Chapter 498: Invade the Otherworld with the Great Tang Dynasty
Most of the world of Ethers is no longer suitable for living creatures.
Examples include the lava plateaus in the north where scorching magma flows, the asphalt bogs in the east that stretch as far as the eye can see, and the extremely dangerous blighted forests in the south.
Needless to say, the deserts of death in the west, although the sand life is more abundant.
But these dangerous creatures that hide beneath the sand are fearsome predators that most life avoids.
Coupled with the terrifying sandstorms and alarming high temperatures, as well as the fact that there is absolutely no life-saving "source of life" in the sand sea, the death sand sea has become a forbidden place for life.
Therefore, the vast majority of biological groups are concentrated in the environment, which is barely okay.
Moreover, it produces the staple food of the creatures of the world of Etes, the central ash wasteland region of Shakudgen.
This is also the reason why, in the eyes of Bai Yuqi and other visitors from the Tang Dynasty time and space, the environment of the Ash Wasteland has been barren and desolate to the limit, but there are still so many wasteland races alive.
The ash wasteland covers an area of tens of millions of square kilometers.
It is about 3,200 kilometers from east to west and 4,500 kilometers from north to south.
The area bordering the lava plateaus in the north and the blighted forests in the south is a forbidden area where absolutely no life exists.
The Ember Wastes are the smallest part of the world of Aetherus.
There are about 50 million square kilometers of lava plateaus, about 20 million square kilometers of asphalt swamps, and about 30 million square kilometers of bare forests.
As for the most vast sea of death sand, Bai Yuqi has not been able to fully detect how big it is so far, and the area that has been explored alone is hundreds of millions of square kilometers.
With such a vast area, with the civilization conditions of the world of Etes, it is definitely a long process to cross the region over a long distance.
Conservative estimates suggest that biological activity was found in the east and south from the spore scout eagle.
To the two armies of the remnants of the Natural Sect, they crossed a march of tens of thousands of kilometers in a straight line.
It takes at least two or three months to reach Ember City, which is located in the heart of the Ember Wasteland.
It is enough for Bai Yuqi's forces to carefully scout enemy intelligence, fully prepare strategic materials, and prepare for battle.
But Bai Yuqi obviously didn't plan to wait for the other party to slowly climb to Ash City before making a passive defense.
After all, around Ash City and Sun City, a large number of various industries have been developed for planting, breeding, resource gathering, and processing.
Isn't it stupid to put the enemy into your own territory and fight once you cause damage?
Therefore, Bai Yuqi decided to defend the enemy outside the country, dispatched troops to take the initiative to attack and meet the battle, used the terrain to build defensive positions along the way, and used the distance to slowly wear down the opponent's troops, so as to reduce his own attrition and casualties.
From the time he started to build Ember City, Bai Yuqi had already sent out a large number of spore scout eagles.
Like migratory birds, the city of Ash is constantly expanding, forming a biological reconnaissance network that controls the entire area, so the environment and topography of the discovered area have long been clearly grasped.
All you need to do is send the Dark Demon Flame Ray Airlift Brigade to drop teleportation arrays at the passes along the way in the direction of the two armies of the remnants of the Nature Sect, and you can quickly dispatch the Infrastructure Legion to build a defensive line.
As a result, when the remnants of the Cult of Nature set foot in the Ashen Wastes, they faced an intricate line of moat defenses, advantageous terrain positions, and countless surveillance posts, defensive bunkers, and desperate trap areas.
In this regard, Bai Yuqi expressed great doubts, even if he didn't take the initiative to send troops to attack, would the other party be able to climb to Ash City alive and smoothly?
As for the detour?
Bai Yuqi, who knows how strong the engineering construction capacity of the infrastructure construction corps is, said:
You go around!
If you can go around, count me as losing!
Do you want to know about the turret stream of "StarCraft" and the positional battles of "Age of Empires"?
Bai Yuqi even felt that if he wasn't too lazy to spend money with the other party, he could even rely on the infrastructure ability to slowly force the enemy together and trap him, and then build an iron bucket-like defense to lock up the other party and starve to death!
Because he was too lazy to personally command them one by one, Bai Yuqi took the eldest grandson Wuji of the "Shaowei Tianque Left Jurisdiction Lingcheng" on the side of the Tang Dynasty Time and Space, Qu Tutong, the "Shaowei Tianque Right Jurisdiction Lingcheng", and Qin Qiong, the "Wing Su Heavenly General".
As well as the Infinite Knights led by Yu Chi Baolin, and the Reincarnation Celestial Legion have all been dispatched, ready to let them, professional soldiers, take charge of this Otherworldly War.
Because the Wuji system on the other side of the Tang Dynasty has been formed, and there are also Sun Simiao, Yuan Tiangang, Li Chunfeng, Ma Zhou and other Wuji disciples in charge, Bai Yuqi's temporary transfer will not affect the operation there.
Although the generals of the Tang Dynasty were accustomed to the miracles and immortal methods displayed by the Wuji Emperor, they also knew that after the Western Expedition, the Twelve-Star Monarch under the Emperor's command opened the "Bridge of Heaven and Earth" to conquer foreign lands.
But when they came by themselves, they were still shocked by the exotic scenery.
Like a group of leopards that have never been far away, they looked around in amazement and curiosity for a long time before they got used to it.
But when looking at those wasteland races, the eyes are inevitably a little weird, why do these people from exotic countries look so weird?
Those little ones are a bit like the "Lilliputian" people mentioned in the Mountains and Seas Atlas, and they look like children.
And those who are said to be slaves who were captured after the defeat, and the blue-faced and fanged ones are not turned into spirits, right?
Although they are accustomed to the Qinling Tribal Alliance, those humanized beasts that are said to have been turned into humans by Emperor Wuji, as well as the beastified people of the Vedic Sect of the Tianzhu Ring Sun Dynasty, have the strange appearance of beast-faced human bodies.
But they can suddenly see the sand barbarian spirits, Gobi dwarves, desert halflings, desert dwarves, as well as sand lizardmen, ash goblins, sand jackals, sand vultures, gravel barbarians and other strange forms of wasteland races, and they still can't accept it for a while.
Fortunately, the time and space of the Tang Dynasty that has been changed by the devil, and the various strange things that have been experienced have greatly exercised the vision of the generals of the Tang Dynasty, so they will not be afraid of just being amazed.
I also know that next, these strange-looking exotic states are their soldiers, and they still need to receive and practice well in order to form a regular combat force.
With experienced professional soldiers taking over the command, Bai Yuqi can sit in the center like a hands-off shopkeeper, and watch the drama while cultivating.
I heard that over there in the Tang Dynasty and space, Li Shimin, the human emperor who had obtained the "Immortal Teaching" of Emperor Wuji and learned various novel military strategies and strategies, had already begun to take the dragon cavalry guards and the Tang Dynasty soldiers to fight around the world.
Bai Yuqi, who has been busy colonizing other worlds recently, has not had time to go back to find out, but he doesn't know how these Tang generals have adapted to the new type of war.
