Being a commander is not a simple matter. He has to constantly plan how to fight and solve unnecessary internal problems. Li Ling hates this.
However, this was Yate's order, and everyone recognized it. Li Ling really couldn't refuse, so he could only obey the public.
Everyone believed that Li Ling was the strongest among the reinforcements. This alone convinced everyone. No matter whether Li Ling had any clever tricks or chance to withstand Yate's punch, that was not the most important thing.
, what matters is that everyone sees it with their own eyes.
Fighting is cruel and inhumane at any time, let alone fighting a group of completely crazy ice clams, which is even more tragic. The piles of corpses in front of you prove this.
"Now it seems that all that's left is to clean up the battlefield." Yat left in a hurry after appointing Li Ling as the commander. He was the general guard, so he was naturally busy with his affairs.
"It's really cruel. Scenes like this are the most brutal and bloody scenes I have ever seen since I became a killer." Wood followed Li Lingzhi and said.
"Wood, please tell everyone to clean up the battlefield. We will rebuild a camp later to prepare for another attack by the ice clams in a month." Li Ling asked Wood to do this, but he was really too lazy to go there himself.
"Okay, Commander, I will go immediately." Wood smiled and went to convey Li Ling's intention.
"Clean up the battlefield, why? Is such a thing worth doing?" Such a thing is dirty and meaningless, so naturally some people will object.
Although Wood repeatedly conveyed Li Ling's intention, no one was willing to clean up the battlefield. It was one thing to find it dirty, but another thing. When seeing those corpses, they would think that such a day would happen to them.
Who is willing to clean up the battlefield personally?
Li Ling knew that Wood couldn't handle it, so he had to take action personally and said to everyone present: "Most of the people who died on the battlefield should be their friends, and you don't want your friends to die in the wilderness. Besides, clean up
The battlefield is a kind of wake-up call for you. Only after looking at the bloody corpses, you will know that you have to fight desperately to save your life, and you will have a glimmer of hope to survive in the battle."
After listening to Li Ling's speech, everyone silently went to the battlefield to collect the wreckage. The bloody wreckage contained not only their friends, but also those disgusting ice clam corpses.
"Li Ling, what level of strength are you at?" Ant couldn't help but ask Li Ling.
"Ante, my strength is at the early stage of the county warrior level. Believe it or not, I have this strength." Li Ling's answer to Ant was the truth.
Ant shook his head in complete disbelief and said: "You are not telling the truth. If you are in the early stage of the county warrior level, you will be damned if you can catch Art's punch."
Li Ling couldn't make Ant believe it, and there was no need for Li Ling to make it so clear to Ant. Whether he believed it or not was entirely his business and had nothing to do with him.
After collecting the remains in one place, people began to dig pits to bury the bodies. The soil on this ice and snow plain was very solid, and the soil was generally under one meter of snow, so
, the corpses were almost always buried in snow, without soil.
After cleaning up the battlefield, the camps that were destroyed by the ice clams are now beginning to show their signs. Some tents have completely collapsed, while some tents are still standing.
"Now we are rebuilding the camp. Let's take advantage of the light snow in these few days to work harder to rebuild our camp. By then, we will need a good meal to replenish the lost energy." Li Ling said loudly.
Talk to the crowd.
The construction of the camp requires a lot of manpower. There are more than 700 people here, all of whom were used. In just one day, the completely destroyed camp was rebuilt.
After the camp was set up, everyone took out all the food stored in the camp and had a big meal. After the night of fighting, no one had eaten in the past two days and everyone was very hungry.
.
"Commander Li Ling, this is a tiger leg, don't you want to eat it?" Someone saw Li Ling staring blankly in the direction of the ice and snow plain, so he took the initiative to bring a roasted tiger leg over and handed it to Li Ling himself.
Li Ling gave in and said, "I don't need to eat this, I just need this." Li Ling took out a wild ginseng and put it in his mouth and started chewing it.
"Commander Li Ling, are you eating grass?" The man opened his mouth like an oh shape.
"This is not grass, it is wild ginseng. Oh, by the way, how long can your food last?" Li Ling knew this was a key question.
"Hey, I ate a lot of meat today, and I probably won't be able to survive for a week in terms of food." The man said with emotion.
"In this way, after the meat is finished, all of you and I will go out to collect wild ginseng. I hope that there will be enough wild ginseng in this forest to last you a few months." Li Ling picked up the wild ginseng and chewed it in his mouth.
Got up.
"Are you just going to eat this?" the man said in disbelief. These grass-like things didn't suit their taste at all. They all like to eat something with strong taste.
"Well, that's it." Li Ling said.
"Li Ling, give me a wild ginseng to chew on." Wood and Baijia came to Li Ling's side together, and Wood reached out to Li Ling and asked for the wild ginseng.
"Eat sparingly, I didn't pick much last time." Li Ling threw two wild ginseng to Wood and Baijia.
The man saw the three of them chewing something that looked like grass and roots with great gusto, and he felt a little overwhelmed.
After a few days, the food was really not enough, so Li Ling sent everyone to search for some wild ginseng. In the snow forest with a radius of ten miles, everyone found a total of 5,000 wild ginseng, and almost all of them were eaten.
Xue Sen was turned upside down.
"Five thousand wild ginseng is enough for us to eat for a while." Li Ling calculated that there are seven hundred people in total, so three wild ginseng used to make soup can satisfy the appetite of ten people, so five thousand wild ginseng
It can last for nearly a month.
One month is just one month, at least hold on for a month first. Who knows how many of these people will die next time the ice clam attacks.
At first, everyone was reluctant to eat wild ginseng, but when everyone tried this new thing for the first time, they liked it very much. It is much more delicious than eating any other meat.
"Commander Li Ling really has an idea. This thing he made is really warm to the body. In this ice and snow, drinking this bowl of soup is perfect."
Many people began to praise Li Ling, which made Li Ling feel a little relieved.
Half a month passed. During this period, Hughes came once. This time, Hughes's attitude towards Li Ling was much better. Li Ling was the commander appointed by Yate himself. Of course, Hughes would not neglect him. Moreover, Yate
His job title is three levels higher than that of Hughes.
"Li Ling first congratulates you for commanding this group of reinforcements." Hughes came to Li Ling's camp. As a leader, he must have his own separate camp.
"What's there to congratulate? Even if I lead them, I'm still just a reinforcement." Li Ling said with a sarcastic smile.
"You can't say that. Very few people get the attention of General Guard Yate, but you are an exception." Hughes said in a flattering tone.
"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense. What are you doing here today?" Li Ling didn't want to continue talking nonsense with Hughes.
Hughes said in Li Ling's ear: "Li Ling, you must save your life. As long as you can save your life, the rewards after the battle will be very generous. I tell you this because I treat you as a friend.
"
Li Ling just smiled miserably. It would be a fantasy to save his life. Let's not talk about the strong fecundity and large number of those ice clams. Let's talk about the fact that the food is a problem in front of him, and he can still survive like this.
However, Li Ling wouldn't tell Hughes this, and even if he did, this guy wouldn't be able to solve it.
"Is this what you came here to tell me?" Li Ling didn't think Hughes came all the way here just to say this.
Hughes gave a thumbs up and said, "Li Ling, you are really smart. No wonder General Guard Yate appreciates you so much."
"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Li Ling asked.
"Li Ling, do you know the Ice Clam King?" Hughes said with a mysterious smile.
Li Ling felt that this Hughes had something to say, so he did not answer the question and asked him to continue talking.
"The Ice Clam King is the king among those ice clams. He is an old toad that has been around for thousands of years. As soon as the Ice Clam King takes action, your team will surely collapse very quickly." Hughes was still trying to be careless.
"What on earth do you want to say? Be direct." Li Ling hated Hughes for always telling the truth.
Hughes smiled mysteriously and said: "As long as you can kill an Ice Clam King and dig out the Ice Clam King's inner elixir and give it to me, I will help you escape from this place. You must know that it is very difficult to escape from here.
It’s very difficult.”
For Li Ling, this condition must be said to be very tempting, but at present, Hughes is really untrustworthy. This guy acted very serious at first, but unexpectedly he turned out to be a selfish and evil guy.
"Sorry, you have found the wrong person. I will not joke with everyone's lives. Moreover, once the Ice Clam King comes, we will only retreat and not fight." Li Ling answered Hughes straightforwardly.
Ling knew very well that Hughes wanted the Ice Clam King's inner elixir just so that he could make a breakthrough in his cultivation. This guy must have reached a bottleneck in his cultivation, so he came up with this crooked idea.
"Li Ling, you have to think carefully before replying to me." Hughes' entire face began to darken.
"Don't think about it, I won't agree." Li Ling refused directly.
"Okay... Li Ling, you are so loyal, then you will hold on to your loyalty and become the food of ice clams together with your fellows, huh." After saying that, Hughes came out angrily.
