Three-six-eight, abandoned barriers
After the meeting ended, Ling Li discussed the details of the action with the four teachers, and although they would not easily participate in the action, they were still happy to provide some supplementary opinions for the action plan.
Those cult warriors are also very vigilant, and they will be detected by the slightest disturbance.
The other is to avoid casualties as much as possible.
But the cultivation of martial artists is like licking blood at the edge of a knife, and this kind of thing is sometimes unavoidable.
At 3:40 a.m., the team members assembled, and then walked towards the Hongcheng Mountain area.
The distance from here to the Pioneer Barrier in that valley was less than forty kilometers, and these elite students from all over the Qin Mansion were all cultivating above the Jindan Realm, and their speed was extremely fast. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, everyone quietly left the barrier and quickly walked through the snow-covered wilderness, almost without delay, and it only took an hour to reach the place close to the abandoned barrier.
At this moment, the weather is freezing cold, everyone exhales a thick white mist in their mouths, wearing a uniform winter brown and white camouflage combat uniform, wearing a cold-proof hat on their heads, and their necks and faces are also wrapped under the sheath, only a pair of eyes are exposed, and the surface of the cotton cap and sheath has been covered with white frost.
There is less precipitation in the area of Hongcheng Mountain, and the scenery outside the mountain is bare, rocky, and desolate everywhere when viewed from the sunny slope. In fact, in the valley in the north of the mountain, there is a dense forest of virgin pines and cypresses, which is still verdant under the snow.
Ling Li and a few selected scouts stood between the huge rocks with only a few miscellaneous trees, raised the telescope in his hand, and carefully observed the situation of the abandoned barrier at the entrance of the canyon more than ten kilometers ahead.
According to information, the Cult of the True God is entrenched in the abandoned rampart at the mouth of the gorge here.
The wind was strong on the hillside, and Ling Li was waiting for the results of the surveillance of a reconnaissance team sent by the Public Security Bureau in advance. At this time, he heard a slight footstep in front of him, and he subconsciously said, "Ah, their people are finally here." ”
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and after only a few breaths, a few white figures appeared in the middle of the sparse trees of the dim riverside valley. Ling Li raised the binoculars and looked at it again, and then said to Yao Bing and Li Tianzheng beside him: "It should be someone from the Public Security Bureau, let's go down first." ”
This reconnaissance team consisted of only twelve people, that is, one squad.
Liang Henian wrapped a sheepskin coat on his body as a camouflage in the snow, and returned to the agreed place with more than a dozen members of his team.
After seeing Ling Li and them, Liang Henian first reported to Yao Bing: "Captain, the barrier in front is not very big, and it is estimated that there are only about 200 cultists inside. In this kind of weather, it seems that the vigilance of the True God Cult is very lax, and no mobile patrols have been found, and there are not even any guard posts on some lookout towers. ”
"They really didn't even send out the sentry?" Ling Li felt a little strange, it stands to reason that this cultist is very vigilant and should not be so lax.
"At first, there were people on duty, but when it was just dark, they withdrew, maybe to go back to eat, but they never came out." Liang Henian said, "However, the outside of the camp has been repaired again, and there are trenches and traps dug in it, so it is easy to cross the edge, and only a drawbridge near the gate can enter and exit." ”
"How high is the fort wall?" Ling Li asked.
"It is only more than ten meters high, but there is also a barbed wire fence outside, and each wall is about 130 meters long, but there are relatively strong stone blockhouses on the four corners of the fort wall."
Due to the remoteness of the area, and the fact that it was snowy, the True God Cult might let down its guards, which greatly increased the chances of a successful raid.
The problem was that Ling Li's instincts were that the enemy wouldn't be so lax.
Anyway, he decided to make another run on his own.
Ling Li called Yao Bing and Liang Henian, two liaison officers of the Public Security Bureau, and several squad leaders together to carefully discuss and deploy the plan for attacking the camp.
Li Ge said: "We took advantage of the cover of night to get close to the fort wall, and then just climbed over the wall, anyway, everyone is carrying climbing tools, and this more than ten meters high fort wall cannot become an obstacle." ”
Liang Henian also agreed with Li Ge's suggestion, and after drawing a schematic diagram of this abandoned barrier underground, he said: "When we reconnoitred the enemy's camp just now, we found that our defenses were very lax, and I also thought that it was a good choice to surprise at night. ”
Ling Li thought for a moment before saying, "If this is really the case, it is not too troublesome, the problem is that there are too many variables in the night attack, and there are many uncertain factors in the night battle, so we still wait until dawn to launch the attack." In addition, I will go over and take a look, in case I fall into the enemy's ambush, it will be dangerous. ”
Since he said so, no one else said anything more.
This is also a rule in the army, so as not to interfere with the commander's decision-making in battle.
Judging from the situation a few days ago, and the strength of these trainees is overwhelming, the specific details of the operation are how to reduce casualties as much as possible.
There was nothing wrong with Ling Li being so cautious.
After explaining a few more things, Ling Li sneaked to the broken barrier alone.
In his hand, he held the Moon Slashing Knife that had been upgraded to the Rank of the Spirit Treasure on the ground level, the specially treated blade was slender, sharp, and the lethality had also increased a lot, and after processing, the dark red blade would not emit a little light in the dark.
He moves a lot like a hidden killer.
The abandoned pioneer barrier is not large, only a dozen acres of yard, some of the original internal houses have collapsed a lot, and the interior does not seem to have been renovated, and it still looks very dilapidated. In the middle of the courtyard, there is a three-story stone building that is largely intact.
At the moment, the courtyard was pitch black, and occasionally a glimmer of light flashed from the ground.
When approaching the wall of the rampart, Ling Li used the stealth trick, and his figure seemed to blend into the darkness, which made Yao Bing, Li Zhengyi and others who were observing his actions from a distance feel very surprised.
In the telescope, his figure faded and eventually seemed to suddenly disappear into thin air.
This technique is not particularly subtle, but it simply absorbs the light source force elements that fall on the body directly into the body and does not reflect them, which means that the image cannot be seen. But it is not easy to do, first of all, not all light sources need to be absorbed, and it needs to be mimicked so that the light reflected by the body is consistent with the surrounding environment.
Otherwise, the sudden existence of a humanoid "black hole" is equivalent to not being invisible.
This absorption and control of light, in harmony with its surroundings, is the most difficult thing to achieve.
As he approached the abandoned rampart, Ling Li hid behind a tall mountain rock and stole forward. He exuded his divine sense, and found that the outside of the barrier did indeed seem to be as it was, with more than a hundred people gathered, but he judged from the faint fluctuation of source qi inside the wall that there was actually a powerful large array inside the abandoned barrier......
