Chapter 631: Chapter 402: Join the Battle as Shareholders_1

The southern border of the Wood Dynasty is heavily mountainous, stretching hundreds of miles along the border with the Nanni Nation. There are as many as fourteen mountain passes suitable for military operations. Moreover, this is a world dominated by cultivators. In areas of bleak mountains and sinister waters that are unsuitable for conventional armies, Nanni Nation cultivators often invade.

Therefore, the Flying Bear Army has built hundreds of Talisman Beacon Towers along the entire border, which can immediately notify the Flying Bear Army Camp of any enemy activity. Behind this line of Beacon Towers, the Flying Bear Army has arranged ten mobile units consisting of high-ranking cultivators, allowing them to quickly reinforce the battlefield.

Recently, materials and Spirit Jade sent from the capital have relieved the urgent needs of the Flying Bear Army. Morale among the soldiers has been high, and they have achieved consecutive victories in border conflicts. However, General Hubery of the Flying Bear Army, William, is not the least bit happy.

Despite the Imperial Court carefully blocking any news, he remains in contact with Donald Lee and knows that Donald Lee and his party have become wanted men by the Imperial Court. After this shipment of supplies, it would be difficult to get support from the Court.

William has repeatedly asked Lord Dunn for help in secret, and Lord Dunn has promised to find a way. However, William also knows Lord Dunn’s difficulties and doesn’t hold much hope.

Furthermore, since Donald Lee and his team went to the capital, the frequency and scale of provocation from the Nanni Nation have suddenly increased. Conflicts have escalated from dozens of people to over a thousand.

This has significantly increased the consumption of the Flying Bear Army. The supplies that were originally estimated to last for three months now may only last for one and a half months.

What worried William even more was the increasing proportion of Red Race cultivators in the Nanni Nation’s army.

Although the Nanni Nation was not a cause for concern in the eyes of the Flying Bear Army, they knew that on the Red Race side, there must be powerful countries no less powerful than the Wood Dynasty.

At the moment, William was looking at a map in his camp, filled with small red flags. Each flag represented a recent conflict with the Nanni Nation.

His strategist sighed, "Yesterday alone, there were fourteen battles on the front line. In the largest one, the Nanni Nation dispatched 1,500 troops. General, we can’t continue this way."

William’s hand pressed on the table, under his palm was a jade slip containing a detailed battle plan that outlined the deployment of the Flying Bear Army on two fronts, the strategy of capturing Nanni Royal City, and the marching route.

This battle plan had been completed more than a year ago, and according to William and his staff’s analysis, it had at least a 60% chance of success.

Only after losing hundreds of scouts did the Flying Bear Army finally figure out the military layout of the Nanni Nation and develop this plan.

However, it could only be stored in the jade slip, as they couldn’t afford to put it into action. The costs of mobilizing the army far exceeded the current state of defending.

But continuing to defend would be waiting for death. William sighed and, holding a glimmer of hope, said, "Get in touch with Donald Lee and ask him to inquire with the Summit Metropolitan Office if they can provide any assistance."

The strategist hesitated, "The Summit Metropolitan Office has just been established, and I heard they started from scratch. Even if they wanted to help, they might not be able to..."

"Just ask, there’s no harm in trying. We of the Flying Bear Army are really out of options."

"Yes, General."

...

A few days later, Owen Bertram finally returned to the Prescott Group at Looking Cloud Cliff. The entire Prescott Group was boiling with excitement, and their subordinates joyfully welcomed Owen back.

Owen asked about the situation in each department, the main focus, naturally, was on the movements in the Copper Gorge Extinction Domain.

This was the responsibility of David and Old Fisher. David reported truthfully, "We carry out regular extermination, and the area close to our defensive line is relatively calm. Herb gatherers can work safely, but we don’t have the power to go deep into the Extinction Domain without your presence, so the current situation is unclear."

Owen nodded, having seen the prosperity of the Spiritual Medicine Market outside the Prescott Group just now. Sitting in the Prescott Group now, he could still hear the bustling noise outside. The scale of the herb gathering teams and the Spiritual Medicine Market had both expanded a lot.

"Not bad," Owen nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Ethereal Devin, "Where are those people?"

"They have been settled in the inn at the Spiritual Medicine Market. As expected, they are all savvy businessmen. They have been roaming around the market for the past few days, already targeting some businesses."

Nowadays, the Spiritual Medicine Market is not only about the trade of spiritual medicines. With the guarantee of safety near the defensive line, demon beast hunters and miners have flocked to the Extinction Domain, which is actually a huge treasure trove.

"First, bring Donald Lee over, then arrange a banquet for tonight. I will meet them together with Donald Lee."

"Understood, I will arrange it immediately."

...

As the Commander-in-chief of the Summit Metropolitan Office and the Number One in Dragon and Snake List, Owen used his influence to invite representatives from Lannister Sect, Essence Collection, Topeka Hall, and Ocean Department.

He had arranged this before going to Lock Beach.

Owen originally thought that Leroy Baker would be the representative of the Lannister Sect, but unexpectedly, Leroy brought along a highly respected uncle from the Lannister Sect hierarchy.

Essence Collection, which had cooperated with Owen, also sent a high-ranking representative, specifically from the capital.
