The command center was flashing with the red light of an alarm, but Old Secretary Zhou was not at all flustered, turning to say, "Speaking of which, what's the situation with the Akasha Holy Church now?"
Peng Xianzhi, brewing tea, snickered and said, "Archbishop Li Ang is still holding meetings, trying to stop this war. But it is imperative, Humanity's Watch Army and the heretics have never had a precedent for negotiation in history. It wasn't possible before, and it's even less so now, regardless of how much leverage the other side holds. But the most critical point is that we must win, and win beautifully."
Sipping her tea, she remarked wistfully, "Especially the first battle, we must win it splendidly, and we can't show any signs of decline afterward. Once we're deadlocked, there's the possibility of negotiating."
War is a very complicated affair.
It tests not only your combat strength.
But also your internal cohesion.
