Chapter Eighty-Eight: Deployment

Zhang Mu immediately found the Scout Worm, judging from the picture brought back by the Scout Bug, the army of Ice River City was dozens of miles away, approaching the periphery of the Ice and Snow Ridge, and there was no doubt that they were coming towards the Snow Alliance. It can be seen that the hiding place of the Snow Alliance has been exposed, and according to the speed of the frost troll's march, the vanguard army can arrive in 1 day, and the main force will take about 2 days.

This one discovery, let alone an ordinary Snow Alliance warrior.

Xue Ling and the other high-level people were panicked and uneasy.

Everyone knows that the Snow Alliance does not have the ability to fight a decisive battle with Glacier City at all, at least not yet. The undead army of the Snow Alliance is 70,000, but the Snow King has not been born, and he has fled for more than 20 days, the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and the army is discouraged.

The top of the Snow Alliance and the top of the Terran began to discuss.

"Be sure to block the news!" Xue Ling forced himself to compose, "Now that everyone's morale is low, the news that Vaughn is leading the army to attack spreads, and the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”

Zhang Mu didn't quite agree with Xue Ling's approach, "This approach is meaningless, the Frost Troll Vanguard is coming soon, we will hide it for a while, it will not benefit the overall situation." Rather than concealing it, we should think of ways to stabilize the morale of the military and consider countermeasures. ”

Xue Ling felt that it made sense, and immediately asked, "Do you have any good ideas?" ”

Zhang Mu frowned and did not speak.

Someone proposed: "We can't beat it, let's withdraw!" ”

Lei Ming stood up directly and retorted: "Absolutely not, we are not in a state to withdraw our troops." Moreover, the retreat of the brigade left traces very obviously, and the frost trolls will definitely be able to track them down. ”

The Snow Alliance's retreat will be more costly, first of all, it is necessary to abandon the altar, and without the altar, the Snow Alliance will not be able to create an undead army. What's more, Glacier City has hit the door, is it really necessary to retreat now? A powerful frost troll can easily detect anything beyond the ambient temperature within a radius of dozens of miles, and there are more than 200,000 people in the Snow League, and no matter what, he can't escape.

"Since the retreat is excluded, then the battle is inevitable." Long Hao was a resolute person, stood up and said, "We don't have to waste time, taking advantage of the fact that the army of Ice River City has not arrived, we can do some mobilization, and hopefully mobilize everyone's morale." In fact, with 70,000 undead troops in hand and a defensive advantage, there may not be no chance of victory. ”

"The war has to be fought, but you can't be in a hurry, the Snow Alliance has two armies, 70,000 undead troops, and hundreds of thousands of living souls with low combat power and low morale, how to use these troops is very important."

It was Huang Tian who spoke.

Long Hao asked coldly: "What does Elder Huang think?" ”

Huang Tian pressed the sword in his hand and said slowly: "As long as the soldiers are used in the right way, they can often burst out with extraordinary combat effectiveness. The 70,000 undead have nothing to say, they have no thoughts and feelings, and they don't know fear, and they are best suited to fend off the mighty frost trolls. As for the Snow League, morale is low, there is no fighting spirit, and it cannot be used directly to fight the enemy. Otherwise, once it is frustrated, it will definitely collapse the army, but make a mistake. ”

Zhang Mu nodded when he heard this: "How is Old Man Huang going to use it?" ”

"Give the fighters a glimmer of hope."

"Hope, where is the hope?"

Huang Tian drew his sword and pointed at the map and said, "Divide an army and attack the occupied three towns." Because as far as I know, after the frost trolls drove out the snow alliance shili, they used to station heavy troops in the three towns, and since there are a large number of frost trolls stationed, then there must be food stockpiled. What we lack is food, and if we use this as a lure, it will inevitably boost morale and make the soldiers fight to the death! ”

Zhang Mu understood Huang Tian's thoughts, Huang Tian planned to use the undead army as a block of the frost trolls, and the army of the Snow Alliance was only responsible for assisting, and at the same time, more than half of it was divided to attack the rear of the frost trolls, taking advantage of the main force of the trolls in front of him, and taking the opportunity to seize food.

"Old Black, how much energy is left on the Dawning?"

"It's not a lot, but it's not a big problem to maintain a one-day flight."

Zhang Mu nodded when he heard this, and his eyes fell on Xue Ling, "This strategy can work!" ”

Xue Ling listened to what the human race said, and now she has no opinion, and she can only choose to believe Zhang Mu, "What are you going to do?" ”

Lei Ming came over and said, "There's no time to explain, please trust us!" ”

Xue Ling did not hesitate: "We are all people in the same boat, what reason is there not to believe you?" ”

Long Hao pressed his sword and got up and said, "President Zhang Mu, we are divided into two ways. On the Dawning side, please get ready, and as for the people outside, leave it to me. ”

Zhang Mu nodded: "No problem!" ”

After this short meeting, everyone left the temporary meeting room, and Zhang Mu headed straight for the Dawn, he wanted to empty the contents of the Dawn, make more space, and load enough soldiers. As for Long Hao, with the help of Xue Ling and Manshi, he asked all the soldiers of the Snow Alliance to gather together and hold a mobilization speech before the battle.

This is important, especially now.

More than 100,000 people, all gathered around the altar.

There was snow in the sky, and the warriors stood densely in the snow, all of them weak, their faces like earth, and their eyes were confused and dazed.

In the past month or so, first the Battle of Ice and Snow Pass caused them to lose their relatives or friends, and then the army of Ice River City pressed the border, taking away the town where they had lived for hundreds of years, and Zuihou fled to the Ice and Snow Ridge, and for 20 days, he suffered from hunger and cold. Most of these fighters had no formal military training, and when they endured both mental and physical torture, the fighters felt despair from the bottom of their hearts.

Xue Ling walked up to the altar, his eyes swept over everyone, he pretended to be calm and confident, and said: "Fellow citizens, the Snow League is facing the most severe test in history! We lost our homes, the environment was difficult, and everything was temporary! I am confident that I will defeat Glacier City, and I hope you will do the same! for our forefathers will be with us......"

Xue Ling said a lot, but the reaction was not ideal.

In other words, everyone has no strength.

"Let me do it."

Long Hao walked up to the altar.

Xue Ling nodded to him slightly, and then stepped back.

Long Hao stood on the high altar, calmly looked down at everyone, and suddenly said, "Are you hungry?" ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

Long Hao continued: "I haven't eaten for three days, and now I'm almost too hungry to hold my sword, I think someone must have a treat worse than me." A warrior who can't even hold a sword steadily, what kind of battle is there to talk about, what kind of battle is the army formed by such a warrior? Am I right? ”

The people of the Snow Alliance were talking, and they didn't know what Long Hao was trying to express.

Long Hao pulled out the crystal blue sword and swished in a certain direction outside the ice and snow ridge, "Food, it's in the hands of the frost troll, why don't we grab it?" ”

"Snatching food from the frost trolls?"

"Isn't that death?"

“……”

Probably craving food too much, someone finally reacted.

Long Hao withdrew his sword and said loudly, "Let's try to lure the main force of the frost trolls away, so that the town will be empty. In the event of a raid, it would be easy for us to seize the large quantities of food hoarded in the town! We've been waiting for an opportunity, but not long ago, the long-awaited opportunity finally came! Vaughn, the frost troll, led the main force out of the garrison, and the town is now unguarded by an army. If we attack now, we'll be able to snatch a lot of food from the frost trolls and set us up for future victories! ”

"Food?"

"Is there really food?"

The temptation of food is too great for a group of hungry and cold people!

After listening to Long Hao's words, everyone was enthusiastic.

Although there are some obvious flaws in the words, no one cares so much for the sake of food!

Stealing food from towns occupied by frost trolls is currently the only way to quickly obtain food to sustain an army of more than 200,000 people.

Long Hao continued: "Now that the frost trolls are on the way, they don't know our Jihua yet, and it is impossible for them to go back anytime soon. We have the advantage of high-speed ships, so choose a brave force and fight with me to take food from the town! Do you have the strength to fight?! ”

"Yes!"

A deafening sound reverberated across the earth.

"Very good!"

Long Hao nodded with satisfaction.

"Without further ado, start the selection of the team, and we'll be off right away."

If you fight the frost trolls directly, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Snow Alliance to mobilize their fighting spirit, but with food as a temptation, these hungry red-eyed people will be even crazier than normal. Long Hao selected 50,000 troops, Zhang Mu had already prepared, 50,000 soldiers lined up to enter the Dawn spaceship, the entire spaceship was slowly stuffed, and the corridor was full of people.

As for the remaining 100,000 people, although they didn't go with them, Long Hao swore that they could see a glimmer of hope.

Therefore, the fighting spirit has been improved a lot.

As long as you hold on until the Aurora spacecraft returns, then the problem of hunger that has been tormented for many days can be solved!

With food.

Only then can we have the motivation to live.

Everyone swept away the decadence, and immediately began to deploy defenses under the arrangement. The army of frost trolls will arrive soon, and the frost trolls have a clear purpose, they must have come with the intention of destroying the altar and taking the coffin of the Hades, which is the only hope for the Snow Alliance to win.

The Frost Trolls dispatched an army of more than 50,000.

However, the Frost Troll's blood is thick and high, and at the same time, the army is well-trained and has very strong combat effectiveness, not to mention Vaughn, the existence of this kind of cutting-edge combat power, if you want to destroy the altar, there is definitely a way to do it.

The division of labor among the people.

Long Hao led a group of people to follow the Dawn to attack the Three Towns.

Zhang Mu stayed on the Ice and Snow Ridge to personally participate in the defense, and he divided the army into two parts, one of which was ambushed between the nearby canyons and mountains, and set up an ambush in the area where the frost trolls must pass, and the other part was ambushed near the altar to protect the altar of the undead.

The Aurora is ready to go.

"Wood, be careful!"

Leng Yun also set off with the Dawn, in addition to Lei Ming, Du Rongrong, Fat Man, and Mourning Dog.

Zhang Mu made an OK gesture to them.

The Aurora's hatch closed, and the ship began to activate, slowly floating into the air, then turning into a streamer of light and disappearing into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Mu saw everyone put aside the defense, and took a deep breath, I hope it will work!
