The rise of many Cen Mo
"Mumu, the two armies are vastly different in strength. Can you win?" If the host had not participated in this battle today, this city would surely have been captured.
"It's not a matter of whether we can or not, it's a matter of necessity. No one can afford to lose this battle!" Xiao Liunian said, and it seemed that those who participated in the battle today shared the same thought.
Years ago, enemy troops breached Wuzhou City, and tens of thousands of border residents were slaughtered. Now they have returned with renewed force. If the city falls, they will face another massacre. They must win!
——
On the other side, after arranging all the follow-up work, Cen Mo returned to his tent and kept thinking about today's battle. The disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves was huge. How could we resist the enemy's next wave of attacks?
Cen Mo stood in front of the hanging topographic map, pondering for a long time.
How can this situation be broken?
Are we just supposed to wait for the enemy to attack and then passively defend ourselves?
Why can't the Zhenbei Army take the initiative to attack?
Take the initiative? Take the initiative? Take the initiative!
After pondering for a long time, Cen Mo...
"Someone come here!" Cen Mo shouted to the two soldiers outside the tent.
"Go and summon Kong Er, Wu Jiu, and Yan Liang to the main council tent." Cen Mo thought of a plan to launch an attack, but this plan still needed to be discussed with others and planned carefully.
Cen Mo then left the resting tent and went to Xiao Liunian's main tent.
"General Cen!" The soldier on duty outside Xiao Liunian's tent clasped his hands in salute.
"Please inform His Majesty that Cen Mo has important matters to report," Cen Mo said.
Inside the tent, after hearing the sounds outside, Xiao Liunian slowly got up and then hugged the furry system whose belly was heaving.
This time I can finally escape this environment of constant overtime!
"What is it?" Xiao Liunian did not show any annoyance at working overtime late at night.
"Your Majesty, I have come up with a plan that may severely damage our enemy forces. I request that Your Majesty proceed to the council tent," Cen Mo reported.
"Let's go!" Xiao Liunian walked towards the council tent.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Kong Er, Wu Jiu, and Yan Liang, who were already in the main tent, clasped their hands in greeting.
"No need for formalities!" Xiao Liunian walked to the main seat in the tent and sat down.
"General Kong, General Wu, General Yan, I plan to launch a surprise attack on the enemy in two days!" Cen Mo revealed the purpose of the late-night meeting.
"What does General Cen intend to do?" General Kong asked.
Cen Mo did not answer Kong Er's question, but instead solemnly bowed to Xiao Liunian, who was petting the cat.
"Your Majesty, I dare to suggest that you lead your men to launch a surprise attack on the enemy's encampment in two days, to throw them into disarray. I will then lead my men to storm the enemy camp in the chaos."
Upon hearing this, the other three were all shocked. Although His Majesty was powerful and his cultivation was unfathomable, the enemy army numbered in the tens of thousands. If anything happened, there would be no one to rescue His Majesty.
Xiao Liunian was not surprised by this. She waved for Cen Mo to stand up, "I wonder which people General Cen intends me to lead?"
"Your Majesty, this plan will not work!" Wu Jiu advised.
"Where is the passage blocked?" Xiao Liunian asked.
“Your Majesty is of inestimable worth, how can you take such a risk?” Wu Jiu replied.
"When the people are well and the country is stable, I am of no value. When the people are slaughtered and the country is in turmoil, I am worthless," Xiao Liunian said.
"I am here to fight a war. Since it is a war, there will naturally be casualties, and I am no exception," Xiao Liunian said in a calm tone.
"Proceed according to General Cen's arrangements. Two days from now, late at night, I will go to the enemy camp. General Cen, seize the opportunity and launch an attack," Xiao Liunian said.
"Your Majesty, shouldn't we have others with us?" Cen Mo asked.
"No need, I can handle it alone. Apart from the attacking forces, leave some troops here to guard the area and prevent other enemy forces from taking advantage of the situation to enter," Xiao Liunian said.
"Yes! I will arrange for men to stay behind," Cen Mo replied.
"It's late. After you generals have finished discussing the specific action plan, you should get some rest!" Cen Mo carried the still-unconscious furry baby back to the tent to rest.
I'm so envious of cats' sleep duration and quality!
Two days later, when the moon was hidden, apart from a few faint starlight, there was no other light, and everything was hidden in darkness.
A famous quote from a book: "On a dark and windy night, the perfect time to commit murder."
"Mumu, are you planning to scare the enemy to death with this ghost costume?" The girl asked cutely, her whole body dark and shiny, her eyes like emeralds staring at Xiao Liunian.
Xiao Liunian was dressed in white, with her hair down naturally, a long, straight black style unique to Chinese horror films, and gender-neutral.
Xiao Liunian used his lightness skill, moving sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes high, sometimes low, swaying in the air as he headed towards the enemy's encampment.
"Killing is too boring, so it's not unreasonable for me to add some fun myself." Xiao Liunian thought that her makeup and styling today were very suitable for the current scene.
"And your mimicry today is just as impressive, isn't it?" Xiao Liunian glanced at the black cat in his arms. The black cat slightly curled the corners of its mouth, revealing a few sharp teeth. The white, shiny teeth, combined with its emerald green eyes, were quite amusing.
As expected of a commander trained by Xiao Liunian!
A man and a cat, exuding an eerie atmosphere, arrived at the enemy's encampment. Xiao Liunian entered the camp gate at lightning speed, casually throwing out a few pebbles, causing several strings of lanterns to fall. The soldiers on duty only saw a white afterimage disappear with a gust of wind.
"What is that?" a soldier asked.
"I didn't see it clearly," the soldiers said in a cacophony of voices.
"Why did those lanterns fall down? Go check it out!" Two soldiers were preparing to come down from the watchtower.
"Awooo!" Several sounds that sounded like wolves howled came from all directions.
"My cat Thirteen is amazing! That wolf howl was really effective!" Xiao Liunian said proudly, his cat was really good at cooperating.
"This is the system's audio-visual effect, making people feel like they are surrounded by sound from all angles. It's just like the saying 'the sound lingers for three days'!" the system cat said proudly, looking like it wanted praise.
"The effect is quite good! Moreover, you've discovered a new use for 'the lingering sound lasts for three days.'" Facing the furry creature, which was his own, Xiao Liunian found all of its actions commendable.
Holding the cat, Xiao Liunian evaded patrols in the military camp and headed straight for the artillery depot. Then, the sound of explosions drowned out the howling of wolves.
The surrounding soldiers scattered and fled in chaos. Explosions continued one after another, making rescue impossible; they could only wait for the explosions to stop.
Then, Xiao Liunian activated the system's teleportation function, instantly appearing in the grain warehouse. He took out the oil and liquor he had prepared in advance, set the grain warehouse ablaze, and started burning it.
The flames from burning provisions and exploding shells added a vibrant touch to the pitch-black night.
"This is truly admirable!" the system exclaimed inwardly. Other people's systems helped their hosts dominate the battlefield, while its own system only used a teleportation skill and a storage function.
Even without the teleportation and storage function, it is still possible to do so based on the abilities of its host, Xiao Liunian.
The system's luck is absolutely incredible!
Compared to the countless praises the system cat was feeling, Xiao Liunian's expression was very calm, demonstrating that she had mastered the art of "practice makes perfect".
"Thirteen, do you want to go back to the space?" Xiao Liunian asked.
"There's going to be bloodshed later, so it's best to avoid it," Xiao Liunian suggested. Although it could protect the furry child from injury, it wouldn't be good for the furry child to get splattered with blood.
"Am I affecting your performance?" the system cat asked.
"No," Xiao Liunian replied.
"Then let's not go back!" The system cat jumped onto Xiao Liunian's shoulder and gripped him tightly with its four paws.
Xiao Liunian took out a long spear from his spatial storage and descended from the sky, exuding a murderous aura.
The system cat on his shoulder also struck a cool yet adorable pose.
Faced with such a chilling killing intent, the soldiers in the camp quickly assembled and surrounded Xiao Liunian.
"Alone, you stormed my camp, searching for..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Liunian had already swung his gun, using the force of a sword to kill a jade python, sending the enemy soldiers back more than ten meters.
"So majestic!" exclaimed the cat on the shoulder. The cat looked around and saw that the general who had just shouted at Xiao Liunian had lost his three souls and seven spirits and was lying flat on the ground.
"Mumu, watch out for arrows!" the furry creature on her shoulder warned anxiously.
"Are you nervous?" Xiao Liunian even took a moment to pat the cat's head.
"Why don't we run away!" the cat suggested, pushing away the large paw on its head.
Knowing that it would be too difficult to kill Xiao Liunian in close combat, the enemy quickly formed an arrow formation. With a volley of arrows, everyone would have to wait to die!
Xiao Liunian planted the gun in his hand in the ground and then took out a sword.
A barrage of swords and arrows! The host really knows how to think.
"This inspiration came from an old novel!" Xiao Liunian seemed to know what the fluffy creature was thinking.
You still have time to read novels! Your world must be under a lot of academic pressure, yet you still have time to read novels!
"Time is like water in a sponge; you can always squeeze some out," Xiao Liunian said.
Just as Xiao Liunian and the cat were having a tacit conversation, a rain of arrows came from every angle towards Xiao Liunian, aiming to riddle him with bullets.
Xiao Liunian remained unmoved, neither dodging nor avoiding, but casually swung his sword. In the blink of an eye, countless identical swords were copied, carrying a chilling light, to meet the rain of arrows. Not only did he fail to stop the rain of arrows, but most of them were also changed direction, with thousands of swords and arrows attacking the enemy together.
Despite the shields providing protection, the attack still resulted in heavy casualties.
"The phrase 'unstoppable' is practically tailor-made for its host!" A million praise comments flooded the system cat's mind.
Just then, unrest broke out in other parts of the camp as well.
Cen Mo's raiding party was also in position.
Outside the main camp, Cen Mo led his soldiers in a fierce battle against the enemy. Many of them had no intention of going back from the beginning. Killing even one more enemy was a bonus. Everyone was determined to fight to the death and never let the enemy set foot on the land of the Jinling Dynasty to burn, kill, and plunder!
The enemy wasn't stupid either. At first, the ammunition and food depots in the military camp were on fire, and many people were in a state of chaos. But they quickly realized what was happening and the enemy generals quickly arranged countermeasures, intending to annihilate everyone, including Xiao Liunian, in one fell swoop.
"Keep a close eye on it!" Xiao Liunian instructed.
Then, he picked up his sword and flashed into the enemy ranks. Wherever he went, one or several enemy soldiers fell. Xiao Liunian's sword was specially made so that blood could not stay on the blade. But tonight, the blood on the sword never disappeared.
The cat, clinging tightly to Xiao Liunian's shoulder, seemed to be infected by the mountain of corpses and sea of blood created by its host. Occasionally, it would extend a paw, trying to help its host scratch the enemy to death.
Amidst the raging rain of blood, Xiao Liunian saw the fluffy creature trying so hard to be cute and couldn't help but laugh. This time, everything will be alright, and it must be alright!
"The atmosphere in this scene makes the host look too much like a heinous villain!"
"He actually laughed!!!"
"How do I modify system properties again?!"
The system went from being shocked at the beginning to getting used to it now, from initially rejecting it to now actively accepting it as a villainous system. As expected of Xiao Liunian's adopted child, it has a strong ability to adapt.
