Chapter 135: Thousands of threads(1/2)
Another morning, Zhang Ping, as a senior executive of the Blade Team, must participate in the daily "morning court". The one sitting in the main seat is the Blade Queen and Chen Ying.
Well, it’s actually just a table, with Chen Ying sitting in the first place, and the rest are divided into two sides.
As soon as Zhang Ping sat down, he saw Chen Ying frowning and looking at a document.
When everyone arrived, Chen Ying looked up. "New news came from the East."
Zhang Ping's ears suddenly stood up, and of course there were other people.
Chen Ying continued, "On the third day after we left, Wu Jihai completed his evolution and his mother nest opened. The five main cities in the east, plus the Magic Dragon City, gathered more than 20,000 elite troops to siege.
As a result, he returned home with great defeat. The Demon Dragon City fled wildly and was in a miserable position. The information said it was very embarrassed and was almost left by Wu Jihai. Although he ran away in the end, the 12 groups of Demon Dragon City, with a total of 24 mechanical limbs, were cut off by about one-third. The Demon Dragon City was seriously damaged as a whole.
The other five main cities suffered heavy losses, among which the main cities of Luoshan City and Xinlai City had fallen.
Ordinary people…”
Speaking of this, Chen Ying's face was much more solemn. She took a deep breath before continuing:
"Ordinary people have probably been captured again. Only the army has time to escape in these two main cities."
After hearing this, Zhang Ping sighed silently. All the others were like this.
Although I had already expected a possible situation, it really happened, and everyone still felt indescribable.
The two main cities have a total population of 700,000 or 800,000. So many people have been taken down by Wu Jihai, and it is a big trouble!
The mother's nest eats people!
This has been clear to everyone.
Zhang Ping had talked with the resurrection heart and the life of the Fusion heart, and knew the fundamental reason: plundering human souls, vitality, etc. (see Chapter 119).
Chen Ying turned a page of information and continued: "At present, the five main cities in the East have suffered heavy losses and are preparing for a large-scale migration. However, the hasty migration...the losses are heavy.
This information was from the day before yesterday, and it has been more than 30 hours now.
According to the inference recorded on this information, Wu Jihai was chasing and arresting people frantically. The legions in several main cities had almost collapsed.
Especially when the evacuation was rushed, there was no time for everyone to prepare much. There was a lack of arms and ammunition, fuel, food, etc. A large number of industrial equipment were discarded.
It can be expected that the industrial systems of several main cities in the East will be thrown to Wu Jihai."
The atmosphere became more and more serious. Everyone withdraws from the East, so of course they know how serious the situation reflected in this information is.
Wu Jihai is already a level 5 evolutionist, and he has devoured a smaller mother nest and occupied an old city.
Let Wu Jihai devour these industrial foundations and swallow so much population, thinking about it makes everyone's heart tremble.
In a dullness, the deputy captain Song Haiyang spoke, "Captain Chen, where did this information come from? I remember we did not leave any eyeliners in the East."
Chen Ying: "The information has three origins. One is sent from Nanhong City, the other is sent from the Hellfire Adventure Group, and the other is sent from the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group."
"Greedy Wolf Robbers Group?" Song Haiyang raised his eyebrows, "How did these bastards think of sending us information? Is this a weasel to wish the chicken a New Year?"
Chen Ying said hesitate, and a faint mockery appeared on her face, "They are asking for help."
Then Chen Ying briefly explained and everyone will understand.
At that time, the Blade Team, the Hellfire Adventure Group, the Wanli Mercenary Group, the Feihong Adventure Group, and the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group, the five parties joined forces to retreat to the east.
As a result, the Wanli Mercenary Group was the first to "work alone" but was killed.
Later, the Feihong Adventure Group and the Tanlang Mercenary Group both left alone, but the chance of these two teams leaving was very good and they were still alive for the time being.
Yes, it is only possible to determine that these two teams are still alive. As for whether they live very hard or are very comfortable, it is unknown.
But now it seems that the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group is not very comfortable to live, so I'm asking for help.
Chen Ying distributes the information and lets everyone analyze it carefully.
Zhang Ping also saw the information, and the first thing he saw was the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group; Zhang Ping looked very carefully.
The signal of "seeking help" of the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group is relatively obscure, saying that it was discovered a "cradle" and wanted to invite the Blade Team to compete together. After success, the Blade Team will get 30% of the benefits.
"It's only 30% of the profit!" Zhang Ping threw the information back to the person behind him.
Is there a 30% benefit of a cradle?
Many, not many.
For ordinary people, this profit is astronomical. At that time, the small teams that followed the Hellfire Adventure Group had suffered heavy casualties and had to go to the cradle hunting, which shows how great the benefits were.
But for the current Blade Team, it's a bit useless.
Just make two pieces of Resurrection Heart and you can get the resources you need, why do you have to be thankless?
After the content was quickly passed, Chen Ying spoke, "Everyone thinks, should we ‘support’ the Greedy Lang Mercenary Group?"
Song Haiyang was the first to speak, "Captain Chen, I don't think it's necessary at all.
First of all, the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group is more than fifty kilometers away from us, which is a bit far away. In the future, even if the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group turns its back on others, it will be difficult for us to achieve success.
Secondly, the cradles around us are not our turn; so the Greedy Mercenary Group can definitely grab small and medium-sized scales, and there will not be too much profit.
Again, our own strength is now in a shortage and we are in trouble. It would be fine if the support is smooth, but if the support is not smooth, it will have a serious impact on our foundation once the troops are damaged.
Not to mention that military wars consume a lot, and they often consume millions of materials. Our resources are also very tight now.
Finally, we migrated for a long distance and then went through a series of battles. Although the results were good, the soldiers were already very tired. Let them continue to fight, I was worried that something would go wrong."
Song Haiyang spoke, and everyone agreed.
Chen Ying asked one by one, but most of them opposed it; some of them agreed, but they couldn't tell the reason, and in the end they could only express themselves weakly: Listen to the captain.
Chen Ying asked around and finally asked Zhang Ping, "Zhang Ping, what about your opinion? You are the only one who hasn't spoken."
Zhang Ping pondered for a while and suddenly said, "I thought about it carefully and felt that there was something we need to consider."
Zhang Ping said, pointing to the direction on the map and said, "Look at the location of the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group. It is chaotic, mountainous, and there is no power of a large city."
Before Zhang Ping finished speaking, Song Haiyang said: "You mean we are going to intervene in the dispute here? We have just stabilized and rashly intervened in the battle fifty kilometers away, which is to seek trouble.
The roads here are blocked, and you have to calculate the distance of fifty kilometers based on hundreds of kilometers.
You should know the migration along the way.”
Zhang Ping didn't even look at Song Haiyang, nor did he even answer Song Haiyang's words directly, and continued his words: "We have just stabilized here. But the situation here may change at any time.
Should we leave ourselves a way out?
Look around, there are towns on the main passages. Once we escape in a panic, we may be the consequences of the annihilation of the entire army.
On the contrary, if we leave a passage on the side of the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group, we can retreat at any time if we encounter problems.
I think that we should support the Tanlang Mercenary Group. Safety is the biggest gain!”
After hearing Zhang Ping's analysis, everyone checked the map again and then exclaimed.
There was a circle of main city and towns around it, but there was a gap in the location of the Greedy Lang Mercenary Group.
To be precise, this place is not a gap, but a mountain and river here, which cannot establish large-scale towns. Instead, it leads to the gathering of various mercenary groups, adventure groups, etc., which is very similar to the Yanxia Mountain area in the East.
However, this place is completely different from Yanxia Mountain. There are more teams here and there are many small and medium-sized towns.
However, most of these towns are independent, and are established by large mercenary groups, adventure groups, etc. Generally, masters are in charge.
You may not be a level 4 evolver, but there must be a powerful level 3 evolver.
In short, such a place is indeed suitable for retreat.
But Zhang Ping continued: "In addition, after cooperating with the Tanlang Mercenary Group, we can sell weapons, resources, etc. here to open up a market.
At present, the surrounding markets are basically stable, and our rash intervention will cause a rebound. The current team cannot withstand the toss and struggles.
But it should be a try here.”
Everyone started discussing it again. After a long time, they finally made a decision:
support!
But limited support!
We don’t want any 30% of the benefits, it’s better to achieve one achievement; but we need to open up trade routes, etc.
The so-called "limited support" means not to dispatch large troops, only some level 3 evolutionists.
It is too troublesome to dispatch a large army, consume too much, and it is easy to cause vigilance. In contrast, a few level 3 evolutionists are much simpler to act.
Things have been settled.
But who should I send?
As he said that, everyone's eyes gradually focused on Zhang Ping.
Zhang Ping hesitantly pointed at the tip of his nose and stuttered a little, "I... don't understand military affairs. Also, I can command the team to rebuild it now."
Chen Ying shouted, "It's just a few people. You don't need to understand military affairs. As long as you can cause trouble to the other party, it's enough. For example, this battle.
Speaking of which, the reason why ordinary people talk about military deployment is mainly because ordinary people are too fragile and can only have sufficient combat effectiveness after forming military groups.
But masters don’t need them. For masters, one person is a legion!”
Zhang Ping agreed with this. Thinking about it, it is indeed the case. For example, Wu Jihai.
