Chapter 1732 - 1732 The situation on the battlefield (1)
1732 The situation on the battlefield (1)
Victory and defeat were unpredictable on the battlefield. The torobo people had come with an aggressive momentum and thought that they could deal a heavy blow to the invading cultivators, but in the end, they were completely annihilated!
Hundreds of battleships and nearly a million torobo soldiers had fallen into the enemy’s hands.
After the news was sent back, a huge wave was set off among the tribesmen.
No one had expected that the cultivators from loucheng city would be so fierce that even such a powerful team couldn’t defeat them!
Was it because the fleet had underestimated the enemy, or was the enemy too cunning that they had suffered such a crushing defeat?
This matter concerned their own interests, so the tribesmen had to pay close attention to it. For a while, there were many different opinions.
The military forces of the teroboros had been in operation for many years. Naturally, they would not only have these few hundred warships. They could organize a fleet of the same size to fight again at any time.
However, the problem was that the fleet they had sent last time had been easily defeated. If they sent another fleet, would they be sending themselves to their deaths in vain?
Fighting a war was all about money. Although the teroboros could be resurrected, they could not afford to lose their fleet.
The cost of these warships was extremely high, and the loss of one would be a heartache, let alone hundreds of them.
How to deal with this invasion had become the most important issue for the tribesmen, and the place that had the most say was naturally the tribesmen Empire’s Council of Elders.
……
The atmosphere in the Senate of the terobo Empire was solemn.
It wasn’t easy to join the Imperial Senate. Apart from status, there was another basic requirement, which was age and knowledge.
After that, with the recommendation of more than three elders and a vote from the public, one would be qualified to become an elder.
The Council of Elders ‘decision would affect all of the tribesmen. Starting wars and invasions, as well as settling down the lower-cla.s.s races, would all be given by the tribesmen after discussion.
The matter they were discussing was naturally related to the invasion of Lou city’s cultivators.
The old monsters who had lived for countless years were arguing in the ring tower conference hall, discussing how to deal with this matter.
The so-called ring tower conference hall was actually a circle of seats that continuously extended upwards. The higher one sat, the more senior one’s qualifications were.
In the center of the ring tower conference hall, an elder roared with righteous indignation, ” “This concerns the dignity and fate of the tribesmen. There can be no compromise.
a single defeat is nothing. The final victory will belong to us, the tribesmen.
My suggestion is that we must completely annihilate the enemy at all costs. Otherwise, they will become a major threat sooner or later!”
Most of the elders of the Imperium held such a view, and the elder who was speaking also expressed what they were thinking.
In the past Wars, terobo had always had the upper hand. When had he ever suffered such a huge loss?
This was his territory, and he couldn’t back down. Otherwise, it would be the beginning of a disaster.
Furthermore, the war had only just begun. If they were to compromise so easily, not only would the elders be unable to tolerate it, but the ordinary tribesmen would also be unable to accept it.
As the news of their defeat spread, more than 90% of the terobo people demanded that the invaders be severely punished. Otherwise, they would never agree to it.
While there were supporters of war, there were naturally also those who opposed war, just that their numbers were few.
Some of the elders suggested that they act cautiously. After all, the cultivators in the loucheng Kingdom had already shown their strength, and they were no match for the fleet.
Instead of blindly consuming them like this, it was better to find an appropriate solution to prevent the war from continuing on their own territory.
Once the cultivators in Lou Cheng had the upper hand, they would be in a very pa.s.sive position if they wanted to negotiate.
After the representatives of the jingoists left, another elder of the Imperium walked to the podium at the center and expressed his opinion in public.
“I believe everyone has already guessed that these cultivators are definitely from the high-level battlefields, not the wilderness battlefields that we have invaded.
So we can’t act on impulse. We have to measure their strength objectively and come up with corresponding countermeasures at the same time. War is the worst way.”
“BOOM!”
After hearing the suggestion of the conservative representative, the jingoists were in an uproar. They almost pointed at the other party and called him a coward.
The representative sent by the director reappeared. The other party tried to argue with reason, his face full of indignation.
“So what if they’re cultivators from a high-level Warzone? they’re still from a barbaric and backward lower race. How can they be compared to the n.o.ble Teruo people?
Our first loss was only because we didn’t understand the other party’s strength. Now that we know the other party’s details, can’t we take corresponding countermeasures?
These barbaric and backward lower races will never be a match for trobo’s technology. The final victory will definitely belong to us!”
As soon as he finished speaking, thunderous applause rang out from all around.
The warmongers ‘att.i.tude was so unyielding because the tribesmen had long developed methods to deal with cultivators.
Within the range of the special energy absorption tower, any cultivator would be turned into a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, at the mercy of the torobo people.
No matter how powerful the invading cultivators were, as long as the energy absorption tower’s power was increased, they would still become the prisoners of the terobo people like before!
The two sides argued non-stop, but in the end, the pro-war party had the upper hand. After the meeting ended, the second wave of fleets also began to a.s.semble.
The forces that were gathered this time could be said to be the strongest formation that the terobo tribe could muster.
Unlike the last time when they had hastily a.s.sembled a mixed fleet, this time, the Teruo had not only sent out a large number of heavy battleships, but also a s.p.a.ce fortress that they would not easily deploy.
The Super energy absorption tower that was specially used to deal with Lou Cheng’s cultivators was also quickly a.s.sembled and sent to the front line of the war.
Mecha troops for close-range combat, military cultivators specially trained by the terobo people through the improvement of their secret cultivator technique, were also in the expedition Camp.
These military cultivators couldn’t be underestimated. Not only did they have the strong physique and strange abilities of cultivators, but they were also equipped with all kinds of specially developed technological weapons that could greatly increase their combat strength.
Compared to ordinary cultivators, these military cultivators of the terobo tribe were undoubtedly stronger in combat.
However, the people of terobo believed in technology and did not place much importance on cultivation and the improvement of personal strength. As such, even in the military, there were less than a million such cultivators.
There were a large number of cultivators among the people, but they were all out of personal interest. Their strength was mixed, and they wouldn’t have a chance to fight unless they were at the end of their rope.
Other than these preparations, the terobo people had also gathered some secret weapons, including special weapons that were still in the process of being tested. Now, they were all thrown onto the battlefield.
Based on their previous experience, the tribesmen decided not to gather their fleet together. Instead, they fanned out and maintained a sufficient distance.
In this way, even if they were ambushed, they could calmly deal with it and counterattack in time.
Operating at full speed, the entire fleet completed all the preparations in less than a week and advanced towards the area where the cultivators were.
……
While the terobo people were fighting with all their might, the cultivators in loucheng had already completed the collection of resources on the commercial planet.
After that, the ten towers advanced side by side, unhurriedly moving towards their second target.
The wars in the starry sky were often longer and more brutal. The lightning-quick tactics used in ground Wars did not work here at all.
For example, between the commercial planet and the second target, the journey would take two months, and this was under the accelerated speed of the war tower.
The reason for this was naturally because there was no s.p.a.ce jump tunnel. Without specific coordinates, the war tower could not teleport randomly to avoid unnecessary danger.
It was for this reason that the tribesmen had enough time to prepare their defenses, and when the tower of war reached their destination, they would be greeted with a tough battle.
Fortunately, the cultivators in loucheng city had already adapted to this mode of war. No matter how well-prepared the enemy was, they would still be attacked by them.
As the City of War advanced, the cultivators of the City of War who were good at camouflage and reconnaissance also began to move. They took various aircraft and headed to the various planets of the terobo people.
War could never be a battle of life and death. It was also full of schemes and intrigues. As long as the goal was achieved, so what if it was an unremarkable method?
