Seeing Chen Xin readily agree, Lin Zhan shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Chen Xin, you'll go to the armory tomorrow. My grandpa Lin Xiang will take you directly to the secret realm to find my father. He's currently forming the heavy artillery legion. You can also get detailed data yourself."
"Got it, boss. I was waiting for you to say that. If my sister hadn't told me you'd researched these two new weapons, I wouldn't have come back. I'll head over first thing tomorrow," Chen Xin said cheerfully.
Lin Zhan turned to Lin Xiang and said, "Grandpa Xiang, I'll trouble you to take care of Chen Xin tomorrow. Bring some supplies too, and bring plenty of drinks and food."
Lin Xiang nodded and said, "Don't worry, Zhan'er. I'll keep an eye on the armory. You don't need to worry. You should go take care of your own business."
Others might not know, but everyone present understood very well that Lin Zhan had put the entire Lin family on the line for this battle. If they lost, not to mention anything else, all the men in the Lin family, except for the women, would likely perish on the battlefield. This forced Lin Zhan to be extremely cautious.
Lin Zhan saw that the armory arrangements were complete and then said to Jiang Zheng, "Old Jiang, tomorrow have Old Ancestor Liu Che take you to find Old Ancestor Han Xin and the others. Explain these matters to the old ancestors in detail. Try to get them to guarantee the training of soldiers and the production of weapons while also expanding the army."
"Also, this time the Ten Thousand Races Allied Army will definitely send Royal Legions, even Imperial Legions, as well as heavy cavalry and highly mobile units. This battle of ours might get stuck in a stalemate for a long time, so small-scale skirmishes are bound to be inevitable."
Jiang Zheng nodded and said after careful consideration, "So when you, Old Lin, had this idea, you formed the Modao Army right away. And then you sent Old Ancestor Wei Qing and Old Ancestor Huo Qubing to prepare for guerrilla warfare and cavalry against the Ten Thousand Races Allied Army."
Lin Zhan nodded, "That's right, I considered all these things back then."
"I originally didn't plan to fight so quickly. According to my original plan, I was preparing 50 to 60 million troops. Based on the usual behavior of the Ten Thousand Races Allied Army, they could prepare around 200 million at most. With the advantage of our new weapons, it wouldn't be difficult to defeat this allied army."
"But this time, after returning from the Ancestral Court, I thought for three days and finally understood. The Ten Thousand Races Allied Army has already suffered a small defeat last time. If we defeat another 200 million of their troops this time, they will definitely not give up and will launch simultaneous attacks on various battlefields in a short period. This is where our human race's troop shortage will become apparent."
Lin Zhan took a sip of water and explained in detail to everyone, "If this happens, the best plan for our human race would be to abandon some smaller plane battlefields, consolidate our defenses, and retreat to the mother planet through the Great Wall formation."
"At that time, the Ten Thousand Races will concentrate their military strength to attack our few large-scale battlefields and the main battlefield with the Ten Thousand Races. Once this situation occurs, the overall war situation will become very passive for us, and the major main force legions of the human race and our ace legions will suffer heavy casualties."
"Our new weapons, after their first use, although the Ten Thousand Races will not have a solution in a short period, they will definitely change their combat methods based on the shortcomings of our new weapons."
"Once the overall war situation enters a stalemate, the Ten Thousand Races Allied Army will use their numerical advantage to continuously launch wave after wave of attacks on our forward positions on several battlefields until all humans retreat to the mother planet."
"Especially if the war situation becomes passive, the luck of the human race will recover slowly, affecting the revival of the old ancestors. Then we will truly be close to extinction."
"So, why don't we, relying on the powerful combat strength of the Human Emperor ancestors, directly break through some small and medium-sized battlefields, annihilate some races, concentrate our forces, and engage in a large-scale battle with the Ten Thousand Races Allied Army on this main battlefield? This will not only sacrifice the luck of the human race and allow more ancestors to revive, but also inflict a devastating blow on the Ten Thousand Races Allied Army."
"Agreed."
"Agreed, I think Old Lin's plan is feasible."
"No questions, boss. We'll do as you say."
Jiang Zheng pondered for a moment and added, "Our new weapons will catch the Ten Thousand Races Allied Army off guard the moment the battle begins, and we will achieve great victories. So, as long as there are no major mistakes in this battle, it should be fine."
"What remains is that after this battle, we will still be in a stalemate with the Ten Thousand Races that will last for several years. Therefore, we must accumulate enough luck for the human race's Emperor-level ancestors to revive in this battle. If necessary, we can consider expanding the results. So, our top priority is still the issue of troop shortage."
Lin Zhan looked at everyone's determined eyes, stood up, and said sternly, "Then brothers, I will begin assigning tasks."
"Jiang Zheng, from today onwards, you will be responsible for the establishment of various new legions. You can consult with the heads of each legion and have the authority to decide on the formation of troop types." After speaking, he handed a black bird carving to Jiang Zheng.
"Old Jiang, my Great Shang's black bird carving has the authority to summon the Black Bird Army. I'll leave this matter to you."
"Zhang Haoming, you will be responsible for the resource allocation, welfare distribution, and military expenditure for all departments including the legions, armories, and weapons research institutes. Zhang Haoqing, Zhang Haoxuan, and Zhang Haozhe will assist you."
"Leng Shan, in this war against the Ten Thousand Races, the Leng family's war hounds will be one of the main forces of our human race. Old Leng, you must control this aspect well. I will also prepare 50 million dog spirit pills for you. At the same time, the Leng family will be responsible for providing coordinates for our long-range strikes using reconnaissance flying spirit pets."
"Zhang Cong, return to your family and gradually rebuild the Water Ghost special operations brigade. There are no limits on the number of people, the more the merrier. After your Zhang family, our human race will no longer have anyone who can contend with the Water Race in water battles. I'll be counting on you for this."
"Don't worry, Old Lin, we brothers won't let you down," Zhang Cong and Leng Shan replied.
"The Ten Thousand Races battlefield is arranged for now. Next is our side," Lin Zhan said after a moment's thought.
"Old Xiao, Old Bai, use your influence to fully monitor the United States Special Zone. Pay attention to the other special zones as well."
"Old He, Er Zhuang, Old Meng, you three families will fully assist Old Ancestor Li Bai in quickly controlling all the underground forces on the mother planet. We must ensure that when we are directly confronting the Ten Thousand Races Allied Army, there are no internal disturbances at home."
The few people who heard Lin Zhan's words nodded seriously.
The few kings on the side looked at everyone's performance and nodded with relief: Well, the children have grown up.
