Chapter 1083: Grizzly Army

e"Grandpa, you don't think I have a chance" The girl seemed somewhat incredulous. The Saint and the Saintess were the biggest rivals there were, but her grandpa said the Saintess wasn't good enough..........

In just a short month, the situation in Grizzly County has changed dramatically.

The tyrannical leader's death, combined with the flooding of the waste processing district, pushed the planet's already fragile ecosystem to the brink.

Man's actions stirred up a wave of unrest among the orcs, and food began to dwindle.

This caused the orc armies to be decimated one by one.

It's either surrender or collapse.

Only the most elite black orc scrap heavy infantry remains.

This orc, the Ethereal clan is looking at it with greedy eyes.

This is definitely a high-tier heavy infantry card for the Stargazer era.

Since Tyrannus is already dead, why not take this opportunity to absorb his legion

Thinking about it, the planets are actually expendable. After all, the star belongs to the Alliance. Relying on black market dealings and exploiting beastmen for profit isn't a sustainable strategy in the long run; we'll have to abandon this place sooner or later anyway.

The benefits to humanity now are negligible; we can simply obtain them through other means later. With the death of the leader as an opportunity, wouldn't it be more beneficial to incorporate this elite infantry force into our ranks

Therefore, the Virtual Reality headquarters directly ordered the black merchants to abandon planetary defense and instead incorporate the Black Orcs into their ranks.

The black market merchant originally wanted to use a large sum of money to open a void channel, transporting food, energy supplies, and war reserves to the fortress. With these supplies, the defenders should be able to hold out.

However, this was stopped by the virtual intelligence think tank.

They analyze that the Black Orcs will not obey unless driven to desperation.

A black beast's head isn't filled with much, mostly just things about bashing in enemy skulls.

but that doesn't mean it won't find its own way.

The situation is dire. Even if the orcs are incapable of thought, they will only submit if the scrap war fortress falls.

Therefore, we must first put the orcs in a difficult situation.

The human race's culture cards are especially powerful (the Xu Ling tribe also acknowledges this).

Playing the emotional card, logical rule cards, tactical and strategic cards, and subverting planetary workers are all things that humans do well.

The Virtual Intelligence Institute speculates that the human race's home-based forces are unlikely to be involved in ground warfare in the early stages.

Because it is rare for a race to directly airdrop armed forces onto a foreign planet to intervene in a riot, the current army does not yet have that capability.

They predict that the Human race will definitely stir up the Gray Bear County riot as the main force, just like the Sun Pharaoh of the year also had similar cards.

However, with these low-quality militias, to put the 8,000 Black Orcs equipped with scrap bomb launchers and great axes, and with extremely high physical fitness, in a difficult situation would take at least ten years and mobilize more than 900,000 insurgents.

The human race doesn't have that capability. First of all, they were newcomers, shattering planetary industry and inciting slaves. It would be impossible to feed so many mouths.

Therefore, it's possible to observe first and even re-contact humans at the right time, providing tangible benefits to humankind and putting pressure on the Black Orcs, forcing them to lean towards the Voidlings.

.......

The predictions of the Virtual Intelligence Institute are mostly accurate.

Lu Cheng would definitely not directly deploy human weaponry to an unfamiliar planet. While the Shan Hai Corps possesses a high level of combat proficiency, they would struggle in environments that are not fully understood.

The potential for heavy casualties makes it not worth the risk.

Besides, with only 10,000 light infantry in hand, what can we do to defend against the dragon boat if we throw them in

Therefore, using cultural cards to plan and mobilize is the best.

Moreover, as the think tank speculated.

The human-supported grizzly militia was initially unstoppable until they encountered the Black Orc army.

These heavily armed thugs possess terrifying combat capabilities.

The Grizzly vanguard, approaching the Rubble Fortress, was crushed within three days.

A lone traveler dispersed the three vanguard battalions of the Bear Army.

Frontline battle report transmitted. Dragon Boat arrived.

According to Su Dingfang's analysis, these Black Orcs' [Heavy Scrap Armor] had a crushing defensive star-level advantage over the Bearded Army Half-Orc Scouts' unarmored troops.

On the weapons front, the Black Orcs are clearly more brutal. Their spitter-type grenade launchers have high-star spell AoE abilities, and the terrifying Orc warriors wielding giant cleavers can easily tear apart Imperial scouts.

Lu Cheng was looking at the data analysis results that gave him the general's badge.

The HP values of the "Grizzly Army" and "Black Orc" on the table exceeded ten thousand.

That is, even 10,000 HP of the Grizzly Army probably can't match the 1 HP of the Black Orc Legion.

Lu Cheng reacted immediately, "We've run into some elite infantry!"

The Orc faction has a low-tier industrial card and no super weapons. Their defenses are also average. It seems all the money was spent on this unit card.

Looking at the golden skull on the table, Lu Cheng fell into deep thought.

Two options.

First, deploy the Shan Hai Shi.

With the backing of Shanhaiguan, a top-tier army even more powerful than a nine-star Black Orc, forcibly landed to fight a bloody battle.

Su Dingfang believed that at a projected cost of 400-1,000 casualties, it would be possible to secure the victory against the entrenched Level 8 Elite Army stationed in the 7-Star Fortress.

Land Cheng thought about it for a moment.......

Deploying to land at the Sea-Mountain Pass requires several rounds of terrestrial defense firepower. While its transport star rating is high, a Red 1-star fortress class needs at least one full turn to deploy from orbit to the ground.

Things have gone downhill, and even with these casualty figures, it just doesn't seem profitable.

Next, we'll use bombing...

Using the most advanced machine, the Jingwei, in low Earth orbit, a three-barreled shoulder-mounted artillery tower was used to open the shell. Then, the Winged Army air force attacked, pouring their power into it.

Think about it, that's not going to work either.

This is the territory of the alliance. New here You better hide something.

Besides, the first-generation battleship's main armament could easily flatten a gold tier 7 fortress, but the spiritual energy consumed would probably be more expensive than the target itself.

After much deliberation, it seems the only option is to arm our local militia and defeat the beastmen. The cost will be minimal...

......

The Virtual Wisdom Library is mostly accurate in its predictions for most confrontations, but it gets the crucial parts wrong.

The Human race did indeed ultimately decide to arm the militia, and they could not realistically afford to support 900,000 people, nor did they have 10 turns to waste.

Lu Cheng only took one round to order the righteous army to collect a large amount of scrap.

After the Grizzly County Uprising, the orc characteristic material card [Scrap Yard] fell into the hands of the Song Dynasty.

A turn's time duration is also quite large.

In the next round, the rebels were all equipped with [scrap mecha].

These, even with armor performance that's inferior to high-star sandstone, look like they are cheap and affordable.

After enjoying the luxuries of fine clothes and food, the Dragon Boat Division possesses nearly 20 million high-star laborers. They are idle anyway, so why not open a few scrap metal workshops in the Dragon Boat Division, releasing their surplus capacity.

Of course, Lu Cheng's main industrial cards, [Qingqiu] and [Penglai], are not in his hand. To build large-scale weaponry like Scrap Warfare Riders and Scrap War Machinery Towers would be more than enough.

Developing some old-fashioned mechanical gears or machines would be easy if we focus on light industries.

With the assistance of Jingwei and Tai Bai, even light industry wouldn't be too simple to get started.

Twenty million high-star workers, with just a single command, utilized the available scrap materials to arm nearly 100,000 insurrectionists.

With just this 100,000 blood units, the quality instantly improves.

The battle between the rebel forces equipped with scrap-metal war machines and the orcs in the fortress has seen casualty exchange rates reach as high as 90:1, even 80:1, exceeding initial projections.

However, such a comparison of exchange makes it inhumane for the Allied forces to fight hard.

Even Lu Cheng's non-orthodox deck is not playable, this way the morale will also drop.

Also needs to be equipped with heavy land combat units.

The issue was that when we passed through the stargate, everyone was lightly equipped.

...the Qiongqi No. 1 flew tiger armored vehicle, not a single one....

Let alone such enormous figures as the Suo Fang and the Jiu Yuan Lou Shi.

This is a tough one. Would we have to mine resources on-site and build heavy industry

Of Qingqiu and Penglai, which one isn't a heavy industrial district painstakingly crafted over millions of years

Which faction can raise heavy industry in dozens of rounds

At least Lu Cheng can't do it.......

Card Event - Xun Yu's Suggestion:

"Xun Yu, do you have any brilliant strategies Tell me..." Lu Cheng saw that someone had maxed out their intelligence and directly shot them.

"I don't have any brilliant schemes, but Lu, the military governor, comes from a military background and is always involved in warfare. Matters concerning the livelihood of the people in the rear are entrusted to us for management. Xun Yu still has some usable items in his possession."

Lu Cheng scratched his head, the livelihood is indeed a delegated card, pointing to the entrusted management.

Military logistics and industrial manufacturing are its own strengths, so it must take charge of them itself.

As for front-line command, rear-area civilian affairs, and military confrontations, I don't understand, won't do it, and won't meddle. I always delegate these matters to professionals.

Then Xun Yu said he had a few usable things in his hands Was it a people's livelihood card

Could it be that there are civilian cards on this dragon boat that could help us breach the city and alleviate the urgent need for heavy siege weaponry

"Quick, hand it over! Let me see!"He must be an ancient fairy!It's true what they say, knowledge is power.Once in the Immortal Ascension Realm, Lu Cheng had already seen through the truth of Wen Daochang's city walls. At this moment,...
