The End of the Southeast War (1)

█████████████

The Mobile Field Army that had been entangled by the imoogi and manticore’s strategy decided to take a gamble to break the deadlock.

Since the monsters were using the tactic of losing some in order to win [1], then they also had to use a strategy to break themselves free of that.

However, unless they were at the command, doing so was no easy feat either, as the monsters had much greater mobility.

To add to that, the monsters also had greater numbers.

In this situation where all the odds were stacked against them, the only thing the Mobile Field Army had the upper hand in was the master-level power.

And that was exactly what Iron decided to take advantage of.

“You must all have already recognised that continuing like this will do us no good. So we need to take some risks now.”

Iron spoke calmly through the communicator that was connected to the entire army. The soldiers remained silent as they waited for Iron’s next words.

“I will act as the decoy.”

“……”

The soldiers were rendered speechless at what he had said. They could only grit their teeth as they watched their commander sacrifice himself once again. They had all trained to within an inch of their life in order to be helpful during combat.

But eventually, when the time came, they could only depend on the commander.

“Everyone should know that time is not on our side.”

Iron continued with a serene look on his face, while looking towards command. He wished they had just a little more time, but unfortunately they were on the verge of ruin. They couldn’t continue to be satisfied with some trivial tactical wins while prolonging the battle. He had to make sure they were able to settle things in the southeast and move somewhere else before God’s orb broke.

Moreover, he did not like how they had racked up so much damage on their side.

The soldiers and commissioned officers he had trained with such effort were constantly dying.

Due to the monsters’ shocking reproductive rate, they could make up their numbers as soon as any of them died. But humans could not do the same. He had to put an end to the battle with one knockout move.

“To catch the enemy, you have to take an equivalent risk. So, just like we give our all during short-term battles, I will penetrate the enemy camp.”

At those words, the commanders clenched their teeth.

“Of course, those shrewd bastards will not appear until I have consumed a lot of my strength. So from the get-go, I will use all my power to sweep through their troops.”

A one-man operation of entering into a danger zone.

But, despite that, Iron did not waver.

“The main point of the operation is that you must exterminate all of the enemy troops completely before the imoogi and manticore kill me.”
