Chapter 273: Eastern March

Alexander breaking down the situation for them set many of the military leaders' hearts ablaze.

They understood that abiding by the treaty will result in their slow death and knew attacking was the only option.

"Do we simply charge and kill the ruling nobles?" Menes wanted to know Alexander's strategy.

"No, not that," Came the reply.

But hearing this answer made some people almost jump in fright.

Not because of its contents.

But because of the owner of its utterance.

For this was not said by Alexander but by Cambyses!

'The brat needs a good spanking tonight.' Alexander getting his thunder stolen could barely keep the gentle smiling facade.

He had been worried that due to Cambyses being a woman she would be underestimated or shunned by her fellow council members.

But it seems he should have been worried about Cambyses making him feel irrelevant.
