Travel to another world and continue to be a boxer

Chapter 143 Responses of various countries (1)

King Salum of Phrygia realized the emergency when he saw the state minister, Duke Bartolo Tesserante, rushing in breathlessly.

"Your Majesty! Just now, there was news from the Magic Boxer. It is said that there are 25,000 troops in the west of Loajin ready to set off. We must discuss countermeasures immediately!"

Although the news was completely unexpected, the situation was extremely urgent.

"Rufan, do you still want to attack our Frigia!?" He summoned the sentry guards and gave instructions.

"Immediately send an envoy from the Border Guard. Strengthen the defense of Treba. Increase reconnaissance and surveillance. If you discover a large enemy force, immediately retreat and contact other forces. Wait for reinforcements from Lungiia."

“Yes, I will pass it on!”

After confirming the guard's answer, he sent out other guards. The king's office suddenly became lively, and many palace guards gathered here.

"Convene an emergency meeting immediately. Summon all important ministers to the first meeting room... and Count Steiner as well."

When Salum appeared in the conference room filled with important officials, everyone stood up and saluted him.

"Okay. This meeting is not about etiquette. Everyone is actively expressing their opinions. Political Secretary, please report."

When Bartro reported the contact from Ye Kai to Ye Kai and others, the conference room suddenly became noisy.

“Again!? Treba!”

"His country is already weak. Will we Phrygians submit to him?"

Although everyone has spoken harshly, no specific opinions have emerged yet.

"Secretary of War, how many troops do we need to form an offensive force?"

"The soldiers stationed outside the city gate can set out at any time. But considering that we need to form an army of 20,000, it will take us about two days."

The Secretary of War was considering using an army of 30,000 to meet the enemy, plus 10,000 troops from the surrounding border guards and 20,000 reinforcements from Lungiia.

After Dotav was arrested, the newly appointed Minister of War was Marquis Lumeiten. Although he was the head of a famous military family, he was known for his simple and reliable command.

Some people expressed concerns about handing military command to such a person, believing that the army sometimes needed bold leadership. However, due to Count Steiner's refusal to ask internal questions and with the assistance of Count Steiner, Margrave Lumeyten eventually became the Minister of War.

Even in the face of the domestic situation, it was suggested that 30,000 men should be used against an enemy force of 25,000. This decision was both for and against. Some thought that 10,000 men would be enough if rapid reinforcements were taken into account.

Of course, if the Secretary of War supported the attack with 30,000 troops, even if they were to be broken through, it would reduce the damage to the people. This was a debate that could not determine which plan was more correct, but the king's words determined the decision to send 20,000 reinforcements.

One of the important factors in this decision was the timeliness of the emergency report. During this period, even if it took time to organize the army, it would not cause the delay in the attack to become fatal.

While the enemy might be allowed to cross the border, it was thought that it could be confronted before intrusion became deep enough. Therefore, security measures should be chosen to ensure that the confrontation was conducted in a safe manner.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard in the conference room. It was Count Steiner who arrived.

As an important official, he spent almost all his time at home or in his station outside the city gate. Sometimes he would be stationed at the front line, but he was rarely seen wandering around the castle.

He was sweating at his residence when he received the call. He tidied himself up and rushed to the meeting room, but he was late. This was something everyone knew, so no one blamed him.

"I'm sorry I'm late, Your Majesty."

"Okay, it doesn't matter. We have just made a decision. You lead 20,000 people to meet them."

"Yes, sir! But where to?"

This is why Count Steiner is a pure soldier. As long as there is an order, he will execute it. Where to go and what the purpose is are secondary.

After listening to Marquis Lumeiten's detailed explanation, Count Steiner stamped his feet angrily: "King Treba, no matter how many times we repel him, he still does not repent. Let me crush his invading army this time too!"

"Very motivated, Dorrisden. I'll give you a remote controller. You must keep in close contact with the Secretary of War. Let Rufan know the power of our Phrygia!"

"Yes!"

There was a response in the conference room.

------------

"I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Klein. Are you available right now?"

The other party responded almost immediately, which surprised him a little.

"Wow, is that Cham? You sound pretty energetic. I'm in a meeting..."

“Sorry, I’ll call back.”

"No, it's okay... Your Majesty, it's Cham. Wait a moment... Sorry, I just called to ask. Because we just received first-hand news from Lungia."

"I see. That phone call was unnecessary."

"Not really. I just want more details. Where are you now?"

A little further north from Loajin, they were now switching to investigating the situation in Treba, but perhaps they should also pay more attention to the situation in Loajin?

"No, this is the right choice. In fact, we started sending personnel to infiltrate Treba four or five months ago, but the contact has been cut off recently. It seems to have been erased. The situation in Loazin is too suspicious. It's best not to get close."

These were spies sent into a fictitious enemy country. It was safe to say that they sent fairly experienced personnel.

If that person was wiped out, it would be no small matter. A large-scale manhunt could be expected. This means that this information may be related to the dispatch of troops, Chaim thought.

“I see. Is this information useful to us?”

"Anyway, it's too late now, right? This is just a result-oriented approach. Compared to this, now..."

"Very constructive. Personally, I think that regular soldiers only account for about 20%. The rest are militia, recruited adventurers, and some mercenaries."

"With this scale, Frigia will not fall behind. Treba is obviously attacking by surprise. They didn't even know that the strongest observer in the West was there. And the information network of this telepathic device. They completely misread the situation."

Treba's plan was to launch a sudden, large-scale attack and suppress it quickly. If it was discovered in advance and disrupted their expectations, and if this information was quickly transmitted to Phrygia, then it would have been a failure, Klein said.

"I hope so. Ah, now Yekai and Tulio just received a response from Phrygia. I'll take over."

"The nobleman from Phrygia. How is it?"

“Calmer than I thought. A little unexpected. … Ye Kai! Mr. Klein is here! Well, it seems they are in contact with others as well.”

"Oh, so I'm late. ... I took over, Mr. Klein. Did you hear that?"

“I respectfully thank Cham for his concern. Could you please express your gratitude to him? …Yes, Your Majesty, I am Ye Kai. Okay, here I come. …I will take over now.”

"Okay... Your Majesty, long time no see."

"Excuse me. Can you give me some news once in a while? You are so cold."

There is still room for improvement. Albert also responded to the situation lightly: "No major incident has occurred that will cause trouble to Your Majesty."

"I'll take it as your concern. After all, Senna will tell me everything, and I also know what's going on over there."

"Oh, then I'll have something to talk about when I get back."

"That's good. I'll ask about it carefully, so be prepared. Well, it's okay. Holzlein is considering intervening in this matter."

“Huh? Intervention?”

This was enough to surprise Ye Kai, and everyone present was waiting to hear it.
