Witch Fasqi, Ashbringer Mograine!
All losses and gains. That’s it!”
On the second day after the American coalition troops retreated and rested, the Evil Shadow Army held a brief military meeting. First, Jia Xu made a detailed report on the losses and gains on the battlefield. However, magic civilization is too complicated. Jia Xu read it for more than ten times.
Minutes later, I finished reading the post-war list. The Evil Shadow Army Commander was confused and confused when he heard this.
However, the money seized was about 500 million diamond coins, and the army captured was about 3.5 million, and the lowest level was fifth level. Most of the generals heard this clearly...
"You are indeed rich!"
As soon as Jia Xu finished speaking, an inappropriate sigh sounded. The evil shadow generals were startled. The biggest gain this time should be so many high-level troops. Someone actually took the lead in the meeting to express his wealth, but when you know who is there
After sighing, everyone looked at their noses and their minds. The lord is notoriously greedy for money. It would be really strange if he suddenly heard that so much wealth had been captured in this battle and didn't sigh...
Because no one except Xieying cares about money so much, and except for Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Gongsun Yue and a few others, it is estimated that no one can understand Xieying's words...
I don’t know whether Xie Ying feels that he is too rich, or feels that the enemy is too rich, or feels that war is the fastest way to make money, or...
When coming to the United States this time, the change in one's own strength is certain, no one will doubt it, but until now, what Xieying feels most deeply is not the change in strength, but the change in wealth, or in other words, the change in soul...
So far, Evil Shadow has collected about 700 million diamond coins in the United States. What does this mean? It does not mean a lot of money, but it means that 70 NPCs can be resurrected in reality, which is enough to revive all the special-level generals of the Evil Shadow Army.
In reality...
Maybe others think that the Evil Shadow Army is so powerful that seventy is not much, but for Evil Shadow, the meaning is different, because Evil Shadow has been struggling in "**" for many years, but in fact the main goal is to resurrect NPCs.
Now the wish has basically been fulfilled! It is completely impossible to resurrect all the NPCs that are related to oneself into reality. Generally speaking, only those special generals have this treatment, and now...
I can resurrect seventy people, I can resurrect all the special generals who have a deep relationship with me...
That is to say, from now on, Xie Ying is a truly rich man. If he continues to float in the sea of "**", he can take a long-term view and no longer need to always focus on the word "money"!
It boils down to two words! It’s...strategy!
A change in strategy! A change in mentality!
"Cough! Cough! By the way, you just mentioned five mutant beings close to the holy level and six legendary heroes. After the meeting, take the lead in identifying the masters, so that you can better participate in the next battle!"
As if feeling the strange atmosphere of the meeting, Xie Ying coughed several times, changed the subject and explained to Jia Xu, paused and spoke again:
"Let's discuss the next response strategy!"
"It depends on how the lord views and treats the United States!"
As if feeling the change in Xie Ying's mood, Guo Jia smiled happily and relaxedly, and asked aloud. After finishing his words, he thought for a moment before continuing:
"The war has progressed so far, and Theramore City is almost scrapped. If we want to rebuild and develop it again, it would be more cost-effective to grab another giant city. In other words, the only remaining cities in the Kingdom of Lordaeron are the City of Lordaeron and the City of Kuras.
There are two cities.
In this way, if the lord defines the ultimate goal as hegemony, then he must keep the Kingdom of Lordaeron and use the Kingdom of Lordaeron as the base for our forces to colonize the United States, because the United States is one of the world's superpowers no matter what.
, if we take the lead in planting a seed in the United States, it will grow into something big enough to change the future.
Tian Jushu. Because this is a matter of long-term interests, short-term interests may not play a decisive role. But there is a prerequisite, that is, we must give up when things are good, and do not create a situation where we will fight to the death, you will die and I will die.
And if the lord defines the goal as making money, it is very simple. This time he will fight to the death with the American coalition forces. After this battle, almost all the new humans in the United States have died, and there will be no huge profits to be made in a short time! We will directly
After selling the city of Lordaeron and Kuras to the night elves, or in exchange for some benefits, I can directly return to my country, continue to fight in various countries, and continue to make money crazily like my trip to the United States, rob people, and rob troops, so as to quickly
Expand our strength. Anyway, instead of leaving a large amount of strength in the United States, it is better to use this part of strength to make money in other countries, and the strength will grow faster!
But the second point may be very obvious in the early stage, but it may put us in a desperate situation in the later stage, because there is an obvious disadvantage, that is, we will become the target of public criticism. If nothing else, a few more like
Countries like the United States can't bear it now and can't do anything to us. In the future when the borders are opened, they will definitely unite with those countries that have been severely abused by us to retaliate!
Some people may think that by then, our strength will have increased dramatically several times, and it will not matter if a few defeated generals join forces, but don't forget one limitation. It is the absolute population gap. Those are countries, with hundreds of millions of new humans.
Plan, now our development is ahead of the times and we have taken the lead. The power and strength of the new humans are not at the same level as ours. We can suppress the other side, but those new humans cannot be killed. Soon
will grow up again. In the future, new humans will definitely replace the current (NPC) group on the historical stage and become the world's masters. Then there will be big trouble. This is a bit similar to the principle of 'cutting the grass without eradicating the roots, spring breeze will regenerate'
, and we just cannot eradicate it (unless we actually destroy the United States)!
Generally speaking, it’s just these two aspects, it depends on the lord to choose the first point or the second point!"
Guo Jia said a lot in one breath, but many factors were still not clearly pointed out. Whether you can understand it or not depends on your personal thoughts!
First: What is a colony? People like Jia Xu and other players will naturally understand this evil shadow, and there is no need to explain it further.
Second: The so-called quitting when things get better means that this time the United States seems to have been crippled, and its overall strength has dropped by one level. But it is not so broken that it will never recover, and the most direct victims are the United States.
The proportion of players, or those who are the most patriotic and craziest, is not high.
In other words, there must be hatred between the two sides, but it is not to the point where it is completely irreconcilable and truly unrelenting! Because if we really want to be reasonable, the Evil Shadow Army can still make sense. After all, the Evil Shadow Army came to the United States this time. It can only be said that the United States is unlucky.
Being selected, there is no deep hatred or national hatred between the two parties. The important thing is that the Evil Shadow Army's trip to the United States was initially aimed at NPC forces, not player forces. The reason why the United States suffered such heavy losses and created such a situation,
It can only be said that it was caused by the patriotism of American players. The most disastrous Battle of Theramore City was also initiated by the United States. They originally wanted to deceive Evil Shadow's American national weapon, but when they reported revenge, who knew that Evil Shadow had another one?
It is a piece of cake, and its powerful trump card is the skill of instigating rebellion and many historical beauties. The United States steals the chicken but loses the rice, and blames the world and itself. Although it is a normal human psychology, there is nothing good to say!
Third: Why did they directly sell the Kingdom of Lordaeron to the Night Elves and give up the strong alliance they had finally established? The main reason is that although the Night Elves allied with the Shadow on the surface because of Azshara's relationship, in fact they just had a unique vision.
, they believe that the Evil Shadow Army will definitely be able to gain a foothold in the United States (or bet, after all, it is definitely not easy to attract a character like Azshara), so the first investment is not done with good intentions. This can be seen from this purchase and sale of supplies.
Out. And the Night Elves have indeed gained a lot of benefits, taking this opportunity to gain a lot of territory from the Light camp. There is a relationship of interest between the two parties, so the Evil Shadow side naturally doesn’t need to take it too seriously!
Fourth: It is the relationship between NPCs and players. Now it is the stage dominated by NPC forces. Players are too different in strength, so naturally they cannot make much waves. In the future, we will reach the stage dominated by players. Players who are indirectly immortal will develop, and the real population
The larger the base, the stronger the country in "**" will definitely be. This is also an inevitable trend in the future, so the Evil Shadow Army has to take risks to develop in reality... (Many book friends said that there is no need to develop reality at all, and it is unnecessary.
Asking for trouble, now I just briefly mention it and haven’t written it in detail, but it is indispensable)
damn it**
In fact, these last ones were explained to some book friends. I didn’t want to write them because some book friends found them verbose. But if I didn’t write them, many book friends wouldn’t understand them and would dwell on these issues all day long. Their tone became more and more intense and the more and more
It’s getting more and more sharp and irritating. It’s really a headache. Of course, everyone’s human nature and ideas are different. Shadow doesn’t dare to say that what he says must be the truth. He can only write as much as possible to make most book friends agree!
Finally, writing is not something to be taken for granted. A novel is not like writing a diary. It is just what you think about. For example, some inspirations, materials, characters, and outlines are noted. Shadow generally will not forget any characters, unless they are passers-by A or B. Some important supporting roles
You haven't seen the relevant plot for the time being (the most typical ones are Xiao Yifan and Alsace, and book friends are particularly dissatisfied). It's just that there is no need to spend more time writing about it. It's not that you have forgotten it! Since it is a supporting role, it will naturally appear where it should be.
The timing, scene, environment, this is the meaning of the existence of supporting characters. If you write about which supporting character is doing what, how long will it take to write it all day long, then it is the protagonist, not the supporting character...
