In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

Soon, Maria had hastily compiled several files.

Goliath, Neczrei, Tracys, the Lich, and Lamaren...

"The five of you will each lead 3,000 soldiers and prepare to harass the coalition forces."

Maria raised her head, looked at everyone present, and gave the order decisively.

"Lamaren and Goliath are attacking Victoria's army. Nieczrei, go and stop the Ursus army from approaching Victoria."

"The other two, you will bypass Leithania and attack the Gallic supply line from the direction of the Leithanian coalition forces."

"Disrupt trust among coalition forces."

There is no time to dwell on it too much. The longer the current situation is delayed, the more likely the coalition forces will realize that something is wrong and then launch the ceremony.

The best way is to find an opportunity to make the coalition forces suspicious of each other, and then withdraw on their own initiative!

Although the many generals present did not understand why Maria suddenly gave such a hasty order, they also understood that the other party was definitely not doing it for no reason.

She must have received some intelligence.

Without any hesitation, everyone stood up and chose to carry out the order.

Maria did not leave the other people present idle either.

Except for the Stone Winged Demon who was still responsible for training soldiers and strengthening defenses, Maria mobilized almost all of Kazdel's current soldiers to be responsible for logistics and interference, and spread false intelligence.

She couldn't give the coalition forces time to think, and had to use the most drastic measures to force them to hesitate and be suspicious.

Maria rubbed her brows as she watched the entire command room rapidly moving, her eyes solemn...

……

As Maria's order was issued, the whole situation began to surge again.

The Victorian army encountered attacks several times without any help from the Allied forces, and anti-war sentiment began to emerge. More and more people were suspicious and distrustful of their Allied comrades.

On the other hand, Ursus was also somewhat helpless.

They were closest to the Victorian army and dispatched their troops immediately after receiving the notification.

But unfortunately, they were facing N'Zrei, the god of war of the Sarkaz.

Its powerful strength becomes even more terrifying in the case of a sneak attack.

The troops sent by Ursus were all killed, which made Ursus feel very angry.

As for the Lethanians, they were reluctant to continue the attack, and they became even more furious after hearing the protest from the Gauls, saying that they had let the Sarkaz troops go.

When did they let their guard down?

Can we blame them for their own logistical problems?

He immediately started arguing with the other party.

Seeing that the situation was moving more and more in the direction Maria expected.

A piece of news slowly reached her ears...

286

Chapter 286: Disasters are always continuous.

"The Ursus army has begun to move?"

Hearing the report from the Stone-Winged Demon in front of her, Maria frowned slightly, revealing a bit of sharpness and vigilance.

Ursus begins to act?

why?

Admittedly, her current plan against the coalition forces does not include any arrangements against Ursus. In a sense, the other side is indeed the coalition force with the greatest ability to launch an attack on them.

But Maria didn't understand.

Why did Ursus suddenly take action when the other coalition forces did not move?

Aren’t they afraid that other coalition forces will make moves behind their backs?

Or are these people prepared not to harass us?

The answer seems to be neither.

Maria couldn't figure out what these people's intentions were with such reckless actions...

Even if she wanted to overestimate the enemy and they discovered her current plan and wanted to find a breakthrough, she still couldn't understand the idea of ​​leaving her back to an unreliable ally.

Too reckless.

While he was thinking, another soldier came hurriedly to the door.

After a brief consultation, he immediately set off and came into the tent.

As soon as the other party saw Maria, he immediately gave the information.

"Your Highness, Ursus soldiers have appeared outside Kazdel's first line of defense!"

Their speed was so fast that it was difficult for everyone to react.

"……I see."

Looking at the panicked and frightened eyes of the soldiers present, Maria made a decision in an instant.

In any case, since the enemy has arrived, they have no reason to hide.

"Bozhuocasti, go gather the troops and defend."

Maria has no intention of joining the battlefield at the moment. She simply gave orders to Wendigobozhukas, who did not go to the battlefield with Niezrei, to block the attack.

Such an order obviously surprised the other party.

After all, although he is famous for his bravery, he has only joined the battlefield and fought as a vanguard so far, and has never commanded a battle as a leader.

But as a disciple of Neczrei, Bozhukasti just remained silent for a while and then nodded firmly.

"As you wish, Your Highness!"

As he spoke, he turned around and hurriedly left the camp carrying his halberd.

Maria didn't relax either. Instead, she immediately arranged for the other commanders who remained in the camp to make good preparations in case of a real war with the Ursus coalition...

And even in this kind of oppression, a few days passed quickly...

Soon, news came back that Bozhukasti had displayed great prowess on the battlefield and repelled the Ursus vanguard.

Such news of victory naturally made the entire Kazdel feel joyful.

In the early stage, the coalition forces' fierce attack really suppressed all the Sarkaz people for too long.

Now that the situation has been improving, they have found an outlet for their suppressed emotions, and their belligerent emotions have reached a peak.

At the same time, as some of the most important people in this war, the names of Maria and Theresa gradually became known to the public.

Their prestige is gradually increasing.

Many people have even overlooked the fact that in addition to being the supreme leader during wartime, Maria is also the princess of the Banshee King's Court.

No one knows whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

But after the war, Maria received a secret report from Bozhukas...

"This time, there were only a small number of Ursus coalition infantrymen, and they didn't discover the enemy's main force..."

In other words, it seemed as if this victory was deliberately given to them by Ursus.

If such words were spoken elsewhere, they would naturally cause dissatisfaction among other leaders.

After all, this kind of victory itself is worth declaring.

But Maria wasn't one to bother with formalities.

After thinking about it for a while, she realized that something was wrong.

Among the four coalition forces, the bearmen of Ursus are considered the most warlike one, but at the same time, they are also the weakest one.

Even as we gradually enter the era of high-speed warships, they still rely on infantry as their main combat force.

Its number reached 150,000, making it the largest force in this multinational coalition army.

But they should also understand that compared with their individual combat power, the Sarkaz are arguably the strongest force in the world. Without high-speed warships, they will suffer the highest casualties when facing the Sarkaz.

If that’s the case, then why are they so anxious to send people to attack?

"Maybe... it's because of internal pressure?"

At the side, a stone-winged demon who was temporarily acting as Maria's guard asked cautiously.

After Maria looked over, he seemed to feel the pressure, but he still gritted his teeth and continued.

"I've heard that many problems have arisen within Ursus itself, with the nobles and the royal power engaged in an endless struggle. This expedition has been going on for almost two months now, and while the results are encouraging, they haven't gained any significant benefits... Perhaps this is causing problems within their factions?"

The Stone Winged Demon's guess was not unreasonable.

After all, they are not fools who can only fight with their heads down. They will also investigate the enemy's situation. Among the four major coalition forces, Leithania is half-forced and half-reluctant to send troops, because the other three coalition forces are afraid that the other party will stay where they are and pose a threat to their own territory.

The internal conflicts between Ursus and Gaul were too intense, and they urgently needed a target to vent these conflicts.

As for Victoria...we haven't found out her intentions yet.

It was also based on this analysis that he concluded that the Ursus coalition's sending of troops to test the waters was not a collective act, but a small move by some factions, and the purpose should be their domestic power struggle.

However, Maria did not seem particularly satisfied with the other party's answer.

She doesn't like to use guesswork to confirm something.

Speculations are just speculations after all. They can be used as a reference but not as a real conclusion.

Ultimately, they still couldn't understand why Ursus attacked.

but……

“These are not the main points right now.”

Maria shook her head.

In any case, Ursus has indeed taken action to attack.

Although they failed, it wouldn't take long for the news to reach the ears of other coalition forces.

Seeing that her temporary companions chose to move forward, Maria did not doubt that the others would still remain on the sidelines, but she also did not rule out the possibility that they would take this opportunity to regroup and prepare to reunite.

After all, Kal'tsit has been missing for so long, they should have realized that something is wrong.

A large part of the reason for their current struggle is that the national interests they represent do not allow them to retreat.

Once they have an excuse, they may unite again at any time!

The more she thought about it, the more conflicted Maria felt.

The guards around saw Maria begin to fall into deep thought, and they all lowered their heads and remained silent.

Not long after, a firm voice was heard from the door of the tent.

"Your Highness... Bozhukasti, I have fulfilled my mission."

"are you back?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Maria also raised her head slightly.

Bozhuocasti? He's looking for me now?

"Come in."

Although she was confused, Maria nodded slightly and let the other party into the conference room.

But this time he returned not alone.

Right next to him, there was a strange woman with two horns on her head.

The reason why it is strange is that there is a strange pattern on the other person's forehead that looks like eyes.

Although it was just something similar to a totem tattoo, when I looked at it, I could still feel that something was watching me.

And below, there is a pair of slightly empty blue eyes, the blue is very clear...

There are some traces of animal skins on the unique thick clothes, and they look like clothes that can only appear in some extremely cold place.
