The Legendary Man novel Chapter 1051

The Legendary Man Chapter 1051-“Hayes?” Joshua was startled upon hearing Hayes’ voice. “Isn’t Prince of Diyouli Karl?”

“Karl was executed by Asura because of what happened in Mysonna,” answered Hayes plainly. “Now, I’m in charge of everything in Eastern Army.”

Joshua was shocked to learn Karl was executed. Even a Grandmaster Realm cultivator is a precious, vital member of an organization. Additionally, Jonathan and Karl are the only God Realm cultivators in the entire Asura’s Office. If it were up to me, there’s no way I would’ve executed him for any wrongdoing because of how powerful he is. I would’ve found a way to make him submit to me so I could use him. Yet, Jonathan killed him. I know there’s no way he executed Karl impulsively. After all, he’s the man who built the strongest organization in Chanaea in three years, capable of putting up a fight against the eight respectable families. There’s no doubt he must’ve weighed the pros and cons of doing so beforehand. I must admit, this new information has increased my admiration for him.

He didn’t spend too much time dwelling on that matter. Instead, he directly explained Remdik’s battle plan to Hayes in detail.

As Hayes stared at the organized intel on the table, he gritted his teeth. “We know about these already. What I don’t understand is why they haven’t launched a large-scale attack if they’ve already begun their destruction. After all, if both of their forces had attacked at the same time, we wouldn’t be able to stop them.”

Joshua was slightly taken aback before he asked anxiously, “How many locations that you know of have been taken by Remdik?”

“Three states and key transportation hubs in twenty-four urban areas. In total, over a hundred…” Furrowing his eyebrows, Hayes read the information in his hand.

Hades, who was standing at the side, had also fallen into deep thought. After listening to what Joshua said on the call, I thought of many possibilities. Joshua might’ve planned the destruction of the infrastructure or he had always been in contact with Tiger. However, based on their current conversation, there’s no way Joshua had any connection to what happened or have anything to do with Eastern Army. In that case, what we need to figure out right now is Remdik’s intentions as soon as possible.

After Hayes shared some intel with Joshua, the latter remained silent.

It wasn’t until more than ten seconds later that Joshua spoke again anxiously. “More than one hundred and ten… How many people have you sent to investigate those locations, Hayes?”

His words were like a lightning bolt striking Hayes’ and Hades’ minds.

“Crap! It’s a diversion tactic!” Hayes slapped his head, grabbed the communication device sitting next to him, and roared into it. “I want everyone who was sent out back to the base right now! Summon all of them back! The war’s about to start!”

The Remdikian’s plan was so simple that even a ten-year-old could figure it out. Yet, it slipped past Hayes’ and Hades’ attention because of how elementary it was.

Their plan to infiltrate the enemy’s state and destroy the infrastructure was an apparent scheme to isolate Eastern Army, preventing it from receiving any reinforcements or supplies.

However, if that were truly the case, then it would’ve been better for Remdik to launch a large-scale invasion at the same time. That way, Eastern Army would be stuck fighting an uphill battle.

With Eastern Army’s supply route severed, all Remdik needed to do was win the battle of attrition.

As mighty as Eastern Army was, they could only wait for their deaths to arrive once their food and ammunition ran out.

Even though soldiers without bullets and food were still soldiers, they would only become pointless sacrifices in the age of firearms.

There was no way their fists could protect themselves from Remdik cannons, after all.

However, in that scenario, Remdik would still suffer significant losses before Eastern Army was thoroughly defeated.

After all, both forces fought an even match in the battle of River Onxy seven years ago.

In Remdik, Eastern Army was known as the Chanaea wolf.

They knew a creature like that would resort to desperate measures to survive if driven to a corner.

Therefore, cutting off Eastern Army’s supply routes was never Remdik’s true intention.

Instead, what they wanted was to bait Eastern Army to send out Grandmaster Realm cultivators to restore peace in the other areas. That way, there would be fewer Grandmaster Realm cultivators stationed in Eastern Army.

At that moment, Hayes had sent out nearly three hundred of the four hundred-plus Alpha Warriors. Each team was led by a Beta Warrior to help restore order in those areas.

It wosn’t until more thon ten seconds loter thot Joshuo spoke ogoin onxiously. “More thon one hundred ond ten… How mony people hove you sent to investigote those locotions, Hoyes?”

His words were like o lightning bolt striking Hoyes’ ond Hodes’ minds.

“Crop! It’s o diversion toctic!” Hoyes slopped his heod, grobbed the communicotion device sitting next to him, ond roored into it. “I wont everyone who wos sent out bock to the bose right now! Summon oll of them bock! The wor’s obout to stort!”

The Remdikion’s plon wos so simple thot even o ten-yeor-old could figure it out. Yet, it slipped post Hoyes’ ond Hodes’ ottention becouse of how elementory it wos.

Their plon to infiltrote the enemy’s stote ond destroy the infrostructure wos on opporent scheme to isolote Eostern Army, preventing it from receiving ony reinforcements or supplies.

However, if thot were truly the cose, then it would’ve been better for Remdik to lounch o lorge-scole invosion ot the some time. Thot woy, Eostern Army would be stuck fighting on uphill bottle.

With Eostern Army’s supply route severed, oll Remdik needed to do wos win the bottle of ottrition.
