The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

"I also want you to prepare to receive the wounded citizens that will come from the Maritime City."

"You should plan the closing of the side streets to the General Hospital and build tents nearby so that we have more spaces," Minos said while looking at Dillian.

Minos' group had no way of knowing how many wounded people would arrive in Dry City in the next few days. But that number would probably be higher than the local capacity since tens of thousands of people from that city had decided to stay in the middle of the crossfire.

In any case, Minos wanted his city to have the most significant possible capacity to save the lives of the individuals who arrived here. After all, these people would become the vital labor force for local development!

Therefore, it was worth saving anyone who arrived in this city.

But the General Hospital could not receive everyone who would arrive in the next few days. So, Minos wanted to build these temporary places on the sides of that building.

That would make room for more people to be cared for simultaneously while not crowding the hospital's interior, where the most severe cases would receive priority.

On the other hand, this measure by Minos would not affect the care of the soldiers who would be injured in the conflict. That was because the soldiers who would fight in the Maritime City were basically people at the 5th stage, but the inhabitants who would arrive here would mostly be people below this stage.

As such, the two groups required experts with different ranks, making it possible for both to be attended to simultaneously without one damaging the other.

"Finally, gather the grade-1 pills that the army collected in the last few actions, specifically those healing ones, and take them to the General Hospital."

"We will give them to the people who arrive here and who will be in the greatest danger of death."

Hearing this, Dillian nodded to Minos, agreeing with this young man's order. "OK, young master. We've been waiting for that order, so it won't be hard for us to do all this."

Minos' plan was the best since most of these grade-1 pills were not of much use to army soldiers, specifically those of the healing type. That was because low-level soldiers were not allowed to leave Dry City.

Consequently, hardly any of them would need pills focused on healing, such as the ones Minos wanted to invest in the citizens coming from the Maritime City.

Hence, the army's losses in this action would be minimal.

On the other hand, the conflict in Maritime City would probably yield a lot for the Black Plain. At least a dozens times more than the investment Minos was willing to make in those injured citizens who would arrive here in the next few days.

Because of this, Dillian agreed with Minos' plans, and other soldiers there thought that such an action was worth a lot.

After they finished talking about the Maritime City, Abby, who was next to Minos, was the next to speak, bringing information regarding the enemy group allocated near the Yellow City.

"Recently, we received a message from the Miller family that 10,000 soldiers from the Brown family's Counter-Revolutionary Army are camped 205 kilometers south, 50 kilometers west of Yellow City." She said, sometimes looking at the soldiers in front of her at that table, sometimes at Minos.

"The Silva family is commanding this post. Otis Silva himself is leading that camp, being below only the supreme elder of the Brown family, London, the commander of the Counter-Revolutionary Army."

"Also, counting Otis Silva, 16 Spiritual Kings are in that place..." She mentioned a number almost entirely represented by people from the Silva family.

In fact, only one of those people was not, at least not anymore, part of Otis' family, but House Brown, General Silva.

"Oh?"

"So, that old man is in such a place?"

"It seems that that will probably be the first group to try to act against us..."

"On the other hand, the conditions for dealing with that group are not easy for us..."

Several soldiers in that room commented on it, while some already considered this group as one of the most difficult to act against.

Being a camp in the middle of nowhere, it would be difficult in such a place to use strategies similar to those used in the Maritime City by the soldiers under Eduard's command. And consequently, it would not be easy to act against that group!

At the very least, they could not count on any strategy to avoid a big fight in that place. There was certainly nothing they could do to avoid this if they wanted to act against Otis' group.

The area such a camp was in was ideal for a base, a place where the people of that post could defend themselves more effortlessly than their enemies would have when trying to attack them.

Besides, the numbers were very significant, and spiritual arrays that were outside such a camp would hardly work against the people of that place.

After all, although the arrays were very useful, using such things against opponents of the same level or on alert would be difficult for this to fulfill its purposes.

So, it would be difficult for the Black Plain Army to use such strategies against Otis' group.

Minos then turned to the side Abby was standing on and asked. "Are there any Miller family members with that group?"

"No. Since the Silva family leads that group, my family members were sent to other groups. In particular, the one located in a village east of Dry City, on the edge of the Black Plain territory."

"Oh? I see..."

"Well, if that's the way it is, we will not act the same way in this post. So, we will do something just to attract the attention of the enemies, but our task there will be to fail in that village east of here."

"As for that group near Yellow City, I want to use a strategy similar to what we did against those previously four Silva family groups a few weeks ago."

"You mean?" Abby asked without understanding.

"We will use some soldiers, particularly those from Yellow City's secret base, to distract that enemy group's many Spiritual Generals."

"They will use some defensive and offensive arrays to temporarily distract the weaker people in that place while I and some allies deal with those 16 Spiritual Kings."

"Oh?"

"So, this is how the young master thinks about dealing with this group..."

"It does look better. If we're going to try to take out that many Spiritual Generals, we'll invariably lose a lot of Sergeants!"

"But in doing so, we will forever cripple the Silva family and greatly weaken that group near Yellow City!"

"Hmm, the young master is right in thinking of that plan."

"By doing this, the enemy group near Yellow City will be at least a few days or weeks leaderless, and one way or another, it will prevent them from acting!" Grayson commented as he pondered the inability of a group to act without its leaders.

As much as the rest of those people would still be dangerous when added together, would each of them have the courage to act without a leader who could hold off the stronger enemies while they fought?

That is, if two enemy groups met on the battlefield, the one with the weaker leader would have the slightest chance of survival!

Obviously, there were alternatives to bypass the differences at level, but after a specific limit, this would be useless.

Therefore, a group without a strong leader, someone at the 6th stage, would probably try not to act to avoid encountering enemies with people of such a cultivation power!

Hence, killing enemy Spiritual Kings could temporarily block the actions of those thousands of Spiritual Generals!

"And when will we do that?" Abby asked as she looked eye to eye with her boyfriend.

"We will act in a week at the most. We will get all the soldiers from that secret base ready to act in this period."

"As soon as our action in Maritime City unfolds, we will attack that enemy camp!" He said this with a smile on his face, eager to face that person on the battlefield.

He had plans to deal with Otis, finally getting revenge for his father's death!

Minos then looked at one of the administrative soldiers in that place and said. "Start preparing an execution platform in front of my mansion."

"We will hold a public execution a few days after we capture Otis Silva."
