Chapter 365 - 371: The Three Towns Alliance Army Approaches Menacingly
Black Sand Town.
The lord has revived.
After the stationed High Bear Goblins learned of the disastrous defeat of Black Sand Town’s forces, they exchanged glances. Deserted Valley Town had always barely survived under the protection of the Great Lord.
It was one of the weakest small territories within the domain of Sand Spring City. How did it suddenly become so powerful, actually managing to badly defeat the army personally led by the lord?
One must understand.
Though Niru looked down on Deserted Valley Town.
He did not entirely let his guard down.
This time, he mobilized a force of around sixteen hundred!
This force could be considered elite and was akin to using a cow’s knife to kill a chicken.
Why did it result in the total annihilation of the army?
Niru was clearly furious about his disastrous defeat this time, though he timely used the Rebirth Dagger to take his own life, minimizing personal losses, and avoiding the danger of losing Black Sand Town’s top leadership during the revival cycle.
But after this battle.
Black Sand Town’s forces were nearly halved.
The revival of these soldiers will take time, and the expenditure needed to rebuild the forces will be tremendous, almost consuming nearly a year’s revenue from Black Sand Town. Naturally, Niru was extremely angry at this!
The Vice Lord immediately said, "Deserted Valley Town’s strength is far stronger than anticipated. Should we quickly spread this news?"
"Fool! Spread the news? Why spread the news." Niru glared at the Vice Lord and said, "Not only should we not spread the news, but we must also strictly block it, preventing other towns from knowing our situation."
Though Bear Goblins are not too bright.
As a high-level intelligent species, they possess basic intelligence.
The Vice Lord immediately understood Niru’s thought process. If this matter were exposed, wouldn’t other lords know that Black Sand Town’s forces were now in a severely weakened state?
The relationships between Minor Lords are not amicable.
Even among lords of the same race, there is mutual suspicion.
Black Sand Town’s enemies are numerous, and what if someone takes advantage of this opportunity?
Niru continued, "While blocking the news, find a way to spread false information to Stone Furnace Town and Iron Mountain Town, claiming that due to negligence, Black Sand Town has unwittingly lost five hundred soldiers and five members, but has also inflicted some casualties on Deserted Valley Town, which is now recuperating."
The Vice Lord immediately said, "You want to provoke Stone Furnace Town and Iron Mountain Town to attack Deserted Valley Town?"
Niru nodded, "These two towns and Deserted Valley Town have similar strength to ours. Without sufficient attention and preparation, Stone Furnace Town and Iron Mountain Town will fare no better than us if they attack Deserted Valley Town."
The Vice Lord was somewhat puzzled, "But what benefit does this bring us? Although weakening Stone Furnace Town and Iron Mountain Town indeed reduces the pressure from surrounding lords, it will also allow Deserted Valley Town to profit from the war."
Niru said, "We don’t trust each other and each wants to monopolize Deserted Valley Town. Only when they all break their teeth on this tough bone could we unite to destroy Deserted Valley Town. As for the resources Deserted Valley Town might consume? They’ll have to spit them out eventually!"
The Vice Lord nodded repeatedly.
Deserted Valley Town’s estimated military strength is around three to four thousand.
A town like this is very hard to break unless using a full-scale attack.
Stone Furnace Town and Iron Mountain Town will definitely suffer setbacks, and only then could they calm their minds and sit down to negotiate.
Unlike other well-established towns, Deserted Valley Town’s lord is a new, exotic species without a network in the vicinity, making this piece of meat safe to eat without any side effects.
One family couldn’t manage it.
Just have three families go together!
It doesn’t matter who finally claims Deserted Valley Town!
As proved.
Niru’s guess was spot on.
Within two days, Deserted Valley Town faced successive attacks.
First, it was the Gray Dwarves from Stone Furnace Town.
Then, the Wild Boarman from Iron Mountain Town.
Their dispatched forces were similar to those of Black Sand Town, and with similar results: heavy military losses, nearly total annihilation, showing a glimpse of Deserted Valley Town’s formidable strength.
A newly arrived species.
Managed to establish a foothold in such a short time.
Moreover, they possess such strong power and forces.
This species is definitely not simple, its appearance immediately makes it a public enemy.
The Vice Lord came over and said, "The lord sure is formidable. Stone Furnace Town and Iron Mountain Town suffered disastrous defeats. They are now sending envoys to contact us, to discuss jointly attacking Deserted Valley Town."
Niru nodded, "Let the envoy go back and report that as long as both lords are willing to give their all, Black Sand Town will join in attacking Deserted Valley Town."
Soon.
The three Minor Lords reached an agreement.
Deserted Valley Town, along with the new race within, caused them humiliating defeats and increased their survival pressure.
In the Spirit Realm, the strong are respected.
It’s hard to say how powerful Deserted Valley Town might become in the future.
But based solely on its current displayed power, it’s on par with these three towns. If it continues to develop for three or four more years, how terrible would it be? This new race cannot stay; it must be eradicated immediately!
Thus.
The three Minor Lords met.
They swiftly signed the relevant contract.
This time, they planned to form an alliance army to attack Deserted Valley Town.
......
Jiang City.
Hang Yu opened the forum.
He discovered that one of the hottest topics these past two days was the discussion about Deserted Valley Town’s defensive battle. Since the Bear Goblins failed to attack Deserted Valley Town, it has consecutively faced two more assaults.
However.
The results were the same.
Deserted Valley Town crushed its opponents with absolute superiority.
Although the losses for Stone Furnace Town’s Gray Dwarves and Iron Mountain Town’s Wild Boarman were slightly better than Black Sand Town, they gained nothing from the process, instead losing over a thousand soldiers and multiple high-level members.
Three battles, three victories!
The morale of Deserted Valley Town soared.
It has now almost reached an explosive level!
In the first fight against Bear Goblins, aside from Azure Dragon, team members were cautious and didn’t go all out. But by the latter two battles, they had turned into mad dogs, eagerly competing to bite anyone they could.
Equipment and resources are distributed according to Battle Merit.
As long as you kill the enemy, you receive rewards.
Now facing these Minor Lords, Deserted Valley Town not only isn’t afraid, but eagerly welcomes them, viewing them as a group of Distributing Wealth Children.
After all, Deserted Valley Town was the first human territory.
Thus, the battles occurring in Deserted Valley Town are very much focused upon in the real world, and the three triumphant battles that held and defended its territory had a tremendous inspiring effect on the entire human group.
Now, upon opening the forum.
The titles are basically like this.
"Three Victories! Magnificent Azure Dragon!"
"Boss Hang’s power is formidable, his military strategy is first-rate!"
"So exciting! Boss Hang continues to rise, overthrow these natives, and seize their territories!"
"Foreign renowned Spirit Realm researcher comments: Spirit Realm colonization can’t be rushed, Deserted Valley Town’s approach is too aggressive, might attract the Great Lord’s attention, catastrophe is near."
"Doomed, offending multiple lords, Deserted Valley Town can’t stand alone"
...
The more popular someone becomes, the more controversy they attract.
Online opinions on Hang Yu and Deserted Valley Town are both praising and criticizing.
Of course, Hang Yu’s popularity is high, as Huaxia’s most famous civilian expert, and since Deserted Valley Town’s inception to now, it’s been an all-around success, overwhelming praises are naturally the majority.
Regarding other differing viewpoints.
Some expert’s remarks and strategies
Hang Yu disregarded them; he had his own strategy for the Spirit Realm, and from the moment he entered the Earth Dragon Realm, his choices were indeed limited.
The human population is too large.
This matter will be exposed sooner or later.
A large population means a high demand for expansion.
The Great Lord would never tolerate such a species in his territory, thus the conflict with Great Lord Kaliemlo is irreconcilable. Hang Yu must seize as many territories as possible in the shortest time.
Before Sand Spring City reacts.
Firmly establish a foothold in Deserted Valley Town.
The upcoming challenges are truly severe.
Hang Yu is somewhat confident, except for the Great Lord challenge being tough, given the current human foothold in Desert Province, the Minor Lord’s challenge shouldn’t be a problem.
If guessed correctly.
Black Sand Town, Stone Furnace Town, Iron Mountain Town.
These three nearby territories, each strong in their own right, have already sensed danger.
They will soon form an alliance army to attack Deserted Valley Town, and this battle is crucial for Deserted Valley Town, Hang Yu must use these coming days to prepare well.
