"Enough!" Ma Boyong shouted sharply. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard to believe that such a powerful sound could erupt from a short and fat body.
He looked around and spoke with a stern face, "Gui Jian and other things, don't mention it now. The battlefield is changing rapidly. If you take away other people's teams, how can others fight? Do you want me to send some more cultivators to the losing side?
?”
When everyone heard this, they immediately fell silent.
"Leaving the rear may not be the most difficult task," Ma Boyong glanced around, his eyes bright, "As long as we can buy enough time for the main force to escape, it will be enough. Thirty hours, as long as we can survive thirty hours,
Even if the mission is over, we don't care how you survived."
Lin Tingtao's mouth twitched, and he raised his hand to ask, "Ma Zhunzheng, that means...fifty hours from now?"
Within twenty hours, foreign reinforcements will arrive, plus thirty hours of resistance, for a total of fifty hours.
"That's right," Ma Boyong nodded, with a solemn look on his face, "if the alien reinforcements have not arrived in fifty hours, you can evacuate on your own. If within fifty hours, the aliens have overtaken the defense zone, you'd better all
He died in battle... There is no need to hold you accountable, there is no joke on the battlefield."
"How many high-level, mid-level and low-level jade immortals are there in the foreign reinforcements?" Lin Tingtao asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know, I'm not the commander-in-chief of a foreign race," Ma Boyong replied impatiently, "Prince Lin, you are also from a feudal family. Where can you get such accurate information on the battlefield? Anyway, since they are reinforcements, you can think about it yourself."
The real person and the big demon from Xiaohu stopped talking when they heard this, and all looked at Chen Taizhong.
Chen Taizhong actually didn't like being the protagonist. He even regretted attending this meeting. However, when he heard such an arrangement, he was a little unconvinced. "My Xiaohu suffered heavy casualties. Has Ma Zhunzheng considered this?"
"I've already said that I'm very optimistic about you." Ma Boyong smiled at him, "Besides, your Celestial Eye Technique is very powerful. I believe you can lead the team to find the best fighter opportunities."
Why do I feel like this is an irony? Chen Taizhong raised his hand and scratched his forehead, thought about it and then said, "I think Xiaohu can keep the rear. But I want to know the locations of the Zhenyi Camp and the Wolf Clan Camp.
.”
Ma Boyong's face dropped, and it took him a long time to ask, "This is a secret, why do you want to know?"
In fact, for high-level cultivators, this is really not a secret, but for low-level cultivators, it is indeed a secret. Knowing the location of each camp will cause personnel flow problems, and it can easily shake the cultivators' will to fight.
"If you don't tell me, I won't stay in Xiaohu," Chen Taizhong replied calmly, "I shouted, how much loss was reduced for each team, what did you reward me?"
"Are you asking for rewards with your merits?" Ma Boyong's face fell. He couldn't help but feel ashamed. Asking for rewards with merits is the behavior that a battle commander can't stand the most.
"If I really want to ask for a reward, can you allow me to be the queen?" Chen Taizhong smiled coldly, "If you insist on thinking so, let's go to Fairy Yan Wu to argue clearly."
He never felt that he had anything to do with Fairy Yan Wu, but many people said that Fairy Yan Wu had something to do with him. He didn't mind borrowing the tiger skin for some use.
Ma Boyong stared at him blankly for a long time, then took out a jade slip, carved it and threw it to him, "This is what you want. Okay, go prepare for the work behind the scenes..."
Three hours later, the cultivators in the Xiaohu camp watched helplessly as numerous cultivator teams emerged from camp.
"Master Chen, are you a bit hasty in agreeing to this?" Lin Tingtao's mood was very complicated.
"It's better to be the queen as you want," Chen Taizhong snorted and replied expressionlessly, "There is a saying in our earth world that life is like rape. Since you can't resist, try to learn to enjoy it."
"But forcibly moving to the rear... No matter how you look at it, you can't see the feeling of enjoyment," the dragon demon shouted loudly.
However, everyone can only make noises. Since Chen Taizhong made it clear just now that he can stay, no one has strongly resisted the task. Chen Taizhong, the thorn in the side, has already agreed. Who still has the courage to persist?
It is clear that it is a task with 100,000 battle merits. Even the orcs do not dare to argue anymore, otherwise Ma Boyong really has the power to enforce battlefield discipline. I am not letting you work in vain, I want to give you the battle merits!
The war merits awarded to the Orcs by the Humans are also hard currency in the Orcs, and can be exchanged with the Humans for many things that the Orcs lack.
"No need to say so much, let's prepare for the battle," Lin Tingtao sighed, "first set up defensive positions..."
It is relatively easy to arrange defensive positions. The cultivators of Xiaohu have arranged five defensive formations. The plum blossom-shaped structures are all able to prevent the attacks of the primary Jade Immortal. In addition to the plum blossoms, there are four small defensive formations that can also prevent attacks.
The attack of a high-level immortal.
These nine defensive formations have basically emptied the wealth of most cultivators, but at this time, I really don’t care about so much. This defensive battle should be the most difficult one since the establishment of Xiaohu Camp.
fighting.
Dare to come to rescue the besieged parasitic wasp colony, and there is no need to assume the strength of the upcoming alien reinforcements.
If you can't get over this hurdle, no matter how many supplies you have in your storage bag, what's the use?
In the defensive formation, there were ballistas removed from the damaged spirit boats, as well as about thirty immortal-killing crossbows. The remaining sixteen spirit boats and war boats in the team were also assigned to various defensive formations.
Chen Taizhong and Jiao Yao were given the task of mobile operations on the outside. They had no choice but to do so. Master Chen was recognized as a guerrilla strongman. As for choosing Jiao Yao, it was purely because the Jiao clan could run fast.
Even with such a desperate mission, the cultivators in Xiaohu did not give up their efforts. After setting up the defensive array, Lin Tingtao called everyone for a meeting to discuss how to successfully prevent this attack.
At the end of the discussion, everyone unanimously decided that to block the attack, we must fight, but we cannot blindly shoulder it. Once the defensive formation is broken, we can choose to escape in a spirit boat and annihilate the opponent in motion. At least we must attract a lot of firepower.
OK.
The current defensive formation is still very strong. Five of the nine defensive formations have been destroyed, and the remaining four can still respond to each other.
Everyone also agreed that when the fourth to last defensive formation is breached, the task of the cultivators in the remaining three defensive formations is to break through the defensive formations with all their strength.
Highlighting the defensive formation does not mean abandoning the defense. You can also use harassment tactics to guerrilla the opponent. You must work hard to block the reinforcements for thirty hours.
The current Xiaohu team has been reduced from the 2,000 people at the time of departure to 1,200 people. Including the seriously injured, the number is only 1,500 people. It can be imagined that the defense task is heavy.
If they hadn't obtained some ballistae and immortal-destroying crossbows from other teams, they really wouldn't have had much confidence that they could carry them for thirty hours.
However, Chen Taizhong cheered everyone up, saying that Jiao Zhenren and I were guerrillas outside and would do our best to disrupt them. If the other party could not effectively organize an attack, it would be relatively easy to survive this period of time.
The dragon demon is a little unhappy. It thinks that its strength is in "leadership". Now it is allowed to go into battle shirtless as a thug. It feels a bit inferior to its talents.
"Brother Jiao, this is the time to test your judgment," Lin Tingtao smiled and poured the ecstasy soup into it.
"Peripheral guerrilla warfare requires the most strategic vision. Where is the most suitable place to attack? Regardless of your speed, we will not be able to complete this kind of mission successfully. We must have a master tactician like you to achieve the most perfect effect...
…In terms of strategic vision alone, who else would you choose to be in the entire Xiaohu Camp?”
The dragon demon nodded with a smile, accepting the flattery, then his face sank, and he said in a depressed voice, "The problem is that this thing is too dangerous... I don't want to die yet!"
The reason why it has been emphasizing its leadership ability is that, firstly, it thinks that it is really good at it, and secondly, it is actually more afraid of death. If it becomes a leader, its life will be easier to save.
"Whether you want to die or not has nothing to do with whether you want it or not," Chen Taizhong rolled his eyes and said coldly, "On the battlefield, the more fearful a person is of death, the faster he will die. I am out guerrilla all day long, do you think I am seeking death?
"
"That... makes sense," Jiao Yao nodded reluctantly.
Next, it was time to prepare for the war. Everyone did some simple drills and discussed how to deal with some emergencies. Twenty hours passed and the war was about to break out.
Chen Taizhong released Chunliang to inquire about the news. Xiao Qilin also knew the importance of this battle, so he set off without too much bargaining.
However, until twenty-four or five hours later, Chunliang still did not send back any information. The Xiaohu cultivator who was waiting for help was a little confused as to what was going on.
At the thirty hour mark, the dragon demon couldn't stand it any longer. It poked its head out from the folded space where it was hiding, and said in a muffled voice, "I'll go, where are the foreign reinforcements we promised?"
"Be patient," Lin Tingtao replied loudly, "Maybe there are scouts lurking here, don't expose them."
"Expose yourself, there are no foreign races at all!" Jiao Yao said loudly, "What kind of information is this? Chen Taizhong, you said...have you seen any foreign races?"
"No," a muffled reply came from the air, and Chen Taizhong did not show up. "My pet didn't find the alien race either... Isn't this a good thing? You must lose your life to be happy?"
"Your pet...hehe," the dragon demon let out a dry laugh of unknown meaning and stopped talking.
In this torture, another five or six hours passed, and the wolf demon couldn't hold it any longer, "Where are the foreign reinforcements? I'm going to ride on the horse, what kind of plan is this? It's comparable to Prince Lin's beacon."
"
"Let's talk about falling out," Lin Tingtao got angry and shouted loudly, "Isn't it a good thing that no reinforcements are coming? I hope that no foreign reinforcements will come within fifty hours!"
"It's over," the wolf demon was so angry that he beat his chest, "I'm talking to Prince Lin, can you just say nothing? There were no reinforcements coming... If you say that, reinforcements from foreign races must have arrived in large numbers!"
