Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO
The representatives of the Black Wolf exchanged a look, not expecting Emmanuel to be so forward about it.
“You seem pretty calm,” Quell interjected. “Are you giving up on the plan?” Her comment drew everyone’s attention to him. After all, the Solar Group and the Frost and Flame Alliance, the two strongest supporters of his plan, were thrown into the dungeon. Therefore, the plan to overthrow the Airspace Group had failed in their eyes. They agreed that the alliance was in a desperate situation.
“Not at all,” Emmanuel responded confidently.
“Please have faith in me, everyone. The alliance will regroup soon and be even stronger than before!” Silence enveloped the room as everyone exchanged uncertain glances.
He continued passionately, “All revolutions throughout history hadn’t succeeded in one go. It’s a matter of repetition. If you desire freedom, you must persist and turn it into a belief. You can trust me. I’ll lead you to ultimate victory.” He might be oblivious to women’s feelings for him, but having served in the Northern Region for years made him a good inspirer.
Vachon rose and enthusiastically announced, “Emmanuel, I have always believed in you. My army is ready to strike at any moment! Whatever the circumstances, we’ll strike at your command.”
“Good.” Emmanuel nodded, He was content to hear an affirmative response.
Vachon might not be talkative, but he’s quite reliable.
“Quell, what about you?” Emmanuel turned to the distant woman. He didn’t mention Xarri, as Xarri had reminded him not to.
“My team is also ready,” she replied. Then, she pressured him instead. “How do we utilize our power? Don’t let my effort go to waste and end up in the dungeon.” Although her words were harsh, he knew the others were also thinking about the same thing.
“Your time to shine will come.” He chuckled before taking out the map of Dark Night Islands.
The crowd’s eyes twinkled in excitement at the sight.
“Wow, it seems like Mr. Emmanuel already has a plan!”
“Look at the map! It’s so detailed!”
“I can’t wait to get into action!” Ironskull and the others were eager for battle. They weren’t afraid of dying in battle. They feared being taken down by the Airspace Group before they even had the chance to resist.
“Quell, Vachon, thanks for not acting impulsively last night and preserving our strength. Now, everyone listens to me.” Emmanuel pointed to the map and began to explain his plan. “The Airspace Group owns five military bases, which are the foundation of their rule over the Dark Night Islands.
Even though their numbers are at a significant disadvantage compared to us, their advantage lies in their ability to use technology for real-time communication and concentrate their forces for individual attacks.” Everyone listened attentively.
Ostrich, Ironskull, and Aurora were in awe and came to same conclusion. He’s a brilliant leader! Quell suddenly saw him in a new light. His analytical skills are on par with Mr. Xarri. Emmanuel’s next move surprised her even more.
“Vachon, take Ironskull, Ostrich, and your team to stand by at this location in thirty minutes.” Emmanuel pointed at a location on the map that linked the southern and central regions. It was one of the necessary routes from the southern region to the central area.
“If the Airspace Group moves troops from the southern base to the central region tonight, you’ll ambush them with the falling rooks from the mountains on both sides. Remember. Your mission is to stop them from reaching the central region, not to fight them to death. If you can’t hold them off, immediately retreat to the Solar Group’s territory.
Ironskull asked, “Mr. Emmanuel, why retreat to their territory?” Emmanuel smirked. “It’s to confuse the enemy.
There’s nobody at the Solar Group’s territory now, so our enemy will never anticipate that you have retreated to their place. Therefore, you can shake them off easily. Once you reach there, wait for further orders.”
Aqua Finally, he turned to Aqua to give her order. “Aqua.”
“Yes, Mr. Emmanuel,” she replied eagerly.
