After a great victory, soldiers can undergo a short rest, but the officers cannot.

Before everyone's stomachs could be digested, p5092 held an emergency temporary combat meeting.

The small command camp was filled with officers at all levels and combat staff.

Everyone is not sure what p5092 is gathering everyone up for now. Didn’t you win a big victory just now?

But p5092 glanced at the officers at all levels in front of him and said, "Although we have just won a victory, everyone should understand that we have to face a more cruel battle next time. Time is tight, so I will not discuss anything with you, but will directly arrange the defense deployment work."

Everyone looked at each other, and suddenly, everyone felt a sense of urgency, as if p5092 felt that this defensive position was about to be in trouble, which made them even more confused.

p5092 looked at the First Regiment and said, "The First Regiment has been a mobile force before, and the wheel defense mission is relatively easy, but it has been different from tonight. From 12 a.m. to 6 a.m., I asked the First Regiment to enter the first-level combat readiness state and push me to the No. 3 defense line."

Qian Yiwen, the leader of the First Regiment, was stunned for a moment: "Sir, the barbarians have never attacked in the early morning for so long."

p5092 glanced at him: "It is precisely because they never attacked during this period before that this rule is too easy to summarize, so you should be more vigilant. Moreover, you must do ideological work with the soldiers, and from today on you will take on the most important tasks on the entire defensive position."

Everyone looked at each other. According to p5092, if the barbarians launch the most fierce attack, they will definitely choose this time period of dawn?

p5092 said: "The Central Plains people need vision when shooting hot weapons, but the requirements for vision when raids are relatively low. Even if they only consider the advantages of both sides, the Expeditionary Legion should choose to raid at night instead of specifically avoiding this time period, so this is the problem. I will only explain this matter once. Next, you must prepare what I asked you to prepare in the second regiment."

The second regiment leader Kong Sheng stood up and said, "I understand."

"If I guess correctly," said p5092: "The general attack of the Expeditionary Legion will start tonight, and tomorrow night at the latest. Everyone, it depends on yours or not. Maybe you and I will be buried here in a few days. The barbarians have more troops than us. Even if they have just won a great victory, they still have ten times more troops than ours."

"You also understand that in my combat plan, we have to exchange one for ten with the Expedition Legion, so the most optimistic situation is that we and the barbarians die here. You may not even have time to sleep in the next few days, and someone will be injured and someone will be exhausted. But I hope you will always understand why you are standing here before that moment comes. Okay, let's go."

After saying that, all the officers walked out of the command camp. Wang Yun asked, "You deliberately said the situation so badly, aren't you afraid of affecting your morale?"

"If I don't say it, can't they think of it?" p5092 said calmly: "Actually, everyone understands what we are going to face now. Putting it to death is what we should do. I want them to remember clearly when fighting that killing ten barbarians is considered to be profitable. Killing one more will lead to one more life. This is the courage to burn the boat, and the power full of despair in adversity."

"Then why do you speculate that the barbarian will launch a strong attack?" Wang Yun was puzzled.

But p5092 did not answer this question.

...

In the thick night, the Zuoyun Mountains lie on the wilderness, among the strange mountains, the defensive positions seem particularly small and powerless.

However, in fact, hundreds of defense lines were crisscrossed on the defensive positions. When soldiers passed by, the bunker was as high as their chests.

This is because the Expeditionary Legion does not use thermal weapons. If it is used, they will have to dig out trenches and air-raid shelters. The height of the trenches must be climbed with a ladder. When you look at the situation outside the trenches, you have to use a periscope specifically erected in the trenches, just like you are in a submarine.

On the position, this crisscrossing bunker is like rows of houses. p5092 also specifically names each main passage, such as Zhenxing Road, Shaman Road, etc.

This is not for the sake of morale, but for the convenience of sometimes chaotic combat, the orders can be quickly conveyed.

In fact, these are very common and ancient methods in war. Since humans have other communication methods, some people have gradually abandoned this method. However, now the communication equipment of the Sixth Combat Brigade has been discontinued, and p5092 has picked up this method.

At this time, a veteran on Zhenxing Road leaned against the bunker beside him, and was writing on the bunker with the abandoned bullet shell in his hand. The new recruit came over and saw that it was the three words Zhenxing Road.

However, as soon as the recruit was about to say something, the veteran suddenly stood up and looked out of the cover, and picked up the military telescope beside him.

In the distance, black figures were rushing towards us quickly, with dense crowds of people like a tide, which made the veteran's scalp numb: "Enemy attack! Hurry up, notify the command center, the barbarian is here!"

Before this, everyone was curious that the barbarians never launched an offensive during this period of time. Is the order of the commander p5092 right?

Now, everyone has the answer, p5092 is correct.

The command camp had just received news of the enemy's attack, and Wang Yun turned to look at p5092: "How did you guess the Expeditionary Legion is coming? You didn't answer me before."

"Because I checked the supplies brought back by the young coach," said p5092: "There are a lot of supplies, but one-quarter of them are black bread. You have tasted those black bread, which are sour, astringent and bitter. Even the barbarians probably don't like eating this kind of thing, right?"

"Yes," said Wang Yun: "I don't feel that's something that people eat."

"This shows that their supplies themselves are in a very shortage. The environment in the north may be too harsh, so they went south because they couldn't eat enough," p5092 analyzed: "And now, they have just broken through the fire defense line and found a new source of supplies, but were taken half of them by the young man. As well as their own supplies and fire supplies, the young man has not let go of them."

"So, their plan to support the war was interrupted by the young marshal," Wang Yun said in a daze.

"That's right," said p5092: "Now that the supplies are being taken away in one fell swoop. If they don't gamble and launch a general attack, they may not be hungry before they beat the Central Plains people. Although it sounds a bit awkward, it's no longer the barbarians taking the initiative. You may not believe it, but they may think they are fighting back..."
