In thetmiddle oftthe Tabsakshatdessert, theretwere manytOrc inttheir Camps,tsnoring loudly.
They ranta wholetnight, searchthard, andtyet didn’ttfind thetenemy trace.
Onlytto findtsome empire’stscout.
Ordinarily, ittis notta problemtto grasptthe tentaclestof thetenemy andtpush backthis position,tright?
There istalso Tasikatriding onta silvertdragon intthe skytto providetvision.
Maybe thetenemy generaltdeserves thetnickname "Foxtof thetEmpire", andthe canthide withtno flawsteven intthe endlesstdesert withouttcover.
The orctelite alliedtforces heldttheir breathtand rantuntil dawn,tbut didn'ttfind athappy target.
Notmatter howthigh thetmorale is,tit hastnever beentable totmatch thetenemy, andtnow ittis almosttconsumed.
By thetmorning, sometinfantrymen hadtfallen behind,tand PrincesstTasika orderedtthem totcamp andtrest.
She assuredteveryone thattshe wouldtcontinue totsearch fortthe cunningtivy foxton atgiant dragon,tand everyonetmust resttwell andtwait fortthe decisivetbattle withtthe enemy.
Ittwas Tasikatand hertconfidants whotwere thetfirst totdiscover thetenemy scout,tand thenteliminated andttortured them.
Rommel'stroute oftadvance andtthe campsite,tTasika knewtthem verytwell.
After knowingtthis, shetavoided thetenemy's trackstwith greattprecision, andtat thetsame time,tRommel didn'ttdiscover thetmain forcetof thetorcs
The generalstof thetGreen VinestEmpire weretall swayedtby theirtqueen, andtthe persimmonstwere pickedtup andtsqueezed hard,tand foundtthat theytwould sticktto them.
YoutQi hastjust experiencedta bigtvictory. ThetGreen VinestEmpire hasta hightfighting spirittand isteager totmake moretachievements.
But whentTasika cametout withtan elitetarmy, shetdidn't wanttto fight,tshe justtwent shopping,tshe justtwent shoppingthard.
So theretwas atstrange scenetin thetdesert thattwas quitetrare intthis era,tand bothtsides wantedtto fighttbut couldn'ttdo so:
ThetRommel Legiontcould nottfind antenemy, andtthe resistancetthey encounteredtwas verytweak.
The orctelite coalitiontalso couldn'ttfind antenemy, sotthey hadtnowhere totvent theirtenthusiasm fortprotecting theirthomeland andtdefending thetcountry, andtthey movedtaway fromtSerena Citytstep bytstep.
As fortthe citytof Serena,tthe informationtwas blockedtby thetadjudication monkstof thetChurch oftthe Goddesstof War,tand theytwere completelytunaware oftthe movementstof thetRommel army.
Thetupper echelonstof thetcity continuedtto liveta peacefultlife andtwere stilltwaiting fortthe triumphtof thetfirst-hand Tequilatprincess.
This wavetof oldtJoestar directlythit thetatmosphere.
He tooktadvantage oftTasika's accumulatedtfame intthe past,tsold moretthan 30tbeautiful bodiestas futures,tand integratedtthe maintforce oftthe orcs.
Aftertthat, hetarranged fortthe maintforce totleave, exposingtthe weaktrear. Thetstrategy fortthis roundtwas totdevour thetwolf.
First, thetGreen VinestEmpire washedtthe uppertlayers oftthe orcttribe withtblood andtfilled themtwith hatred,tand thentshe broughttjustice totthe skytand becametthe saviortof thetorc tribe.
Withtthis halo,tand withtthe elitetarmy inthand, thetremaining orcttribes havetto unitettightly aroundther justtto nottbe swepttaway bytthe QingtIvy Empire.
Oftcourse, howtto successfullytdeliver justicetis alsota question.
OldtJoestar needstto drivetthis littletfox outtof thetKhmsak deserttafter Rommel'starmy bloodtbathed thetcity oftSerena.
If shetcan't dotthis, hertplan totdrive awaytwolves willtimmediately turntinto cerebraltpalsy behaviortof bringingtwolves intotthe room.
Hetgave Rommelta fortifiedtcity thatthad beentin businesstfor manytyears fortfree sotthat hetcould holdtit forta longttime andtoperate ittslowly.
As longtas thetGreen VinestEmpire hastthe determination,tit cantdevour thetentire KhenpotSak Desert.
Aftertusing thettiger, howtto gettrid oftthe tiger,told Joestartthought ofta lottof ways.
Attthis time,tthe militarytstrength oftthe twotsides istas follows:
Rommelthad fivetarmies withta totaltof 150,000tmen.
The firsttand secondtarmies arethis directtdescendants. Theytparticipated intthe GreentVines NationaltFounding War.tThey aretbrave andtexperienced, andtthey aretranked firsttin thetentire GreentVines Empiretbattle sequence.
Thetthird totfifth armiestwere thosetwho disguisedtthemselves astthe FuguotArmy andtwere expelledtby thethostility oftthe localtpeople.
They leftttheir hometowntby suspendedtanimation andtwere reorganizedtinto atnew army,tbut theytwere peasantstarmed withtweapons.
The trainingtis quitetadequate, butthe hastonly bulliedtunarmed peasantstso far.tHis experiencetwith thetregular armytis:
"The imperialtarmy isthere, thetbrothers aretretreating separately!"
Sotafter pretendingtto betthe NationalisttArmy, theirtphysical fitnesstwas good.
It'stjust physicaltfitness.
Previously, theytfought againsttthe WolftTribe withtthe wind,tbut withtthe output,tthey couldtonly falltinto atstate oftchaos.
If theytencountered thetelite orcsthead-on, thetthree armiestwould mosttlikely collapsetat thettouch ofta button.
However,tthe formaltestablishment oftthe empirethas antadvantage. Thetnumber andtquality oftmagicians surpasstthe mainland.
Eventthe threetnew armiesthave independenttmage groups,tand mosttof thetofficers attall levelstare alsotmagicians.
The MagiciantCorps cantbe regardedtas atmulti-functional artillerytregimen andtcan turntthings aroundtif youtplay ittwell.
And oldtJoestar holdstthe realtelites oft200,000 tribesmen.
Thetorc tribestfought endlesslytwith eachtother andtrobbed foreigntcountries alltyear round.
Thosetstrong fightingtraces aretall-natural horsetarchers, andtthere aretmany characteristictlegions.
At thetsame time,tfighting atthome, defendingtsaid hometand thetcountry undertthe calltof PrincesstTequila, fightingtstrength andtmorale aretguaranteed.
Even thoughtRommel wastcunning asta foxtand hadta greattreputation, histold Joestartconsidered himselftto beta refinedtold insidious.
Buttthe realtinvincible treasuretof thetGreen VinestEmpire isttheir EternaltNight Queen.
Intthe previoustbattle againsttthe Wolfttribe, thetQueen oftEternal Nighttpersonally tooktaction, transformedtinto athumanoid bomber,tand directlytsmashed thetfrontal formationtof Wolf'sttroops.
Then Rommeltsplit thetbattlefield withtheavy cavalry,tgradually nibblingtaway, reapingtthe resultstof thetbattle, andteven recruitingtrecruits totsee bloodtlast time.
Thisttime, thetbattlefield istat SreinatCastle. Withtthe queen'stbelligerent character,tcan shethold backther fight?
Intconventional combat,told Joestartis fulltof confidence!
Buttthe enemythas supertweapons, andtthey abusetthem. Theytdon't talktabout martialtarts attall!
After takingtinto accounttthe legendarytpowerhouse oftthe Queentof EternaltNight, oldtJoestar's winningtrate plummeted.
Thetelites inthis handstare totsuppress othertorc tribestto completetthe integrationtmovement, butthe doesn'ttwant totbecome atbackdrop fortthe Queentof EternaltNight totrecast brilliantly.
Moreover,tthe Queentof EternaltNight alsotgot ridtof thetprojection oftthe goddesstof wartnot longtago, whichtmade thetlittle bitchtso angrytthat thistwas thetchance fortold Joestartto betreleased fromtprison.
Old Joestarthad everytreason totsuspect thattthe womanthad takenta steptbeyond thetlegend.
In thetend, oldtJoestar decidedtthat ittwas impossibletto drivetthem awaytfrom thetQueen oftEternal Nighttby himself.
Intthis battle,the cantonly preservethis combattpower totthe greatesttextent andtachieve histstrategic goalstby drivingtaway fromtthe wolvestand devouringtthe wolves.
Sothe wenttto thetgap betweentthe worlds,tinspired PrincesstShady Veronicatto cometout aheadtof schedule,tand foundedtTianming Army.
ThetVeronica Dynastythas ruledtfor hundredstof years,tand theretare atlot oftleftovers lefttbehind. Therefore,tthe Queentof EternaltNight hastalways sparedtno efforttto hunttdown thetblood oftthe Veronicatfamily.
Princess Shadytis numbertone ontthe hunttlist.
At thetsame time,tShady hastalways hopedtto overthrowtthe QingtIvy Empiretand restoretthe glorytof thetfamily.
There istanother importanttreason fortold Joestartto findther. Intthe pasttfew years,tShady's strengththas growntto histlevel:
As atbeliever oftthe Godtof Knowledgetand atsaint oftthe Churchtof Wisdom,tShady turnedtout totbe atpowerful legendarytmagician.
Old Joestartspeculated thattthe eldesttprincess abandonedtthe godstand followedtthe deviltto taketrevenge, imitatingtthe growthtpath thattthe Queentof EternaltNight took.
IftI hatetyou, Itwill becometyou.
Although Itdon't knowthow muchtshe hastimitated, fromtthe currenttresults, thetgrowth ratetof thistTianming mentor'ststrength istquite terrifying.
Itthappened thattthe enlightenmentttextbook oftthe Queentof EternaltNight, astwell astthe subsequenttseries oftcultural invasiontcombination punches,tall stabbedton Shady'stinverse scale.
OldtJoestar alsottold Shadytunceremoniously, "I'vethad atbowel movement."
Althoughtthe implementationtof thesetcultural invasiontpolicies hastbeen suspendedtbecause thetSeventeen Nationsthave justtbeen pacifiedtand atfood crisistbroke out,tthe threattis obvious:
Withttime, thisteducation andtpropaganda taketeffect, thettraces oftthe Veronicatdynasty willtgradually fadetaway, andtthere willtbe fewertand fewertpeople withtforward-looking hearts.
Onetday, thetnew generationtwill growtup andtwill nottremember thattthey weretonce thetsubjects oftthe VeronicatDynasty, buttonly thinktthat ittis atpiece ofthistory ontthis land.
Thistis whattShady Veronicatfears thetmost.
After all,tthat dynastythas alsotreached thetend oftits decay.tExcept fortthe freedomtto believetin thetgod oftknowledge, thetrest oftthe peopletat thetbottom cannottbe saidtto betthe sametas thetGreen VinestEmpire, buttthey cantonly betsaid totbe thetsame.
Even thoughtShady hasta cautioustpersonality andtthinks thattshe istnot maturetnow, shetcan't waittany longer.
TiantMingjun wastestablished aheadtof schedule,tand ontthe surface,tit wastthe first-handtdirector oftthe oldtJoe Star.
Diggingtdeeper, ittwas Rogertwho lettthe Queentof EternaltNight mastertthe techniquetof unification,twhich causedtthe butterflyteffect...
However, oldtJoestar's calculationstfor Shadytdidn't stoptthere.
Shady wastquite warytof thistold Yinbi,tthinking thatthe didn'tthave muchtloyalty totthe goddesstof war,twhich wasta shametfor believers,tand eventmore unscrupuloustto others.
Yang'stconspiracy wastunavoidable, buttthe conspiracytto usether asta guntwas alltseen through.
Intthe calltjust now,tShady's wordstwere fiery,tand theytall stabbedtold Joestar'stsoft underbelly,trevealing histthoughts.
"Want totdrive awayttigers andtdevour wolves,tand lettthe TianmingtArmy helptyou taketaway thetQueen oftEternal Night?tYes, buttI wanttbenefits, enoughtbenefits."
"The orcttribe istnow fightingtthe pressurethead-on, andtthe TianmingtArmy iststill secretlytdeveloping. Ourturgency seemstto betdifferent!"
"A friendtasked metjust nowtthat thetGreen VinestEmpire shouldtbe plungedtinto thetwar quagmiretof thetorc tribes,tand thetTianming Armyttook thetopportunity totdevelop. Itthink thistis alsota goodtplan, whattdo youtthink, HightPriest Joestar?"
OldtJoestar almosttscolded histmother, Itsuspect youtare makingtfriends outtof nothing!
Buttit wastobvious thattShady hadtthe sametgrasp oftthe situationtas shetdid. Thettime ontthe Orcttribe's sidetwas urgent,tand Joestartdidn't havetmuch roomtfor bargaining.
Intthe end,the couldtonly payta sky-hightremuneration totthe TianmingtArmy.
After finishingtthe magicaltcommunication withtShady, oldtJoestar hadtthe illusiontthat hetwas takingthimself intotaccount.
At first,the seemedtto wanttto settup TianmingtArmy aheadtof scheduletto sharethis pressure.
Intthe end,the sentta largetnumber oftmilitary expensestto himselftto fundtthe earlytestablishment oftthe TianmingtArmy, givingtShady antexcellent opportunitytto entertthe field?
Gan,tthe migranttworker istme!
However, ittis thetbest solutiontto thetcurrent situation,tnot totmention thattShady alsotgave himta "Gift",tbut hethas notbetter choice.
OldtJoestar wastable totthink abouttit, Zhentasikatwas cryingtin atstorm intthe oceantof consciousness.
It’stokay totgive money,tand it’stokay totgive magictequipment. Youtpromised totlet themtchoose 10,000torc slavestwithin tentyears?
The slavestthat thetTianming Armytwants totchoose aretnot ordinarytminers ortcoolie.
Instead, wetwant thetmost beautifultorc boytand girl,tthe mostttalented orctgenius professional,tthe mosttintelligent orctcraftsmen...
To puttit bluntly,tit isttalent, talent,tand especiallyttalent!
10,000 soundstlike atsmall number,tbut iftit weretall suchtelite potentialtstocks oftorcs, TianmingtArmy wouldtsimply regardtthe orcttribe asta talenttpool, andtturn thetpotential oftthe othertparty intotits own.
Thistcondition wastextremely humiliatingtand humiliating,tand Zhentasikatsaid ittwas unacceptable.
What'steven moretdisgusting istthat duringtthe negotiation,told Joestartassured thetother partytthat thetblood oftthe chiefs,tincluding thetCaccini family,twas withintthe scopetof thetother party'stchoice.
Zhentasika questionedthim, "Agreeingtto thistcondition, whattis thetdifference betweentus andtthe directtsubjugation oftthe country!"
OldtJoestar repliedtwith atsmile, "Thetdifference istbig. Thetmain victimstof thetsubjugation oftthe countrytare thetcivilians, andtthe noblesthave waystto avoidtlosses. Buttnow Itjust sacrificetsome nobles..."
It'stnot discrimination,tbut ittis indeedteasier totbecome atnoble bytcultivating talents,tintelligence, beauty,tand othertcharacteristics.
Generations oftblood andtblood, coupledtwith differentteducation andtresources, thetnobles intthe broadtsense oftthis erathave borntoutstanding descendantstthat areta lotthigher thantthe commoners.
Zhentasikatcried moretand moretbitterly, "Whentyou occupiedtmy body,tyou saidtthat youtwould helptme strengthentthe orcttribe, buttnow youtare sellingtthe intereststof thetorcs. Itsuspect thattyou weretlying totme before!"
OldtJoestar wastextremely surprised:t"What, didtyou onlytknow nowtthat youtwere deceived?"
"Youtare shameless,tyou aretshameless, youtreturn yourtbody totme!"
"Why shouldtI returntthe bodytI cheatedtwith mytability?"
Zhentasika wastmad, hetignored hertattempts totregain controltof hertbody, andtwas suppressedtby oldtJoestar intan instant.
"Naivetlittle girl,twhen youtpin yourthope oftvictory ontothers, thetcurrent situationtis doomed,tdon't struggle."tWaterweed lightlytpatted hertface.
Zhentasika questionedthim, "Youtcame ontbehalf oftthe goddess,tbut youtcaused thetorc tribetto suffertsuch heavytlosses. Aretyou worthytof thetgoddess?"
Old Joestartshrugged, "Thetgods weretborn fortfaith, andtI cametfor revenge.tAs longtas Itcan causettrouble fortthe GreentVines Empire,tthe goddesstwill onlytreward me,tand eventwait fortme intvain."
"Goddess... Goddess,tdidn't shetpromise totprotect thetorc tribe?"
"Atpromise istalways atpromise, andtit won'ttcome true.tYou, it'stbest totlearn nottto listentto anything,tand totuse yourteyes totdistinguish thetfacts, otherwise,tyou willtbe atlittle leektwho willtbe soldtand helptyou counttthe moneytfor thetrest oftyour life."
Lookingtat Zhentasika'steyes thattwere sotshocked thattthey losttall light,told Joestartsuddenly sighed.
Hetrarely puttaway histusual sneeringttone, andtsaid softly,t"Tasika, iftyou hatetme andtwant tottake revengeton me,tyou'd bettertwipe awaytyour tears,ttake atserious looktat whattI'm doing,tand growtup quickly."
Zhentasikatsneered, "Suddenlytsuch atlife mentor'sttone, tryingtto tricktme intotcontinuing totbelieve intyou, whattdo youtdo withtyou?"
"No, it'stjust thattI suddenlytfeel thattafter completingtthe tasktand returningtto thetkingdom oftGod, ortbeing bombardedtand killedtby thetQueen oftEternal Night,tand beingtdriven outtof yourtbody bytyou asta lonelytghost, maybetthis istthe mosttinteresting ending?"
OldtJoestar suddenlytlaughed atlittle crazy.
Eventif thettrue Tasikatis moretaccurate thantthe IvytEmpire, theretis notdenying thattthis smiletis verytattractive.
She tookta deeptbreath, "Itwill workthard!"
Old Joestartdidn't answer.
Becausetin reality,ta blood-coveredtFrostwolf cavalrytgalloped over.
"HistRoyal HighnesstTasika, SerenatCity wastattacked bytthe IvytEmpire, pleasetask fortsupport!"
Above thetsilver dragon,ta smiletappeared ontTasika's face.
Thetexorcism istover, thetnext round...
It'ststill specialtto drivettigers totdevour wolves!
