Chapter 694 War breaks out
After years of accumulation and the explosion of domestic productivity, the contradiction between the Sun-Moon Empire and the Three Douluo Kingdoms has actually reached an irreversible stage.
With the development of industry within the Sun-Moon Empire, emerging capital forces have occupied important domestic forces. And they need overseas markets. They need a lot of wealth to dump domestically produced goods abroad.
But because of the victory before the war, the Three Douluo Kingdoms have many agreements that are beneficial to them in trade. They can protect certain industries in their own country and prevent many products from impacting themselves. Seeing that the benefits cannot be obtained, the Sun-Moon Empire is naturally eager for a war to open the door of the Three Douluo Kingdoms. Through this war, their cheap industrial products can occupy the entire market of the Three Douluo Kingdoms and use them as colonies for dumping their own industrial products.
This is also because the development speed of the other two continents is slow. The population is too sparse. Colonies can indeed become dumping grounds for industrial products. But the population on the new continent is really not large enough. It is impossible to dump such a large number of industrial products, and at present, there are signs of overproduction of productivity within the Sun-Moon Empire. If the internal structure is not adjusted immediately, an economic crisis caused by overdeveloped industry may occur.
That is, it is still in the imperial era. The market is not controlled by the invisible hand of capital, but the royal family has great interference and can regulate the market. Otherwise, it would have collapsed long ago.
Although the Sun-Moon Empire is technologically prosperous, its own system is extremely deformed. In short, the production relations cannot keep up with the development of productivity.
At this time, it is either to divert contradictions through external wars or to have internal revolutions. Replace the ruling class and internal system.
The Sun-Moon Empire will undoubtedly choose the first one. The royal family will never take the initiative to hand over power from their own hands. So the inevitable war occurs. This war is called the Soul Ring War in history.
Douluo Three Kingdoms opposed the dumping of soul rings by the Sun-Moon Empire. This dumping was initially quite beneficial to soul masters, but as time went on, the number of soul rings increased, and the demand for soul masters to hunt soul beasts decreased. The value of soul masters themselves also decreased, resulting in a decline in the living standards of soul masters. They began to collectively resist the invasion of foreign soul rings.
As a result, the export of soul rings in the Sun-Moon Empire was restricted. A large number of stakeholders launched this war in order to break the trade blockade.
The location where this war broke out was something that the Douluo Three Kingdoms had never expected. On the coastline of the Douling Empire, which is farthest from the Sun and Moon Empire, a huge steamship roared and drove towards the port.
Behind the steamship, there were aircraft carriers, and fighter planes took off from the aircraft carriers. The heavy artillery on the battleships bombarded the coast fiercely.
The soul stones on the coast could not defend against such a bombing. Fighters flew over their heads. Some dropped terrifying explosives. Others jumped from them one by one.
These people were holding powerful automatic weapons, and they could release attacks continuously without consuming their soul power, and quickly occupied the coastline.
The follow-up troops came to the coast on landing craft from the ship, and completed a beautiful landing operation almost effortlessly.
The Douling Empire had never thought that such a thing would happen. Immediately gathered troops to blockade the coast. However, they had no navy at all. They barely could become a navy, driving a sailboat. Facing the opponent's aircraft carriers and battleships, they were not even a match. Under the bombardment of heavy artillery, the wooden boards were blown into pieces, and the sailing battleships sank one by one on the seashore, without causing any casualties to the enemy.
Instead, the opponent's soldiers had already established a base on the seashore. And there were a large number of supplies transported by ships, and the logistics were directly solved by sea transportation, and the Sun and Moon Empire was invincible at sea. It was impossible for the Douluo Three Kingdoms to attack their logistics supply lines.
Now everything was developing in an uncontrollable direction.
Originally, both sides were ready to fight. The Douluo Three Kingdoms had stockpiled a large number of troops on the border, and the main forces were all sent there. Who would have thought that the other side would directly stab them in the back, and because of the sea fleet, there was no problem with logistics supply at all. Going straight down, unstoppable. Picking the weak persimmons The Douluo Empire is the weakest of the three empires. The troops were borrowed by the Heavenly Soul Empire for border defense and could not return to the country in a short time. With the country empty, Douling City could not defend it at all. A large number of mechanized troops landed from the seaside.
They continued to advance together with the mechas. The tanks in these mechanized troops have extremely thick armor. If the thickness of the mecha armor is so thick that most soul stones cannot destroy it. Then even if the thickness of the tank armor is a title, it will take some effort for Douluo to destroy it.
After all, the high-strength alloy constructed by rare metals is made into a physical defense. Without considering too high mobility, a defense layer of hundreds of millimeters can be constructed, and the strength of such a thick alloy armor has far exceeded the attack limit of the soul master in this world.
Without a title, Douluo-level attacks hit such thick armor, just like tickling. The armor can indeed be switched to heavy armor mode, but it is impossible to have such thick armor.
With the cooperation of these tanks, mecha warriors can hide behind the tanks to avoid most of the enemy's attacks. When the enemy comes near the tanks, they want to destroy them through the tank's own structural problems, such as overturning them. They will face the bombing of mecha warriors. With firepower cover, the strong men of the same level can't even last a face-to-face encounter.
The biggest role of these tanks is actually to break through the defense. After breaking through the defense, their mission is basically over. They can stop and rest, and then arrange each other in a stable formation to build a linkage shield. This linkage shield built with huge energy reserves cannot be broken even by Super Douluo.
Only during the army's assault will the defense be weak. After all, there was no way to maintain the linkage of the formation at that time, and the effect of the soul guide would be affected to a certain extent.
Relying on such a high-speed route to attack the city and defend on the spot. The Sun and Moon Empire quickly occupied a large number of cities, and took down Douling City in the bombardment.
This was not a very tragic battle, at least for the Sun and Moon Empire. A large number of self-propelled artillery were under their cover. Successfully arrived at the foot of Douling City. The heavy artillery bombardment was not something that the soul masters of this era could resist.
Even if there were magnificent walls a hundred meters high, it would be meaningless under such an attack. Amidst the loud bangs, the walls on all sides collapsed one after another. The chariots crushed the ruins of the city walls into the city. The bombing from a high position almost turned the capital into a ruin. Other cities can be occupied without being destroyed, but the capital must be destroyed. This is to give the enemy a spiritual blow, so that they lose their pride and lose any idea of counterattack.
The capital of the empire was destroyed with great force. The Douluo Three Kingdoms were greatly shocked. When they first faced the soul guide, they suffered a great loss because of this extremely special weapon, and this time it was even more so.
They had no idea how the Sun and Moon Empire did it? And the loss this time was even more exaggerated than before. The capital of a country was directly captured. The royal family was almost completely killed. Only a few who were not in the palace escaped. But in the future, I am afraid that they can only hide their names and dare not take up their own flags.
As the Sun-Moon Empire attacked the seaside, a large army also landed on the Xingluo Empire side and carried out harassment operations on the seaside. The troops originally defending the border of the Sun-Moon Empire had to be withdrawn in large numbers to the rear to deal with the army on the coastline. After all, the army of the Sun-Moon Empire was unstoppable. It was advancing at high speed and heading straight for Xingluo City. This public enemy had to mobilize a large number of border armies. As a result, the defense on the Mingdou Mountains was empty.
While defending against air raids, a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky. The terrifying explosion, which was comparable to that of Big Ivan, blew a huge gap on the mountains. Although the Mingdou Mountains were steep, there were also relatively flat areas. The terrifying explosion ignored all the defensive soldiers stationed on the peaks. Together with their camps, they were all turned into ashes. The follow-up troops quickly paved roads in the blasted pit. Mechanized troops can directly drive along this gap and head straight into the interior of the Xingluo Empire.
And this feint to the east and attacking the west was almost an open conspiracy, and the Xingluo Empire had to send people to the imperial capital for support. The Sun-Moon Empire took the opportunity to send out its main force. It began to sandwich the two sides.
Lan Nuo did not directly participate in this war. But he provided a large amount of supplies for the logistics of the war. When he returned from the moon, the Sun-Moon Empire needed him to provide a large amount of plant assistance. Especially the bullets of cattail grass.
Although they already have the ability to manufacture missiles, the cost of missiles driven by chips is still too high. If cattail grass is used instead of chips, the cost of missiles will be greatly reduced. It can be used on a large scale.
Although Lan Nuo did not agree with the launch of this war, he also knew that it was impossible for him to stop this war. The domestic contradictions have accumulated to this extent, and it is impossible not to erupt. And he is not yet able to guide this force to carry out a revolution. Technology is developing too fast. The humanities can't keep up at all. Even if he launched a revolution according to his own wishes, the underlying ideas can't keep up, which will make his revolution lose its material basis. Eventually regress again.
In contrast, he still hopes that the Sun-Moon Empire can win. At least there will be hope for change in the future, and it will not last for tens of thousands of years like the Empire Era of Douluo Three Kingdoms.
The Xingluo Empire gathered more than 50 Title Douluo-level masters in the capital, and Shrek Academy even sent out Extreme Douluo to help. I don’t know if it was fate or what, but the vice president inexplicably broke through to the level of Extreme Douluo.
It was to crush the Sun-Moon Empire through the number of masters. However, all this was meaningless. More than 50 Title Douluo were suspended in the sky above Xingluo City. This scene was indeed extremely shocking. In the history of the entire soul stone, such a scene was probably extremely rare, but it could not change anything. The wheel of history still rolled forward. The Sun-Moon Empire had long anticipated that a large number of masters would stop themselves and prepared corresponding means for this.
As a large number of masters gathered in the sky above the city, as they showed their powerful strength, they wanted to shock the Sun-Moon Empire. Missiles were launched one by one. Drawing incomprehensible weird trajectories in the air, these strong men had no way to dodge. And they didn't intend to dodge.
They could feel the energy contained in these missiles. It was roughly equivalent to a level 7 or 8 soul guide cannon. This power could indeed cause some damage to them. But if they were prepared, it would basically be impossible to cause them harm, and these missiles were tracking different people. If the Sun and Moon Empire all chased the same strong man to bomb, they might still achieve certain results. But such a large-scale scattered bombardment could not produce any results at all.
It was just that these strong men made a mistake in judgment. The breath they felt was indeed correct. The highest of these missiles was only the level of an eight-level soul guide.
But these energies were not used to explode outward and release destruction. Instead, they were distributed in a sphere. Relatively compressed in a short period of time. Let the radioactive substances inside break through the critical mass in a very short time. Reach a supercritical state.
The power released in this way was thousands of times greater than the power required to compress them.
So much so that an extremely bright and almost invisible light was released in the explosion. A Titled Douluo endured this terrifying attack, and one sun after another appeared in the sky. It was simply shrouded in endless light. Xingluo City was almost shrouded in a furnace. The light radiation alone had already ignited a large number of wooden buildings in Xingluo City. Many people who were directly exposed to the light radiation suffered extremely serious burns even if they were not bombarded by the shock wave, and this was still at a considerable distance.
As for the titles that were hit, those who were good at defense might be able to survive, while those who were good at agility or attack. Those who did not defend or dodge in time were basically all destroyed in the explosion. Only the existence of the Super Douluo level could withstand it.
Who would have thought that the Sun and Moon Empire would have invested so many nuclear weapons in a battle? If these nuclear weapons did not interfere with each other, after the first explosion, the electromagnetic pulse would make the others untraceable. They could only be detonated at the same time, and the damage caused would probably be even more terrifying than it is now.
