Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Let's prove the effectiveness of the Silver Dragon Spear!

Gu Yuena remained calm. "Everyone has seen it; this is the function of the Silver Dragon Spear. I will immediately hand over this video footage to the command center for analysis. This is the absolute first-hand information about the Abyss Passage that our Spirit Pagoda can currently obtain."

The satellites couldn't see anything below the far north because the sky was completely obscured by a thick, dark gray fog. Gu Yuena was right; this was the first truly meaningful reconnaissance mission.

Some reconnaissance planes had been sent before, but all of them never returned. This footage is indeed invaluable for the war.

"This information is indeed very valuable and will be of great benefit to our next operation," said Dong Zian, the Wolf Douluo, sitting in the first seat on the right.

This person's voice was strange; it sounded very hoarse and rather unpleasant.

Dong Zian chuckled. "It's good that there's a core. Besides, our current soul-guiding technology is far superior to what it was six thousand years ago. All energy has its own energy structure, and abyssal energy is no exception. I simply don't believe these abyssal creatures can withstand our latest technology."

At this moment, Yu Guanzhi frowned and said, "General Dong, you can't say that. We've tested almost all our advanced weapons on the abyssal creatures, and so far, none of them have been able to effectively kill them."

Gu Yuena had already put away her Silver Dragon Spear and stepped aside.

Dong Zian said, "That's simple. It seems the specific battle plan needs to be revised."

Yu Guanzhi frowned slightly, his eyes clearly showing some hostility.

"Changing the plan now will waste even more time. Let's stick to the original plan. Every second we don't discuss this now could mean another soldier dying on the front lines. This young lady is certainly key, but she can only alleviate the situation, not be the main one. Do you really think one person can change this war?" Yu Guanzhi said in a deep voice.

Dong Zi'an said bluntly, "Commander-in-Chief, we must face reality. As you said, our current weapons cannot inflict substantial damage on the abyssal creatures. We must make full use of Miss Gu Yuena and make her the core of this battle."

"You..." Yu Guanzhi's face was filled with anger. This was the second time Dong Zi'an had contradicted him. As the commander-in-chief of the Federal Army, one of the top three military leaders, how could he not be furious?

Dong Zian's fierce eyes flashed, but he showed no fear as he met Yu Guanzhi's gaze.

They had always been at odds, and Dong Zi'an harbored deep resentment towards Yu Guanzhi. The Western Army Corps had consistently ranked behind the Central Army Corps, always second to the Army Corps, and the two sides were not even on the same side.

Yu Guanzhi is a typical scion of a wealthy family. He received the best education from a young age, was a favored son of heaven, and had a smooth and successful career, eventually rising to a high position.

Unlike him, Dong Zi'an came from a commoner background and built everything he had through hard work and perseverance. He accumulated military merits and eventually became a legion commander.

Therefore, in every respect, they represent an inherent incompatibility.

"Alright. What are you two arguing about?" Chen Xinjie said, frowning.

Having been temporarily recalled from the Blood God front, he was in a bad mood.

Dong Zian opened his mouth, about to say something, but Yin Moshang tugged at his sleeve, causing him to swallow back the words that were about to come out.

Chen Xinjie said calmly, "Guanzhi, tell us your plan first, and we can discuss it together."

Within the military, Chen Xinjie not only held a high position but also held the highest seniority. Among all the generals present, except for Yue Tian Douluo Guan Yue, almost everyone else was considered his nephew or niece.

Yu Guanzhi composed himself and stopped looking at Dong Zian. "The operation is arranged as follows. The three major fleets—the Poseidon Legion, the Northern Navy Legion, and the Eastern Navy Legion—will deploy all their mech divisions to land to cooperate with the army and provide fire support. After we determine their positions, the three major fleets will first conduct a carpet bombing of the Abyss Army. Then, the air force will conduct another carpet bombing. During this process, Miss Gu Yuena will need to be under protection, wielding the Silver Dragon Spear at the front line, to absorb as much Abyss energy as possible generated by the death of Abyss creatures, thereby weakening them."

"Meanwhile, ground troops are advancing, establishing defensive lines layer by layer. With fire support, they are to complete the siege of the abyss passage as quickly as possible. They are to maintain continuous, intense bombardment and suppress the enemy with heavy firepower."

"The bombing plan is divided into three rounds, each conducted in rotation by the navy and air force. After the three rounds of bombing, the army will enter to clear the battlefield and seal the passage. The army will be led by the Central Legion, which is equipped with heavy ion weapons, with other legions providing support. It will be a full-scale offensive. At that time, we also request the cooperation of the Soul Masters from all major organizations to entangle the powerful beings in the Abyss Plane."

"Our strategy is to first entangle the powerful beings of the Abyss plane and severely damage the low- to mid-level Abyss creatures, then turn our attention back to the powerful ones and kill them as much as possible. Then we will seal the Abyss passage."

"This is the overall strategy, and there are still many details to be worked out in its specific implementation. The General Staff has already completed the full planning and detailed organization of these matters. All orders will be issued to the various units as soon as possible."

This battle plan was clearly the result of careful consideration.

The role of Gu Yuena was clearly added by this shrewd and experienced veteran.

Dong Zi'an is absolutely right about one thing: compared to six thousand years ago, soul-guided technology has advanced tremendously, with a wide variety of weapons of mass destruction. Moreover, concentrating the entire Federation army's forces is equivalent to concentrating all their weaponry. This kind of blanket bombing could easily last for three days and three nights.

In this process, the most important thing is not to kill the opponent, but to weaken the opponent.

Yu Guanzhi continued, "Throughout the entire operation, the most crucial element is Miss Gu Yuena's Silver Dragon Spear absorbing abyssal energy. Therefore, we must preserve two Limit Douluo-level fighters to protect her."

"I agree." No matter how fierce the artillery fire, unless it's a god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannon, it's still unlikely to injure a powerhouse at the level of a Limit Douluo.

It's perfectly fine for two Limit Douluos to protect Gu Yuena.

The battle plan was straightforward, but undoubtedly the most effective. It clearly demonstrated the immense importance of the Northern Legion's sacrifices. If the abyssal creatures hadn't been confined to the far north, the situation would now be one of utter chaos.

Even if the sacrifice is enormous...

The next step is to discuss the details of the overall combat operation.
