Zhuoshui Town is located southwest of Juyang City and belongs to Guangu City, Dongxing County, in the hinterland of Nanzhao State. It is equivalent to an outlet of the Great Swamp, and every beast tide will hit the human world from here.
The exit of the Great Swamp is much wider than that of Tianmen Town, and there is no dangerous terrain to block it. It relies entirely on artificial defense lines, and the 20th Army Corps has been stationed on the defense line for a long time.
The three major magical beast gathering places in Shaodian Kingdom, the Hengduan Mountains, the Great Swamp and the Xilin Sea, all have a magic tower built at the exit of the beast tide. The difference is the magician who presides over the magic tower. Among them, the magician from Tianmen Town has the highest strength. , reaching the elemental magician level, while the magicians in the other two places only have the taboo level.
There is a big difference between whether the person in charge of the magic tower is level 6 or level 7. This is what Qian You said. The magic tower in Zhuoshui Town cannot protect the entire exit of the swamp.
Ding Kui understood the situation in Tianmen Town and could roughly infer the situation in Zhuoshui Town after listening to Qianyou's words, so he asked: "Should we send someone to support Zhuoshui Town?"
"It depends on what you want. It would be best if you could support him." Qian You couldn't help but make the decision for Ding Kui.
"Compared with other places, Juyang City is more vulnerable to foreign enemy attacks. It is more urgent to establish a good relationship with the border guards. Help! We must go to support. I will personally lead the team there." Ding Kui did not hesitate.
"I come from Tianmen Town, and I have no shirking the responsibility when encountering this kind of situation. I must go to Zhuoshui Town to resist the beast tide." Qian You regards resisting the beast tide as his duty.
"Well, you go tell President Huan and ask him to stay in this city. Ding Fen, call the outpost and ask Shao Dianye to lead the special operations battalion and come back to see me."
Ding Kui's bodyguards were replaced by a group of new people, and old men such as Ding Chuan and Ding Cai were all devolved to take charge of a department. Only Ding Fen was still with him.
From Juyang City to the royal outpost, the trust eagle can fly there in about a quarter of an hour, and Ding Kui's order will be delivered quickly.
With the captain's command, Shao Dianye easily obtained the command of the special operations battalion, but he could only show off his power on the road. Dou Xiaoqi received the order to follow Shao Dianye to the lord's mansion, and he would definitely object to it elsewhere. .
After receiving the news, Shaodian Luan also wanted to go to Zhuoshui Town. "Last time I took the special operations battalion out, it was not fun at all. Please take me with you this time. I want to see the beast tide."
"No! It's not that I don't want you to see it, but your appearance will affect the arrangements for resisting the beast tide. Think about it, the eldest princess of the kingdom is on the front line, can the commander of the 20th Army feel at ease? He doesn't want to send the most powerful Elite troops protect you? The troops resisting the beast tide can't do anything without you." Ding Kui clearly refused.
"You can don't tell them. I disguised myself as your bodyguard. Who would know that I went to the front line?" Shao Dianluan was not happy.
"It still doesn't work. The beast tide will bring unexpected dangers. Warcraft are not humans. Without the restriction that those above level seven cannot attack those below level six, I cannot ensure your safety. Don't go!" Ding Kui said with a straight face.
"I am a fearless knight! Can a normal tide of beasts hurt me?" Shao Dianluan was not afraid at all.
"I order you in the name of the head of the family to stay obediently in Juyang City and not to go to Zhuoshui Town." Ding Kui had no choice but to act like the head of the family.
"Ding Kui! You are also my consort, can't you please accommodate me?" Shao Dianluan acted like a princess in a hurry.
"You can't compromise on things that are related to your safety! Honey, I need someone to look after me when I leave. Do you want Long Yan to come forward to manage this city?"
Is it appropriate for her to worry about the affairs of the city at this time? If you want to be a qualified wife, you must share the important responsibilities of your husband. I will leave the city of Juyang to you."
Ding Kui just didn't take Shao Dianluan to Zhuoshui Town. He knew that there were level 6 monsters in Tianmen Town, and he also encountered the Earth-turning Dragon King in the Great Swamp. There were no elemental magicians in Zhuoshui Town, so he was worried.
Shaodianluan failed to convince her husband, so she went to Gongzhuling to relax in anger.
This time, Ding Kui did not bring any staff to Zhuoshui Town. He only brought Ding Kun, Qian You, ten earl guards, twenty magicians supported by the magic guild, and troops from the royal outpost. After receiving the news, We left Juyang City that afternoon.
Shao Dianye was unable to continue commanding the special operations battalion and was temporarily assigned as captain of the count's personal guard, following Ding Kui. He entered the royal outpost through Shao Dianyin's relationship and was closer than the other two captains. Ding Kui.
"Lord Captain, could you please write to my father? Tell him about your support and care." He seized the opportunity to get close to Ding Kui.
"Yes, of course, you can give the letter to Qianyou when you go back, and he will help you pass it back to the capital." Ding Kui could sense Shao Dianye's expression of loyalty.
Qian You doesn't know how to help anyone. Except for Ding Kui, it's hard for others to find him.
"Thank you, sir! It is my blessing to be able to follow you in battle. Shao Dianfei and Shao Diancheng must be extremely jealous of me. They would be willing to go to the special operations battalion as a soldier even if they are allowed to do so."
Last time, Shao Dianfei was asked to protect the eldest princess. Shao Dianye felt a little uncomfortable. He had no chance to show off. When will he gain Ding Kui's trust? The three captains secretly wanted to compete.
Being able to follow Ding Kui on the expedition this time was a big bargain for him, and he would certainly not forget Ding Kui's kindness.
"Your father is my old boss. He always looked after me back then, so I won't treat you badly. As long as you follow me well, you will definitely have a good future in the future.
The special operations battalion is a samurai infantry battalion. You are a fearless knight who is not familiar with their fighting methods. This time our enemy is Warcraft. We don’t pay much attention to team combat. Personal strength is more important.
Your main responsibility is to protect low-level soldiers from sneak attacks by mid-level monsters, and to reduce the battle losses of the special operations battalion as much as possible. As for my safety, you can worry less about it, as a mere monster can't hurt me."
Ding Kui really wanted to promote Shao Dianye first. With his relationship with Shao Dianyin, he could build trust with Shao Dianye. In the past, the Director of Internal Security took good care of him.
"Yes, I will definitely remember your Lord's instructions." Shaodianye was reassured after receiving Ding Kui's personal promise.
Ding Kui led his team to travel day and night, and finally arrived at Zhuoshui Town on the morning of the third day.
There are four fortresses to the east of Zhuoshui Town, which are stuck in the shape of a "heart" at the exit of the swamp. Three of the fortresses are connected in an arc from north to south, and a continuous barracks is built on the arc, like a Crescent moon.
Aiming at the center of the crescent moon is the largest fortress. In the center of the circular fortress stands a magic tower. It seems that the entire military defense line is built around this fortress.
The 20th Legion specially sent a staff officer to welcome the reinforcements from Juyang City.
