"The military genius brought Zizhi Tongjian to a different world ()" Find the latest chapter!

Although Su Cheng was unwilling to give in, there was nothing he could do about it.

After all, he couldn't force his way into the Xilan Army's camp to see what the Xilan Army's muskets looked like.

The development of gun technology in the Britannia Empire can only be done slowly.

Compared to Su Cheng, El's chat with Su Cheng was much more pure.

El did not deliberately introduce a more sensitive topic like Su Cheng did.

From the beginning to the end, he was just chatting with Su Cheng about his family affairs.

…

…

Unknowingly, Su Cheng, El and their group had almost completed a lap around Belu City.

As the group of four people slowly approached their starting point, Su Cheng and El gradually became silent.

When they were about to complete a circle around Bailu City, Su Cheng and El had completely stopped talking.

Two people and four eyes have been staring closely at the majestic Bailu City.

The two people who didn't speak made the atmosphere more serious, and Alan and Gabriel who were following them couldn't help but become nervous.

"Brother." Alan couldn't stand the serious atmosphere and couldn't help but ask Su Cheng in front of him, "What's wrong? Why don't you two say anything?"

"...It's difficult to handle." Su Cheng did not answer Alan's question directly, but said something that neither Alan nor Gabriel could understand.

However - El understood what Su Cheng meant and even accepted what Su Cheng said.

"Yes." El said with a wry smile, "It's really difficult to handle... This Bailu City is much more troublesome than imagined..."

"El." Su Cheng asked, "Do you have any clever plan to attack Bailu City?"

"My mind went blank."

"What a coincidence...me too..."

…

…

Frankish Empire, Belu.

Allen, who was wearing a helmet and armor, was fully armed, holding the long sword at his waist, patrolling back and forth on the city wall.

While checking whether the generals on the city wall were guarding their respective posts, he also personally monitored the movements of the Britannia Army and Hiran Army outside the city.

Since the two armies arrived at Belu City and successfully joined forces, there has been no movement from the generals of the two armies.

The only sound was the sound of the flags erected in the camp.

"It's so quiet..." A general following Allen said softly, "It's so quiet that it makes people feel scared... Why haven't the Britannia Army and the Hiran Army attacked yet?"

"...In my opinion..." Allen answered in a calm tone without any emotion, "The reason why they haven't attacked yet is simply because that Su Cheng and that El are thinking about attacking this place. It’s a good idea for a city.”

"A good strategy?" The general twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered, "I don't think there is any good strategy that can break through this iron wall of ours."

"Don't be careless and underestimate the enemy!" Allen turned around and scolded the general in a rather stern tone, "I don't know what kind of commander that El is, but I know everything about Su Cheng! "

"That Su Cheng is the best at using all kinds of jaw-dropping strategies to turn the tide of the battle!"

"I wouldn't be surprised even if that Su Cheng led his troops to emerge from the ground and capture Bailu City from the inside!"

"Everyone, cheer me up!"

"Don't let me hear such words of contempt for the enemy again!"

Allen's shocking rebuke shocked all the generals following him.

The general who just met turned pale, and then immediately lowered his head and apologized to Allen:

"Coach! I'm very sorry. I will never do it again in the future!"

Although the general immediately apologized to Allen, the keen Allen still found a trace of resentment and disdain in the general's eyes.

As for why there was such emotion in this general’s eyes,

Allen knew it too.

The reason, in the final analysis, is because - Allen is from a civilian background.

Even if he now received the title of a noble thanks to Emperor Shade's gift, it could not change the fact that Allen was born as a commoner.

These generals who can follow Allen to inspect the city walls are all senior generals in the army and of noble origin.

As nobles, it is perfectly normal for them to feel resentful when being reprimanded by Allen, who was born as a commoner.

Allen didn't say much about the resentment and disdain in the general's eyes.

He just turned around silently and continued to patrol the city wall and monitor the Britannia Army and Hiran Army outside the city.

Allen has long been used to this kind of resentful and disdainful look.

He had neither the strength nor the time to delve into the disrespect his subordinates had shown him at this critical moment.

Allen has no unnecessary requirements for his subordinates.

He does not require his subordinates to respect him.

As long as he can obey his orders obediently, Allen will be satisfied...

…

…

After completing his inspection of the city wall and monitoring the enemy forces outside the city, Allen returned to the general headquarters.

As soon as he returned to the command room of the headquarters, a guard hurried up to him and reported to him:

"Coach Allen! There is a young woman and a young man at the gate of the headquarters! They say they are your wife and son and want to see you!"

"My wife and son?" Allen raised his eyebrows and then exclaimed.

Then, he hurried towards the gate of the headquarters.

After arriving at the gate of the headquarters, as expected - two familiar figures were standing at the gate, looking at him with smiles.

"Nifa? Adam? Why are you here?"

"Of course I'm here to see you!" Nifa said angrily, "Ellen, do you know how long it has been since you went home?"

"I know...but I also have my own reasons..."

Looking at Allen who looked embarrassed and guilty, Nifa chuckled.

"Okay, I don't mean to blame you. I understand your difficulties. The reason Adam and I are here is really just to see you and give you something you like to eat."

After saying that, Nifa winked at Adam beside her.

Adam, who understood the meaning of Nifa's eyes, immediately thrust a basket covered with a white cloth into Allen's arms.

"Father! It's all cheese made by mother for you!"

Cheese made by Nefa herself - Ellen's favorite food.

Alan looked flattered and carefully took the basket from Adam's hand.

"Thank you..." Allen pursed his lips, "I'm very happy that you can come see me... Thank you..."

"Why are you being polite to us?" Nifa smiled and patted Allen's shoulder angrily.

At this time, Adam suddenly asked Allen:

"Father! You will be able to drive away all the invaders outside the city! Right?"
