() Hearing the call of the staff officer, Xia Xia and Yang Qi looked at each other in surprise. The two of them hurried to the sand table and took a closer look.
Sure enough, if all the barbarian frontline positions are lost, the empire will be faced with the barbarian second line of defense as thin as a piece of paper - and as long as the empire makes a breakthrough at any point here, I am afraid that the barbarian Eastern Army will be defeated.
The regiment will be completely trapped on the front line of the Far North Fortress.
The two locked eyes with excitement.
"Order - commend the frontline legions and order them to continue their efforts and strive for another breakthrough! The heavy equipment cluster is waiting behind them! As long as they make a final breakthrough at any point, the heavy equipment cluster will march straight in. This time, if the barbarians retreat again,
Then they will be beaten back to the Far North Forest by us!"
Xia Tian stood up and ordered with great excitement.
~~~~~~~~~
"Faster! Faster!"
On the surging fleet, a barbarian Sky Demon Warrior was brandishing a sword, floating on the bow of the first ship and shouting to him in a deep voice.
After hearing his order, the speed of the barbarian fleet increased again. Various wind techniques blew against the sails desperately, raising the speed of the warships filled with barbarian infantry and wolf cavalry again and again.
"Oh..." The barbarian Celestial Demon Zhan saw this scene and nodded with satisfaction.
"Young men, we are not far from the landing point. Do you remember Lord Long's words? In the last war, the Chinese Humanity Expedition to the West gave us painful memories. This time, it will be our fifth legion.
Pay tribute to them! When the time comes, everyone’s contribution will be great! Maybe you will be received by His Majesty the God for this honor!”
He screamed strangely and shouted to each ship, which immediately caused a burst of excited screams and wild laughter from each ship.
Then, the fleet headed south crazily under the extremely violent wind sequence.
~~~~~~~~~
"Faster! Faster!"
Su Ping led Zhou and Du forward carefully.
Not far away from them, the flames of war were rising on a mountain ridge.
Although he was surprised and happy that the empire actually reached the front line of the Great Wall, an uneasy feeling lingered more and more in Su Ping's heart - that weird camp, and the inexplicable slaughter of cubs by the barbarians.
Although Su Ping couldn't figure out why, a scout's intuition told him that anything abnormal must be a monster!
We have to report what we saw quickly! We don’t know why, but those crooked staff officers may not know it, and the commander-in-chief and Chief of Staff Xia may not be able to guess it.
Su Ping thought dullly, but he urgently urged Zhou and Du behind him.
While the three of them were leaping wildly, they nimbly slipped through the gaps in the battlefield. Finally, they gradually disappeared into the south of the mountains along the Great Wall's defense line.
~~~~~~~~~
"Oh...it's really a good place!"
The Barbarian Celestial Devil looked proudly at the beach in front of him and the endless snowfield behind him.
Behind him, large numbers of barbarians jumped off the boats that had sunk to the shore. They laughed and screamed wildly, and gradually gathered together to form long queues.
"Let the little ones move quickly! Organize the army quickly! We will use a forced march to cut off the human army's retreat laterally! Build a defense line on the Mapoling line - it is said that the Chinese once guarded us there for eight days.
We don’t need so long. Mr. Long Er said that we only need to defend for three days. The Chinese people who are trapped in the snowfields of the Far North will be cut off from their backs and face the pursuit and attack of our superior forces in front, and will completely collapse.
!”
The barbarian Cang Qiong Demon Zhan turned around and shouted.
…
In the military formation that quickly formed behind him, strange screams and cheers started to sound one after another.
Immediately, Cang Qiong Demon War drew out his sword amidst the wild shouts.
"Young men, let us stab the Chinese people in the flesh and accomplish great feats that will be commended by our god! March to the snowy plains of the far north! Kill!"
Amidst the strange and fanatical shouts, the columns of the barbarians stirred. They were already cutting across the snowy plains of the Far North with a rapid march.
~~~~~~~~~
"What? Under the leadership of your company commander, when you came back from the deep north, you discovered several strange camps along the way? The barbarians are still slaughtering young animals on a large scale, and there seems to be signs of removing the nomadic camps?"
Xia Tian looked at Zhou Yibin and Du Wanqing in front of him in shock.
"What's the specific situation? Where is your company commander?" he asked urgently.
"The company commander went to His Highness. His mission was to conduct a search in the far north. He had to go and give orders first. But he always felt that this series of circumstances was strange, so he asked us to report separately. The specific situation is as follows...
"
Zhou Yibin thought for a while and started describing it.
Xia Tian's face became more and more horrified as he described it.
…
"How is it possible... How dare the barbarians dismantle those nomadic camps? The losses they suffered when transporting grain from the Western Continent were too great. Didn't they rely on those nomadic camps to support part of the food to reduce the loss to an acceptable range? How is it possible...
…”
"Could it be that they were cornered by us at the Far North Fortress? They had to mobilize the meager troops in the forest to defend? But the time didn't match up. At that time, we were still fighting against the Daling River, and they were still fighting
You didn't realize that we were playing for real, so you started to get anxious? How is that possible?"
"It's heavily guarded. It's more like a defensive reconnaissance than a suspected large-scale grain transfer station that's guarded against infiltration and destruction? Su Ping's analysis makes sense... Ever since we found out during a battle that it was very difficult to succeed, we haven't done much infiltration.
It destroyed their food supply..."
"And if it's to prevent infiltration and damage, why did they put the heavily guarded sentry so far away? And put it on the top of the mountain? It seems more like there is something that doesn't want us to see on the mountain, but is pretending to be a food transit
The way you stand..."
Xia Tian couldn't help but murmur, and then he looked at Zhou and Du again.
…
"How did you determine that it was a grain transfer station? Are there grain trucks coming and going?"
he asked urgently.
"Yes sir, there are many."
Zhou Yibin replied.
"That's weird... Generally speaking, places where grain trucks come and go frequently are indeed likely to be food transfer stations, but there is no need to spread the warning so far... To prevent reconnaissance, not to prevent vandalism? Why?
possible……"
"Grain trucks need to come in and out frequently. In addition to food transfer stations, what other types of places are also needed?"
Xia Tian suddenly seemed to think of something. His expression was a little pale, and he was a little confused and unbelievable, but he asked the staff behind him.
"Temporary large-scale military camps are also needed, sir - if you don't store enough food in advance."
A staff officer thought for a while and replied.
…
"I think those weird places are more like hiding places for troops, sir. If you think about it, it's true that food transfer stations need frequent access to food trucks, but places hiding troops also need it! And, if you think about it this way, then, be careful
It’s easy to explain why it’s so far away—there’s a barbarian ambush there, a large number of ambush troops!”
A staff officer suddenly guessed with a pale face.
"I think so too……"
Xia Tian murmured horribly.
"But how did they come... There was no warning at all from the west, and our scouts didn't find any abnormalities in troop movements - we have been paying close attention to this since the four wars..."
Immediately, he murmured and asked again.
"What we are concerned about is only the large-scale mobilization of troops, and we can only pay attention to this. But if they come in small groups..."
One of the staff officers suddenly turned pale again.
…
"So..." Yang Qi, who had been listening silently on the side, also became extremely solemn.
"There's something weird! Sir, there's definitely something weird!" Xia Tian's face showed a hint of surprise and panic.
"Sir, think about the whole process of this war - at first, the barbarians seemed to think that we were just trying to contain the war, and they were really caught off guard by us, so they showed signs of defeat. This is normal."
"Then, our heavy-armed group was trapped in the snowy plains of the Far North by a mysterious wolf-riding commander of the barbarians! That commander was indeed extremely cunning - at least one with a very strategic vision and excellent tactical skills. But
Where was the Wolf Cavalry commander from the beginning? Why did we never seem to encounter that commander despite having fought against the Wolf Cavalry in various battles?"
"And when the barbarians found out about His Highness, why didn't they send him out to attack and kill His Highness? You know, the barbarians hate His Highness to the core! With such a good opportunity, how could they not send out their smartest commander?"
…
"So, this barbarian wolf cavalry commander seemed to have suddenly appeared out of nowhere when he discovered that our heavily armored group was trying to cut off their retreat laterally! But why? They have been
Why did you hide that commander?"
Xia Tian's tone was full of surprise and uncertainty.
"Then, we encountered unprecedented difficulties on the front line of the Great Wall, and we have only broken through the first line of defense of the barbarians - but I suddenly thought, why can we break through? Are the barbarians really unable to hold on? The frontline report said that every day
When the barbarians cannot hold on any longer, there will always be something wonderful or extremely lucky, and there will be just enough reinforcements! Why is this?"
"And the reason why they suddenly seemed like they couldn't hold on any longer when we started to think about retreating, let us taste the sweetness, and wanted to finish the battle in one battle and continue the attack. Why is this?"
…
As the whole room approached, everyone seemed shocked by the series of questions raised by their chief of staff, but Xia Tian's face was filled with ferociousness in the series of questions.
"Connecting all of this, all of this points to a name that although it is difficult to imagine, it is very likely to exist! Longer!"
"He came to the Eastern Front, and he is on the Eastern Front right now! And he seems to have a big plan! He is leading us step by step into his trap without knowing it! Big plan!"
Xia Tian gritted his teeth and said!
Just two words, but it caused an uproar in the headquarters!
"Impossible!" "No way!" "How could it be possible!" exclamations sounded one after another in the headquarters. (To be continued.)
