Now, with the Vietnamese army still not fully recovered, Long Chen planned to capture the remaining two Vietnamese cities that originally formed the coalition.
Just at this moment,
"My lord, there’s a message from the strategist."
Reported the scout who had come from the main city.
After carefully reading it, Long Chen smiled.
He uttered a cryptic phrase that puzzled those around him.
"Those who know me, know Filial Piety!"
Immediately, he ordered the army to set out and advance towards the nearest Vietnamese city.
On that day, Long Chen achieved consecutive victories: first luring the enemy out of the city, then encircling and attacking reinforcements, completely wiping out the main forces of the other two Vietnamese cities.
Finally, he took down the other two cities.
With a total army strength reaching 140,000, it sent shockwaves throughout the entire Asia server.
Back in the main city, Long Chen hosted a banquet for the hard-working generals and advisors like Zhao Yun, where they shared wine.
The purpose was twofold: to record the merits of the generals and soldiers, and to discuss future strategic deployments.
"My lord, I think our army should now recuperate and wait for the troops to replenish to their maximum limit, then exert overwhelming pressure on other countries like Mount Tai pressing down on the top!"
"Of course, strategies are dead, but people are alive. During this period, we can observe changes calmly, using inaction as a form of initiative and stillness to control movement."
Smiling with his feather fan, Guo Jia explained.
"Why?" Long Chen asked.
Guo Jia paced back and forth, explaining one by one:
"My lord, this strategy is most suitable for our army."
"Firstly, the current situation is unstable, and all countries are vying to attack cities and seize territory. My lord can take advantage of this opportunity to observe the strength of each country and prepare subsequent strategies."
"Secondly, we can also use this time to deplete the strength of other countries."
"Thirdly, our own army has already suffered significant losses in previous battles, and it will take time for the total number of troops to recover."
This is the most prudent and rapid way to achieve victory, and all the generals nodded repeatedly at his words.
They inwardly admired Guo Jia’s talent and strategy, and Long Chen also nodded in agreement.
By remaining unchanged, they could respond to myriad changes. This method was perfect for the current chaotic situation.
With Long Chen’s overwhelming momentum, the other lords of China also achieved good development.
In the north, Zhang Wuji had already captured a city in Syria as a precursor.
In the south, Danran and King Shangzhu jointly captured two cities, and Emperor’s Sword in the east also performed well.
They successfully defended their cities without letting Sakura Country breach them.
It seems that although Emperor’s Sword did not achieve any military results, its importance is no less than any of the other three lords.
It’s like during World War II, when China intercepted the Japanese in the east and prevented them from overrunning China.
Otherwise,
The Japanese would have a clear path and would have formed a pincer attack with the German army in the east, seizing the entire Asia-Europe.
And Emperor’s Sword’s current role is almost the same. Once Sakura Country breaches Emperor’s City, Long Chen in the west will face a two-front battle.
The other lords would face similar situations, which would be disastrous.
Therefore, Emperor’s Sword, with his efforts, won the recognition and admiration of all Chinese people.
As for the Continental Qualifiers, it has been over three months now.
Europe has produced the four strongest countries.
They are Germany, Polar Bear Kingdom, England, and France, ranked in descending order of points.
Each country has its own elite troops.
Among them, Germany has the Necromancers.
Necromancers are mysterious mages dressed in black cloaks, a fourth-tier unit, extremely rare in number but terrifyingly powerful.
As the name suggests, Necromancers revive the dead, summon and control various creatures to carry out their commands.
Each Necromancer can unleash extraordinary power on the battlefield.
This is why Germany has obtained the top spot in the European server.
The Polar Bear Kingdom has the Centaur Cavalry, a third-tier special cavalry unit with superb mobility and powerful attacks.
They excel in raiding and frontal assaults, serving as the ace troops of the Polar Bear Kingdom.
In addition, there are the heavily armored and defensively strong Polar Bear Warriors, powerful warriors mounted on polar bears, with both striking power and explosive force.
England boasts the Minotaur, a third-tier unit known for its strength and might.
They also have a small number of fourth-tier units, the Paladins, symbols of light, bringing vitality and hope.
These Paladins are currently the strongest unit in England, but their numbers are extremely scarce because each Paladin is extraordinarily costly.
France, on the other hand, has the Crusaders, a third-tier unit, and the elegant yet bloody fourth-tier unit, the Vampires.
However, the number of Vampires appearing in the Continental Qualifiers is scarce.
It’s unclear whether France is hiding its strength or if this is their true power.
In the European and American servers, the top three positions have been mostly determined.
Similarly, in the Asia server, the rankings have been established as well.
China holds the top spot with 7 points, while Sakura Country follows with 4 points in second place, and Mongolia ranks third.
Mongolia’s mounted archers are also formidable, capable of shooting arrows from horseback at high speeds with remarkable accuracy.
They are like mobile artillery platforms.

Long Chen was training his soldiers in the camp, enhancing the coordination between different units, when a messenger rushed into the tent.
"Report!"
"My lord, ally Danran requests a meeting to discuss matters."
Long Chen immediately set aside his work and headed towards the mansion.
He knew Danran to be somewhat aloof and rarely initiating conversations with others.
Today, however, Danran had come personally to discuss something important within his territory, indicating that this was likely a significant matter.
As Long Chen pondered, he soon arrived at the mansion.
Opening the gates, he entered the reception hall.
There, he found a man in white sitting upright by the tea table, taking a sip of tea. Sensing someone behind him, he spoke up:
"You’ve finally arrived."
