Jay chuckled. "Master Zack, a lone twig is easy to break, but bundle a few together and they become tough. The right setting is crucial for this plan to work. You may be able to fight against a few thousand soldiers from the Tiger and Wolf Armies. However, if they're spread out and their troops are increased, you may not be able to fight all of them."
Zack kept silent because he knew that what Jay said was justified.
Zack sneered, "Since you’re aware of this, what do you need me for? As long as you strategize the Tiger and Wolf Armies well, the military intelligence division will crumble before you. But you're being selfish. You moved the Tiger and Wolf Armies to the military intelligence division’s base to protect your son. The Yorks' stronghold is weak in their defense now, so you need me to comfort the public. This way, they won't make any complaints."
Jay's smiling face turned gloomy in an instant. "My son, Baby Robbie, did set out with 5,000 elite soldiers.... " i
Zack was furious. "What did you just say?"
Jay looked at Zack sharply and said with an arrogant expression on his face, "But he didn't take the Tiger
and Wolf Armies. He’s with ordinary elite soldiers."
A hint of confusion flashed through Master Zack's face...
"Why are you doing this?"
Jay said, "Angeline and I care deeply about our children's lives. However, we also feel responsible for every single parent in Yorks Stronghold, so we're willing to sacrifice our little family to protect the 100,000 villagers."
Master Zack's face slowly became red with shame.
Jay remained calm and steady throughout their entire conversation even though Zack had accused him of wrongdoings earlier.
When Jay defended himself, he was never impatient. I t was no wonder that the ruthless Grand Old Master Yorks loved this grandson so much.
