The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 728

"You know nothing!" Jerry said. "Even if Caspian succeeds in taking down Filren, we can't govern it well, and it'll only incite chaos in Diatoran."

"You're much more capable than the king, Dad. How do you know we won't succeed in governing Filren?" Zane asked.

"The king has managed to govern Diatoran well only because he has capable generals like Caspian working for him.

"When we oust Caspian from his position, we'll be without a capable general like him. Besides, other countries will set their sights on Diatoran," Jerry said.

"I get it now. With Caspian as general, we can expand our territory. If we are without him, it's better to maintain the status quo," Zane replied.

"You're right. Diatoran is already one of the biggest countries on this planet. We just need to gain control over this country," Jerry said.

"Would Tigra revolt if they knew that we gained control of the throne?" Kelvin asked worriedly.

Jerry shook his head. "It won't cause any problems. Tigra is insignificant, and we don't need to fear them at all. We need to think of a way to kill Caspian instead."

Zane asked hurriedly, "If Caspian is ousted from his position, other forces will surely take action against Diatoran!"

Jerry said sternly, "There's nothing to worry about. Diatoran is a country with plentiful talent. Besides, Caspian isn't the only man who can command armies and fight wars.

"If we don't kill Caspian, he'll surely take action against our family when he notices that something is off with His Majesty. He's not an easy opponent."

"You're right, Dad. Caspian is our number-one enemy. We can only relax after he's been dealt with," Zane said with a nod.

…

Cecilia had heard news about Caspian for a long time. They all knew that Caspian had saved Macy. Now, they were worried because Caspian had ventured into the central regions of Filren with his army.

…

Under Sylvia's command, the armored battalion attacked the capital of Filren from the outside. The Filrenian troops put on defense with all their might, making it difficult for the battalion to break through.

The armored battalion, led by Ylra, had wanted to fight to the death with the Filrenian reinforcements, but neither party emerged as the victor even after a few hours.

Only several dozen thousand Filrenian soldiers remained alive, and all the roads were stained red by blood.

Seeing that they would fail in defeating Ylra's squad, the reinforcements could only retreat immediately. They would rather retreat and defend against Caspian together with the soldiers in the capital than continue to engage in this fight to the death.

Otherwise, they would no longer have the opportunity to do so.

When Ylra noticed that the Filrenian reinforcements wanted to retreat, he ordered the soldiers to pursue them. He knew those soldiers needed to stay. Their return to the capital of Filren would not bode well for Caspian.

That was why he had to stop them here, even if it would cost him his life.

…

At the same time, the million-soldier army launched a pursuit operation as well.

As the capital of Filren was under attack by Caspian, Byron had already issued an emergency command to the generals, telling them to return to the capital to put up a defense immediately.

The Filrenian soldiers no longer had the desire to fight in this war. When the soldiers were in low spirits, they would be met by nothing but failure.

The fighter jets that came from West Aridlands were also engaging in battle against the Filrenian air forces. However, the Filrenian fighter jets were obviously inferior to those from Diatoran.

The Diatoranian army was advancing ferociously on all sides, thrashing Filren so hard they were at a loss on how to retaliate against Diatoran's attacks.
