In short, Shenju began to gather troops and prepare for the upcoming war. He asked the counselor beside him with a serious look: "Based on the current situation, how many troops can we mobilize?" The counselor pondered for a moment and replied, "If we reduce the manpower in each main city, we can withdraw a maximum of three million troops..." After listening to this, Shen Ju snorted coldly, his eyes revealing determination and domineering: "That's enough, I will personally lead these three million troops to defeat the human race and let them know our strengths and weaknesses!" The counselor was horrified upon hearing this and quickly advised: "Sir, our top priority right now is defense!" "If we attack rashly, we might end up in a disadvantageous situation..." Just now Shenju said that he didn't need any advisers to teach him how to fight, so why is he suddenly so reckless and wants to take the initiative to attack? Although Shenju has a total of five million troops under his command, since each main city must be guarded by soldiers to ensure the safety and stability of the territory, the actual number of troops that can be mobilized is not as abundant as that of the human race. This is also the reason why the counselors previously suggested to defend strictly and wait for the enemy to tire themselves out. However, at this moment, Shen Ju did not seem to intend to adopt such a conservative tactic, but wanted to win the war by taking the initiative.

This is not a good strategy! The strategist was secretly anxious. As a strategist, he certainly understood the cruelty and complexity of war. Any rash decision could lead to irreversible consequences. Not to mention that Shenju's current available military force is slightly smaller than that of the human race, and even in terms of relics, they may not necessarily have an advantage. "Sir, the human race is suspected to have large and rare relics..." the strategist reminded again, with a hint of worry in his tone. He still couldn't forget the result of the previous battle where Shen Ting was killed. Shen Ju sneered, as if he had it all planned out: "I have just spent a lot of money to buy detailed information about their relics." "They currently only have two large and rare relics that can be used in battle!" "There are no large rare relics!" "what?" "That means we were deceived before!" The strategist was shocked when he heard this, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face. It turned out that in order to obtain accurate information, Shenju spent a huge amount of money to purchase it from the Observatory. Generally speaking, different intelligence has different prices. Shen Ju did not purchase this information before, mainly because it involved three large and rare relics and the cost was too high. The pricing of the Stargazing Pavilion is like this. Even if the human race no longer has large rare relics, but the information you purchased is about large rare relics, then it will be calculated according to the price of information about large rare relics. If you buy three pieces, the price will be three times. So the price is quite high. At that time, Shen Ju had already decided to take the loss, so he was too lazy to look up information in this regard. But now the human army is approaching and the situation is critical, so he has to make this decision. As a result, after he carefully studied the information, he found that he had fallen into the human race's empty city plan. It turns out that the so-called "three large rare relics" of the human race were just bluffing. The relics they could actually use for combat were only two large rare relics, and these two large rare relics were seized from Shen Ting! This made Shenju furious. He spent so much money but ended up buying such "empty" information.

Not only that, he just found out that the human race's relics were actually seized from him before. Shen Ju decided to get back at the wits' end this time and severely defeat the human race! Of course, Shenju was not angry. Shen Ju calculated that he still had seven large and rare relics on him, which was far more than the number of large and rare relics of the human race. It was enough to exert huge power on the battlefield and make up for the shortage of manpower. This is the source of Shen Ju's confidence. He knows very well that the trump card in his hand is enough to make him invincible on the battlefield. However, there was still a trace of doubt in the counselor's heart. As a counselor of Shenju for many years, he had been fighting on the battlefield for many years and had developed a keen intuition. "My Lord, something is still wrong." The counselor spoke again, frowning, "The number of relics on the human side is not large, so why do they dare to attack us?" Upon hearing this, Shenju sneered, as if he didn't care about the counselor's doubts. "You don't know that Jiang Yu's generals are very powerful." "I have personally witnessed their competition in the Legion Arena before. The strength of those generals is indeed extraordinary." "I think this is the reason why they dare to attack us." "Also, although their military strength is slightly greater than the forces we can mobilize, I think they must have calculated this and felt confident enough to take action." "Anyway, there's no need to say more." Shen Ju's tone revealed an unquestionable determination, "Quickly mobilize the troops. I will personally carry seven large and rare relics to the battle." "I have so many relics in my hands. I want to see if Jiang Yu's generals dare to rush to me!" No matter how powerful Jiang Yu's generals are, even if they carry their two large rare relics, they can hardly match his seven large rare relics! He will win this battle! The counselor looked at Shenju's determined eyes and knew that it was useless to persuade him any further. Shenju had made up his mind, and as an advisor, he could only do his best to assist him and fulfill his duties. So, under the command of Shenju, three million troops of the gods marched towards Shendang City in the north. Wherever the army passed, dust flew and battle flags fluttered, demonstrating the majesty and power of the gods. But at this time, neither Shen Ju nor Jiang Yu knew that Shen Ju's adviser, after careful consideration, secretly sent a confidant to sneak out of the city under the cover of night and rush towards a territory further south. The mission of this confidant is to seek help from a leader of the Zhanwu tribe who is on good terms with Shenju. Although Jiang Yu and his people's territory is only adjacent to Shenju's territory, Shenju's territory is not isolated. In fact, there are more territories of other lords bordering Shenju, which means that Shenju has more strategic options and possibilities. From a geographical perspective, the northernmost part is Wanshou Mountain, and near the foot of Wanshou Mountain is the territory of Jiang Yu and the other three human beings, where they stick together. Further south is the territory of Shenju, which has a dangerous terrain and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. However, Shenju's advisers also understood that war is often full of variables. Not to mention the current war, which seems a bit wrong no matter how you look at it. In order to ensure assistance at the critical moment, Shenju's advisers decided to ask for help from the leader of the Zhanwu tribe, who had a friendly relationship with Shenju. (End of this chapter)
