“Hence, once we encounter these two forces, our first basic combat strategy is to do our best to let the Great Prince’s faction engage in a tough battle, and before the Second Prince’s faction attacks the city, we should weaken their long-range capabilities as much as possible, aiming at their weak points and avoiding their strengths.”
“The second combat strategy is to remain unchanged in the face of change, with no need for proactive attacks. Just tighten up the horses and soldiers and be prepared to strike at any time.”
“As for the third combat strategy, it is to do everything possible to provoke disputes between the two, weaken their military forces as much as possible, and gain an advantage.”
After finishing his words, Leo Ray stood up from his seat, walked towards the lower end of the table, and continued, “In addition to Cyan Town, including the territory, all other cities have not yet been exposed, which is our current biggest advantage. We should strive to catch them by surprise and attack when they are unprepared.”
Upon hearing Leo Ray’s words, those present, including the battle-hardened Kingdom General Burt and Joshua, nodded thoughtfully.
Remain unchanged in the face of change.
Lord’s arrangement like this is indeed the most appropriate.
One can imagine that once there is any movement in one of our cities, it will definitely be attacked by the other side.
Moreover, our cities are scattered in distribution, with no way to mobilize large-scale armies for rescue in time. If the other party chooses to break through individually, it would be as easy as turning over their hands.
By then, the general situation would be lost.
“Lord, I have one more question.”
With the crisp sound of armor clashing, Burt, fully armed, stepped forward and bowed with his hand on his chest, “If both the Great Prince and the Second Prince aim at Cyan Town as their first target, how should we respond?”
“There is indeed a great possibility.”
Seeing that he was already beside his subordinates, Leo Ray pondered for a moment and nodded, “If I were one of the princes, I would rather eliminate Cyan Town first than deal with this uncertain factor.”
“After all, in the eyes of our two opponents, the cost of eradicating Cyan Town is far less than eliminating each other.”
Walking up to Burt, Leo Ray smiled faintly and continued, “However, Cyan Town is not an easily chewable bone at present.”

Upon saying this, Leo Ray spoke to Rhizoma Drynariae, who was commanding the Cyan Town Defense Army on the other side of the Mind Talk, “Rhizoma Drynariae, please give us an update on the current situation of Cyan Town.”
“Yes, Lord!”
With a clear and crisp male voice, Rhizoma Drynariae began, “Currently, under Lord’s generous investment, the walls of Cyan Town have been reinforced to an epic level, reaching a height of 10 meters, with arrow towers all over.”
“In the outer perimeter of the city, there are also 10-meter wide and 5-meter deep moats, and a large number of abatis that can be deployed at any time.”
“The scale of the defense army has reached 6,000 people, thanks to Lord’s generous treatment. These consist of three regular army brigades and three reserve brigades, all of whom have received systematic crossbow training.”
“In addition, there are five Tier 2 Royal Guard squads directly affiliated to the City Lord Mansion, three Tier 2 squads directly under Lord, two Tier 2 Princess’s Guard squads, and a Trading Conference escort squad, totaling 1,100 Tier 2 elite personnel. Moreover, the over 1,000 mercenaries in the city can be conscripted at any time.”
“As for the stationed powerhouses, besides Mason Banks who has advanced to Tier 4 and the Tier 3 Peak Linda, there are five Tier 3 Defense Army commanders, four Tier 3 commanders of the Princess’s Guard, five Tier 3 commanders directly under Lord, and five Tier 3 female servants of the Princess!”
As he spoke, Rhizoma Drynariae’s voice grew more impassioned, “Lastly, Cyan Town has 120 Magic Cannons, including 70 Tier 2 Magic Cannons equipped with Demon Energy Luminous Crystals and 50 Tier 1 Magic Cannons!”
“Lord’s achievements are indeed impressive. I didn’t expect that a small Cyan Town could develop to such an extent. Compared to the original obscure Cyan Town, it’s like heaven and earth!”
After listening to Rhizoma Drynariae’s introduction, a look of happiness appeared on Burt’s aged face, “With such a luxurious configuration, Cyan Town will not fall easily unless one side’s forces launch a full-scale attack!”After Burt finished speaking, the faces of the other subordinates were also filled with excitement.
As General Burt said, Cyan Town had indeed changed dramatically!
With excitement, Burt narrowed his old eyes, gently stroking his grayish-white short beard, and said pensively, “Lord, what if the enemy’s attack on Cyan Town is just a distraction?”
“Indeed, there is a possibility.”
Joshua, also fully armed, furrowed her brows and agreed, “If so, the enemy’s tactics would be one of two: either besieging the city and assaulting reinforcements to draw out our hidden forces, or feigning an attack eastward while actually attacking westward, with their target being this territory.”
“That’s right, the latter is more likely.”
Signaling the excited subordinates around him to look at him, Leo Ray nodded, “As I said before, my identity as an Otherworldly Lord has not been fully confirmed by the enemy, but the fact that the Otherworldly Lord will vanish if the territory is leveled is already an open secret.”
“We can imagine that when the curtain of war is drawn, the enemy will inevitably dispatch a large number of scouts for a carpet search of the vast area around Cyan Town, and exposing this territory is only a matter of time.”
After nodding at the two kingdom generals in front of him, Leo Ray continued, “So, one of the main battlegrounds of this war will be centered around this territory.”
As he spoke, Leo Ray added some weight to his tone and slowly said, “No, as long as the enemy discovers the existence of the territory, they will launch a mad attack on this place at all costs, making the territory the absolute main battlefield of this war!”
After hearing Leo Ray’s words, the subordinates’ solemn expressions became even more serious, and the excitement on their faces just now disappeared.
It’s imaginable that if hundreds of thousands of enemy forces swarm the territory,
Then, it would be impossible for the territory to defend itself no matter what.
This is under the premise that there are no reinforcements for high-level enemy powerhouses and the mysterious organization members have not appeared.
If these uncertain disadvantageous factors were to interfere, it would be even more disastrous.
“At this point, the core strategy of the war becomes obvious.”
Feeling the increasingly heavy atmosphere around him, Leo Ray calmly said, “That is, while adhering to the first three basic combat principles, each subordinate should try to prevent the enemy from concentrating all their attacks on the territory and initiate a grand, comprehensive counterattack in various sections of the eastern region.”
“And, seize the opportunity when the enemy’s city is empty to directly take down their main base.”
Leo Ray snapped his fingers and continued, “This is our action plan for this time.”
“Lord, in other words, this is using the territory as bait, isn’t it a bit too risky?”
On the other end of the mind talk, Archduke Beren’s worried voice came, “Perhaps, we can find a better way to deal with the attacks of the two massive enemies.”
Hearing Archduke Beren’s concern, the other subordinates in the room and on the other end of the mind talk also echoed their agreement.
After all, Territory was the foundation for the Lord in this world, and doing so would indeed be cause for concern.
“The exposure of the territory is inevitable, as is the enemy’s relentless attack.”
Leo Ray shook his head with a bitter smile and replied, “In the face of this trend, if we act against it, our losses will be even greater. Instead, we should turn the tables and exchange this for a chance of survival.”
After listening to Leo Ray’s words, the subordinates couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
