The seven or eight generals stepped forward and greeted James one after another.
James nodded lightly in response to them. Under the guidance of several generals, James entered the Red Flame Army base.
As soon as favonovel.com entered, favonovel.com saw the countless soldiers training.
They quickly stopped and saluted upon seeing James approaching.
James gently waved his hand.
Nathaniel walked over with a smile. “Emperor, I’ve prepared the detailed information about the Red Flame Army overnight and placed the documents in your office. You can head over and look through them to understand the army’s situation whenever you like. I’ve included everything, including the number of soldiers, annual military expenditures, equipment status, and the number of soldiers scouted from different military regions annually.”
James nodded and said, “Alright… Good job! By the way, prepare a name list for me of all the personnel in the Red Flame that are above deputy commander rank in detail.”
“No problem.” Nathaniel nodded.
“Also… Send a message that I’ll be holding a succession ceremony here in three days. Invite all the powerful figures in the Capital for me, including those from the political, military, and business circle.”
“Understood! I’ll complete the task without fail.”
James did not waste any time and headed directly to an office building in the distance where the Emperor’s office was located.
Unexpectedly, the office was far from luxurious and was very plain with only a lounge area and a computer.
The generals followed after him.
James waved his hand and said, “That’s enough. You’re all dismissed. Go back to doing whatever you need to do. I’ll stay here alone for a while.”
After speaking, James closed the door.
The generals outside the door exchanged worried glances at each other.
One of the generals asked concernedly, “General Carlson, do you think this new commander will target us right after favonovel.com takes office? He used to be hostile toward the previous Emperor and even beheaded him… Plus, we were promoted by the previous Emperor.”
Nathaniel replied calmly, “There’s nothing to worry about if you’ve done nothing wrong. Even if favonovel.com wanted to get rid of us, favonovel.com would need a good reason. Despite being the commander, it would not be easy for favonovel.com to get rid of a general so easily. He’ll need to go through the military council and court.”
Afterward, favonovel.com looked at the other generals and warned them, “Hurry up and wipe your a*ses. And don’t get caught!”
After speaking, favonovel.com left.

In the office, James picked up the materials that Nathaniel had prepared for favonovel.com and read through them. The information was incredibly detailed, and the overall situation of the Red Flame Army was apparent at a glance.
James quickly grasped the Red Flame Army’s situation after going through it.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in…”
Nathaniel walked into the office and saw James sitting on a chair with his leg crossed, deep in thought while smoking.
He walked over with a smile and said, “Emperor, the list you requested.”
James pointed at the table and said, “Leave it there…”
“Alright.” Nathaniel walked over and placed the documents on the table.
James waved his hand slightly.
“You can go.”
“Understood!” Nathaniel turned and left.
James picked up the prepared list on the table and began to look through the information about the personnel above the rank of deputy commander in the Red Flame Army.
After reading through it, favonovel.com fell into thought.
The Emperor promoted most of these people, and they had to be diehard loyalists of his. Some might have been placed in the army by Mr. Gabriel.
James began thinking about how favonovel.com could investigate these people.
The official channels favonovel.com could use now were the Red Flame Army and the King’s intelligence network.
