?Everyone understands the principle of seeking wealth while taking risks, but most people don’t have the courage to do it.《》.

The spirits of hell are also intelligent creatures and cannot be exempted from the secular world.

Therefore, most of the soldiers immediately made what they thought was the wisest choice. They took the things they had just grabbed and retreated to the west bank of the Ghost River to see if they could cross the battlefield, return to their hometown, and live a life of rich men from then on.

The territory of the Huoshu Dynasty was so vast that they did not believe that these humans could really bring the flames of war to their hometown so far away from the western front.

Only a small number of soldiers - about three hundred - chose to stay and follow Ishinuma's adventure, and most of them were members of Ishinuma's own original team.

Time is running out, and humans may launch a counterattack at any time. Neither Ishinuma nor the soldiers planning to retreat are willing to waste time. Once the choice is made, Ishinuma immediately declares the meeting to be adjourned.

The soldiers preparing to retreat packed up their belongings, evacuated the settlement in large and small packages, and began to return along the original route.

This road has been proven to be safe, and even the human logistics base ahead has been captured, so there can be no enemies.

Therefore, the soldiers felt at ease and felt that there would be no danger until they crossed the river. They moved in groups like scattered ducks along the road toward the Ghost River, laughing and talking easily, communicating with each other.

income and superficial thoughts about the future. The officers in the team have no idea of ​​​​regulating the team. This is a team composed of broken soldiers. These low-level officers have no prestige in the hearts of the soldiers. How can we implement team discipline at this time?

You are definitely asking for trouble.

The retreating team marched to a position about ten miles away from the settlement and was attacked.

A magical weapon of great power fell from the sky, swallowing up all the stragglers on the road in just an instant.

After the first wave of attacks, half of them were destroyed.

This kind of cluster attack like landslides and earth-shattering reminded these defeated soldiers of the scene when they encountered the human machine puppet army on the battlefield. The survivors were immediately heartbroken and cried out in an earth-shattering voice: "Humans are back!"

"Fleeing in all directions.

Huge machine puppets appeared from all directions. There were not many in number, just over a hundred, but it was enough to deal with the frightened soldiers. The machine puppets quickly chased the fleeing soldiers, holding in their hands

The long straight magical weapon with a black tube sprayed out a chain of flames, beating the defeated soldiers into sieves one by one.

The entire battle lasted less than ten minutes.

The sudden battlefield gradually became silent.

The machine puppets inspected the corpses of the defeated soldiers one by one. If there were any survivors, they would replenish their guns on the spot. Sporadic gunshots and screams occasionally sounded, making it even more cruel and bloody.

About three hundred meters away from the battlefield, there were several stone spirits standing under a clump of tall plants, observing the battlefield. The leader was Ishinuma.

The people around him are all the cronies who signed up to stay as soon as possible, and they are all stone monsters.

One of them looked at the situation on the battlefield and said unbearably: "Sir, just let them go back. Why kill them all? After all, they followed us all the way..."

Ishinuma said expressionlessly: "What if they really encounter a large human army on their way back? Once humans learn that the logistics base is lost, they will definitely return to the division as soon as possible, and then we will all die without a burial place.

!" In addition to this, Ishinuma also has the idea of ​​​​training troops. He is not familiar with the combat methods of machine puppets, and he cannot wait until he officially attacks the next human settlement to retaliate. Now this

It's a perfect opportunity.

Just before the all-soldier meeting was held, Ishinuma secretly arranged for his cronies to lead two hundred new demon-driven machine puppets to an ambush on the only way back to the Ghost River. Once the meeting was over, Ishinuma immediately rushed to the ambush site.

, personally directed this clean ambush.

Although I have seen the sharp attack of the machine puppet, when I was in it, I just felt like the earth was shattering and I was scared to death. I had no time to observe carefully. At this time, I stood outside the battlefield and watched, only to know that this attack was simply indestructible. In the stone marsh

It seems that even the Fire Dragon Cavalry, known as the most elite of the dynasty, is nothing more than a chicken and a dog in the face of this kind of attack.

Can the Dynasty really withstand an attack of this kind of force?

Ishinuma had this hesitation and doubt for a moment, but he soon reaffirmed his belief that no matter what, he was an officer of the dynasty and should fight for the dynasty to the end.

Although in the recent coup, Ishinuma was very aware of the current situation and followed the footsteps of senior military officers and sided with the rebels, but that was only an internal matter of the dynasty after all, and could never be compared with the current national crisis. As a responsible person,

A responsible dynasty officer, he must make due efforts.

After the battlefield was cleaned and the number was counted, it was exactly the same as the number of broken soldiers who signed up to leave.

After simply burying the body, Ishinuma led the team back to the settlement, arranged for fifty cronies and about 300 machine puppets to guard the settlement, and sent two wind spirits to the canyon pass to report to the Eastern Border Command. Related here

Due to the situation, he embarked on a journey with 300 subordinates and 700 machine puppets.

At this time, the company employee who escaped from the logistics settlement had just arrived at another settlement closest to the logistics base. Here he tried to contact the Westward Command Center again, but still did not receive any reply.

The strange silence in the command center gave the mages in the settlement a very bad feeling.

Since the enemy can suddenly appear and ambush the logistics base, is it possible to send another team to directly attack the command center and carry out a beheading operation?

The people left behind now are all new employees of the company who have no combat experience. They have never encountered such a situation. They were a little numb for a while. After some urgent discussions, a few people decided to escape from the logistics base.

The employees continued to go to the command center, while the employees in this settlement organized a defense front on the spot. After making these two decisions, the employee who escaped hesitated and asked whether to contact the company headquarters directly to report the situation here.

Report. This proposal led to a brief silence in this small meeting.

Cross-level reporting has always been the most taboo thing no matter where it is. It is equivalent to a small report to the superiors, and these new employees who were sent to the Western Development Force are the most discriminated against.

A group of people who have been excluded. If they continue to report to other levels, they will no longer be able to stay here. Yang Zhenghua is a person who doesn't rub dirt in his eyes. These mages don't know

Yang Zhenghua has been secretly placed under house arrest by an investigation team sent by the company and the Master Association to investigate the matter. If they had known about it, they might have chosen to report it to the company headquarters. But now, they finally did not choose to report it directly to the head office. They believed that this situation was only temporary.

Caused by strategic negligence, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Western Development Force can solve these troubles by themselves, and there is no need to report them to the company headquarters.
