Chapter 616: Four-person squad, go
Now that all the preparations have been made, we are waiting to set off for the land of the Southern Barbarians.
It's just that the situation is much more complicated than Wang Li originally expected.
Originally, he only planned to investigate the cultivators in this space to see if he could find a way to get out of here. Then there is an additional task, which is to help the Northern Dynasty and eliminate the Southern Barbarians in order to relieve the war.
It's better now, and I want to help the Southern Barbarian Holy Master to investigate the guardians of the Northern Dynasty, and it is best to eliminate the other party.
Thinking of this, Wang Li himself felt funny. Do you want to fight yourself? Whose interests should he represent?
However, Wang Li is not worried. He only needs to maneuver between several forces and get a way out of here when he sees the opportunity. If there is a real stalemate at that time, let them fight it themselves, anyway, they are just an outsider who intervened inexplicably.
As for the promises he made?
Wang Li thought, at least what everyone says, it must be true. The Nanban Inhumans still have to take the opportunity to be eliminated, because their identity is still hostile to them. The Guardian of the Northern Dynasty also needs to investigate, and perhaps he is the key person who will leave this space.
Then when the time comes, Wang Li only needs to help the righteous side.
It's like leading the Huaxia Realm to resist the invasion of the Cloud Realm.
After thinking about this, Wang Li had no worries. Anyway, at least here, I definitely only win and not lose.
Early the next morning, the four met again. Everything that should be prepared was still being prepared, and they began to discuss the course of action. Wang Li looked at Wang Yao and asked, "What route should we take, should we enter the Nanban?" ”
Wang Yao pondered for a moment, pointed to the map in front of him and said, "It stands to reason that we should enter the Nanban from the most unnoticeable route, secretly investigate their deployment, and then take the opportunity to eliminate them one by one." ”
"That's a good idea." Wang Li nodded and said, "That's it." ”
Wang Yao interrupted Wang Li's words and said, "It's just ......"
"But what?" Wang Li looked at Wang Yao suspiciously, "Isn't this the best strategy?" ”
"Good is good, I know that. But......" Wang Yao hesitated for a moment with an embarrassed expression, and then continued, "The battle situation in the important town ahead is urgent, and my father asked us to go there first, support them, and then continue the current mission after the siege is lifted." ”
"No way!" Wang Li immediately refused, "Didn't you say that I have complete autonomy?" ”
"There is nothing wrong with that, but can you bear to watch the people of the city being slaughtered by the Southern Barbarians?" Wang Yao shook Wang Li's arm and said coquettishly.
"It has nothing to do with me." Wang Li was unmoved.
"I don't think there's a problem going there first." Lingyan said, "After all, the people are innocent. ”
"When did you become so loving?" Wang Li looked at her as if he didn't know Lingyan.
Dink also persuaded: "What does it matter if we go there first and fight Nanban?" ”
"Okay, well, you're all very loving." Wang Li raised his hands in surrender and said, "I'm moved by you, so I'll go there first." ”
Two days later, the four of them, wearing armor, led the army supporting the important town in front of them, and marched to the front line.
After two days of rapid marching, the army finally saw a small city on the plain. Dink was ordered to negotiate with the defending general, and when he heard that it was a reinforced army, the defending general quickly ordered someone to open the city gate and personally welcome everyone into the city.
A few people sat down in the City Lord's Mansion. After the city lord ordered someone to serve tea, he began to report the military situation.
Although this small city is not large and has only a few thousand defenders, it is a key strategic location because of its special location. Therefore, after the front side misses, the gain or loss of this city becomes extremely crucial.
According to the spies' report, after the front line was lost, hundreds of thousands of Nanban troops rushed here under the stars. If Wang Li and their reinforcements were a few days later, I am afraid that what they saw would already be the city occupied by the Nanban.
After introducing the basic situation, the city lord looked at a few people and asked, "I don't know what the adults have to do?" ”
After several days of driving, Wang Li was already a little tired at this time. So he replied casually: "It depends on the situation." ”
The city lord's face was instantly a little embarrassed.
Wang Yao's heart was also a little unhappy, although it was true that they were here to reinforce, but the attitude of this city lord seemed to be that it should all depend on them, and he just had to watch. Therefore, he retorted: "Then I don't know what preparations the city lord has?" ”
"This ......" The city lord didn't know Wang Yao's identity, but he didn't expect the thin general beside the reinforcement general to dare to speak like this. But after all, there is a request for others, and it is not easy to turn his face, so he said embarrassedly: "In a hurry, there is no good plan." I'm not going to discuss it with you. ”
Wang Yao waved his hand and said, "We're tired from the march, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." The city lord borrowed the donkey from the slope and said, "This is arranged for the generals, please take care of it." ”
After that, the lord of the city ordered people to prepare a resting place for everyone, and at the same time ordered people to prepare a banquet for them to catch the wind. Wang Li and the others were too lazy to engage in these things, so they excused themselves and went to rest.
The next morning, Wang Li and the others rested well, got up and continued to study the plan for defending the city with the defenders in the city.
Under the leadership of the city lord, everyone took a cursory look at the guards in the city, although this city is a small city, and there are not many defenders, but fortunately, the small is small, the defensive facilities are also complete, the grain and grass in the city are sufficient, and there are 20,000 reinforcements brought by Wang Li and others, which is not bad.
Wang Li basically didn't understand these things, so he secretly consulted Wang Yao and asked how the situation was.
Wang Yao proudly analyzed, the walls of this small city are also quite high, and now there are reinforcements, so it is safe to defend, but if it is really according to what the spies said, the army of the Southern Barbarians has hundreds of thousands, I am afraid it will be difficult to defend it for a long time.
"How should that be done?" Wang Li asked.
Wang Yao thought for a while and said: "If we can secretly eliminate the opponent's commander like last time, and there is no general in the army, maybe we can let the other party retreat without a fight." ”
"That's a good idea." Wang Li nodded and said, "That's it." ”
"However, the other side's hundreds of thousands of troops, I'm afraid they won't be completely chaotic just because they lost a main general. With such a large army, it is natural to divide it into several parts to command. Wang Yao added.
"That's not easy, can't you just get rid of them one by one?" Wang Li said nonchalantly.
With his own strength, it is a bit difficult to eliminate hundreds of thousands of people at a time, but if it is a few dozen or so people, even if it is a little more powerful, in Wang Li's opinion, it is not a difficult thing.
"Since you are confident, then you can do it like this," Wang Yao said.
After that, Wang Yao pretended to be Wang Li's order to let the defenders in the city defend strictly and wait for the arrival of the other party.
In the afternoon of the same day, everyone was patrolling the city, only to see dust billowing in the distance, and the sound of whistling came from afar, which was naturally killed by the Nanban army.
Tension suddenly became in the city, and everyone was busy preparing for the defense. Wang Li and the others stood at the head of the city, quietly observing the movements of the Nanban army.
Soon the opposing army reached the city. The intelligence is indeed true, the Southern Barbarian army is huge, and there are indeed hundreds of thousands of people.
I saw that when the other party arrived at the city, he did not set up camp, but put on a strange formation. Most of the soldiers were divided into many different teams, forming a pattern in a particular orientation on the plain outside the city.
Wang Li looked at the pattern of the army, and was secretly surprised in his heart. He whispered to Wang Yao beside him: "They don't plan to attack hard, they are setting up a formation, it seems that there should be many strangers in the army this time." ”
"What then?" Wang Yao was also a little out of ideas.
If it is attacked by the number of troops, this small city can still take advantage of the convenience of the city to barely hold out for a while, and Wang Li will take the opportunity to eliminate the opponent's main general, and there will be no problem. But when they came up, they used the formation, and it was such a big formation, what should they do?
"Wang Li, hurry up!" Wang Yao said a little anxiously, "If it's late, it's too late." ”
Although Wang Li could see that the other party was laying out a formation, he didn't know what kind of formation it was, so he didn't know what he should do now, so he could only wait and see what happened.
The formation gradually took shape, and Wang Li noticed that there were some people who were different from the army uniforms in several key places, and those people should be the aliens of the Southern Barbarians. As their gestures changed, various colors gradually rose from them, and the entire formation also emitted colorful light.
The soldiers defending the city all looked at the scene in front of them in horror, not knowing what to do.
At this time, Wang Li suddenly remembered that in his ruling, there was still a Nanban Holy Master's mind, and he hurriedly called for the adjudicator spirit in his heart.
After a while, the Adjudicator Spirit responded, "What's the matter?" ”
Wang Li described the scene in front of her and asked her to relay it to the Chang Xuan Holy Master to see if there was any way to resolve it, at least to figure out what kind of formation this was.
Soon, the answer of the Elder Saint Master came.
He told Wang Li that this was a large formation that their Southern Barbarian Saint Master would not easily use, and the function of this formation was to summon ancient precious beasts to fight for them. This kind of formation is generally not used, because it consumes too much one's spiritual power to cultivate.
In that case, why would they do it?
The Elder Saint Master's answer was interrupted for a moment, and then let the Adjudicator Spirit regain his power. Either the strength of the other party is too strong, such as dealing with the guardians of the Northern Dynasty a long time ago. Or, maybe it's because their cultivators are too ...... Angry, he decided to go on a killing spree.
In the opinion of the Saint Master of Chang Xuan, it should be the latter. Because they have been betrayed.
This sentence is naturally Xie Danhua's matter. Two holy masters were killed or captured by the Northern Dynasty, and the Southern Barbarians decided to take revenge.
And now, Wang Li can only resist the power of this formation!
