In the back mountain, Lan Xue hid in a concealed spot, continuously sniping targets. Five enemies had already fallen under Lan Xue's gun. For large-scale battles, these five n might be negligible, but for a well-trained elite squad, losing five was more than half the team, an unbearable cost. After all, each individual was trained at a great expense and ti.
Mountain Eagle and Lan Xue ford a pincer-like formation, killing enemies with their cooperation. Three n died under Mountain Eagle's gun, while Ghost Hand bravely stord the frontlines with a Type 95 assault rifle, continuously directing the frontline team to counterattack. His active performance naturally made him the primary target for the enemy's hunt, but anyone trying to attack Ghost Hand was pre-empted by Lan Xue and Mountain Eagle. Unknowingly, Ghost Hand beca bait, attracting enemies to expose themselves.
Hook's tribal ard forces understood the stakes of life and death, showing no fear of battle. With Ghost Hand's command, their combat power significantly increased, fighting staunchly. Against fifty elite Soldier King level attackers, they stood firm like Mount Tai, resolutely blocking the enemy, their eyes bloodshot with rage.
After a fierce kill, the attacking allied forces suddenly retreated, with swift and sudden speed, leaving everyone dumbfounded and montarily unable to react. Lan Xue was also surprised as she watched the retreating allies, unable to understand their true intentions. She quickly reported the situation to Luo Zheng via earpiece.
Luo Zheng was stunned upon learning of the enemy retreat. Even for a probing attack, it shouldn't have ended so hastily, right? He instructed everyone to reinforce the battleground, prepare for a major battle, and let the reserve forces pull back for rest while watching vigilantly towards the foot of the mountain, puzzled about what play the allied forces were enacting.
The forest quickly returned to calm, with Hook's n reinforcing their defenses as Luo Zheng's n spread out to scout, preventing enemy raids. Luo Zheng continued observing the enemy at the foot of the mountain on the frontal battlefield, but the dense forest obscured the enemy's shadows, with only occasional wolf howls echoing.
Shortly, Lan Xue ca running with a heavy expression, softly speaking to Luo Zheng: "In the previous battle, Hook's n lost thirty-two, with eighteen wounded, but they killed eight of the enemy, though it's unclear how many were injured. What were they up to? Given the situation at the ti, if they'd attacked with more determination, they could have completely breached the defense and charged up."
"Because they can't afford the loss." Luo Zheng suddenly had an epiphany, speaking coldly, "If I guessed correctly, they wanted to break our defense from the back mountain, but since our other three forces remained unmoved, they didn't dare to gamble. Besides, losing eight n in less than five minutes of attack is a significant loss for them, unbearable. Don't forget, they're an allied force, internally unstable, united for profit without grudges or enmities. Who wants to bear such a huge loss? Except for Bloodsucker or the Wild Wolf rcenary Group."
"It doesn't seem like it's them. What you say makes sense. It appears they truly are unstable internally, which we can exploit. What do you plan to do next?" Lan Xue asked softly.
"Dayti deploynts are difficult, so after dark, scatter the reserve forces and set up nurous traps within a 300-ter range in front of the defense line. Even if they can't kill, they can at least delay the enemy's advance. Additionally, set traps between the defense lines, and make them dense." Luo Zheng replied coldly.
"Okay." Lan Xue thought for a mont and agreed. Casting a glance towards the mountain's base, her expression suddenly turned grim, and she continued, "We still have so button bombs left. Should we use them? Also, how about you and I sneak down tonight and find a way to take out the White Wolf King? Once the Wolf King is dead, the pack might scatter and even attack the enemy."
"Good idea, worth a shot. As for the button bombs, we can use them along with the traps. We'll handle the setup ourselves," Luo Zheng whispered, looking towards the mountain base while pondering.
The sky gradually darkened, the night of the primitive forest descended swiftly, and rain seed imminent with the overcast clouds. Luo Zheng's brows furrowed, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes as he said softly, "If there's exposure tonight, things will get complicated. Hopefully, it won't interfere with everyone setting up the traps."
"Do what we can and leave the rest to fate. You stay here and guard. I'll go find Hook to make arrangents." Lan Xue said, departing.
The deploynt plan spread through Hook, setting everyone into motion. Lan Xue instructed Mountain Eagle and others to assist. Everyone chopped wood to make spears, and the dozen engineering shovels brought by Luo Zheng and others were put to full use, reinforcing the fortifications. Without handy tools, they used tree trunks to pry large stones and roll them to the defense line.
Except for the guard team, everyone else was busy. At this life and death mont, no one dared to slack off, working highly efficiently. To concoct poison water with feces, Luo Zheng and others even contributed their helts. A dozen helts were set over campfires, filled with everyone's excrent and the collected poisonous insects, poisonous grass, and so forth. The stench spread far but fortunately, it was boiled at the mountaintop, and the wind dispersed the sll, otherwise no one could withstand the odor.
Luo Zheng quietly hid high in a tree, serving as a lookout, calmly monitoring the situation below the mountain and unable to understand why the allied force had stopped moving. A grave expression took over his face, eyes wide open and cautious, fearing anything missed resulting in unimaginable consequences.
Unbeknownst to Luo Zheng, representatives from various allied forces were gathered by a campfire, fiercely debating. The issue was simple: Piero was injured and no longer suited to be the allied forces representative, and each faction pushed for their own candidate as the new allied force commander.
Piero cast a complex glance at the Snow Bear Special Forces captain; representing Sam Country, Piero ca for national interests, yet unknown to all, Piero had another identity: a spy for the Arctic Bear Country. In other words, Piero was a double agent; otherwise, the Arctic Bear Country would never agree to have Piero as the allied force total commander. Bloodsucker, with a cold expression, said, "I don't care who commands, I only have one question: will there be a raid tonight?"
Piero coldly glanced at Bloodsucker, fixing his gaze on Tang Tian. Temporarily unwilling to offend Sam Country, Tang Tian nodded subtly in understanding, saying, "Whatever happens tonight, there must be unified command, or it'll be chaos. I continue to support Mr. Piero; besides Piero, I respect no one else."
"I support him too." Instantly, three representatives echoed.
This brought Piero four votes of support. The Arctic Bear Country representative feigned helplessness, saying, "Backing Mr. Piero is fine, but there must be an attack tonight to turn the tide, or don't bla us for not supporting."
With five supporting votes, plus Piero's own vote, they held a majority. The representatives from opposing factions exchanged glances and chose to remain silent.
