Chapter 1178: Dragon City’s Intervention
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It had been almost half a year since Meng Chao had drifted from the Raging Tiger River to Guillotine and all the way to Picturesque Orchid Lake.
In addition to the time he had stayed in Dragon City, it was not far from the one-year anniversary of their victory in the Monster War.
In one whole year, Dragon City’s civilization should have completed the preliminary digestion and absorption of the monster civilization’s legacy. They should also be done with the distribution, compromise, and integration of interests of the various major forces within. They should have the ability to send exploration teams and even expeditionary armies to the outside world, right?
Although after Meng Chao’s rebirth, the Dragon City civilization, the chariot that moved like lightning, had gradually deviated from the track of rushing toward destruction in his previous life.
But because of the geographical environment of both sides, the complementary nature of each other’s resources and technology, as well as the treacherous and unpredictable environment of the Otherworld, forced them.
Meng Chao felt that the alliance between the Dragon City civilization and the Tulan civilization was still a high probability event.
However, in his previous life, the Tulan civilization was the leader of the entire chaos faction.
The Dragon City civilization, which had been beaten half to death by the monster civilization, was only in a subordinate position. Many times, they were forced to follow the command baton of the Tulan civilization and dance on the edge of the blade.
This was something that Meng Chao absolutely could not accept.
It was possible to form an alliance, but the leader of the alliance this time was at least the person behind the scenes. Of course, it should be the Dragon City civilization, which was strong and prosperous!
Therefore, Meng Chao could not watch ‘Jackal’kanus or anyone else complete the integration of the resources and combat strength of the entire Tulan region in a short period of time and turn the Tulan civilization into an iron-plate war machine.
Besides, if the Tulan civilization was thrown into chaos for a while, no matter who became the ‘war chief’who commanded all the Orc warriors in the end, they would not be able to easily start a war with the land of Holy Light.
Only when the war between worlds broke out on the Western Front would the Tulan civilization and Dragon City civilization on the Eastern Front be able to take advantage of the situation. This was also one of the strategic goals that Meng Chao wanted to achieve.
In order to achieve his goal, Dragon City civilization had to intervene in the five races’conflict in Tulan Ze.
They had to find a way to nurture an ORC powerhouse who was in line with Dragon City’s interests and ascend to the throne of ‘war chief’.
Through this war chief, he would turn Turan ze into the source of raw materials for Dragon City, the dumping ground for industrial products, the source of servants, and the strongest meat shield.
If he wanted to deeply interfere in the internal affairs of Turan civilization.
Dragon City civilization had to nail a wedge into Turan ze.
Then, he would turn this wedge into the beachhead position for the beach invasion.
The Great Horn Army was this wedge.
According to Meng Chao’s plan, as long as the great horn army could unify their thoughts and give up on the unrealistic strategic goal of attacking hundred blade city and even red gold city, they could break out of the encirclement toward the south with the courage to cut off their wrists.
Even if they lost half of their troops.
The remaining half of the elite warriors who had been through hundreds of battles would be able to escape back to their nest at the border between the golden clan and the Blood Hoof clan.
As long as they stayed in their nest, they could only hold on for a few months at most.
They would definitely be able to wait for the exploration team of Dragon City civilization.
As long as Meng Chaoneng and the Dragon City exploration team got in touch.
Everything would be easy to handle.
The main problem that restricted the survival and development of the Great Horn Army was nothing more than logistics, military rations, and weapons.
Dragon City could have as many of these two things as they wanted.
The straight line distance between the Monster Mountains and Tulanze itself was not far.
In the past, due to the spiritual ripples caused by dragon city’s crossing, the dense fog of war separated the two, resulting in a situation where no one had heard of each other for half a century.
As the fog of war gradually dissipated, the super-powerful and heavy armored airships made by Dragon City, even if they could not make it overnight, could make a round trip in two or three days without any problem.
According to Meng Chao’s observation, apart from the Thunder clan, the high-level orcs’awareness of the airspace was very weak.
The minotaurs and wild boar men of the bloody hoof clan lacked the ability to stay in the sky for long periods of time to patrol and attack.
They also did not have air defense measures such as concentrated anti-aircraft artillery positions.
Even the Thunder clan, those bird men who had the bloodline of air predators and had wings on their ribs and could control wind and thunder, also lacked large-scale, high-intensity, and over-the-line attack methods, they also didn’t have the ability to carpet bomb.
The Thunder clan’s attack was still dominated by high-altitude, high-speed dive, and then close combat.
Meng Chao didn’t think that these bird people would be the opponents of Dragon City’s air gunboats, which were armed to the teeth and could open a dense fire net at any time.
As long as they planned a route cleverly to avoid the Thunder clan’s residential area, from the outer area of Tulanze, through the territory of the bloody feet clan, and all the way to the nest of the great horn army, this air route should be unimpeded.
By then, the Dragon City civilization would be able to transport dozens of armored airships full of strategic materials to the nest of the great horn army in just one day and night.
Among them were the components of the short-distance jump device on the planet’s surface.
As long as the technicians could build three to five ‘teleportation gates’in the nest of the great horn army.
More automatic rifles, anti-monster grenades, compressed biscuits, genetic drugs, carbonated drinks, and extraordinary individuals from Dragon City would appear in the center of Tulanze continuously!
Meng Chao believed that, with the dauntless courage of the Great Horn Army and the skillful combat techniques that they had exchanged for countless sacrifices, even if only one-third or even one-fifth of the troops could break out of the encirclement, as long as they received continuous blood transfusions from the Dragon City Civilization.., they would definitely be invincible and attract more mouse warriors to approach them from all directions.
At that time, the ‘sixth clan’that the ancient Dream Saintess had been thinking about would have a great chance to turn into reality.
As for the reaction of the five great clans to the sudden arrival of the Dragon City civilization, Meng Chao was not too worried.
After all, the number one enemy of the Tulan civilization was still the land of Holy Light in the north.
It was not a secret that the mandala trees bloomed collectively. Even if the human race of Holy Light were deaf and blind, as long as they did not suffer from a bad cold that caused their sense of smell to be completely disabled, they would be able to follow the whistling wind, they could smell the fragrance of the mandala flowers that were as strong as fire.
Turan ze had already changed from the “Prosperous era”to the “Glorious era.”.
According to thousands of years of experience, the land of holy light should also enter a state of full mobilization, where all the people were soldiers and were in a state of emergency defense.
And the “Defense”of the land of holy light was not as simple as just hiding behind the defensive line and passively waiting for the arrival of the Turan army.
The night watchers, Mages, light chasers, and light priests who worshiped the holy light and believed that the entire world would be baptized by the Holy Light, and had even completely integrated into the Holy Light, were willing to sacrifice everything for their faith, they were no less than the orc warriors blessed by their ancestors.
“Strike first to gain the upper hand, defend against the enemy outside the country’s gate, and attack for defense.”This kind of logic was also known to women and children in the land of Holy Light.
As long as they caught a glimpse of a chance, the warriors of the holy light humans, dwarves, and elves, who had been sulking for half a century and were eager to make a contribution, would not mind repeating the “Age of the great extermination order”from 3,000 years ago, they would not mind repeating the miracle that almost killed the entire area of Turanze.
Therefore, it was impossible for the high-level orcs to risk falling out with the Dragon City civilization, which was located on their side and occupied the monster mountain range, which was an insurmountable natural danger.
Besides, the Dragon City civilization had a strategic weapon that was far more powerful than automatic rifles, tanks, armored vehicles, armed drones, and even atomic bombs.
That was food.
The main reason why Turanze had to periodically wage war against the land of Holy Light was the periodic explosion of the population and the periodic lack of food.
Because the mandala tree had entered a state of no harvest, Turanze could be expected to be plagued by famine for the next ten years or even decades.
That was why the high-level orcs had to rush to the land of holy light again and again.
As long as they could fill their stomachs.
Even the unruly high-level orcs might not be willing to be blown into pieces by the anger of mages, the poison arrows of elves, and the heavy cannons of dwarves.
Meanwhile, the Dragon City civilization, which had initially mastered the technology of gene modulation, the method of soil-free cultivation, and the technology of synthesizing nutrients, had long solved the problem of food shortage.
Relying on the underground genetic farm that was like a beehive.
As well as the technology of synthesizing food that could almost turn the bones and plant fibers of monsters into lunch meat.
Even during the most difficult years of the Monster War.
The ordinary citizens of Dragon City could barely make a living.
Not to mention that with the overall victory of the Monster War, the people of Dragon City had occupied the monster mountain range in the hidden fog domain. The place with the most abundant spiritual energy and the most abundant resources had captured and tamed a large number of monsters.
Just the freshest monster meat was piled up like a mountain in the low-temperature warehouse.
Even if all the citizens of Dragon City shook off their cheeks, showed their back teeth, and wolfed down their food for a year or so, they might not be able to finish it all.
The current Dragon City civilization was fully capable of exporting food.
And they treated food as the sharpest weapon.
Which clan was willing to actively approach the Dragon City civilization and carry out mutually beneficial cooperation.
Which clan would be able to get the fragrant canned synthetic food and the monster oil that could cook these canned food into delicious delicacies.
Meng Chao believed that for the citizens of Dragon City, they had long eaten the “Fried lunch meat”that they had vomited.
For the orc civilians and even slaves who had three meals of mandala fruits, it was definitely a delicious delicacy that was worth fighting for.
Of course, Dragon City’s food aid to Tulanze could not be sustained for a long time.
After all, the landlord’s family did not have any surplus food!
But according to Meng Chao’s long-term observation, the so-called famine in Tulanze wasn’t really because the soil was barren and there was a lack of rainfall, which caused the crops to be unable to grow.
It was just that the mandala tree had entered a period of periodic dormancy.
And the high-level orcs had long been spoiled by the mandala tree, a magical plant that had been genetically modified and could produce a large amount of food without needing any care.
They had given up on learning and developing agricultural techniques thousands of years ago.
Instead, they focused on researching and using totem battle armors to kill each other.
In short, the famine that happened in Tulanze was endless.
It was a man-made tragedy that the ancient Tulan people, who had genetically modified the mandala tree, could foresee..
