Chapter 534 Reinforcements(2/2)
In fact, this morning's battle happened very suddenly. The usually silent shogunate army suddenly gathered thousands of people and divided them into small groups to advance towards the base camp of the resistance army.
If it weren't for the sharp eyes of the sentry, it would have been possible for the group of people to be pushed down the mountain before they were discovered.
After more than half a month of rest, the strength of the resistance army has also recovered to about 80%, and the number of people capable of fighting has increased to more than 800.
At first, when facing the shogunate's military strength, Goro did not panic.
Although the enemy's number was greater than his own, depending on the terrain conditions, he was confident of defending even if there were 200 fewer enemies.
But when the other party's senior general took action, he changed his mind.
A total of four captains joined forces to attack, and among them was the powerful Kujo Sora, who caught them off guard in an instant.
Those four people seemed to be in a deserted place in the rebel formation.
The rebels who had just arrived at the foot of the mountain were immediately repelled by several people, and even the terrain was changed.
If the opponent hadn't taken the initiative to retreat and allowed the army to fight hand-to-hand, the subsequent damage would have been multiplied several times.
"The casualties this time were about a hundred people. Although it was only a short-term contact, the other party was obviously well prepared. Many of the mechanisms we had set up before were destroyed by the other party and did not play their due role.
"
Speaking of this, Wulang also felt a little helpless.
Being able to turn a mountain peak into a base camp for the resistance forces naturally requires more than just stationing on the mountain.
Various elemental restrictions, mechanisms, traps, sentries and the like need to be arranged.
This is also the reason why the shogunate army did not dare to enter the mountain before.
But this time the opponent broke the rules and actually followed the retreating rebels into the mountain and destroyed a considerable number of mechanisms and traps.
If the power of the restriction hadn't exceeded the opponent's level of acceptance, the shogunate army would have occupied the mountain peak by now and was preparing to march on Kaijishima.
But even so, the shogunate army attacked a third of the mountain and almost saw the base camp of the rebels.
General Inu looked a little regretful, but mostly helpless.
Bai Qiyun can also understand him.
There is really no way to make up for this gap in hard power in a short time.
"Didn't they say something before they left?"
"Ah, yes, they asked us to hand over Mr. Bai, but the rebels have no habit of sending their brothers out on their own initiative, so we didn't pay attention to them."
Wulang looked taken as he should, and Bai Qiyun looked at him and patted his shoulder gently again, with a complicated look on his face.
He had guessed that Kujo Sora was coming for him, but he didn't expect Goro to refuse so firmly.
I owe you a big favor.
Bai Qiyun sighed secretly in his heart.
"It's getting late. I guess the shogunate army won't make much movement today. I'll arrange sentries first and we can talk again during the day tomorrow."
Seeing that the soldiers had finished checking in, Wulang said hello and returned to the camp, where he began to take stock of a series of matters after adding more personnel.
"What a responsible person."
Ying sighed quietly in the young man's ear.
"Indeed, without Wu Lang, the resistance front line might have collapsed long ago."
Bai Qiyun shook his head.
Even Coral Palace Xinhai couldn't support the simultaneous operation of the front and rear lines. She had to thank Goro for stepping forward.
However, Bai Qiyun has never understood Wulang's origin.
It probably has something to do with Kaiji Island, otherwise it wouldn't be a timely help to the rebels.
"By the way, the restrictions we imposed before are still there."
When we returned to the camp this time, the residence of several people was still the same camp as before.
But the originally quiet surroundings are now gradually becoming noisy.
There is no way, the military camp has been expanded, and the place that was originally the edge is no longer the edge, but has become the center of the new military camp.
Bai Qiyun just looked out from the gate of the camp and could see the white sea of military camps.
"Most of them are there. Some of them were removed first because I was afraid of accidentally hurting people."
Ying and Paimon disappeared for a while just now to do this.
Hearing this, Bai Qiyun nodded.
In addition to the previous defense restrictions, Ying added another soundproof restriction.
The hovering wind elemental force can reduce the sound transmission inside and outside, which is a clever application of elemental force.
Bai Qiyun opened the camp curtain, returned indoors, and took out the talisman he had previously seized from Hai Luanggui.
He gave most of them to Wulang, but he also kept one or two for research.
The basic talisman of Liyue is divided into two parts. One is the talisman paper that seals the power and is detonated when used. The second is the concentrated type of small formation. This type of talisman can be used to use the talisman carved on it.
The formation automatically absorbs the elemental power floating between heaven and earth to exert considerable power.
As for the slightly more advanced talisman and seal script, a combination of the two will be used.
For example, the current talisman can attach the fire elemental power enclosed in it to the surface of an object, and its own miniature formation can continuously absorb the fire elemental power between heaven and earth to maintain the burning of the flame.
But Bai Qiyun was not interested in its power at this time, but was curious about its mechanism.
Since this thing can seal the power of the fire element, can it be replaced by the power of steel? What about the power in the jade pendant if it is replaced by the divine power of steel?
