Chapter 265: Pre-War Investigation
"It's chattering, and I don't know what I'm talking about!" Listening to Li Mo's detailed explanation of the defense of the Fire City outside, he said softly with some impatience.
On her side, Ares listened to Li Mo's explanation with great concentration, with a worried expression on his face.
"What's the matter, little Ares, isn't there something wrong with this guy talking now?" Yuan inadvertently saw the worried look on Ares' face and asked.
"It's not wrong, Commander Li Mo was the general who was stationed before leaving Fire City. For the understanding of the city of fire, it is naturally incomparable to others. But what he said was basically basic fortifications, similar to some of the previous armings. There is really no mention of the current situation in the Fire City. Ares replied.
"I don't understand, does this have any effect on Yin Yi?" Yuan listened in a daze, but she also knew that Ares would not worry for no reason.
"Li Mo has led the troops to fight for many years, and it is obviously impossible to forget it for a while. Then there is only one possibility, that is, they have not had time to do pre-battle investigations, and they have decided to attack the city of Away from Fire. If so, then the battle is dangerous. Yin Yi and the others now have no idea about the specific situation of the other party, and it is still a siege battle. In such a situation, it is easy to fall into the trap of the enemy, and there will be a large number of casualties, or even defeat. Ares thought for a moment, explaining as simply as possible.
"You mean, it's very likely that Yin Yi will be injured as a result of this so-called pre-war investigation?"
"That's right, the intelligence is unknown, and the war is rashly started. Even if you can win, there will inevitably be a lot of casualties. Ares affirmed. In fact, for this sudden war, Ares was also very puzzled. He didn't understand at all what the reason for Lord Shen Xi to take such a risk. In the process of walking with Vivien, because they had planned to go through the Warheart Collar together. So on the way, Vivien told Ares a lot about the Battle Heart Leader, including this Lord of Shenxi. Although Vivien was also a girl, she had a good impression of the young countess, and there was no lack of praise in her words. But in fact, Vivian's evaluation of Lord Shen Xi is also quite pertinent, and the deeds she said are all real things that happened to the other party. Therefore, Ares felt that this young and promising earl should not put the safety of his soldiers at risk because of impulse.
"Then what is going on with this pre-war investigation and intelligence?" is what Ares thought about in his heart, the reason why Lord Shen Xi acted like this, and Yuan, who got the conclusion that Yin Yi was likely to be injured, decided to do something.
"To put it simply, it's the current garrison map of Fire City. Ares replied, but looking at the somewhat confused Yuan, Ares went on to explain: "It is how many enemies are there in the Fire City now, and their stationing is distributed in detail. as well as defensive arrangements, and average strength. Also, there is no hidden arrangement, or extremely strong masters in charge. ”
"That's all?" Yuan frowned, looking at Ares in confirmation.
"That's pretty much it. Ares nodded.
"You can't do anything as simple as this!" Yuan complained with some disdain after receiving Ares' confirmation, and disappeared in an instant. Only Ares, who looked confused, and two Mengji teenagers who were also very confused, were speechless.
And about twenty minutes later, when Ares came to his senses, he was thinking about what he could do to help his good brother. The vanished Yuan suddenly appeared in front of Ares again.
"Teacher Yuan, where did you just go?" Ares asked in surprise when he saw Yuan suddenly appearing.
"Do you think this is okay?" Yuan did not answer Ares's question, but directly in the air, using the wind element to sketch a diorama of a pale green city built against the mountains.
"Is this the City of Fire?" Ares looked at the lifelike model of the city in front of him, feeling a little familiar.
"Hmm. Yuan nodded.
"Are these moving points of light the defenders of the Burning City?" Ares guessed, pointing to the dark green points of light moving on the model.
"I don't know if those are the defenders, these points of light are people with intermediate strength and above. The stronger the strength, the darker the color of the light spot. Yuan replied.
"That's right. Ares answered. I thought to myself, if you have intermediate strength or above, it should be more than just a defensive force. After the big tide, almost everyone has a talent for cultivation, and the Tancente are good at martial arts. Even among the ordinary people, there are many people who have intermediate strength or above, so it is impossible for all of these points of light to be defenders. But fortunately, it's not impossible to tell the difference. Ordinary people don't come together on a large scale if they don't have something special. Therefore, those scattered points of light in the city representing the intermediate level can be ignored. And those of them represent the high-level, even the sporadic points of light of the Holy Order. Even if they are just people in the Fire City, in order to prevent accidents, they should pay special attention. And after excluding these scattered points of light, there is a high probability that the remaining troops are the current garrison troops from Fire City.
In this way, Ares set his sights on the points of light scattered throughout the city. But he suddenly found that it didn't seem to be as much as he imagined. The points of light that represent the intermediate strength, except for those that are gathered together, are scattered and scattered, and there are only three or four. This is obviously very abnormal, although Lihuo City is a border city, it is impossible that there are no ordinary people at all. In addition to those who have traveled through business, there are only the families of the officers and soldiers stationed there, and there should be quite a few. But now, on this diorama, there is hardly a point of light that can represent ordinary people. This situation reminded Ares of the scenes he saw when he and Vivien first entered the battle heart. And in the center of the city, near the direction of the mountain, the pitch-black point of light seemed to confirm his conjecture from the other side.
"Teacher Yuan, did you see any ordinary residents when you were exploring?" Thinking of this, Ares asked in a deep voice.
"Well, I didn't pay much attention to collecting the information you said. But their streets are really deserted, and it's not fun at all. By the way, little Ares, I got this, is this the pre-war investigation you mentioned, can it help Yin Yi and them?" Yuan said after a moment's reflection.
"Of course, Teacher Yuan is really amazing. After listening to Yuan's words, Ares smiled reluctantly. The current situation in Fire City is really similar to the situation of the "empty cities" he saw in the Battle Heart Collar before. All the people were taken by the Adventists to carry out transformation experiments.
"Ha, that's really good! Sure enough, little Ares is reliable, unlike the stupid woman just now, who didn't speak for a long time, and knew that she was in a daze. Getting Ares's affirmation, Yuan clapped his hands and said.
