Chapter 122: Zhou Yi's admiration

After Su An returned to the city on his last mission, he purchased five drone reconnaissance planes. Five "hummingbirds" were released together, and it didn't take long to find traces of demons one after another.

A small group of demons is not Su An's target, nor is the demon cultivator who is too powerful, after some observation and screening, Su An finally chose a small town thirty or forty kilometers away.

There were more than 1,000 enemy troops stationed in the town, and through a cursory identification of their physical characteristics, it could be determined that they were a mixed force of demons, demons, bandits, and mutants, and the strength of a reinforced regiment.

Obviously, it was the demon core army in the nearby area.

Gathering manpower, Su An announced the plan of action, and dispatched combat forces to prepare for the attack.

The deputy battalion commander came up with a hint of excitement before Su An's departure, he had already persuaded the officers of the capital division to cover up the death of Battalion Commander Xu, Su An waved his hand, signaling Chen Xingyun to discuss the specific content of the battle report with the other party.

When he set off, Su An took Zhou Yi and others with him.

None of their team had minor injuries, they had recovered from the Force potions, and there were twelve members who could continue to fight.

Everyone came out of the camp, and the large army slowly followed behind, with Su An, Zhang Yuying, Zhou Yi and other sixth-level combat forces taking the lead, with a total of six team members.

When they were more than ten kilometers away from the town, Su An and the others abandoned their vehicles and climbed a nearby mountain to get a bird's-eye view of the enemy's base camp.

"A regimental-level combat unit must have a seventh-level master, and there is more than one, there is a reinforced regiment in this town, and there may be more seventh-level combat units."

Zhou Yi, who used a telescope to observe the defense situation of the town, said.

In the case of drones, the reason why everyone still has to observe with the naked eye is to determine how much extraordinary combat power the enemy has, and ordinary drones can't see that the demon monks have ignited a few Force nodes.

Seeing that Su An and the others didn't speak, Zhou Yi hesitated for a moment and couldn't hold back his curiosity: "We only have seventy or eighty people, and without the help of the regular army, do we really want to take this group of enemies?" ”

He put it mildly: the town in front of them was not something they could covet.

An Xiazong's firepower is very strong, but to be able to achieve major results in the military camp is actually to take advantage of the sudden attack and the other party is besieging Zhou Yi and others.

Su An glanced at Zhou Yi with a smile: "What advice does Captain Zhou have?" ”

My advice is to retreat...... Zhou Yi had just joined the team, and when Su An and others obviously coveted the town, it was not good to rashly say cowardice.

He could only observe the town's firepower while analyzing the facts for Su An:

"Regimental field units must be equipped with tanks and heavy artillery, and although the town is not a regular army, there will be no shortage of heavy weapons.

"You see, in the defensive positions on our side, there are twenty or thirty grenade launchers, a dozen or so first-class Force grenade launchers, four second-class Force grenade launchers, and dozens of machine guns of various calibers.

"Quadrupling that number is pretty much the firepower of the entire town.

"Their positions are well fortified, orderly in depth, and well defended, and we will not be able to attack them unless we have the assistance of the regular army!"

Su An nodded when he heard this, expressing his agreement with Zhou Yi's analysis. It is true that he led people to attack the group of enemy troops in the town, but cutting them does not mean attacking them.

Su An looked at Zhang Yuying: "What do you think?" ”

Zhang Yuying, who was observing the town with the Force telescope, stepped on the waist-high dirt in front of her with one foot, and a simple movement revealed her mighty and domineering, and said unhurriedly:

"There is no level eight, you can fight."

The so-called Force telescope is a telescope equipped with a Force array, through which you can see the level of the Force of the transcendent in your field of vision.

The reason why the drone is not equipped with this thing is because the drone is easy to be discovered by transcendents and will be taken down by a single shot, and the attrition rate is too high, not to mention that it will not play much role.

Su An bowed: "Then it's decided." ”

Zhou Yi looked at the two of them in confusion, and the second monk was confused.

Su An and Zhang Yuying didn't continue to say anything, but just flew the "Hummingbird" unmanned reconnaissance plane, cruising in all directions with the town as the center, flying farther and farther.

The terrain near the town is flat, there are no woods, and the few dirt bags that are rarely set up by the other party have been set up by the other party, but whenever the enemy is close, it will be discovered from a few hundred meters away, even if Su An and the others are elite soldiers, it is impossible to fight them in a grand manner.

For this reason, it is not possible to do it directly.

What followed was a long period of observation and waiting, as everyone watched the movements of the town while paying attention to the images transmitted by the drone, which was boring and boring.

Su An took out his mobile phone from time to time and refreshed various battle reports on the official website.

Unconsciously, four hours passed, and the time came to three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Yuying suddenly patted Su An's shoulder: "It's here!" ”

Su An perked up his spirits, leaned over to look at the picture transmitted by the drone controlled by the other party, in the deserted wilderness, a lightly armed chariot was speeding quickly on the road, coming in the direction of the town.

"Northeast, thirty kilometers." Zhang Yuying said.

Su An's eyes flashed: "Northeast...... That's the direction of the Venus Farm, Venus Sect! ”

He took out his mobile phone, logged in to his internal account, entered the official website of the Transcendental Things Management Committee, and quickly found the situation related to the "Venus" farm by searching for keywords.

As mentioned in a previous battlefield comprehensive battle report, the area around Venus Farm has been besieged by the demon army since the day before yesterday, and the opponent has dispatched a full regiment of troops.

The location of the Venus Farm was important, and the nearby Dusi army responded in time and entered the Venus Farm to help, and a large number of transcendents from the Venus Sect also rushed over from Jizhou City one after another.

After refreshing several times, Suan finally saw the latest battle report about the Venus Farm.

According to the battle report, after two days of fierce fighting, the defenders repelled more than a dozen attacks by demons, and finally succeeded in counterattacking an hour ago, driving the demon army back more than 10 kilometers, killing more than 500 enemies in total.

The battle report has a simple summary: the demon lost nearly half of his soldiers, and was repelled by the defenders, and he must be unable to fight again, and the battle of Venus Farm was a great victory, which is a victory for everyone......

Everyone came over to read the battle report, and they all showed a look of excitement and regret.

The excitement is because at the moment of repeated defeats, the Yan State side can achieve a big victory, and the pity is that the battle is over, and they have no room to interfere.

But Su An and Zhang Yuying don't see it that way.

The two looked at each other silently, and Su An immediately took out the walkie-talkie and ordered to the team that followed behind and had also rested for a long time:

"Set off immediately, go to Liujialiangzi, thirty kilometers to the northeast, occupy a favorable position, and prepare for battle!"

Zhou Yi was confused, and when Su An put down the walkie-talkie, he looked puzzled: "The Liangzi of the Liu family is a barren mountain and a wild mountain, there is no battle and no enemy army there, what is the brigade going to do there?" ”

Su An smiled slightly, but did not answer.

Zhou Yi saw that he had an unfathomable expression and didn't want to say more, so he could only suppress the curiosity in his heart for the time being.

Not long after, a lightly armed chariot coming from the northeast entered the town, and about a quarter of an hour later, the town's combat troops began to assemble.

Su An's eyes lit up, and he immediately turned around: "Go, go to Liu's Liangzi!" ”

Zhou Yi, who was full of question marks, mobilized the Force, followed Su An, who was running like the wind, and soon came to the place where the vehicle stopped, got into the car with quick movements, and marched towards the predetermined target area.

It was Zhang Yuying who was driving, Su An was sitting in the passenger seat, staring at the picture transmitted by the drone on the road, when the chariot drove out for more than ten kilometers, Zhou Yi in the back seat heard Su An chuckle:

"They're out of town, about two battalions of troops."

Zhang Yuying's way of responding to him was to slam on the accelerator to speed up.

At this moment, Zhou Yi finally came to his senses - the demons of the town dispatched two battalions and went to the Liu family's Liangzi!

He asked Su An tentatively: "Sect Master Su's battle plan is not to attack the town, but to wait for the demon troops in the town to divide their troops and ambush them on the road?" ”

Su An turned around and smiled at him: "Not bad." ”

Zhou Yi: "Sect Master Su knows that they will definitely divide their troops out of the city?" ”

Su An: "That's good. ”

"How did Sect Master Su know?"

"Because the town is not on the front line."

"Oh?"

"Captain Zhou, have you seen many wounded soldiers in the town?"

"No, I didn't."

"Now is the time when the war is in full swing, and the town is neither a forward position nor a field hospital, but a reinforced regiment is stationed, isn't it a waste of troops?"

"Can't it be to stick to the results of the battle and prevent us from counterattacking?"

"Of course not."

"Why?"

"Because the demon army in the nearby area is progressing quite well."

"How did Sect Master Su know?"

"First, demons can send dozens of transcendent beings to Camp Commander Xu's military camp; Second, I have read the battle reports in the surrounding areas, and our side has indeed lost more than won on the whole. ”

"I see. Then why did the other party station a regiment in the town? ”

"As a bridgehead for progress, support all parties."

"This ...... How was Sect Master Su convinced? ”

"First, the town is located at the intersection of roads, and the transportation is convenient, so it can directly send troops to all sides; Second, the town is not far from the forward position, and the troops can quickly reach the battlefield after dispatching troops. ”

"Didn't Sect Master Su say that the demons were advancing smoothly in the nearby area? So how can we confirm that they put their forces in small towns, and do not intend to rest and recuperate and go to the front line together to concentrate on expanding the results of the battle? ”

"First, although our side has more defeats and fewer victories in this generation, it is not undefeated and undefeated, since it is not without victory, then the demons must have the strength to support the unfavorable places in the war in time. As for the second reason, Captain Zhou really can't think of it? ”

“...... I understand, the demons have advanced dozens of kilometers, and the further they go, the closer they get to the urban area of Jizhou, they will inevitably suffer from our reinforcements and stronger resistance, so they have to arrange reserves! ”

"Captain Zhou is really wise."

Zhou Yi was not complacent because of this compliment, on the contrary, Su An's point-to-point analysis touched him, and he had to reflect on how he didn't think of this.

Touching his chin, Zhou Yi hesitated and continued to ask, "Sect Master Su never thought of attacking the town head-on?" ”

Su An said: "Didn't Captain Zhou say that the strong attack can't be defeated." ”

Zhou Yi nodded: "So we waited on the mountain bag for hours." ”

Su An: "Exactly, I've been waiting for them to divide their troops. ”

Zhou Yi: "How can Sect Master Su be sure that they will definitely divide their troops in a short period of time?" If they don't come out until a few days later, won't we have to wait in vain? ”

"That's why I'm looking through the official website while I wait."

"I understand, Sect Master Su must have seen the battle report that there is a possibility of winning a battle in the nearby area."

"If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have waited there forever."

"Luckily, Venus Farm won the battle, forcing the town demons to rush to their aid!"

"Captain Zhou is wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"That's not luck, it's because Venus Farm has the strength. The Venus Sect is a four-star sect, and it has a relationship with the yamen, and its background and background are not shallow. ”

"Sect Master Su is very familiar with the Venus Sect?"

"I've never heard of it before."

"This ...... Then how did Sect Master Su know that their background was not simple? ”

"If this is not the case, why should the nearby Toshi army enter the farm and fight alongside them to the end? What kind of virtue is the army of Dusi, Captain Zhou will not know. ”

"I see. Sect Master Su saw the subtlety, which was really admirable. ”

"It's a trivial matter, but it's not enough to worry about."

Zhou Yi was convinced, Su An's image in his mind rose a few steps at once, and at this moment he realized that if he could follow someone like Su An, he would definitely have a bright future in the future.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but give a sycophant: "Presumably, the Liu family Liangzi is the only way for the town's demon troops to support the Venus Farm, and Sect Master Su is really exhausted." ”

Su An's expression was a little strange: "From the town to the Venus Farm, there is only one road." ”

"Ah......h

Zhou Yi suddenly scratched his head in embarrassment, and in order to save face, he forcibly found evidence for himself that Su An was wise and close to the demon:

"As soon as a lightly armed chariot appeared in the northeast, Sect Master Su determined that the demons of the town would divide their troops to support the Venus Farm, and it was really a strategic victory!"

Su An's eyes were even more weird: "I wasn't sure at that time. ”

Zhou Yi's face was full of question marks: "Then why did Sect Master Su send a large group of men and horses to ambush early?" ”

Su An said: "If I was sure, I would have left at that time, and it was precisely because I was unsure that I only let the members of the sect pass." It's just a matter of not missing a great opportunity that might be missed. ”

Zhou Yi was not convinced: "Why is Sect Master Su unsure?" ”

Su An: "It's true that a car came from the northeast, but the northeast is not only the Venus Farm, they may not be the helpers of the Venus Farm, or they may have other affairs. ”

Zhou Yi was stunned, and suddenly said: "Yes, if it's just asking for help, the demon may not need to send someone to the town in person, just call...... So why are we rushing to get on the bus? ”

Su An smiled kindly: "Because I saw the demon troops in the town begin to gather." ”

"That's the case......" Zhou Yi felt his head be a mess, "but they can only call, why do they send someone to come over with great effort?"

"Oh, maybe the communication equipment was damaged by the battle, or maybe it was at the beginning of the battle that the demons destroyed the nearby communication facilities and delayed the reinforcements from Jizhou City.

"Well, the demon needs to rest after the defeat, and if he is idle anyway, he is idle, so it is better to send someone over to report the situation in person, and the face-to-face Q&A will definitely be clearer than on the phone......

"Or maybe there's something else we don't know......"

Su An saw that he was brainstorming and couldn't extricate himself, and he felt funny in his heart, but he didn't show anything on his face. Not bothering him is the greatest respect for his wisdom.

Su An was sitting back on his body, when he suddenly heard Zhou Yi slap his thigh suddenly: "That's not right!" ”

Su An tilted his head curiously: "What's wrong?" ”

Zhou Yi looked at him with burning eyes: "The demons in the small town have gathered, but as Sect Master Su said, the vehicles from the northeast may not be asking for help, and the demons in the small town are likely to go to other places after they gather, such as ......"

At this point, his voice stopped abruptly.

At the end, he looked at Su An with admiration:

"So after we got in the car, Sect Master Su left the drone in place precisely to further control the other party's movements. It wasn't until the other party was indeed coming to the northeast that Sect Master Su was 100% sure of their purpose! ”

Su An bowed slightly.

Zhou Yi suddenly felt like a dream: "Sect Master Su can not only anticipate the enemy first, but also think thoughtfully, it can really be said that he is comprehensive, and the water does not leak to this extent, I will never miss it......"
