The start of the war was largely decided after the intense preparations were almost done, but it had to be pushed back by a day, as there were still some things to be taken care of, and our Guild and Iron Cross fleets were still on their way, and we couldn't put the city down until they arrived. I use this time to do some filing work first, and I don't know if I can bring some benefits to myself.
First, I went to Terry's Aquaman's Palace. This guy is very rough on the surface, but he is actually very thoughtful, and he belongs to the type of wise and foolish. He was approached because he had a good grasp of the situation, and if we could move him, we could at least reduce the American fleet by one-fifth.
As soon as I arrived at the Sea King Palace, I saw the soldiers in the city in a mess, as if they were making an emergency mobilization. Walking all the way to Terry's guild headquarters, as soon as he entered the gate, he saw Terry talking in the main hall. I started greeting him from afar. "Hey! I......! "I didn't say a word, and Terry rushed over like a bison, pulling me to the side hall." Hey, what are you doing? Don't pull me! ”
Terry dragged me into the side hall in one go, threw me into the couch in one fell swoop, then turned and shouted outside, "Just do as I say, and get ready at once." Also, I don't come out and no one is allowed to come within five meters of this room. ”
I sat on the couch and looked at Terry amusedly. "What are you doing here? It's a good thing I'm a man, otherwise I would have thought you were going to rape me! ”
"Do I dare to rape you? It's good if you don't rape me! Terry walked behind the table, grabbed a crystal, and tossed it over.
I opened it and looked at it, and the picture in the crystal ball was clearly a picture of a huge combined fleet moving at high speed on the sea. Judging by the flag, this is the combined fleet of our guilds and the Iron Cross. "...... this thing?"
"Our guild's guide ship was photographed this morning." Terry sat down across from me. "Do you have any explanation for this?"
"Hey, hey. I really didn't expect to talk to you, but you found out first. ”
"Oh?" Terry's voice rose an octave. "Tell me what you're going to do? Two thousand three hundred and seventy-four capital ships, such a large fleet, don't tell me that I am fighting pirates. ”
"Do you believe that I said it was for defense?"
"Defense?" Terry thought for a moment and said, "Are you going to build a city here in the United States?" ”
"Guessed so quickly? That's smart. I looked Terry in the eye and said, "I'm telling you the truth, we just need to build a city here, and a sovereign city." The fleet is used to protect the safety of the city, and as for my intentions, you should know why. ”
Terry was completely silent. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Can you wait for me for a few minutes?" ”
"No problem."
Terry turned and walked out of the room, and after a few minutes, he ran back again. He also has a map in his hand. "Here." He threw the map away, then pointed to a point on it. "Give me here, I promise that there will be no ships from the Sea King Palace in the counterattack fleet."
I looked at the map, and it was not mainland China, but a large island near Japan, which was supposed to be a transit base for our guild. Now it has been useless for a long time because the forward base established in Japan can provide supplies.
"The island can be given to you, but in terms of the fleet, not only can you not dispatch your own guild fleet, but you also have to help me drag down some of the guilds that you can control, and minimize the number of their ships going to sea."
Terry thought for a moment and said, "I can control my ship." But this is the United States, don't you always use your Chinese ideas to measure whether our behavior is good or not? Our side is not popular with relatives and friends on your side, we only look at interests, **naked interests. Your establishment of cities in the United States directly affects the interests of the whole United States, and we have obtained an island in the Sea King Palace. So our interests have been made up, and we still make a little profit. But those guilds are no good. They don't think about what to think about with me. Either you pay and I'll buy them for you, or don't expect them to send troops. It's as simple as that. ”
"So if I want to reduce the number of enemies as much as possible for the least amount of money, can you give me a list of buys?"
"No problem, for the sake of the island you gave me, it's all trivial."
Terry showed me a list of more than a hundred, and the guilds on it had many warships, and Terry gave me a list based on the value of the purchase. I chose more than 30 guilds on my list, and then Terry helped me negotiate with them, and of course, Terry also had to charge an intermediary fee. It's one thing to have a good relationship in the United States, it's another thing to help. Anyway, I told him that there will be a reward for what is negotiated, and only a fixed commission will be given if the negotiation is not successful, so Terry will do his best to help me agree.
After getting the Sea King Palace, the strongman of the sea, it was Yusina's turn to be the Rainbow Alliance. Although the Rainbow Alliance is not as big as the Holy Spear Alliance, after all, it is the largest guild in the United States, and if they don't participate in the counterattack, then we can save some things. In fact, the most important thing is that although we must put down the thing of advancing bases, it is impossible for us to start a full-scale war with the United States, so we cannot do many things too absolutely, and we must always retain some pro-us forces within the United States, so that there will be room for development in the future.
The Rainbow Alliance's navy is not strong, so it didn't notice anything about our operations, and when I met Yusina, she actually thought I was here to visit. I said solemnly to her, "What I want to talk to you about in a moment is something very important, and we'd better find a safe place to talk about it." ”
Realizing that I wasn't here to play with her, Eusina immediately took me to her private area and kicked out all the NPC attendants. "Alright, now you can speak."
"Actually, that's true. Our guild needs to establish a city in the United States. ”
"Don't you have one?" As soon as Yusina asked herself, she reacted. "You mean sovereign cities?"
I nodded.
Yusina immediately said, "That's not a good idea. I hope you can dispel such thoughts. ”
I shook my head. "I'm not here to discuss the feasibility of things with you. The high-level meeting of the Frost Jewel Alliance has already decided on the construction matters, and I am just doing some foreshadowing work for this mission. ”
"Where are you going to build a city?" Yusina asked calmly. I looked at Yusina with scrutinizing eyes. She waited a long time without hearing me answer before looking up at me. It turned into my eyes, and she immediately realized that she was asking something she shouldn't have asked. "Oh sorry, let's change the question. If you want to establish a sovereign city in the United States, such a thing is almost impossible to achieve. ”
"Generally speaking, there is only what to do and what not to do, there is no possibility and no impossible. If you don't do something, it will definitely not be realized, and only if you do it, can it be realized. And also. Let me reiterate once again, this is the decision. I'm not here to discuss with you about the conflict that may arise in the future, not to take advice, so please don't persuade me to dispel my thoughts. ”
"It seems that your opinion is very strong." Yusina said helplessly: "Then what do you have to talk about with me?" ”
"It's because I have a strong opinion that I want to talk to you." I said seriously, "We hope you don't have to participate in the counterattack." ”
"It can't be." I didn't expect that this woman Yusina would be even more iron-blooded than Terry, who seemed to be a big man and three rough men, so she simply rejected my suggestion. "Our Rainbow Alliance is also an American guild, and no matter how good our private relationship is, it is also a private relationship. This is not a force that can influence our guilds. I don't care if you build a normal city, but the establishment of a sovereign city is tantamount to aggression, and I can't give up resistance under such circumstances. ”
"What if there was a suitable exchange of interest?"
"No interests are allowed, sovereignty is absolute and cannot be handed over as interests." The righteousness of what Yusina said was awe-inspiring.
I thought for a moment and said, "Is there really no room for negotiation?" ”
"Nope." Yusina said firmly, "Any precondition for negotiation must be based on the premise that you do not intend to establish a sovereign city, and you obviously do not intend to abandon this plan. So we have nothing to talk about. ”
"You are really resolute!" I shook my head helplessly.
Yusina stood up and said, "If nothing else, please leave!" I'm going to organize the men to stop you from building the city. ”
I smiled indifferently: "It's impossible to stop the establishment, because the city has already been built." ”
"What? That's impossible! Yusina exclaimed excitedly.
I stood up and raised a hand. "To apply for the system certificate deed, I now announce that the sovereign city that the Bank is about to establish in the United States has been completed, please notarize."
"Honesty." The system proved that the system answered very simply. This notary system was originally a kind of security deed made by the main system in commercial transactions, and was later developed by players as a tool to prove the authenticity of their language. Of course, there is a fee for this. And the system can only confirm what has happened, not predict anything for you. Our Rock City is a reward item, and it was already completed, but it just didn't put it down, so I'm talking about an absolutely true fait accompli, and there will be no mistakes.
Yusina's surprised expression flickered, and she immediately turned and walked out. I didn't wait for her to send off, and left the Rainbow Alliance by myself. In fact, Yusina has already been fooled. Systematic proofs can only prove whether what I say is true or not, but truths can also be used to mislead others. Eusina only knows that we have a city in the United States, and that is this magical city, and if we build a sovereign city, all players in the United States will be notified immediately, so since the city has been completed and they have not been notified, there is only one possibility. That is, we intend to directly convert a non-sovereign city that is controlled by the Bank into a sovereign city, and this process can be completed by submitting a system application, which is very simple. Using this method can make the sovereign city complete when it is generated, so that the initial resistance work can be relatively simple, otherwise the city will have to accept the enemy's attack before it is completed, and it is not for everyone to suffer from the battle and build the city. After I said that the city was finished, Yusina immediately thought of Wonder City, so she took it for granted that we would turn Wonder City into a sovereign city.
I deliberately misled this. Since she can't be dismissed from the idea of going to war. Then simply use her to lure the enemy somewhere else, and we can use the excuse of being forced to fight back to gain a moral advantage. Besides, I have a discord plan waiting for them after that, anyway, just try to cause as much trouble as possible for the enemy. War is not only fought on the front line, but also in logistics, politics, and intelligence, which are all extensions of war.
My diplomatic maneuvering can be said to have been half successful and half defeated, at least the Tridy Navy will not mess with me. When Yusina found out that we were going to build a city, she immediately sent to contact the Spear God, and sure enough, all the players in the United States were mobilized overnight.
The outside of our magical city was quickly surrounded by a large iron bucket. The logic of the Americans is to strike first and never give us the opportunity to endanger their interests. So this time, of course, they launched an attack on Wonder City first. However, I have never been a disadvantaged person, and no one has ever been able to take advantage of me.
I had already done something to Wonder City before I brokered with Yusina and Terry, and the city had actually been emptied long ago, and now I was the only one on this side, and the ground near the city had been hollowed out long ago. This magical city was originally developed as a mining area. Now that the underground mine has been completely emptied, leaving a large underground cavity, we have not had time to backfill, and now is a good opportunity to fill the pit directly.
That night, the Spear God surrounded our Wonder City with a large crowd of people, and I operated the few remaining cannons in the city alone. After the Americans fired first, a few symbolic shots were fired outward, which was considered a counterattack. The spear god found that the counterattack was not very violent, and thought that it was because Yusina leaked our secret guide that we were not ready, but under this misunderstanding, he immediately launched an attack with a large number of players, and the army quickly launched a charge.
A small city like Wonder City had no defenses at all, and the city walls were destroyed by cannons, and the army quickly poured into the city. When the troops stormed the city, they found empty streets and houses that had apparently been evacuated. Judging from the empty room, we didn't evacuate in a hurry at all. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to move so cleanly.
After receiving the report, the spear god looked at Yusina with a puzzled face. "Didn't you say they were going to turn this place into a sovereign city? Why is there no one in the city? ”
"No one? How is that possible? Yusina said very firmly: "When Zi Sun came to me at noon today, he said that the city of their guild had been built, and he also used the system notarization to prove his words. Could it be that they still have a city in our America? ”
The spear god shook his head: "Impossible. The Frost Jewels have only one Wonder City in our America. You can't go wrong. ”
Yusina frowned and said, "Could it be that he used system proof to lie to me?" Impossible! The system won't help him lie! ”
An Oriental player next to the Spear God asked, "What did Zi Sun tell you about in the morning when you started the proof system?" That thing costs money, so there's no need to start it all of a sudden, right? ”
Yusina said with some excitement: "I said that I would not let them build the city in the future, and he retorted that we could not stop him, and that their city was finished. I said I didn't believe it, and he activated the proof. ”
The Oriental thought for a moment and said, "Gun God, we may have been fooled." ”
"Fooled? Why? ”
The man explained, "Although I haven't seen Purple Sun, judging from the appearance of their guild all along, their guild has always been very planned, and the layout ability of the Purple Japanese is also very strong. Maybe this is a common characteristic of our Orientals! We're all good at scheming. Judging from Ziri's behavior, he is not only good at using tricks, but also a medium and high master, especially his forbearance ability. To put it mildly, the two of you are not at the same level of psychology as him. Would someone as deep as him argue with Elsa (Yusina's game name) over a remark from President Elsa? This kind of immature behavior can only appear in small children, and it is impossible to appear in Ziri. And he deliberately pretended to be angry and argued with you, and finally activated the proof system, which was deliberately leaked to us, and he knew that this information could influence our actions. ”
"Won't it?" Yusina was a little unconvinced. "How could he have done that?"
The Oriental man shook his head and said, "That's why I said that this is our Oriental characteristic." You Caucasians are probably hard to understand. When Europeans were still living in caves, they wore hides. When the United States was still a barbaric wilderness, the Chinese had already begun a systematic exercise in the art of war. For us Orientals, as long as we are generals, we will definitely command our own army, and to be a good general, we should at least learn to command the enemy's army. Ziri is obviously a clever general, and he has used President Elsa to transfer our command here. Although the direct order was given by the two of you, it was actually Zi Ri who commanded us, and you completely fell into the trap. ”
"So what do we do now?" The Spear God asked a little nervously.
"I think the people should be evacuated immediately, but I guess it's too late now because the transfer has already been done. We've fully gotten into the net, and it's time for the fisherman to set up the net. The Oriental had just finished speaking. They felt a loud tremor beneath the ground. The Spear God and Yusina immediately rushed out of the command tent, only to see what happened before them, and they both were dumbfounded.
Wonder City is collapsing, the huge city and the huge area around it are turning into huge potholes in patches, the ground is cracking into countless fragments and sinking towards the ground, and nothing can be seen in the smoke and dust of the sky. When the spear god rushed out of the camp, he only saw the collapsing city wall, and in a matter of seconds, the smoke and dust engulfed all the forward troops. And it's still expanding.
The Oriental man who helped the spear god analyze the matter leisurely leaned on the camp tent and looked at the battlefield in front of him with smoke and dust billowing and said, "It's really spectacular!" What do you two think of this meeting? This is the ability of the general to mobilize the enemy's army for his own use. Looking at this scale, we have lost at least more than 700,000 NPCs, which is a lot of money! There is also a compensation fee for the player. At least thirty or forty thousand players have been buried. According to the 17% equipment explosion rate, these players will lose 6 or 7,000 pieces of equipment. Wonder City is a mineral city, and the underground must have been emptied. The ten ** on the ground just now were landslides caused by directional blasting. Those buried equipment will definitely not be able to be dug up, so you will have to pay for these six or seven thousand pieces of equipment, and you will go back and count the money first. ”
Americans are more pragmatic, a coconut falling from a tree can hit anyone and can fight a lawsuit, such an obvious work accident gun god and Yusina said that they can't run away from the responsibility of compensation. Coupled with the loss of NPCs, even if it can't hurt its roots. At least the pocket money of the two of them is definitely gone. Guilds that do not have working capital during the war are the best to deal with.
The Spear God and Yusina were drowning in pain when suddenly one of the players stumbled up to them and shouted, "It's not going to grow good!" Look at the forum! ”
"What's wrong with the forum?" It is already common knowledge that large guilds will have dedicated players to watch the major forums 24 hours a day to collect intelligence. The Gun God doesn't know what makes the players in charge of monitoring the forums so nervous. He and Yusina quickly exited the game mode and looked at the forum, and soon re-launched with pale faces, both of them angry.
At this time, the major international forums were already full of comments that our guild was strangled by American players, and of course, all the remarks were unanimously criticized for the Americans' unilateralism and completely using players from other countries as a foil. Due to the abundant video and picture information, the Americans can not deny that they took the initiative to attack us, after all, so many of them are still here and have not withdrawn, and if they want to cover up, they have to wait for the evacuation before they can come out to quibble! How can a robber stand in the owner's house with a weapon and start arguing that he is not a robber?
In fact, these comments are still a second blow to Yusina and the gun god, and the unilateralism of the Americans is not a day or two, and everyone has long been used to it. What really scared them was that our guild announced that this was an all-out declaration of war by the Americans against Chinese players, and that it would immediately launch an unrestricted attack on the leading guilds in this operation, the American Holy Lancer League and the Rainbow Alliance. At the same time, we also said on the forum that some American guilds have been deceived by the ulterior motives of these two guilds, and we will not overturn a boatload of people with one shot, and we hope that these guilds can rest assured that we will only hold these two guilds accountable, and other guilds will not care about the previous matters as long as they no longer oppose us. Finally, our guild declared a retaliatory response. We will immediately launch a devastating assault on the city where the Holy Lancers and the Rainbow Alliance are headquartered. At the same time, a sovereign city will be established in the United States to replace the Magical City that was destroyed by the attack.
No matter what the effect of this remark is, at least we were born in Rock City, and we stand under the banner of morality, and the Holy Lancer League and the Rainbow Alliance have become instigators.
The spear god was telling the Oriental man about these things, and suddenly heard a system prompt.
"Announcement: The Frost Rose Alliance, the Chinese guild, has established the sovereign city of Rock City at the following location." In front of each player, a map appears with the location of Rock City. "This is the Guild's encroachment on U.S. territory, right now. All U.S. guilds have the right to fight back against this act. Within seven days, if the city can be expelled. The territory will remain U.S. territory, otherwise territorial sovereignty will be changed to Chinese territory. Everyone, please work for the integrity of the country. ”
As soon as the announcement ended, the American players were all stunned. Yusina drilled in place like crazy. "How did they build the city? That's too fast, right? ”
"Leave that alone, I think we should go back and save our main city first." The gun god said: "I hope that the people left behind can hold out until we return." ”
The Oriental, who helped the spear god analyze the form, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, even if you go back immediately, you can only see a pile of burning ruins." If I were you, you would just gather troops to attack their Rock City, and leave your main city alone, that place is already hopeless. ”
"Why?" Yusina asked, disbelieving.
The Oriental man asked funny, "Don't you understand?" This qiē is all the purple sun they planned. The so-called revenge against your two main cities was premeditated for a long time, do you think they will start sending troops now? If my guess is right, maybe your cities are already fighting them by now, and they must have started gathering forces after you left. Just because your two empty cities still want to block the large army that others have prepared for a long time? Dream on! When you rush back, you can only see the burning ruins, and it is better to follow them back than that. Keep this attacking force out of the city. An army is much more lethal within the walls than they are in the wilderness, do you want to destroy them in the wilderness or wait for them to enter the city and consume all your earthlings? With the financial resources of the Frost Rose Alliance, I don't think you can afford it. ”
Actually, this Oriental man is very reasonable, and this is the truth. At this time, the headquarters of the Holy Lancer League was in chaos. Because there was a very bad thing above their heads - the Issinger Mobile Fortress. Since the last time three cities were leveled in Germany in a row, the name of Issinger's Mobile Fortress has become a household name, and the idea of city-level weapons has officially appeared on the minds of players. Isengar moves the fortress. That is the real attack power to completely destroy a city at once, which has been proven many times.
At this moment, it hovered above the headquarters of the Holy Spear League, obscuring the sky of the entire city. In the already dark night, the last bit of starlight was obscured by the Erisinger Mobile Fortress, making the city even darker. At that time, the darkness at this time was not a source of confusion for people
Spring. What really scared the people down there was the light source that looked like a small sun overhead, and it was the superweapon that terrified Japanese players and some German players, the kind of magic cannon that could destroy a city at once.
The light showed that the magic cannon was gathering energy, and it was close to a critical state. There are not many people left behind in the city, and the rest of the people can only watch this behemoth in the sky. The artillery in the city did not have enough elevation angles to shoot this big guy overhead. Besides, with this guy's size, everyone knows that these cannons won't do anything even if they hit it. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if it is really knocked down, can the cities below still be able to save zài? Isn't this big pile of things falling and smashing the city below to the ground?
Just as the people below hesitated and didn't know what to do, the sky suddenly lit up, and the people in the city only felt as if the world was completely illuminated, and it was bright and white, and as a result, they couldn't see anything. After the bright light, everyone didn't feel anything and was directly notified of their death, and the reporter who had already been notified by our guild was filming the attack scene with a crystal ball on a nearby hill. Yesterday, she signed a contract with Global News Network to cover the battle, selling them the right to cover the battle of our guild. The entire process of the defense of Rock City will be fully presented on their local news network. We will designate a suitable interview location for them in advance. And a special person will be sent to accompany the commentary. Of course, they have an agreement not to reveal our strategic intentions before the incident, otherwise they will need to pay Dabi compensation.
At this time, in the record crystal of the reporters, a thick white pillar of light descended from the bottom of the Esinger Mobile Fortress and fell directly in the center of the city, and then a sudden red flame aura quickly swept across the entire city, and continued to extend far away from the city wall before gradually dimming, and the majestic city that was still on the ground just now only has a burning pit left, and there is nothing left. Any defense is as pale as white paper in the face of weapons against the city. It does not play any defensive role at all.
Compared to the miserable situation on the side of the Holy Spear Alliance, the Rainbow Alliance is slightly better. Because there are only two giant butterfly cities here, one is the original and the other is a replica, but the effect is the same. The original giant butterfly city flying in front of it ploughed the city with an explosive barrel, and the replica that followed behind lowered its height and dropped 100,000 transformed demon beasts, and then pulled it up and broke away. The city that had just been hit by a rain of bombs was no longer defenseless. The monsters that are thrown down will continue to cause chaos for them, and I believe that when all the monsters are dead, the city will almost be finished. However, we have at least left a city framework for the Rainbow Alliance, and it can still be rebuilt with a little more money, and it will not have to be used as an artificial lake in the future like the headquarters of the Holy Lance League.
The overnight blows stunned the two major guilds, and there was no shortage of patriotic fanatics in a country like the United States. But there are also a lot of people who put their interests first. So the next morning, the army of Yusina and the Spear God was inexplicably less than a quarter, and the remaining three-quarters became angry. Those who had planned to follow Yusina and the Spear God in the guise of patriotism wisely chose to wait and see. They won't lag behind when pinching soft persimmons, but it's better to leave the dangerous work of wolf fighting to someone else!
"Hahahaha!" The backbone of the Guild in the Isenger Mobile Fortress sat with our allies and laughed.
Mingui stood up with a wine glass and raised his glass to everyone: "For the sake of profit." ”
"For the sake of profit." A large group of sub-plutocrats raised their glasses in salute, and then drained the liquid from the glasses together.
Asford said proudly: "I knew that I wouldn't suffer if I followed you." Yesterday's hand was so beautiful! Ziri, you guy is really bad! I guess Yusina must hate you to death! ”
"Yusina?" Red Moon looked at Ashuford suspiciously.
Only then did Ashuford react and say that he was taking the plunge, and quickly changed his words. "Oh. It's Elsa, and Yusina is her real name. I happened to have seen a picture of her in a magazine. ”
"In the magazine? Could it be that she is a model? Eagle asked curiously.
Asford laughed, "Not a fashion magazine. It's a financial magazine. Yusina is the daughter of the president of the North American Electric Group, and the future first rich woman in North America. ”
"That's really rich!" Hongyue sighed: "But no matter how rich she is, this time it will be enough for her to cry." Rainbow City probably doesn't have hundreds of millions of crystal coins that can't be repaired. ”
Feng Yin said mistyly: "It's still a trivial matter to Rainbow City, last night the two dragonfly castles took out so many free NPCs and demon beast pills caught from Japan, it won't be to see the scenery, right?" ”
Mingui hurriedly explained, "They're going to spread trouble. We've dropped a small number of monsters in several of the main cities of the Holy Lancer Alliance and the main cities of the Rainbow Alliance, and while they can't cause a lot of casualties, they can at least disperse their strength and warn them that our guild has a strong long-range delivery capability. They dare to touch our city, and the next second we can send monsters or bombs into their homes. ”
Ashford suddenly asked, "So what are we going to do next?" The Holy Lancer Alliance is determined to fight us to the death, most of the other American guilds will participate in the war, and those spontaneously organized NPC forces in the United States, can we stop so many people? Encroaching on other countries' territory is not the same as guild warfare within your own country, and don't forget that those NPC forces are the biggest trouble! ”
