Chapter 774 Interception(1/2)
The largest golden armored dragon turtle in the entire legion was currently marching in the center of the queue. Not only was it dragging three advanced magic crystal cannons behind it, it also had a military tent erected on its back.
There were only three people in the military tent, Neo, Murry and Karen.
The daily routine commander-level meeting has ended. The reason why this small meeting is continued is specifically for the "extracurricular tutoring" for Karen, the regiment commander.
In the previous meeting, Karen issued the latest in a series of orders.
Now, Karen needs to understand more deeply why she issued these orders.
Any other commander would probably not be able to tolerate being turned into an empty puppet, but Karen doesn't mind. Everything requires a process of cognitive learning.
Not long ago, Neo suggested that Karen learn military skills, but Karen's response was very negative.
But Neo has never worried about this, because he is well aware of the family's addiction to learning, oh no, addiction to robbery.
Look in front of you. This guy is sitting there with a notebook on his knee and a pen in his hand. So, never believe the top student who says that he hates studying. That’s just his habit of preparing for the next time he surprises you.
Make a foreshadowing.
Murry hung the photos and paintings on the blackboard. The picture shows a winding pit, which can also be called a canyon, as if many huge loaches had stretched and curled up here in a chaotic manner.
"This is the landform of the Chia Grand Canyon, and it is also the target we received military orders to capture and establish a stronghold. From a strategic location, this place is located in the southeastern part of the desert. Because it is rich in secret iron ore, it was here as early as the Desert God Cult period.
It was developed and built into a holy place during the Desert God Cult period.
During the desert civil war, this was one of the first areas controlled by the rebels, because the secret iron ore was a consumable required for teleportation circles and was of high value. After the rebels took control of this area, it was convenient for them to use the mining here to construct a
Own transmission operation system.
Later, our order force intervened and attacked here. The desert rebels chose to evacuate without resisting. At that time, the Knights did not adopt a garrison strategy. Instead, they destroyed the infrastructure and mining equipment here and chose to move.
Currently, according to the intelligence from my Whip of Order, the mineral rights in the Chia Grand Canyon have been mortgaged by the Desert Rebels to the Earth God Cult in exchange for the Earth God Cult’s support for the Desert Rebels.”
Karen turned the pen in his hand and said: "I once threw away the place that I didn't even bother to occupy, but now I have to take it back and operate it. I can only say that this change of wind direction is really unexpected."
In the early days, Order only supported the desert to counter the rebellion; when the desert was about to collapse due to the desert rebels and was about to be completely absorbed by the desert, and the identities of the orthodox and rebels were about to be reversed, the power of Order began to intervene.
In the first phase of the war, in order to prevent itself from falling into the quagmire of a security war, and also taking into account the objective factors of limited troop strength, the order basically did not divide its troops for garrison, but used destruction and massacre to eliminate the resistance potential of the desert rebels.
This is no longer possible. The entry of the coalition forces means that Order no longer has the same ability to unilaterally crush the desert rebels.
And after this round of rest, both sides have gathered a large number of troops. Like two fists that had previously contracted in tacit agreement, they began to open up. Every key territory is a target that needs to be fought for.
If we consider the continuation of the war, we may have to repair the infrastructure we destroyed before.
Neo nodded, giving Karen a rare face, and echoed: "Things are developing too fast."
Karen asked: "What is the size of the enemy force here now?"
Murry replied: "The latest information is that there have been a small number of rebels and followers of the Earth God Cult in this area. They should be carrying out small-scale remedial mining. There is no news of an organized force stationed there for the time being."
"Are you sure?" Karen asked.
"We can only wait for the investigation team led by Miss Pu'er and Philomena to find out the exact situation."
Karen began to think, if he could easily occupy this place, could he also take advantage of the opportunity to recover and mine the mineral deposits? Mosquito legs are also meat, so there is a tiger at home that can never be fed enough.
Neo stood up and walked to the floating map in the central area, which was marked with five black arrows.
The Whip of Order Legion is affiliated to the 9th Army of the Order Desert Battlefield. This army group has a 12 regular regiments adapted from the garrison as the core, and has four militia regiments under its jurisdiction, of which the Whip of Order Militia is one of them.
The Ninth Army does not belong to a sequence with strong combat effectiveness. The measurement standard is very simple. Whichever army has the Knights of Order in it, it is definitely the Ace Army.
Therefore, like the Ninth Army, a regular regiment leads four militia regiments to perform tasks such as clearing blind spots and occupying advanced strongholds. In Neo's words, they are battlefield cheerleaders.
But the general direction is like this, but in the specific implementation, it is the Whip of Order Legion that takes the middle road. The 12th Regular Regiment is on the flank. They should have seen the personnel and equipment list and made this change in the military order.
After all, whether it is the size of the soldiers or the level of equipment, the Whip of Order Legion far exceeds other militia regiments, and even surpasses the regular regiment next door.
However, this "backbone" position did not make Neo feel happy, because the actual command of the Ninth Army was in the hands of the commander of the 12th Regular Regiment. He only had a standing position but no corresponding power status. This sense of dislocation
It made Neo feel very awkward.
Neo said: "Order to set up camp."
Murray reminded: "But it's just after noon."
Neo shook his head: "We are marching much faster than them. We have to wait for them. We don't know the specific situation ahead, so we should try to maintain a group formation when marching."
Originally, this was enough to explain, but Neo looked at Karen and continued:
"I'm worried that we ran too fast, broke away from the formation, and became a bulge. If there is a situation on the other side, they might take the opportunity to surround us. When the time comes, we will stand firm and wait for reinforcements. I'm afraid that the friendly forces outside will not be able to attack us.
Come in; if we want to break through in time, but we are worried that the 12th Regular Regiment has ordered us to hold on, it is better to be more cautious and not be aggressive.
The marching speed of this regular regiment should not be so slow, but it brought itself down to the same level as the three ordinary militia regiments. I suspect that the commander of the regular regiment gave the order to the three militia regiments alone. He may have hoped more
Let’s run ahead and rush to the front row to explore the way.”
Karen asked: "Do you think so?"
Neo shrugged: "You Karen will put the overall situation first, but not every commander can have the same moral quality as you. Our organization and equipment can easily attract jealousy.
Besides, as a commander, it is a normal operation to send a troop to explore the route, but the other party may also have some scruples and be embarrassed to give us such an order openly. They just expect us to rush forward in a rush."
Karen said: "I will be responsible for communicating on this issue."
"Okay, that's it. Now just pray that there will be no enemy garrison in that canyon; that terrain will cause a lot of headaches in a tough battle. No matter how powerful the magic crystal cannon is, it can't hit the underground hideouts.
mouse.
Very good, Pu'er has led a team to investigate, and I believe Pu'er can bring back the most accurate information. After all, cats are best at catching mice."
After speaking, Neo walked out of the military tent. He still wanted to patrol the camp.
Karen sat inside for a while, made up some notes, then closed the book and walked out.
At this time, the military order to set up camp has been issued, and nearly a hundred giants are unloading. After unloading, they can turn into normal human sizes and rest. It is precisely because of the high configuration of them and these dragon turtles that their own army can
Going so fast.
Because you cannot abandon these war instruments and various baggage marches, otherwise you will encounter the despair of the Night God believers facing the defense of the towering city wall that night.
Little Kangna walked up to Karen and said, "Next time Sister Pu'er goes out, can you take me with you?"
Karen shook his head: "No."
"Why? I don't understand."
"Because you need to stay with me and protect me."
Xiao Kangna frowned and nodded: "Okay, I understand."
But soon, little Kangna raised her head again and said, "There's no need to take a shower today, right?"
"Don't worry, our military tent will have a simple shower room in the future. All you need to do is fetch water."
"But this is a desert, and water is very precious."
Karen opened her palms, and the ancestor Allen's water power condensed into a water ball, reflecting the "happy" face of little Kangna.
In fact, Karen originally wanted to avoid being special as much as possible, but every time he went to the public bathroom in the camp to take a bath, he would encounter a group of male priests with soap on their bodies and foam on their heads to solemnly salute him.
He is not an artist, nor does he have a sculpting habit. He is really indifferent to such scenes.
After staying in the legion for a long time, he gradually realized that leading the legion is not leading a squad. The squad leader or group leader can live and eat with the soldiers without doing anything special. At his level, he insists on pursuing the so-called
Absolute equality and mysophobia will not achieve the desired effect.
"By the way, have you had lunch?" asked Karen, who missed lunch time for a small meeting.
Little Kangna nodded: "I ate."
"What's lunch, or a few warm balls of mush?"
Xiao Kangna shook her head: "No."
"Huh, that's good."
"I packed it for you and put it in the tent. It's already freezing cold now."
Karen felt a little nauseous. Along the way from Rui Lan to Wein, he had suffered a lot in other aspects. The only thing he had not been mistreated was his stomach.
Xiao Kangna said: "The leader of the cooking team told me that he can open a small stove for you."
While talking, Xiao Kangna started stirring:
"I'll make you a separate serving of hot paste."
…
The Grand Canyon of Chia is criss-crossed with ravines, like the wrinkles on an old man’s face, intricate and intricate.
A big golden retriever was running on the edge of the canyon, and sitting on it was a black cat.
There are curls of feathers floating in the backpack hanging on both sides of Golden Retriever's body. This is an extremely dexterous low-level holy weapon that can effectively increase speed and reduce movement consumption.
After their investigation, except for three mines that were still being mined secretly, no other coalition forces were seen.
However, when he was about to enter a descending area ahead, Pu'er raised his paw, but Kevin didn't need it to remind him, he immediately leaned back his dog's neck, slid a short distance and stopped.
Pu'er amber-like cat eyes began to observe the surroundings carefully, while Kevin closed his eyes and began to smell the ground.
"Did you notice, silly dog?"
