Chapter 2092: Taking the lead

I believe that with such a group of experts in charge, at least 90% of people will give up their previous thoughts and continue to do what they should do honestly as before, and will never dare to find fault with the World Government.

Because just as the World Government said, even if they sent half of the troops, even if they sent more, these people would still not be their opponents.

As I just said, leaving half of the troops in addition to deterring other forces and making them dare not mess around, there is actually another meaning.

Because I just said that the World Government took on this task, they dare not say that they can complete the task 100%.

After all, they are not facing an ordinary force, which is almost the same as their own strength and ranks in the top three in the Sky Island World (3333 Empire!)

Although the opponent ranks third and their own ranks first, for the World Government, they have never thought that the opponent's strength is the third, but have always regarded the opponent as the second-ranked force in the Sky Island World.

Because there is another second-ranked force between their World Government and the 3333 Empire, that is, the 'Business Alliance! ’

Everyone knows that the apparent strength of the Chamber of Commerce is not to be underestimated, let alone the top three in the Sky Island World, even the top ten is very difficult.

Although Liu Yidao and Zhang San’s strength are indeed not to be underestimated, there are still many who are stronger than them.

The reason why everyone puts the Chamber of Commerce in second place is more because of the Chamber of Commerce’s economic strength, and it is the first business platform in the Sky Island World. Many people have to deal with them whether they like it or not.

So in order to please the Chamber of Commerce, they naturally gave the second place to the other party.

Everyone knows that if you offend the Chamber of Commerce, you will definitely have a hard time in the Sky Island World.

However, this is only at the beginning, because when the Chamber of Commerce was established, there was no other platform of the same type as them, so their business at this time can be said to be a monopoly.

In addition, many things can’t be purchased from other channels except the Chamber of Commerce.

But as time goes by, more and more copycat platforms appear, and at this time everyone’s dependence on the Chamber of Commerce is also much less.

As for some small and medium-sized forces with poor economic strength and low ranking, even if they know that those things are counterfeit goods, they will naturally give up the Chamber of Commerce and choose these platforms because of the cheap price and their limited ability.

So if they are asked to choose the ranking again at this time, they will definitely not support the Chamber of Commerce as before and make it the top three forces in the Sky Island World.

Of course, in addition to currying favor with the Chamber of Commerce, there is another reason. In addition to relying on personal combat power, fighting between forces mainly relies on long-range attacks, that is, the competition between siege weapons such as catapults and crossbows.

As the first force to build these weapons of mass destruction, the Chamber of Commerce naturally has advantages that other forces cannot match.

First of all, if the catapults of other forces are calculated in single digits, theirs are at least three digits.

Secondly, the quality, effectiveness, effective range, etc. of catapults and crossbows, as well as their supply of ammunition, maintenance, etc., are a series of problems that other forces need to face.

But these problems are not a problem at all when they come to the Chamber of Commerce. They can be solved in seconds at any time.

Therefore, once a battle breaks out, the catapults and crossbows of other forces will either run out of ammunition or be damaged and cannot be used.

At this time, the Merchant Alliance will still not be affected at all. At that time, it will be an absolutely one-sided situation. The Merchant Alliance can play with these forces like a cat catching a mouse, slowly playing with them until all the other side's soldiers are crushed, and slowly, letting the other side watch their subordinates and their base camps fall apart bit by bit.

In such a situation, let alone ordinary forces, even giants like the World Government and the 3333 Empire will be extremely headache.

Because you are facing an opponent with endless catapults and crossbows.

Of course, facing such a Merchant Alliance, other forces may only be passively beaten, but the World Government and the 3333 Empire, which are also ranked in the top three in the Sky Island World, will definitely have their own ways to solve this problem.

Although they do not have as many catapults and crossbows as the Merchant Alliance, their combat personnel are not less than those of the Merchant Alliance (compared with the data on the surface of the Merchant Alliance)!

So they can divide their troops into multiple groups, or forcefully close the distance with the Merchant Alliance at the cost of losses.

As long as they use people to land on the Merchant Alliance's base camp, they can risk their lives to destroy those catapults and crossbows.

Once the help of catapults and crossbows is gone, even if the Merchant Alliance has a certain advantage in numbers, it will definitely not be able to defeat opponents like the World Government and the 3333 Empire.

Because in the eyes of the world, the Merchant Alliance is a group of business people, most of whom are powerless. Facing those who often fight, they may not be able to beat one even if they are a few, let alone one-on-one.

Therefore, the advantage of the Merchant Alliance can only be to rely on its own resources and supplies, and rely on these siege weapons to fight a tug-of-war with the opponent.

As long as the opponent can't catch up with them and can't get close to them, then they can be invincible.

But in the same way, if they are intercepted and caught up by the other party, what awaits them will surely be a devastating blow.

So for many people, especially for the World Government, they must think that the strength of the 3333 Empire is better than that of the Merchant Alliance.

Only the strength of the 3333 Empire can be regarded as an opponent that they can fight with.

It is precisely because the opponent this time is a force like the 3333 Empire that the World Government has to make two preparations.

First, half of the troops were sent out, and in order to have a greater grasp, they also spent a lot of resources to recruit some mercenaries to join. In this way, although their troops were not all sent out, if they were calculated by head count, there would not be much difference.

However, they all knew that although the mercenaries were hired for money, they could not guarantee whether they would fail at the critical moment.

If the other party is not in danger of life, they will definitely fight with all their heart and soul for the sake of receiving money.

But if such a battle will endanger their lives, then they will definitely make plans for their personal safety.
