The King of Knights in a Different World

In order to cooperate with the subsequent two-line pincer attack.

This was one of the reasons why she had not left with Qishen before.

"If they find out, they find out. I have done what I can do. If they find out or guess what I am thinking, there is nothing they can do about it.

However, even if they find out, the worst outcome is still like this.

They don't take the initiative to attack.

Although we are fishing, it is not a loss if the bait is not bitten away.”

Lucifer took two steps forward and placed his soldier under Demeter's front.

The deliberate gesture of this step made Demeter hesitate.

Atta's anxiety gradually became calmer, and she continued to speak.

"But, is there any problem with Leia? I heard that the emperor of Rome is already on his way to conquer the country in person."

"I have informed Leah that if necessary, we will focus on conserving our strength and retreat to Paris to stay with Agguiven."

Once Nero's army arrives, Lyon's military strength will be at an absolute disadvantage.

In addition, there is former Lyon defender Ganelon on the opposite side, and it is hard to say whether he can defend it.

For this reason, I also made two preparations.

"This would be equivalent to giving up the entire north of France.

The consequences of doing so were stated.

"Sometimes this is a necessary measure for the upcoming victory.

Well, there was a great military strategist in my hometown who once said this: If you save the land, you will lose it, and if you save it, you will lose it.

Lucifer expressed his opinion quite calmly.

In fact, once the situation arises.

I can't stay here any longer.

At that time, we can only find a way to fight Macedonia again, then make a truce and deal with Romania with all our strength.

Of course, if Rome dared to go deep, the supply line would definitely be stretched.

I have also given Leah suggestions in advance, asking her to continuously send out cavalry to attack the opponent's grain transport team to disrupt Rome's arrangement.

"Monarchs like you are rare.

More often than not, people on the battlefield are just numbers that can be consumed at will.

You will care about the life and death of your soldiers."

Demeter also spoke at this time.

"I am their supreme commander, and since they choose to trust me and entrust their lives to me, of course I have the obligation to try my best to bring them back alive.

In war, death is inevitable, and I believe that my subordinates will not be afraid of death, but because of this, I do not want them to waste their lives in meaningless places."

Lucifer calmly described his method of running the army.

I am not so naive that I can win without dying, but dying is one thing.

How to let them die peacefully is your own problem.

In order to win, he will not hesitate to use some troops as bait.

But that is a necessary approach, rather than rushing like a reckless man.

"It is precisely because of your characteristics that your subordinates are willing to hand over their lives to you."

Demeter put down the chess piece and put it down with a smile.

After a moment, she continued.

"Do you think they will come?"

She didn't know much about strategic matters, so she could only ask Lucifer.

"Although I can't say it will definitely happen, there is an 80% chance that it will!"

Lucifer didn't say die.

"80%"

“The country of Macedonia started as a small country and conquered and annexed various countries before becoming what it is now.

As early as thirteen years ago, Alexander defeated Persia shortly after he succeeded to the throne.

After that, we pursued all the way until we got the current Macedonia.

Their desire to win is beyond ordinary people, but it is precisely because of this that they come.

Because they have already been defeated twice at my hands."

For a king who inherited the throne at the age of sixteen, four years can only be considered just passed.

Just like on my side, five years have passed, but others still feel that they are a young king.

Of course, I am also young, that's right...

Facing such a genius and the talented generals under him, the shame brought by losing twice is far beyond ordinary people.

They are now like the European Emperor who failed in gambling, firmly believing that they will be able to win next time.

"Because I have already lost twice, you will not be reconciled if I don't win once."

Demeter seemed to understand something and spoke.

“That’s right to understand.

However, the more important reason is that it is related to their international status."

Lucifer said another reason at this time.

Compared with this reason, the previous reason can only be regarded as a battle of emotions.

This reason is even more deadly.

Just like now, Macedonia's two defeats made Helen feel that Macedonia was nothing more than that, so they took the opportunity to backstab him.

This was unbelievable before.

If a country makes all other countries feel easy to bully, then other countries will come to fight against it.

This is an invisible reputation, but it has a huge impact.

It would be like Britain in the past, if it hadn't defeated France so quickly.

There will be no peace for the next five years.

Even if it were delayed for a while, we would still face endless wars.

Macedonia now faces the same situation as Britain once did, especially when Alexander himself was dragged here.

"international status"

“Macedonia has always had more wins than losses before.

Especially since Alexander himself had no examples of defeat at all, at most it was...a draw.

But this time, they were defeated despite having more troops than me.

If Alexander himself doesn't try to defeat me once, in the eyes of other countries, Alexander will no longer be the conquering king he once was, but an old man defeated by young people."

Lucifer said jokingly.

The undefeated king is feared precisely because he is undefeated.

On the contrary, even if you only lose one out of a hundred games, in the eyes of others, the victory in ninety-nine games will be regarded as nothing.

The distance between zero and one is... so cruel.

"He is only thirty-three years old. He is not an old man at all."

Atta ruthlessly complained about Lucifer's statement.

"All right.

He is not an old man, but he who inherited the throne at the age of sixteen is already an elder to me.

Being defeated by a junior like me will make others think that he is old, which is a very dangerous thing for Macedonia."

If someone thinks Alexander is old, they will invade. As for whether Alexander is really old, they don't need to know, but they will take action if they think so.

At this point, the same goes for your own failure.

"Isn't it normal to be defeated by you? Think about it carefully. You have defeated the Roman legion commander, the French military god, and many nobles of the original Britain."

As he spoke, Atta felt that those people's thoughts were incomprehensible.

"But I didn't beat them.

Isn’t it?”

Unless you hit their face hard with your fist, they will never know how painful it is.

"Seems to be......"

"Atta, do you know that we humans have an impulse in our hearts called 'I can do it, I can do it too'."

"Ah, what is that? "Think about those suitors of yours. They were beaten so badly by you, but they still fought for Atta, just like suicidal rats."

"Understood.

To put it simply..., they think it's not that you are too strong, but that Alexander has become weak, right?"

Having said this, a trace of distress appeared on Atta's face.

Probably recalling the bad times.

Atta herself is the kind of candid lady...if she loses, she loses, and if she admits it, she'll be fine.

So I can't understand those people.

"Well, that's what it means."

Until now, there are still some people who think that what Lucifer did is nothing remarkable.

Isn't he just a god?

Let me drive the Cavalry God, and I can shoot him down.

Most of them think like this.

Only those who have been beaten personally know where the pain is.

"Is this what you call international relations?

Once people from other countries feel that Alexander has become weak and is no longer the Macedonian he once was, they will attack directly.

But the other way around.

Alexander defeated you.

Even if he didn't set up a defense, the opponent would not dare to attack."

Demeter thought about it and understood what it meant.

Although there are some changes in appearance, the quality remains the same.

Just like his two main gods, most people would not take action against Zeus if they were in a battle period.

This is a thought.

"Although it is a bit exaggerated.

But that's what it means.

After all, although most people now say they want to occupy the land, it is obviously impossible to conquer a powerful king just to occupy the land for a day.

That’s just thankless.”

"That's it, then you have to be careful."
