Re:Zero - Starting a Different World Industry

Seeing William's beaming face, the two division commanders couldn't sit still any longer, because they knew what they were up to.

At the same time, they were certain that William had discovered their scheme.

However, they still showed no remorse and were still trying to drag William down with them.

But who is William?

He saw through the ugly faces of these people early on.

They are so well-behaved now not because they have realized their mistakes.

It's because they know they're about to die.

The soldiers of the National Defense Force never expected that they would be drawn into a meaningless struggle.

William looked at the two division commanders in front of him and spoke calmly.

Have you thought about your own ending?

The two division commanders exchanged a glance, seemingly wanting to play dumb.

"There has never been a precedent of a major general dying in battle before. How about I make sure you two go down in history?"

William spoke as if it were something trivial.

The two were instantly terrified.

Because they understood the unspoken meaning behind Future's words: that they should be killed off immediately.

You think you can just kill two generals like that?

Have you asked the leader for his opinion?

Lyon: Actually, I'm being lenient by not skinning you two alive. You two still want to live?

Don't you know that living as a general now means having three wishes?

Looking at the utterly calm William, they instantly understood what Leon meant.

But they still wanted to struggle.

"General William, we believe General Lane will achieve final victory! It's not too late for you to join us!"

The two generals wanted to bewitch William.

William almost laughed in anger when he heard this.

Dude, are you messing with me? Are you kidding me?

Who am I? I am the Commander of the Royal Guard!

Lyon's number one henchman!

Do you think I have any dignity if you do this?

William looked at them as if they were idiots.

The two of them instantly felt ashamed.

Because the two of them now look like they were recruited into the White Army in 49.

You know what a mess this is.

The two of them looked gloomy.

Because this is really too embarrassing.

The two men's clownish behavior amused William.

However, William had no intention of letting the two go.

Because when the two of them decided to follow Ryan, they had to pay the price for everything they had done.

It's just that the boomerang from back then hit them now.

Their promotion to division commander was inseparable from Ryan's influence.

When they choose to become Ryan's lackeys, Ryan will work for them and do everything he can to get them official positions.

When Ryan decided to reach out to where he shouldn't.

The information on these two people was already laid out in front of them.

Their entire biographical information was thoroughly dissected.

With their abilities, they could only ever reach the rank of brigade commander in their entire lives.

It's practically impossible for them to be promoted to division commander, given their respective abilities.

However, through Ryan's manipulation, the two of them were forced into becoming division commanders.

The main reason was that there were too many young officers in the National Defense Army at that time.

These young officers became the backbone of the national defense forces.

However, due to their lack of qualifications, they are unable to assume important responsibilities.

Moreover, even if they were appointed as high-ranking officers, many people would still be dissatisfied.

Therefore, only those with experience but no real ability are able to climb to the top.

However, as the war progressed and the country was established...

Many young generals have already served their time and it's time to try promoting them.

The promotion of William, Malgrove, Allen, and Goodry at that time was a test.

These individuals are all people who have made meritorious contributions and possess certain abilities.

With their achievements and abilities, there is no problem in them serving as generals.

Even so, they still faced opposition from some people when they were promoted.

This group, of course, consists of those with seniority.

There's a fixed quota for each position, and besides, it's impossible for the national defense force to expand now.

Therefore, it was natural for them to retire.

If they don't retire.

So where did these positions come from?

That's why they went to great lengths to prevent young generals from taking office.

The two men in front of him had gone from being generals in the National Defense Forces to being Ryan's lackeys.

William already knew the outcome for these two men.

He ignored the two clowns in front of him.

William silently stood up and then spoke.

"Since you won't listen to reason, then you'll have to suffer the consequences. We'll expose your affair to the public and let the people see just how despicable you bunch of people who hold positions without doing any work."

The two of them panicked immediately upon hearing this.

They tried to catch up with William, but were stopped by William's guards the next second.

"Mayors, would you like to come with us? The plane is already waiting 300 kilometers away, and the intelligence bureau will invite you for tea shortly!"

Upon hearing this, both of their faces turned deathly pale.

Going to the intelligence agency for tea? Do we even need to ask what kind of tea they're having?

It should be Purple Egg with Iron Whip Tea...

To live is a luxury, and to die is an even greater luxury!

The two men resigned themselves to their fate, and William took control of the two infantry divisions.

William has immediately withdrawn the two divisions for rest and reorganization.

At the same time, the logistics department was instructed to provide the soldiers of both divisions with sufficient food, and even an excess of fruit and nutritional supplements.

After a week of fighting, even in the last few days, they were short of ammunition and malnourished.

The combined physical and mental torment caused these soldiers to develop some illnesses they shouldn't have.

The two infantry divisions were taken back.

The Praetorian Guard continued its northward advance, while the Janissaries chose not to attack Dafirux.

William is not a fool.

Daphne Lux can't escape.

At this point, we should concentrate our superior forces to annihilate the orc legion surrounding Dafirux.

Most of these orc legions were in the wild, with only a small portion gathered in some strategic locations.

The reason why the National Defense Forces could not break through the encirclement of these people was that the tank units did not have enough fuel, and the armored group could not exert its power.

Things are different now; the Imperial Guard has arrived on the battlefield, and supply lines have been restored.

William borrowed all the armored troops from the two divisions and then decided to wipe out the orc army around Daphnilux in one fell swoop.

As for this city...

William did not rush to make a move.

If the surrounding area is completely cleared, a single armored brigade stationed there would be enough to wipe out the 5 elite troops inside.

If these 5 men dare to leave the city, the armored brigade will show them what it means to be crushed by armor.
