Volume 19 Chapter 42 Strange Force Configuration

The player meeting in fulcrum city was held for a whole day. During this period, the troops of our guild were moving south and finally retreated to the Osumi Peninsula area. However, this was not a suitable place for defense, so the team only made temporary garrisons here.

According to the battle plan of our guild, after completing the strategic adjustment of the four main islands of Japan, our guild's troops will gradually evacuate to the small islands outside the Japanese road. Unlike the coastal areas of China, there are a large number of small archipelagos on the outside of Japan. These islands are not connected to the Japanese mainland, but they are very close to each other. If the island chain composed of this series of islands is well utilized, it will not be difficult to form a complete maritime defense line with the maritime power of our guild. Of course, since we have planned to use Matsumoto Masaga Masato for indirect Japanese management, then this island chain will not have the need to occupy. After all, these islands are too close to Japan. If we want to directly control these islands, we will inevitably have frequent conflicts with Japanese players in the future, which is something we do not want to see. Therefore, we have not included in our island chain system in the occupation plan. Of course, even if the island chain is not included in the long-term occupation plan, the basic form still needs to be taken.

According to our plan, we will send people to guard these small islands around Japan. After completing the adjustment of Japanese power, Matsumoto Masaga will lead the Ghost Dragon Association, which has been transformed into the Japanese Defense Force, to start sweeping these islands one by one. This sweeping behavior allows Japanese players to indeed see that the Japanese Defense Forces led by Masaga Masaga has indeed achieved the due effect, so that the leaders of the Japanese guilds have no excuses to say Masaga Masaga. Of course, occupying these islands is only part of the entire plan, and the key to the plan is not these offshore islands, but on Jeju Island in South Korea.

If you open a map of Asia, you will find that this tourist destination in South Korea happens to be between Japan and China. The fleet starting from here can easily intercept the fleet between the two countries. The more important point is that it does not belong to either China or Japan.

Jeju Island is a territory of South Korea, which also means that its gain and loss are not a big deal for us Frost Rose League and Matsumoto Masaki's Ghost Dragon Club. After getting Jeju Island, we can get praise from domestic players, and losing it will not have much impact on our reputation, because it is not our territory at all. Getting it is an unexpected surprise, and there is nothing to be sad about losing it. Because of this characteristic of Jeju Island, Jeju Island will be attacked by the Japanese under the attack of the Ghost Dragon Club led by Masaki Masaki in our strategy.

The bottom occupied, and then South Korea asked us for help, and we snatched it back. Then Matsumoto Masaga fought back and forth again, so that after a few rounds of competition, a confrontation could almost form on the island. However, this confrontation requires consuming materials. So who will provide the materials? Of course, it is Japanese players. Masaga Masaga's Ghost Dragon Society is now the Japanese National Wehrmacht. It requires Japanese players to pay for foreign battles. As long as our battle with the Ghost Dragon Society does not end, those Japanese players will never stop sponsoring the Ghost Dragon Society. This is called raising a thief to be respectful.

In this strategy, we are thieves, while Matsumoto Masaki is an official. If we are completely defeated, then Japanese players will wonder whether it is meaningful to spend so much money to support this official for free. However, if we are not eliminated and are very chaotic, then Masaki Masaki's status will become more and more stable. Because the Japanese realize the seriousness of our thieves, they must rely more on Masaki Masaki. This mutually reinforcing relationship is a model of foreign relations that we hope to reach with the Ghost Dragon in the future.

Once this mutually resilient relationship model is established, we can unscrupulously rush each other to make supplies back and forth with the ghost dragon society in the war. We can constantly capture each other's materials in the name of spoils, and then absorb Japanese resources for our guilds to use, or send some insignificant consumables produced by our guilds to Japan for sale. This exchange model is actually very similar to bilateral trade, but we do not pay both sides, and the materials are flowing in the name of spoils.

This special trading model can save a lot of taxes, and the other hand, it can prevent outsiders from seeing through the relationship between us and the Ghost Dragon Society. As for these three things... it is actually to achieve our original purpose - to absorb Japanese resources.

If the Ghost Dragon Club is really fighting with us, then the money spent on the Ghost Dragon Club in the Japanese Guild will naturally be consumed in the battle, but the question is, will we really fight? Although two-thirds of the Ghost Dragon Club players don’t know the truth, no matter what, Matsumoto Masaga is ours after all, so our Frost Rose Alliance and the Ghost Dragon Club are actually one family. The war between us will definitely not be really fighting, at most it is just a show. So, why do we "consuming" materials in such a playful battle? The answer is naturally all in our hands.

Because of the National Defense Forces transformation agreement, Japanese players have to constantly transfer their money to the Ghost Dragon Society, and the Ghost Dragon Society constantly transfers money to us on the battlefield. This is equivalent to the Japanese paying taxes to us. Except for the need to transfer one hand in the middle to increase some losses, this model has almost no obvious disadvantages. Using this method will not cause Japanese resistance, nor will it consume our excessive energy. Compared to direct occupation, this is actually the most awesome way of occupation.

While all forces on Japan are busy, China is not calm. Although the Russians have been driven out of the border, the tens of millions of garrisons are still quite depressing. What's more, the Russians are not at all aware of this. Not only do they have no intention of evacuating or reducing their garrisons, they are still increasing their troops.

"What the hell do the Russians want to do?" In Aisinger's conference hall, the eagle was almost crowded with brows holding the information.

Matsumoto Masahiro and the others held a meeting for a day, but we were not much better here. Of course, unlike Masahiro and the others were arguing there. We had a one-day meeting because there were too many things to do. Last night, we were discussing the Japanese issue. After finalizing the Japanese plan late at night, we started to make internal adjustments to the guild. Then we got off the line and rested in the early morning. As soon as we went online, we started discussing the Russian invasion. It was almost noon now, and the meeting was not over yet.

The War God said embarrassedly: "Sorry, I really can't determine the strategic intentions of the Russians based on the current information. At first I thought they wanted to continue to counterattack our country, but although they were constantly increasing their troops to the front line, they could increase their cannon fodder troops. The elite troops with higher combat effectiveness were secretly transferred from the front line by them. Doing so significantly reduced the combat effectiveness of the front line garrison. If they really planned to counterattack us, this arrangement was obviously unreasonable."

Hongyue said: "Do you know where the elite troops were transferred?"

The three-dimensional map in the center of the conference hall suddenly enlarged, and then a highlight was displayed. "Here." The War God replied after the highlight appeared.

"What are they going to do in that place?" The location displayed on the map is very strange. The coordinates of this place are 88 degrees east longitude and 50 degrees north latitude. According to the location on the map, it happens to be north of Urumqi, my country, on the Russian side of the Sino-Russia border. This place can be said to be very special because in addition to the Sino-Russia border, it is also connected to two countries. A little eastward is Mongolia, and a little westward is Kazakhstan. It can be said that this location almost includes the borders of the four countries. Although the border lines between Kazakhstan and Mongolia do not intersect, the distance is very close. With the movement ability of mount creatures in the game, you can basically turn around the borders of the four countries in one hour and return to the starting point. At such a close distance, there are many articles to do.

The King of Chuang looked at the map and said, "Hey, the God of War, are you sure the information is fine? This is a large mountainous area. Even if I play navy and are not familiar with ground warfare, I at least know that large corps in this place are absolutely unfolded. What are the Russians planning to concentrate their troops here? Do you play guerrilla warfare with us?"

"Guerrilla warfare is unlikely." Rose said: "This is neither the center of our country nor the center of Russia. It is meaningless to play game warfare. Besides, guerrilla warfare must have a mass base, or the individual combat effectiveness is more outstanding to have hope. Isn't it obvious that the Russians are as uncomfortable as us?"

Su Mei suddenly said, "What if the Russians weren't planning to invade?"

"Although I agree with this inference, there is no direct evidence to prove this." The God of War said helplessly.

"The evidence cannot be found by sitting in the conference room. I think we still have to send additional forces to investigate." Hongyue said.

Ying asked, "What should I do on the front line?"

"For the time being, we will increase our troops and ensure strategic balance." Rose answered Eagle's question, which can be considered as directly supporting Hongyue's idea.

Since Rose and Hongyue both said that this method was feasible, I simply turned around and looked around the other people in the conference hall and asked, "What about everyone's opinions? Should I disband the meeting first and find clues?"

"agree."

"agree."

...

Everyone in the conference hall quickly raised their hands to agree. In the end, we could only helplessly increase troops to the border line according to the method Hongyue said. As for the others, we have to wait until we get detailed information. Modern warfare is about information. If we know nothing about the enemy's purpose, it is not a war but a search for death.

Although everyone disbands the meeting to investigate intelligence, it is still only me who can go there. Unlike everyone else, I am the only free person in this conference hall who has no guild tasks to bear, and my attributes have a relatively high affinity, which means that I have a higher probability of sending tasks than others. People with this attribute are usually most suitable for intelligence investigations, because the number of NPCs in Zero is much higher than that of players. Any player's plan will inevitably be known by some NPCs, and those who can frequently trigger tasks carried by NPCs will be more likely to get the information they need from NPCs, which is also one of the alternative benefits of affinity.

After being driven out of Aisinger by Rose and the others in the name of the capable man Duolou, I directly teleported to a city called Sismin. The area in the game is not very similar to that in reality. Although the terrain and landforms are roughly the same, many mountains added to the map are no longer mainly desert-based terrain structures. Moreover, unlike in reality, the population in the game is relatively low. Of course, this is about the NPC population, and the players are still similar to in reality.

Because there are many people, there are naturally more cities. This Sithmin City is a small city built in a systematic manner, and in reality, the corresponding city of this city cannot be found at all.

Sismin City is located in the northwest of Altay in reality, close to Kazakhstan, and the construction location of this city is quite strange. It is not built on flat ground, but between a bunch of dense mountain peaks. Although the entire Sismin City is less than one tenth of the size of Aisinger, the height difference between the highest point and the lowest point of the city is more than 350 meters. In such a small area, such a terrifying gap, you can imagine what kind of city it is.

As soon as you come out of the teleportation hall of Sismin City, there is a winding staircase in front of the door. Because there is almost no flat ground in the entire Sismin City, you can't see the normal streets in the city at all. The streets here are steps. Except for some sloped pavements between some sections with relatively small drops, basically the roads in the entire city are composed of steps.

Since the city of Sithmin is full of steps, wheeled transport tools are completely scrap here. Whether it is a tycoon, a trolley, a bicycle, or a wheeled bicycle, there is no use of wheeled things here.

The players and NPC in the city seemed surprised by my appearance. Although there is the reason for my popularity, it is more because of my equipment.

Sismin is a mountain city, and the leveling area near it is also on steep hillside cliffs. Here, heavy equipment like me is basically no one wearing it, because the flexibility of these armor-type equipment is generally not high. In addition to artifact-level armor like my Dragon suit, which can completely not affect the movements during use, basically as long as it is armor, it will still limit some physical flexibility. It is better to have the Holy Spirit-level armor, but if it is lower equipment, it will be done. Fighting the hillsides with a can of iron is something that even a fool cannot do.

Because armor-type equipment is not suitable for mountain combat, there are almost no people wearing armor in the entire Sithmin City. The player professions here are basically mainly archers. Archers who can attack without moving without moving are obviously the most suitable professions. Of course, mages can also stand on the spot to attack, but the pitiful physical attributes of mages are troublesome when they need to move. Although archers can stand on the spot to attack, at least they are very flexible and are absolutely unambiguous when they need to move, but once mages need to move, it will be troublesome. Therefore, although there are also mages here, there are not many.

Archers, mages, hunters, assassins, are the main professions here. In addition to the above four popular professions, most popular professions are not very suitable for this kind of place, among which the knight professions are the most. It is hard to imagine what would happen if a knight full of steel armor rides a full armored war horse on a steep hillside of more than 60 degrees. Anyway, I think that's more like suicide. Of course, it's not that all knights are not suitable for this place. Some special cavalry is actually very suitable for this terrain. For example, the guy with Big Cauldron.

Do you still remember the profession of that guy from Big Cauldron? He is a knight, of course he is not a knight riding a white horse, but a wild boar knight. Don’t underestimate the wild boar, people run much faster in the mountains than Marco. At least the wild boar can climb mountains, and once a war horse encounters a hillside with a slope of more than 40 degrees, they basically have to stop eating.

I was looking at the surrounding environment, but I didn't expect a little beauty wearing leather armor to post it up. The reason why she is a little beauty is not because of her age. Of course, her age is definitely not much older, but this is not the reason why I call her a little beauty. I called her a little beauty because of her figure. This little beauty is about 1.5 meters tall, but she is not a dwarf. Although she is short, her figure and structure are perfect, and it feels like she is a miniature model for a normal person.

"May I ask, are you Zi Ri?" the little beauty rushed to me and asked with her head raised.

To be honest, I don’t usually look up to me when I am looking up. After all, my height is here, and even after wearing the Dragon suit, I am definitely less than 1.75 meters tall. This height is basically a relatively short type in the game, but when I stand in front of the little beauty in front of me, I feel like I am a giant.

I nodded slightly to the little beauty's question, and then asked, "Is there anything you have to do?"

"I'm fine." The little beauty's answer almost made me roll directly along the stairs to the city gate.

"Why are you calling me for nothing?"
