Chapter 498: The Declining Advantage of the Black Tiger Tribe

“The so-called surround without attack means we will fully destroy the defenses around the stronghold of the Spirit Heart Tribe, demonstrating the powerful strength and deterrence of our expeditionary army to them.”

Guli finally provided an explanation: “In this regard, the main force will be our soldiers from the Great Flame Empire, utilizing long-range attacks.”

“The Demon Race army will assist from the side, coordinating with the soldiers of the Great Flame Empire to use their teleportation abilities to enter the defenses for destruction and to create breaches.”

“The Black Tiger Tribe only needs to cheer for support.”

“Once we destroy the defenses around the stronghold of the Spirit Heart Tribe and force their army back to the next line of defense, that will be our opportunity to act.”

“Our opportunity to act?”

The High-ranking Leaders and strong fighters of the Black Tiger Tribe and the Demon Race are all dumbfounded.

Guli nodded: “Using the flying treasure to shield our Perception Ability, we will infiltrate the area where the Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe is located, showcasing our Top-tier Combat Power to further pressure the high-ranking leaders of the Spirit Heart Tribe and ultimately force them to surrender completely.”

The leaders and strong fighters of various tribes are left dumbfounded.

Force them to surrender?

How is that possible?

Most leaders of any race, even if they face death, would not be willing to lead their entire race to surrender to another.

Doing so would make them the traitors of their entire race.

As long as the race exists, these leaders are destined to become part of the disgrace of their race.

But upon further thought, it seems not entirely impossible…

With a large army outside encircling them and a massive number of enemy strong fighters appearing right next to them, combined with having previously suffered greatly at the hands of the Great Flame Pirates and being pressured by many strong fighters of the Spirit Heart Tribe to surrender.

If they create an atmosphere that implies annihilation for the Spirit Heart Tribe if they do not surrender, the Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe may not withstand the pressure.

Finally, at this moment, both the High-ranking Leaders and strong fighters of the Black Tiger Tribe and the Demon Race come to a sudden realization.

They understand why the Senior Military Officials of the Great Flame Empire chose to attack the seemingly more challenging Spirit Heart Tribe rather than the more unstable Black Tiger Tribe’s life planets, which are embroiled in internal conflict and possess weaker resistance.

From beginning to end, the unstable Black Tiger Tribe army is merely a façade, just a show that does not need to participate in large-scale warfare.

And no matter how unstable the Black Tiger Tribe army is, putting on a façade is absolutely not an issue.

The Nika Clan and the eight leaders exchange glances with each other.

The strong fighters of the Black Tiger Tribe also look a bit strange.

They suddenly feel like they are losing out.

No matter how much they resent the Great Flame Empire for taking their territory and being overbearing, they must admit that the Great Flame Empire is indeed very generous in distributing spoils of war.

At the very least, after the vassal races make corresponding contributions, they will definitely not cut the benefits and interests won by the vassal races.

If this plan can succeed, it means they will be able to devour the entire Spirit Heart Tribe in one go.

The Spirit Heart Tribe controls seven life planets; although all the resources and treasures were previously plundered by the Great Flame Pirates.

If they can force the Spirit Heart Tribe to surrender as a whole, the remaining resources and treasures of the Spirit Heart Tribe will definitely not be confiscated.

The actual gains will be nearly zero.

However, the various resources and treasures produced by the seven life planets in the future will still be calculated into the contribution value according to a certain ratio.

Without a doubt, the Military of the Great Flame Empire is responsible for transporting troops, deploying flying treasures, and formulating the entire battle plan, handling the overall command.

In terms of contribution, they will undoubtedly take the largest share.

Traditionally, the Black Tiger Tribe has ranked second in contributions.

But given the current arrangements, if this plan succeeds, the second highest contribution will undoubtedly belong to the Demon Race.

The one hundred million soldiers of the Black Tiger Tribe can only pick up the slack.

The High-ranking Leaders and strong fighters of the Black Tiger Tribe realize that their numbers are no longer capable of overwhelming the strong fighters of the Demon Race as they once could.

Additionally, with the presence of level 120 strong fighters among the Demon Race, the contributions of these Black Tiger Tribe leaders and fighters can only be one or two times greater than those of the Demon Race.

Overall, the contribution of the Demon Race will surpass that of the Black Tiger Tribe.

This means that due to an internal conflict and the failure of the Black Tiger Tribe army to complete their consolidation on time, the contribution of the Black Tiger Tribe will fall far below previous ratios.

Even if it’s just one-thousandth, it still represents a vast amount of resources and treasures, not to mention that the gap could be as much as twenty to thirty percent of the total contribution.

Both the High-ranking Leaders and the strong fighters of the Black Tiger Tribe are increasingly regretting their decisions.

Had they known this would happen, they should not have allowed the strong fighters and soldiers of Jin Jun’s tribe to test the attitude of the Great Flame Empire’s leaders, causing the situation to spiral out of control.

If they had suppressed the strong fighters and soldiers of Jin Jun’s tribe from the start, it would never have escalated to the point where the Black Tiger Tribe’s members continuously revolted.

This would have prevented the outcome of the Black Tiger Army being unable to complete its restructuring on time.

It also would not have allowed the Great Flame Empire to keep cracking down on them, making all the strong fighters from various tribes, including those who had surrendered from the Spirit Heart Tribe and Swift Tribe, fall under the command of the Demon Race.

Not only has this caused the contribution of the Black Tiger Tribe to plummet during their conquest of the Spirit Heart Tribe, but it has also significantly boosted the Top-tier Combat Power of the Demon Race, severely affecting the future contributions of the Black Tiger Tribe.

“Next, while there is still time, let’s discuss and research the details together!”

Guli ignored the regrets of the High-ranking Leaders and strong fighters of the Black Tiger Tribe. She clapped her hands and waited for everyone’s attention to focus on her before speaking:

“The most important point of this action is to put pressure on the high-ranking leaders and members of the Spirit Heart Tribe.”

“All actions must revolve around this goal. In the army’s offensive, we must demonstrate enough strength to effortlessly destroy the first line of defense of the Spirit Heart Tribe, putting their leaders and soldiers into despair.”

“And the next step of the plan will be the same. We must present the most powerful attitude in front of the high-ranking leaders of the Spirit Heart Tribe, leaving them no time to breathe or think for too long.”

The strong fighters from various tribes nod in agreement.

Even the strong fighters of the Spirit Heart Tribe nod, participating in the research and discussions about the details.

As strong fighters of the Spirit Heart Tribe, they naturally do not want to see their tribe lose its territory and fall under the rule of other races.

But from the words of the Demon Race strong fighters, they have some understanding of the situation and style of the Great Flame Empire.

They know that with the great power of the Great Flame Empire, the Spirit Heart Tribe cannot possibly resist.

Moreover, if the Spirit Heart Tribe surrenders completely, their future treatment will not be too poor.

Given the irreversible situation, they now hope to convince the high-ranking leaders of the Spirit Heart Tribe to surrender as a whole.

According to the laws of the Great Flame Empire, the tribes within its dominion are also divided into different ranks.

Races like the Demon Race and the Black Tiger Tribe belong to the vassal races.

Their status and treatment are only second to the citizens of the Great Flame Empire.

There will also be different tiers based on total contribution value.

The Spirit Heart Tribe, on the other hand, can only be considered a lower-level conquered or ruled race.

Conquered races that do not trigger large-scale wars can achieve first-tier status by surrendering as a whole.

If they surrender after suffering heavy casualties from a large-scale war, they will fall to the second tier.

Those who refuse to surrender and are completely crushed by the army of the Great Flame Empire will be placed in the third tier.

Those who have caused the Great Flame Empire army significant casualties before being annihilated will belong to the fourth tier.

The lower the tier, the lower the status.

The fourth tier already belongs to the level of slaves.

The strong fighters of the Spirit Heart Tribe naturally wish for their tribe to surrender as soon as possible to achieve first-tier status.

Moreover, the Great Flame Empire has just risen and has had conflicts with the Black Tiger Tribe, so it is precisely the time when they need the support of the various tribal armies.

After the Spirit Heart Tribe surrenders, they can reorganize their forces to join the conquests of the Great Flame Empire, and they can gradually elevate their status to become a vassal tribe and enjoy higher status and treatment based on their contributions.
