They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 437 No Tactics, No Command, Just Wife
In a strict sense, the reconnaissance battle between Danlei and Xingxiao was a draw.

Since there is no question of assassinating the commander in this contest, the most direct way to win is to destroy the enemy base.

After all, killing 90% of the enemy's remaining forces would take a while. In such a large rainforest, people could hide inside and wage guerrilla warfare for several days without any problem.

In order to obtain intelligence on the Xingxiao base as soon as possible, Dan Lei dispatched a large number of reconnaissance mechs, which fought against Xingxiao's counter-reconnaissance forces for almost half a day.

In conclusion, Dan Lei successfully obtained crucial intelligence. With the black box brought back by Scott's team and the existing intelligence, Dan Lei has analyzed the exact location of the Starscream Base using Immortal One.

Of course, the cost was heavy losses.

As the attacker, Danlei used Wild Wolf mechs in his raids, and no tracked reconnaissance vehicles accompanied him.

The situation is different on Xingxiao's side; their counter-reconnaissance forces are all Grizzly II models.

In a battle between these two mobile suits, the heavily armored and heavily armed Grizzly II has a clear advantage.

The only way for wolves to fight back is through surprise attacks or by making good use of the terrain.

However, due to the presence of the tracked reconnaissance vehicle, Xingxiao's counter-reconnaissance team has an actual reconnaissance range that is greater than that of the Wild Wolf mech.

After the unmanned reconnaissance robots were wiped out, the Wild Wolf mech immediately fell into a passive position.

Fortunately, Danlei was familiar with the terrain and promptly ordered a retreat through the rainforest swamp, thus shaking off the Starscream forces and preventing the exposure of his base's location.

However, after the battle, a reckoning revealed that Dan Lei's group had lost over a hundred people, while Xing Xiao's losses were only half of Dan Lei's.

This is the difference in commander's equipment and scheduling.

Xingxiao can micromanage each squad in real time through the reconnaissance vehicle, and the squad will only lose communication due to interference after entering a certain distance from the Wild Wolf mech.

This would expose Danlei's unit's location to Xingxiao, who would soon be able to mobilize surrounding squads to encircle and annihilate them.

In contrast, even with the support of Immortal One, Dan Lei was unable to precisely control each squad due to the delay in information transmission caused by the distance.

In other words, Dan Lei provided sufficient terrain intelligence, issued the retreat order in a timely manner, and the wolves were indeed good at hiding, which enabled them to achieve a 2:1 kill ratio.

However, when Xingxiao saw that Danlei's troops were not running in the direction where Danlei had landed, she realized that Danlei had a better understanding of the terrain than she did.

Moreover, Xingxiao quickly figured out the key points.

This planet was created by Danlei, and with his troops already on the ground, he naturally knows all the surrounding terrain.

Danlei could also intervene in predicting when it would rain or when an earthquake would occur in this area.

But now it seems that Danlei has no intention of using such underhanded tactics.

Therefore, Xingxiao did not intend to protest anything. As long as Danlei did not cheat by causing an earthquake under his base or a sudden flood on the battlefield that submerged his troops, Xingxiao would pretend not to know.

Xingxiao himself knew that comparing himself to Danlei in tactical command was simply taking advantage of Danlei's youth and lack of experience.

Moreover, even if Dan Lei is familiar with the terrain, Xing Xiao is confident that he can close the intelligence gap through command.

The initial clash between the two sides has already proven this point; there is a huge gap in command capabilities between the two sides.

Meanwhile, in the live stream outside, the chat was already in an uproar.

Because of Dan Lei's lack of professionalism, many military enthusiasts, as rational and objective people, began to criticize him without hesitation, saying that only an idiot would let the Wild Wolf mech and the Grizzly II engage in a war of attrition.

Being the side more familiar with the terrain and suffering a 2:1 casualty ratio is infuriating.

However, for every critic, there is a supporter.

Although Danlei suffered greater losses, they were not crippled. Most importantly, they achieved their tactical objectives.

Judging from the subsequent arrangements, Dan Lei clearly knew the location of Xing Xiao's base and had already sent out missile vehicles to prepare to launch missiles to surprise her.

As for the studio, Jing Yuan showed Dan Lei absolutely no mercy, directly pointing out...
"It is not a wise move to bombard the Starscream base with missiles."

Xingxiao is very professional. He built his base at the foot of a cliff in the mountains, which limits the ballistic trajectories available for missile bombardment of the base.

As long as Xingxiao guards the key nodes with the laser anti-aircraft guns, missiles will not be able to penetrate.

As for collapsing the surrounding mountains and burying the Star Howl base, regardless of whether Dan Lei had enough resources, ordinary rocks clearly couldn't cause enough damage to the Star Howl base to constitute a defeat.

However, Jing Yuan was also cunning; he knew that Xiao Huanlong could synchronize information with Dan Lei.

His reminder made Danlei realize what was going on.

However, Dan Lei did not actually send out the missile vehicle to bomb the Starscream base.

After the previous battles, Dan Lei realized that in terms of military command, Xing Xiao could easily defeat him, and he couldn't even fathom her strategic and tactical thoughts.

If Danlei and Xingxiao are really going head-to-head with micro-management, the best way is to hand over all troop command to Immortal One and let Xingxiao compete with the computer AI in terms of skill.

However, AI definitely can't defeat Xingxiao, and doing so will only make Danlei lose with a little more dignity.

Therefore, Dan Lei had a sudden inspiration and said that he would not compete with Xing Xiao in tactics, but in command.

Danlei is preparing to compete with Xingxiao for the title of "wife of a celebrity".

Don't get me wrong, Dan Lei doesn't have the idea of ​​rushing into Xingxiao's command room right now to win her over, make her blush, and then have her admit defeat.

The so-called "competing for wives" is actually a competition of knowledge.

This legion simulation battle was unfair in every sense from the very beginning.

After obtaining the topographic map and analyzing the surrounding materials, Dan Lei actually had an idea.

The Immortal One's database contains Black Tower's imaginary energy technology data, Ruan Mei's biological experimental data, and Stephen has also added some of his own research.

Geniuses are often irrational. Without his own laboratory, Stephen managed to create a frequency-modulated capture glove that could intuitively manipulate objective sound and light vibrations using everyday materials he could find.

Therefore, after the integration by Immortal One, a set of blueprints for an energy beam tower that could be made using local resources was directly produced.

As mentioned before, this legion simulation war does not restrict the production of military equipment. If there is no satellite support, you can build one and launch it yourself.

The energy beam tower that Dan Lei had Immortal One build is, strictly speaking, a useless design, with a short range and mediocre power.

But this power is enough to strike an armed landing regiment that lacks a large protective force field, heavy armor, and high firepower support.

So, the viewers watching the live stream stared in disbelief as Dan Lei used his jade tablet to create a blueprint for a tower-shaped building in just over ten minutes, like drawing a magic circle, and then sent it to the troops.

The next second, Dan Lei's armed landing regiment, apart from the reconnaissance troops that had been sent out earlier, all converted to civilian soldiers and began mining the mineral resources in the surrounding mountains.

Xingxiao was also surprised that Danlei remained so calm after confirming the location of his base, not launching an attack for several hours.

However, in her opinion, it's a good thing to remain calm on the battlefield.

If we were to launch an offensive at this point, since we do not know the location of Danlei's base, our troops would inevitably have to spread out to scout, just like they did in front of Danlei.

This gave Dan Lei, who was more familiar with the terrain, the opportunity to defeat them one by one. Therefore, Xing Xiao said, "You, Dan Lei, can remain calm, but I can remain even more calm."

Since the base's location has already been exposed, Xingxiao decided to be ruthless and, like Danlei, began mining the surrounding minerals and collecting materials.

However, Star Howl was used to build defensive fortifications and dig traps.

As long as you defend the area around your base well, you can move most of your troops out of the base and confront Dan Lei head-on.

Xingxiao was confident that, given how things had progressed, he would be the one to win.

However, just as both sides were preparing materials around the Hoho base to begin large-scale infrastructure construction, the outside world was in an uproar again.

Anyone who knows a little about RTS games knows what Danlei is trying to do.

One ever-present strategy in RTS games is the tower-building strategy.

The location of the Star Howl base is clear to Dan Lei. As long as he starts building towers and surrounds the area around the Star Howl base, Star Howl, without heavy weapons to demolish the towers in large numbers, will eventually be overwhelmed by the endless defensive towers.

The key point is that this defensive tower was designed by Dan Lei on the spot, and only Dan Lei has it, while Xing Xiao does not, which directly caused controversy.

Many people on the internet, guided by Huanlong and Guiji, started stirring up trouble, saying that Danlei's victory was not honorable, and that this battle was about legion tactical command, so what kind of nonsense is it for you to suddenly break through technological limitations and start climbing technology?

However, this momentum didn't pick up at all, because Danlei was drawing blueprints from scratch in front of everyone.

Although this drawing was done too quickly, it feels like it was copied from other drawings.

But what credibility can there be in making baseless guesses without any evidence?

When Jimi noticed that the live stream comments were a bit off, he proactively asked Jing Yuandanlei if what he was doing was against the rules.

Seeing this, Jing Yuan naturally smiled and said...
“Yu Yangjun did not violate the competition rules.”

In this simulated battle, it was agreed beforehand that both commanders could only issue orders using text and image data.

However, the specific content of the command cannot be disclosed as it pertains to the individual's identity.

Therefore, directly imparting wisdom is within the permissible scope.

If you have the ability to make all the soldiers understand their destiny and become destiny walkers with greatly increased combat power just by talking to them, that is the skill of a commander.

It was even permissible for some to know secret formulas and have soldiers collect surrounding materials to make medicines to increase their combat effectiveness.

In principle, any enhancement method is acceptable as long as it can be conveyed through text or images and then carried out by soldiers.

Because the knowledge reserves of both sides are one of the means to win.

As the husband of two geniuses, it's not surprising that Yu Yangjun possesses considerable scientific research capabilities and knows a lot of things that we don't.

However, he was so outstanding in other areas that we all forgot about that.

The same is clearly true for Xingxiao.

If she had realized that Danlei might suddenly break through technological limitations with his troops like a genius, she should have launched a preemptive attack immediately, giving Danlei no time to prepare.

As everyone knows, when you clash with a genius, it's best not to give him any time to prepare.

Otherwise, you'll never know what you'll ultimately face.

Jingyuan's words were accepted by most people in the universe.

What they didn't know was that Xianzhou Luofu had cunningly applied for patents in Dan Lei's name for all the technologies revealed in the blueprints.

Since Dan Lei drew the blueprints in front of everyone in the live broadcast room, Interstellar Peace Company and Boshi Society had no reason to refuse the patent application.

Moreover, Danlei is not someone without power or influence, so the relevant patent applications were quickly approved, just waiting for those clever people to copy Danlei's technology so that he could impose hefty fines.

Of course, Danlei's actions also turned the subsequent simulation battles into a waste of time.

Due to a misjudgment, by the time Danlei's first batch of defensive towers were built, it was too late for Xingxiao to react.

Danlei's defensive towers can be easily equipped with a reconnaissance robot, which functions as a watchtower. If Xingxiao's mechs dare to fire, missiles will slam into them the next second.

Given the height of the defensive towers, it would be impossible for those high-energy laser weapons designed to target satellites to attack from behind thick bunkers.

Missiles are inconvenient to use against the Starscream base, but they are very effective at hitting mechs hiding behind weak cover.

As for large-scale troop assaults to destroy towers, under the triple protection of the tower's own firepower, heavy artillery cover, and mech defense forces, even if Star Howl is skilled at micro-managing his troops, he cannot withstand the simplest form of firepower suppression.

Without cover, charging into enemy strongholds without heavy firepower support is futile unless the enemy makes a foolish mistake. If your numbers are less than ten times that of the enemy, don't even think about it.

After several failed attempts, Xingxiao did not deliberately stall for time and readily admitted defeat.

Thus, this legion war came to an end when the second twenty-year system was launched.

Although Danlei's victory was somewhat unfair, he still won.

After leaving his own command room and arriving at Xingxiao's command room, Dan Lei wanted to say something nice to give Xingxiao some face.

As a result, she said in front of the entire universe...

"I'm a man of my word. I'll leave the rest to you."

After saying that, she withdrew her consciousness and let the fragmented clone fall directly into Dan Lei's arms.

It should be noted that Xingxiao is currently using Danbi's body, but she is displaying her own appearance.

Moreover, Danlei knew that once her consciousness faded, the transformation would definitely disappear.

To prevent Danbi's appearance from being seen by the entire universe, Danlei did not hesitate to destroy the live broadcast equipment in the command room.

Therefore, from the outside perspective, Xingxiao, having accepted his loss, closed his eyes and leaned towards Danlei, appearing completely at his mercy.

Dan Lei then abruptly ended the live stream, clearly not wanting what happened next to be known.

This directly led to the live stream chat being filled with ellipses followed by comments like "Another one," and "Looks like Little Xingxiao is about to be born."

Then, with a serious expression, Jimi announced that there would be no post-match interviews with the contestants.

At this point, it goes without saying what the headline on the Interstellar Peace Network was.

Although terms like "Danlei X Xingxiao" are banned outright by the Interstellar Peace Network.

However, in various online forums and groups, people are already discussing what poses Dan Lei will put Xingxiao in and what tricks he will pull.

Anyway, this is just a clone, so Danlei can do whatever he wants with it.

Then, Dan Lei's harem was blessed with another member, and the Great Monarch of Annihilation, Xing Xiao, officially joined the harem of the Immortal Dragon Lord.
