Chapter 494 Attacked on the Way Back

Caspian’s actions incited public outrage. There were many who were openly cursing him on

the streets.

Willow would be upset if she knew that the commander was her husband. Besides, there was no way

they could reveal Caspian’s identity when the civilians of Southlake City were so agitated.

“How would I possibly know about the affairs in the military?” Willow asked puzzledly.

She would never imagine that the commander who was being hurled with insults by tens of thousands

of people was her own husband.

“The commander’s identity will definitely be revealed once the war ends,” Sylvia explained.

“Alright then. Can you tell me about Caspian’s current situation? I’m more worried about him, “Willow

questioned.

“Rest assured, Willow. Caspian has been through hundreds of battles. He’ll definitely be safe,” Sylvia

replied reassuringly.

At the same time, the military troops in Southlake City had begun to station themselves at the

coastlines.

The senior general, John Anderson, had led the withdrawal of the naval troops. The cities by the

coastlines would become a strategic location for the upcoming battle.

The first commander to be stationed at Southlake City was Desmond Patten. He was a renowned

general officer in South Aridlands. This time, Caspian appointed him as the commander of the

vanguards.

Desmond had once wiped out tens of thousands of the enemy’s forces with only a thousand soldiers.

That battle earned him great fame.

Once he stepped foot into the city, he immediately went to the front lines. Desmond began to command

troops at the coastline that was a few hundred miles long.

At the same time, the Champion of Central Plains, Joseph Welch, had also arrived with.

reinforcements.

A portion of the soldiers were air–dropped directly into the city. There were even fighter jets that were in

charge of transporting several thousand soldiers to Southlake City.

Time was of the essence. Diatoran had mobilized all resources to be used in combat.

The entire city was enveloped in a tense atmosphere. The streets were filled with the latest

However, they were all furious upon hearing the retreatment of the naval forces.

As they began to hurl insults at the commander, even some of the media were stepping out to

condemn Caspian.

“Commander, the retreat of the naval forces has caused the discontent of the public. Many of them are

berating you. Should we intervene in the matter?” Benjamin asked.

They were currently in South Aridlands‘ command center.

“Looks like they don’t know that I’m the commander of the war,” Caspian stated.

“Yes, sir. Although the citizens have no idea, the enemy’s forces are well aware of your identity. As the

war progresses, sooner or later, your identity will be exposed …” Benjamin replied worriedly.

“It’s fine. I don’t care about such things. Who’s the one commanding the battle–me or them? “Caspian

asked disdainfully.

As the Diatoran God of War, it would be too pathetic if everyone could figure out what he was

thinking.

“I understand. It’s fine as long as you don’t take it to heart.” Benjamin nodded.

“As long as we achieve victory, it’s fine if they curse at me. I’m just worried whether the enemy will fall

into our trap. Will they attack from Southlake City’s coastline?” Caspian continued.

“Southlake City and Gartham are the closest cities to the sea. But in comparison, Southlake City is

more suitable for them to land. They’ll definitely choose Southlake City!” Benjamin

said.

Caspian was in deep thought. The matter wasn’t as simple as it seemed. The scale of the operation

was unprecedented.

The enemy’s generals weren’t easy to deal with.

“Robert and Viktor are renowned Gods of War of their respective countries. They know who I am, so

they’ll definitely spend time studying me. For all we know, they might have already seen through our

plans.

“We have to be prepared/We can’t put all our eggs in one basket. We need to grasp their latest

intelligence so that we can adapt accordingly,” Caspian warned.

“Yes! I’ll make sure the intelligence department gathers the intelligence we need. I’ll

Benjamin stated.

As the war broke out, Caspian became increasingly worried for Willow’s safety. He decided to give

Sylvia a call.

Sylvia, Macy, and the others were preparing to escort Willow back to the villa. However, they stopped

on their way back to look at the civilians who had crowded the streets of the city.

Grouping together, the citizens fervently point out the mistakes in the commander’s military tactics.

It was then that Sylvia noticed Caspian’s call. However, she did not pick up for fear of revealing any

secrets. After all, there were eyes all over the place.

“Macy, protect Willow. I need to pick up a call,” Sylvia commanded.

“Yes.” Macy nodded her head. She knew it was an important call.

“Ms. Frost, is it a call from my husband?” Willow asked.

“No, it’s not,” Sylvia lied. She had a feeling that Caspian had something important to instruct

her.

Nodding her head, Willow did not ask further.

Moving to a secluded corner, Sylvia picked up the call. “What are your orders, Caspian?” she

asked.

“It’s nothing much. I just want you to protect Willow,” Caspian replied.

“Caspian, would it be possible to ask someone else to be in charge of Willow’s safety?” Sylvia asked

cautiously.

“Why’s that?” he questioned.

“It’s nothing. I’m just a little anxious. The other generals are all preparing to charge into the battle. I also

want to be on the battlefield,” Sylvia answered.

She wouldn’t mind being Willow’s bodyguard if the world was at peace. But with the war looming

ahead, she felt a little wronged for a general officer like her to be a mere bodyguard.

“Your current mission is to protect Willow. This is an order. I’ll let you have some fun when the time is

right,” Caspian instructed.

“The enemy might send assassins to harm Willow at any time. I’ll be under their control if Willow gets

ca

captured. So, the mission you’re carrying out now is equally as important,” he

continued.

“I understand, but why don’t you bring Willow to South Aridlands? She’ll definitely be safe

Caspian was getting a little impatient. “You talk too much, Sylvia. I have my own plans. All you need to

do is to follow my orders. I’ll find someone else to replace you if you don’t want to do it,” he answered.

Caspian had his hands full with military affairs. He didn’t want to be distracted by anything

eise.

“No, I wouldn’t dare. I’ll definitely protect Willow,” Sylvia replied.

Soon after, Caspian hung up. Sylvia immediately returned to Willow’s side.

“Let’s hurry up and return, Willow. It’s not safe out here,” Sylvia urged. The longer they were out in the

open, the more danger they would be in.

“Alright, let’s go back.” Willow knew how serious the current situation was. Not only that, she was also

Caspian’s wife.

It was inevitable that they might be targeted by the enemy given her special identity. She was also

afraid that any unexpected incidents might occur. Therefore, it would be better for her to return to the

villa first.

Just then, a group of people appeared in front of them. Brandishing their weapons, they aimed for

Willow.

“Protect the God of War’s wife!” Sylvia shouted upon seeing them.
