Today's second update: Chapter 1045! 2/3!
On the other end of the video, Yun Cheng Wanlipeng's expression was extremely grim as well.
"Kun God, it was my mistake!"
"What do you mean? I need a reasonable explanation!" Xu Kun said bluntly.
Yun Cheng Wanlipeng slowly explained, "In a resource contest, a strategic objective is set based on the type of resources wagered by the target. Generally, the objective is to breach the city walls and inflict a certain degree of damage on some of the city's facilities!"
Xu Kun naturally knew this common sense.
"Although the allied armies of the various races made an imposing show this time, the resources they chose were not particularly valuable, so we let our guard down. As long as they didn't breach the city, they couldn't gain any advantage. The wolf race placed the largest wager—they bet the entire Ice Wolf Fortress. If we won, we could directly obtain half of Ice Wolf City!"
"But we have no way of seeing the other side's strategic objective..."
Xu Kun nodded. Only the attacking side knew the strategic objective. Only battles like the Casino City War, the most fiercely contested type of resource contest, had clear requirements: annihilate the defending forces, enter the city, seize the City Lord's Manor, and kill the city's honorary city lord!
As for the strategic objectives of other resource contests, that depended on Haotian Pagoda's arrangements!
"I only learned afterward that the wolf race's strategic objective was to seize Ice Wolf Fortress!"
Xu Kun froze. "They weren't attacking City of Freedom?"
Yun Cheng Wanlipeng nodded. "As a special entity, Ice Wolf Fortress was placed within City of Freedom's territory after its establishment. I was negligent and didn't station any troops there, which gave those wolf cubs an opportunity!"
