Chapter 2412: The Situation
There is no right or wrong in war, only victory and defeat.
After the people of the Sea Clan successively withdrew from the territory disputed with the Mountain Clan, the Mountain Clan became more and more frightened.
You know, the Sea Clan and the Mountain Clan have been at war in this territory for an unknown number of years.
Now exited without warning, and it looks like it's going to give up on the area.
However, many mountain tribes feel that there is a problem in this, and it is a very serious problem.
Why did the Sea Clan get out of here? Obviously, they had received some kind of message.
The Mountain Clan then began to try to find out the news, but only received vague information.
It is said that the king of the East China Sea personally ordered the evacuation of the sea clan, and the evacuation of the sea clan was very tense, almost in a day, nothing was taken away.
This news was full of despair for the already nervous Shanling clan.
Although this news has not yet completely spread throughout the Shanling Clan, it has already caused a lot of images within the Shanling Clan.
Simply restricting the spread of the news and preventing it from causing unrest within the Mountain Clans exhausted the leadership.
And at this moment, in the central hall of the Mountain Clan, dozens of patriarchs of the Mountain Clan all gathered together to discuss the situation they were about to face.
As a huge race, the Mountain Ridge Clan also has conflicting interests internally, and there are many large and small ethnic groups.
"Shi Qiao, tell me about the situation. ”
Shi Qiao was the commander of the Mountain Clan who attacked Sky City in the first place, and it was he who brought the news back to the clan.
Shi Qiao stood up, took a deep breath and said, "Sky City has the Sword of Heavenly Punishment, and your patriarchs have already known the power of the Sword of Heavenly Punishment from all walks of life, right?"
None of the patriarchs of the Mountain Clan spoke, quietly waiting for Shi Qiao's next words.
If it had been changed before, as long as more than ten patriarchs gathered in the central hall, then there would be no time for peace, and quarrels would always be the theme of the central hall.
But this time, they were rarely in agreement, because they knew very well that now was not the time to quarrel.
"The city lord of Sky City declared that in ten days, the sword of heavenly punishment will be launched at the same time against a thousand cities of our mountain clan, and at the same time declare that this is our judgment day, of course, two days have passed. ”
"Do you know which cities Sky City will attack?" asked one of the patriarchs.
"I don't know, if we knew, we would have been able to evacuate in advance. ”
While evacuation can minimize damage and cause unrest, it is undoubtedly the wisest option.
This is also the intelligence department of the Mountain Clan in the past two days, and its main job is to find out whether Sky City really has this attack capability, and which city Sky City is going to attack.
As long as they can grasp this information, the Mountain Clan can passively defend.
However, there is no substantive information about which cities Sky City is going to attack, but some unusual actions by Sky City and their allies make this crisis more and more real.
"We can't continue like this, we have to take the initiative, we are the Mountain Clan, not a small emerging city can compare, even if they have the support of the Sea Clan, we have to show our strength, our own position. A patriarch shouted.
"How do you show your strength?"
"Besieging the city-states of the Sky Alliance, we have enough troops to oppress all the city-states of the Sky Alliance, and then use the members of the Sky Alliance to threaten the Sky City and force them to abandon their plans to attack our clan. ”
"Won't this only anger Sky City?"
Some patriarchs are worried that such an advance will not only not ease the situation, but will worsen the situation.
"We have no way back, we can only take the initiative, if they really have the ability to use the Sword of Heavenly Punishment without restrictions, we can also be confirmed in advance, if they are just bluffing, then we can take this opportunity to make Sky City completely lose ground. ”
It was a good idea.
"However, don't remember that this time we must not concentrate our forces too much and scatter them, so that even if the other party uses the Sword of Heavenly Punishment to attack our army, we can greatly reduce our losses. ”
The rare united front of all ethnic groups fully cooperated with this plan.
Subsequently, dozens of Sky Alliance city-states were assigned by the mountain clan groups they dealt with, and each clan or two races besieged a Sky Alliance city-state.
For the Mountain Clan, time was running out, and after they made a plan, they began to actively implement it, and in less than a day, they began to send troops to all the Sky Alliance city-states.
......
"Lion King, five hundred miles away from White Lion City, a large number of Mountain Clan armies have been discovered, with the size of the Mountain Clan army, probably more than two million, they are approaching White Lion City at a very fast speed. ”
This was a message from the spies of the White Lion City, and the Lion King sat in the conference room with a solemn face.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the dispute between the Mountain Clan and Sky City has begun to affect us, what should we do now?"
"I said a long time ago that we shouldn't get involved in the battle between Sky City and the Mountain Clan, it won't benefit us at all, why didn't my brother listen to me before?"
The one who spoke was the lion king's younger brother, Nanshi, who had always been dissatisfied with his brother, and almost all of his political opinions were at odds with the lion king, mainly because of the disputes left over from the power struggle.
"Now we haven't reaped the benefits, but let the Mountain Clan hold a grudge against us first, and now they can't deal with Sky City, and they have begun to send troops to our White Lion City, and now that the catastrophe is coming, what else do you have to say?"
"Hmph! The Holy Lion Emperor of our clan has a deep friendship with the City Lord of Sky City, and this time to send troops to rescue Sky City is also an order of the Holy Lion Emperor, are you opposing the decree of our Emperor?" The Lion King retorted dissatisfiedly: "Besides, even if the Mountain Clan sends troops to the White Lion City, what if the people of the Mountain Clan have not yet arrived at the White Lion City, you are singing about the White Lion City, what are your intentions? Don't forget, my White Lion City is not completely without the power to fight." ”
The White Lion City was originally a big city, and if it weren't for the strong rise of Sky City, the White Lion City would be the largest city in this area, with a population of more than 10 million.
Although it has been overtaken by Sky City in terms of economy, it is still the largest city in terms of population, and it has not a small number of troops, in addition to the guardian Holy Lion Emperor, there are many strong people.
"That is to say, we have to fight to the last of our soldiers to help Sky City resist the pressure?" Nanshi asked indignantly, "You know, we and Sky City are only a commercial alliance, not a military alliance, and we don't need to go to war with the Mountain Clan for Sky City at all. ”
"Joke, now that the business of White Lion City is developing rapidly, look at the industry under your name, it has increased more than ten times compared to the past, if the Sky Alliance collapses, your industry will shrink back to the size of the past, and then your loss will make you the first to jump out and refute my choice. ”
"This is not the time to discuss commercial interests, it is the time for us to live and die in White Lion City. ”
"Survival, don't forget, we are Sky City's staunchest allies, and the first city-state to accept the Sky Covenant, do you think Sky City will abandon us?"
"Even if they want to help us, so what?"
"Heavenly Punishment Sword! Sky City has Heavenly Punishment Sword. ”
"Will Sky City use the Sword of Heavenly Punishment for us? ”
"Lion King, Sky City's diplomat Yikui is asking to see you outside. ”
"Yikui, please. ”
"Yikui, why are you here?"
"That's right, the city lord found out that the army of the Mountain Clan was approaching White Lion City, and he was worried that they would be unfavorable to White Lion City, so he deliberately asked the villain to come to support. ”
"Only you?" asked the Lion King, stunned.
"It's just me. Yikui nodded.
"I've said a long time ago that Sky City just treats us as outcasts, and we'll throw them away when we're done using them. "The Southern Lion began to talk cool again.
The lion king couldn't refute it at this time, and his face was very ugly.
Secretly said in his heart, if it is really as Nanshi said, then don't blame yourself for guiding the mountain clan in front of the formation.
"By the way, I almost forgot, the city lord asked me to bring something that can make sure that the White Lion City is foolproof. ”
"What is it?" asked the Lion King, surprised.
Listening to Yikui's tone so big, the Lion King couldn't help but be a little tempted, what is it that can make the White Lion City foolproof?
"The Lion King should know that two days ago, when the Mountain Clan attacked Sky City, Sky City was unharmed, right?"
"Well, I've heard, but I'm curious how Sky City managed to come out unscathed. ”
"Because the city lord has created a special machine, called the Sky Force Field, once the Sky Force Field is opened, then no one who does not have the ID card of the Sky Alliance will not be able to enter the Sky Force Field, and the people inside the Sky Force Field will also be greatly suppressed, and no matter how they attack outside, they will not be able to destroy the Sky Force Field. ”
The Lion King and the Southern Lion gasped, and the two couldn't help but glance at each other.
"You brought that thing?"
"It has been brought, but it needs to be installed on the lion tower in the center of the White Lion City, I came this time, in addition to expressing the sincerity of our Sky City, it is also to apply for the installation of the Sky Force Field, and at the same time, the Sky Force Field will also be connected to the host of the White Lion City, and then the identity information will be analyzed. ”
"How long does it take to install?"
"About half a day. ”
"We still have thirty percent of the population in White Lion City, and we haven't registered our identities, if the Sky Force Field is opened, will it cause fatal damage to them?"
"No, it will only crush them into ordinary people, and most of their power will be unusable, that's all, which can also prevent some strong people with evil intentions from taking advantage of the fire to rob in wartime. ”
"You're right, please hurry up and install the Sky Force Field. ”
"Okay, please come with me to the Lion Tower. (To be continued.) )
