Salute to the General novel Chapter 3259

The next day, the alliance convened again, discussing how to deal with the situation. Led by Wolfric, the Adrune War Gods once again made a strong statement. As the alliance's commander-in-chief, Nathan must lead by example and mobilize a large-scale Eurasian army to fight against the vampires. To achieve the goal, even the War God of Xyperia, Tyrell, stepped forward and said, “I think Mr. Welz and the others have a point.”

“Mr. Cross, as the commander-in-chief of the alliance, if you don't even have a decent unit under your command, not even a bit of military strength, how can we trust you, and how can we feel at ease entrusting the armies of our respective countries to you for deployment? Now, I declare that Xyperia will send ten thousand warriors to join the battle against the vampires. We hope, Mr. Cross, that you will also agree to dispatch five hundred thousand Eurasian warriors to participate in the war.”

Nathan's face turned gloomy, but he didn't say anything yet.

The Jetroina's God of War, Hideo, stepped forward and exclaimed, “That's right! We, Jetroina, will also send five thousand warriors to join the battle. Mr. Cross, you must also show your commitment. There are so many capable and talented warriors in Eurasia. You must send five hundred thousand people to demonstrate your sincerity. If you disagree, I suggest you reconsider being the commander-in-chief of the alliance.”

Many people at the scene chimed in agreement. Even Leopold and Eugene IV fell silent. They looked at Nathan, waiting to see how he would respond. At this moment, Wolfric stood up smugly and said to Nathan, “Mr. Cross, I have great respect for you personally. However, as the commander-in-chief of the alliance, the troops you can deploy are all warriors from our countries. You don't have a single combat-ready unit under your command. Isn't that quite unreasonable?” Nathan said coldly, “Haha! Right now, the threat of the vampires is directed at Adrune. I'm here to help you deal with them, yet you demand that I mobilize countless warriors from my homeland to protect your country. Don't you think that's too much?” Nathan said this, looked at Tyrell, Eiken, and others, and sneered.

“Jetroina has sent 5,000 troops, but the land area and population of Remdik are not much less than ours in Eurasia. They are only sending ten thousand troops. Why should I be required to send five hundred thousand troops from my nation? Could it be that you all consider yourselves as dependent territories of Eurasia, always relying on us to handle matters?”

A dependent territory?

Wolfric immediately denied the claim. In his opinion, Ariarica was the world's overlord. They would never become a dependent territory of Eurasia. He said solemnly, “Of course, we are not a dependent territory of Eurasia. You simply feel that our demands are excessive. If asking for 500,000 troops is too much, how many warriors are you willing to commit?” Nathan raised a finger and said calmly, “Ten thousand!” Upon hearing this, Colin, who was standing behind Nathan, was taken aback. He had no idea that Eurasia was planning to send troops, and this was no small matter.

Has Nathan discussed this with the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor and Cabinet? Wouldn't it be too reckless to agree to commit ten thousand troops like this?

Colin's face was filled with anxiety. He wanted to persuade Nathan to think twice.

Unfortunately, there was no opportunity for him to speak. Upon hearing that Nathan was only willing to commit ten thousand troops, Wolfric immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, “That's not enough. Even though the Xyperia War God has promised to send ten thousand troops, Mr. Cross, you are different from him. You are the commander-in-chief of the alliance, but committing only ten thousand troops is too few, far too few. You must increase the number.” Nathan asked with displeasure, “How many, then?”

Wolfric opened his mouth, wanting to make a ridiculous demand. Nathan coldly reminded him, “Be realistic and don't ask for a sky-high number, or it will backfire.”

Wolfric hesitated for a moment, then said solemnly, “Fifty thousand! You need to deploy at least fifty thousand warriors.” Nathan replied, “Thirty thousand! Stop haggling. This is my limit. Moreover, I assure you that the thirty thousand troops I've deployed are all truly capable of fighting.”

Upon hearing this, Wolfric finally stopped insisting. Nodding in agreement, he said, “Alright, if Mr. Cross can provide fifty thousand capable soldiers, then you will still be the commander-in-chief of the alliance. Moreover, we will follow your orders and wage war against the vampires another day.”

“When your warriors arrive, we can discuss launching an attack on the vampires.” Nathan nodded.

“Alright, let's call it a day!” After saying that, the meeting was adjourned. Nathan, along with Colin and Sevan, took the lead in leaving the alliance meeting room. Upon leaving the meeting room, Colin couldn't help but say in a low voice, “Mr. Cross, you're so silly. Joining the battle against the vampires could be described as having a one-in-ten chance of survival. Why did you agree to deploy thirty thousand troops? Why did you agree to let our Eurasian soldiers come here to die?”

Nathan asked with a smile, “I said I would commit thirty thousand combat-ready troops, but when did I say that the fighting force I'd be deploying would be our Eurasian soldiers?” Colin's eyes widened in surprise as he stuttered, “If not our own Eurasian warriors, where can we find thirty thousand warriors to fight for us?” Nathan smiled mysteriously and whispered, “Have you forgotten about those guys who actively came looking for jobs yesterday?”
