<h4>Chapter 1011: Follow My Commands</h4>


    Trantor: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales


    Zhao Fu had some information about the Half-Beasts, which was that they were half human and half wolf. They had humanoid bodies, wolf ears, and wolf tails. Their hands could turn into wolf ws, and they were quite well-built and fast as well.


    They also had an innate talent, which was that they had an incredibly powerful sense of smell. Dealing with them was quite difficult.


    Orcs and Half-Beasts were all Ounders, and Ounders usually had an advantage in might and speed. Humans were quite ordinary in that regard.


    For the other Kingdoms, they understood the advantage that the Half-Beasts had, so they did not want to make any trouble. More importantly, this was a personal grievance between the two Kingdoms as opposed to an invasion from the entire Half-Beast world, so they did not want to get involved.


    Zhao Fu led his 300 City Lords and went to the Li Kingdom’s army camp. The General responsible for defending this area had already received information about Zhao Fu. He was quite angry that he had to hand overall power to this outsider who had suddenly appeared while they were in an intense battle.


    No one would feel at ease about this; after all, switchingmanders in the middle of a battle was a military taboo and could cause morale to plummet.


    Zhao Fu led his people and entered the meeting tent. After seeing Zhao Fu, the people inside looked slightly displeased and did not seem very weing. There was a valiant-looking man sitting in the main seat. He looked like he was in his thirties and wore an azure set of armor.


    He coldly looked at Zhao Fu before saying, “What methods did you do to beguile the Empress Dowager to have her allow you toe here to take charge? Do you know the state of the battle? Do you know the strength of the other side?”


    Zhao Fu had already put on his ck cloak again, and hearing the General’s distrusting words, he replied calmly, “There’s no need for you to worry too much about this; all you need to do is follow mymands. If you disobey, don’t me me for showing no mercy.”


    This made everyone feel quite angry, but they all held it in. After all, Zhao Fu was someone sent by the higher-ups, and he had received the acknowledgement of both sides.


    Most people felt quite doubtful after hearing Zhao Fu’s confident words, but they could not disobey orders. As such, they could only follow Zhao Fu. However, they secretly hoped that Zhao Fu would make mistakes so that they could get rid of him.


    The General coldly harrumphed, walked down from his chair, and stood to the side. Zhao Fu walked up and sat down instead.


    Zhao Fu had a rough grasp of the situation. The Half-Beasts had already broken through the defensive lines and had conquered ten or so of the Li Kingdom’s regions. The Li Kingdom had quickly built defensive walls, barely stopping the Half Beasts’ assault.


    However, as time dragged on, the Half-Beasts sent more and more people, and their attacks became fiercer and fiercer. It was bing harder and harder for the Li Kingdom to defend, and soon, they might have to use their Nation Armament.


    Because the Half-Beasts’ Emperor had died as well, their Kingdom’s Fate was also in chaos. However, they had quickly settled their internal conflicts, and because their new Emperor had been acknowledged by the Royal Seal, they were able to attack the Li Kingdom with all of their forces.


    If it wasn’t for Zhao Fu’s arrival, the Li Kingdom still would not have been able to resolve their internal fighting, which may have led to their demise.


    Of course, Zhao Fu only had some rough knowledge, and he did not overestimate himself. He said to the General, “I need all reports, including information about the other side’s Generals.”


    This made the General feel quite startled, and he felt slightly less worried; it seemed that Zhao Fu was not an arrogant and reckless person, and perhaps he could resolve the Li Kingdom’s crisis. He now felt approved of Zhao Fu more and ordered people to bring out some detailed information.


    Zhao Fu earnestly read through the information, but soon, a soldier hurriedly ran in to report, “Sir, the Half-Beasts are ferociously attacking the middle defensive line, and the situation is quite dire. Please send reinforcements!”


    The General was about to give the order to send reinforcements but quickly caught himself. He was no longer in charge, so he could not give out orders.


    As such, everyone turned to look at Zhao Fu. After thinking for a while, Zhao Fu ordered, “Have the middle defensive line’s soldiers retreat and allow the Half-Beasts in. The other two defensive lines are to continue defending their locations and await further orders.”


    “Wait!” The General stopped the soldier and looked at Zhao Fu furiously as he said, “The middle line is defending against the Half-Beasts’ main force. Let alone not sending reinforcements, you’re having them withdraw? If they withdraw, the Half-Beasts will swarm in, and defending against them will be impossible. Even if we stop them, our losses will be too great.”


    The other people could not understand why Zhao Fu would give such an order either, so they also opposed him.


    Zhao Fu did not care too much about this and said calmly, “I understand this, but don’t worry too much and just follow my orders.”


    This made all of the Generals feel quite dissatisfied because they felt that those orders were absolutely wrong. If the middle defensive line retreated, the Li Kingdom would be in true danger.


    However, just as they were about to refuse again, an incredibly great might covered all of them, making them feel as if a massive rock was weighing down on their bodies. Some of the weaker Generals crumpled to the ground, a wave of coldness flowing through their bodies and hearts.


    Everyone looked at Zhao Fu in shock, and they understood why the higher-ups had sent him. This power exceeded anything they could imagine.


    “Any more objections?” Zhao Fu’s calm but slightly cold sounded out.


    Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to say anything.


    Following this, the middle defensive line started to retreat. The other side did not expect this at all and did not hold back as they rushed forwards and entered the inner regions of the Li Kingdom. The Half-Beasts from the other battlefields also surged over.


    There was now a massive gap in their defenses, and countless Half-Beasts swarmed in.


    It seemed like the Li Kingdom was going to be destroyed, and the ordinary soldiers were all terrified. They could not understand why the higher-ups had given such a stupid order.


    However, on the second day, the Li Kingdom started its counterattack. The two armies on the two sides started to attack from the sides and from behind, cutting off any path of retreat for the Half-Beasts.


    This made the Half-Beastsugh condescendingly – they had already reached the inner regions of the Li Kingdom, so what was the point of cutting off their retreat? Their army would be able to reach the center of the Li Kingdom and destroy it before dealing with them after.


    They had heard that the Li Kingdom had changed itsmander to an outsider. At first, they felt quite wary towards Zhao Fu, because after their many years of fighting, they knew that the Li Kingdom was not stupid.


    However, after their investigations, they found that the Li Kingdom had only obtained another 300 City Lords and did not gain any more soldiers. If they reached the inner regions, with the Li Kingdom’s power, it would be very difficult to stop them.
