The incoming confidential secretary nodded: "Telegram from the Southern Army Group—"
Emperor: "Aren't they just creating trouble for me?"
The confidential secretary shut his mouth, his face pale.
The Emperor sighed: "What does the telegram say? Read it out loud!"
Confidential Secretary: "The Southern Army Group has lost contact with Livoric, it's speculated that the Ante Army has already occupied the city."
"Weren't there four divisions there?"
"But they were besieged by ten Ante Army divisions, all four were defeated."
The Emperor slammed his fist on the table: "Defeated? In Abawahan, the Anteans resisted to the last soldier! In the end, they were never defeated! And yet, our proud Prosen Army divisions were defeated?"
Celtic Marshal: "The enemy is defending their homeland, we are defending seized territory—"
"This is the Empire's territory now, our soldiers are also defending their homeland! The entire army needs to know this!"
Everyone present fell silent.
