There are aggressive invaders on the outside, approaching step by step. There are also various sneak attacks from unknown origins in the rear, some from the Blade Camp, some from the Vulture Camp, and even some weak-willed people from the Guards Battalion have begun to appear.
shake.
No matter how strong the fortress is, once it begins to disintegrate internally, no force can stop its collapse.
The same goes for Xie Chun's base.
When the Guards Battalion was flanked from both ends and suffered a large number of casualties, the Guards Battalion began to split within itself.
Even the deputy battalion officer of the personal guard battalion was a little unable to suppress him. Because this deputy battalion officer was Xie Chun's relative and Xie Chun's cousin.
Although he belongs to the Xie family, the strength of Xie Chun, his cousin, is obviously completely incomparable to Xie Chun. The reason why he became the deputy battalion officer is purely because of his identity, and he is Xie Chun's true one.
Cousins with the same grandfather are closely related by blood, so their level of trust is naturally different.
As for his deputy battalion officer, it would not be wrong to say he was incompetent, but it would not matter how prominent and popular he was.
However, it is often easy for people with connections to take advantage of others and neglect the cultivation of their own abilities. They always think about winning with their status and putting their greatest advantages on the table.
As a result, there will often be a situation in which one uses one's power to overwhelm others.
This is why several team captains previously asked Mr. Dao to lead the base instead of letting him, the deputy battalion officer, lead the base.
Because the squad captains of these guards battalions all know that their deputy battalion officer Xie Dong is very difficult to lead a battalion. With his talent, he can hardly be a deputy captain. It is estimated that it will be difficult for him to be a squad leader.
He serves as the deputy battalion officer, but most of the time he is just a sign, just like a Bodhisattva.
In real and specific battles, he is generally not allowed to deploy them.
But Xie Dong really didn't want to be left alone. At first, he couldn't get a word in, so that was it. But the situation was difficult, and Xie Dong felt that he should stand up and speak out, and he should stand up to boost morale and unite people's hearts.
For a person with connections like him, it would be okay if he did nothing, and the negative effects would not be big. But once he wants to increase his presence and wants to do something, he will often easily fall into a vicious circle of causing chaos.
At this moment, he called several team captains together.
"Everyone, you are all Mr. Xie's confidants, the people he respects most. Mr. Xie has entrusted you with important responsibilities. It can be said that he has handed over the lifeblood of the base to you. Now that you are being attacked both inside and outside, you must stand up.
Anyone can be swayed, but you absolutely cannot be swayed!"
Xie Dong made an impassioned speech and looked righteous.
Several team captains wanted to quarrel with him, but they couldn't handle the fact that he was the deputy battalion officer and Xie Chun's younger brother. They could only hold their noses and endure it.
One of the captains said: "Master Dong, the war is getting tense right now. You called all our captains here just to talk about this?"
"Yes, Mr. Dong, if you really have to worry, you might as well think about how to break the situation. The enemy is very insidious. He not only attacks the base, but also has strategies to attack the heart. At this time, you should stand up to win people's hearts, crush those rumors, and let the brothers
calm down, instead of being confused by the other side's false bounty and killing each other."
"That's right, no matter how hard we fight, we can't withstand the attack from both ends. At this rate, even if the guard camp is made of iron, how many nails can it drive?"
These squad leaders are definitely full of complaints and they are also feeling aggrieved.
How come the base, which was in a good situation yesterday, has collapsed to such an extent overnight. Our guard battalion has personally gone to battle, but the situation is still declining step by step, and there is no hope at all.
The more they fight, the more guilty they become, and the more they fight, the more discouraged they feel.
Although the Guards Battalion has a large number of people, it cannot withstand such consumption. Until now, they feel as if there are only two opponents dealing with them.
But the attack of the insect swarm and monsters only made them miserable.
It's not like the Guards Battalion has not considered taking the initiative. They organized several groups of death squads, hoping to take the initiative to avoid the swarm of insects and monsters, find the people behind it, and kill the enemy from the source.
But the opponents who had suffered losses before did not give them such a chance at all, and did not give them a chance to get close. Their death squads sent out batch after batch, but in the end they all failed without any suspense.
Instead, it was like someone was cutting a cake, losing troops one after another. The Guards Battalion has lost nearly a quarter of its troops since the battle.
This does not include the cost of internal strife.
Although the sporadic attacks from the Vulture Battalion did not pose much of a threat to the Guards Battalion, they could not resist the Blade Battalion joining in.
As death continued to approach the Blade Camp, many people began to defect, joined the bounty army, and began to gather people to pave the way for their own retreat.
There was even turmoil within the guard camp, especially in some areas with few people, and sporadic fighting occurred between the guard camps.
Many naughty guys sneaked up on their companions and used their heads as tokens of honor to help themselves survive.
Several team captains were also in a state of distress. Originally, they had planned to concentrate their forces again. But when they couldn't do it, they organized a breakout to preserve their strength.
But while they were still discussing, Xie Dong called him over. No wonder they were all impatient.
Xie Dong was suspicious. Seeing them contradicting each other made his suspicious heart even more irritated.
Could it be that the captains of these guards battalions also have a backlash in their heads and want to betray the base, betray Mr. Xie, and join the officialdom?
This is something Xie Dong can sit back and ignore no matter what.
These guys usually didn't have much respect for him, so that was fine. Xie Dong thought to himself that these arrogant warriors were quite capable, so he couldn't suppress them everywhere.
But as a matter of principle, that is definitely not possible.
"Everyone, now is not the time for you to complain about me. We are now bound in the same boat. If we don't take measures, no one here will survive."
"Then according to Master Dong's wishes, what should we do?"
"Yes, please give me some advice from Mr. Dong. If Mr. Xie has any tips for Mr. Dong, he should bring them out, right?"
A clever idea?
Xie Dong felt that the other party was mocking him, but there was no evidence. If Mr. Xie really had a clever idea, he wouldn't give it to him.
Although Xie Dong is a well-connected person, he knows how much information he has. Normally, he manages the team and can barely do it by relying on his connections and facial recognition.
When a war really breaks out or the situation becomes chaotic, he, Mr. Dong, will be blinded.
However, he does have an idea now.
His eyes were wandering, and he said mysteriously: "Everyone, at this point in the base, people's hearts are divided, and it is a foregone conclusion. What do you think is the most important thing now?"
When he asked this question, several captains were really moved by him. For a moment, they forgot to ridicule him.
What is the most important thing? They also want to know and are equally curious.
"Don't stare at me, tell me what you think first." Xie Dong said with a smile.
One of the captains was not polite: "Of course it is you who are the leaders who stand up and speak out, shout from the top, and stabilize the morale of the army!"
"That's right, as long as you leaders can hold your own, the brothers below will definitely hold their own."
"If you ask me, I have to give the brothers some sweet things, such as resources, food, women, etc. If we don't take these out and divide them up now, how long will it take?"
"That's right, the only things that can stimulate brothers now are these sweet things. If you want people to work hard, you have to have some justified benefits, right?"
Several captains have similar opinions.
After Xie Dong heard this, he didn't take it seriously.
"Everyone, in normal times, it is absolutely useful to use food and women to stabilize the morale of the army. But now, if you can't save your life, what do you need these for? If you give them to them, do they have to consider whether they can save them? The benefits that cannot be saved are equivalent to giving them in vain.
, it’s useless.”
"Moreover, even if they are given benefits, they will definitely not violate it in disguise?"
This does get to the point.
If you are given a favor, you will definitely not betray?
As for the current cohesion and loyalty of the base, no one dares to guarantee it.
Several captains looked at each other, and some couldn't help but ask: "Then based on Mr. Dong's opinion, what else can we do? Do we really want to escape separately? Let the base be scattered and destroyed?"
A sinister look flashed in Xie Dong's eyes: "The base must not be dispersed or destroyed. Others can have a way out. We are all Mr. Xie's confidants, and we have no way out."
This is the truth, and several captains rarely nodded in agreement.
No one can be pardoned by the official government. It is impossible for them to be pardoned. They are people with no real way out.
"Master Dong, please stop hesitating. If you have an idea, just say it."
Xie Dong said coldly: "If you are not ruthless, you will not be able to stand firm! These are extraordinary times, and extraordinary things must be done!"
"What's so extraordinary?"
Xie Dong said: "First of all, we must know what Mr. Dao means."
"Master Dao will definitely not have other thoughts. Like Master Xie, he is the main leader of the base. If the official pardons a few of us, it may not necessarily pardon Master Dao! He will never have any problems!"
"That would be easier!"
"We should unite with Mr. Dao and use thunderbolt methods to eliminate all the rebels in the base. Except for a few elites from the Guards Battalion and the Blade Battalion, none of them will be left alive!"
"ah?"
Everyone was shocked by Xie Dong's opinion. This is too cruel. Eliminate it directly? No room left at all?
"Is this too cruel? What if we kill the wrong person? There must be some people who are loyal to the base and don't want to surrender. No matter how many traitors there are, there are only a few people, right? Most people must still be loyal to the base."
"Hmph, how do you know it's the majority?" Xie Dong said coldly, "At this time, we would rather kill by mistake than miss it. Any potential threat may shake the morale of the military and lead to civil strife. What we need now is a
A group of die-hard elites gather together and trust each other. Why we are always at a disadvantage is that in the final analysis, there is a lack of trust!"
"The Guards Battalion does not trust other battalions. The other operations do not trust the Guards Battalion. The other battalions also do not trust each other."
"So, let's cut the knot with a sharp knife!" Xie Dong made a slashing gesture with a ferocious and rough expression.
The captains took a deep breath and looked at each other. For a moment, they felt that Xie Dong's suggestion was the best solution at present.
Is this really what Xie Dong can figure out?
But this is not important now. What is important is to stabilize the morale of the military. We must use thunderous means to suppress these clowns and suppress the people who are ready to move.
Otherwise, if the internal strife is allowed to continue, everyone will definitely die without waiting until dawn.
While the Guards Battalion still has a few complete structures, we must be ruthless.
"Master Dong, you are the one, this time I, Lao Niu, will obey you!" The man named Lao Niu gave him a thumbs up!
Another captain said: "To contact Mr. Dao, Mr. Dong must personally take action. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for anyone else to take action!"
Xie Dong said: "I'll go to Lord Dao's side. It's up to you to decide the specific details of the battle."
"What about the insect tide here?"
"Humph, the insect tide cannot be constant forever. I don't believe that they have such strong mental power that they can stimulate the insect tide all night long. How much mental power can he consume?"
"As long as we resist for a while, the insect tide will definitely weaken!"
After fighting for so long, although they still failed to break through the insect tide, they still had the most basic observation skills.
"Well, as long as the insect tide weakens, we will definitely find an opportunity to fight back. If those two guys are exhausted, there will be many people in our huge guard camp who can chop off their heads!"
After being suppressed and beaten for so long, they also had a lot of anger in their stomachs. Naturally, they considered many plans.
"For now, just let a small team contain the insect tide. Don't fight them head-on. Try your best to consolidate the bunker and delay the time for their monsters to destroy the bunker. What we need is not to defeat the bug wave and monsters, what we need is to delay the time.
"
"I will now arrange for a few elites to send Mr. Dong to meet Mr. Dao." One of the captains took the initiative.
Since Xie Dong has shown the level of a deputy battalion officer, they will certainly not be in trouble with him and will naturally take the initiative to cooperate.
However, their calculations were overheard by Lin Yifei's monster lurking underground. Lin Yifei's monster was concocted by combining human wisdom. Although the human part's wisdom has declined, it is still there after all.
Have a certain amount of wisdom.
These monsters quickly brought the news to Lin Yifei.
Lin Yifei couldn't help but laugh. These bastards were so sick that they sought medical treatment. They actually took the initiative to clean up the base and carry out internal cleaning.
The few remaining troops are engaged in internal strife and purges. Isn't this self-destruction?
The Poisonous Insect Protector was also surprised that there was such a suffocation operation?
"Ms. Lin, it's true that these crazy guys cannot be measured by normal people's thinking."
Lin Yifei chuckled: "Uncle Poisonous Insect, you are talking as if we are normal people. I like this decision of the other party very much."
The poisonous insect protector chuckled: "I like it too. Just in time, we can rest for a while and recover our strength. By the way, by the way, please inform He Jin and Lao Yu and ask them to spread the news of this big purge?
