Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 161: It is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood
The Blue Falun Mercenary Group, which became the target of the group battle, is located in the Eastern Continent. It is a large-scale, old-fashioned mercenary group with a scale of 10,000 people. The leader is the neutral Berserker Ganges War God, who is also a senior director of the Dark Council of the Resistance Alliance. He was recommended by Qiu Shui Changtian to join the group. The two have a close relationship and support each other. They are the backbone of Qiu Shui Changtian's faction. The Blue Falun under his leadership is also regarded as an important force attached to the Resistance Alliance. Although in order to avoid accumulating too much hostility and becoming the target of the "Holy War of Light", the actions have been restrained in recent months, and the performance is no longer so active. The reputation and influence are far less than our five mercenary groups listed as "Public Enemies of Light", but it is an important chess piece of the Resistance Alliance on the Eastern Continent, and has always played an extremely important role in the balance of power.
As the attacker who took the initiative to provoke the group battle, the Sun Never Sets, also located in the Eastern Continent, is also a large mercenary group with a scale of 10,000 people. It is a frequent visitor to the "Top Ten" and ranked fifth in the last "World Heroes Conference". Its overall strength should be slightly better than that of the Blue Wheel. The leader is the neutral professional wrath swordsman Yamato Spirit, who is good friends with the Vice President of the Light Senate Hua Mantian. Although there are not many Light players among the members, one of the vice leaders is a Light Knight, who is usually very close to the Church of Light and has repeatedly opposed our resistance alliance, either openly or secretly. It has been identified as a hostile force that is seriously inclined towards the Church of Light and cannot be won over.
I would never believe that the Sun Never Sets did not have the support of the Church of Light behind it. With the power of the Sun Never Sets alone, even with the destroyed Huadu, it is not certain that it can destroy the Blue Falun supported by the Resistance Alliance. But if the Church of Light is added, the situation will be different. In this way, six battles will break out at the same time, which will inevitably disperse the support of the Resistance Alliance. What's more troublesome is that the leaders of the Dark Council are tied up and scattered on different continents to guard their respective mercenary groups. They cannot contact each other directly. At this time of the war, they are all intensively preparing for war, or going offline to rest and in the case of the Union of Hearts, it is now my turn and Yun Wuying's turn to be on duty online. Xue Wuxia and Afeng, the two current directors, have just gone offline to rest. They definitely don't have time to gather together to discuss new contingency plans.
However, the fact that the Sun Never Sets wants to attack the Blue Falun should not be taken lightly. After all, they paid a high amount of group battle deposit to launch the war. It should not be that they think they have too much money and bluff and waste it casually to donate it to the Ganges War God. Perhaps this is the real purpose of the Church of Light. To capture the Blue Falun, while attacking the neutral forces attached to our resistance alliance and restoring influence, we can make up for the loss of Hua Mantian in Huadu.
No, we must not let the conspiracy of the Church of Light succeed, especially we must not let Hua Mantian, who has suffered a major setback, revive and get another chance to develop. I didn't care to continue to summon the undead minions, and hurriedly wanted to go offline to find Afeng to discuss how to deal with it, but Bai Yunjian had already contacted me. "Ah Dai, you should have heard the news that the Sun Never Sets is going to launch a group battle against the Blue Falun. It seems that things are getting more and more troublesome. The Supreme Honor is playing a trick on us. You quickly contact Wuxia and Afeng, I will go find Boss Long, and we will discuss countermeasures first. Oh, by the way, remember to explain that before we have negotiated and made a decision, don't connect with other directors to avoid causing more trouble."
Afeng and I live in the same room, so contacting him is of course a piece of cake and can be done in a few minutes by going offline. However, Xue Wuxia's contact information in real life is a secret to us. Only a very limited number of close friends such as Yun Wuying know it, so I can only ask her for help.
In less than ten minutes, the five of us Dragon Directors from the Eastern Continent who were directly involved in the "Holy War of Light" were online and started a conference call.
"In order to better fight against the 'Holy War of Light', reduce losses and increase the chances of winning, the best equipment of the resistance alliance is now concentrated in our five major mercenary groups, and nearly one-third of the directors are concentrated there. It concerns your own vital interests. Facing the sudden attack on the blue Falun, what do you think?" This is Long Xingtianxia's usual style. When encountering problems, he always seeks the opinions of other companions first.
"I think the Church of Light's simultaneous launching of the 'Holy War of Light' against our five major mercenary groups is just a 'smokescreen', the purpose of which is to confuse our vision and disperse the strength of the resistance alliance. The main target of attack should be the Blue Falun Mercenary Group of the God of War of the Ganges, which should imitate our 'Dark Holy War' approach. The purpose should be to win a chance for Hua Mantian, the Vice President of the Senate of Light who just lost the Huadu Mercenary Group, to make a comeback and restore his influence. We must not let the conspiracy of the Church of Light succeed. We must mobilize and organize manpower to do our best to support the Blue Falun. When necessary, even our several major mercenary groups can send out several main members to provide support." I expressed my opinion first. Although the God of War of the Ganges supports Qiu Shui Changtian, in order to kill Hua Mantian's development opportunities, I don't mind helping them defend the meeting hall.
"Perhaps the Church of Light has another more far-reaching consideration, which is to realize the plan of 'peaceful seizure of power' in the Eastern Continent and control a city. The three major mercenary groups, Blue Falun, Flower City, and Never-Setting Sun, are all registered in the Mercenary Union of Tokyo City. They are the three largest forces in Tokyo City. Although Flower City and Never-Setting Sun have the upper hand together, it is almost impossible to realize 'peaceful seizure of power' in Tokyo City with Blue Falun against them. Now that Flower City has been destroyed, our resistance alliance has gained momentum, and Never-Setting Sun is left alone. It is even more difficult to realize it, but if we can take this opportunity to do it in one fell swoop, If we destroy Blue Falun and let Huadu revive, even if we arrange for Blue Falun to go public through backdoor listing, they can only exist as a new mercenary group and will not have much say in city affairs in a short period of time, which will lead to a situation where the Sun Never Sets dominates alone. Originally, our resistance alliance had a weak influence in Tokyo City. We have always relied on Blue Falun to fight against the Sun Never Sets and Huadu. Once Blue Falun's power is no longer as strong as before, it will be difficult to effectively curb the plan of the Light Forces to "peacefully seize power." Xue Wuxia added immediately, and his meaning was very clear, supporting my opinion.
Bai Yunjian expressed a different opinion. "Wuxia and Ah Dai, what you two said is indeed reasonable. The existence of the blue Falun has great significance and cannot be lost. But don't forget that our several major mercenary groups are also facing the threat of the 'Holy War of Light'. Ah Dai, what you said is just a 'smudge' performed by the Church of Light to cover the attack on the blue Falun. It is just your personal guess. There is no evidence to prove this point. Compared with the blue Falun, any of our five major mercenary groups plays an equal or even more important role. For the Church of Light, no matter which of us is destroyed, it means a major victory, which will also have an extremely bad impact on us. They have a wide range of options and do not need to be limited to a certain target. The reason why the Church of Light arranged for the Sun Never Sets to challenge the blue Falun at this time may be to further confuse us, so that we think that their attack focus is on the blue Falun, and go to support it, and relax the protection of their own mercenary group, which gives them more opportunities to take advantage of."
"This..." I was speechless. Indeed, compared to the blue Falun, if the Church of Light captured our Tongxin League or Longteng, or even Jiaoyang and Xingyue, the direct impact would definitely be worse. There are so many targets to choose from, and it is impossible to confirm that the Church of Light will definitely attack the blue Falun. Although the Tongxin League also withstood a "Holy War of Light" without me last time, it was fully supported by the Resistance Alliance, which lent us a lot of good equipment. In addition, the players of the Light did not cooperate well in the first battle, and seemed to be mainly for deterrence, and did not intend to destroy the Tongxin League. This time is different. They have just suffered the humiliation of not being able to defend the Flower City and losing to the Resistance Alliance even though all the elites went to battle. The Supreme Honor must be desperate and must find a way to save face as soon as possible. If they still only razed one or two "Public Enemies of Light" to the ground, they would not be able to achieve a substantial victory and would not be able to offset the impact of the destruction of the Flower City. The resistance alliance has to take care of five places at the same time, especially considering the fact that I am the "world's number one necromancer", Afeng is the owner of the "blood-sucking gun", and the effectiveness of the council hall, so the overall strength is relatively strong. Compared with the other four mercenary groups, they did not lend us too many good equipment. Under this situation, if I leave to support the blue wheel, and the Church of Light happens to choose to concentrate its elite forces to attack the United Alliance, then the situation is not optimistic. Afeng and his men alone may not be able to defend the United Alliance.
"The Church of Light's move is really sinister. Not only did they launch the 'Holy War of Light' against the five major mercenary groups at the same time, but now there is also the challenge of the Blue Falun by the Sun Never Sets, which makes it even more difficult for us to judge and concentrate our forces for defense. In particular, taking advantage of the opportunity that the Flower Capital was destroyed and the 'Holy War of Light' was about to break out, they frequently contacted other forces and mobilized on a large scale, confusing our attention. Moreover, all actions were planned by the top leaders and kept very secret. Even our insiders did not receive any news and were unable to detect their intention to attack the Blue Falun in advance and make arrangements in advance. Now the pattern of the resistance alliance's dispersed defense has been formed. It is difficult to concentrate too much strength to assist the Blue Falun in a hurry. The situation is very unfavorable to them."
Long Xingtianxia talked for a while but still didn't express his attitude. I couldn't help but feel anxious, "So, Boss Long, what do you mean? Should we help Blue Falun or not?" To be honest, I really don't want the Church of Light to successfully capture any large mercenary group and give Hua Mantian a chance to make a comeback.
"To help others, you must first make sure that you will be okay. We ourselves are now facing the threat of the 'Holy War of Light' and may be in danger of destruction. It is really not appropriate to send more people to support Blue Falun. Other directors and members who are not involved in the war can rush to help. Combined with Blue Falun's own strength, I think they should be able to put up a fight and may not necessarily be unable to resist." Before Long Xing Tianxia spoke, Afeng, who had been silent the whole time, expressed his opinion first. He chose the safer option of fully protecting himself and disagreed with my suggestion of allocating some of our strength to support Blue Falun.
"Afeng is right. The key to the problem is that we can't figure out the true main target of the Church of Light. If we go to help Blue Falun and something happens to our own mercenary group, that will also have extremely serious consequences. We might as well wait and see the arrangements of the Church of Light before making a decision in a hurry. Anyway, Blue Falun will need a few hours of preparation time before reporting the list of participants to the Mercenary Union. Let's see how the situation develops." Long Xingtianxia didn't dare to take the risk of guessing the main target of the Church of Light. It seemed that he was inclined to put the overall situation first and ensure that there would be no problems with the mercenary groups participating in the "Holy War of Light".
During this period, the God of War of the Ganges and Qiu Shui Chang Tian had been calling us, probably anxious to discuss countermeasures with us. We could not delay too long, so we reached such a consensus and then connected with them one after another. Sure enough, they also believed that the main target of the Church of Light should be the Blue Falun. In addition to the emergency order issued by Long Xing Tian Xia in the name of the Dark Council to mobilize the masters of the resistance alliance to rush to the Blue Falun to help defend it, because the good equipment was concentrated in our five major mercenary groups, and Tong Xin Meng and Long Teng were the two most powerful mercenary groups in Tian Xia, they also vaguely revealed that they hoped that our two groups could send a few masters to the Blue Falun to participate in the defense, and it would be best if I personally went out to protect the Blue Falun.
Naturally, we gave them a reply according to the result of the discussion. If it can be confirmed that the Church of Light will not choose the United Alliance as the main target, I will immediately rush to the Blue Falun to help them defend. However, it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the false at the moment, so it is really inconvenient to make a definite reply. The God of War of the Ganges can first gather the resistance forces and other forces that come to participate in the "Holy War of Light" and make further decisions based on the development of the situation.
I first summoned more undead minions to help defend the Tongxin League. They were all bone dragons, so that if the Church of Light was sure to attack the blue wheel, we could rush over to support them as soon as possible to avoid delays. However, a few hours later, the player corps of the Church of Light who were carrying out the "Holy War of Light" had begun to arrive one after another, reorganized their formations, and stationed outside the Tongxin League, looking like they were ready to go to war. We couldn't get too close before the war started, and the enemy had a large number of people, so we couldn't tell whether they were elite players of the Church of Light, which made us even more uncertain. Longteng and Zhongtian were also facing the same situation. There were a large number of players from the Light who were participating in the "Holy War of Light" arriving continuously. It seemed that no matter whether the Church of Light really intended to attack us, at least they had done enough to create a scene. Not long after, there was another tip-off that a suspected Light player of Supreme Honor had been spotted joining the army stationed outside our Tongxin Alliance base. Even if it was really Supreme Honor who appeared here, it did not necessarily mean that he would eventually participate in the attack on our Tongxin Alliance. But faced with such a situation, I really did not have the courage to leave the Tongxin Alliance and rush to the Blue Falun to help them defend.
There was no way to seek external assistance, and we could only rely on our own official members, who did not exceed 10,000, to participate in the war. Facing an enemy that was four times our number, none of the five major mercenary groups dared to send people to support the Blue Falun. Even Qiu Shui Chang Tian, who was on good terms with the God of War of the Ganges, and whose Zhong Tian was actually the weakest among our five major mercenary groups, did not dare to ignore his own safety and take the risk to help his allies. According to the group battle mode, both sides must report the list of participants in advance, and no temporary additions or changes are allowed. Each player can only participate in the battle of one side. It is impossible to sign up for the Blue Falun, but then run to the Tongxin League to fight the enemy, and rush back and forth during the battle. We cannot grasp the exact target that the Church of Light is going to attack, so we can only choose to stick to our own mercenary group and first ensure victory in the counterattack against the "Holy War of Light". Anyway, the Blue Falun can seek external assistance, and even if it encounters an attack by the main force of the Church of Light, it may not necessarily lose this group battle.
Five "Holy Wars of Light" and one group battle broke out at the same time. The Church of Light was indeed using deception, using different tactics for different targets. As for the Tongxin League, they surrounded us but did not attack, and set up a defensive formation to confront us, as if they had no intention of starting a war at all; although Longteng was also attacked fiercely, the attackers took steady steps, mainly destroying the buildings in the base, and it seemed that they had no intention of completely destroying it; and the situation of Zhongtian, which was weaker, was more dangerous. At the beginning, they focused on attacking one point, as if they wanted to break through the defense, kill a passage directly to the meeting hall, and directly launch an attack and defense battle in the meeting hall that was related to their survival; as for the Blue Falun, they encountered a similar treatment as Zhongtian. According to the situation of the attackers, they would also launch an attack and defense battle in the meeting hall, and the situation was very similar to the Battle of Huadu. Both sides invested 30,000 players in the base, and launched a decisive battle with equal numbers, but the attack and defense sides were swapped, the resistance alliance was the main defender, and the Church of Light took the lead in attacking.
