Chapter 11: Ready
"Report to the commander-in-chief, according to the intelligence feedback obtained from the previous reconnaissance, the staff department has almost no abnormalities in the barbarian Eastern Army regiment in front of us, and the staff believes that we can implement our plan."
"The General Staff has drawn up a detailed battle plan and sent it to units at all levels. Everything is ready - we are about to launch the seventh and final Battle of the Great Ling River! β
In the underground command center of Daling City, Xia was standing straight and solemn, and reported to Yang Qi, who was sitting in a precarious position.
"Okay......" Yang Qi read the battle plan carefully, and he was already muttering.
"This time, the intensity of our attack is ...... How will it be? β
He looked up at Summer.
β¦β¦
"Unprecedented! This time we will launch an all-powerful war to break through the barbarian defenses without relying on the Allies -- and we will use all our forces this time, without leaving behind. The two fists, with the most elite forces of the Far North Legion and the Praetorian Legion as the main force, will launch a fierce attack on the western and eastern sections of the Daling River at the same time, trying to break through the enemy in front of them. β
At the same time, the Imperial Air Force will also take off from the Dalinghe airfield and the airfields in the northern provinces to assist the army in the attack and carry out air suppression. The Imperial Navy has also deployed the last four air carrier battle groups in place, ready to launch an attack on the Barbarian Eastern Army Navy, and if it wins, the Imperial Navy will also take off carrier-based aircraft to support the land battlefield. β
"Then, if we make a breakthrough in any direction on the land battlefield, we will have almost all of the empire's elite heavy demon-armored army groups under the leadership of most of the demon generals, drive straight through the gap, directly attack the Extreme North Fortress, and cut off all the retreats of the barbarian army along the Daling River! Trying to fight a similar encirclement and annihilation battle to the Western Legion that year. β
Summer replied impassionedly.
β¦β¦
"But if we don't make the planned breakthrough, our Heavy Demon Suit Army Group will serve as the last mobile force to prevent the barbarian counterattack and defend the Daling River defense line. Meantime. We will no longer have the slightest possibility of counterattacking, so we can only hold on to the Daling River and wait for a miracle of victory on the Allied side. β
"But at the very least, we're going to get what the Allies wantβdragging the Barbarian Eastern Army Regiment to the far north."
After that, Summer thought about it and solemnly returned.
Subsequently, the old man's eyes also revealed a resolute look.
He groaned and nodded: "Then, I order!" Order the troops at all levels for the final mobilization and the final pre-war preparations! Dawn this morning, attack! Operation Code Name - Life and Death! β
"Yes!" Standing and saluting in the summer. Turn and leave.
β¦β¦
Then, in the twilight, the entire Chinese army gradually moved in an atmosphere of silence and solemnity.
Along the entire Daling River.
On the banks of the surging river with the ice floes that seem to exist forever, on the mountains that stand with the water everywhere, huge artillery groups of all kinds have been lifted from their artillery coats and are nervously deployed on various predetermined fronts. Piles and piles of shells were brought over and piled up in artillery positions.
In the front line, every trench began to be active with the busy figures of Chinese soldiers, and they tightened all kinds of combat equipment on their bodies. Life jackets, wetsuits, kayaks, etc. And so on. They were either rubbing their hands together, or they were silent, looking in the direction of the north, and their eyes were full of determination.
The engineering units had already piled up almost all the materials for the pontoon bridge in the hidden corners of the shore - they would be after the battle was launched. After the vanguard had taken the landing ground and secured the beachhead, pontoon bridges were quickly erected behind them to allow for the rapid passage of large forces and heavy forces. Reinforcements to the front and expansion of breakthroughs.
β¦β¦
And not far behind the battle line, Daling City.
Columns of troops were moving rapidly to all sides. In their ranks, the officers shouted something hoarsely, and from time to time received a frenzied echo from the fighters.
The military storage warehouses everywhere also opened their gates in unison, and military vehicles flowed endlessly under the gates, taking away truckloads of food, magic crystals, guns, supplies and other combat materials. It was also sent to the various camps and distributed to every soldier in the army.
The Armourers were either maintaining their guns and gear, or leaning against their chariots and whispering something. The members of the Demon War and the Demon Generals were either meditating or silently wiping their swords.
Gradually, the tired expressions of the whole army were full of excitement, as if a pale patient had been injected with the elixir of excitement again, and they were once again excited, and they were already waiting for the day.
β¦β¦
In the Air Force.
Dalinghe Airport has already gone to bed early amid the strict vigilance. All the pilots of the magic fighters have been sternly ordered by the commanders at all levels to sleep immediately and recharge their energy for the upcoming big war.
However, the land-based personnel at the airport were extremely busy, checking the situation of the fighters over and over again, and began to load the fighters with power nuclei and various bombs and shells.
On the surface of the sea.
Four huge air carrier battle groups also cleaved the waves on the sea surface and began to sail north.
The lights of the hundreds of warships shone brightly, illuminating a huge sea in all colors. On each battleship, the muzzles of guns large or small pointed directly to the north, and there were many forests, but on the empty mother, it was full of busy crowds and figures of magic fighters shining in the light.
The entire huge fleet rushed to the northern seas in silence and color, preparing for the final battle of life and death with the barbarian Eastern Army and Navy.

"Report to Lord Longer. We're all set. In the depths of the Far North, all the tribes were lurking, and a great deal of vigilance was set up - we were sure that no one could detect their movements. Unless the scouts they send are high-level demon wars! β
A hundred miles away in the Far North Fortress. A barbarian general strode to a hall in the barbarian base camp, looking at the sand table in front of him from time to time, and reported in a loud voice.
"Very good...... When you're ready, you're done. Don't worry about the rest, I'm in control. β
"Don't be afraid of their high-level demon battles, they don't dare to use their precious high-level power for reconnaissance, and even more so for sending them to death-those people's soul waves are so prosperous, but they can't hide it. Their reconnaissance could only be the infiltration of low-level magic warfare. That's the real hard to guard against β but this time. I'm not going to defend it, I'm going to keep you from going in where the army is hidden, right? β
Longer smiled and nodded, muttering even more.
β¦β¦
"Now, then, everything is ready, all we have to do is the east wind - we just have to wait."
He thought about it carefully, and said in a low voice, and looked at the barbarian general who reported to him.
"Go and tell the Divine Messenger that he commands him to go down. Everything is as usual, whether it is the base camp or the front line, we do not need to make any action - when the battle of the Chinese is launched one day, we will deal with it normally. I didn't even participate in the command, lest the Chinese people on the other side notice that something was wrong. β
And then ...... I'll let them ...... naturally, but also slowly Towards victory. β
There was already a grim smile on his face, but he smiled smugly.
"Do you want to inform our troops on the front line so that we can cooperate with your plan?"
The barbarian general hesitated for a moment. But he asked in a low voice.
β¦β¦
"Inform them? No, we don't need to notify anyone. We only need to make a few wrong decisions and issue a few wrong orders at some point, under the crazy attack of the Chinese people one day in the future. Just deflect the tide of the battle in the direction they want it to be - make all failures seem natural, that's what I want......"
Longer smirked.
"However, that will inevitably cause us a relatively large loss......
The barbarian general hesitated even more.
"Bastard! There are no relatively large losses. Are you an idiot when you are the Chinese person opposite? You let them get on and they get on? Idiot! β
Ronll scolded loudly, in exchange for a nod from the barbarian general.
"Don't underestimate the Chinese people, our art of war. I learned the art of war from them. What they do best is give you a fatal blow where you don't expect it. So, we have to be cautious and cautious. β
"And now, shouldn't I be commanding a large army in the Southern Continent...... And you didn't have me, and there was a mistake...... Isn't that also normal? And as for the loss...... You can rest assured, the Chinese only need to contain them, and they will not dare to launch the last battle and fight to the death when they have little strength left, still have a chance, and are more counting on a breakthrough in the west. We don't have much to lose. β
He said meaningfully, smirking even more.

"Has Brother Ping really gone to the depths of the Far North?"
The cold girl muttered.
"Yes, Young Master Ping asked the people in his company to come back and report. Young Master Ping, who has already taken his two brothers into the depths of the extreme north, is looking for traces of the head of the family-"
"What if...... Yes, at all. β
Caiyun was still standing behind the girl, and she replied in a low voice.
"Well...... Then go for it......"
"Either find traces of him...... Either ......"
"Let me die ......"
"He must still be alive...... How could he die......"
The girl muttered lowly, she seemed a little incoherent.
Her eyes were very complicated, with a bit of anticipation in a desperate situation, but more than that, they were as deep as the night...... Fear of the future and cold sorrow.
β¦β¦
"There's nothing going on here, I'm resting too. Go and tell Boss Yang Guogong that I am ready to go to the front line at any time. β
After a long time, the girl's cold voice sounded again, and she said in a low voice.
"Exactly...... If there is no news from him...... If we don't win, then let me die too...... Even if it's to protect Qi'er and Frost'......"
Caiyun stared at the girl, she sighed lowly, but she took the order.
"The kids...... I'm sorry...... Mother can't live without your father...... And you, under the care of your grandmother and aunt, and under the protection of the prestige of the Xie family in the extreme north of Huanghuang, your mother is also very relieved...... You will grow up safely and grow up strongly......"
"But please forgive Mother, Mother can no longer be with you and watch you grow up...... Mother must find your father......"
The girl looked at the back of Caiyun who turned away, her eyes were filled with a distant blur and longing, but she was already stunned and shed tears.
Shainin ...... Even if I chase you to the Netherworld, I will find you and be with you......"
Finally, her soft countenance was full of determination, and she murmured in a low voice that was inaudible. (To be continued......)
