Chapter 995: Trial

certain level, it can be incorporated into elixir and refined into the elixir of immortality. You may come closer."Lu Cheng moved slightly closer.The elixir hovered above the jade platform, and Lu Che...This means that Lu Cheng possesses tremendous research value in Yunwai's laboratory.

This is just like having a fragment of an immortal's cultivation technique laid out before you, with irresistible allure.

Lu Cheng of course must support continuing to hold the line.

Before the crisis comes, time, domain, element, and physics must be fully rule-chained!

Once there is a training regimen, Lu Cheng believes that it will be forever.

But Lu Cheng's advisors keenly realized that there might be a huge divergence of interests within the alliance on this matter.

Because Lu Cheng's scientific research experiments... are actually unrelated to allies.

It is equivalent to the Whale Clan and the Sandy Domain having to pay a huge price to protect the research value of their allies, even going so far as to execute a battle plan that is destined to result in heavy losses.

For the cetaceans and sand dwellers, in the end, all that was left besides some fuel from the clouds and a growing alliance of allies.

If Lu Cheng had money, he could immediately pay to make up for it.

But the problem is, supporting the Yun'e War from behind is already very difficult. What can we offer

As for the promise

How much is the promised amount.......

To what extent will they ultimately go to secure the interests of their allies

.......

The Maynier administrator is quite worried.

The heavy casualties and low returns on the front lines have led to constant disputes in the Damascus Parliament, making for a very unpleasant spectacle.

This battle cost the sand domain a lot of elite ground troops, and a large amount of transport capacity. The condolences were a huge expense.

Now that the enemy's state is like a cloud of mist, wanting to make it a lose-lose situation, from the perspective of profit, avoiding the edge for now is a better choice.

If we keep going, even our wallets won't be able to take it anymore.

Many people believe that Shaoyu is just a small player and should know when to step back. They should maintain friendly relations with the two giants in trade and economy, but gradually distance themselves militarily.

It is best to become a member of the alliance in terms of trade and economy, while maintaining military independence.

Because after all, since joining the alliance, besides the vague so-called protection of void weapons, there's nothing at all.

Actually, they're not wrong to think that.

The Taiyin Trade Station in the Northern Expanse of Jiuyu does not export civilian products.

One is because the Beiming Army originally only had Gao Xing military industry....

Secondly, the Dragon Palace's production capacity is simply not enough. Ensuring military supplies for the Exploration Whale team is already an overload.

Only high-ranking card masters who hold the Military Legion cards know how earth-shattering the changes in the Sandstorm Legion over the past hundred years have been. Card masters who control economic cards, luxury brand cards, or industrial product cards don't feel the same way. Their lives go on as usual.

Mrs. Manley looked down, her eyes fixed on the embroidered phoenix on her skirt.

The commotion of the surrounding arguments did not reach her ears.

After dozens of seconds, she nodded and glanced at Menier.

He man was rubbing his temples........with a worried expression.

"Honey, have a glass of water," she said with a gentle smile.

"Not thirsty." Meniere shook his head. "What do you think"

"The Battle of the Sand Dunes... you and I have both experienced it. What did you feel" Mrs. Meniel said seriously.

Melanie crossed her arms over her chest and leaned back slightly, lost in thought during the meeting.

...unable to understand.......

"I don't understand......Well, that's just how it feels." Meini turned her head and said, "Nothing was done, nothing happened, and it's already over"

"Look at this," Mrs. Minnerly said, pulling a card from the deck that materialized into a book.

Minnelli, staring intently at "The Conquest of the Egyptian-Arabian Border World".

"Well, my lady, have you taken an interest in this lately" Meniere smiled faintly.

"It's not that bad either, look at page seventy-four, it describes the history of the Sandstorm - 6 war.... " Flipping through the pages, a distinct smell of paper filled the air.

Actually, it's not accurate to say that the Taiyin Star can't buy daily necessities.

There are still paper used for various types of books.

Paper products unique to the Nine Domains, with a higher information capacity per card than parchment, silk, or leaves...

"Egypt-Arabian Frontier Warfare", a renowned historical work by the Sha'ara historian Abdurrahman.

It records the large-scale war in the Egyptian-Arab time (referring to the expanded version of the world copy) and the real tabletop.

The evidence is meticulous, and it's an absolute masterpiece.

Meniere has also seen it, but this only records the history after the war, most of which he experienced firsthand, so there's nothing much to read.

Chapter Six, Satori-6: Three Armies Contend...

This segment of war history occurred during the period of vying for power. At that time, the Sand Zone - 6 was blockaded by the Whale Clan's spatial domain, the Star Supervision Bureau was in decline, and coupled with the negative impact of peasant uprisings, the central table's influence had spiraled out of control.

The three major warlords of the Sand Dunes fought for over sixty years during this period.

“This sixty-year period of history, of course, took place during the blockade, and the book is rather vague about it. However, I later sent Jeb to investigate on the ground, and I also went there myself to conduct a detailed investigation. We discovered....... There are very few factual accounts of this period of warfare.”

"What do you mean" Meniere asked in confusion, "Every old man who has lived through this history speaks of it with certainty...."

But the capitals, armies...and even supplies of the three major warlords could only be guessed at.

"It's probably severely damaged, isn't it" Menier said with a smirk. "Aren't there some cultural relic plaques"

"Some of it is false, and I wouldn't say." Mrs. Meniere shook her head slightly.

"Madam, what on earth are you trying to say You're being so cryptic. Can one person fool a single individual A million, even ten million"

"No." Mrs. Menier moved a little closer. "I have a feeling, somehow, that something from sixty years ago has been placed in the Sector-6."

"You should rest, you're seeing things..."

"Honey, listen to me, you absolutely cannot break away from the military alliance, no matter how difficult it gets...."

“I know, I'm familiar with my fellow villagers, we've chatted before, but.... take a look, listen...."

Opposite them, two groups of people were grappling with each other, their faces flushed red.

“I don't care what they say.......The weapons the locals described are beyond our understanding, but I'm too uneasy. I feel like the presence above us is no longer within our comprehension, it's not just a simple fleet, something that mechanized armor soldiers can fight against. Neither the Alliance commanders nor future enemies will be able to handle this.......”

"Well, looks like I'll have to bleed my family deck again. Let's do our best."

........

........

Every military alliance's first somewhat unsuccessful war seems like an exam, testing each member.

After Lu Cheng's opinion was put forward, unexpectedly, the Whale Clan directly agreed to increase investment and continue fighting in Yun'ai.

These big fish were naturally warlike and unwilling to use their brains. That's exactly what barbarians are like!

Since the mother-in-law said she still needed time, the princess said, "Alright!"

Then those who have kids can only grit their teeth and bear it.

The attitude of Shayu has yet to come, it seems there is indeed a disagreement.

At that time, the ancillary clauses given by Lu Cheng were relatively lenient, with basically no mandatory clauses.

From Lu Cheng's perspective, although Sha Yu is relatively weak, a mutually beneficial relationship can still be achieved.

Diplomacy is like that, it's mostly about business, not emotions. Back then, we were able to negotiate several treaties with someone like the treacherous Wang Lei Ting, a real spineless loser. Even Sha Yu could be considered a friend.

At least in his own opinion, he gets along better with Jeb, the Egyptian engineering student.

Mei Ni and Wei are good friends. Mei Ni often boasts, but Wei likes him anyway.

Moreover, as we are both members of the human race, we can probably understand each other better.

From the perspective of production relations, the two sides are essentially engaged in equal trade.

The Dragon Palace's industrial materials have all been replaced with gold sand, sandstone, and fuel. It is indeed very necessary for the population and market of six planets in the Sand Domain.

If these supplies were missing, it wouldn't be a life-or-death situation, but it would be quite uncomfortable.

In terms of military capabilities, the Sand Zone is at an absolute disadvantage.

Trade agreements are indeed imbalanced. It's impossible for Landholders to trade frontline equipment cards with them, but this would be impossible anywhere.

When it comes to the Arms Control Treaty, Lu Cheng has already thrown it away once, and that was when he was in very poor condition. He didn't even hesitate.

It can also be said that it's done the best.

Of course, in the Cloud & Mist War, Lu Cheng didn't have any army cards on the table, Shayu truly exerted himself.

But at present, due to the deployment of new troops in gaseous form, the cost of holding on is high as all parties are suffering heavy losses.

For a junior to fight a seemingly hopeless war for you, how deep would the friendship have to be

It is perfectly normal for there to be dissenting voices.

From every angle, Lu Cheng is very much hoping that Sha Yu will not choose neutrality or other strategies because of this difficulty.

But if the Sand Region cannot withstand heavy casualties and wants to withdraw from this operation or even the military alliance, Lu Cheng will not object. This is human nature.

I don't have much money on hand right now, so I can't promise many immediate benefits.

Let's hope for a good outcome.f the Shang and Zhou dynasties, then I will lend a helping hand to the disciples of the Intercepting Sect who serve the Shang Dynasty!"Having finished speaking, the spirit of Gui Ling Sheng Mu transfo...
