Tauren Overlord

For a time, even many captains of the second rank were eager to join Lu Heng's team, which somewhat stimulated Lu Heng's decision-making difficulty.

In terms of ability, many girls who want to fight with him, if placed in the Beast Slaying Province, have strength similar to that of the leader of an adventurer group.

These girls also need military achievements because their development prospects are very different from those of the leaders of the adventurer group.

In the Sky Dance Monastery, as long as they work hard and accumulate enough popularity, they may be elected as the next abbess.

For example, the current dean, Helena, was elected as the dean.

In times of war, the fastest way to gain popularity is to achieve more victories in more dangerous places.

So Lu Heng had to choose the best from the best, and he was indeed a little confused for a while.

Finally, he selected two rank-2 combat nuns from among the harpy witches who had signed up enthusiastically.

Lu Heng was too lazy to remember their names, so he just talked about their abilities.

The first harpy witch is "Ice Archer", and her ability can be used in two ways.

The first is to shoot frost arrows, which has roughly the same range as a bow and arrow, but does not require a crossbow to launch.

The second way is to enchant your own or your teammates' weapons so that these weapons also have ice magic.

What Lu Heng values ​​is not the cooling effect of ice magic, but the fact that this magic also has the function of slowing down.

If used as a single unit, this ability is not outstanding, but this deceleration function can be stacked...

This is in line with the collective skill ability of Battle Sister Diana. If you need to deal with a BOSS, this skill will be very powerful.

The biggest feature of Lu Heng's camp is that they can mass-produce artistic skills that were originally exclusive to individuals.

If this kind of superimposed deceleration could be used universally, the potential would be limitless.

The second harpy witch is the "paralyzed archer" who can shoot "arrows that paralyze the rider."

Compared to the Frost Arrow which can only slow people down, this exclusive skill can directly paralyze people, which is very fast, good and economical.

Of course, this one-step skill also has a big weakness, which is that the person being attacked must be in a riding state in order to activate it.

If the opponent is not in a riding position... or stands up quickly before being hit by the arrow, then the "Arrow of Hemiplegia" will no longer be effective.

But as long as the opponent doesn't know how to crack this ability, Lu Heng can use this skill to create miraculous effects.

For example, if an arrow hits a man who is preaching to a woman in a missionary posture, he will become paralyzed on one side of his body and unable to move!

For example, if an arrow is shot at a woman who is riding on top of a man, she can be unable to move.

Of course, this actually has nothing to do with the gender of the person being shot. If they are two gay friends or two lesbian friends...

Or a lot of gay friends and a lot of lesbian friends, that can also work.

If the conditions for triggering hemiplegia were not too special, this would be an invincible skill!

And this ability can also be enchanted for teammates like "Ice Archer", so that this ability can be used in scenarios where archery is not suitable.

I have to say that Sky Dance Monastery is really full of talented people.

Relatively speaking, abandoned places like the Suspension Bridge Monastery have a very low starting point and need to develop well in order to catch up or even surpass others.

However, Lu Heng didn't want Helena to send too many people. After all, this was the front line and they could be besieged by the empire at any time.

So he only brought nine harpy witches with him and determined the marching route with Helena before leaving.

Helena was also very envious of Lu Heng's ability to jump freely through the portal, and raised a question:

"Can you use the portal to take my sisters directly to your camp? That is undoubtedly the safest route."

Helena was right. If we flew from Sky Dance Monastery to Suspension Bridge Monastery, we would most likely pass by the battlefield between the Imperial Army and the Commune rebels.

That would undoubtedly lead to more dangers.

However, Lu Heng was heading for danger:

"It is undoubtedly safer to go directly through the portal, but this safety is very short-lived."

"But with the fall of the human commune, your people and I are the Empire's next target, so why not take advantage of their distraction to weaken them?"

What Lu Heng said was true. Since they had to fight the empire anyway, they might as well give them a surprise blow when they passed by.

Moreover, with his own psychic energy reserves, it would be very difficult to teleport people including nine harpy witches to the Suspension Bridge Monastery.

His real trump card is actually Rosa's psychic crystal and the psychic battery developed based on Chloe's exclusive art.

The trump card among the trump cards is to allow those who have never awakened their own artistic abilities to participate in the industrial system of the "magic industry".

In this case, time is on Lu Heng's side. The longer it drags on, the better. However, his reaction also causes Helena's concern:

"If we fly in a straight line, we will probably pass by the battlefield where the Imperial Army and the Imperial Rebels are fighting."

"If you really encounter the warring parties, how will you respond?"

117. Strategic direction for the next stage

The imperial rebels Helena mentioned were naturally the New Taimenia Fifth Commune struggling between the Beast Suppression Province and the Mountain Fortress Academy.

At this moment, the rebel army composed mainly of old farmers was having a very hard time, because the empire had sent five lords to encircle and suppress them.

As for why Lu Heng was clear about their situation, in addition to his landing point vision that allowed him to conduct advance reconnaissance, he was also a deputy commander of the Beast Suppression Province.

This enabled him to learn from within the empire that the person responsible for destroying the New Taimenia Commune was also a deputy commander.

Lu Heng might not know the specific military deployment of the deputy commander, but the general situation of the major war zones within the province would still be reported to each other.

Relatively speaking, Lu Heng was unsure how much Helena, who was outside the imperial system, knew about the war situation. He asked tentatively:

"I think if left alone, the Empire will be victorious soon, don't you?"

Helena inadvertently lifted up her huge breasts, began to recall the recent intelligence, and gave Lu Heng a direction to attack:

"Based on the intelligence we have obtained, I also believe that the scale of this imperial rebellion is not large, and it should not be difficult for the empire to wipe it out."

"Since they will lose anyway, you might as well consider expanding in the direction of the Imperial Rebels to avoid giving away your territory to the Empire for nothing."

Helena might not hate the "Imperial Rebels", but from the perspective of the Sky Dance Monastery, no matter how good the early warning was, it would be impossible to resist the attack itself.

If Lu Heng annexed the territory of the New Taimenia Commune, it would be equivalent to Lu Heng forming the outer defense layer of the Kongwu Monastery.

This is more reliable than the ratman's warning.

Regarding this third party force that was neither an enemy nor a friend, Lu Heng already had a different strategy from Helena. He could only explain with a smile:

"I have also made some observations about them, and I agree with your assessment of their strengths."

"But I don't think they are imperial rebels. The real imperial rebels should be a group of people who believe they are the orthodox of the empire, but they belong to different factions."

"The group of people in front of us who call themselves the Fifth Commune of New Taimenia do not consider themselves to be imperial people at all, but Taimenia people."

"We can view them as a third force that can be utilized rather than an enemy, and I intend to unite with them if possible."

"Even before we formally form an alliance with them, I plan to help them when I pass by this time."

Lu Heng's words made Helena's beautiful face look a little more confused:

"This is indeed a very imaginative direction of thinking. If it can be realized, it will certainly be a better situation."

"The only problem is that they are also part of the invaders and still occupy our land today."

"Even if we tolerate or even help them survive in our homeland, how do we know if they will become our enemies in the future?"

It has to be said that Helena's suspicion is indeed quite sharp and has quite realistic considerations.

However, Lu Heng did not choose to assist the commune out of sympathy. He smiled at Helena and asked:

"With the strength of our Luna Court, even if we add the New Taminia Commune together, we are still far inferior to the Empire, right?"

Seeing Helena nodded, Lu Heng continued:

"Then what we have to do is very simple. We should try our best to strike the empire itself and avoid striking the enemies of the empire."

"The reason is simple. If we cannot weaken the empire, then we will definitely fail."

"If we can unite with the Tymenians, or any other enemy of the Empire, then we at least have a chance of victory."

"Between certain defeat and a glimmer of hope, I will of course choose hope."

Speaking of this, Lu Heng feels that the current situation is a bit like the Three Kingdoms period in his hometown.

At that time, the power of Cao Wei in the north exceeded the combined power of the two in the south.

Although a joint expedition to the north by the two southern powers might not necessarily help, two weak forces attacking each other would simply be courting death.

Later, the two southern groups were indeed destroyed by the northern group, which they were unable to deal with at all.

Of course, Helena's idea of ​​letting Lu Heng attack the New Taimenia Commune was much more reasonable than Sun Shiwan's backstab on Guan Yu.

After all, Han and Wu were already in an alliance at that time, and if Eastern Wu betrayed the alliance, it would inevitably increase its own alliance costs.

The New Taimenia Commune was not in alliance with Lu Heng and his men, so if Lu Heng really dealt with them, he would not have any moral burden.

However, even though she had no burden, Helena thought for a moment and generally agreed with Lu Heng's point of view.

She also discovered through reconnaissance troops that the Commune was even more poorly equipped and had no air force at all.

Even if she only considered the defense of the Sky Dance Monastery, those old farmers in the commune were not her primary threat.

However, she still had some doubts about the specific object of solidarity:

"It is indeed a good idea to unite with the races conquered by the empire and thus disintegrate the empire."

"I will also try my best to keep pace with you. Unless the people of the commune take the initiative to attack us, we will not fight them first."

"But from what I understand, the Empire has subjugated the Tymenians for 30 years."

"After so many years of rule, there are probably quite a few Taimenians who are loyal to the Empire. How should we distinguish them?"

Lu Heng had already thought about this question, so he could answer it naturally:

"We can divide the Tymenians into three categories."

"The first category, we can call them leaders, they are the ones who lead the kings of the empire to rule the world."

"They are the ones who are truly willing to sacrifice their lives for the Holy Fuguang Empire. They are our real enemies."

"It's hard to tell who this kind of person is just by looking at their face, but we can roughly regard the nobles of the empire as the rulers."

"If we want to avoid accidental killing, we can capture them first and then identify them."

“The second category, we can call them centrists, which are potential allies we can win over.”

"They have neither deep loyalty to the empire nor a strong desire to break away from it. Instead, they will follow whoever wins."

"Although there are many such people among the nobles of Taimenia, it is clear that there are more centrists among the old farmers."

“If we encounter old farmers from Taimenia, we can try to treat them as a labor force that can be united.”

"If they really don't want to join us, we can also let them join the commune. This will also be considered as poaching from the empire."

"The third category, we can regard them as enemies of the Empire lurking within the Empire, that is, our friends."

"They are usually supporters of the old Kingdom of Taimenia or Taimenia civilization. Even without us, they would rebel against the Empire."

"Then the enemy of our enemy may be our friend. These are the people we should strive for first."

"Of course, there are some who are not potential enemies of the empire. For example, the people of the New Taimenia Commune have already clearly raised the banner of rebellion."

"We certainly shouldn't attack these people, but we should unite with them as much as possible. This is the situation that the Empire least wants to see!"

118. Harpy Witch Extermination Plan

Lu Heng said this and did this.

His war strategy was responded to by the Sky Dance Monastery, and this decision was soon reflected on the Empire's front lines.

At the same time, the son of the governor of the Imperial Beast Suppression Province, Gertulle de Polporo, had already made plans to destroy the Sky Dance Monastery.

The young man's facial features are delicate and three-dimensional, and his eyes contain endless pride.

His thick eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, as if challenging the whole world.

Even the scorching midday sun cannot match his pride.
