Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 287: An Adventure Battle
With the support of Long Xingtianxia, the speaker, many things were much easier to do. He then convened an emergency meeting of the Dark Council in the "Mind Castle" to discuss and vote on the motion submitted by the three giants of the Tongxin League - Afeng, Xue Wuxia and me, to take the opportunity to attack the Huadu Mercenary Group of Hua Mantian, the Vice Senate Speaker of Light. As expected, as soon as Afeng introduced the relevant content of the motion in detail, it was immediately strongly opposed by the representatives of the dark forces in the southern continent, such as the Desert Eagle and Tianxing: On the one hand, they believed that the resistance alliance had already made a resolution to fully implement the "Northern Strategy" plan, but now it had unexpected problems and suddenly turned its guns to the Eastern Continent to stir up trouble, which was a serious deviation from the established goal and was likely to cause unpredictable variables. Especially since the target of attack chosen is a high-ranking and powerful figure like Hua Mantian, the Vice President of the Senate of the Church of Light, it can easily trigger retaliation from the Church of Light at the same level. Although they have now sent the main force into the southern continent, they are currently only attacking some peripheral small and medium-sized forces that are related to or semi-dependent on them, and have not directly attacked the direct forces of the resistance alliance such as the Prideful Sun Mercenary Group. Once our resistance alliance takes the lead in breaking this situation and infringes on the direct interests of the high-level officials of the Senate of Light, it will probably cause a new round of more crazy retaliation from the Church of Light, which will further worsen the situation in the southern continent, making it even more difficult for the local dark forces that are fighting alone and without support from the headquarters to support themselves, and easily accelerating their defeat, which will directly affect the normal progress of the "Northern Strategy" plan.
On the other hand, even if the resistance alliance is ready to make some adjustments to the established strategy, compared with the Eastern Continent, which is currently the calmest and has no direct conflicts of interest, the Southern Continent, which is suffering from the ravages of the main force of the invasion army of the Church of Light and is in dire straits, needs to be supported with practical actions. Even if it is to be attacked, it should give priority to the appropriate targets in the Southern Continent for raids to ease the war situation in the Southern Continent, which is also more conducive to delaying the progress of the Church of Light and delaying the time they control. It is impossible for the Northern Continent to eat meat and the Eastern Continent to drink soup, and just abandon the Southern Continent. This is too unfair, and it seems to be somewhat contrary to the relevant promises made by Speaker Long Xingtianxia when he was trying his best to promote the Dark Council to discuss and pass the "Northern Strategy" plan, saying that the three continents are treated equally and the interests of any continent will never be easily sacrificed. The decision to attack Hua Mantian's Huadu Mercenary Group at this time was obviously made mainly from the perspective of the Eastern Continent. Once the news spread, it would easily hurt the feelings of those local dark forces in the Southern Continent who were still fighting under the increasingly severe white terror, and make them, who already had some disagreements with the "Northern Strategy", feel even more dissatisfied, further triggering and even exacerbating the conflicts and discord within the resistance alliance.
Although some of the words spoken by Tianxing and other Southern Continent directors seemed a bit extreme, they were still reasonable in general. There were sufficient reasons to support their objections, and they were not just unreasonable for their own interests. In fact, choosing to attack Hua Mantian's Huadu Mercenary Group at this time was indeed a bit reluctant, and the consequences were unpredictable. Whether it succeeded or not, it would trigger a series of variables and bring more trouble. If it weren't for the three giants of the Tongxin Alliance who had reasons to attack the Huadu Mercenary Group and punish Hua|Hua|Gong|Zi, they would definitely not have proposed such a motion that might disrupt the entire "World". Huadu itself is nothing, not to mention that it is only a medium-sized mercenary group with a scale of thousands of people. Even if it is a large mercenary group of 10,000 people, we, the Tongxin Alliance, will have a fighting chance and may not be unable to defeat it. The key is that Hua Mantian, the leader, is too sensitive. No matter how hard we try to cover it up, the hostile actions against Huadu will be considered to be related to our resistance alliance - even if it is not us who are involved, it must be instigated and supported by us. The Church of Light is likely to take corresponding actions and send people to support them to protect their vice-chairman, which is also indirectly to maintain the reputation . The reasons that Afeng said are all based on our subjective standpoint. In addition to him and Xue Wuxia, the dark forces in the Eastern Continent benefit the most, not to mention the directors such as Desert Eagle and Tianxing in the Southern Continent who have a tense relationship with us. Even if we have a good relationship with Qingwu Feiyang and Romantic Sakura from the Northern Continent, under normal circumstances, they would not agree that we would make trouble while fully implementing the "Northern Strategy" plan and rashly provoke the Huadu Mercenary Group from the Eastern Continent. As long as these two forces firmly oppose it, it will be difficult for our Tongxin League to pass the proposal. This is also the main reason why Long Xing Tianxia was determined to oppose it and refused to agree at the beginning. If it were not for our Tongxin League using the personal relationship, especially adding some benefits from other aspects as compensation, to offer extremely favorable conditions, and trying hard to persuade Qingwu Feiyang and Romantic Sakura to finally support our resolution, the passage of the proposal to attack the Huadu Mercenary Group of Hua Mantian would have a greater chance of passing, even if the attitude of the three giants of our Tongxin League was determined, Long Xing Tianxia would definitely not be too supportive, and the convening of this emergency meeting would probably be postponed for at least two or three months.
Afeng and Xue Wuxia were fully prepared for the resolute opposition of the Southern Continent Dark Councilors such as Desert Eagle and Tianxing. They had estimated the possible reasons for their opposition in advance, and could respond tit-for-tat and resolve it in a roundabout way. There are definitely many disadvantages to doing this, and it is impossible to cover it up with sophistry. So we should emphasize the reason why we chose to attack Hua Mantian's Huadu Mercenary Group at this time, put aside the interests of the various continents themselves, and explain the significance of doing so from the overall and overall perspective, so as to strengthen our persuasiveness and prove the feasibility of the proposal by making the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. The detailed and conclusive arguments are worth it. The Southern Continent Dark Councilors such as Desert Eagle and Tianxing could not raise particularly strong objections, and could not overturn and deny Afeng's views. Both sides insisted on their own opinions and argued endlessly. At this time, the opinions of the Dark Councilors of other forces became extremely important. Qingwu Feiyang and Long Xingtian could stand up and express their own opinions and support our proposal.
After some discussion and consultation, the three parties of the Tongxin Alliance, the Northern System and the Dragon System had already reached a consensus in advance. The Southern System directors headed by the Desert Eagle seemed to be alone and weak, especially the Qiu Shui Changtian System director who had always been their ally, because this action was carried out in the Eastern Continent. Once Hua Mantian's Huadu Mercenary Group was destroyed, the power of the Yamato Spirit's Sun Never Sets Mercenary Group would also be weakened. This would be good news for Qiu Shui Changtian's Zhongtian Mercenary Group and his ally, the Blue Falun Mercenary Group newly formed by the Ganges God of War, which was developing rapidly. They would be able to gain more benefits from it, at least more advantageous than implementing the "Northern Strategy" plan and destroying a Cathedral of Light in the main city of the Northern Continent. Therefore, although considering the close relationship with the Desert Eagle and other Southern System directors, they did not support our plan to attack the Huadu Mercenary Group, they did not stand up and clearly support the Desert Eagle and their opposition as they did in the past, and chose to remain neutral. Under such circumstances, the situation of the Desert Eagles was undoubtedly worse. Without the relatively strong foreign aid of Qiu Shui Chang Tian, the Southern Dark Council, which had been repeatedly suppressed and divided and whose power had been weakened, was increasingly weak and unable to compete with the combined forces of the Tongxin Alliance, the Northern and the Dragon. Adhering to the principle of democratic centralism that the minority obeys the majority, the Dark Council finally passed the resolution to attack Hua Man Tian's Huadu Mercenary Group as the next action, and immediately took action and implemented it. In the absence of more powerful objections and the difficulty in planning a more targeted and favorable action plan, the Desert Eagles could not get support even if they protested to the Dark Elders Group composed of dark NPCs. This was the main reason why we tried our best to get close to Long Xing Tian Xia, help consolidate his position, and win his support. Unless our action fails or causes extremely serious consequences, causing the entire resistance alliance to fall into a great crisis, they will be able to impeach Long Xingtianxia, the speaker, and the three giants of our Tongxin Alliance who jointly proposed this motion, and benefit from it.
The Dark Council passed a resolution to attack Huadu Mercenary Group of Hua Mantian. This only achieved our initial goal. We need to discuss and plan an effective action plan as soon as possible to successfully achieve our goal of destroying Huadu. Although Huadu is only a medium-sized mercenary group with a scale of 1,000 people, its strength should not be underestimated. It is far beyond the reach of ordinary medium-sized mercenary groups. After all, it was redeveloped from a large mercenary group with a scale of 10,000 people. Because the original Huadu had just been destroyed, it received the Blue Falun resident site given by the Church of Light as compensation, which did not cause too many original members to disperse and leave. Most of the players temporarily attached to Huadu as peripheral organizations. The official Huadu members are all the strongest masters. In terms of the number of master players, it is definitely not inferior to other large mercenary groups. Especially the construction of infrastructure in the station. With relevant experience in developing large mercenary groups, the layout of the entire mercenary group station is more reasonable. Probably to guard against the re-attack of our resistance alliance, various fortifications are also set up quite complete and in place, and the development funds are quite abundant. Coupled with the key support of the Church of Light, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the strongest medium-sized mercenary group of 1,000 people in "Tianxia". Once a war breaks out, regardless of whether it will do its best or not, the Church of Light will definitely dispatch some personnel to support it. In addition, the Yamato spirit of the Sun Never Sets Mercenary Group, which has always been helping each other with Huadu and is the "World's No. 1 Angry Swordsman", will definitely not stand idly by. Our attack is likely to encounter unprecedented fierce resistance. If we take it lightly, we may end up losing more than we gain, and it will be our resistance alliance that will suffer a great loss.
A formal resolution had been made, and the Dark Council promised to give more support to the local dark forces in the southern continent in the future struggle against the invasion of the main army of the Church of Light. Desert Eagle and Tianxing had no choice but to keep their own opinions and obey the whole. They joined together in the discussion of specific strategies and tactics for attacking Huadu. Since opposition was ineffective, it was the most correct approach to take the opportunity to gain more practical benefits for their side. Everyone worked together and finally discussed a preliminary action plan. A medium-sized mercenary group of 1,000 people, which had nothing to do with our resistance alliance on the surface, came forward to apply to the Mercenary Guild for a group battle against Huadu. They would not pay too much war deposit, and only selected 1,000 players with the lowest standard to enter the Huadu base to participate in the first-line group battle, and 10,000 players would fight in the periphery of the base. We didn't expect to deceive the Church of Light and completely clear our resistance alliance of any connection with the attack on Huadu. No matter how we disguised ourselves, I'm afraid the Light Council would not believe that we were innocent. The key was to make them confused about whether we were really determined to destroy Huadu, or whether we were using it as a cover to secretly plot something else. As long as they were hesitant, they might not gather all the top players of the Church of Light to support Huadu. Otherwise, if the holders of the artifacts, such as Supreme Honor, Holy Heaven, Real Madrid, Alice, and Olympia, all gathered in the central meeting hall, and with the two top masters, Yamato Spirit and Hua Mantian, who also held artifacts, it would inevitably become a peak showdown between the two forces of the Church of Light and the Resistance Alliance. The two sides had equal numbers, and the other side was not weaker than us at all. In addition, they had the advantage of geographical location. When the most powerful pseudo-artifacts of our top players were almost all lost in the attack on the Cathedral of Light in the northern continent, it could be said that we had no chance of winning at all, and were almost doomed to fail.
The most important thing is to confuse the enemy, to make the Church of Light suspect various situations that may happen, but it is impossible to confirm them specifically. For this reason, in addition to the unknown medium-sized mercenary group of 1,000 people challenging Huadu, our resistance alliance has also planned other strategies to confuse the Church of Light. First, the "Northern Strategy" plan is being implemented smoothly. The purpose of our resistance alliance to destroy the Cathedral of Light in the main city of the northern continent is obvious, and the actions taken are naturally logical. It's just that the momentum is as big as possible, and it is a posture of wanting to end the action in the northern continent as soon as possible to free up hands to deal with other problems. It seems that they want to attack three or four Cathedrals of Light in the northern continent at the same time, even including the White Stone City Cathedral, the branch of the Church of Light in the northern continent. They have also made arrangements with the relevant high-level officials of the neutral alliance in advance, intending to get involved in a cathedral in a main city under their control. The scale is unprecedented. At the same time, a large number of main members of the resistance alliance have poured into the main cities that are targeted, either openly or secretly. Although they quickly went offline and hid after entering the position, as long as they appeared, such a large number of people could not escape the observation of those who were interested, which was enough for the Church of Light to conclude that we were likely to launch an attack on the cathedral in the city where we were located. Regardless of whether our resistance alliance had the ability to destroy several cathedrals of light at the same time . But if we really succeeded, it would greatly accelerate the progress of the "Northern Raiders" and save a lot of time. The Church of Light would definitely not turn a deaf ear to it and ignore it. At least it would try its best to mobilize the local light forces in the northern continent and invest in this defense battle that concerns the future of the Church of Light in the northern continent. It is hoped that the loss of two cathedrals can be minimized, and our resistance alliance can be delayed in the northern continent for a while.
In the Southern Continent, where the Church of Light is heavily armed and trying to expand, our resistance alliance has not let it go either. We have gathered local dark forces and secretly assembled in the area near the Cathedral of Light in several cities, showing the possibility of attacking the cathedral. Such a large-scale movement will certainly not be hidden from the eyes and ears of the Church of Light, and will also make them suspect that our resistance alliance wants to suddenly destroy a Cathedral of Light in the main city of the Southern Continent to strike the main attack of the Church of Light, relieve the excessive pressure on the local dark forces in the Southern Continent, and recover some of the damaged effects. Such consequences are naturally not what the Church of Light wants to see, and it has to allocate manpower to take precautions. These may distract the deployment of the top players of the Church of Light and reduce the chance of them gathering in the Flower City full of flowers. In this way, except for the Western Continent, the headquarters of the Church of Light, things have happened in the other three continents. It depends on how the Senate of Light will deal with it. Anyway, it is just the deployment of personnel, and they will go offline immediately after arriving. They are not prepared to confront the Church of Light head-on, and at most delay some time. There will be no other losses, and the cost is low. It can be treated as a large-scale actual combat exercise to enhance the ability of various teams of the resistance alliance to fight in coordination, to wage a psychological warfare with the Church of Light, and to scare them a little.
The 1,000 players dispatched to participate in the attack on the Huadu garrison are naturally the strongest elites of the resistance alliance, including Long Xing Tianxia, Desert Eagle, me, A Feng and almost all the top masters. They are determined to capture the central meeting hall in the garrison within twelve hours and completely destroy Hua Mantian's Huadu mercenary group. This is an extremely difficult task. Even with our strong strength, it is quite difficult to complete it successfully. However, because the "Northern Strategy" plan is being implemented, there are also wars in the southern continent. The funds of the resistance alliance are greatly lost. In order not to affect the normal progress of related affairs, it is impossible to allocate too much money for the attack on Huadu. In addition, in order to confuse the Church of Light , we cannot invest too much and show a posture of all-out attack. It is easier to attract the full support of the Church of Light. Fortunately, we also carried out similar fierce battles during the climax of the "Holy War of Light" and the disguised "Holy War of Darkness", and have accumulated relevant experience. As long as the Church of Light does not mobilize all its elites to support Huadu, we are not without a chance. Moreover, Afeng, Xue Wuxia and I have already stated to the Dark Council in advance that if we fail to predict the enemy and the battle to attack Huadu fails or we fail to destroy Huadu, the three giants of our Tongxin Alliance will bear the main responsibility as the co-proposers, and try our best to relieve the worries of other dark directors. As for Long Xingtianxia, the Speaker of the Council, we have been supporting him until now, and his efforts cannot be in vain. It is time for him to do something for us, and it should not be too much to bear some related joint liability.
Fortunately, during the implementation of the "Northern Strategy" plan, all members of the resistance alliance were urgently mobilized and organized into teams, ready to attack at any time. There was no need for excessive preparation, and they could start the operation by issuing relevant orders. The actions of the three continents were almost launched at the same time, and soon the planned decoys, deceptions and real combatants were deployed in place according to the instructions. Of course, all members participating in the action were just following specific instructions. Except for the 30 directors of the Dark Council, other players did not know what our specific attack targets were. The 1,000 commando members who were going to attack the Huadu garrison were also notified separately and gathered in batches at different locations. They would not be informed of the real content of the action until before the war to enhance confidentiality and make it more difficult for the Church of Light to guess our true purpose.
Although it was a scattered secret operation, there were unusual movements in the three continents. Almost all the combat troops were mobilized to participate, which inevitably alarmed many forces and triggered a lot of rumors. People speculated about what major action our resistance alliance would launch. The Church of Light also further increased its vigilance, and almost all its members were on standby, paying close attention to the targets we might attack and strengthening its defense as much as possible. Unlike the southern and northern continents, which both aimed to attack the Cathedral of Light in the city, in the eastern continent, an ordinary medium-sized mercenary group of 1,000 people came forward through the mercenary guild to apply for a group battle to the Huadu Mercenary Group of Hua Mantian, the vice president of the Light Senate. It seemed abrupt, but it was a risky move. It was a plan to make a false move and a false move. Let the Light Senate analyze and judge, and see if they will use their brains more and consider the problem as thoroughly as possible, thus generating more possibilities. We don't have much capital, and it's already a good achievement if we can get the resistance alliance to attack Huadu. We can't ask for anything more. If we want to make the arrangement more perfect, it depends on the luck of Afeng and Xue Wuxia, and whether God can fulfill their wish to punish Hua|Hua|Gong|Zi.
Huadu is about to be challenged by other mercenary groups. Hua Mantian will definitely join forces and take charge. His loyal ally, the Sun Never Sets Mercenary Group of Yamato Spirit, will definitely provide full support, but it is unknown how many top masters the Church of Light will arrange to come to help. According to the relevant group battle rules, in addition to the 1,000 people left behind in the garrison, there can be 10,000 reinforcements stationed outside to help intercept the enemies who want to attack the garrison. After learning the news of the challenge, Huadu has begun emergency mobilization. Players are constantly coming in and out and gathering, including black, white, and yellow skin. Only by observing from ambush in the distance, it is impossible to determine whether the ones who have settled in are the main force of the Church of Light. Time is too urgent, and the Church of Light has mobilized many players. Our insiders cannot provide accurate intelligence. We can only know when the real war starts and we are face to face.
Of course, Hua Mantian and the Church of Light could not know what kind of strength the forces that would attack Huadu would have. They only knew the specific total number of the attack of 1,000 people. They could not find the specific records of the participating members in the mercenary guild. They could definitely judge that even if our resistance alliance gathered all its elites, with such a small number of people, attacking them who occupied the advantageous position, it would not have much chance of winning. It all depended on whether they would think we dared to take the risk. In fact, if there were no personal grudges mixed in, and if the three giants of our Tongxin Alliance tried their best to promote it, the resistance alliance would definitely not choose to attack Huadu at this time. We hope that our actions can surprise the expectations of the Senate of Light and induce them to make a wrong judgment, or at least we can't be sure. For this reason, we tried our best to strengthen the effect of the strategy of confusing the enemy, and arranged the 10,000 players who participated in the peripheral battle outside the Huadu garrison in advance, but did not send out the main battle team. They were all players with not too strong strength. If the war really started, they would definitely not be able to withstand the fierce attack of 10,000 peripheral players from Huadu. The 1,000 commandos who actually participated in the attack on the base have not shown up, making it impossible for the Church of Light to observe the strength of the main attack force and judge our real purpose. This approach even gave up the biggest advantage of our necromancers. We did not summon a large group of undead men in advance to help in the battle as we did in the past when attacking the mercenary group's base. If we summoned them before the battle, we would have lost a large number of helpers, making the Church of Light even more confused and unable to determine whether our resistance alliance was ready to attack Huadu with all its strength.
In short, attacking Huadu is a very risky action. Afeng and Xue Wuxia are forced to do something. They don't want to see Huadu promoted to a large mercenary group and let Hua Mantian continue to be proud. They are even mentally prepared to be forced to resign from the position of Dark Director after failure. After more than four years of fighting in Tianxia, our future and Hua Mantian's future will undergo a major turning point in this short day!
