Chapter 731 Withdraw Your Troops

“Your Majesty, I’ve already seized Filren. The new King of Filren, Byron, was so terrified that he fled.

“Likewise, I’ve defeated Filren’s troops until they’re nothing but scraps. It’s a perfect opportunity for us to take over the country. They’re no longer a threat to me,” said Caspian.

“I understand you guys feel fired up and invincible now, but you’re not in Diatoranian territory. If I supply you with millions of soldiers, how will all of you survive if something goes wrong?” Balthazar rebuked.

“I’ve already considered this, Your Majesty. You needn’t worry about sending more soldiers now that we’ve claimed Filren’s capital,” Caspian answered.

“What? Are you planning to disobey my orders? Or do you think my ability to judge the situation is inferior to yours?” Balthazar thundered.

Upon sensing the former’s seething tone, Caspian quickly explained himself. “I can’t possibly compare myself to your almighty presence, Your Majesty. However, you’re far away in your royal residence, making you less aware of the situation here.”

“Caspian!” Balthazar growled. “You’re still young and reckless. I can’t allow millions of soldiers to risk their lives alongside you.

“I’ve brought out the royal scepter to summon your return to Dhord City officially. Yet, you haven’t done so. Do you plan to disobey me till the very end?”

“I wouldn’t dare disobey your orders with my humble status. I merely can’t withdraw myself from this war.

“Besides, everything I do is for Diatoran. If I withdraw now, wouldn’t the sacrifices of our fallen soldiers be in vain?” Caspian tried to reason with

Balthazar.

“Since you claim to be willing to obey me, I want you to withdraw your troops now!”

“Your Majesty, withdrawing now would only cause us grave losses. Not to mention, our current campaign won’t be as successful,” Caspian explained.

“That’s enough from you. Quit spewing nonsense. I’ve considered every aspect of the situation better than you.
