Chapter 151: Another War?

A new piece of news has once again brought the country of Gusi, which has just entered a period of stable development, into a state of turmoil.

Duvese suddenly and forcefully intervenes in the war between the Kadesa and the Tiger Shadow Lord, and completely ignores Horta's opinion, helping the Kadesa Territory devour the Tiger Shadow Lord. The Khadesa Territory was then annexed to Duvese and declared war on the Ramono Territory less than five days after the merger was completed.

Inner ring with ten collars.

Kadesa Collar, Tiger Shadow Collar, Ramonno Collar, Bollard Collar, Andulan Collar, Withers Ring, Bandser Collar, Snow Peak Collar, Desailly Collar, Doulaci Collar. The level of strength of these ten realms is not much different, which itself is the result of the control of the original seven powers.

I won't let them sit big, and I won't let them be too weak. There won't be much difference in strength between them.

Mutual checks and balances, left and right control, this is the control means of the inner ring powers for the ten collars.

It's not that the Ten Leaders are stupid enough not to know this, it's just that they are destined to be unable to get rid of one point, and their Ten Leaders have created irreconcilable contradictions with each other under the control of the great powers where they were founded.

For example, Kadesa and Tiger Shadow are definitely undying contradictions. Even if there is a crisis situation that requires them to join forces, it is to be wary of each other, and at any time they think that the other person will stab them in the back - and it is a big head, and they themselves do plan to do so.

There are many more of the same.

For example, the Snow Peak Leader and the Douglas Territory have a good relationship, but the Doulac Territory and the Withers Territory are mortal enemies, and coincidentally, the Snow Peak Territory and the Withers Territory are strategic alliances, and the two have been intermarrying each other for many years. In this case, it is estimated that a sociologist would not be able to figure out how these three families made the relationship so complicated.

The current seven powers have become the six major powers, according to the tradition of the inner ring, it should have been to support a new big country in the short term, so that it can supplement the position of the seventh country, but now under the agitation of Tang Dou, the five countries only want to divide all the interests of the Sand Tooth country, and then use the sand tooth country's own oasis as a strategic buffer zone, which is jointly operated by the five countries and the interests are equally divided.

It was for this reason that the Kadesa Collar and the Tiger Shadow Collar, who had been waiting for the news of the truce during the battle against the Sand Tooth Country, fought again.

It has been more than half a year since these two lords began to wage a full-scale war, which is not surprising at all in Arsa. If it weren't for Tang Dou's "teleportation array" and puppet army, even if the six countries did their best, it would not be possible to cripple the Sand Tooth Country in just three days and completely destroy it in a week.

In a country where all the country's territories are isolated by deserts, and where two-thirds of the regular march is spent on supplies and marches, it is not a problem to fight a full-scale war for half a year.

You must know that the war between Regis and Knox was fought for ten years, but even so, the dead combatants did not die as many as Tang Dou in a civil war.

The key is that under the regular combat methods, it is difficult for Arsa, who lacks all kinds of large-scale war weapons, to kill those masters above the gold level. However, the appearance of Tang Dou's puppet army directly defeated the people of the Arsa countries based on the slave contract war model.

It turns out that the slave contract still has such a fatal weakness.

Once the slave owner dies in battle, the war slaves are even more destroyed in batches.

Many people can think of this, but under the protection of the army of war slaves, how can the slave owners die so easily?

But Tang Dou used the elusive "teleportation array" and the puppet troops that were almost undetectable before the launch, plus explosions, explosions, and explosions to tell all the Arsa people that it was too simple to kill the slave owners in the army of war slaves.

Under Tang Dou's unconventional mode of warfare, he not only increased the mortality rate to a point that scared the Arsa people in several wars, but also completely changed the war mode here.

Although it was not as thorough as Tang Dou had done in the Gusi Kingdom, now some of the five countries and even the ten realms had received the news, and they had also begun to change the structure of their war slave army. Naturally, they can't do such a thing as turning war slaves into civilians, but they can divide the war slave contract.

The most obvious is that they distributed the slave contracts, which were originally concentrated in the hands of the nobles, to the high-ranking war slaves.

For example, the slave owner controls the high-level war slaves, the high-level war slaves control the intermediate war slaves, and the middle-level war slaves control the low-level war slaves. In this way, the division of layers has greatly reduced the embarrassing situation of a large number of war slaves dying as soon as the slave owner dies.

Of course, this is only a palliative approach.

Nations, and lords, are now trying to work on a new pact that gives them absolute control, but doesn't die because of the death of the slave owner.

However, rune technology is inherently high-precision. Arsa's various slave contracts are the result of thousands of years of development, and the war slave contract does not even belong to the modern rune at all, but to the ancient elves and the simplified magic rune.

This kind of rune was originally used by the demons to enslave the races of the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm during the invasion of the demons, and later it was passed down by some fragments of the people of Arsa, which developed into this specious thing.

Before Tang Dou mastered the Nine Spirits Rune, he couldn't change this kind of slave contract (although he could crack it and write a new contract with similar functions, he couldn't change the original contract), let alone the people of Arsa.

Don't look at the time when the protons of the Five Kingdoms came to the Gusi Country, the research on the "Demon Teleportation Array" was in full swing. On the one hand, they themselves came prepared, and on the other hand, because of Tang Dou's guidance on the side (although this guy dug a pit while guiding).

Now let these people study for themselves a contract rune that they were used to before but never really studied its essence for, and that was not something that could be made in a short period of time.

To put it bluntly, Arsa is a wild place, a desert of all knowledge and civilization. This place is not without geniuses, on the contrary, perhaps because this is a desert of knowledge and civilization, more geniuses will appear, and it seems that in the dark, a kind of compensation between heaven and earth will be here.

But sadly, no matter how talented people are, they don't have enough cultural environment and background, and they can't study a kind of knowledge out of thin air.

Rune knowledge, even if it is outside, is something that only a very few people can learn. Tang Dou was not unlucky at all, he got various inheritances one after another, plus he himself had a talent for runes, so he became a rune master.

It is conceivable that it will take a long time for the five countries to change the war slave contract.

It is also conceivable that Tang Dou will never give the other party such a long time, but Tang Dou has no excuse to deal with the five countries now, after all, the power of the five countries really wants to unite to fight against the Gusi country with all their might, and Tang Dou is also very headache, so he can only wait for the opportunity.

Under such a premise, in fact, what the remaining six powers in the inner ring have to do is to develop their own strength.

At the same time, in order to fight against Tang Dou, the most powerful enemy, the five countries should join forces, even if they can't really cooperate sincerely, at least they shouldn't start a war on their own.

But it was at this time that Duvese made such a strange move.

It seems that they didn't directly attack other countries, but they first forcibly ended the war between the Kadesa Territory and the Tiger Shadow who were at war under the promotion of the Horta Nation, annexed the Tiger Shadow Territory that was secretly connected with the Horta Nation, and then let the Cadesa Territory merge with themselves.

This is tantamount to cutting off Horta's beard. Originally, he had been planning for a long time, and after waiting for half a year, seeing that the Kadesa Collar and the Tiger Shadow Collar could no longer fight, Horta could intervene in the war at this time, let the two sides cease fighting, and then when they reaped the benefits of the big benefits, Duveser inserted a lever and took away all the benefits of the Horta country.

But that's not all, what's even more shocking is that they declared war on the Ramono Territory.

Ramono's collar is the lower in the middle of the ten, and there is no comparison between Kadesa and Duvese, who are already at the top of the ten, but they have a very hard backstage.

That is the country of Gus.

The fundamental reason why Ramonno has always been regarded as a traitor by the other nine leaders, an alien, and has always been rejected by the other nine leaders, but he doesn't dare to really do anything to them is that Ramonno is a staunch follower of the Gus Kingdom. Let's keep it simple. The daughter of the lord of Ramonor, the half-elf wife of Crowley, the second mother of Crow, the mother of the country of Gus.

And Ramonno, the lord of Ramonno, is also a very sober person, although he is close to the country of Gus, but he is also well aware of Crowley's habits, and he does not do anything excessive in this capacity, everything is based on self-preservation.

Such an honest territory that only seeks self-preservation, not expansion, was suddenly declared war by the Duvese state.

Everyone knows the relationship between Ramonno and Gusi, and everyone knows very well that declaring war on Ramonno is a slap in the face of Gusi.

In such a situation, how did the Gus Congress react?

"Hit back! Destroy Duvesse too! Ryan slapped the small square table in front of him and smashed it.

"This table is worth two catties of grain, you remember to pay for it in a while!" Tang Dou made the following judgment on Ryan's behavior.

Ryan froze for a moment, and said with a smile: "Director Nicholas, now is not the time to talk about this. Are we going to watch Ramonno get knocked down? They will definitely not be able to stop Duvese's attack! ”

Hallie was speechless for her old partner, and slapped the excited guy down: "Sit down for me, the director has his own ideas and preparations." Who says we don't do it anymore, but do you think it's as simple as just doing it? ”

"How hard is it? With our current military strength, what is the difficulty of dealing with those Duvesse guys? The current combat effectiveness of the First Army is not comparable to that of the previous war slave army. And we've got rune golems and Enheria, and the Council's teleportation array, and we've even got two replica birdwing ballistas. Hmph, I don't believe I can't take those guys! ”

When it comes to replica birdwing ballistas, Ryan is excited.

This is a knock-off of the bird-wing crossbow that Tang Dougang took out not long ago, although it is claimed to be a copycat, but in fact, the tactical value is no worse than the bird-wing crossbow, this thing can launch a heavy crossbow spear two thousand meters away, which is much stronger than an ordinary military crossbow.

It doesn't count. What's really powerful is that the crossbow spear fired by this thing can be replaced in multiple versions.

For example, soul bombs, such as soul power concussion bombs.

And the most insidious positional crossbow spears.

This thing can directly locate enemy troops, and then teleport a batch of self-detonating rune golems past.

In the fierce battlefield, no one would care about the crossbow spears that had been shattered, but at this time, the fragments of those crossbow spears exploded with dazzling light, and it was rumored that a group of self-detonating demons had come. And then there's boom!

How disruptive will this be?

Only Crowe, Hallie, and Ryan knew about these two replica birdwing ballistas, and they were highly classified for everyone else. What even these three people didn't know was that Tang Dou could actually completely make a genuine birdwing ballista, and he had already made one, plus the two birdwing ballistas he owned that had been completely repaired and restored to all abilities, the tactical-level weapons in this guy's hand were already quite terrifying.

"It's not difficult to kill Duvese's people, it's difficult for us to know why they chose to die like this at this time!" Tang Dou waved his hand, telling Ryan and Hallie, who were glaring at each other, to be calm.

"What do you think, Crow?" He looked at his "disciple"

If Lin Xiao and Ellie are his comprehensive personal disciples, then Crow should be regarded as disciples above the "government affairs". Crowe is not a person who is good at fighting, but in terms of intelligence, personality and other factors, she is much stronger than Lin Xiao and Ellie.

Lin Xiao and Ellie may grow into a strong man one day, but with Crow's words, she will become a queen.

Clau pondered for a moment: "Teacher, I think there is a lot of problem here. If we send troops, obviously, we will also send troops, then it will reduce the defense strength of the country, and if those families with ulterior motives do something at this time, the country will be in danger! I don't know how Duvese is so confident, they should know that even if our domestic troops are transferred, we can transfer them back at any time with the convenience of the teleportation array, and even if they have to attack us for a long time, they will not be able to do it. But I think they must have some special power in their possession that they are not afraid of our return at all. The only thing they worry about is whether you are in the country, teacher, as long as you are not in the country at the time of their attack, or ......"

At this, Crow paused, and she frowned: "Or maybe I know what Duvese's people are trying to do." According to the teacher's habits, it doesn't matter whether the teacher participates in the expedition or stays in the country. Regardless of whether the teacher is rushing to support the front line or returning to the country, he will act alone first. It is very likely that the other party is looking for this short period of time when you are acting alone, teacher. They may have some kind of self-confidence that they can attack the teacher for a while! ”

A smile tugged at the corner of Tang Dou's mouth: "Oh? So, their purpose is me? (To be continued.) )
