Chapter 966: The Great War Ends
Actually, if you are serious, you can't say that those guys who run fast are stupid. Vertex X23US
Because the sustained combat capability of the flying unit is indeed limited, it can only fight for several hours in a row.
And the previous series of battles had almost exhausted their physical strength, so they couldn't fight endlessly.
At most, they will eat the slower runners in the back, and then they will have to rest.
And while they are resting, the flying battleship that can continue to fly, I am afraid that it will have escaped long ago, and I don't know how many thousands of miles.
When the time comes, they can change direction or cast some hidden spells, and they may be able to shake off their pursuers and escape safely.
Obviously, their thinking is not wrong, it can even be said that it is very shrewd and reasonable.
But the problem is that they obviously underestimated the abilities of Emperor Shi Tian and Princess Lionheart.
First of all, let's talk about Emperor Shi Tian, this guy's ability to garrison soldiers is simply invincible in the world.
Although this war produced so many troops in one go, it was actually not all of his hole cards.
As an excellent commander, Emperor Shi Tian retains reserves at all times, and they are a large number of reserves, and he never does stupid things with all his strength anyway.
Therefore, the troops that have been fighting for a long time are only a part of all his troops, and even if these people are resting, Emperor Shi Tian can still take out a new force to continue to participate in the war.
It's a big deal to let those resting troops turn into reserves, anyway, the situation is very good now, and there is no possibility of the enemy turning the tables, so it is completely possible to let the reserves rest first.
It is also worth mentioning Princess Lionheart's command ability.
On the surface, Princess Lionheart turned a blind eye to the fleeing creatures, as if she had really let them go.
But in fact, it is not that simple, Princess Lionheart has already sent a professional reconnaissance team, staring at those who have escaped.
Ordinary warships are just a few scouts who are good at stealth.
However, those more powerful seven-masted battleships will be stared at by more professional people, and there is even no shortage of capable people in the space department.
In short, all the warships here have been regarded as their own by Emperor Shi Tian and Princess Lionheart, and they will not be allowed to escape no matter what.
The guys who ran away in front just thought they had escaped, but in fact they would still be caught eventually.
In short, what followed was a very exciting chase battle, and since the number of opponents was really large, Emperor Shi Tian could not end the battle in a short time.
It took nearly a week for Princess Lionheart to capture the last ship to escape.
In order to speed up the speed of capturing the warship, Princess Lionheart simply used the power of the legendary level after consulting Emperor Shitian.
Of course, it's not Yaslian and Aladdin, who are the top masters, they still have their own things to do, and it is impossible to overdo it here.
But those mass-produced space mage ** faces belong to the guys who can be mobilized by Princess Lionheart at will.
With the intervention of these legendary powerhouses, the capture efficiency of the flying battleship suddenly became extremely high.
After all, space mages can teleport, and they carry some elite troops to teleport.
In this way, even if a battleship runs far away, it will be caught up by them in an instant.
Then they only need to entangle a little, and the follow-up army will come quickly.
With the Void Dragon, which can be called a cheating class, the mobility of Emperor Shitian's army is simply explosive, tens of thousands of troops, at a distance of more than 100,000 kilometers, almost instantaneously.
As long as there are precise coordinates in front of it, the Void Dragon can carry out continuous teleportation.
All in all, with the help of these legendary masters, the battle went extremely smoothly, and the curtain came to an end in just one week.
The next step is to clean up the battlefield, dispose of the loot, and count the casualties.
Eventually, Emperor Shi Tian got a report.
In this battle, Emperor Shitian's side dispatched a total of nearly 70 million troops, of which more than 3 million were killed and more than 10 million were wounded, and the material losses were not counted!
Basically, about 4/5 of the war materials that had been desperately accumulated in the past year were consumed all at once.
There is no way, Emperor Shitian's troops are actually not too strong in themselves, most of them are only black iron, or even bronze-level troops, and they can only rely on foreign objects to strengthen their strength.
This is inseparable from the consumption of a large amount of ammunition and scrolls, and it is with these materials that Emperor Shakti's troops can crush the opponent's elite troops in the front.
You must know that this time Emperor Shitian's enemy, there is no cannon fodder or anything like that.
Because the space of the battleship is limited, there is no way to load a large amount of cannon fodder and food consumed by cannon fodder, so the elite army policy can only be adopted and the elite troops can be boarded on the battleship.
This means that any class of troops that can have a place on the warship is an elite with a lot of combat power.
And such an elite army was pressed and beaten by Emperor Shitian's army, and even almost all of them collapsed at the touch of a button.
The biggest credit for this is those bombs, shells and grenades, and smashing people with this thing is really powerful, and it's so cool that you don't want it.
But it is also very extravagant, even Emperor Shi Tian built countless arsenals and worked hard for a year to produce.
can't withstand such a terrifying consumption at all, and it will go straight to the bottom.
Fortunately, there are not many large-scale battles of this kind, and if it comes a few more times, I am afraid that Emperor Shi Tian will face the dilemma of lack of materials.
However, Emperor Shi Tian's motivation was only for a moment, and when he saw the seized column below, he was no longer distressed.
Because of this war, Emperor Shi Tian really made too much.
Those 18 legendary ships alone were enough to recover all the losses.
After all, ammunition is only a low-end item, which can be produced anytime and anywhere.
However, legendary warships are different, it can take decades to build one, and it also consumes countless precious resources.
These 18 legendary warships alone are enough to ensure that Emperor Shitian's flying castle is as stable as Mount Tai.
If you have enough ordinary warships in cooperation, you can basically run rampant in this sea area.
Such a harvest naturally made Emperor Shi Tian excited.
But he soon saw that there was an even bigger harvest ahead, that is, the number of warships as high as 200,000.
In fact, the total number of warships of the other side reached more than 300,000, but in the fierce battle, more than 100,000 were lost, nearly 1/3, which shows how fierce the battle was.
In addition, Emperor Shi Tian had nearly 50 million captives.
A small number of them were troops under the pirates, and after the death of their respective masters, they were wise to surrender after losing their contractual constraints.
As for the other large part, they are actually technicians on various fronts, which belong to non-combat arms.
But in the eyes of Emperor Shi Tian, these alchemists who have no combat power are the most precious existences.
They possess the ability to drive and maintain warships, and any fleet must have such people to sail safely.
Moreover, there are high-end talents among them who can not only drive and maintain battleships, but even build them.
These engineers and technicians who can build warships are basically treasures that cannot be exchanged.
Anyway, Emperor Shi Tian had long wanted to trade some from the black market, but he couldn't buy them.
Even if you have a lot of favors and are willing to pay the Golden Rule coins, you still haven't bought a few.
This shows the preciousness of this kind of high-end talent.
But now it's good, talents that can't be bought with money in the past have directly captured tens of thousands.
Judging from Princess Lionheart's report to Emperor Shakti, relying on these talents is enough to support hundreds of docks, each of which can produce ordinary flying warships.
Especially with the high-level mages on his side, or even after being taught by a top mage like Martin, maybe even legendary warships can be built.
Such a large number of talents, in the eyes of Emperor Shi Tian, their value is even higher than those legendary warships.
Without any nonsense, Emperor Shi Tian directly waved his hand, approved Princess Lionheart's proposal, and immediately began to build a new dock, and prepare drawings and raw materials.
Once the dockyard and talents are in place, work must be started immediately to build the exclusive warship belonging to Emperor Shakti.
You must know that each major force has its own dock, as well as its own special exclusive warship.
Because the situation of each faction is different, the warships needed are definitely different.
Some forces are good at light spells, so they naturally like warships that can exert the power of light spells.
And most of the forces are short-handed warriors, so they naturally like fast and sturdy warships, so that it is convenient to carry out gang jumps.
Therefore, generally speaking, the powerful forces will build their own exclusive warships to give full play to their own advantages and characteristics.
At least in the past, Emperor Shi Tian didn't even dare to think about it.
Because he has too many troops at his disposal, and there are too few people who can build battleships, there is simply no way to meet the requirements.
But now it's different, with such a large group of talents joining, Emperor Shi Tian finally has the confidence to build his own exclusive battleship.
When the time comes, how majestic it will be to form a fleet and pull it out!
However, the report is not all good news, at least at the end of the report, Princess Lionheart has left Emperor Shi Tian with a difficult problem, that is, what to do with the remaining flying warships.
You must know that the location where Emperor Shi Tian is now is relatively close to the safety zone, and there are tens of millions of kilometers away from the location of Emperor Shi Tian's flying castle.
Legendary battleships can go back in the form of space teleportation, but these ordinary flying battleships obviously don't have this ability.
If they were to fly back slowly on their own, Princess Lionheart estimated a little and found that they would have to fly for tens or hundreds of years, which was obviously not possible.
But such a large number of flying battleships definitely can't be thrown here in vain, so this is a bit difficult.
