  “This is the crux of the entire plot!” Meng Chao said excitedly,

  “Now, everyone thinks that the Wolf clan has been crippled, and many heavy cavalry troops have been destroyed in an organized manner. The morale of the remaining troops is low, and they are trapped in a lonely city, passively taking a beating.

  “But is this really the truth?

  “First, just like all the clans of the advanced orcs, after fifty years of explosive growth in the era of prosperity, the Wolf Clan’s population and soldiers are not too little, but too many.

  “Too many soldiers put tremendous pressure on the organization, command, and logistics of the Wolf clan. The slightest carelessness will lead to serious internal conflicts.

  “Therefore, just like the game of the brave among the five clans, the five clans are engaged in a five-clan war. It seems that the purpose of killing each other is to eliminate the weak and eliminate the weak. The most brutal and effective way is to select the best soldiers of the Hundred Battles.

  “Although the Wolf Clan suffered a series of terrible defeats and countless living forces were devoured by the surging tide of rats, there is every reason to believe that the surviving wolves are the elites who have survived hundreds of battles. They have honed their unparalleled combat skills on the line of death. Moreover, having suffered the great humiliation of being defeated by the rat people, they have completely removed the arrogance and arrogance that high-level orcs usually have and become more resilient and steady.

  “It means that they have already been baptized by the game of Bravehearts and the five races.

  “Now, as long as we can solve the morale problem of the survivors of the Wolf clan, I believe that they will definitely be able to rebound and burst out with a combat ability that will shock everyone.

  “Secondly, are the losses of the Wolf clan really as great as they look?

  “Yes. I know that the Great Horn Army has defeated the Wolf Clan’s heavily armed groups one after another in several battles, but ‘crushing’does not mean ‘annihilating’them. I believe that the rat people warriors who hastily formed an army are not capable of annihilating the experienced elites of the Wolf clan.

  “When cleaning up the battlefield, how many captives have the great horn army captured and how many corpses of the Wolf clan have been found? You should know the exact number better than I do. I believe that they are definitely not the entirety of the Wolf Clan’s heavily armed groups.

  “What about the remaining elites of the Wolf Clan? “The survivors who broke out of the encirclement and were full of hatred have all mysteriously disappeared. At least, according to the intelligence that I collected, they did not appear in the series of subsequent battles around Hundred Blade City.

  “Saintess ancient dream, don’t you think that this is a very strange thing?

  “It should be known that the troop of the Wolf clan that was defeated by the Great Horn Army mostly had a history of more than a thousand years. They had an effective organization and command system, extremely strong cohesion, and an extremely high sense of honor. They would definitely not completely collapse just because a few of their commanders were ‘beheaded’by the Great Horn Army. It was even more impossible for them to be traumatized by a crushing defeat and not dare to become enemies with the rat people anymore.

  “According to normal logic, shouldn’t the warriors of the Wolf Clan, who had suffered great humiliation, rally their troops at the first opportunity and come back to avenge their commander, as well as their face?

  “But now, the defeated soldiers have all disappeared. There are no more flags of the Wolf clan’s heavy troops that were defeated by the Great Horn Legion on the battlefield. It’s as if they are all suppressed by a mysterious and powerful force and are accumulating their strength in the dark, gritting their teeth and waiting for the most perfect and fatal opportunity!

  “As the saying goes, ‘the soldiers of mourning will win’. I think that compared to the defenders in hundred blade city who are out in the open and have nowhere to run, these ‘soldiers of mourning’who have mysteriously disappeared are more worthy of our attention, aren’t they?

  “Thirdly, if I’m not wrong, in ‘Jackwolf’Kanus’s plan, his biggest trump card is not the heavy troop of the Wolf clan, but another troop that has been tested a hundred times harsher than the Wolf clan. Literally, one out of a hundred has crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. He is full of anger, hatred, and wild faith. Besides, besides ‘Jackwolf’kanus, there is no one else that he can rely on. He can only rely on an army that is loyal to him!”


  Meng Chao’s words were so convincing that Gu Meng Saintess was entranced.

  Seeing Meng Chao stop the conversation, she subconsciously said, “How can there be such an army?”


  “Of course there is. It’s far away and right in front of us. The Great Horn Army is the trump card of ‘Jackal’Kanus!”Meng Chao’s words were shocking.

  Gu Meng Saintess widened her eyes. Her four pupils shot out lightning-like rays at the same time.

  “Everybody thought that ‘Jackal’kanus would lead the heavy troop of the Wolf clan into a tug-of-war with the Great Horn Legion, which would result in both sides suffering heavy losses. Up to now, the situation on the surface seemed to be developing in the same way. The number of rat soldiers stationed around hundred blade city had far exceeded a million. Even if they were faced with the dilemma of running out of ammunition and food, they would still have to pay a terrible price if they wanted to annihilate the rat soldiers who had fervent faith in the great horn rat god. In the end, even if the Wolf Clan successfully completed the mission of ‘annihilating the Great Horn Legion’, they would still be rewarded with a miserable victory of killing 1,000 enemies and sacrificing 800 of their own. The Wolf clan was destined to never recover. They could only continue to be at the mercy of the Lion and tiger clans like every glorious era in the past 3,000 years.”


  Meng Chao changed the topic and said, “But what if there is no tug-of-war where corpses are strewn all over the place and blood is flowing everywhere?

  “What if ‘Jackal’kanus can find an unbelievable tactic and defeat the Great Horn Army cleanly and cleanly?

  “What if ‘Jackal’Kanus is able to defeat the great horn army without any bloodshed and summon the strongest rats, including the White Bone Battalion, who are selected by the millions of rats after a life-and-death trial in a way that is similar to raising venomous insects?

  “The Rats and the wolves are both known for their numbers, but their individual combat ability is their greatest weakness.

  “Right now, by relying on the brutal trials of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the weakness of both of them has been greatly compensated. Moreover, both of them are obedient to ‘jackal’kanus.

  “If the Lion Man and the Tigermen still don’t understand the situation and mistakenly believe that the Great Horn Legion and the Wolf clan’s heavy army group have both suffered heavy losses, thereby exacerbating the internal conflicts, do you really think that ‘Jackal’kanus has no chance to soar to the sky and laugh until the end?

  “No. Based on my understanding of ‘Jackal’kanus, he will definitely not passively ‘wait’for the conflict between the lion-men and the Tigermen to escalate. He must have arranged a series of ingenious arrangements in Crimson Gold City before the heavy troop of the Wolf clan marched out and besieged the great horn army, luring the lion-men and the Tigermen into a dead end of the struggle between the snipe and the clam!

  “That’s right. I remember that inside the Great Horn Army, there was a prophecy that the Lion Man and the Tigermen were about to start a war in Crimson Gold City. The Great Horn Army would be able to conquer crimson gold city effortlessly.

  “If I’m not wrong, this prophecy was also told to you by the so-called great horn rat god in your dream and asked you to spread it out, right?

  “Ancient Dream Saintess, don’t you find it very strange? Logically speaking, this is the top secret that determines the future of the Great Horn Army and all the rat people. Even if it’s true, it should be kept highly confidential. How could everyone know about it?

  “A few days ago, I thought hard and couldn’t figure it out.

  “Until now, I suddenly figured it out. This is also part of the plan of ‘Jackal’kanus.

  “You must know that for the sake of the supreme power of the Gold clan and even Tulanze, the Liger and tiger clans have been fighting each other for the past three thousand years, both openly and secretly.

  “However, they’re much smarter than the Tauren and wild boar men of the Bloodhoof clan. They didn’t make the conflict between them public. Instead, they formed a tacit understanding in the fierce competition and took turns to be the banker to protect the common interests of each other.

  “However, tacit understanding was meant to be broken.

  “As the saying goes, ‘there are no two suns in the sky’. Taking turns to be the banker was indeed very good, but how could it be as easy as having great power?

  “In the past fifty years of the prosperous era, the population, the number of soldiers, and the number of experts of the major clans were all expanding abnormally. I believe that the lion and tiger clans were no exception.

  “What is predictable is that after the prosperous era of the past fifty years, there will be a glorious era of the past fifty years. The scale, intensity, and duration of the Battle of Glory will be unprecedented.

  “Whoever can command all the armies of Tulan will plunder astronomical war profits and consolidate the New Order of Tulan. They might even have the chance to become the eternal king of Tulan!

  “I believe that, faced with such a tremendous temptation, the lion and tiger clans, who have always been ‘brothers and sisters’, will certainly be filled with discordant noises. Countless ambitious people are sharpening their blades, and it is possible that the glorious city of Crimson Gold will be turned into a steaming meat mill at any moment.

  “If the leaders of the lion and tiger clans have enough clear minds and profound wisdom, and if they are given more time, they might be able to come to an agreement on the distribution of command and war dividends in the unprecedented War of glory.

  “But how can canus let them get what they want?

  “Putting the conflict between the lion and tiger clans on the surface through the prophecy of the Great Horn Army is only the first card canus played.

  “It must be known that as the great horn riot became more and more intense, apart from the rat people, even many clan warriors gradually believed in the existence of the great horn rat god, including many lion-men and Tigermen.

  “As the prophecy gradually developed, the lion and tiger clans living in Crimson Gold City must have heard of the rumor that they were about to have an internal conflict with each other.

  “Although rumors stop at the wise ones, in any clan in this world, idiots are the majority after all. Moreover, this prophecy is definitely not groundless. I don’t believe that the lion and tiger clans didn’t accumulate any resentment and conflict during the power struggle over the past 3,000 years. With Hu Lang kanus’s methods, there are naturally 100 ways to turn a tiny spark into an uncontrollable flame that would burn the entire crimson gold city.

  “When the time comes, even if the wise men of the Lion and tiger clans are unwilling to fight each other and suffer heavy losses, it will be very difficult for them to resolve the deadlock of ‘strike first, gain the upper hand, and then suffer the consequences’!”
