Tiangang looked sideways at Ksitigarbha. Generally speaking, Ksitigarbha's tone probably meant that he had some idea.
"Master, we only have three to five days, maybe we can adopt the following delaying strategy."
"Oh? What kind of delaying tactic?"
"We were attacked by an air raid and suffered heavy losses. Maybe we can take advantage of the opportunity to pretend to negotiate with the officials and pretend that we are willing to accept their recruitment. Since it is a negotiation, it is reasonable to talk for three to five days, right?"
Tiangang frowned: "Since the Golden Fox and Golden Bear regiments plan to leave through the secret path to attack the two bases of Tantou and Wangqiao, wouldn't it be contradictory for us to talk about negotiations?"
"Haven't they set off yet?" Ksitigarbha said with a smile, "To fight against the authorities, we have to change with the times and play some tricks to have a chance to fight them. Otherwise, we will be at a disadvantage after all."
Tiangang was somewhat hesitant.
If he goes by his thoughts and will, he actually doesn't want to go head-to-head with the authorities. Although he has a geographical advantage, his troops are indeed strong.
But they can only be regarded as strong soldiers in the surrounding bases. It depends on who they compare with, whether they are compared with the official army or the military. They are still a miscellaneous army, just a grass-roots team.
To put it harshly, it is still a rabble, but a slightly stronger rabble.
But this is Lord Shuzu's will. Lord Shuzu gave him a death order. He must show the toughest attitude towards the official and must show an uncompromising stance.
Master Shuzu originally planned to use a false shot in Star City to lure the official group back to Star City, and even set up an ambush halfway along the way.
But the team from Xingcheng that entered Panshiling refused to take the bait. They acted as if they were locked in with the survivor bases around Dajin Mountain and would never leave.
Even if he knew that the official headquarters of Star City was under siege, he would never come back to help.
With this momentum, Tiangang was actually scolding him in his heart. It wasn't that he was really afraid of fighting against the official teams.
But I feel that this official team of awakened people is simply unreasonable. If the ruler of Star City does not go to the rescue, how can they compete with a group of survivors?
But deep down in his heart, he actually knew that the root cause still lay in Lord Shuzu's formation. And his base was actually the Qianmen, the core of the formation.
This gate is the core of the eight gates of the entire formation. As long as this gate is defended, it can still be repaired if the other three gates are broken.
But if his branch is destroyed, it means that the core hub has been destroyed. If he wants to rebuild it, the cost will be at least ten times more.
This is something that Mr. Shuzu has warned many times, and it is also the biggest responsibility that Tiangang bears. Mr. Shuzu even put down his harsh words, if the Qianmen cannot be guarded, then there are eight words, if the door is destroyed and the people are there, the door will be destroyed and the people will die.
.
This is no joke, Master Shuzu can really decide his life or death in a single thought.
Not to mention that Tiangang himself is a fanatical convert of Master Shuzu. Even if he is not so fanatical, life and death are in the hands of Master Shuzu, so he still has to obey his orders.
What's more, in essence, Tiangang is also a desperado. He has always pursued the concept of seeking wealth and wealth through danger. In the sunshine era, he was a ruthless man who wandered in the gray area.
Entering a strange era, the rules are broken, and without the constraints of the rules, people who usually have no moral baggage and are not bound by secular rules and regulations naturally thrive like a fish in water and rise rapidly. And this kind of people often have huge ambitions.
When ambition is constrained by strength and the strange tree extends an olive branch, there will naturally be no hesitation. It can be said that they hit it off immediately.
Now that he's on the strange tree's boat, Tiangang doesn't care about the righteousness of human existence, let alone the concepts of good and evil.
With the mentality of a person like Tiangang, as long as he lives a good life, he will not frown at all even if it costs the whole world. As long as he can achieve his goal, he will do whatever it takes.
Therefore, by negotiating to delay time and playing scheming tricks with the authorities, he does not have any psychological mysophobia, but is worried that something will go wrong and the authorities will find out?
In other words, will the official accept this policy?
Now that the official has said harsh words, will they accept their reneging on their word and then turn around and negotiate with them again? Are they even willing to put aside their official dignity and bargain with them?
Tiangang has great trust in Ksitigarbha's ability to do things and has always recognized his methods. But this time, he still had doubts about this proposal.
"Does the master think that the government will not accept our behavior? Or even bother to negotiate with us?"
Tiangang said calmly: "Put yourself in our shoes, if you were from the official side, would you negotiate with us at this juncture?"
Ksitigarbha smiled mysteriously: "If it's just a conventional way of talking, they really may not be willing to talk."
"Is there any unconventional way of talking?" Tiangang glanced at Jizo meaningfully.
"Master, although the opponent has taken advantage of this air strike, they still have to send troops to attack in the end if they want to take the base. Just rely on air strikes to succeed once or twice, and it is impossible to achieve such big gains every time. Turn around and do another air strike.
Once we have experience in dealing with it, we will naturally have air defense measures."
"In other words, if they want to win over us, they have to consider how much they will pay. Therefore, negotiations without paying a price will always be tempting to them."
War is only an option. If the problem can be solved without war, everyone is willing to choose to avoid war. Especially the official side, they must take into account sacrifices and consumption, and everyone can calculate this account.
Tiangang was unmoved. He knew these words without having to say them to Ksitigarbha.
If you really need to negotiate, how can the negotiation be delayed for three to five days? This is the key. If it is the sunshine era, negotiating a contract or something, let alone three or five days, even if it is three to five weeks, you can still do Tai Chi as long as you should.
It won't be a big problem if you drag it and slow it down a bit.
But now the two sides are at war with each other, and their faces have been broken. Moreover, the official does not suspect that they are the agents of the Weird Tree, but the evidence confirms that they are the agents of the Weird Tree.
If you say something unpleasant, people will definitely think that you are an enemy. There is obviously not much buffer space in this negotiation.
Jizo smiled and continued to explain.
After about five minutes, Tiangang's expression softened somewhat, and he was obviously persuaded by Ksitigarbha and began to think about the feasibility of this matter.
…
In the official camp, the helicopter returned successfully with Tong Feifei and Wang Xiawei.
The news the two brought back can be said to be mixed.
Fortunately, their reconnaissance of the Kengtou base basically got the information they wanted. They also basically figured out the situation of the Kengtou base.
What is worrying is that the hidden strength of the Kengtou base is stronger than expected, and their defensive strength far exceeds the original Xie Chun base.
It is completely different from bulk bases like Wangqiao Base.
If Wangqiao Base and Tantou Base are really to deal with Kengtou Base, it is basically equivalent to giving away their lives, and there is no chance of winning at all!
In other words, in this offensive, the official elite must personally go out and charge into the battle.
Of course, the good news is not without them. This air strike also made them realize that under certain circumstances, fire strikes can also complete tasks that the awakened ones cannot complete, and achieve unexpected results.
Wang Xiawei reported all the details of the investigation from a calm and objective perspective.
Tong Feifei made some supplements. Compared to Wang Xiawei's objective calmness, Tong Feifei, a spiritual awakener, made some more subjective judgments.
Of course, what the two people provided was undoubtedly as close to the facts as possible, and they tried their best to describe the situation of the pit head base to everyone.
"First of all, fire strikes must be intensified. We must not only accept the fire support provided by the military, but also apply for increased intensity. No matter how superior their geographical advantage is, the degree of pressure from fire strikes is definitely difficult for them to bear.
"
"Second, there must be a stronger ground-penetrating attack. Their core circle should be hiding in underground buildings. If there are more powerful ground-penetrating missiles, the blow to them will be more deadly. If we follow the plan step by step, we will start from
Attacking the passage they guard will be a difficult battle. At least there will be huge losses. Even our Star City team may suffer casualties."
Elites are elites, and being elite does not mean they are immune to casualties.
There will be variables in any war, especially this kind of difficult nut to crack. Once the war reaches a stalemate, there is a high probability of casualties.
In addition to a few top-level combatants and strong self-protection capabilities, some second- and even third-tier team members, even though they have a lot of protection, cannot guarantee that they are 100% safe.
"As for the third point, my personal suggestion is to capture the thief first. Our goal should not be to eliminate all survivors, but to attack separately. If we can adopt decapitation tactics, that would be the best."
These three opinions of Tong Feifei were also recognized by Wang Xiawei.
However, Han Jingjing and the Star City team must decide together what strategy should be adopted.
Wang Xiawei suddenly thought of something and said: "There are eight gates in the formation, and the Qianmen is the core. I remember that in the Western Region, the Qianmen was the key. And this formation, although the scale is far less than the one in the Western Region, but the core The things are almost the same. I think the formation gate of the pit head base should be the Qian gate. If the pit head base can be captured, I believe that the formation of the Weird Tree will no longer pose any threat. What follows No matter how hard you try with the Gate of Formation, you can't change the outcome of their destruction."
Han Jingjing nodded and said: "Everyone, let's discuss it. It seems that the Kengtou base is indeed a tough one. However, we have experienced the big battles in the Western Region. There is no reason to be blocked by this small Kengtou base. .No matter how hard it is to chew, we must break it down for him!"
Han Jingjing knew that she had to show her determination. If she was not firm, the people below would be even less firm.
Sure enough, she was in tune, and other people's emotions were also aroused.
"No matter how hard it is, we have been to the Western Frontier Region. What kind of battles have we not seen? With the military's fire support, the Kengtou Base will definitely eat it up."
"That's right, since they are so crazy, we can't get used to it. I say, strike while the iron is hot, and kill them before sunrise tomorrow!"
There are many radical elements in this team, and they are not religious men. After the announcement was issued, they dared to challenge them like this, and they naturally couldn't bear it.
Several top combat forces, led by He Jin and others, took the initiative to ask for help.
During the battle at Xie Chun Base, a few of them were able to bring down a base. Now that there are so many people, there are still two surrendered bases to help, and even more military firepower is rushing to support them.
There are a hundred reasons to start this war.
Now that the investigation has been carried out, the situation is basically under control. If we don't fight, will we still have to wait for the New Year?
He Jin asked for a fight, and his old partner Yu Yuan was naturally not far behind. Although the poisonous insect protector followed Lin Yifei, in fact he did not submit to Lin Yifei, he was still Jiang Yue's loyal subordinate. It's just that Miss Lin Yifei has a temper. The Poisonous Insect Protector had no choice but to accommodate himself.
And Lin Yifei's strength is indeed strong. It has a strong complementary effect with the skills of the poisonous insect protector, and can also bring the strength of the poisonous insect protector to the extreme.
Therefore, these two people can be regarded as temporary partners.
If there was to be a war, the pair of them would naturally go out together and fight side by side.
Not to mention a fighting maniac like Mao Doudou, who has long been clamoring for a war. In his opinion, if the team is so strong, why do they still need to investigate?
They should directly take advantage of the situation, flatten the pit head base with a crushing force, and then find out the agents of the Weird Tree and rub them and humiliate them.
Of course, he also knew that it was not up to him to make the decision.
Now that He Jin and others have taken the initiative to ask for a fight, Mao Doudou can't bear it anymore: "Jingjing, I think there is no need to discuss it anymore, right? Everyone advocates attacking. How about contacting the military's firepower now? Xiawei and the others
Lead the way and cleanse them with firepower first. Then we elites will clear the way and rush directly into the core area of Kengtou Base. The people from Tantou Base and Wangqiao Base will attack from the outside. I don’t believe it. They have three heads and six arms.
, and there are bases we can’t take?”
Axia pinched Mao Doudou's waist and said, "You are the only one who can show off, right? Why didn't you become the captain if you are so capable?"
Han Jingjing smiled and said: "It's good that Doudou is eager to fight. This shows that the morale is high and the military spirit is available. However, it will not be that easy for us to directly attack the pit head base."
"Airborne. I saw those airborne soldiers in movies before, and they were so handsome." Mao Doudou was gearing up, his eyes gleaming, obviously imagining how handsome he would be when he dropped from the sky.
Someone couldn't help but remind him: "Doudou, airborne landing is something you can't take risks without training. You'd better give up on this idea."
"Is it that evil? We are all awakened beings with just the right abilities. How can something like skydiving still be a problem for us?"
"No matter how awakened you are, without training, there is a high probability that you will still mess up. Putting aside the risks, have you ever thought about how so many people would descend to the same area and how to avoid each other's attacks?"
Being airborne handsome is handsome, but in other people's territory, it is easy to become a target. Mao Doudou's idea is obviously too simple.
