Douluo Dalu: Tiger Roars in the Universe

Chapter 246: The Allied Forces’ Flaw

Although Dai Yaochen had made up his mind that the Northeastern army he led must win and not lose, and must achieve considerable results, when he actually took action, Dai Yaochen found that it was not an easy task to achieve his expected goals.

As the enemy in this war, the coalition forces have an army of 400,000. Although these 400,000 troops are composed of a variety of troops from various countries and are far less elite than the Xing Luo Empire, their goal this time is just to resist.

After all, defending a city is completely different from fighting in the field. Even untrained civilians can play a certain role in defending a city, not to mention an army of 400,000.

If they are determined to hold on, then even if this coalition force is not very elite, with the number of 400,000, if they hold on and resist with all their might, Dai Yaochen will really have no way to deal with them.

Even if Dai Yaochen wanted to use the soul master troops to break into the city, he would not have any chance. The number of soul masters on the opposite side was even greater, and there was not much hope of relying on the soul master troops to open a gap.

This principle also applies to Titled Douluo.

Even if Dai Yaochen sent out Titled Douluo to attack the city, the other side also had a Titled Douluo in charge, and a Golden Crocodile Douluo with a cultivation base of ninety-eight. Even if Dai Yaochen had Star Luo Patriarch, he would be no match for the Golden Crocodile Douluo.

Although both of them are now level 98 warriors, Patriarch Xingluo has only recently made a breakthrough, while Golden Crocodile Douluo is a veteran warrior. It is estimated that he has now reached the peak of level 98, but has not been able to break through the final bottleneck. Moreover, as far as Dai Yaochen knows, Golden Crocodile Douluo also possesses a hundred thousand year spirit ring, so if Patriarch Xingluo really faces Golden Crocodile Douluo, he probably won't get any advantage.

Since the Star Luo Patriarch could not get away with it, Dai Yaochen had not sent the Star Luo Patriarch out since the war began. After all, the Star Luo Patriarch's current cultivation level was still a very big secret for the Star Luo Empire, and the Spirit Hall should not know about it.

Although Patriarch Xingluo had shown his strength during the previous battle with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, he was only level 97 at that time. Now that he has broken through to level 98, it is naturally a very powerful trump card. Since this trump card will not have much effect if played out at this time, Dai Yaochen will certainly not expose it. He will only do so if he is sure that Patriarch Xingluo can get a situation that is beneficial to his side after revealing his true cultivation level.

Speaking of which, the ninety-eighth level of Xingluo Patriarch's cultivation is secondary. Dai Yaochen's real strongest trump card is actually the martial soul fusion skill of Xingluo Patriarch and Youming Patriarch. The reason why the Spirit Hall sent Golden Crocodile Douluo to resist Dai Yaochen's army is obviously to resist this martial soul fusion skill.

However, because the Xingluo Empire did a good job of keeping the news secret, the Spirit Hall still believed that the Xingluo Patriarch was only at level ninety-seven. With the power of the Golden Crocodile Douluo, he should be able to barely block the spirit fusion skills of the Xingluo Patriarch and the Netherworld Patriarch. However, things did not turn out as they thought.

Now Patriarch Xingluo has reached level ninety-eight. Even if he has only improved by one level, this level is a completely different world. Although even if they are both at level ninety-eight, Patriarch Xingluo is probably not a match for Golden Crocodile Douluo, but as long as he and Patriarch Youming launch a soul fusion technique, he will probably be able to defeat Golden Crocodile Douluo.

However, if he used his strongest trump card just to defeat Golden Crocodile Douluo, the benefits would not be great, so Dai Yaochen held back and did not launch the attack. Instead, he temporarily tested the enemy's various situations.

After all, the enemy had 400,000 soldiers defending the position, so Dai Yaochen did not expect to capture them by force. He only launched a series of exploratory attacks. During these exploratory attacks, Dai Yaochen gained a deeper understanding of these 400,000 enemy troops.

Although these 400,000 enemy troops were formed by the armies of various countries, they seemed to be disorganized at first glance, and it seemed that they would easily develop various complex thoughts and chaos within them, giving the Star Luo Empire an opportunity to take advantage. However, after the Star Luo Empire launched several tentative attacks, it found that the situation was not as it had imagined.

Although the composition of this coalition of countries was very complex, they had rarely shown a firm will to resist the attack of the Star Luo Empire. There was no mutual shirking of responsibility or standing still when friendly forces were in trouble. On the contrary, they were all very active in resisting the attack of the Star Luo Empire.

This is actually very normal. The goal of the Xingluo Empire this time is to break through those kingdoms and duchies. Therefore, for those kingdoms and duchies, they are all facing the threat of national destruction. They are all grasshoppers on the same rope. How can they have the mind to intrigue? Naturally, they are extremely united and united to fight against the Xingluo Empire.

Although their will to resist was very firm, it was precisely because of this that Dai Yaochen found the flaw in the coalition forces of various countries.

You know, among the coalition forces of various countries, in addition to the armies of those kingdoms and principalities, there is also the army of the Tiandou Empire.

This time, under the order of the Spirit Hall, the Tiandou Empire dispatched 200,000 troops, which were sent to the eastern and western battlefields respectively. In other words, among the 400,000 enemy troops that Dai Yaochen faced, the Tiandou Empire's troops accounted for a full quarter.

For those kingdoms and principalities, they resisted the Xingluo Empire in order to preserve themselves and avoid being destroyed, so their will to resist was very firm. However, it was different for the Tiandou Empire. To put it bluntly, the outcome of this war did not have much impact on the Tiandou Empire.

The 100,000-strong army of the Tiandou Empire was assigned by the Spirit Hall to participate in such a war. Don’t they have any dissatisfaction?
Dai Yaochen remembered that when the Spirit Hall surrounded and suppressed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, it used the army of the Heaven Dou Empire as cannon fodder. This operation would definitely have a great impact on the morale of the Heaven Dou Empire's army.

Moreover, the Xingluo Empire had previously announced to the entire continent, exposing Qian Renxue's identity. This would certainly have had a greater impact on the morale of the Tiandou Empire's army. It is estimated that the situation within the Tiandou Empire's army is now very chaotic.

Who are they loyal to? Who are they working for? Is it worth being cannon fodder?
The army's morale is shaken, and the Star Luo Empire also has two very useful cards, Prince Snow Star and Prince Avalanche. Maybe in this war, the two of them can play a very useful role.
