Chapter 645 The Situation

Although he was going to wrestle with the Aesir Protoss again, Li Mochen at this time no longer needed to appear in person at the beginning of the war.

At this time, there were many gods and mages under his command, and the number of them exceeded that of any ancient god system in terms of the main god rank alone. Although the vast majority of them believe in gods and law gods. But before their faith was extinguished and the law force was truncated, it was also a real god-level combat power. In the case of three against one or four against one, it is still capable of confronting or restraining the ancient gods of the same level on the other side.

And in February of the year 4000 of the Bright Calendar, when the whole world was already in chaos, the 2 million army of the 'Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts' landed on the island of Sumatra under the protection of 4,000 sea beasts.

In the end, they chose Indonesia as the direction of attack, rather than Malaysia, which was closer to the ancient civilization to the north.

What is remarkable is that this time the Beast Empire is no longer using ancient sailboats, but a total of twenty-five 10,000-ton amphibious landing ships, as well as a large number of modern transport ships, including two battleships, seventeen destroyers, as well as an unknown number of submarines, and thousands of landing assault boats.

This is not surprising, as far as Li Mochen knows, the vast majority of the fleet in Southern Africa fell into the hands of the 'Ten Thousand Beast Empire'.

However, according to Heydrich's intelligence, at least six of the warships used by the 'Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts' this time were newly built ships.

In addition to this, a large number of modern firearms and heavy artillery were also present in their armies.

This can't help but make people care, Li Mochen already knows that time is not just on their side. The power of Odin and the Beast Empire is also growing day by day.

But although the situation was so bad, Li Mochen still held on, and waited until three months later, when the fighting spread to Kalimantan and Sulawesi, and the Indonesian government issued a formal request for help, and agreed to a series of conditions between the 'Rising Sun-Light and Magic' alliance and Australia, and then officially sent troops to the war.

This is not a robbery while the fire is burning, and a war with a country like the 'Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts' with tens of millions of outlaws, any force and country will need to pay a huge price.

Australia and Li Mochen's forces are limited to the factors of the geopolitical plate, and they can't help but participate in it to prevent the 'Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts' from continuing to expand, but he can't invest a lot of soldiers' lives and massive supplies without gaining anything, and finally only defend his territory in Indonesia for the Lord of Radiance.

The war between the two sides first took place on the island of Java. It was a standard flank attack, with a total of 850,000 soldiers, and two sub-regiments of the 'Winged Knights' all sent to the south side of the world's most populous island.

However, the Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts had already taken precautions, and before they landed, there were tens of thousands of legendary sea beasts attacking their landing fleet on the sea.

This super-large naval battle lasted for three days and three nights.

The Empire of All Beasts is extremely powerful in the ocean, but the Australian side has a geographical advantage, with missile positions on the two major military bases of Christmas Island and Cocos Islands in the northwest of Australia, as well as 750 'Warrior' variant fighters, and a bomber group of up to 600 planes, giving the landing fleet a strong support.

Eventually, these legendary sea beasts withdrew from the battlefield after leaving behind 1,300 corpses. The losses of the joint landing fleet are also completely out of the realm of the Ten Thousand Beast Empire.

They had one battleship sunk, as many as seven cruisers, and fifteen destroyers destroyed. Three hundred legendary sea beasts and Naga died.

Then, when they forcibly landed, their landing ships also encountered fierce blows from shore-based artillery positions, and 147 assault landing craft of various types were lost, nearly 50,000 soldiers died at the bottom of the sea before landing, and 47,000 soldiers died on the beach.

The bigger blow came after the landing, when the Ten Thousand Beast Empire dispatched a million troops to attack from the east and west, turning the area around Surabaya, the capital of East Java Province, into a flesh millstone.

Those warriors of the Ten Thousand Beast Empire easily adapted to all kinds of gunpowder weapons. However, what is even more terrifying is that after they enter the melee state, it is completely incomparable to the power of ordinary magic professionals. One of their fighters can often be used as two or three.

Although the commanders of the coalition forces at all levels tried to use guns and ranged weapons to solve the problem, they were harassed by sea beasts. The logistical supply channels of the coalition forces are not very smooth, and weapons and ammunition are in a state of lack at all times.

The only thing they can rely on now is their superiority in cutting-edge combat power. The vast majority of the six angel kings under Li Mochen's command are not in the treaty of division and rule between man and god, and they can wantonly vent their power on the battlefield.

Correspondingly, although there are some gods in the Aesir god system who have not signed the "Treaty of Partition of Man and God", their rank is generally low, and the highest is only the rank of powerful gods, which Fenrir and others can easily suppress.

However, the Manifest Destiny Church was limited to their teachings, and neither the clergy nor the angels walking on the earth could ignore the civilians around the battlefield, as well as the cities. The world's most populous island is home to more than 2 billion people with an area of 1.3 million square kilometers. The density of the population is extremely exaggerated all over the world.

This also led to the fact that Robert and others were tied up in the war and could not exert their full strength. Especially those street fights, they are usually in a state of powerlessness.

"Damn the Indonesian government, damn Nugro!"

After a war, Hazel returned to Li Mochen's homeland of destiny with indignation, and the object of her curse was the current president of the Indonesian government.

"If he had called for help earlier, how could the situation have been so bad?"

"You blame him for that, Miss Hazel. Nugro's intention to ask for help was present at the beginning of the war, but it could not be carried out for various reasons. Therefore, Odin, the ancient god of war, is indeed worthy of his name. The situation in Java should be the result of all parties, the will of the gods. The Aesir gods have taken advantage of the situation and turned this island into a trap that we have to step into, a flesh millstone to wear down the power of the Destiny Gods' army. ”

Garcia Ferron, who also came to report the situation to Li Mochen, frowned: "Your Majesty, I think they can actually annihilate all the forces of our landing force in one fell swoop, and the reason why they didn't do so is to attract us to invest more strength." In addition, Australia's defense capability is already weakening, which must be guarded against. ”

"I know, but if they sit back and watch the islands of Java and Sumatra fall into their hands, it's a terrible choice, isn't it? Sooner or later, war will be introduced into Australia, and they will have access to billions of people to support industry and faith. Indonesia's industrial capacity is weak, but it is not impossible. ”

Li Mochen looked at the military map in front of him: "Since they want to lure the enemy deeper, then it will be as they wish." Let's see if their open pockets can wrap around the knife we handed us?"

Although I am very saddened by the huge casualties caused by this, this is not the time for a woman's kindness.

Li Mochen is not without confidence, not long ago, in the two months since the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire invaded Indonesia, the fourth branch of the Divine Wing Knights has completed the initial formation.

Just ten days ago, the Ancient Kingdom of the East provided 3,000 powerful warriors as 'volunteers' to join his 'Winged Knights' as mercenaries. This is undoubtedly a shot in the arm, and it has made a huge addition to his scarce talent pool.

In addition, the layout of 'Rising Sun-Light and Magic' in that country has also begun to take effect, and the hundreds of factories and a large number of raw materials are being continuously transformed into various weapons and war equipment to enrich their armies. With the 'Warrior' type alone, a variant fighter with demigod-level attack capabilities, the ancient country of the East can provide them with three hundred per month. In the whole world, the current production of fighters of the same class is only 500 aircraft.

- That country, although slightly backward in science and technology, has the most complete range of industries in the world. At a time when America's basic industries have moved abroad, it is undoubtedly the most productive industrial country in the world.

And the advanced fighter and armor casting technology of Light and Demon Industry is the valve that opens this 'giant oil well'.

And Li Mochen's approach, when he was still a mortal, would definitely be condemned by America's public opinion and political circles, and he would be 100% labeled a 'traitor'.

But now, no one would do it, and they wouldn't dare to do it. As a powerful god comparable to Zeus Odin, his existence and vision have surpassed the state.

And if in the end it depends on the number of people to solve the problem, then the country can provide him with more than 10 million 'volunteers' at any time.

The war with America at the beginning of their founding has confirmed their war potential, which is also Li Mochen's biggest and most reliable backing today.

Unless the gods and immortals of the ancient eastern country also intend to participate in the competition for the 'gods on the gods' in this world.

This is unlikely, although those great Dao Ancestors and Emperors have left their inheritance in this world, most of them exist in the form of projections. Even if it does, it's too late.

In addition, the kingdom and the god system named Dongying also felt a chill because of the destruction of Britain. At this time, an agreement was also reached with the Rising Sun Group and the Mandate of Heaven Church, and this kingdom would provide certain human and financial support to ease their financial pressure.

The same was done for Goryeo, a vassal state under the umbrella of America. Under the oppression of the army of the Ten Thousand Beast Empire, they are even more insecure, and the financial resources they provide, in terms of the proportion of their financial income, are still above Dongying.

"But in this way, we may have to pay huge casualties, Your Majesty, you have to be mentally prepared. ”

Then Garcia asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, I probably know that Odin and Eris have joined forces to promote the war in order to improve the force of the war. The more battles and strife there are in this world, the more powerful they will become. When war covers every corner of this world, sooner or later they will gain power over the gods. But Zeus, the goddess of the night, and the Lord of Light, why did they allow war and strife to spread?"

This is related to their judgment of the future trend of the war, and Garcia, as a god of strategy, is in charge of the affairs of Australia, so he cannot but understand.

"Let me explain. ”

It was Heydrich who answered him: "Everything they did was against Gaia, and just a few days ago His Highness Robert was ordered to launch a raid on several Aesar temples in South Africa, and found this kind of thing over there. ”

What he showed to the gods was a rod shaped like a giant spear but extremely long in length.

"Our mages have identified it, and they call it the 'Thorn of the Roots'. ”

"Thorn of the Roots?"

Garcia's eyes froze slightly, "What's the use of it? Sounds like it's aimed at the source nucleus?"

"It's a creation dedicated to forcing Gaia out of the roots, and that Mother Goddess has been entrenched in the depths of the world's source core since the Second World Impact. Her existence is like a cancer in the source nucleusβ€”"

Before Heydrich finished speaking, Li Mochen let out a light cough, which was a signal that his subordinates should maintain respect for Gaia.

Gaia was able to hear the conversation here, and they were currently allies.

But at the same time, Li Mochen felt relieved. He knew that most of his subordinates were planning to use the Heavenly Mandate Divine System as a pedal.

The reason why these people worship him as the king of gods is only to survive this era of chaos between the gods.

Once Gaia becomes a true god and has no intention of continuing to tolerate the Mandate of Heaven system, then most of these gods will abandon him as a cheat.

There are very few people under his command like Heydrich, who don't care about Gaia and the future.

"All in all, this thing can make Gaia's divine body have to withdraw from the world roots. ”

Heydrich went on to explain: "Your Excellency Garcia must have guessed? The intelligence we have gathered before has confirmed this, in Indonesia, in India, in England, in Southern Africa, the followers of the Lord of Light are not oppressed too much, and Odin and Nyx are mainly attacking the British gods, Buddhism and the body poison gods. Zeus didn't participate because of his ancient covenant with Gaia, and he couldn't challenge Gaia head-on. This is playing the trick of retreating as advancing, but the only thing he didn't expect was that the appearance of His Majesty gave Gaia a new reliance. Then there is Ahura, who has a fundamental conflict with the Lord of Light and cannot coexist. Whether this person participated in the cooperation or not, I still have to find a way to confirm. ”

After that, he looked sideways at Li Mochen: "But if they want to target Gaia, there is a variable that must be solved!"

"Your Majesty and Gaia have no additional covenant beyond the roots, but they share common interests. If they don't intend to woo His Majesty, or make amends, there is only one solution. ”

GarcΓ­a Ferron was thoughtful: "I probably understand what to do next, and I will work out a more detailed strategic plan with your generals later." ”

What is obvious is that once there is a real agreement between these parties. Then their earthly power will definitely be the target of their joint efforts.

This means that they must adopt a more conservative strategy next.
