Chapter 973 - Big Strokes
As the Queen of England said to Black Widow in the garden of Buckingham Palace, there are still many people who are watching Lu Yao's next move when he landed on the Apennine Peninsula.
Among them, Thomas attaches great importance to it, and even does not hesitate to urge every minute to send back the latest information from various intelligence channels in the shortest possible time.
And at this time, the Xanadu army moved.
Beyond everyone's expectations, instead of approaching Naples with troops close at hand, the Xanadu Army approached the city of Rome further, but turned south, not even Pompeii, which had just been captured.
Thomas received the latest situation as he wished, but the whole person seemed to have lost his soul, and stayed for at least half an hour, seeing that the Flame Baron and others were suddenly unhappy, but unfortunately no matter how tossed, Thomas never reacted.
More than half an hour later, Thomas raised his head, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and shook his head bitterly: "There is no hope, he has won again." ”
The crowd was in an uproar.
I love Black Widow ranting, "It's impossible, it's a trick he's playing." His real target must be Naples. ”
The crowd agreed.
Blatantly go south, wait until everyone thinks that the Xanadu army will capture the southern part of the Apennine Peninsula, and then suddenly change the route all the way to the north, and take the other side by surprise. This tactical deception is not without examples.
Thomas shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Don't you see it yet?" ”
"See what?"
The crowd didn't understand, and their eyes fell on Thomas's face again. There were doubts in their eyes, but they didn't interrupt on the spot, and even the most excited I love Black Widow closed her mouth at this time, waiting for Thomas's answer.
"He gave up Pompeii."
Thomas spat out the words word by word, followed by a wry smile: "This is his most brilliant point." With the fact that he had completely abandoned Pompeii, he told Europa that he had no interest in Europa, but only came to avenge Caesar for betraying him. ”
When it comes to this, no one is still confused. They are all carefully cultivated spokesmen of various families, and they may not be professional enough for war, but they still have vision.
Thomas's words have answered the doubts in their hearts. It can be said that based on this alone, the forces of the countries in the Europa region will not regard the Xanadu Army as their biggest enemy. The practical effect is that no matter how big the Xanadu Army is on the Apennine Peninsula, no countries will come forward, or they will not oppose it so obviously.
Thomas, however, said again, as if he were speechless: "Do you think he went south to the Apennines just to vent his anger like a child?" No, his purpose is more than that. ”
Everyone was stunned.
The importance of intelligence is well known to all. Long before the game was launched, no matter how big or small, this was arranged. America is one of the best, and its intelligence system is quite well-built.
Because of this, it is not a secret that Lu Yao encouraged Cleopatra to send 300,000 troops to join forces to go north to the Apennine Peninsula. After all, Lu Yao's target was the Roman Empire, and Cleopatra was overwhelmed by the Roman Empire, so it was not incomprehensible to take the opportunity to join forces with Lu Yao to take revenge on the Roman Empire.
Now Cleopatra's 300,000-strong Egyptian army is wreaking havoc on Sicily, where can she care about things on the Apennine Peninsula.
From this point of view, what is the purpose of the Xanadu Army moving south?
Want to take the opportunity to grab a port as a foothold? Impossible, if this is the case, why did the Xanadu sailors attack Palermo first, and then Pompeii, and then turn south to grab the port.
Seeing that everyone still didn't understand, Thomas shook his head and said, "His purpose is to deal with those oil tyrants." ”
When the words fell, everyone suddenly boiled, and no one wanted to believe this fact. That sounds ridiculous. In that case, why bother making such a big detour and landing directly on the Apennine Peninsula with those oil tyrants?
Thomas: "......" really can't take it, I'm so tired.
For the sake of the bigger picture, he explained in detail: "This is where his genius lies. First of all, he used the army of 300,000 Egyptian NPCs to attract our attention, so that everyone thought that he was still the same as we knew about him, and hated working with the player. ”
"Frankly, do you think an army of 300,000 Egyptian NPCs is terrifying?" Thomas asked rhetorically, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.
No one said a word.
To be reasonable, no one thinks that NPCs can be much of a threat now, except for the countries that have been suppressed by the Roman Empire. The player is the real master of this stage.
An army of 300,000 NPCs, that's also a thing?
Thomas said categorically: "So, he took advantage of the inertia of our thinking and put a layer of camouflage on his true intentions. I believe that by this time, the fleet of those oil tycoons has been launched. When his army reaches Taranto Bay in the southern part of the Apennine Peninsula, it will join forces with the oil tycoons. ”
Hearing this, everyone changed color.
Sitting here listening to Thomas's analysis, I don't think it's a big deal, but I'm afraid there aren't many people who really see the intentions of the Xanadu Army. Based on the first point Thomas just mentioned, I'm afraid no one is willing to stop the Xanadu Army's "revenge".
Once the army of the oil tyrants lands on the Apennine Peninsula, with the player's war potential and the strength of the Xanadu army, I am afraid that the entire Apennine Peninsula will not be able to make a pill.
At this time, as if intent on striking them, Thomas again made the third point: "This is not the worst case. I am more worried that the Hebrew Empire will intervene as well. ”
Everyone was stunned again, what is the matter with the Hebrew Empire? Those NPCs have long since declined, okay.
"No, this time he's targeting the Roman Empire, not us." The Flame Baron's face changed suddenly.
Thomas smiled with relief, and finally someone else saw this. The Hebrew Empire was the territory of the Jews. Although this NPC empire has declined, and only the region-mandated setting of the system remains, it cannot be denied.
The place of the Hebrew Empire in the minds of Jewish players.
Who is the richest group in the world? Jewish bloc.
No one can deny the genius of the Jews, who, although not of high status, possess considerable wealth. Even the Morgan and Rockefeller consortments have Jews behind them.
Well, let's not mention these two main representatives. In this era of global reshuffle, is it difficult to understand that Jews seek to fight for their rights?
As a result, the Hebrew Empire became the most suitable stand-in for Jewish players.
There was already a contradiction between the Roman Empire and the Hebrew Empire, and the shrewd Jews could bear it when they saw the cheapness of the Apennine Peninsula?
The situation has reached this point, and it is not only Zhuya and Egypt that are involved, but also the oil tyrants, Jewish players, and so on.
Thinking about this, everyone was stupid.
Nima's soul is really capable of doing things, and if he doesn't move, he will bring so many forces together.
Roman Empire pills.
