Mr. Balas, after resting for a day, once again earnestly implored Anning to return to Paris.
Anning, without demurring, directly reported the military intelligence on Austria and the Sardinian Kingdom that he had personally scouted and then countered, "Tell me, who could replace me to command the Italian legions?"
Balas fell silent.
Remembering, Balas's military capability was actually decent, having quelled rebellions in places like Nice and established the Coastal Province, and later discovering Napoleon.
However, expecting Balas to suddenly become capable of withstanding the Sardinian Kingdom and the Holy Roman in Italy was practically impossible.
As expected, Balas hemmed and hawed for a long time without producing a reasonable answer.
Suddenly, he had an idea and retorted, "Could General Frost possibly handle an enemy force that is more than double his own?"
