Hearing Lubit's question, the two generals looked ashamed. The ape-faced general said, "We want to settle the internal problems first, but we've been busy pacifying the soldiers and repairing the two platforms. We don't have time to deal with those rats."
Lubit narrowed his eyes. "You two are really busy. How about this? Since I'm here, I should help out a little. Let me take care of those two rats. "
The two generals naturally knew what Lubit was planning. The Black Ball and Black Cat were old unions that had been in operation for many years. These unions were quite rich, and now that Lubit was using the excuse of taking care of them, in reality, all the profits would fall into his pocket. It was a classic case of using public power for private gain. Of course, they wouldn't expose him, but they were quite disdainful of Lubit's selfish actions in front of a great enemy.
Rupert laughed and went down the city wall to gather people to attack and eradicate the two unions.
At the same time, in the camp at the edge of the desert, Allen's light screen tent was already filled with people. It was an impromptu tactical meeting. In front of Allen was a three-dimensional model of Mokedan, and Smoker was explaining the fortress's defense system. Smoker was born in the Empire and had stayed in Mokedan for so many years, so he knew the fortress's defense system better than anyone else.
Apart from Allen, there were also a few trusted aides of Lola, Alice's generals, and the leaders and vice-leaders of Blue Bird and Black Heart Unions. Smoker had just finished explaining the fortress's weapons platform. There were a total of six weapons platforms at the south gate, and each platform was equipped with many high-energy cannons, multi-barreled beam turrets, physical gun silos, and other equipment. If they were to go all out, the area of attack could cover a wide area of one kilometer in front of the city.
In other words, when attacking the fortress, the firing area with almost no blind spots would become a lightning pool. Judging from Mokedan's ammunition and energy reserves, the fortress would be able to hold out for a long time even if it was a saturated bombardment. Apart from that, the fortress's other advantage was its aerial firepower. Now, in addition to the three to four hundred airships of the fortress, the Empire had sent over another batch. This batch of aerial firepower would become a severe test for the ground attackers. Right now, Allen only had a few dozen flying ships on his side. Moreover, the ship type was not uniform, and the firepower was also uneven. Some cargo ships were even equipped with a few high-energy cannons to serve as battleships. Of course, with the resources at hand, Allen was not surprised at all that he could only get such a small number of airships.
"Everyone, the firepower of the fortress is only one aspect. However, it also had another headache, and that was the fortress's defensive barrier. Every fortress of the empire is equipped with a 'Jewel Wall' system. If this defensive system is fully activated, not even a Great General will be able to break through it in a short time … "
The former imperial general pointed at the model, and rhombus-shaped objects began to rise from the outer walls. They were evenly distributed around the fortress and even over the city. When the largest rhombus rose from the center of Mokedan, rays of light began to connect the other rhombus-shaped objects to form a net-like barrier. Smoker spread out his hands. "This is the Jewel Wall system. It has many functions, such as conducting, absorbing, and reflecting. What's worth noting is that it also has a corrosive layer that can defend against and weaken physical attacks. This is a multi-layered energy barrier. Once it's activated, it will be very difficult for us to break through it with our current military strength. "
Blue Devil stepped forward and said, "What if we don't insist on attacking the south gate and switch to another gate?"
"Unfortunately, as you can see, the Jewel Wall system's defense is omnidirectional. Let alone changing the city gate, you won't even be able to break through it from the air. "Smoker shrugged.
Allen pointed at the foundation of Mokedan. "Does the defensive barrier penetrate underground?"
'"No, but the outer layer of Mokedan's underground armor is all reinforced with high-strength alloy armor plates. It's basically impossible to enter the city from underground. Moreover, once we dig tunnels on a large scale, just the large amount of digging equipment will attract the attention of the other party. At that time, they only need to send out airships to bombard us in turn. I guarantee that we won't have time to work. "
"It's watertight." Allen smiled and said, "But it's not completely hopeless. After all, our army is not a regular army."
He said meaningfully and looked at Spider Empress Yami, who had been silent all this time.
Then, Allen drew up a rough plan of attack, which was continuously supplemented and perfected by others. Then, Smoker, the imperial general who knew Mokedan like the back of his hand, constantly perfected the plan. By evening, the entire plan had been roughly decided. Although there were still details that needed to be perfected, the general direction did not need to be changed. After the meeting, Allen left Yami behind and let the others leave first.
The Spider Empress, who had suffered greatly in Allen's hands, pursed her lips. Allen did not stand on ceremony with her and directly asked, "I remember that there are some arachnids in your spider nest that can burrow into the ground?"
"Yes, but don't forget that the imperial general also said that there is a high-strength alloy armor under Mokedan. My spider can't dig through the armor."
"No, but Baker and his soldiers can."
"You want them to act with my spider?"
"Why, can't I?" Allen asked.
Yami snorted, "Of course not in the past. Now, it's naturally up to you. But I have to remind you that even if my spider dug day and night, it would take two or three days for it to dig a passageway for the army to enter. "
"No, I never thought of sending an army into the city." Allen looked at the gemstone wall barrier outside Mokedan. "I only need your spider to enter the inner city and destroy the system for me."
Yami looked at the gemstone wall barrier outside Mokedan and said, "When does it start?"
Allen said, "Tomorrow we will attack head-on. Of course, the sooner the better."
"Then tonight. I'll go down and arrange it."
Just as she was about to leave the tent, Allen called out to her, "General Yami, I know that although Alice gave you to me, your master is always her alone. I'm not asking you to be loyal to me, but for the time being, Alice and I have the same goal. So you just need to carry out every order I give you during this period of time. You might as well treat me as someone who is giving orders in Alice's place for the time being. "
Yami turned around and said, "You have some self-awareness. I really don't know why Lady Alice did this."
"Then you might as well think about it. Since Alice did this, she must have her reasons. Do you doubt her vision?"
This time, Yami was speechless. She twisted her snake waist and got out of the tent.
