Iron Blood Conquers Expansion 314

Chapter 314 - Chapter 314 New Hierarchy-14

Afternoon sun.
More than 100 elves were banging their heads in the wilderness.
The bombing of Wonsan was an act of foolishness by the military.
It was a spirit that had to be handled only with the body without using mana.

"..."

Jiha stood on horseback in front of him and watched.
The elven soldiers were at a loss as they watched their superiors and commanders suffer humiliating punishments.

Elves are basically a race with a high nose.
Having lived a closed life, they insisted on their own rules, and often openly discriminated against other races.
It was said that he followed the underground that handled the quarity, but it wasn't unconditional loyalty.
No matter how scary it is, the thought of humans, what to do with them, was prevalent.

Return? Would I have to kill him for that?
This was a deep-rooted thought from the elves' command center to the end.


But the underground could kill.

I was realizing it deep inside now.


Their superiors, even Unique, are banging their heads and not moving.

"Is it hard?"
"..."

The elves banging their heads didn't say anything.

"Looks like it's not that hard. One more hour."
"... Ah."

Someone sighed
Leticia didn't even breathe, didn't say anything, but banged her head, but her eyes looking at her were sympathetic.
There are uniques who died fighting.
But there's never been a precedent where you had to hit your head on the ground and get stuck.
Even if it was a legend or an epic, it couldn't handle unique like this.


Different.
The head of the Red Union, underground is different.

This thought spread like a wave in the hearts of 4,000 people.

"If one guy goes down, he starts all over again."
"..."

The commander-level elves who had their heads planted were to die for.
It was only for a while that they were relieved that Leticia could be saved, and the Wonsan bombing was endless pain itself.
Above all, in front of the Dark Elves... This is a huge psychological humiliation.

Commander-level elves struggled in pain and shame.
There were sighs among the Elf soldiers, as well as Waris's soldiers, and even the Dark Elves.

It was refreshing at first to see an old enemy being humiliated.
Watching hundreds of people banging their heads and swaying, I felt uncomfortable in a corner of my heart.
I think they can be like that too.

"It's done."
"Yes! Commander!"

Daham quickly approached him and knelt down on his knees.

"How does it look to you?"
"..."

Daham hesitated, unable to answer quickly.
After trying to fathom the depths of the underground for a while, Daham spoke frankly.
He was honest as a soldier.

"It doesn't look very good, Commander."
"Why? You're a dark elf, don't you hate elves?"
"Of course it is. But I still don't want to see it very much."
"Because."

When Ji-ha repeatedly asked, Daham replied earnestly.

"Because it is not honorable."
"Then what is honorable in the military?"
"Fight and defeat the enemy by following orders from above."
"Yes, but they broke it."
"Yes, it is dishonorable."

The basement asked for help.

"It's to punish those who have committed dishonor, so why can't it be honorable?"
"It is also not honorable to persecute those who have already bowed their heads after admitting their wrongdoing."

He deliberately chose Daham to say this, the answer Jiha wanted.
Underground nodded.

"Good. Everyone wake up."
"..."
"If you don't wake up, you are disobeying orders."

The elves who were watching each other stood up one by one while stirring.
Leticia woke up last after everyone had woken up.

"Daham, that's a good thing, but I'll have to test you to see if you're not a talkative bastard and can protect your honor."
"I will follow your orders, Commander-in-Chief."
"Right now, take the 1,000 elves and 500 dark elves in front of you and go to Lingard. Go and follow Pyran's instructions and hold the line."
"..."

You mean to lead a mixed army of elves and dark elves?
Daham looked surprised at this unprecedented event, but Jiha said calmly.

"As for your lieutenant, choose one of them, Shu or that class, and take him with you. Departure is in an hour, we'll see if we fight honorably."
"All right. Commander!"

When Daham took the military rite, Jiha turned around.

"The other 2500 go back to Warris with me. Move everything."

As the words of the underground fell, the commanders exchanged glances with each other and moved hastily.

"1st company, 3rd company! Follow Daham!"
"Recover all camp construction equipment!"

While leaving Busan, only Leticia was standing there.
With her face covered in dirt, she did not dare to raise her head and only looked down at her feet.
Her whole body was covered in sweat, and she had a shabby look that was not unique.

"Leticia, you are also returning to Warris."
"Egg..."

Leticia tried to answer, but only nodded her head. She was barely holding her mind.

"..."

Ji-ha looked at her like that and turned her head.
Brang, whose eyes met, approached while wondering.

"Do you have any orders?"

The basement said calmly.

"Take care of Leticia out of sight of others."
"... Yes, I will take care of it."

Brando nodded her head quickly, as if she wasn't comfortable with her.
While the soldiers trembled in Busan, Ji-ha moved lightly and organized his thoughts.

'I'm almost done with this.'

He instilled in the elves and dark elves the idea that the orders of the underworld should never be disobeyed.
Even the lowest-ranking soldiers couldn't even dare to rebel against the underground.
There might be some who were dissatisfied with today's work, but that was something that could be sprouted separately.

While engraving the dignity of the military command to everyone, he also let them know that Ji-ha is a commander who can communicate by listening to Daham's advice and releasing him.

There are no exceptions whether it be Elves or Uniques if they violate military orders.
However, the leader is a man who reduces the punishment and reconsiders according to the admonitions of those around him.

I succeeded in engraving this seemingly contradictory proposition.


'It would be nice if the mixed forces performed well, but...'

Daham liked that he was loyal to orders, aside from his personal strength. That's why he entrusted command of a unit called the Dark Elves and the Mixed Army of the Elves.
The Underground planned to eventually create a united army under the banner of the Red Union.
Elves, Dark Elves, Orcs, and Humans, all as one group following the Red Union's banners and orders from the underworld.

'I'll use the picture you drew.'

The guy who wrote this double trolling must have thought that the basement would write an appeasement book while panicking.
However, Jiha tamed two proud races with a whip.
The copycat whose version of his plate has failed will prepare the next countermeasure... Jiha had no intention of giving him another chance.
Joji today



Daham left with 1500, and Jiha returned to Warris with the rest of 2500.
By evening time, we had arrived at a half-day point where we could see Warris in the distance.
If you overdo it, you can enter at dawn, but the basement stopped the army.

"Eat here and go to Warris tomorrow morning."

Following the order, the troops prepared lodging and moved around busily.
Jiha was sitting alone in the commander's barracks, looking at his papers.
While leading the military, he reviewed Waris' internal management and various commercial projects, while also checking the trends of public sentiment around him.

'There must have been two such cases in Warris. Go back and finish everything...'

The voices of the guards could be heard outside.

"Sir, a guest has come."
"Who are you?"

I can only guess who it is.

"I am an elf. He says his name is Godaf Breeden."
"Ask me to come in."

As the underground horse fell, the veil lifted and an elf youth entered.
Judging by the neat face and the splendidly well-dressed appearance, he was a guy who knew how to be pretty.

"Nice to see you. Commander, I am Godaf..."
"A market?"

The basement cut off the horse.
It was a male elf who insisted on returning, although he wondered if he would respond and help with the elves led by Leticia, the mayor of Lingard.
He was considered a resourceful man.

"Haha, you know. It's such an honor that you know me."
"I wasn't really interested, but I heard it."

Jiha said while looking at the documents.
Godaf said softly as he rubbed his palms.

"Actually, after hearing that the leader was an incomparable hero in Wordsland, I felt admiration from a distance..."
"Did you practice?"
"Yes?"
"It's coming out."

He put down the papers in the basement and looked up.

"Why don't flatterers have the same repertoire? I must say that I heard the name and wanted to see it once, or that I have adored it."
"No. Commander, I'm not a flatterer..."
"You didn't hit your head."

Starting with Leticia, Jiha was remembering each and every one of the people who had their heads pierced.
All of the commander-level figures were involved, but this guy was completely out of it.
To say he was a politician in the first place, he was not involved in the military formation.

"I also felt like a chimney, but since I'm not a soldier, I didn't think it was the right place for me to step out."
"Fuck me."
"... Yes?"
"Tell me that my heart was like a chimney. Fuck me here now."

Godaf showed a clumsy smile.

"Sir, that's not it..."
"If you pull more, your neck will fly."
"..."

Godaf's face hardened as he reached the subterranean calmly.
It's not an atmosphere that can be passed over.

Godaf hesitated, put his hands on the floor and prostrated himself, waiting for the underground to stop talking.
Stirring, he said with great effort.

"Sir, there seems to be a misunderstanding, but I..."
"I want to misunderstand that you are protesting."
"..."

As the basement calmly reached, Godaf sighed and hit his head.
If the guy with the hilt wants to do it, he should do it, so what?

"Hold your ass properly."
"..."

Ji-ha, who made Godaf headbutt, went back to paperwork and stamped for approval or rejected it.
Not even three minutes had passed, and a dying sound flowed from Godaf's mouth.

"Is it hard?"
"Yes, yes."
"It's still better than dying, right?"
"... Yes."

Godaf strained his voice and looked at the underground.
There were clear signs of thinking that the underground would not stop this torture sooner or how it would be passed on.

"If you take your head off, it separates you from your body."
“...”
"Everything has a time and a place. If you hit it when you want to fuck it, it will end well. Did you think it would be okay to be alone?"

Underground went over on purpose even after knowing that Godaf-looking guy wouldn't come out among the soldiers.
Godaf, who virtually instigated this retreat, completely lost the confidence of his soldiers by not taking responsibility.
From now on, Godaf's words will not work for the elves.

'On the contrary, the share price of Leticia, who took responsibility, went up...'

Soldiers had no choice but to follow their superiors, and since their fate would differ depending on the superior, they had no choice but to react sensitively.
Her uniqueness, Leticia, was punished for enduring her humiliation on their behalf, so her soldiers would look at her differently.
Commander-level elves should be alerted knowing that they could easily lose their uniqueness.
Underground also had in mind to raise Leticia's status among the elves with this incident.

'Finish this thing and go to Leticia...'

Jiha thought and opened her mouth.

"Who is behind it?"
"Yes?"
"There's no way you could have painted this picture by yourself."
"... Um, I don't know what you're talking about."
"If you don't know, you will die."

Underground said plainly.

"Did you join hands with the Dark Elves?"
"So what..."
"The Green Tree Clan, Sudaro and I made this painting,"

Godaf's mouth, which had been making excuses, stiffened.

It was as expected.
