From Skaven to God of War

Chapter 224, Rat War's Decision
Shu Zhan was indeed a qualified commander. He was not defeated by such a horrifying scene and was thinking about a way out.

Most of the Eastern Expeditionary Force was lost in the attack of Falling Star. The dead ratmen didn't even leave their bodies behind. They turned into charred ashes, which were stirred by the waves in the young strait, dyeing the sea a turbid black color.

No matter how hesitant and confused you are, you have to let it go. The fleeing rats were gathered together bit by bit. Even though most of them were wiped out at once, the remaining rat army was still huge.

While thinking, the option of turning back was the first one that Shuzhan abandoned, even though he couldn't help but be afraid of such a horrific scene.

All the core forces he controlled in the Eastern Expeditionary Force were destroyed. He couldn't go back now, and Bai Shu wouldn't let him go back either.

Soon, an order arrived, confirming Shu Zhan's judgment.

The white rat knew everything that happened here, but did not express anything.

He is still asking the Rat War to move forward.

But even if we want to move forward, we still face many problems.

The continental corridor has been interrupted.

One after another, the rats kept returning. Such a horrifying scene did not completely destroy their morale, or it could be said that their morale had never been high. More than a million rats were buried in the turbid and rolling sea water. The Rat War was really an unexpected disaster.

Sheng Qi was not targeted, perhaps because the bathtub battleship fleet assembled by this guy was too trivial and did not look threatening at all.

Shu Zhan climbed onto the high platform, staring at the surging waves in the strait in front of him, his expression gradually becoming terrifying. Shu Zhan had not yet figured out where the attack came from, but Shu Zhan felt that this would not be the end. He had no other basis, just intuition.

A large number of ratmen are still being supplied to Shu Zhan. The Eastern Expeditionary Force, which has suffered heavy losses, is replenishing its troops at a very fast rate. However, the more this happens, the more uneasy Shu Zhan becomes.

Shu Zhan's intuition is very sharp. In such anxiety, one day after the attack, when the turbulent waves stopped.

Shu Zhan made a judgment.

Countless rat warriors and young rats were pushed into the strait by the Rat War. Due to the absence of the supervision team, this order could not even be smoothly executed in the Eastern Expeditionary Force.

Those loyal guys gathered around Shu Zhan and were all destroyed in the terrifying flying star.

Shu Zhan personally supervised the progress of this matter. He waved the flag and roared, sending teams of ratmen into the sea.

Instead of defending, he chose to take the initiative to attack in that anxiety.

Countless ratmen warriors were floating in the sea, swimming towards the other side in a panic.

The rats were not complete landlubbers, and swimming was not a difficult thing for them. Although it was the first time for the rats in the Eastern Expeditionary Force to come into contact with such a wide and salty river, the hole created by the flying star, although it cut off the land bridge connecting the two continents, did not really create a strait that was wide enough to make people despair.

Countless ratmen fell into the water. These ratmen warriors armed with only simple weapons almost filled up this young strait and began to land on the opposite continent.

It’s almost done. Shu Zhan estimated the number of rat people who were driven down the strait, and when he felt it was almost done, he jumped up without hesitation.

Dive suddenly into the turbid sea water.

This was a massive landing that occurred shortly after the horrific attack, and Rat War was indeed more courageous and radical than the average ratman.

He sensed a possibility. From the perspective of a commander and general, if the enemy stationed an army on the opposite side, he would be completely blocked here. At that time, no matter how many ratmen and supplies the White Rat sent to him, he would not be able to rush to the opposite side.

The increasing number of troops and resources might lead to a second attack.

Shu Zhan directly identified such a terrifying force as an attack by a heretic god, but this arrogant guy obviously did not respect the gods enough. After being rescued by the flag blessed by Du Yuan, he did not pray to the gods or lose control of himself in panic. Instead, he thought about how to deal with such a situation.

He was not as pious as his predecessor, the Spear Rat, and was more daring. He thought about how to deal with gods, although they were heretical gods.

The war must continue. If he retreats and shows cowardice at this time, then the end will not be good for him. Now is his weakest time. It is not like the Second War of Gods just ended. He is still a God-given person, but the Ratman Kingdom is no longer short of generals who can command the army.

The war had to continue, and we had to take a gamble.

Landing on the other side of the strait, with the black dragon flag raised high, he climbed onto a huge rock. His wet appearance could not diminish the dignity of Shu Zhan in the slightest. The young ratmen and rat warriors who had just swam across the strait in a mess, all looked at Shu Zhan with admiration.

The Rat War is already a legend, an absolute legend in the Ratman Kingdom.

The loud shouts were widely echoed, with sharp and excited screams in response. Rat War raised the scarlet spear in his hand, and countless wet rat warriors also raised their spears.

"For the gods!"

"For the gods! For the gods!"

"War, honor, everything!"

"Commander-in-Chief of Rat War! Commander-in-Chief of Rat War!"

It turned out that even without the suppression of the Supervisory Team, commanding a large army would not be a troublesome task for Shu Zhan.

Rat Zhan made promises again. Blood mushrooms, weapons, land, the qualification to join the Rat Raiders, and the final prize that was always the finale and always so useful, the reward from the Rat Warlord, all of these were thrown out by him.

Although at this moment, most of the promises in this list are actually somewhat unrealistic. The last huge battle has almost bankrupted the Rat War, and it has not yet fully recovered. As for the weapons and land, the weapons still have to wait for subsequent transportation, and there is no sign of the land for the time being.

The Rat Raiders are even more empty talk. Rat Zhan himself has no blood mushrooms left, so where would he get the resources to form new Rat Raiders? The most practical of these things is the reward from the Rat Warlord.

But this does not prevent Shuzhan from throwing these out without any burden.

With a simple mobilization, a large group of ratmen gathered under the black dragon flag and began to charge along the remaining half of the continental corridor in this small world.

The Rat War increased the bounty on the enemy tenfold.

This brought excitement to the rat warriors. Of course, Shuzhan could not fulfill such a promise, but it didn't matter. He believed that someone would help him fill this vacancy.

Such a reckless advance almost put his entire retreat into the hands of the guys behind him. At this time, it would be extremely easy to target and deal with Rat Zhan.

As long as the reinforcements are cut off, Shu Zhan will be easily forced into a desperate situation. Shu Zhan can think of this, and there must be other people in the Ratman Kingdom who can think of it as well.

However, Shu Zhan still chose the most radical plan. He really did not trust those rat priests, those rat lords, and even the group of temple guards. He was also noncommittal, but he did not doubt Bai Shu.

Amid the shouts, the huge ratman army launched a charge.

Shu Zhan’s judgment was correct. Shortly after the flying star fell, two forces were mobilized from two directions.

Just after the huge rat army landed, a ripple appeared on the sea surface here, and tall figures floated to the surface one after another, a group of uninvited guests, a group of guys with fine collars, sharp teeth, gill holes on the cheeks, and slender snake tails.

The leader among them even had four arms. They appeared in this sea area and stopped in the young strait, not intending to leave.

It was obvious that the visitor had bad intentions.

As the core area of ​​this small world, the main continent has a more adaptable climate and more abundant resources, so the competition there is naturally more intense. One race after another comes onto the stage of this prosperous continent as the protagonist, and gradually withdraws in rounds of struggle.

About a thousand years ago, the pattern of this continent was completely determined. One race completely rose up and drove other races into the continuous mountains or into the wild forests, becoming the absolute controller and protagonist of this continent.

A vast empire was established and has been maintained to this day amidst the storms and mists. Yes, this continent has a unified imperial structure and nominally belongs to a unified empire. Although this empire has been on the verge of death due to the coming of the gods and the regional divisions indirectly brought about by the coming of the gods, this empire has not yet perished and still exists in name.

Its existence makes the rules of the game for the gods who descended to the main continent different from those for Du Yuan and other guys who directly parachuted into the wilderness to fight in a melee at the beginning.

The gods occupied one area after another with their own beliefs, and a large number of missionaries traveled around in various areas that nominally belonged to the huge empire but were actually completely independent.

It was more of a conflict of faith, not as barbaric as the subcontinent where Du Yuan landed, where wars of genocide were fought with all one's might.

Of course, if they really cannot win the battle on faith, the gods will not give up and will command their believers to launch a holy war of heavenly punishment.

But overall it is more harmonious and civilized.

By the way, this race that occupied this continent and built a prosperous civilization and a unified empire early on is also a famous star race.

human race.
