I Got 999 Level With One Cut

0The door to the Aldran Congress was tightly shut. The 75 representatives had not left ever since they walked in this morning.    

    

These people were in charge of creating the constitution most of the time. They were not used to new missions due to the sudden war.    

    

Generally speaking, for example, the development of diplomacy, magic and economy, there were specialized ministers and departments in charge of these areas, and there was no need for Congress to interfere. In their constant meetings throughout the year, their main mission was to decide who should be the minister. They would also allocate budgets for each department, as well as amend and add new laws.    

    

They were used to doing these three things most of the time, and none of them needed to be decisively decided in a short period of time.    

    

Before the next candidate for minister was decided, the previous minister would not resign. The annual budget only needed to be announced once. The law was even less urgent, they could slowly make it.    

    

To pass a resolution, two thirds of the members of Congress needed to raise their hands to agree, meaning that fifty out of the seventy-five would agree. Coincidentally, the Aldran Congress was divided into two opposing factions. Both factions occupied almost half of the seats. As long as a member of the political faction gave out any proposals, it didn't matter if it was constructive or not. The other side would firmly oppose it. This made almost all the proposals difficult to pass. Sometimes, the Queen even needed to personally make a decision on some proposals in order to end this cycle.    

    

Thus, the discussion process of Congress became extremely lengthy, filled with countless objections and arguments. In any case, everyone had sufficient time. In most cases, this sort of situation would not affect the overall situation.    

    

This situation continued until the sudden war.    

    

And now, this slowly operating organization was forced to make a very difficult decision in a short period of time.    

    

They wanted to discuss whether the Aldran government should leave Brucedahl, which was less than 100 kilometers away from the enemy's vanguard, and retreat to the colony or allied countries to establish a government-in-exile.    

    

The Aldran, which was closest to the mainland and had a certain development speed, did not need to worry about being invaded by Westfalen. It was located in the Ainderhofen on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. Under the influence of the local government's low-tax policy, Ainderhofen had developed into an important transit city on the trade route between Europe, America, and other parts of the wider world. It had perfect infrastructure, a giant airship port that was enough to dock the entire Aldran's local fleet. There were also more than five hundred thousand permanent residents.    

    

The only flaw was that it was too far away.    

    

It wasn't easy to load the entire government department into the airship and ensure that they could reach their destination across the Atlantic Ocean. The number of battle airships in Westfalen was far greater than in Aldran. They even had a mobile fleet that specialized in hunting and killing cross-ocean airships in the Atlantic Ocean. Even if the entire navy of Aldran participated in the escort, such a huge fleet could not possibly not attract the enemy's attention.    

    

In the end, even if the people of Aldran won the battle, their losses would still be quite heavy.    

    

If they wanted to go to Britain, the problem they faced would not be so serious. After their fleet left Brucedahl, they only needed to cross a channel less than 100 kilometers wide. The people of Britain might even send their fleet to escort them. But they did not want to do that.    

    

The reason was simple: in the history of Aldran, no matter how critical the situation was, their government had never moved to the territory of other countries, including their allies' land.    

    

Of course, they had a third option, which was to stay in Brucedahl without going anywhere.    

    

This choice seemed to be the most unfeasible.    

    

But there were still representatives in Congress who were inclined towards this plan.    

    

Should they go to Ainderhofen, London, or stay here?    

    

The supporters of the three options could not convince each other.    

    

Military Minister Almande Janssen had never liked the style of those congressmen. Although he was indeed chosen by these people to take his current position. He felt that these people had no meaning at all when the country was truly threatened. Usually, they would think about some small matters repeatedly, and then when they realized the seriousness of the matter, they would be so frightened that their expressions would change and they would not know what to do. In the end, they still needed the military to solve the problem.    

    

He thought that he was a typical soldier's personality: decisive, rigorous, heartless, and silent.    

    

In order to further prove his personality, Janssen held the battle report written on a piece of parchment paper. From the moment he walked into the parliament building to the moment he pushed open the door to the conference room, he did not say a word. He kept a straight face.    

    

When the seventy-five people in the conference room saw the door suddenly open, they were shocked. They stopped arguing and turned their gazes to the uninvited guest who had barged into the conference hall. However, someone quickly recognized him.    

    

"Minister Janssen, what are you doing here?"    

    

Almande Janssen didn't answer their question directly. He slowly opened the sheepskin scroll in his hand and held it in his hand. But he did not read it immediately.    

    

"According to the information I got," he said, "we just won a battle in Fort Lerge."    

    

The representatives looked at each other and immediately began discussing in low voices.    

    

"This is only a temporary victory. Fort Lerge will not be able to last forever, so it's safer for us to go to London."    

    

"You still want to abandon your people after winning the war at the front line? We shouldn't go anywhere. "    

    

Janssen turned a deaf ear to these discussions.    

    

He cleared his throat, and the meeting room fell silent once again.    

    

"I have no intention of interrupting the important meeting of the council members." An unfathomable smile appeared on his face, "I just want to report the results of my army in Fort Lerge."    

    

"Our unit captured a total of 95,400 light infantry and heavy infantry soldiers from Westfalen during the battle. Our unit captured 3,600 swordsmen and 2,000 archers. At the same time, our unit also captured a total of 2,200 mages, including priests, mages and other spellcasters, and two Titled Devil Instructor mages. The total number of people captured is a total of 103,200 people. The K legion corps that was in charge of the attack, as well as the 14th and 15th Magic Mobile Squadron, were completely wiped out. We lost zero men in battle, and no one was injured."    

    

Almande Janssen raised his head and waved the document in his hand towards the council seats that were as high and mighty as a valley on both sides.    

    

"I guarantee with my reputation that every word I said is true."
