Chapter 208: This Road Doesn't Work
Lu Yao was inspired by the Black Water Strider invasion.
There is nothing wrong with the strategy of the [whistleblower] itself, using specific species with super fecundity to inflict a devastating impact on the ecological chain of the entire world.
It's just that Lu Yao was too advanced in his development, which caused the Black Water Strider to become a new economic species soon after it appeared.
This time, the insect selected by Lu Yao was locusts, and the target was directly aimed at the rear grain area of the Fifth Dreadnought Empire.
He first threw locusts into the experimental area.
A relatively mature and stable ecological chain has been formed here, with predators such as white and wild flame birds, spade beetles and monster grass on the ground, two species of butterflies acting as ambassadors for plant dispersal, and the trees are the world of paramecular rats.
With Pinkerman in charge, the ecological structure can be adjusted at any time.
After being busy for a while, Lu Yao named a new transcendent species.
……
【Green Locust LV1】
Health: 7/7
Mana: 1/1
Damage: 2
Defense: 1
Speed: 7
【Endurance】
……
【Group Living】
When combined, it creates more power, and the more there are, the greater the amplification.
……
He then opened the Golden Fields and further transformed them.
Lu Yao clicked on the Tree of Silvanus, and the creation map of the Tree of Creation appeared again.
He selected the species [Green Flying Locust] and the item [Tyrant Whale Beard].
After being fused with the Tinder prop, the locust became slightly larger, its HP and panel increased slightly, and there were some fine white patterns on its body.
Abilities that can be granted include:
Positive Abilities: [Rapid Breeding], [Dive], [Bleeding], and [Camouflage].
Negative Abilities: [Gluttony], [Madness], [Seasonal Death].
Lu Yao chose two abilities: one positive and one negative.
……
[Rapid Breeding]: It can reproduce the next generation at a very fast rate.
……
[Gluttony]: An irresistible desire to eat, which can consume a large amount of food at a time.
……
These two abilities are best suited to locusts, and with the two initial traits of stamina and social dwelling, they are perfectly suited to the positioning of guerrillas behind enemy lines.
Lu Yao named it [Bully Locust].

Please select the world where you want to place the species. 】
This time, in addition to the unnamed fragmented world, there is also an additional kingdom of Uzi.
Lu Yao chose the latter.
The vast majority of the Uzi Kingdom is gravelly, the ground vegetation is sparse, and the Uzi people do not grow food and do not depend on it. They themselves are a special elemental creature, and to say that food is also the black element and other ores underground.
Therefore, the release of locusts has no effect on them.
Moreover, there are not many edible plants here, so once the bully locusts have completed their initial reproduction, the next step will inevitably be to migrate towards the dreadnought empire with many farmlands.
Lu Yao observed the movements of the Dreadnought Empire and waited patiently.
At this time, he noticed that the Imperial army began to make a big move.
On the ground, one army after another advanced further towards the hinterland of the Uji Kingdom. The fact that they were able to advance so accurately was thanks to the surrendered Uzi people, who acted as the leaders at this time.
The fate of the captured Uzi warriors was a different one, they were tied up and walked to the front to be used as cannon fodder and meat shields.
This made the Uzi defense and counterattack even more constrained.
On the imperial side, the momentum is like a rainbow.
The leading officers and generals issued the declaration of the conquerors along the way.
"The obligation of the weak is to submit, and to rebel against the empire is to kill themselves!"
"The Dreadnought Empire is invincible, and you underground worms are just untouchables like mules and horses, and you want to block the Empire's iron hooves?"
"The Empire has not yet launched a killing spree against you, which is the mercy of His Majesty the Emperor. As long as you believe in Lord Boshen, offer your faith and loyalty, you will be redeemed, and you will become glorious citizens of the Empire! ”
"Backward and barbaric civilizations must be washed and evolved in the light of empire."
"It is our mission and responsibility to transform you, and it is your obligation to accept transformation."
"It's all for the faith and glory of the gods!"
……
The capitulation faction of the Uzi who led the way was also speaking in sign language and on stone tablets carved with their words of persuasion.
"Brothers, whether you or we are loyal to this land in our hearts, but our choices are different."
"If the war continues, it will only kill more people, and everything is meaningless. First there were the people of Uji, and then there was the king of Uji, and then there was the kingdom of Uji. ”
"We must admit that Uzi is a backward inferior race, who cannot smelt, who cannot plant, who cannot write, who cannot sing and dance, and whose body is heavy like a tombstone. This is the original sin of our ignorance and shame. ”
"Only by embracing the empire can we be given true civilization!"
"Brothers, don't be fooled by King Uji anymore, the empire is not launching a war, but liberation!"
"The future of the Uzi is in the empire."
……
Lu Yao watched coldly.
The Dreadnought Empire does have a hand in understanding war.
From physical strikes to mental strikes, the annihilation of living forces and the creation of internal contradictions, it seems that these tricks have been used in the past.
……
In the face of the enemy's heavy attack, the Uzi Kingdom was a little tired to deal with.
The end result was that they had to keep retreating, giving up large tracts of land.
Although the Uji people came to the underground, they also built a stone mountain on the ground, which further expanded and extended the space, which was also a manifestation of the Uji people's obsession with space.
Mountains of stone were destroyed, forcing them to shrink back into the ground.
Soon, the Imperial legions attacked from all sides, and arrived at the last bastion on the land of the Kingdom of Uzi, which was also the place where Isabel visited the King of Uzi.
It is said to be a fortress, but in fact, there are cone-shaped mountains on the ground.
The cone-shaped mountain is called the earth arch by the Uji people, and there are stone caves that can be closed outside the earth arch, which can allow the Uji people to move to the ground, and the mountain is full of passages, and the inside can dock the ground boats.
It is also the only city in the Uzi Kingdom, which is called "Uda", that is, the place where the Uzi people arrived.
Viewed from the air, Uda resembles a series of mountains, except that each mountain is neatly arranged, and there is a peculiar beauty of order.
The Imperial army has surrounded the area, ready to completely destroy the last line of defense of the Uzi.
If this place falls, they will lose their hiding place on the ground.
The Uzi will hide in underground caves and scatter like gophers to flee for their lives.
When people's hearts are scattered, it is difficult to unite again.
The imperial generals knew that as long as they destroyed this Uzi city, it would be a straw that crushed the Uzi people who were struggling to support them, and made them completely lose confidence and fighting spirit to resist.
It would be better if King Uji made a move.
Even if the soldiers died at the hands of this god, it would be a great honor, and the family and children would receive imperial favors and fiefdoms. For the soldiers who died for the gods, the emperor has always been unsparing in rewarding, which is also the confidence of the imperial soldiers to fight frantically.
At that time, the god of glass will be able to kill this god who has been hidden all along, and win the war once and for all.
The first legion arrived outside the city of Uda.
The general on the horse raised his iron sword: "Soldiers! Conquer this city of xenists! How many feudal rewards you can get from the emperor depends on how much courage and fighting spirit you have! ”
"Make a meritorious career, just in this battle!"
The soldiers raised their shields and spears and followed the general into the city in the face of the Uzi throwing stones and explosions.
Since Uda didn't have any decent walls or fortifications, the Imperial legions easily crossed the stone fence on the edge.
They killed the Uzi warriors with bows and spears, and had the militia dig open the arches of the earth and salvage the strips or shuttles inside, all valuable trophies.
All the Uzi people were retreating, all of them converging under an arch.
The general found it strange.
The cone-shaped hill is no different from its surroundings, neither tall nor with any special ornaments or carvings, the only difference being a rudimentary fence filled with stones.
Could it be that this leads directly to the shrine of King Uji?
The general's eyes burned.
He shouted, "Soldiers, listen to my orders, form a formation, and take down that arch!" ”
When the soldiers who had been scattered heard the commander's order, they immediately lined up again, and advanced forward with shields and guns.
The archers in the rear fired round after round, so that the Uzi warriors had to hide behind the stones, and they could not show their heads at all. They could only throw stones indiscriminately in vain, but these stones could not do any damage to the shield of the Imperial soldiers at all.
Just as the soldiers were about to rush through the fence, a group of blue weirdos suddenly rushed out from behind the arch.
The blueskins, numbering in the hundreds, were covered in arrows, but seemed to be completely unafraid of pain. They just frantically and easily rushed into the Imperial Legions, brandishing axes and hammers in their hands, quickly destroying the army formation.
Extraordinary power!
The general was shocked.
King Uji even hid a powerful elite guard.
The general immediately ordered: "Retreat, retreat!" ”
He was the first to transfer tactically on horseback.
The soldiers behind also immediately retreated.
But after running for a while, the general realized that the other party was not chasing. They seem to have some kind of restriction and can't leave the arch around?
The general was a little annoyed, but he was still careless, and he was too light on these barbarians. No matter how backward they are, they are also protected by the gods.
At this time, a fellow commander next to him also arrived, laughing at the embarrassment of the general's team.
"It seems that the honor of this broken city is destined not to belong to you."
"It's better to train and train the soldiers in normal times, don't think about giving gifts and banquets everywhere all day, this is the general's job."
The other party was angry for a while.
The general's face was a little ugly.
Not long after, watching this colleague lead the team to charge with great ambition, and then being killed by the blue-skinned man turned over on his back and rushed back with his head in his arms, which made the general feel a lot better.
After some time, the third legion also arrived, and although the three parties combined killed a few blueskins, they were still unable to break through the defensive line.
The blue-skinned man fought fearlessly and conveyed an extremely resolute attitude.
This road is not working.
However, the generals are not in a hurry, once the sand lizard army in the rear arrives, they can use giant crossbows to carry out long-range bombardment, and the blueskins will not be able to protect this arch.
And in the face of such a strong enemy, His Majesty the Emperor, as the chief apostle, should be there in person, and it will not be a problem at that time.
Large-scale warfare, guard against arrogance and rashness.
The generals reorganized their soldiers, set up camp, and waited patiently for the follow-up orders of the Empire.
……
The Corruptor Legion entered, immediately stabilizing the battle line.
However, a full-scale counteroffensive still needs an opportunity.
Lu Yao could see very clearly that the dense bully locusts had arrived in the Boshen Realm and began to sweep the farmland and woods in a mighty manner.
He's not in a hurry.
Let the swarm fly a little longer.
