Chapter 253: Weaving the Web
According to the regulations of the exercise, the area of departure of the exercise detachments of various countries is the area of non-military operations during the first three days of the exercise. After three days, the three exercise detachments will be able to enter the main battlefield in the central area of the exercise and compete for the exercise in seven positions.
Of course, the number of orders and flags to determine the ranking is only a pretense, and its function is nothing more than to highlight that the trilateral exercise is just a friendly military exchange and a channel for enhancing understanding. As a matter of fact, everyone knows very well that there will inevitably be a fierce battle between the three exercise units, and this is the real highlight of the entire exercise.
After the three days have passed, the departure area will become the final battlefield. After the battle for the Capture Banner was over, the three detachments had to return to the area of departure and hold on for three days. These three days will be a severe test for both the troops on the defensive and on the offensive. The former will struggle to survive under the pressure of strong enemies, and the latter will encounter enemies familiar with the terrain in an unfamiliar environment. The real fierce battle is destined to come at the last moment. The best way to avoid this battle is to knock your opponent out of the tournament in the process of capturing the flag.
And in everyone's opinion, the easiest to be eliminated from the game is probably Tianlong's detachment...... If they want to return to the area of departure, they will probably have to wait until the end of the exercise and the time of the outing.
Lan Xinyi also felt that there was little chance of coming back.
After a whole night of busy work in the departure area with more than a dozen female soldiers and Leng Yunfei, she finally couldn't help it.
"Brother Leng, if we can't come back, won't all the arrangements here be in vain?" Looking at the morning light on the horizon, she raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead and asked in confusion. She could carry out Zhu Xiaoqi's orders to the letter, but she couldn't convince herself not to doubt.
"Can't come back?" Leng Yunfei said in amazement, "If we don't leave here, why can't we come back?"
"Not leaving?" Lan Xinyi was even more dazed. If they don't leave, it means that their detachment will not participate in the battle for the command flag. How could Zhu Xiaoqi give up so easily?
"What is the most important thing to win a battle?" Leng Yunfei looked at her and asked lightly.
Lan Xinyi pondered. Strength, morale, confidence, and the art of commanding are all important factors affecting the battle situation, but they are not the most crucial links.
"Battlefield initiative!" a thought flashed through her mind, and she couldn't help but blurt out. Yes, it is the initiative on the battlefield, and only by firmly grasping it can it be possible to influence the enemy's actions and achieve its own combat goals.
Leng Yunfei looked at her with an appreciative look on his face and nodded.
"No one has a rule that we have to participate in the battle to capture the Banner, and no one has a rule on when the Flag will be obtained, and the director will only judge it based on the final result. So, let's not go to the muddy waters, just wait here quietly for the enemy to deliver to the door!"
Lan Xinyi felt that there was a problem: "If they take the Lingqi and don't come to us for trouble, then we won't lose?"
Leng Yunfei spread his hands together: "If this is the case, then we will calmly accept the result of failure, and we should give ourselves a small long vacation." However, if you are Wang Yunhao, after the cowhide blows so loudly, can you accept the result of the Tianlong detachment returning unscathed?"
His words made Lan Xinyi fall silent. Yes, Wang Yunhao would never tolerate such a scene, even if he had the upper hand in the process of seizing the order flag. If the Tianlong detachment does not participate in the melee, he will definitely take the initiative to come to the door and fight Tianlong to the death.
Could it be that Zhu Xiaoqi openly provoked Wang Yunhao at the banquet that day, just to prepare for today's battle? And the scene that happened outside the Bliss Workshop was also to pull hatred for this battle? When she thought that everything was under Zhu Xiaoqi's control, she was both happy and a faint sense of loss in her heart.
"What about Feng Wuyan?" Lan Xinyi asked again.
"She'll come too. Weaving nets is for fishing, but we want to catch not only Wang Yunhao. Leng Yunfei replied.
Lan Xinyi was stunned.
Zhu Xiaoqi actually wanted to wipe out the Prince of the Rising Sun and the Ice and Snow God of War? Is this ambition too big? Can it really be done just by relying on their night arrangement?
When Leng Yunfei and Lan Xinyi returned to the camp with the female soldiers to rest, it was already dawn.
Dressed in the morning glow, stepping on the dew, Zhu Xiaoqi, who was dressed in military uniform, took Zhao Tiedan, Long Rui, Hou Xiaoshan and a group of beautiful female soldiers, and also started a busy day.
Soon after leaving the camp, Zhu Xiaoqi ordered the troops to rest in place, and then called several female squad leaders together.
Zhao Tie Dan spread out a map on a large rock. The female soldiers gathered around the boulder, nervously waiting for Zhu Xiaoqi's arrival.
"Is he going to familiarize us with the terrain?" Lan Xinyue asked softly, looking at the map.
"Familiar with the terrain?" Donna smiled, "Do you think it's normal to do such a thing?"
"Is it possible that you want us to reconnoiter the enemy's movements?" asked Zhang Qian with an excited face. Although the current departure area is a non-military operational zone, it is not a violation of the rules of the exercise to quietly probe the opponent's situation.
"Not really. We're the main force of the detachment, have you ever seen someone who went to scout with the main force?" Donna still shook her head.
"I think he looks like he's out on an outing today. Didn't you notice what Zhao Tie was carrying on his back?" Yuan Shishi interjected.
"What is it?" Lan Xinyue asked in surprise. Along the way, the bag on Zhao Tiedan's back was tinkling, and she had long been curious.
"I've asked the big guys, it's the barbecue grill and cutlery......" Yuan Shishi said, thinking it was ridiculous.
“......”
“......”
“......”
"Everybody's here? I'm going to take care of the task now. In the distance, Zhu Xiaoqi's voice came. As soon as the female soldiers looked up, they saw a relaxed smiling face.
Zhu Xiaoqi stepped forward and casually broke off a branch from the small tree next to him.
"Donna, you lead the female soldiers of your class and follow this route. Xinyue, you go from this route. Zhang Qian and Yuan Shishi, you are going in the direction of Fengwu and Rising Sun respectively. At dusk, we meet here. He took the branch and drew it on the map.
The female soldiers listened intently and silently wrote down their routes.
"What's the mission?" asked Donna.
"Sightseeing in the mountains and waters, and some game by the way. Zhu Xiaoqi said with a smile, "Autumn is a good time for hunting, I hope everyone will not return empty-handed." At dusk, let's have a bonfire!"
"Sure enough!"
"This thing!"
Yuan Shishi's guess was confirmed, and the female soldiers were speechless.
"However, in the process of playing, everyone has a task. Donna and Xinyue, you two people, must get the attention of the director's monitoring site. Zhang Qian and Yuan Shishi, you can move more loudly, so that Feng Wu and Rising Sun can perceive it best. Zhu Xiaoqi then commanded.
As soon as they said this, the female soldiers suddenly smelled an unusual smell. This thing is going to trick people again, and everyone has the same thought in their hearts.
"By the way, let's go back and tell you about it, take some time to think about what to do at the evening party. It's been so long since I've been in Dusk Xuewei, and I haven't had a chance to appreciate their talents!" Zhu Xiaoqi finally admonished.
The departure area of the Fengwu detachment.
Feng Wuregret stood on a high ground, looking at the direction of the Tianlong detachment with his hands behind his back, and fell into deep thought. The news that the scout in that direction had brought back gave her a headache.
Zhu Xiaoqi was a difficult opponent, and she knew it before the drill began. But when she really exchanged hands with him, his first action made her unable to touch the clouds. Hunting, Touring, Traveling, and Sightseeing? Is this what his troops are preparing for before the battle begins? As a commander, he behaves so relaxed at such a tense time, is he pretending, or is he really confident? If it is the latter, where does his confidence come from, and what are his hole cards?
"No regrets, can't you guess?" Feng Wu regrets didn't know when he came to her side, and asked softly. She already knew what was happening in the area where Tianlong departed. But no matter what Zhu Xiaoqi does, she won't feel strange, because he is a weirdo himself.
"Sort of. Feng Wuregret nodded, "It's this kind of strange trick when I first came up, and it's the first time I've encountered it." ”
Feng Wuyan smiled. "When Meng Yi first met him, I am afraid that his mood was very similar to yours. ”
"Then leave him alone. Floating clouds can cover my eyes, but my heart is like a mirror, what can he do to me!" Feng said proudly without regrets.
Feng Wuyan nodded with satisfaction. The warriors who grew up on the ice field have all experienced strong winds and waves, and they all have a composure in their bones that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve. This composure is enough for them to calmly deal with the unpredictable changes on the battlefield.
"In the later stages of this exercise, there may be some variables. You'll have to listen to me when you have to, even if I've made you forgo the victory. She and Feng Wuregret stood side by side, looking at the area where Tianlong departed, and said lightly.
