It was as if the two tribes had signed some non-aggression treaty and were dividing up the population and land of other tribes in the desert.

However, there is a saying that goes, isn't a non-aggression treaty meant to be torn up?

Now that the expansion of the Renaissance Army in the desert has reached saturation, it is time to try whether this "broken house" in Aru Village can really be kicked down, or whether a bunch of big men can run out of it and beat you up.

"So according to Lord Grass God's plan, we either force them to leave the city and fight us in the field, or we keep surrounding them and make long-term plans."

After telling his plan, Seno looked at the cadres sitting on both sides of the conference table, hoping that they could express some of their own opinions.

The cadres present looked at each other. They were all people who stood out in the desert war during this period, and that was why they had the opportunity to attend the meeting with Seno.

"Comrade Sino, why don't we take the initiative to attack the city?"

Seeing that no one spoke, a cadre sitting at the end asked a question.

He is the most popular person among all of you present. Since this question must be asked, he is undoubtedly the most appropriate person to ask it.

"I have thought about this question before, but in the end, I took into account that our current military strength is limited, and the Tribal Alliance has a much larger population than us, and its mobilization potential is much greater than we have observed."

Seno knocked on the table, then took out some population intelligence about the tribal alliance and passed it on.

"So if we attack the city directly, the tribal alliance will definitely fight us to the death in order to protect themselves. Even if we can achieve the final victory, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties."

You know, street fighting is the most brutal battle. Now the Fusion Army doesn't have many troops to waste in the desert. If there are heavy casualties here, it will be extremely difficult to support the battle in the rainforest later.

"If it's a field battle, we can easily defeat them based on the organization of the tribal alliance's troops. If it's a siege, when we can't break out, people's minds will change and a situation favorable to us may emerge from within their ranks."

During this period of time, the Renaissance Alliance has always maintained the tradition of disarming the enemy but not killing them.

Therefore, if the siege continues, the political offensive of the Renaissance Alliance can be launched and the enemy will eventually be disintegrated.

"We have fought many field battles with them before, and we were able to win most of them. It is basically impossible for all tribal alliances to take the initiative to leave the city to seek a decisive battle, so our main strategic approach is still to besiege the city."

Finally, after several rounds of discussion and after everyone present had fully exchanged opinions, Seno finalized the battle plan for Aru Village.

Of course, in addition to the most important combat issues, Seno and others also discussed many other things.

One point that is worth mentioning is the question of what banner the Renaissance Army will fly under.

Previously, the Renaissance Army had been operating in the desert under the name of the Gilded Brigade to conceal its activities.

But this time it was different. Nashida finally decided to officially raise the banner of the Xumi Renaissance Alliance and the Xumi Renaissance Army in this operation.

Because according to the estimation of time, by the time Nashida issued her anti-rebel manifesto, the desert should have almost surrounded Aru Village.

At that time, we can use Aru Village as bait to lure the Ministry of Education to send troops to rescue.

Then, we can surround and attack his reinforcements halfway through the journey to consume the manpower of the Ministry of Education.

After all, the Council of Churches still controls a large and densely populated area, and several major cities in Xumi are also in the hands of the Council of Churches.

Therefore, based on the subsequent crazy spending of money, the war potential of the Ordinance House will definitely be able to temporarily mobilize a considerable number of troops to confront the Renaissance Alliance through Xumi's large number of messy gilded brigades.

Faced with a possible human wave offensive, even if the Renaissance Army now has more elite troops, it will still be quite difficult to chew this tough bone.

Then the early war of attrition against the House of the Order becomes important, because the House of the Order is different from the Renaissance Alliance. They cannot recruit a large number of soldiers at the grassroots level, and the troops will be reduced as they are consumed.

As long as the manpower of the Order of the Gods is depleted to a certain extent, Nashida can take the initiative to launch a strategic decisive battle and determine the final outcome of the war in one fell swoop.

Chapter 60: The Enemy at the Gate

Swords clashed, combatants clashed, and two small armies were fighting fiercely in the endless desert.

They were dressed similarly, both wearing traditional desert clothing, but the differences in weapons and armor made it easy to distinguish the two.

The better-equipped ones wore more uniform clothing, and they all had a grass-element emblem on their chests. It was obvious that they were the soldiers of the Xumi Revival Army.

Since this side is the Restoration Army, there is no need to say much about the affiliation of the other side. They all belong to the tribal alliance of Aru Village.

Comparing the gap between the two sides, the Fuxing Army obviously has an advantage in the quality of soldiers, is more organized in fighting, and cooperates with each other.

Although the tribal alliance was equally brave, it was basically individual bravery, with no coordination between them, and they all fought in a chaotic manner.

As time passed, people from both sides continued to fall, but in the end, due to the gap in equipment and training, the Tribal Alliance gradually showed signs of decline.

Soon, the commander of the Renaissance Army discovered this and made corresponding deployments.

At his call, a dozen spearmen gathered together, formed a formation, and rushed forward together.

Hearing the shouts and cries coming from the rear, the Fusion Army soldiers who were fighting with the opposing side on the contact line immediately moved to the sides, and a wall of spears rushed out from the gap.

The mercenaries of the tribal alliance obviously did not notice the spear formation gathered behind the crowd. By the time they reacted, it was already too late. They let out a scream and were pierced like a candied haws by the spears.

After tearing a hole in the front line, a small team of Renaissance Army soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding huge swords followed from the rear, rushed into the front line of the tribal alliance, and began to kill indiscriminately.

This is the reserve force of the Restoration Army. As for why it is used here, it seems that they intend to crush the morale of the tribal alliance in one fell swoop.

As expected, the Giant Sword Unit lived up to its reputation as a powerful weapon in the cold weapon era, and soon set off a bloody storm behind the enemy's front lines.

The mercenaries, whose morale was already unstable, finally couldn't hold on after suffering such a blow and began to flee.

When the soldiers of the Renaissance Army saw that the enemy began to collapse, they immediately cheered loudly and began to chase the fleeing remnants of the enemy.

...

The above description not only happens here, but also happens simultaneously in many places in the desert.

Since the Renaissance Army began to move south, the Tribal Alliance naturally would not sit idly by and wait for death, and began to mobilize troops to actively respond.

Although no large-scale battles ultimately took place, small-scale troop contacts between the two sides were common.

Because under the premise of cold weapon combat, whether it is offense or defense, the outpost battle is a very important part before the final decisive battle is launched.

Through constant contact between small-scale forces of both sides, both sides can gradually find out information about each other's combat effectiveness, military strength, and even the direction of the main force.

Therefore, even if the tribal alliance is unwilling to leave the city, they must organize manpower to test the large force of the Restoration Army.

Naturally, Seno was not afraid of this and also sent a large number of troops to respond.

During this period, both sides suffered losses, but overall, due to their advantages in skills, tactics and equipment, even though they did not achieve the incredible exchange ratio seen in some games, the Renaissance Army still achieved a very good damage-to-battle ratio against the Tribal Alliance.

At least the closer they got to Aru Village, the fewer troops the other side sent out, until the enemy was at the gates of the city and the tribal alliance no longer dared to send out a single person.

It seems that they are really scared...

...

Looking from a high place, Seno looked far towards the direction of Aru Village.

Similar to many other tribes in the desert, Aru Village, as the largest population center in the desert, naturally has walls.

And as the original fortress of the Red King civilization, after a large number of people migrated here, they also used it to build an almost indestructible defense system in the desert.

Surrounding the wind-eroded mountain in the middle, the foreign tribes formed an alliance and surrounded the original Aru Village in circles like a pancake, occupying the oasis and building two city walls.

The outer wall is a short rammed earth wall that was built later; the inner wall is a tall stone wall that is a relic of the Red King era.

"There really wasn't a single person left outside the wall."

In Seno's eyes, the Aru Village was no longer as lively as before, and all the people outside the city had retreated into the first city wall.

At the same time, all the farmland outside the city had been abandoned, and in order to organize the Renaissance Army to obtain food, the crops were either harvested early or burned.

"It seems like they plan to guard this wall until they die of old age?"

After a brief observation, Seno did not choose to return the same way, but jumped directly down the mountain, and with lightning he hit the camp of the Renaissance Army at the foot of the mountain.

After he landed on his feet, ignoring the stunned expressions of the people around him, Seno turned and walked towards the big tent in the center of the camp.

Lifting the door curtain and looking inside the tent, he found that Falushan was talking with several officers of the Restoration Army.

"Senior Falusan, are all the things I asked you to prepare ready?"

Sitting next to a few people, Seno began to ask Falushan.

"Oh my, just call me senior."

Noticing Seno's arrival, Falushan stopped the ongoing discussion and responded to Seno.

Ever since Falushan was dug out from the ruins, in addition to repairing various Red King machines, Nashida also put her in charge of the logistics of the Restoration Army.

Anyway, she has a high level of education, is good at math, knows a lot, and deals with equipment every day, so it's not impossible for her to be in charge of logistics.

At least so much time has passed, and apart from acting like a senior every day, Falushan has done a good job.

"A ballista for firing letters, a bunch of flags, and various symbols, that's it, right?"

As she spoke, Falushan took out a document and placed it in front of Seno.

After picking up the document and looking through it, he found that everything he wanted was already prepared. Seno nodded and then gave further instructions.

"Then please arrange these things as soon as possible. This time we want to make the name of Lord Grass God known."

Different from the past, this time the Restoration Army will not only use their real names, but will also use the banner of Little Auspicious Grass King.

In addition, while announcing the respect for the king and the fight against traitors, the statement of Seno's public support for the God of Grass and his separation from the Council of Ecclesiastes should also be disseminated in advance.

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if Nashida issued a manifesto to fight the rebels but the Council of Masters did not send out support troops because they did not know the situation on their side.

After all, the Ministry of Religion doesn't send anyone, so what's the point of him fighting for reinforcements?

Therefore, he had to make a public statement at the beginning, announcing his support for Lord Grass God. In this way, the Ministry of Education would have to send someone.

"Then I'll give the order right away. By the way, how long will it take before we start fighting? I brought that thing here with great difficulty this time."

Just as she was about to leave, Falushan seemed to suddenly remember something, and turned back to ask about Seno, with a hint of anticipation in her expression.

"According to the plan, Aru Village will probably have to sit in silence for a while, but there will still be fighting in the direction of Kawanyi."

After giving an affirmative answer, Seno picked up a map from the table beside him and gestured to Falushan.

"That's good, Senior. I can't wait to let the little cutie go out and move around."

Watching Falusan's departing figure and the bouncing blue twin ponytails, Seno couldn't help feeling speechless.

Because in the entire Teyvat continent, I guess Senior Faluzan is the only one who would call the Semi-Eternal Governing Matrix a "cute"...

Chapter 61: Seeking Help

"Everyone, now the Core of Abundance... no, we should call them the Xumi Renaissance Alliance, is now at the gates of the city."

In a luxuriously decorated house in Aru Village, tribal leaders from the entire Aru Village gathered together after a long absence and began to discuss current countermeasures.

Not long ago, the Fuxing Army outside the city officially raised its true banner while surrounding Aru Village, and at the same time shot a large number of letters of persuasion for surrender into the city with crossbows.

The defenders in the city originally thought that it was just some ordinary letters of persuasion to surrender, because this method was not uncommon in the tribal conquests in the desert, so they did not take it seriously at first.

It was not until a soldier read it out of curiosity that the defenders were shocked and began to take it seriously.

The reason was simple: the contents of these letters were so shocking that after being discovered by the defenders, they were immediately sent to the tribal leaders of each tribe in the tribal alliance.

So they had this meeting today.

"So they are following the orders of the Grass God to come and conquer us?"

Even though they had read the letter in advance, some people still found it hard to believe and expressed their doubts.

Before today, the tribal leaders present only knew that the Renaissance Alliance was a force competing with them for control of the desert, except that they treated other tribes in a more extreme way and were very concerned about people's livelihood.

As a result, today, the other side suddenly told them, I won’t pretend anymore, I am Cao Shen’s man?

You are the Grass God's man. What are you doing in our desert?

"Not only that, they also claimed that the Order of the Rain Forest had also betrayed the Grass God, and they wanted to join the expedition to liberate the oppressed people of all Xumi."

This is what really shocked them. After all, if the Grass God wanted to conquer the desert and unify all of Xumi, then it would make sense.

After all, now that the Red King has fallen, the Grass God has become the only legal representative of Xumi, so it is very reasonable for him to do such a thing.

Well, the worst that could happen to them is they can just pretend to convert. After all, Lord Chi Wang happened a thousand years ago, and they won't be like those fools who treat faith as their livelihood.

But the other side told them that Lord Grass God had declared a rebellion, and they, the Xumi Renaissance Alliance, wanted to respect the (Grass) King and suppress the rebellion. You are just the first one, and the Educational Order Institute will have to bear the consequences next!

I don't understand, but I am shocked.JPG
