Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 355 A Deranged Scheme

Evidently, the plan Rocky was speaking about at the moment was much bolder than the precedingone. Maybe they could successfully deceive the Timber Deity Empire once or twice, but it would notbe easy as falling off a log to pull their legs for the third time.

In fact, the two Commanders of the Timber Deity Empire, who could lead twenty thousand troops ofthe Timber Deity Empire, would by no means be any mediocrities. The reason why Rocky hadhoodwinked them for two consecutive times was only because they exhibited numerical power andunderrated Rocky. Since they had never interacted with Rocky, they didn't know he was audaciousto such an extent. First of all, he drew the attention of their nearly ten thousand troops with hismere three thousand troops and transported the provisions and fodders to the camp of theCrimson Dragon Army at the Rough Slope openly. Then he put on a play of fake plague so that thetroops of the Timber Deity Empire dared not launch an attack right away in worries about theirhealth.

All in all, the two Commanders of the Timber Deity Empire should not be to blame. The reason whythey had been fooled by Rocky's schemes was not because they were silly but because Rocky wastoo foxy. He was good at scheming, but what was more important was that he was very bold. Unlikehim, the two Commanders of the Timber Deity Empire were gannet like for military exploit andscared stiff of death. Otherwise, the Rough Slope should have long been seized by them.

Indeed, they had no slightest inkling the Crimson Dragon Army's reinforcement troops would showup very promptly. If the Timber Deity Empire was briefed of that, perhaps they would spare no effortin blasting and taking over the Rough Slope in no time.

In such a war, occasionally intelligence would play a significant aspect in the result. The reason whyRocky indicated an initial charge was precisely because he was apprehensive that the Timber DeityEmpire would get the intelligence about the reinforcement before the Crimson Dragon Army'sreinforcement troops showed up. In such a case, the Timber Deity Empire troops would immediatelylaunch a raid with all their courage, and the northeast military army could do nothing but defend. Itwould be very likely that the northeast military army was overpowered, and the Rough Slopeplunged into the enemy's hand before Isis dispatched troops to come to their rescue. Therefore,rather than finishing in this dreadful way, they would better launch an initial charge so that theymight grasp the most convenient chance for the northeast military army.

Of course, they had to take strong menace in doing that. Once they commenced an initial raid, thenortheast military army would encounter the twenty thousand troops of the Timber Deity Empire,which would be totally distinctive from pulling a fast one on them with schemes like before.

Besides, after being made a clown twice, the two Commanders of the Timber Deity Empire would byno means let it come into being for the third time. They would extremely be on guard so as not tobe twitted once again. Therefore, it would be challenging to grasp a shadow for Rocky to carry outthe decapitation strike, which would be sure to frustrate the Timber Deity Empire troops ifsuccessfully carried out.

"Rocky, I don't agree with you on this plan. I think it's equal to letting the northeast military armydig their own grave." Deputy Commander Chen turned down the idea without the least reluctance."Indeed, your plan sounds too jeopardizing. Killing a Commander of the Timber Deity Empire amidsttheir twenty thousand troops is more difficult than drawing blood from a turnip!" Marin saidseriously, solemnness written on her face. In her point of view, even if the plan could be carried outsuccessfully, they would have to pay a significant price—heavy casualties. Of course, she wasn'tamenable to endanger the lives of several thousand soldiers in the northeast military army."Nothing undertaken, nothing achieved! If we don't make a confident move, how do you think youcould hold up for the last day?" Rocky asked, coldness and malice conspicuous in his eyes. He hadnever fought a battle in its real sense, but he knew it was like herding cats to beat the muchstronger enemy with the weaker force of the northeast military in a normal way. All that wasbecause of the enormous gap between the numbers of troops of the two parties. However, if thenortheast military army applied trailblazing strategies, they might strike the enemy vitally. That wasthe most crucial reason why Rocky had planned the decapitation strike.

"Maybe we could hold up on the third day by contending with all our energies," DeputyCommander Chen said, though he himself was conscious of the low probability.

Marin was tight-lipped.

"Deputy Commander Chen, you have encountered many battles over these years. But have youforgotten about some common sense about war? We all recognize that the best way to defend is tostrike the opponent by surprise, so that they will be utterly snapped off guard. At the moment, infact, we have less burden on the mind than the troops of the Timber Deity Empire because we don'thave anything to lose. Still, the two Commanders of Timber Deity Empire must be horror-strickenthat their Commander in Chief would punish them if they fail to take the Rough Slope from us.Therefore, they are more waiting with bated breath to win the battle than us. However, the longingthey are, the more likely they will stick their necks out,” Rocky said in a flat tone, but his face lookedlike Satan at the moment. He seemed extraordinarily evil and sinister as if he could read everybodyelse's mind.

Both Marin and Deputy Commander Chen trembled with fear when they saw the expressions onRocky's face. Their hearts would explode, and their eyes were wide with fear. Perhaps it was becausethey were familiar with the undisciplined and emotionless Rocky that they were much shocked toreplace the dark and evil side of him.

Indeed, what they weren't conscious of was that Rocky would be progressively evil in the future."I'm not seeking for your point of view. Now I'm the commander of the northeast military army. Iwill do what I desire to do even if you don't agree with me," Rocky announced, glancing at Marinand Deputy Commander Chen with his resolute and relentless eyes

"Deputy Commander Chen, please take off for a moment.” Marin ordered Deputy Commander Chenafter reflecting for a moment. Her brows furrowed tight. She figured out she had to communicatewith Rocky in private.

As instructed, Deputy Commander Chen left the tent.

"Rocky, what's wrong with you? You're not the same person I used to know," Marin sighed. She feltlike Rocky had abruptly transformed into another individual. Maybe the Rocky she perceived hadconsistently gotten on one's nerves so that she always craved to give him a lesson, but she had toconcede that he had some values. But the Rocky in front of her eyes now not only looked evil butalso acted in an imperious demeanor, as if he required to maintain everything under his control."Really? Maybe this is the real me," Rocky said, a grim smile emerging at the corners of his mouth."No, I'm free from doubt this is not you," Marin declared, shaking her head in incredulity. Sheassumed that there must be some justification for Rocky's abrupt transformation.

Suddenly, Rocky burst into laughter. His giggle was an auditory hug. It wended its way through thefrigid air enveloping even strangers in its tickling embrace. In a wildly arrogant manner, he strodeforward and held Marin's slim waist with his arm. As he pulled her towards him, his lips covered herfeatured cherry lips.

Caught off balance by Rocky's sudden provocation, Marin could do nothing but receive his kissdespite her wide-open eyes in bewilderment. It was not until some moments later that sherecognized what was going on. Precipitously, she shoved Rocky away and raised her hand,intending to slap him. However, her wrist was gripped tight by his big hand in the air.

"Never be hoodwinked by my false appearance. Otherwise, what I will take from you next time willnot be as straightforward as a kiss. Anyway, it isn't the first time we kissed. Even if I will kiss youonce again, you won't lose anything. I recommend you preserve your power to execute some morerivals rather than slapping me," Rocky said while gawking at Marin with his evil and gorgeous eyes.By now, Marin was extraordinarily embarrassed and boiling up with anger. Her face flushed red likea red brick from cheeks to ears. She had never felt so humiliated in her life before. Rocky was ashameless and despicable bastard in her eyes at the moment. She had a strong impulse to kill himto resolve her fury. On second thought, she comprehended that the northeast military army wouldbe wrecked if she actually murdered him. Besides, she would not be so cold-hearted as to kill him."You'd better try to compose yourself. When I come back, we should begin making the operationplan,” Rocky said. Then he released his grip on Marin's wrist. With a cold look on his face, he left thetent.

"Why has he changed in this way?" Marin muttered, staring at Rocky's back with her glaring eyes.Bewilderment was written on her face.
