Of course, this War Lord didn't understand that Chen Yu had given a large amount of resources to his War Lords as soon as the level cap was lifted, allowing them to instantly level up to twenty.
Earlier, when he saw that the Novice Area was near his territory, this War Lord felt a surge of secret delight.
He thought he would be able to plunder a large amount of resources from the Novice Area this time.
Now...
A large amount of resources had indeed arrived, but in the form of an army besieging his city.
Chen Yu had plenty of soul crystals.
When facing war, he didn't know what moderation was. He immediately cultivated his four War Lords, sending them to face the War Lords of the upcoming high-level areas.
His goal was never to repel them.
But to counterattack.
To conquer more territories and subdue more enemies.
To build more Dungeons.
And now, this was the first battle against high-level lords.
This army of 50,000 soldiers was just an appetizer.
Behind them, Li Siya, Zhang Tianle, and Bai Yunkong were still frantically churning out troops, disregarding the population limit. The War Mills were operating at full capacity, with soldiers appearing one after another.
After assembling a 10,000-man unit, they dispatched it to the front lines again, joining the battle.
This was destined to be a costly battle.
Because the battle line was too long, it would take a long time to travel, meaning their side would consume more resources than the enemy to capture the opposing castle.
However...
Before attacking the castle, this army would first capture the surrounding towns and villages, then establish temporary strongholds, build War Fortresses, and advance step by step.
To make this battle easier, Chen Yu specifically crafted a large number of blue-quality or higher equipment for the Golden Holy Lion troops and other powerful Trolls and Feather Clan members, greatly enhancing their combat effectiveness.
Anyway, these pieces of equipment were all in the equipment slot. If one died, they could be taken out and given to the next, usable after a simple repair.
Under the massive influx of resources.
Overnight, an army of seventy to eighty thousand had gathered in this War Lord's territory, attacking the villages within his domain.
Village after village fell.
While weakening the enemy's resources, their own War Lords would then occupy these villages, increasing their own population limit and resource acquisition.
At the same time, these villages could also build lower-tier War Mills. Although the speed of troop deployment was far slower than that of castles, they were still training, able to timely replenish losses of front-line soldiers.
Facing such a strong offensive, this War Lord found it difficult to organize resistance.
He could only frantically @ alliance higher-ups in the group chat:
“Save me, save me, save me...”
“My five villages have already been occupied, and my defensive towers have been almost demolished by these guys. Hurry up and come! If you don't come soon, their next step will be to attack my castle...”
“Damn it, the other side must be crazy. I estimated that they actually sent out an army of 100,000...”
Looking at this War Lord's message.
Several high-level members of the alliance group also felt their scalps tingle.
An army of 100,000?
To be honest, it wasn't that they couldn't gather an army of 100,000. Which War Lord at this level didn't have over 10,000 troops in their hands?
If they pulled ten people from the alliance, they could have an army of over 100,000.
But the problem was...
These troops needed to defend various regional passes to avoid being backdoored. How could they all be sent out to launch an expedition?
Otherwise, when they went to raid, they wouldn't each send only a few hundred or a thousand, eventually forming a mixed army.
In the later stages of the area, all acts of sieging cities and conquering territories were essentially like this.
War Lords in an alliance would each contribute a portion of their troops, forming a mixed army, and then launch a general attack on a certain territory.
This was the most reasonable choice for long-term combat.
Otherwise, relying solely on the strength of one War Lord, unless there was an overwhelming advantage, it would be difficult to defeat the target in one go.
Ultimately, they would instead be backdoored because the battle line was stretched too thin...
It was also due to these various reasons that when they heard this War Lord say that the other side had sent a full 100,000-strong army to attack his territory, the people in the alliance were so shocked.
“What did you provoke when you went raiding? Didn't I tell you not to go to areas controlled by those top legacy factions?”
A high-level manager in the Crazy Dragon Alliance said discontentedly.
In his opinion, they must have provoked an existence similar to the Angel Sanctuary, which led to such consequences.
However...
The War Lords in the alliance who went raiding felt quite innocent, believing that they hadn't provoked anyone, and hadn't even attacked any lord's territory.
They had only been entangled with a Human Kingdom for a while, and then this happened.
This made them feel a surge of helplessness...
An army of 100,000!
How many people did the opposing alliance have?
Logically speaking, an alliance would need at least thirty to forty people to be able to dispatch such an army!
Or perhaps...
The other side only had fewer than ten War Lords, and they all moved out?
But weren't they afraid of being backdoored?
This alliance was called the Crazy Dragon Alliance. It wasn't a major alliance, and although the family power behind it was quite good, it was still far inferior to the Angel Sanctuary.
Their most famous troop type was said to be the Crazy Dragon, the strongest dragon troop type below the Five-Color Dragons.
Although far inferior to orthodox Five-Color Dragons, Angels, and Behemoths, it was still very good in this area.
This made them wonder again...
What was the origin of this invader? Facing the reputation of the Crazy Dragon, they dared to directly attack their alliance. Was there really an existence like the Angel Sanctuary behind them?
