It has been five days since Lin Song led the team into Area C.

Every day, Lin Song's team could find some traces left by the previous Southern Defense Force.

What made Lin Song feel a little uncomfortable was the appearance of Area C at this time.

Along the way, he passed through many areas.

But these areas are all like dead cities.

Although these areas are not as devastated as the four areas that fell in Region B, but...

But it's more heart-wrenching than that.

Along the way, they saw many corpses.

Most of these bodies were not killed.

But they died of starvation.

Starved to death in...

On the way to find food.

Ma Yuxiang took away all the food from all areas.

The food in Region C is already scarce, with almost no reserves.

Under Ma Yuxiang's massive plundering, it became a luxury for ordinary people to even have enough to eat.

The more careful people in the team gradually discovered a problem.

Most of these corpses were the elderly, children, women and children.

Then, the question arises.

Where have all the young and middle-aged people gone?

Lin Song was naturally also considering this issue.

By now, he was certain that Ma Yuxiang must have set up a large net in Area C and was waiting for him.

But at the same time, Lin Song has full confidence in his own strength.

More importantly, even if Lin Song wanted to quit now, he couldn't.

After Pei Hongshen and Ning Fan went to file a complaint, there was no turning back.

He could only defeat Ma Yuxiang!

Fortunately, Lin Song is not an impulsive person.

After realizing that the other party might set an ambush, he became more cautious.

First, he assigned one of the strongest [Thousand Souls Level] generals to the baggage train at the end of the row.

After all, Area C is empty now.

If Ma Yuxiang attacked his baggage train, stole their supplies, or even destroyed them...

Then the consequences would be unimaginable.

They may not even be able to find a grain of rice in Area C, and an army of hundreds of thousands of people may starve to death here!

It was also for this reason that Lin Song understood that although he had to be cautious, the war could not be delayed.

I can't afford to delay this.

At the junction of Area B and Area C, Lin Song also left a group of teams.

The combat effectiveness of this group of teams may not be able to withstand the Southern Defense Force, but Lin Song’s task to them is to report to him as soon as they find any trace of the Southern Defense Force.

Lin Song naturally thought that Ma Yuxiang might take advantage of the emptiness inside Area B and rush in directly to destroy his own nest.

But he actually hoped that this would happen.

Because as long as he saw Ma Yuxiang and his Southern Defense Force, he could lead his troops back to provide support.

When the time comes, we can fight at home, where we will have a greater advantage and won’t have to worry about supply issues.

However, such a long time has passed and there has been no news from our team.

In other words, Ma Yuxiang had no intention of doing so, and seemed to just want to compete with them in Region C.

In this way, Lin Song took every step carefully, following the clues bit by bit, and moved towards the place where Ma Yuxiang might be.

Finally, at this moment, the scouts in the front sent back news.

They saw people.

A lot of people.

Lin Song was instantly cheered up after hearing the news, and was ready to continue exploring ahead.

But this time, he was counterattacked by the other party.

Less than half of a team of scouts returned.

Lin Song could even hear the sound of gunfire ahead.

This made Lin Song certain that Ma Yuxiang's troops should be here.

Looking at the terrain ahead, Lin Song also felt that this was a very suitable place for an ambush.

There are jagged mountains and a forest outside. It is difficult for a large army to exert its full strength in such a place.

Easy to defend but difficult to attack.

This is an evaluation given by a general.

But the more this happened, the more Lin Song felt that this was the place chosen by Ma Yuxiang for the decisive battle.

If you want to hit me, attack me with force.

This seems to be Ma Yuxiang's attitude.

Of course, Lin Song could choose to stay outside and play a war of attrition with Ma Yuxiang.

After all, it is more difficult to get food in such a place.

The problem is that fighting a war of attrition will not be an easy task for Lin Song.

The supplies on our side are also limited.

The headquarters in Region B did not support them in doing so, and Lin Song had no way of getting the headquarters to directly deliver supplies here.

Therefore, after discussing with several generals, Lin Song decided to launch a strong attack.

After all, their hard power is there.

Lin Song is also a decisive person. After making the decision, he ordered an attack immediately.

Leading the team were him and two [Thousand Soul Level] warriors.

Lin Song wants to set the tone for this battle in the first encounter!

Just as the scouts had encountered before, when Lin Song led the vanguard into the mountains, they soon saw an open area.

Before they could react, they were suppressed by the enemy's firepower.

Lin Song was well prepared and immediately ordered a counterattack.

What he didn't expect was that the opponent's seemingly fierce attack was extinguished by his simple counterattack.

It felt like I was ready to fight to the death, but the other party just cursed at me and ran away.

At this time, Lin Song remained calm enough.

He did not order anyone to pursue, but continued to move forward in an orderly manner, step by step.
