Online Games Barbarism and Civilization

After Shui Ruyan finished speaking, everyone in the conference room began to express their opinions.

More than half of them agreed to rescue Henan, while only a small half insisted on defending the Nanyang Basin.

Those who agreed were basically hurt by Shui Ruyan's remarks.

Since the Condor Empire could not be contained, they have been like a tortoise in these years, enduring it again and again.

Now that Shui Ruyan had hit the sore spot, they finally couldn't bear it any longer.

Everyone thinks that this war should be used to make a complete break with the Condor Empire.

Even if they fail in the end, they won't complain too much.

Because it's not the most shameful thing to be inferior in skill, it's the most shameful thing to be too scared to fight head-on.

Now even Shui Ruyan, a petite little girl, has the courage to confront the Condor Empire, and they, the big men, cannot let others look down upon them.

...

Those who advocated sticking to the Nanyang Basin were a group of guild bosses headed by Dongfang Ming.

They believe that if they choose to take the initiative despite knowing that they are not as powerful as the opponent, they are giving away lives to the Condor Army.

At the same time, they also believe that patience is not a shameful thing, and it can develop stronger psychological endurance.

History is always written by the victors. No matter how beautiful the process is, if you fail in the end, all people can give you is a sigh, and then they will rush to give words of praise to the victors. .

The most obvious example is the struggle between Chu and Han.

How was Liu Bang bullied by Xiang Yu back then?

Both my wife and my father were caught by Xiang Yu, and my father was almost cooked by Xiang Yu.

When Liu Bang was escaping, he pushed Liu Ying and Princess Lu Yuan out of the carriage several times in order to increase the speed of the carriage. Fortunately, Xia Houying hugged them back repeatedly, otherwise the two children might have died on the battlefield.

After that, there was the Hongmen Banquet that has been passed down through the ages. If Xiang Yu hadn't been so shy and embarrassed to attack, Liu Bang would have been chopped into pieces.

However, even though Liu Bang was bullied like this by Xiang Yu, he still had the last laugh, successfully unified the world, established the great Han Dynasty, and became the emperor of the Han Dynasty who was looked up to by countless people.

The great ancestor was born among commoners. Use your sword to conquer the world. Not from Tang Yu’s Zen. The king of Tangwu without rank. The dragon moves and the tiger changes. Follow the wind and cloud. Conquer chaos and conquer violence. Clarify the imperial universe. Between eight years. Haine Keding. So where is the thoroughfare to heaven? Climb the imperial pole. Ancient times have come. Contained in books. It's not possible. Not a great talent. A broad and bright strategy. Taught by counting. The appearance of the gods. An Neng is so successful...

Let's take a look at how later generations praised Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty. He was generous with all kinds of complimentary words.

Let's take a look at how future generations evaluate Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu was isolated in the south. He did not show kindness and righteousness, but was proud of his achievements. Emperor Gaozu knew this, inherited it with gentleness, extended it with generosity, and succeeded in defeating it with death.

In the past, Xiang Ji had a powerful people, who crossed the state and occupied the territory, and had a big task. However, he was defeated in Gaixia and died in the east city. The clan was burned to death. He had been laughing for thousands of years, but he was not righteous, so he abused the people on the mausoleum.

...

Because he was a loser, his weaknesses and dark sides were magnified infinitely, and one act of injustice nailed him to the pillar of shame.

Although Xiang Yu who killed Emperor Yi was treacherous, he was not the only one who did similar things in history.

Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty launched the Xuanwu Gate Incident, killing his two brothers from the same father and mother, and then forced his own father to give way to him.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who commented on Xiang Yu's benevolence and righteousness, also sent people to kill King Xiao Ming.

Zhu Yuanzhang's son Zhu Di even killed his own nephew and took the throne from his own nephew.

What they did was even more extreme than Xiang Yu, but this does not prevent future generations from praising them, because they are winners and they are qualified to write history.

A group of people headed by Dongfang Ming believed that a little impatience would mess up a big plan. Now is not the time for them to have a decisive battle with the Condor Empire, because their strength is not enough to severely damage the powerful Condor Army.

This is like an ongoing Dota 2 game. The current situation is that the Condor Empire has a huge lead in economy and experience. They are simply not qualified to start a team with the Condor Empire in the wild.

If they want to make a comeback, they have to hold on to the high ground and wait for the Condor Empire to make mistakes, and they have to take the initiative to wipe out the group four or five times.

Because with the current strength of the Condor Empire, they have enough capital to make mistakes, while the Northern Expedition Alliance cannot make any more mistakes.

The Condor Empire made a mistake once or twice, but they could make a comeback quickly if they took it slow.

As long as the Northern Expedition Alliance is captured once, their highlands will be in danger, and the Condor Empire may even attack the World Tree.

Therefore, Dongfang Ming and others would rather be scolded by the players than engage in a decisive battle with the Condor Army so hastily.

...

Seeing that the guild bosses who were divided into two camps began to argue endlessly like vendors in a vegetable market. No one on either side could persuade anyone else, Ye Ziqing shook his head helplessly.

"Everyone, everyone, can you please listen to me first?"

After coughing a few times, Ye Ziqing tried to quiet down the conference room.

Ye Ziqing still plays a very important role in the Northern Expedition Alliance. After hearing his voice, people immediately stopped arguing, and the conference room soon became quiet again.

Seeing that everyone had stopped arguing, Ye Ziqing said in a deep voice:

"Everyone, whether we are rescuing Henan or defending the Nanyang Basin, we need the full help of the Black Armor Cavalry and the Divine Arm Legion, so shouldn't we first listen to the opinions of the two presidents, Li Yufeng and Zhao Guangfu!"

After saying that, Ye Ziqing turned his attention to Li Yufeng and Zhao Guangfu, who had been silent, and then stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation.

Seeing that Zi Ziqing left this problem to himself and Zhao Guangfu, Li Yufeng and Zhao Guangfu looked at each other, stood up and said:

"Presidents, there is no need to worry about the positions of the two of us.

Although we had a lot of unpleasantness in the past, the two of us still understand the meaning of death.

So no matter which one the final result is, the two of us will give our full support.

Let me talk about my personal views below.

Regarding the sudden winter offensive launched by the Condor Empire, I personally believe that this is a war carefully planned by Ning Yuan, whose purpose is to occupy all the land north of the Yangtze River.

Why do I have this view?

The main reason is that the Condor Army's attitude towards Myanmar is too gentle.

I believe everyone here is very clear about what kind of person Ning Yuan is.

He is greedy for money, lustful and extremely possessive.

He is a brave man who can only get in but not get out.

As long as there are enough benefits, there is nothing he dares not do.

When have you ever seen Ning Yuan vomit out what he has eaten?

Never before!

That's why I say that his attitude toward Myanmar this time is so unlike himself.

Maybe some of you here are not very familiar with Myanmar. Let me briefly introduce this powerful country in Southeast Asia to you.

Myanmar is rich in gold, silver and jade, and its agriculture, forestry and fishery are very developed. It is rich in rice. In addition to self-sales, a large amount of rice is exported abroad every year.

In the game, jade may not be of much use, but gold, silver, wood, and rice are all very important resources.

The Condor Empire just had a food shortage a while ago, and their frontline troops have already relied on eating potatoes to survive. Do you think Ningyuan will let go of Myanmar, which can produce a lot of food?

At that time, all of us thought that Ningyuan would choose to take the opportunity to annex Myanmar, and then send troops from Myanmar and Vietnam to attack Laos, Cambodia and Thailand at the same time.

After destroying these countries, the Condor Empire will use Myanmar as a springboard to launch attacks on Yindu and Bangladesh at the right time.

But the fact is that Ning Yuan chose to withdraw his troops when he had all the advantages, and returned all the occupied land to the Toungoo King of Myanmar.

You must know that based on the situation in Myanmar at that time, if the Shenying Army cooperates with the neutral player armies that were fooled by Ning Yuan, they have every chance to completely capture Myanmar.

Why did Ning Yuan spit out the meat he had already eaten?

Many of us failed to figure this out at the time. Now it seems that he wanted to settle down internally first and then expand outward with all his strength!

And doesn't this Anei want to eliminate those forces like us that are enemies of it first?

Judging from the fact that the Divine Eagle Army was able to capture the Dashi Kingdom silently, and then quickly advance into the Henan area and catch us off guard, they must have planned this winter offensive for a long time.

Since the Condor Army has been planning for a long time, they will definitely not give up easily unless they achieve their goals.

So we actually have no way out now, because the strategic goal of the Shenying Army must be to drive us to the south of the Yangtze River.

Unless everyone here no longer wants this land north of the Yangtze River, we can only do our best to fight to the death with the Condor Army.

In fact, before the meeting, I had already had the idea of ​​​​fighting the Condor Army to the death.

After listening to everyone's opinions just now, I have become more determined on this idea.

Since it is a decisive battle, the battlefield must be in the plain area of ​​eastern Henan.

In my opinion, the strategic depth of the Nanyang Basin is limited, and it is not suitable to be the first battlefield.

First of all, Nanyang City is too close to Wuyang on the other side of the Funiu Mountains.

Once Fangcheng located behind the Funiu Mountain Pass is lost, Nanyang City will immediately be attacked by the enemy.

When Nanyang City is besieged by the enemy, should we save it or not?

save.

Not only will we fall into the enemy's plan to encircle and rescue Nanyang, but the Han River will also become our biggest obstacle to rescuing Nanyang.

At that time, the enemy's cavalry can attack our army that has just crossed the Han River at any time.

No help.

With the fall of Nanyang City, the entire Nanyang Basin will soon be completely occupied by the enemy.

By then, Xiangyang City will become the forefront of defense against the enemy.

In ancient times, Xiangyang City was indeed a strategic location that was easy to defend but difficult to attack, but it was based on human cold weapon warfare.

In the game, there are not only humans, but also many other races.

The Han River has no barrier effect on the flying legions of the Condor Empire.

For the Mermaid Legion of the Condor Empire, Hanshui is simply their home field.

Moreover, the Condor Empire also has an army of dragon warriors who can make clouds and rain.

If we insist on defending Xiangyang City, those dragon warriors who can make clouds and rain will be enough for us to drink from.

Hanshui is indeed a difficult barrier for ordinary ground armies to overcome, but for the special legions of the Condor Empire, Hanshui will become their home ground and a terrifying threat for them to attack us. arms.

Therefore, we must no longer look at Xiangyang, an important strategic city, from the old perspective.

Secondly, we need a stable logistics supply base.

After the Eastern Henan Plain fell into war, our only remaining grain-producing bases north of the Yangtze River were the Nanyang Basin and Jianghan Plain.

If the war is allowed to burn into the Nanyang Basin, not only the agricultural production in the Nanyang Basin will be greatly affected, but the agricultural production on the Jianghan Plain will also face the threat of the Divine Eagle Army.

Everyone must have not forgotten the fact that Ningyuan invaded Jianghan Plain with hundreds of thousands of monkeys in June last year!

Those damn monkeys not only caused the entire Hubei Province to almost lose food for a whole season, but also caused many indigenous people to leave their homes and flee.

If the war is allowed to burn into the Nanyang Basin, last year's tragedy is likely to happen again in the Jianghan Plain.

Because I can send troops to defend the line of Daba Mountain, but I cannot defend the long Han River.

So in order to prevent those damn monkeys from coming again to cause damage, we must make the closed loop of Daba Mountain, Funiu Mountain and Dabie Mountain a relatively safe area.

Finally, as President Shui Ruyan said, we have been suppressed by the Eagle Empire for so long, and domestic players have less and less confidence in us, so we can no longer be so passive.

We should use all our strength and use practical actions to make those players who support us choose to continue to support us, and let those players who remain neutral gradually fall to us.

I heard that Ning Yuan personally took command of the Eagle Army this time. This is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us.

If the three tough guys from the Condor Empire are commanding the troops this time, then with their stability, unless we can defeat them openly and openly, we will definitely not gain much advantage.

But Ning Yuan is different. Although he has grown a lot and become more powerful than before, his characteristic of liking danger in military operations has never changed.

In this war between the Condor Empire and Burmese players, Ning Yuan used surprise troops to win many times and achieved brilliant results.

Successive victories will definitely make him more and more confident, and he will become more and more fond of winning by surprise.

This is both a test and an opportunity for us.

As long as we deliberately sell a few loopholes to lure Ningyuan into taking the bait, we can take the opportunity to kill more of the Condor Army's effective forces.

Judging from the determination of the Condor Empire this time, it may be difficult for us to make them give up their strategic intention to attack the East Henan Plain in a short period of time.

So next, as analyzed by the previous presidents, we are going to fight a protracted and attrition war with the Divine Eagle Army on the plains of eastern Henan. It is best to fight with the Divine Eagle Army in a lose-lose situation.

Once the losses or consumption on the Shenying Army's side are too great and Ning Yuan gets the upper hand, then we will have the opportunity to turn Henan and Shandong into a war quagmire.

Once this war quagmire takes shape, it will not be so easy for Ning Yuan to withdraw, unless he is willing to give up the entire land south of the Yellow River. "
