Kim Geun-seok's Strategy: Retreat to Advance!
"Young Master Kim, say something!"
"Are you mute? You can't blame us for this mistake, can you?"
"You've already challenged this Instance three times. Don't you have any strategy at all? The weather system is one of the most basic things in Instance."
On the wireless communication channel, the accusations from the other three family heads continued.
Kim Geun-seok frantically ruffled his hair, his eyes bloodshot.
His mind went blank, and he even started scratching his head.
Despite all his careful planning and precautions, he never expected that Lin Ye had also taken precautions with the weather system!
In fact, weather-based battles are quite common in many Instance on Azure Star, especially in lower-level Instance where Dungeon Designers often incorporate complex weather systems to increase Instance.
Rain battles, snow battles, fog battles, storm battles...
These things are not unusual, and some high-level Designers even look down on this kind of childish approach.
Because this so-called weather system is more of a gimmick and cannot reflect true capabilities.
These are tactics used by those who lack core technologies in order to cover up their own shortcomings in military strength.
But it's obvious... Lin Ye's weather system is definitely not some low-level weather setting! Because this setting is far beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
Take this -75 degree Celsius temperature setting from Bear Country, for example. Kim Geun-seok simply couldn't understand the logic behind getting it approved by Firmament.
How could a country possibly survive in an environment with temperatures as low as -75 degrees Celsius?!
How can the people of this country withstand such abnormally low temperatures?!
Various doubts, but none of them are things Kim Geun-seok has time to think about right now.
He couldn't complain, because every time the Instance started, the Firmament would give the Challengers a weather forecast of the Bear Country.
It's just that everyone takes this matter seriously.
War is imminent!
Their South Korea Land Warfare were simply unable to advance due to the low temperatures...
Even if one could exert all their strength to move across the snow, the combat effectiveness of the Military Ordnance would be greatly reduced.
Meanwhile, their invasion has angered the Bear Country, Bear Country army will soon arrive.
Regardless of the actual strength of the Bear Country Land Warfare, given the current state of the Goryeo army, any random unit could easily crush them.
Is this round of Instance challenges going to end in such a ridiculous way again?!
Kim Geun-seok punched the Command Console, smashing his own hand until it was bloody and mangled.
He was unwilling to accept it, truly unwilling!
If the Instance truly ends in this way, then the South Korea Settlement will undoubtedly become a complete joke.
The elite Land Warfare forces created by the Strong Clan Initiative were repeatedly outmaneuvered by Lin Ye.
This humiliation will incite public anger in the South Korea Settlement, and the Kim family's status will be completely destroyed.
What to do?!
Kim Geun-seok forced himself to remain calm.
Suddenly, an idea popped into his head, like a sudden tap on the head by God.
Since they can't gain any advantage in Bear Country, why not retreat to Malaysia and wait for Bear Country's army to attack them?
In any case, in the mechanics of this Instance, once you invade the Bear Country, the Bear Country will take the initiative to launch a strategic attack on the country where the Challengers is located!
In this way, they will have ample time to deploy their troops, thus gaining a significant advantage in terrain.
Since we can't venture into the tiger's den, why not wait for the rabbit to run into our trap?
"Haha!" Kim Geun-seok suddenly burst into laughter, all the gloom in his heart vanishing.
He himself was moved by his quick thinking.
"President Lee, President Choi, President Park, do you three really think I haven't considered these things?" Kim Geun-seok shouted into the microphone in the command vehicle. "Really?"
"You all underestimate me, Kim Geun-seok!"
"Let me tell you, everything that's happening right now is part of my plan, a situation I deliberately created without my knowledge!"
"The reason I'm leading everyone into the territory of the Bear Country is to trigger Bear Country pursuit mechanism and lure Bear Country army to us."
"What we need to do now is retreat back to the area around Uvs Lake in Malaysia, set up camp there, and make strategic plans!"
"By leveraging Malaysia's inherent geographical advantages, we have a better chance of defeating Bear Country's army! This time, we must shift from an offensive to a defensive posture!"
Upon hearing Kim Geun-seok's new instructions, the other three people on the communication channel fell silent.
It must be said that Kim Geun-seok's strategy was indeed flawless.
Given the current situation, retreating to Malaysia would indeed be more reasonable than continuing to venture deeper into Bear Country.
Furthermore, the geography of Malaysia is also well-suited for trench warfare.
But upon closer reflection, something seemed off.
"Young Master Kim... your plan does sound feasible," Lee Jae-yong said over the communication channel.
"But I have a question. Isn't the objective of this Instance mission to conquer any one of the three main cities: Volgograd, Saint Petersburg, or Moscow?"
"Even if your tactics can defeat the Russian Bear army, how will you capture Russian Bear capital city?"
Lee Jae-yong's question really stumped Kim Geun-seok.
He never considered such a detailed issue.
The tactics we just used were impromptu, a purely emergency measure.
But since things had come to this point, he couldn't admit that he was trying to salvage the situation, otherwise he would truly be considered mediocre.
Even if I really didn't think of it, I still have to pretend that I'm confident.
Even if it means putting on a brave face, it's all the way through!
"Hmph... Mr. Li doesn't actually think I haven't considered this issue, does he?"
"This is all part of my plan!"
"President Lee, let me ask you this: with all of Goryeo's Land Warfare Military Ordnance, do you think it's capable of reaching even the nearest major city Moscow?" Kim Geun-seok countered with a smile. "Which of our Goryeo's Military Ordnance can operate in temperatures as low as -75 degrees Celsius?"
"Um... it seems the possibility is indeed very low right now," Lee Jae-yong stammered in response.
"Then let me ask you another question: if the Bear Country Military Ordnance can cross the vast Snowfields to attack our troops, does that mean that the Bear Country Military Ordnance possesses extremely strong snow-based operational capabilities?"
"Would it be feasible for us to use tactics to defeat the Russian Bear army, then seize Bear Country Military Ordnance equipment, and use it to attack their capital city?"
After Kim Geun-seok said that, the other three people on the communication channel Dead Silence again. It has to be said that, under the current circumstances, Kim Geun-seok's method was indeed the best choice.
Finally, everyone couldn't help but sigh.
"Young Master Kim, your insight is brilliant!"
"Putting everything else aside, Young Master Kim's move was truly brilliant! It was well-planned!"
"Just do as Young Master Kim."
Seeing that Lee Jae-yong, Choi, and the other two had nothing to say, Kim Geun-seok was very pleased.
It was truly a miraculous escape from a desperate situation.
Human potential is truly limitless; the more critical the moment, the more ingenious plans can be devised to turn the tide.
In fact, Kim Geun-seok knew very well that his plan still had many flaws.
For example, there's the issue of time.
We're already in the third day of the Instance, and there are less than four days left before Instance closes. What if the Bear Country army can't get here in time?
Or, even if the Bear Country army could arrive in time, and the Goryeo army could defeat the Bear Country forces, what if they didn't have enough time to return to Moscow?
But clearly, Lee Jae-yong, Choi Tae-won, and Park Jeong-yong- young hadn't thought of these things, and naturally, he wouldn't bring it up on his own initiative.
Since things have come to this point, even if it's wrong, we must continue down this wrong path without hesitation!
"All troops, listen up! Cease your offensive against Bear Country and withdraw to Uvs Lake, Malaysia!"
Kim Geun-seok- seok gave the order.
The entire Korean Steel Corps turned around and sped off in the opposite direction.
In the Livestream Room, the viewers started discussing it again.
This time, however, it wasn't a sarcastic remark directed at Kim Geun-seok.
Most people agree with the decision to withdraw troops back to Malaysia.
[To be honest, this Young Master Kim is indeed quite cunning; he actually came up with this method...]
[God Ye's Instance is indeed too tricky. Snowfield at -75 degrees Celsius—I think any settlement on Azure Star would have a hard time coping with such an extreme environment.]
[God Ye is truly something else; even designing a weather system is so ingenious.]
[Although Kim Geun-seok didn't seem to have planned this in advance, his ability to come up with such a quick and ingenious solution under these circumstances truly demonstrates the hard-earned strength of a top-tier expert.]
[Don't jump to conclusions so quickly. If the Bear Country army sees that the Challengers have retreated to Malaysia and doesn't launch an attack, what will happen to these Koreans?]
[It's highly unlikely. As previously Firmament, Bear Country is a country that holds grudges and seeks revenge; even the slightest act of aggression will provoke Bear Country wrath.]
At this moment, the spectators were all very excited.
Everyone was eager to see just how Level Lin Ye was in Land Warfare.
Lin Ye had already demonstrated his skills in Naval Warfare and Aerial Warfare in his own Instance, showcasing his top-tier abilities within Azure.
If his Land Warfare Level are also overwhelming, then Lin Ye is undoubtedly the all-around warrior with a perfect hexagonal skill set in Instance design!
Kim Geun-seok's first two attacks were somewhat frivolous, but this time it was clear that the guy's intelligence was finally online.
The number of people streaming the Instance is also increasing.
Everyone wanted to see the battle between the Land Warfare forces that brought together the entire South Korea army and Lin Ye, the most renowned Dungeon Designer on Azure Star.
Who is truly superior?
