Chapter 573 Puzzled
"That''s to say, Commander Rocky is willing tomand the Evian City''s troops. But why did he leave
so suddenly?" Commander Wang asked, confused and surprised.
Of course, it wasn''t just Commander Wang. The othermanders were just as puzzled. Rocky came
up with the battle n, but why did he only share it with Sabina and let her inform them?
"Rocky exined that his n isn''t for the Crimson Dragon Group. He just doesn''t want to see the
citizens of the Evian City homeless. He refused to give orders to the Evian City''s soldiers and they are
under mymand..." Sabina finally exined.
This left all themanders even more baffled than they already were. They had no idea what Rocky
was thinking. Since Sabina was carefully following the battle strategy he hadid out, Rocky still
Marin, on the other hand, still wasn''t quite sure what was going on. Although Rocky left without a trace,
Sabina insisted that Rocky had left them with a battle n for the Evian City''s soldiers. Although it
angered Marin because he never showed an ounce of care for the city, her rage had now dissipated.
"What the hell is he doing? This is so unlike him," Marin said as she pursed her lips together.
"Listen carefully. Here''s the n," Sabina announced as she gave themanders a cold, assured
nce. She continued, "Once the Timber Deity Empire begins its attack, Commander Wang will lead
two thousand troops to the south gate to fight. The other areas won''t require any defending. You and
your troops just need to lead the majority of the enemy soldiers to that specific location.
As for the other three Elite Commanders, they''ll be leading two thousand soldiers who''ll be waiting at
that spot. Once the timees, those soldiers in hiding will regroup with Commander Wang''s troops
and attack our enemies," Sabina exined to them all in detail.
"We are greatly outnumbered by our enemy. It might be a good idea to separate them by leading them
off in separate groups for our ambush. However, if they are on the alert, they might take the opportunity
to besiege us once they get inside the Evian City. By then we will be trapped and will not stand a
chance," retorted Commander Li, one of the Elite Commanders.
Some of themanders nodded in agreement.
"Once we lure the enemy troops to the designated position, we''ll proceed to blow up the south gate
wall," Sabina continued calmly.
"Bomb the city wall?" This shocked all themanders. The city wall was built to not only defend the
city from enemy invasions but to serve as a vantage point, an additional advantage for their troops.
Destroying it would mean that the city and its troops would be more vulnerable to attacks. The
Evian City would be conquered by the Timber Deity Empire''s troops in no time.
"Is Rocky insane? That wall serves as a barrier from the Timber Deity Empire troops—one of our
means of protection. Demolishing it would spell victory for the Timber Deity Empire and defeat for us,"
Commander Lin, one of the Elite Commanders, shouted in protest as he jumped off of his seat. He was
a highly experiencedmander who sessfully defended the Crimson Dragon Group and Evian
City multiple times before. In all his years as amander, he had never heard one n as foolish as

this. To him, it was no different than surrendering.
"This battle n is indeed a bit odd..." Commander Wang added in a more polite tone.
The rest of themanders agreed that this was akin to them digging their own graves. Rocky looked
like a maniac to them at this point.
"Yes. Once the city wall is destroyed, we will be more prone to the enemy''s attacks. However, the city
wall will still be upied by the enemy in less than two hours regardless of whether the wall stands or
not. You all know this very well, don''t you?" Sabina answered themanders with a cold gaze.
Her words left themanders speechless. They admitted that the troops within Evian City were
incapable of guarding the city wall.
"On the contrary, if we bomb the city wall, we can temporarily block the enemy troops'' entrance into the
Evian City. This will cause the troops trapped within the city wall to panic and allow us to seize the
opportunity of executing an ambush. If sessful, we''ll be able to cut down their energy and resources
effectively," Sabina exined to them once more.
"Even so, we won''t be able to guard the Evian City. Those troops would still easily outnumber our own
and attack the city. It''s too risky..."
"I agree. There are too many lives involved and we have too little resources. It will be impossible to win
with this strategy."
"What does Rocky intend to do anyway? He barely cared for the Evian City before. Why would he care
now? This all might be a trap!"
Immediately, themanders began to murmur and discuss the reliability of the n.
"Don''t be so quick to judge. Sabina hasn''t even finished exining the whole strategy yet!" Marin
eximed above the noise and stood up.
"Correct, Marin. I have only exined the first step of the n Rocky hase up with," Sabina
reiterated.
"The first step?" All themanders focused their attention back to Sabina.
"Yes. Now, as I was saying, the second step will be as follows. Fetch me a topographic map of Evian
City," Sabina ordered.
Soon, a detailed map of Evian City was handed over andid out before her.
"Once the first step ispleted, we move on to this—step two. We will make use of the Evian City''s
terrain. Its winding alleys and paths will be advantageous once wey down trapsmon in gueri
warfare. These will serve to slow the enemy down." Pointing at the map, Sabina added, "Tonight, we
will be arranging various traps in the streets and alleys nearest the south gate. I will leave Commander
Marin in charge of this."
"Right away." Upon hearing this, Marin nodded in approval. She was the first to leave the room.
