Chapter 1587 Pressure
The emergency was dealt with urgently, and as soon as Lu Ping'an received the news, he dropped everything and went directly to his military region.
After all, he is not only the commander of the military zone, but also a high-level combat force in charge of garrisoning.
In fact, after Lu Ping'an arrived, he got the contact information of the three quasi-gods. They should be in the surrounding cities and will respond to Lu Ping'an's call when necessary.
"Fortunately, my 'trading place' is now able to operate on its own."
What Lu Ping'an could be thankful for was that everything was going well in his hometown and things were beginning to function properly in all aspects.
A large number of researchers are conducting research on transforming ancient trees into battleships. This can actually be easily done by him. He only needs to transform the basic rules of the two worlds and transfer the molding technology of Mercury 42.
In fact, his "clone" was in charge of the research over there, and this feeling of multiple uses of the clone was not the first time, but unlike the previous fully active control, this time it was more like an automatic AI with another personality. In essence, it was still him, so there was no need to worry about schizophrenia. But Lu Ping'an did not need to be controlled by a split mind. He just needed to let it act freely and wait for the results from them.
The greatest help provided by those researchers is actually the various devices and equipment on the "battleship".
The effectiveness of a warship is often not determined by its own performance, but by what is on board and what specific functions it has.
Let's leave this aspect to the experts to study. Lu Ping'an simply used his authority to order several log warships.
These things are valuable enough just as combat tools for a high-level fighter like me.
".The official document just arrived, which warns you."
"Uh, do you want me to sit in?"
Lu Ping'an was a little surprised that he was called out by name. Although he had not been working diligently for a few days, shouldn't the higher-ups know what he was doing?
"No, they ask you to prioritize your own safety. Even if the front line collapses, you must ensure your own survival."
The adjutant who delivered the message was somewhat puzzled. How could there be such an order? The commander's personal safety was higher than the entire war zone? There was no responsibility even if the front line was lost?
Lu Ping'an instantly understood that the demise of those quasi-gods might have scared them.
The reality made them realize that in front of a being like Octopus, even an "immortal transcendent" could die suddenly if they were not careful.
And if his own fall had been the loss of a suspected "future big boss" just a month ago, as long as the other side had enough chips, no sacrifice would be unacceptable for him to resign.
Now, the balance has tilted. If Lu Ping'an dies in battle, it will be an unbearable loss.
Lu Ping'an's clone told him that the courtyard there is full every day, and some ordinary people who are trustworthy in all aspects have started to spend points to become extraordinary people.
On the other hand, although Lu Ping'an did not successfully separate the power of the Beast God to allow those people to directly become beastmen such as fishmen, through the basic function of making a wish, they can still change their life form. After all, this power already exists in Lu Ping'an's "reserve".
This means that as long as the holy land on Lu Ping'an's side operates normally, countless people will be able to become extraordinary people every day, and a large number of extraordinary people, warriors, and soldiers will be able to obtain "water combat expertise."
Although shortening life expectancy is a huge price to pay, given the current situation, living a few years less is really nothing.
".Even if I am a strategic point now, there is no need to warn me directly through official channels. Wouldn't it be enough to just tell me privately? Aren't you afraid that public communication will shake the morale of the army?"
Lu Ping'an felt that there was something else behind the words, but before he could guess what it was, the answer came out.
".The Sakura Kingdom was attacked? Half of the capital city went up in the sky?"
This news made Lu Ping'an a little confused. His defense military zone was not in the same direction as Sakurajima, so he got the news a little late.
Originally, all the major temporary marine military regions were stationed locally, waiting for the storm to come, but in the end it was the neighboring countries that suffered?
"Should we send reinforcements?"
"It seems to be a volunteer army. Well, some are selected, but some are drawn from the army on a voluntary basis."
Now, Lu Ping'an understood that this was a warning to himself not to "voluntarily go abroad."
What is happening now is both unexpected and reasonable. In an era when the East Country is strong enough, the so-called first island chain naturally becomes its own line of defense.
Especially since the East Country's coastal defense line is one-way, many quasi-gods and armies are waiting there. At this time, it is very important to attack its front area and gain an outpost.
Moreover, the island is surrounded by the sea, the coastline is ridiculously long, and the various ports for convenient landing are countless, making it impossible to lay down comprehensive defenses.
Looking at the map, Lu Ping'an fell silent.
This time, Dongguo can't let it go.
This is not to say that the relationship between East Country and Sakurajima is very good in this timeline. Once the island chain's defense line is breached, the next victim will be East Country's coastline. If a war must be fought to the death, it is naturally better not to have the battlefield in one's own country.
If those high-level transcendents go all out, it is not difficult to sink a few small islands. Sakurajima may not sink, but it is certain that the quasi-gods will blow up a few cities.
".This should be a exploratory attack by the enemy. We cannot allow them to have an outpost."
Although most of the Octopuses are sea creatures, there are also many terrestrial races among the other races, especially the war machines such as the Giant Soldier Race, which also need the front-line land as an outpost.
". Sakurajima cannot be lost. Not only that, all the islands along the mainland cannot be lost. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles."
Even Lu Ping'an could understand such a simple strategic layout, let alone the military decision makers in the rear.
This time, the East Kingdom will not only not sit idly by, but will also send a considerable amount of reinforcements to fight back this attempt.
“Sometimes, we don’t need to outrun the beast, we just need to outrun our companions.”
As time goes by, it is no longer East Asia and Southeast Asia that are suffering from disasters.
In the peninsula further south and across the ocean in America, sea monsters and mermen also appeared.
Today, this has become a real disaster for humanity, and Citibank, after failing in its counterattack, has been accusing East Asia of inaction in the international community every day.
Although everyone knows that this is nonsense, it has indeed incited many irrational disaster victims.
As a major country, perhaps we must do something.
Lu Ping'an sighed. He could probably only watch from behind. Before some decision makers' nervousness ended, or perhaps before enough extraordinary professionals were born, he would probably have to enjoy the treatment of a top-grade protected animal.
But soon, he got a new job.
Perhaps the East Country officials were worried that he was too idle and took the initiative to find trouble, or perhaps it was simply because the plan list had arrived at the agreed time, and a large number of residents from Mercury 42 arrived.
The arrival of these battle-hardened foreign warriors also means that this temporary military zone is no longer an empty shell and can finally do something.
Naturally, Lu Ping'an saw a lot of old acquaintances among them.
