The Legendary Man

Chapter 1208 Danger Of Change
The generol wos cleorly displeosed with Leslie's explonotion.
After oll, Leslie's first oction os commonder wos to deploy the fifty thousond members of Shusonno Army's odditionol troops into
Yoleview. She hod commonded them to enter the northeost ond invode Redlington in whot wos bosicolly o suicide mission.
Even though it hod been o drostic decision, she hod monoged to keep the two hundred thousond members of Remdik's Eostern
Allied Army south of River Onxy with only fifty thousond of their own troops.
The Eostern Allied Army hod ended up getting obout o doy's worth of time to rush toword the bottlefield, but they hod poid o
tremendous price for it.
In just twelve hours' time, the numbers of Shusonno Army's bockup troops hod been stricken down to no less thon twenty
thousond under the ottock of Remdik's Glocier Army ond Aizkovos' Arctic Army, who were both stotioned in Redlington.
The remoining twenty thousond members hod monoged to retreot successfully under Leslie's originol plon, but onybody who
knew even o little bit of militory worfore wos owore thot she hod olreody given up on them.
There were no bockup troops or ony odditionol resources for the fifty thousond thot hod been deployed to Redlington. Leslie
hodn't plonned for ony other neorby troops to move forword either.
The fifty thousond members of the troops might not hove been mortols, but they still could only be considered low-level
cultivotors.
There wos no woy they could hove crossed River Onxy ond mode it bock to Chonoeo with the hundreds of thousonds of enemy
soldiers on their toil.
There wos only one use for them ot thot point, which wos to die fighting Remdik.
Thot wos the second stoge of Leslie's plon—to use the remoining twenty thousond members ond continue invoding Redlington.
Her gool wos to hold bock Remdik's troops from coming into River Onxy for os long os possible.
Just like thot, fifty thousond people hod been sent to their deoths, ond it hod only token o couple of commonds.
Everyone protested ogoinst such o cold-heorted decision, but Leslie continued on os if she couldn't heor them.

Kronsboy of Doveston might not hove been os populoted os the first-rote seoside cities, but it wos still considered o populor
oreo.
Winter proved to be the seoson in which Kronsboy's tourism peoked. Bock then, every street ond olley would hove been lit up
brightly in preporotion for the tourists thot would hove been pouring in by then.
However, Kronsboy wos now os silent os o ghost town. There were borely ony lights on in ony of the houses.
The general was clearly displeased with Leslie's explanation.
After all, Leslie's first action as commander was to deploy the fifty thousand members of Shusonna Army's additional troops into
Yaleview. She had commanded them to enter the northeast and invade Redlington in what was basically a suicide mission.
Even though it had been a drastic decision, she had managed to keep the two hundred thousand members of Remdik's Eastern
Allied Army south of River Onxy with only fifty thousand of their own troops.
The Eastern Allied Army had ended up getting about a day's worth of time to rush toward the battlefield, but they had paid a
tremendous price for it.
In just twelve hours' time, the numbers of Shusonna Army's backup troops had been stricken down to no less than twenty
thousand under the attack of Remdik's Glacier Army and Aizkovos' Arctic Army, who were both stationed in Redlington.
The remaining twenty thousand members had managed to retreat successfully under Leslie's original plan, but anybody who
knew even a little bit of military warfare was aware that she had already given up on them.
There were no backup troops or any additional resources for the fifty thousand that had been deployed to Redlington. Leslie
hadn't planned for any other nearby troops to move forward either.
The fifty thousand members of the troops might not have been mortals, but they still could only be considered low-level
cultivators.
There was no way they could have crossed River Onxy and made it back to Chanaea with the hundreds of thousands of enemy
soldiers on their tail.
There was only one use for them at that point, which was to die fighting Remdik.
That was the second stage of Leslie's plan—to use the remaining twenty thousand members and continue invading Redlington.

Her goal was to hold back Remdik's troops from coming into River Onxy for as long as possible.
Just like that, fifty thousand people had been sent to their deaths, and it had only taken a couple of commands.
Everyone protested against such a cold-hearted decision, but Leslie continued on as if she couldn't hear them.
Kransbay of Doveston might not have been as populated as the first-rate seaside cities, but it was still considered a popular
area.
Winter proved to be the season in which Kransbay's tourism peaked. Back then, every street and alley would have been lit up
brightly in preparation for the tourists that would have been pouring in by then.
However, Kransbay was now as silent as a ghost town. There were barely any lights on in any of the houses.
The city was now under complete control of the Eastern Allied Army.
Leslie was leading a discussion with her team in an underground bunker in the northern part of Kransbay. They were currently
looking at a 3D model of the city as they discussed battle strategies.
All of a sudden, streaks of blue lightning began to show up against the heavy metal door of the strategy room.
“Protect the commander!” someone shouted in alarm.
A number of people crowded in front of Leslie and began to shield her as they moved back.
Boom!
The metal door fell to the ground with a resounding crash.
A bare-chested cultivator with electricity crackling across his skin was standing in the middle of the corridor.
Kane had arrived.
“Kane! Stop right now!” Terrence and Zachary yelled out.
The battle of River Onxy proved to cover a lot of ground. It managed to occupy the border from the northeast to the northwest of
Horbah.

Compared to Remdik, who had plenty of cultivators at their disposal, Asura's Office proved to be rather limited in that aspect—
especially in terms of Grandmaster Realm cultivators.
Zachary and the other two cultivators had been sent to the most important location.
After the news of fifty thousand members from Shusonna Army being thrown into Redlington had spread among those leading
the Eastern Allied Army, Kane had already been itching to get revenge on Leslie.
However, since they were in an extremely important stage of the battle they were in, Kane had managed to hold back his rage.
He commanded for a whole night before finally handing the troops over to the second commander-in-charge and returning to
Kransbay.
Both Terrence and Zachary had been able to predict Kane's reaction when they heard about Shusonna Army.
They had rushed over to Kransbay to stop him the very moment they were done with their respective jobs. However, they were
just a little bit too late.
By the time they reached Kransbay, Kane had already broken the door down.
Terrence and Zachary were rightly terrified. If anything happened to Leslie, the consequences would be intense.
Since she was the commander-in-chief, causing harm to her fell under the same category as treason to one's country.
“Kane! What do you think you're doing?” a besuited man who was standing in front of Leslie shouted loudly. His saber glinted in
his hand.
There were many other Superior Realm cultivators right behind him.
While they were all directors from different troops who were aiding Leslie in her plan, they also happened to be her guards in
case anything happened.
Sadly, Superior Realm cultivators were no match for Kane.
“What's wrong with you?” Kane snarled as tendrils of electricity sparked across his skin. “How could you abandon fifty thousand
people just like that? You're a real piece of work for a commander-in-chief. I'm going to make sure you pay for those fifty
thousand people you sacrificed.”

Kane's words had barely left his mouth when he sped toward Leslie. He was so fast that all they could see was a blurry
afterimage.
“Stop him!” the besuited young man from before called out. Before he could swing his saber, he was already knocked aside.
The other people behind him were struck and flew aside as well.
Leslie simply stood still. As a mortal, she had no way of seeing where Kane was. All she saw was simply a glowing figure who
was rushing toward her at light speed.
Her hair swayed with the wind caused by his speed as he arrived in front of her. He spread open a hand crackling with electricity
in front of Leslie but was thrown back toward the doorway at the very next second.
Kane crashed into the corridor while Zachary and Terrence landed in front of Leslie.
“It looks like we made it just in time,” Zachary said through gritted teeth as he held onto a magical rope.
Terrence opened his left hand, and a shield the size of his palm appeared. He tossed it gently above Leslie's head, and a
shimmering shield that looked like frosted glass surrounded her.
“Are you okay, Commander?”
A bead of sweat traced Terrence's nose and dripped off his face. Clearly, they had expended all of their energy to get here.
They technically shouldn't have abandoned their posts to go all the way to Kransbay.
However, they were well aware that no one could stop Kane now that both Tiger and Hades were unconscious. There was
simply no one else who could match him when he was that angry.
The Eight Kings of War was a symbol of strength in each of their respective garrisons.
When the fifty thousand supporting troops had been sent to Redlington in their suicide mission, it affected all of the garrisons.
If Kane still failed to control his anger and fueled the fire, then Shusonna Army might really be in trouble.
If that happened, then Kane had to die.
