The soldier who came to report the message suddenly opened his mouth wide and didn't know how to explain it to Greema for a moment.

Gree Ma quickly put on his clothes and walked out of the room with awesomeness.

As soon as he arrived in the square, Greema was also stunned.

What he saw was not the lively celebration scene, but the miserable defeat.

Commander Phoenix jumped off the horse's back with a blushing face and saluted, "Master Gree Horse..."

Greema asked angrily: "How could this happen? You more than 20,000 people were defeated by the Dragon Slayer's militia so quickly?"

Commander Phoenix hurriedly said, "No, no, we...we just made a small mistake."

"What a small mistake?" Greema asked.

Phoenix said helplessly: "There are many monster spiders in the dark forest. Our forward troops were besieged by monster spiders."

Greema said angrily: "You have more than 20,000 people, but you can't kill a group of monster spiders?"

Phoenix said helplessly: "Sir, you don't know. Although there are more than 20,000 people, the more people there are, the more people they can't be used. When our large troops support the past, all the monsters and spiders retreat."

Greema said: "Then you keep moving forward! Through the dark forest and break through the city of Carlyle! Isn't this what you said at the beginning?"

Phoenix said with a bitter face: "At that time... I didn't expect there would be so many monster spiders in the dark forest! Moreover, my vanguard troops suffered heavy losses, and many wounded people needed to be sent back for treatment. More importantly, we had only passed one-quarter of the dark forest at that time, and there were another three-quarters of the road that had not been taken. If we just broke through like this, the losses would probably be even more serious. When we really rushed to the front of Carlyle, our morale would be gone! Not to mention siege... "

"Bastard!" Greema rushed up in anger and slapped Phoenix in the face.

Phoenix endured the humiliation and stood there with his head down.

The soldiers around were all silent, and no one dared to come forward to stop or dissuade them.

In fact, Greema has no combat power, and his slap was not heavy. It hit Phoenix in the face, as if he was tickling Phoenix.

However, slapping in the face is never to hurt the other person, but to humiliate the other person.

If you cut off the other person's hands and feet with a knife, it is better to slap the other person in the face, and it will make the other person feel ashamed.

Especially slapping in public is definitely the biggest humiliation.

Phoenix's face didn't hurt, but this sense of humiliation made him unable to raise his head.

He is the commander now!

But in front of Greema, he was like a slave.

Greema was still unhappy and shouted: "Three days! Three days! I don't care what you have for you! No matter what you think of! In short, within three days, you must break through Carlyle City, must! must!"

Gree Ma put all his strength into it, slapped Phoenix twice in the face, and then turned around and left angrily.

Phoenix stood there with a red face, his fists clattering, his body stiffened, and he didn't move for a long time.

The adjutant next to him came up carefully, "...Sir, Lord Greema is gone."

"I know." Phoenix said in a deep voice.

The adjutant hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Sir, what should we do next?"

Phoenix said in despair: "I...I don't know either."

It was only then that he realized that he had really underestimated the war. Although he had been working on the border of Watchtower for more than ten years, he had been patronizing flattery for more than ten years and had no real understanding of the military situation around him.

The adjutant suggested: "...why, let's go and find Lord Faramir."

Phoenix was stunned for a moment, "Look for him? No, I have been humiliated in front of Greema. Are you still going to be humiliated for the second time?"

The adjutant immediately said, "I think Lord Ramir is not that kind of person. Besides, Lord Greema asked us to conquer Carlyle City within three days, but we are now very difficult to pass through the dark forest. If we don't think of a solution quickly, I'm afraid..."

Phoenix sighed, "What, this commander is really hard to be! Well, let's go and meet Lord Faramir, and hope he can give us advice."

The two immediately headed to the direction of the temporary barracks.

When they arrived at the gate of the temporary barracks, two fully armed guards of Baicheng stopped them.

"Oh, isn't this the commander?" One of the White City guards sneered and said, "Why did you come to us if you don't attack Carlyle City?"

Another Baicheng guard sneered: "Don't you know yet? I heard that the commander was defeated!"

"Oh? Is that right?" The first Baicheng guard laughed, "It's okay, it's siege, it's just that if you don't have to do it once, just come again."

The second Baicheng guard sneered, "What, I heard that they have not even passed the dark forest."

The two guards burst into laughter without any concealment.

Phoenix wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into it.

The adjutant accompanied the smile and said, "Two guards, we are here to ask for a meeting with Lord Faramir. Please inform us."

The first guard said coldly: "Sorry, our Lord Faramir is no longer the commander, and there is no obligation to help you."

The adjutant quickly said, "Master Guard, do you help or not, that's because Lord Faramir said, please let us see you. This is not only for us, but also for other coalition brothers! You can't bear it, watch the other brothers die in vain?"

The two guards looked at each other, and the first guard said coldly: "Okay, this is for the sake of the other coalition brothers, and it is not for you to face! I'll inform you, you are waiting here. As for whether Lord Faramir wants to see you, that's your problem."

"Yes, yes!" Phoenix and the adjutant nodded and bowed quickly.

The first guard then walked into the tent of the temporary military camp.

In the camp, Faramir was staring at the military map to view it.

The guard then bowed and said, "Sir, Phoenix is ​​asking for a meeting."

"Commander." Faramir said without raising his head.

The guard was stunned for a moment, "Sir, what did you say?"

"Commander." Faramir said in a deep voice: "Phoenix is ​​the commander, you should call him Lord Commander."

The guard sneered, "Just he is like that?"

Faramir raised his head, "It doesn't matter what he is, but since he is the commander, you have to call him "Master". This is the military rule."

"Yes." The guard lowered his head in shame.

Faramir sighed long, "Oh, there is still something wrong. Please come in."

"yes!"

The guard ran out immediately.
Chapter completed!
