“Got it. Bring him in. ”

Soon, a knight in black armor entered his entire body. Name, from head to toe, of plate armor made of metal that covers the face completely

He was a knight of steel.

“Has the king sent you? ”

“Yes, Mr. President. ”

The knight's voice echoes sharply inside the helmet.

“What did the king say? ”

“A letter from the king. ”

Christian received a letter from the knight. After checking the Emperor's seal and tearing it off, a short note appeared.

The content was simple. The earl problem was to be taken care of by himself, and Christian asked to make progress even in disadvantaged situations.

“I see. I see. Tell His Majesty I will fulfill my duty. ”

“Yes, Mr. President. Sure."

The knight steps out of the room with his steel armor intact.

It was a letter at a short meeting, but Christian felt much better just by it.

“As expected of you. ”

Royban the Emperor made it clear. He said he'd take care of it. This was not unlike what he said about not letting the Earl go.

If the Emperor himself were to say so, he would have noticed the Count's anomaly.

Meaning.

Christian has yet to inform the Emperor himself of the signs of the Earl's Award. It was because the Emperor hated to harass others without any evidence.

So after gathering more evidence, I thought that the Earl would be suspicious, but now I don't have to.

If the Emperor has already begun to suspect, he will investigate and deal with it himself. If the Earl really has something else in mind, he'll be caught.

That made Christian's heart much lighter. Now you can

All I cared about was defeating the Rebels.

After much deliberation, Christian made a decision.

‘I will repay the rebels for what they have done. Infiltrate from within and from within to subdue the Rebels for a short time and capture Luger. And he drives it into all-out war against the region of Lothia. ’

It was not a decision made solely by personal thoughts. After discussing with his subordinates, the chiefs and officers, the operation of the Great River was already prepared.

After completing the operation, Christian began gathering troops.

It was a massive gathering of troops that could not be hidden, and such Imperial troop movements were enough to concentrate everyone's attention.

The Allied forces facing the Empire from the outside, even inside the Empire.
