The second clone was sent to arrange for people to keep an eye on the tauren and the floating mountain fire. The second clone, along with tens of thousands of fire spirits, was busy until around eight o'clock in the evening.
Of the one hundred and fifty scrap starships sent from Wumen Base, except for the fifty with protective shields that were converted into cannon fodder ships, the rest were all blown up by him and put into the system warehouse together with the modified cannon fodder ships.
After all, the space inside the base is limited. The fifty newly renovated cannon fodder ships, plus the remaining twelve, total more than sixty ships, which takes up a lot of space.
It's not safe to put it outside the base to shield it from the protection of the formation, so it's more convenient to put it away and put it out again when in use.
"There are still a dozen ships left, and we can make up a hundred."
Under the moonlight, the second avatar straightened up in the open space outside the base, holding several high-level beast cores in his hand. While recovering energy, he walked towards the pyramid in the base.
He poked him more than a hundred times in a row. Fortunately, he was a clone. If he were a clone, he would definitely be tired and his back would hurt.
We originally planned to gather a hundred starships to send to Huo Yi at the Graystone Base, but now it seems we can't get enough.
He wanted to slow down the use of the remaining sixty or so cannon fodder ships.
"Huo Er, how is the situation in Floating Mountain No. 7? Is the fire out?" Entering the pyramid hall, I met Huo Er head-on, talking to a few sentries.
"General!" Huo Er ran over: "I just asked the scout ship and the fire of the spiritual riot has not been extinguished yet. It is estimated that it will be late at night."
"Um,"
The second clone hummed and continued to move forward: "Go ahead and tell everyone to take the time to have dinner and rest for a while.
After the fire is extinguished, we will start working all night and try to bury the explosives before dawn, so as to avoid the arrival of other groups of bats at dawn."
"Okay general!"
Huo Er nodded subconsciously and hurriedly chased for a few more steps: "General, there is something else.
The sentry we sent out to monitor the tauren camp just came back to report that there was a riot in the tauren camp. It was so violent that even the house was burned down.
Many of our human prisoners of war have escaped, and there are thousands of them scattered all over the mountains and plains. I don’t know if they got any news, but most of them ran towards us.
It was dark, and it was in the wilderness, so the tauren didn't seem to be in a hurry to pursue it.
The sentry wants to ask if we can send troops to respond."
"Is it the sentry who wants to ask, or you?"
The second clone stopped, turned around, and glared at Huo Er with a stern face: "Use your brain, the prisoners of war have been banned from cultivation, how could they escape from the base where hundreds of thousands of tauren are guarding them?
They even ran specifically to our side. Could it be that the tauren were kind enough to give them directions and said there was a human base here?
This is obviously a trap. As long as we take in the escaped prisoners of war, the tauren will use this as an excuse to provoke.
We are busy cleaning up the Seventh Floating Sky Mountain right now, where do we have time to mind our own business?
Send the order and close the base gate. No one is allowed to enter, no matter who comes near."
"General, if it wasn't a trap, did those prisoners of war really escape on their own?"
Huo Er was a little unwilling and chased after him: "We made so much noise during the day. Maybe the Tauren were talking in the camp and happened to be overheard by the prisoners of war, so they ran this way.
We are all human beings. They took it out with great difficulty, but we are not allowed to enter the camp. Isn't it a little too cruel?"
"cruel?"
The second clone was slightly angry, thinking that Huo Er was still young, so he suppressed his anger and said: "As a general, you must be calm when encountering problems, and remember not to act emotionally.
Not to mention that this incident was too coincidental and there were too many doubts. It was obviously a trap.
Even if those prisoners of war are real, I can't put the entire base in danger because of them."
"But.."
Huo Er wanted to say something more, but was rudely interrupted by the second clone: "There is nothing more, just execute the order.
If you listen to too many stories and practice on the battlefield for a few more years, you will understand everything."
"Okay!" Huo Er nodded depressedly, his green face full of dissatisfaction.
"You, I originally thought you were stronger than Huo Yi, but it turned out that you are both childish. Let's go, I will go to the gate with you." The second clone turned around with a headache and walked out.
He originally wanted to take a rest, but unfortunately he couldn't rest now. If Huo Er's head got hot and he let people in, it would be troublesome.
At this time, it was time for hundreds of thousands of people to eat in the camp after a busy day.
At a glance, there were smoke curling up from cooking pots everywhere, and giant bats with their skins peeled off were placed on the fire to roast. These were all picked up on the battlefield, and they were enough to feed 200,000 people for a year.
In front of the camp's houses and campfires, people, including barbarians, fire spirits, ordinary human soldiers, and even blood monsters and giant bats, all gathered together to eat.
Although this was not the first time I had seen such a scene, the second clone still found it a bit jarring.
"You guys, just eat when you want to, so you can go to the toilet easily."
"Hoho, general, I am a blood monster. Where can a monster go to the toilet?"
"I know you are a blood monster. As long as you are in the military camp, you must act according to the rules, and monsters are no exception!"
Along the way, I met a few people who were messing around, and the second clone was not polite, even kicking and scolding them.
Especially when I saw a few people squatting on the ground, eating and drinking, and still saying hello to him, I was so angry that I didn't get angry.
The rich aroma of barbecue and food, mixed with the smell of stool, and all kinds of strange sounds, is enough.
Such a scene will never be seen on Earth.
When we arrived at the city gate of the base, it was already closed. When we climbed up the city wall, it was dark outside and as quiet as in space.
Because it is close to the activity range of giant bats, there are basically no wild animals in this area, and even small things such as mosquitoes and insects are rarely seen.
"General, please have a meal!"
The tauren camp is more than two hundred miles away from here. The prisoners of war ran on their legs, and they didn't have any spiritual power. It would take more than an hour to get there, and it was still early.
Some soldiers brought chairs, benches, and roasted bat meat. The second clone didn't mind it and sat down directly to eat.
When food enters the body, it is burned to ashes by the endless fire in the body, which can be regarded as providing some energy in disguise.
"This bat meat is not bad, you should sit down too!"
After eating a few mouthfuls, the second clone didn't bother to vent his anger with the child, so he asked Huo Er to sit down and drink with him.
Huo Er sat down, picked up a piece of roasted and crispy meat, took a few bites, and stopped: "General, if one day I become a prisoner of war, will you still want me?"
"Silly boy, can you be the same as outsiders?"
The second clone was so angry that he took the bone in his hand and threw it on Huo Er's head, saying angrily: "If these prisoners of war were our Langya soldiers, I would not blow up the bats during the day, but just blow up the tauren camp, and then
Should I wait until now?
Besides, we at Langya are invincible in every battle, so it will probably be difficult for you to become a prisoner."
I have always felt that system soldiers are not smart enough, but it turns out that being too smart is not always a good thing.
