Chapter 711: A Smooth Return
The successful conclusion of the eight-day harassment and demonstrations can only be a victory, not a complete one.
Although the overall loss was not large, after several days of actual combat training, the strength of each corps has made great progress.
However, only four of the established combat objectives were finally breached, including the two bases that the Demon Slayer Legion had breached at the beginning.
After listening to Xu Lin's report, Excellence is still very satisfied with this result, at least the strategic goal has been basically achieved.
"What do you think of the performance of the demons?" asked Xu Lindao.
"On the surface, the performance of the demon clan this time is a bit anticlimactic, except for the first day of being very strong, then it is completely bad, and there is not much ......to do," Xu Lin replied,
"But in my opinion, this kind of performance of the demon race is entirely due to the fact that it has just experienced a big defeat and a big loss of strength. In fact, the demon's will to fight has not decreased much......"
In addition to the fruitful harvest on the first day of the eight-day operation, the following days did not achieve much success, but frequently encountered fierce battles. This is the best proof of the will of the demons.
Even the legion commanded by Xu Lin and the demon slayer legion commanded by Hu Xue did not take any advantage in the next few days.
On the contrary, they almost fell into the trap set by the demons several times, which made the two and the demon commander feel like they were playing against each other.
"How could a race like the Demon Race, which grew up from endless wars, collapse its will because of a small defeat?"
He was most interested in the demon commander: "I can make the two of you helpless when you join forces, it seems that the demon clan is not short of geniuses?"
Not only can he suppress Xu Lin and Hu Xue to the death, but he can also do all the defense in other places, which is not something that ordinary commanders can do.
Although he has the advantage of strength and home field, it is enough to see his extraordinary ability, at least not Xu Lincha.
And judging from the battle process reported by Xu Lin, the tactics used by this demon genius finger tiger are very novel and flexible, and he is not bound by old ideas at all.
Fortunately, this kind of genius commander has not grown up yet, otherwise if he had been in command of the previous big battle, it is difficult to say whether the Federation would have won so easily.
"Do you think that in the current form of the demons, is it still possible to launch a desperate attack now?" asked Excellence again.
"I don't think it's possible, the demons don't have that kind of power now, unless all they show is an illusion. Xu Lin replied affirmatively.
"Isn't it possible that the demons are making a show?"
"If the high-level of the demon clan really had this kind of city, it would be impossible for the previous battle to be defeated so badly!" Xu Lin smiled disdainfully.
"Xu Lin, what do you think is hidden in the base that is protected by the demons at any cost?"
Something that can be worth paying so much attention to, if it is placed in the Federation, it is either a treasure that affects the future of the human race, or something that determines the outcome of the war, and the effect of that thing on the demon race is almost the same.
Hearing this question, Xu Lin frowned: "I have always been very confused about this thing, and I often think about this problem after fighting, and finally I thought of a possibility......"
"What possibility?" asked Excellence.
"Judging from the location of that base, it's not very dangerous, but it's also not safe, it's still a little close to the battlefields of both sides, and the most important base can't be located here.
Judging from the time, it has not been long since the defeat of the demons, and there is no need to send any secret weapons to the front line in such a hurry.
Therefore, most of the things hidden in it are from the battlefield, but because of some kind of change, they didn't have time to be behind the games. ”
At this point in the analysis, Xu Lin's answer is almost clear.
"The most likely thing I can think of is the fusion ray physical weapon that the demons brought back from the battlefield!"
It is not unreasonable for Xu Lin to have this kind of speculation, the importance of this weapon is self-evident, without this weapon, the demon fleet is naturally weaker when facing the federal fleet.
In order to keep the fusion ray that was so hard to obtain, it is completely reasonable for the demons to ignore the Federation legions that are wreaking havoc in other star fields.
"It's a pity!" Xu Lin sighed at the end.
It was a pity that he didn't take it down at any cost when he first discovered it.
At the cost of the heavy damage of the legion under his command, it is completely worth it to cut off the possibility of the demon race obtaining the fusion ray!
"Don't be a pity! It is destined to take a lot of time for the demons and the Federation to start a war again, at least more than ten years, such a long time is enough for the demons to obtain fusion rays!
Even if you destroy that base and the fusion ray inside this time, the demons will still be able to equip this conventional weapon in the next war, and it is not worth it to inflict heavy damage on a legion with unlimited potential. "For this regret, Excellence is very open.
That's not the planned goal anyway, and it's not a pity to miss it!
"Let's continue training! Digest the results of this actual combat training...... This is the most important and most satisfactory result of excellence.
Although it has not been directly tested, just from the appearance and momentum of the army, Excellence has already felt a feeling of rebirth.
If before they left they were a group of soldiers with high morale, then it was the war-hardened legions who returned.
The momentum of the will has become restrained but condensed, which is the sign that the legion is truly formed.
Excellence believes that as long as they digest the results of this actual combat training, they will at least be the top elite legions, and with their will to fight, they can completely match some weaker ace legions.
For the most familiar Demon Slayer Legion, Excellence can feel its changes most clearly, not only recovering the strength in front of the station, but even making great progress, the Ace Legion is worthy of its name.
"I am very satisfied with their growth, and I believe that after a few more times, when their strength is stable, there will be no problem at all to become an ace army!" concluded Excellence.
Hearing this, Xu Lin's eyes immediately lit up, and he asked in surprise: "How many more times?...... Do we still have this kind of action?"
When he returned as planned, he was still a little reluctant, and after several days of fighting with that demon commander, Xu Lin really had a feeling of unfinished.
I thought that there would be no chance in a short period of time, but I didn't expect that there would be follow-up arrangements for excellence, which made Xu Lin very surprised.
"Of course, if such a good training opportunity is given up, when will they be able to grow?" replied with certainty.
It's not easy to find when the demons are so weak, and it's even harder to find opportunities to meet the needs of the nine legions in actual combat training.
Now is the time when they are growing the fastest, and they should not miss it!
