The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 689
Pablo trembled uncontrollably. Then, he staggered and stumbled out of central command.
He hastily gave the order to retreat.
The allied forces of the twenty-eight nations withdrew as quickly as they could.
At the same time, James called Henry and instructed him to lead the Black Dragon army toward Southern Plains City and
garrison it. Overnight, all armed forces of the twenty-eight nations had retreated. The Black Dragon army retook Southern Plains
City. In the wee hours of the morning the next day... James, who was in his Black Dragon robe, was in the conference room of
the Southern Plains military region. “Levi, lead the Black Dragon army and screen the perimeter in a 400-kilometer radius. If you
find any remaining enemy forces, shoot on sight.” “Understood.”
Levi instantly stood up and gave the order. Since James had given the allied forces of the twenty-eight nations time to withdraw,
he would have no mercy on those who remained.
It was now seven in the morning,
Most Soleans were already awake by this time.
Everyone woke up to shocking news.
“Breaking news! The allied forces of the twenty-eight nations have retreated. The Black Dragon army has retaken control of
Southern Plains City!”
The news spread throughout Sol and the rest of the world.
Everyone was taken aback.
What happened? How did the situation on the battlefield undergo such a drastic change overnight? Everyone was puzzled. They
watched the latest developments of the war intently and waited for the official report.
In the conference room of the Southern Plains’ military region...
Henry stood up and said, “Sir, there are many war reporters in the Southern Plains that wish to have an interview with you. They
want to know what happened last night. Should we accept their request and give them an explanation?” James replied

dismissively, “Nah, resolving the conflict while minimizing casualties and retaking Southern Plains City should suffice as an
explanation. Henry, I’m giving you a mission.”
“Your orders, sir?” “You will lead our envoys to the twenty-eight nations to negotiate with their heads-of-state. Tell each of them to
give up five cities as war reparations. If they refuse, the Black Dragon army will swoop in and annihilate them all.”
Henry froze. Hesitantly, he double-checked the order. “Are you for real?”
James threw him a glance. “What do you think?” “Understood.”
Henry straightened his back and spoke in a clear voice, “I will lead the envoys to the twenty eight nations. If I can’t resolve this
issue in three days, I’ll be back to receive my punishment.”
After receiving James’ orders, Henry swiftly left.
Meanwhile, James yawned.
He had not had a good night’s sleep in days. He then left the building in the military region. As he got on a convoy, he spoke to
the driver, “Take me to Black Dragon Palace.” “Understood.”
The driver nodded.
The Black Dragon Palace was located in the city area of Southern Plains City. It was a villa specifically constructed for the Black
Dragon army’s commander-in-chief. This villa was much grander and more elegant than the one at the House of Royals. At the
moment, many reporters gathered outside the Black Dragon Palace. They were here to have an interview with the Black Dragon.
They wanted to know what happened last night. Some were war reporters, while others were reporting on the situation on the
battlefield.
The convoy arrived at its destination. “Sir, there’s a crowd.”
James squinted his eyes. He had dozed off.
He slowly opened his eyes and lifted his head. Seeing the reporters gathered in front of the Black Dragon Palace, he frowned
and muttered, “They really are relentless.”
“Should we order the army to clear them out?”

James shook his head and said, “Never mind, just make a U-turn. Just find me a place to sleep in peace.”
The convoy turned back.
