In just half a year, he has developed the territory from 31 households to over 800, with an average daily increase of 4 households. Even with the assistance of the daily intelligence system, this was no easy task.

It can be said that every bit of this development and progress carries his dedication and effort, and every increase in household was the result of his painstaking labor, working from dawn till dusk.

Without his careful planning and patient management, it would have been impossible for so many villages to emerge in this desolate frontier, or to open up such vast and fertile farmland.

Of course, diligence alone could not have yielded such fruitful results; the key to increasing the territory by a few hundred households was maximizing the absorption of refugees and immigrants from various places, guided by the daily intelligence system's prompts.

All of this is Su Li's hard work, and he absolutely cannot allow the evil Green Dragon to destroy it all.

Therefore, after listening to all the reports, Su Li immediately stood up and solemnly said, "The battle with the Green Dragon concerns our survival; I will fully support Oerstein Commander's request just now."

"Let the Fire Attribute and Wood Attribute Knights of the territory receive Magical Beast meat to rapidly enhance their strength. Those knights who haven't eaten Light-Scaled Fish will be provided with benefits and allowances by the territory, ensuring everyone has a pound of Light-Scaled Fish meat."

"The territory has exhausted its efforts to enhance the knights' strength and welfare. You knights must also have a complete tactical deployment. No matter the cost, I only want victory in this battle!"

Su Li is willing to give everything including the Fire Rabbit meat, which has a direct enhancement effect on Fire Attribute knights below Elite Level. As long as his strength has not reached the elite level, regular consumption will directly increase his strength.

Although Light-Scaled Fish cannot directly enhance a knight's strength, the fish meat has a time effect. On the day of consumption, training aptitude will significantly improve, then gradually decline within a cycle, and finally, it won't completely disappear, causing a permanent and slight improvement in the knight's aptitude.

Therefore, as long as they can win, Su Li is willing to distribute these precious items to all knights and armed attendants.

If they win, everyone can enjoy wealth and prosperity with him in the future.

If they lose, all these precious treasures will become the war spoils of the Green Dragon.

Clearly, at this moment, defending the territory has become a shared consensus from the Lords to the Knights, to the Armed Attendants and even the Free People's Corps.

Knight Oerstein immediately saluted solemnly and said with a firm attitude, "We have completed a comprehensive battle plan against the Green Dragon's invasion and plunder."

He then picked up a thick battle plan from the table, which was handed over to the Attendant Chief by Hilude and presented to Su Li.

"This battle plan is the detailed result of three months of research by me, the High-level Attendant Chief, the Corona Knight Order Leader, and Lord Rong'en."

"This battle against the Green Dragon will be different from previous reckless decisive battles, and indeed from any past warfare situations."

"The hidden strength of the Green Dragon is unknown; hastily assembling our main force for a decisive battle could very likely result in defeat and the destruction of the territory."

Su Li applauded with a smile and said, "Good! Good! Well said; our territory has developed to the point where we have moved beyond the stage of day-to-day survival."

"We now have the capital to deploy strategies and no longer can recklessly confront every monster with all our main forces, risking everything only to be restored later."

"Securing victory before entering battle is the tactic or strategy Su Li values most."

The Art of War, with its thirteen chapters and six thousand words, ultimately condenses into the essence of securing victory before engaging in battle.

Therefore, Su Li earnestly asked, "How does the territory plan to respond to the Green Dragon in this battle?"

Oerstein Commander said, "Hesse Territory and Deceitful Wings both have profound foundations and accumulation. After engaging the alliance with the Dwarves, we more clearly reached a consensus that defeating the Green Dragon might be achievable, but to slay it may be nearly impossible."

"Thus, in the event of a comprehensive war involving two forces, we must be prepared for a war that could last six months or even a year."

"Time is the key to our victory; a war of attrition is our core tactic in defeating the Green Dragon this time."

Su Li furrowed his brows and asked, "Comprehensive warfare, to drag it out with the Green Dragon to achieve victory? What does this mean?"

Frankly, Su Li didn't quite understand how the Sun Goddess Church formulated such a strange tactic.

If it weren't for the fact that the strategy's contributors were all Divine Chosen Level knight candidates, he would suspect the knights were afraid of the enemy and tricking him.

But fortunately, Su Li has always been self-aware. The experience from his previous life as a salaried employee was significant, teaching him the importance of humbly listening to others' opinions instead of being impetuous and arrogant.

He is very aware, in military command, at best he could be considered mediocre, at worst an utterly ignorant fool.

Leaving professional matters to professionals is his wisest choice.

These knights of the Sun Goddess have studied military tactics all their lives, drawing from the strengths of various schools.

Clearly, having the Hesse Army Marshal command this war offers a much higher victory rate than him blundering his way through!

So he patiently listened as Knight Oerstein continued his detailed explanation.

"That's right, just drag it on. The Green Dragon is actually much more afraid of attrition than we are! This is even considered one of its greatest weaknesses."
