All the other dynasties in the eastern region were envious when they saw how the Dragon Hawk Alliance and the Howling Sea Alliance conquered so many cities in one go.
As the protagonists, the Dragon Hawk Alliance and the Howling Sea Alliance were naturally excited too. There was a celebratory atmosphere in their sects' encampments.
"That's all there is to Moro. In just three months, we've already conquered over 30 cities. Besides, the reinforcements they sent twice were basically wiped out by us. Let's see how Moro is going to make a comeback this time! "In a hall of the Howling Sea Alliance, a few elders said excitedly.
Over 30 cities were quite a lot for the Howling Sea Alliance. That was because they only had over 200 cities in the entire Howling Sea Alliance. In three months, it was equivalent to expanding their territory by one-eighth. How could they not be excited?
Sure enough, war was the best way to obtain resources. One must know that the cities were not directly connected to each other. Instead, each city was surrounded by an extremely vast wilderness.
Moreover, it would take at least one or two days to travel from one city to another. For some of the more remote cities, the distance between the two cities would be even further. Some would require ten to twenty days, and some would even require one or two months to travel.
Therefore, the range of more than 30 cities was very wide, because it included the wilderness.
Although most of the people in each city lived in the cities, there were also a small number of people living in the wilderness. More importantly, most of the resources were actually in the wilderness. The resources in the cities were only a small portion.
Thus, with over 30 cities under their control, they could obtain unimaginable amounts of resources from the wilderness in these regions.
How could they not be excited in the face of such great benefits? Because the Howling Sea Alliance's territory was too small, the speed at which they obtained resources was far slower than the other dynasties.
Additionally, the rate at which they could obtain resources determined the number and rate at which they could nurture talents. Just think about it. Every foreign dynasty had to nurture hundreds of thousands or even millions of cultivators. It was hard to imagine just how many resources were required to nurture so many cultivators every day.
Therefore, only by continuously obtaining more territory and more resources could the dynasties develop faster and better.
"After this battle, we'll make it so that Moro will never be able to strut around in front of us again. In the future, we'll even be able to trample on them. Pass down my orders. Send another 100,000 reinforcements. This time, the reinforcements must be at least at the Nascent Soul stage! "Thinking about their achievements, King Xiaohai was extremely excited.
Their Kingdom of Howling Sea had always relied on wars to expand their territory. Even the 200 cities they had now were obtained through countless wars.
However, it had been stable for more than a hundred years. Therefore, Xiao Hai had not expanded its territory for more than a hundred years. Now, the opportunity had finally come. They had taken over 30 cities in one go. Now that they had tasted the sweetness of victory, how could they stop now?
Therefore, he wanted to take advantage of this time when the morale was greatly boosted to increase his military strength and beat Moro more ruthlessly, thereby obtaining more cities.
No one objected to the Outer King's idea. Because everyone was clearly aware that this was the best time to seize this opportunity to weaken Moro, so who would raise any objections at this moment?
At this moment, Elder Li stood up and said, "Outer King, I have no objections to increasing our military strength. However, I think it's time for us to consider withdrawing from the war!"
"Withdrawing from the war? What do you mean, Elder Li?" Everyone was stunned when they heard Elder Li's words.
Now that everyone was even more ambitious and wanted to take over more of Moro's territory, how could they leave the battlefield at this time?
"Outer King, although we've achieved great results, many of Moro's experts have yet to appear. If we continue to attack fiercely like this and really make Moro feel a sense of crisis, then Moro will definitely launch a fierce counterattack. At that time, it will obviously be impossible for us to attack the city and plunder the land like this. Instead, we will suffer heavy losses.
Therefore, what I mean is that while Moro is still sending out a large number of experts, we should increase our military strength and take the opportunity to take more cities. However, we must not advance recklessly. If Moro Luo has already dispatched experts, then we should stop expanding appropriately. We can't attack the city anymore! "Elder Li said." That's right.
"Outer King, I don't agree with Elder Li's suggestion." At this moment, Elder Tan stood up and refuted.
"Elder Tan, why don't you agree?" Outer King asked.
"Outer King, now that our morale is like a rainbow, we're not fighting alone. We have an ally in the Dragon Hawk Empire. Although Moro's experts have yet to appear, the experts of the Howling Sea Empire and the Dragon Hawk Empire have yet to appear.
If we withdraw from the war just because Moro's experts have appeared, wouldn't we be boosting the morale of others and diminishing our own prestige? With the alliance of two experts from the other dynasties, even if Moro's experts appear, they won't be able to do anything to us.
Although Moro is strong, now that they're fighting against two foreign dynasties at the same time, it's obvious that they're somewhat powerless. We should take advantage of this opportunity to beat Moro up badly, or even beat them until they're powerless to turn the situation around.
Before the war, in the past century, our eastern region had always been in a state of balance. No matter which dynasty it was, it was basically impossible for them to expand their territory.
Now that we've finally broken this balance with the Dragon Hawk Empire, we naturally have to try our best to obtain as much territory as possible. Otherwise, it'll be impossible for us to expand in the future, "Elder Tan said.
"Elder Tan's words make sense." Outer King of the Howling Sea Empire nodded, feeling that Elder Tan was right.
Ever since the war began, although Moro had put up strong resistance several times, they were no match for the Howling Sea Empire at all. This meant that their alliance with the Dragon Hawk Empire was correct. This made it impossible for Moro to take care of two fronts at the same time.
Because of this, they should not give Moro any chance. Even if they sent out experts, they had to fight together.
If they couldn't kill these experts, Moro's foundation would not be shaken. Even if they lost their territory, they wouldn't lose any experts.
As long as they recovered, they could attack the Howling Sea Empire or the Dragon Hawk Empire at any time. This was not a good thing for them.
