Chapter 1231: Chapter 677: The Speaker Unintentional, The Listener Intentional
Everything Tainalasta ntioned, Gaven not only knew it all, but he even knew the future trends of the war. Initially, abandoning the thriving Thacel, he traveled thousands of kiloters to the Rocklands to mine with the Gnolls and even ventured into the Valley to develop new territories, his short-term goals were all in preparation for this war.
Let’s just say that all the preparations he has made in the past year were to qualify himself to join this war. However, his initial goal was not to beco the main force against the Tukan Army, but to act as a support, clinging to the powerful Koer Kingdom, cheering from the sidelines and taking the opportunity to make a quick buck, which would beco the biggest capital for his rapid rise.
Little did he expect that his action of initiating a large-scale immigration over thousands of miles for the Valley’s better developnt would earn him a fortune, not only giving him his first pot of gold, but also a powerful army of his own. His position in this war could be suitably adjusted now.
What Gaven had not expected was that the Koer Kingdom had such a deep understanding of the situation in the Endless Wilderness thousands of kiloters away. As soon as the Tukan Army embarked on their campaign, they had already reacted and started preparing for war.
According to Gaven’s original estimate, the Koer Kingdom would not react until the Tukan Army had attacked Ser without success and turned to invade the Laiserman Kingdom.
Looking at it now, I have once again underestimated the capabilities of these established kingdoms and their sensitivity to war. King Yasan and his team may not have their own prophets to forewarn them, but they have a vast intelligence network and their own assessnts of the situation.
For any country in Felen, the size of the Tukan Army is too massive. If they can’t use the geographical advantages of Laiserman and Ser to keep them out, it’s very possible that we’ll see an Otherworld version of the Mongol Cavalry invading Europe, wiping out half of the intelligent races of the continent.
As for the descent of the Deities of Felen, do you think the Tukan People don’t have True Gods or their own totems of faith?
When the high echelons engage in standoff strategies, what decides the outco of the ga is actually the war below.
Like when Lady Strategy ascended to godhood, she launched her fatal blow leveraging the situation of the Conqueror Army’s victory over the Monster Army.
In other words, the war on the ground will, in turn, affect the landscape of godhood.
Gaven seed as astonished as the first ti he heard this news, saying, “Does Your Majesty intend to get involved in this war? The Koer Kingdom is over two thousand kiloters away from Laiserman Kingdom, which is on the border of the Felen Continent.”
The Crown Princess looked at Gaven with a smile that was not quite a smile, “As a general and one of the Chosen of Lady Strategy, can’t you see the potential dangers behind this? Whether we need to send troops to expedition is still an unknown, but we must make ample preparations for this matter to avoid being caught off guard. And before we dispatch troops, we must first stabilize the internals, including the King’s Forest. The troubles there aren’t just about the Secret Hunting Sect.”
Facing Tainalasta’s retort, Gaven realized he might have gone too far and said with an awkward smile, “Standing at different heights affords different perspectives. I’m not yet at Your Majesty’s level, naturally, I cannot see that far ahead. What do you need to do, Your Majesty?”
Of course, the Crown Princess didn’t tell Gaven all this for no reason; she certainly had sothing to request.
Tainalasta gave Gaven an approving look, “These newly assembled soldiers, even with further training, won’t be able to match the real Purple Dragon Knights in a short ti. Once they’re on the battlefield, facing the Cavalry from the Endless Wilderness, their casualties will be heavy. The Tower War Chariots and flanking chariot formations of your Conqueror Army are of great value. I hope the general can dispatch craftsn to assist in building Tower War Chariots and flanking chariots, and it would be better if you can send officers to help with training.”
She had seen the power of Tower War Chariots and flanking chariots for herself in the City of Faith; they have a huge advantage in defense battles and are most suited to help those less trained recruits survive the deadliest stages of war.
“Assisting in the making of Tower War Chariots and flanking chariots might be a bit difficult,” Gaven said sowhat helplessly, spreading his hands, “the makers of these chariots are not ordinary craftsn, but a group of Sodalite Treant allies in Mir Forest. They used their innate Wood Shaping Technique and Bend Wood Art to shape them.
“These natural races are known for their stubbornness in nature, as Your Majesty might know. They were willing to help because of my rits in purifying and healing the forest there, using only purified Dark Wood. They won’t even consider using human-felled timber; they would rather not attack you than use it.”
“I see, no wonder your chariots have such strong defenses, far surpassing ordinary chariots,” The Crown Princess felt Gaven’s explanation was not a stretch at all, on the contrary, it was expected. If the natural races didn’t do this, they wouldn’t be fit to be called natural races. Not to ntion those naturally born races, many Druid organizations not of natural races also advocate extre natural protection, such as the Erald Leisure Court in the Vihong Sea, which is a more extre natural conservation organization, often in conflict with loggers in many places.
Tainalasta, seeking an alternative, said: “Could the general sell us the manufacturing blueprints? We will figure out the mass production ourselves.”
