Chapter 424: Defensive Strategy

Bloody planet.

The expeditionary force officially dispatched troops and headed towards the second target area. It was delayed by about half a month compared to the expected time of dispatching troops.

The main reason is that the Carter tribe, a large tribe in the second target area, and the Lixi tribe, a large tribe that originally belonged to the fourth target area, have joined forces to prepare to resist the expansion of the expeditionary force.

The reason for delaying the dispatch of troops for half a month was not because Gu Li, the actual commander of the expeditionary force, was worried that he would not be able to defeat the two large tribes, but because he wanted to wait for the Carter tribe and the Lixi tribe to formally unite before defeating them in one fell swoop.

In this way, you can save the time required for each defeat.

If the troops are sent out half a month later, the soldiers can take turns going to the Cave Heaven Paradise to practice for an extra half month.

In fact, as early as after easily conquering the Bone Spur tribe, the senior leaders of the expeditionary force had thought about the plan of sending troops in multiple directions.

Because he successfully conquered the Bone Spur Tribe and the Kailin Tribe, he conquered them almost without any damage.

Almost all the top fighting forces of the two tribes surrendered and signed a life and death contract with Chief Nika.

Coupled with the integrated armies of the two tribes, the strength and strength of the expeditionary force increased dramatically.

Coupled with several months of rest, the average strength of human warriors has improved significantly again, and top geniuses have also broken through to the first level of the spiritual enlightenment stage. It is fully qualified to divide the troops into two groups and attack two areas at the same time.

However, this idea was eventually rejected.

After thinking about it, Gulis still felt that it would be better to wait until the second area was conquered before dividing his troops to attack two or more areas at the same time.

Because according to her estimation, after the top geniuses break through to the first level of the spiritual enlightenment stage, they will not be able to improve their realm without the "Chaos Art" at the spiritual enlightenment stage.

Therefore, the day for the seventh new Kung Fu teaching is approaching.

After the seventh new technique is taught, the top geniuses and warriors will become stronger, and it will be safer to launch a multi-channel attack.

Even though Yi Chen did not teach the seventh new technique because of something else. At that time, the average strength of ordinary soldiers had also been greatly improved, and it was still safer to divide the troops than it is now.

The root cause lies in the human warriors, who played an unimaginable leading role during the battle.

But the level of strength of the human warriors themselves is still a little behind.

Splitting the troops into two groups would easily increase the casualties of the human warriors.

As the population of the Great Yan Empire is insufficient, at this stage, any situation that may increase casualties should be avoided as much as possible.

What pleased Gu Li and a group of human generals was that they gave up dividing their forces and accelerated their unification of the bloody planet.

However, a large tribe formed an alliance to help the expeditionary force speed up its unification of the bloody planet.

The alliance between two large tribes, even coercing many small and medium-sized tribes, has indeed increased the target's strength several times.

It seems that the difficulty is greater than attacking two large tribes with two soldiers.

In fact, it is completely different.

Because of the combination of Wujie's top geniuses and strong men, as well as the powerful long-range attack capabilities of human warriors, it would not be a problem for the expeditionary force to attack the remaining eight large tribes on the bloody planet at the same time even if they were divided into eight groups.

Gu Li and the top human race officials were unwilling to divide their forces, purely because they wanted to minimize the casualties of the human race soldiers.

After all, with 700,000 clan warriors gathered together, even the 120th level Black Tiger clan powerhouse could not get close.

If the troops were divided into more than 300,000, or even less than 100,000, even a strong level might rush into the camp, which would be too risky.

If possible, Gu Li and the top human race officials would not even mind forming an alliance with the eight remaining large tribes on the Bloody Planet.

…

Carter tribe station.

In the spacious hall, the Carter tribe, the Lixi tribe, and some high-level officials of small and medium-sized tribes who had been coerced gathered together.

"According to the latest intelligence received, the Nika tribe's army has officially set off!"

Chief Carter said with a gloomy expression, "The target, as expected, is exactly the direction of our Carter tribe."

"This Nika tribe is very ambitious. The strong man who was lucky enough to capture the Bone Spur tribe easily captured the Bone Spur tribe without paying any price. In just a few months, they actually set their sights on the Carter tribe again."

Chief Lixi smiled coldly, "Moreover, after knowing that our Lixi tribe and the Carter tribe are in alliance!"

"Yes! I don't know what the chief of the Nika tribe is thinking. He thinks that with the support of foreign tribes, he can unify the entire bloody planet. It is simply a wishful thinking."

A chief of a medium-sized tribe couldn't help but snorted, "As far as I know, even I may not be able to defeat Chief Nika at a level of strength."

The chiefs of the small and medium-sized tribes were about to make some sarcasm when Chief Carter waved his hand.

"Everyone should not be careless. According to the information we have found, although the unknown foreigner is not strong, his average level is not low, and he is proficient in long-range attacks and has great power."

"The most important thing is that the chief of the Bone Spur Tribe and a group of strong men clearly far surpass the Nika Tribe in terms of top combat power. But they were captured by the Nika Tribe instead. This is so weird. It is a huge problem for us. threaten."

"You know, now the chiefs and strong men of the Bone Spur tribe, as well as many strong men from small and medium-sized tribes, have joined the Nika tribe, which has greatly improved the top combat power of the Nika tribe."

Chief Carter said solemnly, "If the Nika tribe really relied on its powerful strength to defeat the strong men of the Bone Thorn Tribe in one fell swoop, it means that even if our tribes form an alliance, we may not be able to match the top combat power of the Nika tribe."

"In addition, the unknown race has a powerful long-range attack ability, which just restrains our Black Tiger Tribe. This battle may not be easy!"

The faces of the senior officials suddenly showed solemnity.

"Chief Carter, can't you find out how the Nika tribe captured the strong men of the Bone Thorn Tribe?"

Chief Lisi couldn't help but ask.

Chief Carter shook his head. "In the Bone Thorn Tribe, the vanguard was completely wiped out, and all the strong men surrendered to the Nika Tribe. No news could be found. In the Kailin Tribe, more than half of the spies sent to investigate the news were killed, and the rest dared to hide."

"The Nika Tribe should have regarded the capture of the strong men of the Bone Thorn Tribe as the biggest secret to prevent, and no relevant news could be found at all."

Chief Lisi nodded, "It seems that this matter is indeed a huge threat to us."

"So, I think for the sake of caution, we should focus on defense, and use the fortifications of our Carter Tribe to defend, and see the situation first."

Chief Carter asked, "Chief Lisi, what do you think?"

"This is safer. Although we have an advantage in manpower, it is better to adopt a defensive strategy when we don't know the opponent's trump card."

Chief Lisi agreed with his idea.

The two chiefs of large tribes reached an agreement, which basically determined the overall direction.

The chiefs and strong men of small and medium-sized tribes had no right to object at all.
