After the successful promotion, Guan Yun did not rest, but took Zhao Li to inspect the military camp together, and now that the war is raging, it is easy for some negative thoughts and incendiary remarks to appear in the army.

"What about our casualties today?"

Guan Yun secretly opened the curtain to check the situation in the tent, and asked casually to Zhao Li, who was following him.

"About two hundred people, about half less than the previous two days, today's Star Dou's offensive is obviously a lot smaller, far less crazy than it was at the beginning."

"Hmm."

Guan Yun nodded, he was not surprised by this number, war is like this, generally in the first confrontation can basically determine the direction of the war, either one side will attack the other side with the power of thunder, or no one can help who The two forces just dragged on, waiting for the appearance of a turnaround.

"It seems that Zhao Xin has found out that we are a hard bone, it doesn't matter, just drag it, let's drag it, anyway, we won't suffer."

"But..."

The truth is that Zhao Li naturally knows that delaying time is the best strategy for them to win this battle, but the root cause of his real worries is not on the battlefield.

"In addition to the Adamantite Pedestal worn by the Commander who has not been damaged, the rest of the pedestal wearers, including the Mithril Pedestal, have been damaged a lot recently, and they are all consumed by the Soul Emperor on the other side, even if Zhao Xin can't find any clues at present, but once this war continues to be so stalemate, he Zhao Xin will definitely find that our high-end combat power is wrong."

"Yo, yes, you've learned to use your brains?"

I have to say that Zhao Li's words made Guan Yun a little impressed with him, for a long time in the past, Zhao Li was a mediocre talent in his eyes, not as brave as Ram Wu, not as careful as Chen Yang, but now it seems that Zhao Li's body also has a valuable advantage, learning.

Seeing Zhao Li touch the back of his head embarrassedly, Guan Yun also extinguished his thoughts.

"Do you know what our greatest strength is?"

Zhao Li thought for a while and said unconvincedly.

"You?"

Guan Yun's face was black, and he slapped him directly on the back of the head angrily.

"Holy! Do you dare to make fun of Lao Tzu when you are so serious?! Answer well. ”

Zhao Li was not angry after a slap, but smiled and replied seriously.

"It's the pedestal, but how many people we have died on the battlefield, the pedestal can be recovered and re-put into use on the battlefield inside Yeyin City, our high-end combat power is endless, on the contrary, Xingdou's high-end combat power is one less if one dies, and it can't be replenished at all."

"That's right."

This question was answered perfectly, why did Guan Yun and Xia Yi dare to fight this battle with such a huge difference in strength? It is by relying on a steady stream of high-end combat power, the Soul Emperor Soul King under your Zhao Xin is dead when he dies, but after the Soul Emperor Soul King under him Guan Yun dies, he can be replenished immediately, and he can be put into the battlefield again the next day.

"Then you're guessing where these pedestals that are constantly reborn in Nightfall City have gone?"

Zhao Li wanted to answer casually, do you still need to think about this question? The pedestal lost in Changping Pass should naturally return to Changping, but when he wanted to say it, he found that something was wrong, if the pedestal really returned to Changping Pass, then why didn't he see any reinforcements in the past few days.

In this way, the lost strength of Changping Pass did not return to Changping Pass, but was transferred to the Long Corridor or the Frost Capital, so that Zhao Xin could not detect the existence of the pedestal no matter what.

"The second master is really calculating."

Zhao Li was convinced, he was indeed convinced, who said that muscular men can't use their brains? It's even more terrifying for this person with high force value to use his brain.

"Fuck off."

Guan Yun didn't dare to bear Zhao Li's compliments, if he wanted to say that he was a little happy when Jia Weiyin sarcastically mocked him for being calculating, after all, Jia Weiyin was smart, but being praised by Zhao Li for being a good calculating, it felt a little inexplicable.

"Let's go, follow me to the city walls."

...

At night, the defense of the city walls was guarded by the men of each battalion in turn. A battalion has almost 100 people, 10 tithes, which means that a battalion commander almost means a hundred generals.

In addition to not being able to sleep, the work on duty at night is not tiring, and naturally it is not necessary to be vigilant, after all, if you really talk about the eyes, the hundred people in their battalion may not be as good as the eyes of any of the ten soul venerables, and their job is to prepare defensive measures first-hand after the alarm sounds.

"Niu San! Niu San! ”

Gou Er rubbed his somewhat dry eyes, and gently touched his brother Niu San who was standing beside him.

"Why don't you sleep first? I'll give you the wind. ”

"Get out!"

Niu San first yawned hard, and then angrily replied to Dog Er, and went to sleep at night? Did he really think he had enough to live? Mil-spec stuff written in black and white, but really a joke? Even if there are no military regulations for 10,000 steps back, with this strong wind whining and whining, can he really fall asleep?

"If you have something to say, shut up when you have nothing to do, it's easy to leak when you open your mouth, your brain is already not good, but you can't damage it anymore."

"I'm hungry."

"I'm hungry too!"

It's not that Guan Yun's military rations are not enough, but the vigil is a thing that consumes both calories and physical strength, so the battalion of the vigil will receive a meal supplement in the middle of the night, which can be regarded as inhumane in humanity.

"Wait, we'll be able to drink a sip of hot soup in another hour, and there should be gnocchi in it."

Gou Er swallowed a mouthful of saliva, if the only thing that could make him feel some comfort in the night was this meal supplement, gnocchi, this was a delicacy that he could only eat for a long time before.

"Niu San, I want to eat meat..."

Hearing what Dog Er said, Niu San's stomach also barked, it was meat, the last time he ate meat was at the celebration banquet that captured Changping Pass, it was really fragrant, but Niu San's brain turned much faster than Dog Er since he was a child, and he immediately wanted to angrily scold him that now is not the time to eat meat, but after thinking about it, he still can't say whether the two of them can still get a mouthful of meat in their lives, and his tone suddenly became much softer.

"When this battle is over, we will have meat to eat, and the second master will reward us with a sip of wine."

Dog Er stopped talking, this is meat and wine, he is a little afraid that he will be starved to death if he can't wait for the battle to die on the battlefield, the problem is that he can't be starved to death, after all, he doesn't know whether starving to death on the battlefield is also considered war death, you must know that if he dies in battle, his family can get a full 100 gold coins subsidy.

The two of them were not talking, but they didn't know that at the corner of the stairs on the city wall, the two of them were engaged in a fierce eye exchange, which was actually not intense, after all, Zhao Li's eyes were full of pleading.

Zhao Li is afraid, he is afraid that the second master will be soft-hearted for a while and let the soldiers of this battalion on duty tonight eat a bite of meat, if this is the case, the problem will be big, it is simple to let a battalion eat meat, but it will be difficult to let everyone in Changping Pass eat a bite, now the snow has just melted a little, and the temperature has just dropped, in the wild in the north except for people, don't want to look at a living thing, as far as their current meat storage is the spoils of conquering the Changping Corridor.

"Look at your virtue."

Guan Yun glanced at Zhao Li angrily, this person was pulled up by him, and Guan Yun could guess anything in his mind with his eyes closed.

"Okay, go back and rest, Lao Tzu has something big to do tomorrow."

Only Guan Yun himself knew that a certain softness in his heart had been touched just now.
