Code of the Black Dragon - Chapter117

"Set it on fire?"

Luna's eyes widened. "Caesar, didn't you want to take over this place? If you set it on fire, the forest will become a barren land again."

The Green Capital's rainforest had a good ecology and was rich in resources and vegetation. However, flames were unreasonable. Once ignited and not suppressed, there would be nothing left here.

If they used this method to fight this battle, even if the Black Dragon defeated the Green Capital, he would have to find a way to rebuild it if he wanted to take root here.

Of course, Luna's words were more or less selfish. After all, as a long-lived species and an intelligent creature, she must have her own independent thoughts.

Nature could not be taken away. The Forest Fairies loved the rich rainforest. If they could live in a warm and pleasant environment, they would not stay in the dry and hot wilderness. In fact, even in a place like the Underdark, Luna would feel uncomfortable. She just kept it to herself and did not tell Caesar.

"It's okay. So what if it burns?"

As it grew bigger, Caesar could no longer touch the little guy's head. Its claws had become very large and very sharp. The sharp claws at the front were half the size of Luna's. It was easy to get into trouble if he was not careful.

Touching its head was a pleasure. He had to find a way to solve it. "You underestimate the power of Mother Earth. As long as the climate is fine, the rainforest will be restored to its original state in a hundred years."

"For us long-lived species, this is not a long time, is it?

And in the future, maybe we can use our spellcasting ability to speed up the reconstruction. "

Caesar comforted the little guy. There was nothing to discuss about this problem. In order to deal with the Green Dragon's innate ability, he had already decided to do this.

However, Luna's words did remind him that this place was the Green Dragon's home ground. The other side was prepared. If it was a surprise attack, Silvia would have the absolute advantage.

However, this advantage was only one aspect. From another perspective, Caesar could also turn Green Capital's advantage into a disadvantage.

He decided not to launch a surprise attack and canceled the Lightning Strategy. Under the circumstances where the Green Army was prepared, a direct confrontation would cause immeasurable losses. He did not want to lose all the soldiers he had won with his face in the Underdark in this war.

The original plan was for Caesar to send people to the Northern Kingdoms to spread rumors, then wait for the rumors to spread and attract the attention of Brendel's family in Kaki.

In that case, the Brendel family would not dare to openly provide aid to the Green Capital.

Thus, Caesar could make use of this time to launch a blitzkrieg war. He could not care less about losses and losses. First, he would take down Green Capital and become the king of the mountain.

In the end, the development of the situation was unexpected. What he did not expect was that Roy's family was so ruthless that they directly started a war in Laiyin Country. From then on, they were deeply involved in the quagmire and no longer had the power to extricate themselves.

In that case, considering the actual situation, the Black Dragon had a better choice.

Roy's family was stalled, and Green Capital was isolated and helpless. Caesar did not have to worry about the possibility of being attacked from both sides. Many of the restrictions were no longer there, and he could turn the Lightning Strategy into a less costly guerrilla warfare in the jungle.

The Green Capital wasn't a narrow location. Instead, with the Green Dragon Palace as the center, it was a group of forces that stretched out for dozens of miles. Countless tribes like ogres and thorn beasts lived within it, all of them loyal to the Mother of Poisons.

The other party's numbers were not fewer than his.

And this situation made Caesar know that under the Green Dragon, there must be a logistics deployment like the Wild Boar Men, responsible for production and maintaining supplies.

Otherwise, Green Capital had not fought outside for a long time. With so many monster groups, it would have been impossible to maintain for seven years. They would have killed and devoured each other long ago.

Although he didn't know what the other party's logistics department was, whether it was kobolds or troglodytes, gnomes or goblins, it did not stop them from becoming Caesar's primary targets.

Since they were providing logistics, they had to have the means of production. Green Capital needed its own production base, whether it was for planting or breeding.

But the proud Green Dragon would not let those things get in her way, so she would not place the production base near her palace. On the contrary, she would place it in the center of Green Capital. If Silvia did not pay enough attention to it, it might even appear on the edge of Green Capital. In comparison, it would be easier to find.

At this moment, Silvia had received news of the Black Dragon's attack. She had increased her vigilance, gathered her forces, and gathered her army to surround and protect the palace. In this way, her control over the surrounding areas would become less sensitive, sluggish, and weak.

Caesar planned to avoid large-scale battles as much as possible. He planned to use guerrilla warfare to harass, burn down Green Capital's fields, and plunder all the property. He would press in step by step from the outside, locking the other party within the Emerald Palace.

Green Capital's forces seemed like an iron bucket, but he wanted to see how Silvia would react in a situation where all sides were on fire.

"But, Your Majesty."

After listening to Caesar's plan, the manticore chief raised an objection. "If the Green Capital's army takes the initiative to attack while we're divided, how should we deal with it?

They can devour us one by one. "

The manticore chief's question represented the doubts of most of the clan leaders.

"Remember my words, avoid fighting with the enemy's main forces. The essence of guerrilla warfare is: fast, short, and ruthless. I want you to nibble away at the enemy's forces one by one."

After reminding the manticore chief, Caesar ordered, "The Black Dragon's army will be divided into four, so I want you to build four underground camps like this. They must be sufficiently hidden so that my soldiers can avoid the enemy's search at critical moments. Can you do it?"

"This is a piece of cake for the ankhegs, my Master."

The leader of the Ankhegs said in admiration. The Ankhegs did indeed look like giant yellow insects. They had six slender legs with sharp claws at the end. Their small heads had powerful jaws that could easily snap trees and gnaw through rocks.

They relied on their legs and jaws to dig the ground. Digging was their innate ability, and this was where the name ankhegs came from.

"Yes, Nero."

The Black Dragon then turned to the demon dogs. "I want you to leave behind a smart and vigilant demon dog in each unit."

"I will choose one for you, my King." The demon dog chief nodded.

"Your clan members have amazing hearing and can rely on howls to transmit information. However, I will only allow you to do so in critical situations, such as when the Green Dragon appears."

Caesar comforted his subordinates. "If the Green Dragon appears, I will rush over as soon as I receive the news."

In fact, Caesar couldn't wait for Silvia to leave the Emerald Palace and take the initiative to attack his branch forces.

If she dares to appear, I will wring her head off.
