Chapter 1999: Righteous Path Alliance
It's the same as Napoleon, and Germany during World War II.
Whether it was Napoleon or Germany during World War II, at the beginning, they were all invincible and invincible countries in front of them, no matter how strong they were, they were easily wiped out by them.
However, in the end, both sides fell into a country called Russia.
Why?
The reason is actually very simple, that is, the long supply line directly dragged them down.
Some people may say that the Napoleonic thing, at that time, transportation relied on horse-drawn carriages and manpower to transport, so there would be such a thing as extremely difficult logistical material supply, if it was replaced by the era of trains, or the age of automobiles, then there would never be similar problems.
If that's what you think, you're even more wrong.
Don't forget, during World War II, trains and automobiles were already the main means of transportation, in your opinion, there should be no difficulties in material transportation at this time, but, in fact, there were also difficulties in material transportation at that time.
During World War II, Germany's roads and railways were the best in Europe, such as highways, and the whole of Germany had been built before the start of World War II.
The other railways are also very well developed.
However, in the end, Germany was defeated because of the difficulty of transporting logistics and materials.
It can be seen that in wartime, how to ensure the punctual arrival of logistics materials is the most important thing.
On the Shenzhou Continent, it is still a feudal slave society, there are no modern or modern trains, automobiles or anything here, and here, the transportation of materials relies on manpower and animal power.
Perhaps, the strength of humans and livestock here is much stronger than that of the earth, but the transportation here is difficult, and it is hundreds or even thousands of times more dangerous than on the earth.
On Earth, the troops transporting materials will at most receive threats from the enemy's troops or harsh environments, but on the side of the Shenzhou Continent, the troops transporting materials will suffer more than these, they will also suffer from the threat of the ubiquitous brutes.
The combat power of brute beasts is not comparable to that of ordinary soldiers, their combat power is almost the same as that of tanks and the like, and in terms of speed, they can pull tanks a lot.
In the face of countless 'tank' attacks that are as fast as trains, how do you say that the troops who are just transporting materials need to resist?!
Oh, and you said you could use storage gear to load substances.
Yes, this is possible, but don't forget, storage equipment is extremely hard to come by, especially large storage equipment, which is very rare.
Moreover, even if there is a large storage equipment, in the face of the hundreds of millions of human armies at that time, the number needs a lot, at least tens of thousands, to be able to maintain the continuous consumption of the army.
And so many large-scale storage equipment, for hundreds of thousands of years ago, human beings really can't get it.
Even if it were a human being now, it would be extremely difficult to come up with these large storage equipment.
In addition, at that time, the production materials were extremely scarce, where was there as abundant as on the earth, and there was no abundance on the Shenzhou continent now.
The scarce materials, coupled with the long supply lines, fought to the end, of course, it was impossible to fight.
In addition, this last and most important point is that the long war has made both sides have incisive experience, and countless soldiers have long been war-weary in their hearts.
In the beginning, these soldiers could fight with all their might because of the concept of Terran survival, but with the establishment and strength of the Terran power, there was no danger of being annihilated.
Gradually, these soldiers began to feel homesick in their hearts.
As soon as this thought appeared, the combat effectiveness of the army declined so quickly that it can be imagined.
So, in the end, the Terran army was disbanded, and the decisive battle between humans and beasts came to an end.
Although human beings have not been able to completely eliminate all the brute beasts, they have also laid an extremely broad living environment for themselves, and also let the brute beasts know that on the Shenzhou Continent, human beings cannot be bullied, and they have enough strength to fight against brute beasts.
It is also this great war that has brought unprecedented prospects for the development of mankind.
By now, the human race was in an absolutely dominant position, and the brute beasts could no longer threaten the status of the human race on the Shenzhou Continent.
Lin Ze wasn't too interested in the ancient battle between cultivators and brute beasts. 、
After all, this was hundreds of thousands of years ago, and Lin Ze was really loveless.
And with his current strength, he really doesn't have the strength to fight against an army of brute beasts like the Beast Tide.
Therefore, for Lin Ze, what he was most concerned about now was the Star Moon Canyon and the surrounding cultivator power divisions.
After all, from now on, he also wants to establish a point of influence here in the Star Moon Canyon, which can be used for trading and as a stronghold connecting Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, Sancai Valley, and Huangsha Town.
In addition, Xingyue Canyon is the largest trading point in the entire 100,000 Great Mountain, and if you open a stronghold here, you can buy countless things that Lin Ze can't buy in Huangsha Town and Chu State.
Therefore, for a long time to come, Lin Ze will branch some strength here, so he naturally needs to know more about the Xingyue Canyon and the surrounding situation in order to deal with it.
In the relevant records, Lin Ze saw what he wanted.
Here in the Star Moon Canyon, it was not the brute beasts from the 100,000 mountains inside that were dangerous, but the martial artists who were also cultivators.
In the Star-Moon Canyon, the most powerful force is undoubtedly the Righteous Path Alliance.
According to the relevant records in the jade slip, the first to arrive in the Star Moon Canyon and establish a trading market here was a group of top powerhouses in the Righteous Path Sect.
In order to be able to establish a peaceful base here, and to fight against the powerful brute beasts in the surrounding area and the 100,000 mountains, after three thousand years of hard work, they created a force called the "Righteous Path Alliance" here.
The power of this righteous path alliance is huge, unprecedented in history, and its strength is deep-rooted, and it is truly shocking to the point where it is ancient and modern.
In the long history of the cultivation world in the southeast corner of the Divine Continent, all the legendary powerful cultivators, as long as they were famous and powerful, had joined this Righteous Path Alliance.
The cultivators in the Righteous Path Alliance are all strong men in various sects, and in this thousand-year-long mountain range competition and battle, they have launched an active challenge to the army of barbarian beasts here, clearing out the Star Moon Canyon, as well as all the brute beasts within thousands of miles around, forcing the barbarian beasts within thousands of miles nearby to be terrified, and they have migrated to the 100,000 mountains.
After expelling most of the brute beasts from the Xingyue Canyon and having been around for thousands of miles, these sect powerhouses established a new order on the Xingyue Canyon, a treasure land that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
From now on, the Star Moon Canyon, as well as the surrounding two thousand miles, will be the territory of the Righteous Path Alliance.
However, with the passage of time, the once-thriving Righteous Path Alliance has not been able to avoid the fate of being cut and divided.
About a thousand years ago, it is said that there was a great event that shocked countless surrounding countries and sects, and for some reason, a large number of Jindan powerhouses in the Righteous Path Alliance, as well as a large number of strong sects, suddenly left and broke away from the "Righteous Path Alliance", and all of them established forces belonging to the sect or their own cities in different places.
The various accounts of this period of history and the reasons for the division are vague, as if they have forgotten this short history.
There are a lot of speculations in the cultivation world about this problem, some rumors say that it is the giants of the Righteous Path Alliance, or that there are personal feuds and grievances between sects, and there are also rumors that it is the strong people in the Righteous Path Alliance, and there are conflicts over the uneven division of territory... And so on, there are countless speculations, but none of them have enough evidence.
Besides, this history happened too long ago, and the various sects and families are consciously burying this history, so until now, except for those core high-level leaders of the Righteous Path Alliance, no one has really said the reason clearly.
However, the Righteous Path Alliance has been disbanded since then, and there are constant disputes between various sects and forces in the Star Moon Canyon, which is full of gunpowder, which is absolutely true, because such things are still happening from time to time.
It is also because of the split of the Righteous Path Alliance, many high-level powerhouses have fled and set up their own portals, and in this way, the Xingyue Canyon has been surrounded by mountains, and there have been many small forces since then.
Of course, when the Righteous Path Alliance collapsed, those brute beasts in the 100,000 Great Mountains also took advantage of this good opportunity to counterattack several times, trying to kill all these dangerous cultivators, or drive the cultivators in the Star-Moon Canyon out of here and occupy the strategic place of the Star-Moon Canyon from the new.
However, although the Righteous Path Alliance was decomposed, in the face of foreign enemies, all the strong men joined forces again under the crisis of life and death, and repelled the attack of the barbarian beasts in the 100,000 mountains.
In this way, in the long years that followed, the forces of the various sects here were divided and combined, and at the same time, the battle with the barbarians in the 100,000 Great War was also continuous.
The extremely powerful army of brute beasts failed to defeat the cultivators here in the end, and in the end, they were chased and killed by the coalition forces of dozens of sects for tens of thousands of miles, and were forced to retreat to the deeper depths of the 100,000 Great Mountain.
After several twists and turns, the Xingyue Canyon, as well as the surrounding two thousand miles, finally became a stable territory in the cultivation world.
In the classic analysis of Youyu Jian, it is said that the history of cultivation in Xingyue Canyon is the history of the development of hundreds of surrounding sects, the history of the split of the Righteous Path Alliance, and the history of the challenge of the cultivation world to the army of brute beasts in the 100,000 mountains, and the history of the long march of the two races.
In Lin Ze's opinion, this statement is really true.
