The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 530

"West Aridlands have His Majesty personally supervising the war, along with their champion, Dax, leading the charge.

"They are currently locked in a battle, and Filren's forces wouldn't be able to make any breakthroughs for the time being. You don't have to worry about His Majesty's safety," Caspian explained.

Benjamin retorted, "Diatoran is currently surrounded by enemies from all directions. And yet Vadesia's and Astronia's forces at the south alone had stopped all movements.

"I believe they are just trying to waste our time and prevent us from helping others. We're just sitting ducks!"

"I think they shouldn't be able to hold back from attacking any longer as well," Caspian said

"What do you mean?"

Caspian began to analyze the current situation. "The current situation is clear. Now that our reinforcements are on their way, it would be the best opportunity for them to strike.

"They would surely launch the attack from the south, and only then would the entirety of Diatoran be under attack from all directions.

"If we were to send another batch of reinforcements to the west right now, we would not be able to defend ourselves here in the south. Losing both Southlake City and Garthram would be disastrous for us.

"It would not be wise for us to be surrounded by enemies from all sides. We have to retain our troops in the south to defeat Vadesia and Astronia's combined forces before we divert our forces to help out the others."

Benjamin nodded his head. "You're right. We should focus on defeating Vadesia and Astronia's combined forces before we think of the others."

The next moment, an officer ran up to the both of them.

"A report for the chief! The advance troops at the southern territorial waters have finally begun to move again!"

"Just as I thought, they're going to attack us now. Get ready for battle! We'll immediately launch our guided missiles the moment they enter our range of fire!" Caspian ordered.

"Yes, sir!" the officer answered and immediately ran off to relay the order.

Benjamin smiled and complemented Caspian, "You're such a wonderful strategist, Caspian. Our enemies really couldn't wait any longer."

"Do you think we can still defeat the enemy if we send reinforcements to the east?" Caspian asked.

"Our troop's morale is at an all-time high, and we already have planted plenty of guided missiles across the islands. We can defeat their advance troops as long as we follow the plan."

"Very well. Then, we shall notify Necros to allow Astronia and Vadesia's combined forces to come for us.

"We'll annihilate them once their troops enter our territory as well. Then, we'll finally be able to turn this around."

Caspian decided it would be better to lure the enemies into their territory rather than block them off at Necros.

Benjamin nodded his head. "Sure!"

Caspian then stood up to announce his decision to all the officers within the room. "Glory is upon us. War is coming! We will fight to the death to protect Diatoran!

"Anyone trying to run away will be branded as a traitor and will be executed on sight! We can't afford to lose this battle. Diatoran's fate depends on whether or not we can defend the south!"

The crowd answered in unison, "Yes, sir!"

…

At 3:00 am, the enemy advance troops had finally entered South Aridlands' range of fire.

Meanwhile, the main troop of the Astronian and Vadesian armies had also begun their march through Necros toward Diatoran.

Their advance troop attempted to breach through Diatoran defenses with a single-line formation.

"Fire!" Caspian ordered in the command room.

All the missile silos and hidden guided missiles began firing up at Caspian's order.

Some of the military bases on the islands had also launched their attack.

The next moment, missiles closed in toward the enemies from all directions.

Both Astronia and Vadesia had come prepared as they entered Diatoran's territory. They had already expected to be bombarded with defensive artillery upon stepping in.
