Chapter 585 Strange formation (2)
?When the two people in the room heard this, they immediately turned to look at the one that had suddenly come in.
Seeing this person, the two of them immediately bowed their heads and said, “Your highness, what are you doing here?”
The person that walked in that had been called your highness was the second prince of their Midra Kingdom. The two that had been talking in the room were the general and vice general of this army.
So of course they bowed the moment that they saw the second prince. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via /n/ov/el/b/in.
The second prince just waved his hand and said, “Technically, I’m not here, so don’t say anything like that.”
Both the general and the vice general revealed bitter smiles when they heard this.
It was clear that they were familiar with the personality of the second prince, so they weren’t surprised to see him doing something like this.
However, it wasn’t as if they could just indulge the second prince on his whims since this was a battlefield.
So the general said, “Your highness, please return to the capital right away. This place isn’t safe.”
The second prince didn’t care at all as he said, “Don’t worry, I’ll only be observing from afar. I was curious about the person who was appointed as the new general of the dreaded army of the fourth prince.”
The general and the vice general both gave disdainful snorts before the general said, “Your highness, it’s clear that you’ve made a wasted trip. Just one glance is enough to tell that the other side is an amateur who knows nothing of war. This will end instantly, so much so that it would be an embarrassment to us to show this battle to your highness.”
The vice general nodded in agreement, but the look on the second prince made it clear that he didn’t think the same.
The second prince just shook his head and said with a sigh, “General, sometimes underestimating the enemy too much is detrimental. I hope that you will at least keep a flexible mind when facing the enemy later.”
The general and vice general looked at each other with disdainful looks in their eyes, but they still nodded in agreement since it was the second prince that said this.
At the very least, they had to show some kind of respect to the second prince when he said all this.
The general then said, “Your highness, we will make sure to…”
Before he could finish what he was saying, the flap to the tent they were in was thrown open and there was someone else in military uniform that came in.
After coming in, they immediately found the general and fell onto one knee in front of him as they said, “General, there’s an urgent situation!”
The general glared at the officer that came in before cautiously looking at the second prince.
Seeing the second prince just casually waving his hand as if telling him to do what he needed to do, the general kicked that person and said, “I already told you to be less agitated! There’s no need to freak out over every little thing!”
The officer revealed a bitter look, but he didn’t complain as he let the general discipline him like this. It was almost as if he was already used to being treated this way by the general.
When the general was done, he said, “What is it? What is the situation?”
The officer fell to one knee again and said in a calm voice, “The enemy is moving into formation.”
The general revealed a surprised look before kicking this officer again and saying, “Why didn’t you say that earlier!”
Without even waiting for the officer to say anything, the general and the vice general left the tent.
The officer’s bitter look became even more bitter as he thought, “General, you’re the one who told me not to freak out over every little thing!”
It was only the officer and the second prince who were left in this tent.
The officer didn’t recognize the second prince, but he was certain that this person wasn’t a normal person since he was in the tent with the general.
The second prince just ignored the officer as he had a look of thought on his face.
After a while, he went out of the tent to follow after the general and vice general.
The officer was just left there with an awkward look on his face before following behind them.
After the general and vice general rushed out, they immediately went to the observation tower that had been set up in their tent.
After coming up, they took the binoculars that were there and started looking at the enemy formation.
As they watched the enemy in the distance, they had very complicated looks on their faces.
Then after a long moment of silence, both of them couldn’t help saying, “That’s it? That’s all they have?”
The complicated look on their faces wasn’t because they had realized that they had underestimated the enemy, but rather that they had overestimated their enemy. The formation that they had taken could only be described as…
Sloppy and disorganized!
This was something even a student in the military academy could have arranged better, but here was the enemy taking this formation in front of them.
As they were in a daze over the enemy formation, the second prince came up and looked at the enemy formation as well.
After a while, he said, “That’s definitely interesting.”
“Interesting?” The general and vice general repeated before the general said, “It’s clear that we’re being looked down on. This is clearly the work of an amateur. Do they really think that they can win like this?”
The vice general was even more incited as he said, “Right, we have to show them our power or they’ll keep looking down on us! Let’s set out right now and crush them!”
The general nodded in agreement.
The second prince looked like he wanted to say something, but he didn’t say it in the end. Instead, he said, “Alright, but please remember what I said earlier.”
The general had a serious look on his face as he said, “Your highness, don’t worry. We will make them regret this decision.”
The second prince just gave a slight nod in agreement, but the expression on his face didn’t change.
