52: Simple and direct, but effective.

David's lips curved upwards.

"What I want you to do is defeat the Bolivian Government Forces and take over the entire Santa Cruz Province."

"Any problems?"

"No problems!" the three replied in unison, resolute.

"Very good." David was pleased with their attitude. "From now on, I need a command structure."

He extended a finger and pointed at the burly white man at the forefront.

"You, what's your name?"

"Reporting, Boss, Oliver!"

"Oliver." David announced, "From now on, you are the commander-in-chief of this army."

Next, he pointed to the lean black man.

"You."

"Elijah, Boss!"

"Elijah, you will serve as deputy commander-in-chief, assisting Oliver."

Finally, it was the bespectacled Latino.

"Mateo, Boss!"

"Mateo, you will serve as Chief of Staff, responsible for formulating operational plans."

"Yes!"

The three snapped to attention again, their eyes burning with fire.

They were absolutely loyal soldiers materialized by the system, extensions of David's will.

David's orders were their highest mission.

"As for the name of this army..."

David pondered for a moment.

"Let's call it the 'Bolivian Free Army'."

This name not only occupied the moral high ground but also avoided trùng tên with any existing armed forces within Bolivia.

Saving some unnecessary trouble and opposition.

"Oliver."

"Here!"

"I give you three hours to complete the reorganization of the army."

"In three hours, I want to see an army ready for battle at any time!"

"Yes! Boss!"

Oliver didn't hesitate. After receiving the order, he immediately turned and gave commands to Elijah and Mateo.

"Elijah, Mateo, follow me!"

The three acted swiftly, turning and descending from the terrace, heading straight for the military camp that was already taking shape.

Juan watched their retreating figures, unable to help but click his tongue.

"Boss, these guys... their aura is just too strong, isn't it?"

Their presence was even more powerful than any special forces unit he had ever seen.

David didn't speak, he just walked to the edge of the terrace, watching the rapid distribution work on the lawn.

Thousands of soldiers, organized by various temporary officers, lined up silently and efficiently to receive their equipment.

Opening crates, distributing rifles, ammunition, grenades, individual kits... the entire process was orderly, without any chaos or clamor.

On the other side.

The newly appointed commander-in-chief Oliver, deputy commander-in-chief Elijah, and Chief of Staff Mateo had already plunged into intense work.

They set up a temporary command post directly among the crowd.

A map was spread out on an ammunition box, and the three gathered around it, quickly beginning to divide the troops.

"Fifteen thousand men, our enemy is a regular army, we can't scatter them."

Chief of Staff Mateo adjusted his glasses and pointed at the map.

"I suggest forming five standard infantry regiments, each with two thousand five hundred men."

"The remaining two thousand five hundred men will serve as forces directly under the Command, including guard, reconnaissance, communications, and logistics units."

"I agree." deputy commander-in-chief Elijah immediately nodded. "This division makes the command structure clear and facilitates the rapid formation of combat effectiveness."

commander-in-chief Oliver made the final decision.

"Let's do it!"

"Immediately appoint regimental Commanders and deputy regimental Commanders from the list of over two hundred command personnel!"

The order was given, and execution was instantaneous.

Because they were all Death Sworn produced by the system, there was no suspicion or distrust between them.

This eliminated all the nonsense of winning hearts and minds or balancing factions.

Efficiency was maximized!

"Theodore!"

"I appoint you as Commander of the First Infantry Regiment!"

"Henry!"

"I appoint you as Deputy Commander of the First Infantry Regiment! Immediately gather your troops!"

"Owen!"

"I appoint you as Commander of the Second Infantry Regiment!"

"Sebastian!"

"I appoint you as Deputy Commander of the Second Infantry Regiment!"

Orders were rapidly issued, and newly appointed regimental-level Commanders took their leave, heading to their respective units.

The massive force of fifteen thousand men, like a precise machine, was quickly disassembled and reassembled.

Four o'clock in the morning.

Less than three hours had passed since David gave the order.

The reorganization work had miraculously been completed.

Five well-equipped, fully staffed infantry regiments were neatly lined up on the open ground outside the manor.

A chilling aura rose to the sky.

Oliver, Elijah, and Mateo returned to the villa terrace to report to David.

"Boss, the Bolivian Free Army has completed its reorganization and is ready for battle at any time!"

Oliver's voice was firm and powerful.

David glanced at his watch and nodded.

"Very good, tell me your operational plan."

Chief of Staff Mateo stepped forward, pointing to a simple operational map that had just been drawn.

"Boss, according to the intelligence we currently have, the Government Army within Santa Cruz City have two main strongholds."

"First, the Bayegrande Military Camp located in the southwest of the city, garrisoned by a regiment of the Government Army' Fourth Infantry Division, with approximately two thousand troops."

"Second, a small naval port located in the southeast, near the river, garrisoned by an inland river fleet, with approximately one thousand troops."

"Our plan is to hit both points simultaneously!"

Oliver took over, radiating strong fighting spirit.

"I order: The First Infantry Regiment, led by Commander Theodore and Deputy Commander Henry, will assault the Bayegrande Military Camp!"

"The Second Infantry Regiment, led by Commander Owen and Deputy Commander Sebastian, will assault the naval port!"

"The Third, Fourth, and Fifth Infantry Regiments will act as reserves and simultaneously advance north."

"Establish a defensive line in the Concepción direction to block any potential Government Army reinforcements!"

The plan was simple and brutal, yet effective.

With an absolute numerical advantage, they would use overwhelming force to destroy all active forces within Santa Cruz City in one fell swoop.

After listening, David made only one request.

"Before dawn, I want to see Santa Cruz taken by you."

Oliver and the other two straightened their chests sharply.

"We guarantee to complete the mission!"

"Go."

David waved his hand.

"Yes!"

The three supreme Commanders saluted, then turned and quickly departed.

A moment later.

Outside the manor, the silent military formation began to move.

The First and Second Infantry Regiments, a total of five thousand fully armed soldiers.

Transformed into two black iron streams, silently merging into the deepest darkness before dawn.

Their footsteps were light, yet carried a power capable of crushing everything.

Four fifteen in the morning.

Outside the Bayegrande Military Camp, there was a deathly silence.

The night was so thick it couldn't be dissolved, completely engulfing the sprawling military camp.

Theodore, Commander of the First Infantry Regiment, raised his binoculars, carefully observing the distant watchtowers and camp gates, a disdainful sneer curling at his lips.

"That's it?"

He lowered his binoculars and turned to his Deputy Commander Henry beside him.

"I thought the Bolivian regular army was so impressive, but look at those sentries, swaying, almost asleep."

"The entire camp area is dark, I can't even see a patrol."

Henry frowned slightly, took the binoculars, and observed for a while, his expression not as relaxed as Theodore's.

"Don't be careless, Theodore. The scout intelligence said there's a full infantry regiment stationed here, over two thousand men."

"It's early morning now, so it's normal for most people to be sleeping."
