"General Gode Johnson, do you have anything to say about the current war situation?"
The towering King Sven the Seventh of the Oden Kingdom raised his riding whip, pointing towards Helentz Castle, teetering in the midst of the wild floodwaters, his expression filled with pride.
He certainly had reason to be proud.
Before this war started, the Kingdom's top general, Gode Johnson, who had always been mature and prudent, inexplicably opposed waging war.
The old general's reasoning was simple, the Sussex Empire was very strong.
This reasoning made Sven the Seventh uncomfortable.
Very strong, huh?
Back then, the Odin Empire was stronger than the Sussex Empire is now, so what?
The Sussex Empire's naval forces were powerful; their army was also formidable, but how much force could they project across the strait?
It's one thing to bully a weak country like the Bagash Chiefdom across the sea, but it's much harder to defeat a resilient state like Oden.
