Chapter 283: Brazen Attack
Southeast of Shizhou.
Night falls.
More than 40,000 troops were all stopped in the wilderness, surrounded by endless plains. They had walked 20 kilometers and were still 30 kilometers away from their target town of Quzuo. They were taking a short rest to prepare themselves.
"Five hours."
Fang Dashan said this with a look of intense pride on his face.
"We only have over 10,000 veterans, and most of the remaining 30,000 soldiers have received less than a week of training."
Yang Shaohu nodded.
"The formation was very neat. They marched 20 kilometers through the field without breaking formation, let alone falling behind. For a group of new soldiers, this is quite remarkable."
He paused, then continued, "The Council also conducts military-style training to ensure that their soldiers retain muscle memory after undergoing biochemical transformation. By their high standards, this team is also qualified."
Fang Dashan smiled and said, "Shaohu, this is because you have a good source of soldiers. The refugees have all traveled a long way to reach Changshan County and have endured hardships. After your selection, the soldiers who join are first-class in both physical and mental qualities."
Yang Shaohu smiled and did not respond to Fang Dashan's flattery.
Not far away, Qin Luoshuang was adjusting the reconnaissance strategy of the reconnaissance unit. Several reconnaissance company commanders surrounded her, constantly writing down her requirements.
There was no sign of fatigue on her face, and the 20-kilometer walk seemed to have no effect on her.
Lin Wen stood on the other side of the team and felt very depressed.
As soon as he entered Shizhou, he added the blue destiny star that he had stored for a long time to [Without a Colorful Phoenix].
[Without a Colorful Phoenix] turned into a green color, but this was just an ordinary enhancement. Compared with the previous super enhancement, there was no particularly huge change.
Lin Wen tried it, and sure enough, he didn't have such magical functions. He couldn't predict the distant future just by imagination, nor could he see the air from thousands of miles away and discover the fate of good and evil from a long distance.
Maybe the early warning function is more sensitive.
Lin Wen glanced at his soul, and found that only 15% was left.
It should be able to handle one or two relatively minor squeezes from Qin Luoshuang.
Questions about major exploitation probably won’t work.
However, since it was the best route established based on Lin Wen's intelligence, it bypassed all villages, towns and military camps and did not encounter any enemies along the way.
Overall, everything is going well at the moment and there is no need to use spells.
Lin Wen thought for a moment and said to Qin Luoshuang, "I'll go out and do some reconnaissance."
Qin Luoshuang refused directly.
"How can the commander-in-chief conduct reconnaissance in person?"
Lin Wen said: "I have special reconnaissance skills."
Hearing the word "special", Qin Luoshuang hesitated for a moment, then thought of all the incredible miracles that happened to Lin Wen, and finally agreed.
"Okay, but be sure to keep in touch with me and don't stray too far from the main force."
"Um."
After a while, the team finished their rest and set off again, planning to reach Quzuo Town before dawn.
——
Shizhou.
Cage Town.
The Second Imperial Army Corps is stationed here.
Wang Jing, commander of the Second Imperial Guards, is a devout Zhoutian Sect believer. He governs his army with "integrity", emphasizes "honesty and dedication", and is determined to be "loyal and unwavering".
Therefore, he was highly valued by the governor and was specifically entrusted with the task of luring, encircling and annihilating the invading enemies of Changshan County. He was also required to find evidence to thoroughly confirm the matter.
For this purpose, they specially came to Long Town to camp. It was well connected and overlooked all the roads in the direction of Changshan County.
Tonight is also a quiet night.
Wang Jing came out of the Qunfang Building and casually put a gold hairpin from the counter into his sleeve. His movements were so skillful, smooth and natural that the brothel owners and girls were completely unaware of it.
"Tonight, I got whored for free again."
Wang Jing looked at the moon. The moonlight was hazy, the mist was light, and the stars were sparse and bright.
He started by telling a fortune.
"Well, the stars are clear, the Moon Palace is not cold, and there is nothing to do tonight. It is peaceful."
He walked into a barbecue stall not far away.
"Boss, give me ten pounds of kidneys and ten pounds of leeks."
The boss glanced at him and asked, "Can you finish it?"
Wang Jing smiled slightly and said, "Pack it up if you can't finish it." He handed over a fake bill. The boss looked at it carefully for a long time, but was still fooled.
While he was happily enjoying the freeloaders, the guards rushed in and shouted, "Commander! We finally found you! There's urgent military information! I, we..."
He took a deep breath and said, "We discovered an unknown army, moving westward along the Gaga River to Benza County!"
Wang Jing stood up and walked out quickly.
"How many people are there?"
The guards followed closely behind: "It's hard to see in the dark, there must be at least ten thousand people."
Wang Jingzhi nodded. "It seems that just as the Governor predicted, Changshan County has finally lost its patience and taken the bait."
Although the military situation was urgent, he remained calm and composed.
"I'm rushing back to headquarters now. Go pack the kidneys for me."
——
The Second Imperial Army quickly assembled, and Wang Jing sent three mechanized elite divisions as the vanguard to pursue the Changshan County army.
Their mission is to hold on to the enemy and wait for the subsequent troops to arrive.
But the commanders of the three divisions did not think so. They believed that they could defeat the enemy by surprise and win.
In their eyes, Changshan County was a poor and primitive area, and the army there was probably not even as strong as the army of the peasants.
They are a fully mechanized force and are considered to be among the most elite in Shizhou. Defeating an army of poor people should be a piece of cake, right?
"This credit is mine!"
The commanders of the three divisions all thought so and stepped on the gas to rush towards Benza County.
However, they did not realize that at the same time they discovered the enemy, the enemy also discovered them.
Although Lin Wen did not have an infrared imager and had not activated [Eyeless and Clear], the moment the enemy saw him, the enhanced [Phoenix Without Body] sounded the alarm.
This warning is a mixture of multiple feelings, not a simple feeling of good, evil, or danger.
It clearly foreshadows an uncertain battle to come.
"I was not disappointed."
Lin Wen thought.
"Next, I will severely defeat you, and then you will retaliate against me even more viciously."
"Also, we must minimize our losses, otherwise I will be unfit as the county governor."
"Hmph, let me show you my 1900-game gold medal support ability. After a peak match, the opponent directly gave me 200 yuan. This kind of arrogance is rare in the world."
Lin Wen immediately reported the news to Qin Luoshuang.
The troops immediately made adjustments. Fang Dashan led the First Army to fight in the front, Yang Shaohu led the Second Army to encircle from the rear, and the Human Security Army prepared to attack from the side.
At this time, the night was getting darker and the sky was getting brighter. Lin Wen stood on a small hill, opened his [Thousand Mile Eye], looked in all directions, and reported any intelligence he got to Qin Luoshuang, Yang Shaohu and Fang Dashan.
He also used the [Heavenly Ear Technique] to monitor sounds from all directions.
Coupled with the enhanced [Phoenix Without Body], Lin Wen's reconnaissance capability has now surpassed that of Global Hawk, and is equivalent to a human full-power barrier-free phased array radar.
Soon, Lin Wen heard the roar of vehicles coming from the wind in front of him on the right.
He immediately turned his gaze and saw a large number of off-road vehicles and troop carriers roaring towards them from the low-lying area of the plain seventy kilometers away.
At the same time, he discovered that there were enemies 130 kilometers away in another direction.
Not long after, they discovered another group of enemies 170 kilometers away.
There were three enemy troops in total, attacking them from three different directions.
Lin Wen immediately reported the news to the three commanders.
After a brief discussion, the army made corresponding changes and decided to eliminate the nearest unit first.
Yang Shaohu continued to encircle the enemy from behind, while Fang Dashan set up a pocket formation. Qin Luoshuang used the same trick again and laid booby traps at some key locations.
Booby traps are quickly deployed, deceptive landmines. They are her favorite tactical weapons, and all her agents have a large number of them.
For this expedition, Qin Luoshuang took out all her family assets.
After the booby traps were set, the encirclement was completed, and the enemy had only one way left: to be annihilated.
Lin Wen reported all the movements of the enemy throughout the process, and Fang Dashan chose an appropriate time and took action.
