1929. Chapter 1910 Benefits and Costs

Author: Woniu Zhenren

"How else can I be saved?"

Gu Shaoyu said with abandon, "Even the Frost Barbarians have surrendered to the Holy Light camp. Is there any way to stop the decline of the army?"

"What!"

Meng Chao was stunned.

In the last future and the one after that, the frost barbarians who lived at the northernmost tip of the alien continent, often in the polar night state of dozens of degrees below zero, had always been the most loyal allies of the Dragon City Civilization and indispensable to the Chaos Faction.

Solid combat power.

The sword-like cold wind and the harsh living environment of the eternal frozen soil have sharpened the Frost Barbarians' perseverance and character of being loyal to their promises.

In the arduous battle that cannot be described in words, even though the abyss demons and the so-called "immortal" lichs and skeletons all retreated, the frost barbarians remained expressionless, waving their taller-than-average people.

It is still long, releasing the giant sword that screams death all the time, methodically harvesting the lives and souls of the enemy - such scenes can be found in countless classic battles.

To a certain extent, as the commander-in-chief, Meng Chao trusted the Frost Barbarians even more than the Turan Orcs who were the first to form an alliance with the Dragon City Civilization.

On the one hand, the territory of the Frost Barbarians is too far away from the radiation range of Dragon City Civilization, and there is no conflict of interest between them.

On the other hand, the Frost Barbarians are slow, rough, and somewhat arrogant, which makes them unaccustomed to and disdainful of any conspiracy.

Compared to Canus, the "Doomsday Demon Wolf" whose personality is completely different from Meng Chaoru, these barbarians who can't even lie are more reassuring.

Meng Chao from the previous future even hired a personal guard composed of frost barbarians at a high price.

After everyone rebelled and separated, it was this Frost Guards and the puppets he personally controlled that helped him hold on to the final situation.

Even though the "Congress of the Ice Tribes" in their hometown announced that they would leave the Chaos camp and no longer respond to Meng Chao's orders, this mercenary army remained loyal and fought until the last moment.

Therefore, Meng Chao did not believe that in this future, the Frost Barbarians would actually surrender to the Holy Light camp.

However, when more memory fragments emerged in his mind, reminding him of what this future self had done, he had to admit with shame that the surrender of the Frost Barbarians was a matter of course.

Something worthy of shame.

——The rough outline of the alien continent is in the shape of an inverted triangle, and its geographical pattern is divided into two parts, north and south.

The southern continent is located under the inverted triangle, with a shrinking coastline, sandwiched between the relatively barren Turanze and the Monster Basin surrounded by high mountains.

In the northern continent, which is rich in products and fertile land, the Holy Light tribe occupies the sacred land in the center of the continent. The elves and dwarves are like a pair of wings, guarding the essence of the Holy Light camp. On the outside, there is life.

Various chaotic races in the backcountry.

Except on the southern battlefield, the Holy Light Human Race always had to face the front lines of the Turan Orcs.

On the northern battlefield, the Chaos races such as the Frost Barbarians come into daily contact and fight with the troops of the Elves and Dwarves.

The two sides have forged a bloody feud in the past ten thousand years of war, and they are more willing to regard each other as their primary target.

In the last future, Meng Chao formulated the strategy of "get rid of the wings first, then attack the heart", taking advantage of the air superiority of the Dragon City Civilization's armored airships, coupled with the increasingly mature "planetary surface short-distance jump system", also known as the "portal"

, a large amount of arms, industrial products and even officer corps were continuously put into the territories of the undead, ogres, abyss demons and frost barbarians to help these barbarians who were still in the pre-industrial era and were even drinking blood from their hair.

The people established a crude but effective military system, armed themselves to the teeth, and finally defeated their old enemy for thousands of years.

This strategy not only effectively weakened the power of the Holy Light camp.

It also made chaotic races like the Frost Barbarians feel grateful to the Dragon City Civilization and even Meng Chao himself, believing that he was a hero sent by the Lord of Chaos to reverse the world and save the people.

If it weren't for Meng Chao's perverse behavior, which was too much, and he was stabbed in the back by the remnants of the nine wealthy families, who had no time to take into account the situation in the north, many chaotic races might not have responded to the call of "Doomsday Demonic Wolf" Canus and got rid of Meng Chao's notice.

However, the cost of this strategy is that compared to the elves and dwarves who were beaten to death by the Chaos camp, although the Holy Light people have also been partially weakened, their voice and command power in the entire Holy Light camp are still less.

On the contrary, it has been improved to an unprecedented level, and the entire camp has become more united.

This unity not only gives the Holy Light camp greater tactical resilience.

It also gives the Temple of Holy Light a greater space for strategic detours, allowing it to sacrifice the interests of its allies under forced circumstances.

For example, in the later stages of the war, the lands originally belonging to the allies, the elves and dwarves, were ceded to many chaotic races in exchange for precious breathing space.

In view of this, the future Meng Chao adopted the strategy of "throwing off his wings and striking at his heart" from the beginning.

He felt that as long as he found ways to weaken the overall strength of the Holy Light Human Race and reduce the strength of the Holy Light Human Race to less than 150% of that of the Elves and Dwarves, he would then use coercion and inducement against the Elves and Dwarves to divide and cooperate.

Within the Holy Light camp, there will inevitably be intrigues and multiple orders. When the time comes, there will be more deadly opportunities, and even opportunities to defeat others without fighting.

To be fair, there is no theoretical error in Meng Chao's ideas.

However, at the practical level, the Dragon City, which only occupies a corner of the continent, and the Turan orcs who are in a state of famine, have limited resources that can be invested in a long-term war.

When Meng Chao decided to lock the main attack direction on the southern front, it meant that he would definitely not be able to use armored airships and portals to invest too many arms, industrial products and other products into the chaotic races living in the north and north like he did in the previous future.

Officer Corps.

In this future, armored airships and portals are the most important war resources, and they are directly put on the extremely cruel southern battlefield.

Of course, the carpet bombing brought by the armored airship swarm and the elusive death squad behind enemy lines brought by the portal dealt an efficient and heavy blow to the Holy Light Human Race.

The Holy Light race, which prides itself on standing on the commanding heights of civilization, could never imagine that there is such an incredible integration of sea, land, air and space in the world, completely blurring the pattern of war behind the front lines.

However, the cost of the successive victories on the southern front is that the various chaotic races in the north have not received fundamental modernization, and the battles relying on old methods are still very difficult.
