Doomsday Code

Chapter 915 Future Plans

After hearing Chen Cheng's words, the two of them withdrew their gazes, which had been fixed on some unparalleled goddess.

Then the two of them coughed awkwardly.

"Well, let's take these two beasts away and keep them under guard for now. Let's go to the North Camp and see how that Yin Zhi guy is doing."

Kui Niu was the first to react, pointing at Lauder and the other man who were lying on the ground like dead dogs.

Just then, a figure flew in from the horizon, and a sinister voice could be heard from afar.

"Silly Bull, what are you saying? Bu Jiu, how's the situation on your end? It was like a pot had boiled over here just now."

Yin Zhi must have sensed the great battle taking place here. In fact, there's no need to ask; just looking at the destruction here is enough to tell that it must have been a battle between gods.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for hundreds of miles around to have turned all the snow-capped mountains and ice fields into ruins.

Bu Jiu looked at the sinister-looking man, and then spoke:

"Nothing serious is happening here; I'm only grateful for His Majesty's help."

At this moment, Chen Cheng could hear the deep awe in Bu Jiu's address to him. It wasn't because of his status as an emperor, but because of his strength or something else.

Chen Cheng thought that this must be because of the closed-eyed deity he had summoned. Others couldn't see anything, but powerful figures like Bu Jiu and the others must have seen something.

Even now, he, the true form of the deity, still doesn't understand what state this closed-eye deity is in.

Thinking of this, Chen Cheng thought of the Sequence Ascension Quest, and then he thought of Squidward.

Remembering what this guy had said on my shoulder earlier about being dying, now for some reason, this dead octopus is quiet again.

Just as I was wondering whether I should ask Squidward, Yin Zhi strode over and, like Ye Rong and the others, bowed deeply to him.

"His Majesty."

Chen Cheng could tell from his address of "Your Majesty" that it was just the emotion of a long-awaited reunion. In fact, many people who knew his identity and bowed to him for the first time had this emotion.

They didn't truly revere him; they only revered the class identity represented by his bloodline, not him as a person.

Of course, Chen Cheng couldn't possibly feel that they disrespected him just because he sensed this. After all, why should others have to be respectful to him from the start?

"Hey, get up. This time, I'm the one who caused you trouble."

Chen Cheng sighed as he thought of Feynman and his companion.

It seems his previous plan to launch a sneak attack can be cancelled; now he has no choice but to confront the garrisons of the five kingdoms head-on.

"How's it going on your end? Have you brought the remaining 20,000 Girujiwa under control?"

Chen Cheng asked.

Bu Jiu replied:

"We initially thought those guys were just there to deliver the remaining supplies, but when they were halfway there, it was as if they received some kind of order and launched an attack on us."

Fortunately, I was there at the time, preventing them from succeeding in their sneak attack. They've killed half of them, and the rest have had their collarbones hooked and are locked up.

"It seems the five kingdoms are about to make their move. Let's go see Commander Ye Rong first. This time, we must be prepared to annihilate them and reclaim the entire northern territory."

Chen Cheng's voice wasn't loud, but it was packed with information.

They had discussed annihilating the garrisons of the five kingdoms.

However, the problem is that their Great Wall Army is insufficient to deal with the high-end combat power of these five kingdoms.

Don't be fooled by the fact that there are only five marshals here, five demigod-level experts. Their home country can mobilize demigod-level experts from within the country to provide assistance at any time.

Furthermore, they never considered ruling the North, not only because they lacked the ambition, but also because it was unrealistic for the Great Wall Army to control the North.

With the current number of Great Wall soldiers, there is a slight shortage of manpower even to guard the Great Wall. Otherwise, Bu Jiu wouldn't have had to fight two opponents by himself; the Army Formation Demon God would have come to his aid long ago.

Chen Cheng noticed the concerns on their faces and then spoke up:

"It's simply that the enemy can quickly send strong reinforcements to the North, and to cut off such reinforcements, we must control the North and prevent them from coming over."

However, the Great Wall Army's command of the northern border was not only morally untenable, but also practically impossible due to manpower constraints.

"However, don't forget that I am now the emperor of the empire, and you are following my orders to reclaim the northern border, so it is entirely reasonable and legal in a moral sense."

As for the biggest problem in ruling the North, it is that you lack legal authority. You were just the Great Wall Guards before and did not have the qualifications to establish your own fiefdom. So even if you conquered the North, you would not gain the recognition of the North's inhabitants.

Now you have sufficient legal standing, and we also have our allies in the North.

Then Chen Cheng looked at Kui Niu.

Bu Jiu and the other two also looked at Kui Niu along with Chen Cheng, wanting to see why Chen Cheng was looking at Kui Niu.

The bull felt a bit embarrassed, as he had never crossed the Wall to the North before.

"Your Majesty, you'd better explain clearly, otherwise I, Old Niu, will feel uneasy being watched by them."

"It's very simple, Commander Kui Niu should not forget his race—the Orcs."

"Based on my investigations along the way north, there are definitely no fewer than ten million orcs living in the northern border. The orcs live in traditional tribal forms, and ordinary orc tribes will submit to the powerful orc king's tribe."

"As long as the Bull Chieftain can establish his banner and reputation, I believe many orcs will emerge from the snow-capped mountains and deep forests."

"At that time, we can recruit many orc warriors to join the army, liberate them from their primitive hunting life, and make them local guards of the territory we control."

In addition, considering the existing inhabitants of the North, I believe the vast majority of them would be willing to accept the Empire's rule.

As for the northern frontier, I think this Great Wall behind us will definitely come in handy.

Chen Cheng's last words were spoken softly, but upon closer examination, they were quite cruel.

He was not a saint. Chen Cheng could formulate a revolutionary plan against the Prince of Pingbei and his group because they had plenty of time.

The situation is different in the North. This land has always been snowy, and its main function is military.

Therefore, the people here naturally do not have a stronger sense of belonging to the empire as they do in the interior.

Now the five kingdoms are going to deal with the Great Wall Army. This is a matter of life and death for the Great Wall Army. Chen Cheng cannot sacrifice the lives of his loyal subordinates for people he doesn't even know.

That would be incredibly stupid.

Therefore, Chen Cheng did not mind using methods to manage the orcs, who were discriminated against by humans.

Of course, they have to accept it, and there will naturally be bloodshed in the process.

But these discriminated orcs owe them nothing.
