The Almighty Lord Caspian
Lord Chapter 522

Chapter 522 Strategic Mastermind 

Benjamin declared, “Leave it to me, Caspian. I’ll arrange for a group of special force members to weed out all the enemy spies and traitors within Southlake City! 

Caspian asked, “The inaction of the enemy’s advance troops will be detrimental for us if it continues dragging on. Anyone have any ideas on how we can incite the war to begin?” 

The crowd looked at each other in confusion as no one could come up with an 

answer. 

Benjamin explained, “I believe Astronia and Vadesia are just waiting for Estrya and Filren to launch their attack before they join in the fight.” 

Caspian smiled and replied, “I think so as well. I plan to eliminate their advance troops now, before Estrya launches their attack. After that, we can even divide some of the manpower from South Aridlands to assist other places in need.” 

A general officer stood up to give his comments, “We can pretend to send reinforcements to West Aridlands. Our enemies might fall for it, thinking that we’re thinning our numbers. They’ll then begin the attack. 

“With that, their submarines and battleships will finally be within range of our guided missiles!” 

Caspian thought for a while and replied, “Our enemies wouldn’t be so stupid to fall for that if we bring out just a small portion of our forces. 

“But then again, we can’t afford to move a large enough number to make it seem convincing either. Or we might not be able to defend ourselves when they do launch the attack.” 

“Then are we really just going to sit around and wait for our deaths?” 

Caspian explained, “Of course not. There’ll be a way out!” 

“What kind of plan do you have in mind, Chief Commander?” Benjamin asked as he curiously scanned Caspian. 

“We’ll move a portion of our troops away and convince our enemies to begin the attack!” 

Benjamin asked, “Where will the portion of troops be moved to?” 

Caspian smiled. “To Necros. They’ll serve as the reinforcements that Necros has

He had thought about the matter long ago. 

Benjamin asked, “But our enemies are already right at the doorstep of Southlake City! Can we really afford to send our troops to aid Necros right now?” 

“Don’t worry. Their advance troops are only one–third of their total military power, and the bulk of their army is still in Necros. We have plenty of hidden guided missiles to deal with their advance troops.” 

“Caspian, the enemy’s advance troops may be lesser in number, but they’re still a force to be reckoned with. We might not have an absolute chance for victory if we pull away part of our troops for Necros,” Benjamin explained his point of view as a fellow Champion of Diatoran. 

Caspian spelled out his thoughts. “War is inherently unpredictable. It’ll be far more dangerous if we wait for Estrya to strike. Any single line of defense being broken will be disastrous for Diatoran.” 

He understood Benjamin’s perspective and considerations, but war was never so simple to begin with. Hesitation would only lead to worse outcomes. 

“Estrya’s forces will eventually appear on our eastern borders. East Aridlands. may be in danger considering that their troops have been distributed to other places. We need to send reinforcements not only to Necros but East Aridlands as well.” 

The entirety of Diatoran was in a pretty bad spot, and they needed to make sure every step they took to protect the nation was the correct choice. 

Caspian explained, “We can’t focus solely on South Aridlands. The other borders also need our attention. It’s pointless to secure victory on just the southern battlefield alone; we need to make sure all of Diatoran’s borders never get broken into!” 

Benjamin nodded his head. “Caspian is right.” 

“Anyone else that still has any questions?” Caspian asked as he scanned the 

room. 

The crowd answered in unison, “No objections, sir!” 

Caspian then ordered, “Very well! I hereby order to split our troops into two. One will stand guard in South Aridlands while the other will be the reinforcements for Necros!” 

All the military officers immediately went to work. 

The next moment, the phone inside the command room started ringing.

The communications officer shouted, “Chief Commander, Ziko Granger, general of North Aridlands, is urgently looking for you!” 

Caspian stood up and answered the phone. “What is it, General Granger?” 

Ziko hurriedly answered, “Chief Commander, Estrya’s and Filren’s combined forces have suddenly launched an attack from the north!” 

Caspian was stunned as he wondered why even Estrya and Filren had started working together. 

It was bad news for Diatoran. 

“What’s the situation right now?” Caspian asked. 

Ziko reported, “We’re currently in combat with the enemy. They seem to be well prepared for the invasion. Their elite forces are much stronger than we expected! I’m afraid we can’t hold on much longer without Champion Benjamin.” 

“Hold North Aridlands at all cost! Losing the north right now will be far too disastrous for Diatoran at this moment. It’ll be far too disadvantageous for the rest of the war!” Caspian ordered. 

“Yes, sir!” Ziko answered without any hesitation. 

Caspian may not be Ziko’s direct superior, but he was both the chief commander of the current operation as well as the Diatoranian God of War. 

“Lord Caspian, may I ask if Champion Benjamin will be returning to North Aridlands? His appearance will help bolster the morale of our forces. Or perhaps. you have other plans in mind to help us?” Ziko asked. 

Caspian turned to look at Benjamin before replying, “Tell me about the current situation over there.” 

“Both Estrya’s and Filren’s forces are mobilizing around our borders. I’m about to lead our troops here to meet the enemies at the border for a fight to the death.” 

“Don’t act rashly just yet and listen to me. Split your troops into three groups and personally lead one of them to attack from the front. The other two groups will flank the enemies from the left and right. 

“Form an encirclement around the enemy troops and drive them into panic to easily secure the victory!” Caspian calmly explained. 

“I understand now. Thank you for the insight, Lord Caspian! I was worried that we might not be able to withstand the enemy’s combined forces. But now with 

+15 BONOS 

Benjamin nodded his head as he listened to the conversation. He came to realize why Caspian was hailed as the Diatoranian God of War. 

Caspian was a natural strategic mastermind. His simple plans and executions were able to bring great results in battle. 

The enemy troops would surely begin to panic as they would assume reinforcements had arrived when they watched Diatoran’s forces come from three different sides. 

Caspian hung up and turned to face the crowd once more. “I never expected Estrya and Filren to work together to attack North Aridlands. Estrya might be targeting East Aridlands next. We need to be prepared!”
