Lorenzo saw Ackley, who had just arrived last, and said, "I think Minister Wang's plan is correct. Many of you have never experienced a war where the enemy is strong and we are weak. In the face of a disadvantage in strength, we cannot expect to be all-round, but can only do our best to ensure effective combat."
"But what if the enemy saints come to destroy our defenseless cities and towns?"
"Our major cities have built such defenses in the past two years. If they really don't attack important cities, but attack those small towns, they are actually wasting their time and energy on places that have no strategic significance and economic benefits." Ackley said.
"But it won't take too much time for a saint to destroy a town, right?" someone else asked.
Liu Yisheng, who was beside Lorenzo, said at this time: "Saints are not as scary as some people think. They are human beings after all. They need to eat and rest. Without the support of magic, their bodies are not much stronger than ordinary people. If saints fall asleep, even children may kill them. If they really focus their energy on these places, I suggest that Minister Wang launch a guerrilla war and use a small number of elite soldiers to distract the energy of those saints. If you are lucky, you may gain something.
In any world I have experienced in the past, when we encountered the God City, we did not have as many saints as we do now. But in most worlds, we successfully dealt with the God City by guerrilla warfare, and trained a group of great warriors. Of course, the cost of doing so is also very high. Every time, a large area of land has been turned into wasteland because of this guerrilla warfare. "
Wang Jiyuan on the stage said: "This is exactly what I want to say. We can use the team to deal with the saints of the city. However, we should not wait until they start to destroy our villages and towns and kill our citizens before considering counterattacks. Instead, we should launch an attack before they do, and let our own team attack the natural temples everywhere first!"
"Take the initiative?" The whole audience was shocked when they heard this.
But Lorenzo and Liu Yisheng fell into thinking, and Lorenzo felt that this method was feasible. From a personal point of view, he did not like to be beaten passively.
Wang Jiyuan said: "You have all seen the previous intelligence. The people from the City of Gods have discovered that the power of the temples in this era is not really completely loyal to the God of Nature, so they are eager to eliminate internal opposition and take over the power of the Temple of Nature. But they have a big weakness, that is, they have nothing except high-end combat power such as saints. And seeing that so many temple priests and the God of Nature are not of the same mind, they certainly cannot trust others. This will lead to a result: the twenty-nine people in the City of Gods must rely on themselves to conquer the entire Temple of Nature system."
"You mean, their strength will be dispersed?" Gabriel asked.
"Yes. According to intelligence, the commander of the City of God, Dominic, is both impatient and arrogant. He wants to conquer many natural temples at the same time in a short period of time. But he has only 28 people under his command. Even if they are divided into groups of two, they cannot cover all the branches of the natural temples. So the number of people sent to each temple must be very small. From the experience of Lorenzo and Ganuo in the past few days, it can be seen that each group of them is composed of two to three people." Wang Jiyuan continued to analyze, "It takes only two or three people to control a temple with dozens to hundreds of priests, and also control the temple guards stationed nearby. They even have to deal with the more elite Temple Knights. It is definitely not a simple matter to handle.
Therefore, after these saints were sent out, they would definitely have to spend a lot of time in the local area to achieve results and integrate the power of the Temple of Nature. They not only had to win over the hearts of the people and build a team, but also had to extinguish the wave of opposition before they could truly control the power of those temple subordinates.
This gives us a good opportunity. The scattered saints of the Divine City are for us to defeat one by one."
"What do you want to do?" Liu Yisheng asked.
"I want to divide the eight saints into four groups. Each group will be led by two saints, plus four to five master-level experts, forming a six to seven-person team. They will go to various natural temples and assassinate those saints. The remaining masters will be responsible for the defense of the main cities."
"It sounds like we don't have an advantage in numbers. We might even be at a disadvantage of two to three," Ackley said.
Wang Jiyuan said: "We have three chances. First, according to Liu Yisheng's experience, this amount of time is not enough for these saints to recover to their peak state. Their strength is greatly reduced. Second, we are in the dark and can use sneak attacks to deal with them. Third, some of our great magicians are much stronger than their peers and are not incapable of fighting against the saints."
Liu Yisheng nodded and said, "A seal of several thousand years is a very long time. Except for some extremely powerful saints, most of them may be lucky to recover to 60% to 70% of their strength. Several saints I killed in other worlds said unwillingly before they died that they were completely unable to exert their true strength."
Wang Jiyuan said: "The more critical issue is that the first and second attacks are the easiest for us to succeed. After the two attacks, they start to be alert, and it will not be so easy for us to succeed. Our strategy should be to spread out the team as much as possible during the first attack. After that, when they start to shrink, we can also concentrate the team."
Liu Yisheng raised his lips and tapped the table with his fingers, saying, "I think we can give it a try. I have killed many of them many times. With the information you have collected, I can even write a strategy."
Gabriel also smiled and said, "Countless natural saints have died under the arms of our God of War. My sword has a natural restraint on natural mages, and some of my skills are prepared for them."
Mo Yu said: "Gawain and I have killed many, and we can kill more."
Saint Yvette of the Sword Tower behind her said, "After thousands of years, we can finally continue the work of our ancestors. I feel it is an honor."
Wang Jiyuan's eyes fell on Lorenzo. Lorenzo shrugged and said, "If I don't kill them, they will kill me anyway. What else can I say?"
Wang Jiyuan said, "Very good, let's start with you. It's best to have a warrior to protect you when you set up the magic circle. We will assign Kalanda to your group, and take Lin Lichuan, Maya, Di Ning, and Ganuo who are going to pick you up this time, to form the Qinglong team."
