” 66 Technology Points…”
After deciding to attack Wild Wolf Town, Zhao Yu wasn’t sure how he could win the war with just 66 remaining technology points.
After several meeting with hismander team, he still didn’t get any useful information.
Or rather, with the current Sergeantmander’s abilities, taking down a city was still too difficult.
The response was always that it was tough to win, without any feasible solutions.
“66 soldiers, or 13 elite warriors?”
Zhao Yu felt that even with these additional troops, it wouldn’t be enough to win, especially since hecked the necessarymand skills.
“Or perhaps, 30 technology points to train a centurion?”
Right now, the only viable way to win seemed to be this.
Zhao Yu took a deep breath and spent 30 technology points to train a centurionmander.
“Centurion, I n to attack Wild Wolf Town. What are your thoughts?”
As soon as the centurion appeared, Zhao Yu immediately asked his opinion.
However, the centurion didn’t rush to answer. Instead, he exchanged information with the other four sergeantmanders beforeing to a conclusion:
“Commander, I need to conduct reconnaissance on Wild Wolf Town. After understanding the enemy’s situation, I can formte a battle n…” “Approved!”
Zhao Yu’s face brightened with joy. The centurion was indeed courageous enough to suggest reconnaissance.
Unlike the Sergeantmander, who either admitted hisck of siege capabilities or highlighted the huge disparity between enemy and us, or proposed impractical methods, like missile barrages.
If he had that many missiles for sieging, why would he need amander? The previously acquired drone was still in the base, but its battery was limited. It was too far to fly directly from the base to Wild Wolf Town.
Thus, the centurion sent a team to escort the drone equipment to a location five kilometers from Wild Wolf Town.
The reconnaissance process was rtively simple. Under the control of two pilots, the centurion quickly gathered information that Zhao Yu couldn’t understand.
The drone flew at a high altitude, using its high-definition camera for reconnaissance, and fortunately wasn’t detected by the people in Wild Wolf Town.
After all, their former opponents never had ess to drones, so they barely guarded against aerial threats.
“How did it go?!”
When the drone returned, Zhao Yu immediately asked.
The chip processing system in his brain had already been running through it countless times.
“Commander, I have nine proposals toplete the mission…”
Zhao Yu was overjoyed. He didn’t expect the centurionmander to be so capable to propose nine methods at once.
” What’s the way to minimize casualties?!”
” A strategy of psychological warfare…”
“First step, send a negotiation letter to the enemy, making them gather their high-ranking officials together without understanding our intentions…” “Second step, deploy an unmannedbat drone tounch missiles, bombing their gathering point, leaving them leaderless…”
“Third step, create an electromaic signal jamming device…”
“I found that the enemy mainly relies on walkie-talkies formunication. If we drive our signal jamming vehicles under their four walls, we can block their internalmunications…”
“With theirmand dead, it prevents any small leaders from taking charge and turning the tide…”
“Fourth step, deploy Hummingbird drones to broadcast messages, telling them to surrender and definingbat zones and civilian areas…”
“With the groundworkid, the psychological warfare will be sessful, and at least half of the enemy’s forces will surrender…”
“Fifth step, eliminate the stubborn resistance, and the mission isplete!” Listening to the centurionmander’s strategy, Zhao Yu was enlightened. This psychological warfare strategy was indeed excellent.
Mainly relying on their possession of unmannedbat drones and missiles. Just the appearance of such technology would inevitably strike fear in the enemy, as in this post-apocalyptic world, only major powers could have such weapons.
Even ck Rock City might not possess such armaments.
For a mere Wild Wolf Town to be targeted by such a major power, nobody would think of resisting.
Especially when all of theirmands were wiped out, leaving them leaderless, it’s easier to make the enemy surrender.
However, Zhao Yu had a concern. Once they deployed unmannedbat drones and missiles, they couldn’t let anyone from Wild Wolf Town leave. Otherwise, if the news got out, it could bring immeasurable danger.
Of course, it’s also possible that no one would dare to attack him, thinking he truly has the support of the major power.
Such matters are uncertain and Zhao Yu didn’t dare to take the risk lightly. “What’s the next best n? Preferably one that doesn’t involve using unmannedbat drones and missiles…”
The centurionmander quickly outlined another strategy for Zhao Yu, this time including the death rate and sess rate.
“Such a high death rate?!”
ording to the centurionmander, without using unmannedbat drones and missiles, at least half of his hundred men would die, even with tanks, armored vehicles, and unmanned reconnaissance drones locating the enemy’s positions.
Most importantly, this method still carried a certain risk of failure.
Zhao Yu stroked his chin and rethink about his decision.
The best method was psychological warfare. It has almost a hundred percent chance of sess and a low death rate, possibly even no casualties.
But the downside was the potential for unnecessary trouble, such as attracting the attention of ck Rock City or other major powers.
Hesitating for a long time, Meng Xian came looking for Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu had to set aside his concerns and went outside the wall to receive her.
“Commander Zhao, I didn’t expect you to be so magnanimous, epting the entire one millionpensation mentioned by the Han family…”
“After returning, I thought about it. After all, we are allies. It seems inappropriate for you to bear thepensation alone…”
“So, I’ve decided to take people to the old city now to collect some gasoline…”
“We’ll split the one million between our two families…”
Meng Xian felt something was amiss, worried that Zhao Yu might be considering wiping out their Meng House Vige to pay off the debt.
After discussing with others, she decided to take on half of thepensation.
Now that they have electric cars traded by Zhao Yu, it was much easier to go to the old city.
Unlike before, when they relied on walking and pushcarts that needed a week for a single trip.
Zhao Yu hadn’t expected Meng Xian and her people to have such awareness. However, he did not disclose his n to attack Wild Wolf Town.
After all, such a move would be tantamount to provoking the Han family, and the people of Meng House Vige might not dare to follow.
Especially considering their previous scene of kneeling, Zhao Yu was very clear about the power of ck Rock City and the Han family, deeply ingrained in thisnd, where no one dared to act rashly.
“Alright!” Zhao Yu agreed.
“If there’s extra gasoline, I’m also willing to buy it, whether it’s weapons, equipment, or food…”
Meng Xian immediately epted the deal, “Great, it’s settled then. We’ll set off now and be back as soon as possible…”
After she left, Zhao Yu gradually understood which n he should choose.
“I’ve decided not to pay the Han family’s one millionpensation, and I also n to attack Wild Wolf Town. This means, no matter what I do, I have already offended them…”
“Therefore, when I make my move, I must do it with a decisive and swift approach. The psychological warfare strategy is the best choice…”
He needed to exchange time for strength.
As long as he owned the Wild Wolf Town, he hasplete the revenge mission and have a thousand technology points.
Subtracting three hundred for the three basic buildings, he would still have seven hundred points left. Even if all were used to train soldiers, he would have over eight hundred soldiers, enough to stand against the Han family.
“Moreover, as long as I capture Wild Wolf Town and prevent anyone from leaving, the news won’t spread, and no one will know we used missiles and fighter jets…”
Zhao Yu meticulously calcted this approach and found it feasible.
“The night is still long. Let’s execute the n now!”
Zhao Yu took a deep breath. Sess or failure hinged on this move.
Originally, he nned to umte strength slowly through daily tasks. Under the Han family’s pressure, he had to act decisively and took down Wild Wolf Town first.
Soon, Zhao Yu called the centurionmander and conveyed his decision to implement the psychological warfare strategy.
“Commander, the items we need to exchange now include: eight traction rockets, four electromaic signal jamming vehicles, four tanks, and a group of Hummingbird drones…”
The list of required exchanges was extensive and Zhao Yu was relieved that the centurionmander had made the list based on the resources avable in his base.
Zhao Yu was quite confident tounch his attack now.
Two hourster.
On the open ground of the base, there appeared over a hundred military pickup trucks, two tanks, two semi-trailers towing tanks, a drone mounted with missiles, and a dense array of Hummingbird drones.
In addition, various types of weapons were ready, including rocketunchers, machine guns, mortars, and more.
This time, Zhao Yu had used up all his resources, nearly depleting every type of resource avable.
Everything was ready.
Zhao Yu, full of spirit, waved his hand andmanded, “Depart!”
A hundred team led by the centurion left the base.
Zhao Yu didn’t go on this siege.
He stayed in the base, waiting for the moment the revenge mission waspleted and the technology points credited, to quickly train five hundred soldiers.
First, to speed up the construction of the base and to station some troops in Wild Wolf Town. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhao Yu was well aware that Wild Wolf Town was insignificant; the real challenge was the Han family’s counterattack from ck Rock City after taking over the Wild Wolf Town.
The corresponding n was already proposed by the centurion: after upied the Wild Wolf Town, a twenty-man squad would be dispatched on the essential route from ck Rock City to Wild Wolf Town for reconnaissance.
If the Han family sent few men, he would fight with all his might to capture them. If the number exceeded his capabilities, Zhao Yu should abandon Wild Wolf Town and retreat to his base.
Zhao Yu stood at the entrance of the base, watched the departing troops..
