89 Cautious
On the city wall.
Han Liqi lowered his head and looked at Jiang Li and the others with a frown.
state Lord, Jiang Li took almost all the soldiers of the great Xia city with him. What is he going to do?
Chang Xu, the new Chief Constable of the county government, couldn't help but ask.
i don't know,
Han Liqi shook his head. our mission is to defend the great Xia city.
Yes.
Chang Xu nodded.
In reality.
jiang li didn't plan to go there in person. he planned to stay in great xia city and use the intel mech to transmit the battlefield images to give remote commands.
but
After careful consideration.
No. Jiang Li rejected the idea.
first of all
the communication function of the intel mech at the perfected-stage of level one was not strong enough. the camera could only capture part of the battlefield.
Furthermore
The situation on the battlefield was ever-changing. Without being able to observe the overall situation of the battlefield, it would be impossible to respond in time. If something went wrong, it would be too late to regret.
In the future, with the construction of the army base', more and more powerful mechanical soldiers would be unlocked, and they would be able to command the war remotely. However, it was not possible for now.
the entire army had already set off.
Hong Tianqi led 2000 city guards at the front, Hu Dong and the others followed with 1000 members of the Sirius gang, and Jiang Li's mech Army with 2770 soldiers was the last.
With the fastest speed, they rushed to the Rocky Mountain'.
They had to reach the Rocky Mountain before the demon Army so that they could make preparations and set up an ambush. Otherwise, all their plans would be in vain.
contact information mech xx02.
Jiang Li said.
Yes.
Xx01 nodded.
Buzzzzzz!
The communication was connected.
Chief sovereign.
On the screen.
Xx02 saluted Jiang Li.
Yes.
okay. Jiang Li nodded and asked, where is the monster army now?
Reporting to the hegemon, the monster army has already left the Green Mountain Range.
xx02 replied. at the same time, it turned the camera and captured the demon army in the distance. it was like a huge ancient python, moving quickly.
so fast.
Jiang Li frowned. we need to speed up too.
continue monitoring.
go! Jiang Li ordered.
Yes.
Xx02 nodded.
On the other side.
In the demon Army.
commander vibrato, your long snake marching formation' has truly broadened this city lord's horizons. i didn't expect that we would be able to pass through the green mountain range so quickly. with this speed, we'll definitely be able to reach the great xia city before dawn.
Qing Wenling said excitedly.
Yes.
The snake-biting man only nodded his head slightly. His brows furrowed slightly as he turned his head to look behind him from time to time. However, he did not discover anything. He muttered softly, why do i feel like i'm being watched?
Surveillance?
Qing Wenling was puzzled. it can't be. Snake commander, you're thinking too much. We're moving in such a secretive manner that no one knows about it. How can we be monitored?
commander naga, you're probably overthinking things.
Lin Yi said.
I hope so,
The snake biting man took a deep breath. With a deep gaze, he shouted, all troops, speed up!
Yes!
The demon soldiers replied.
Time passed.
After a few hours.
let's go. jiang li and the others arrived at rock village first and passed by the village gate. because it was night, most of the villagers were asleep.
After leaving Rock Village, he could see Rock Mountain in the distance.
The mountain was not small. It was almost a few hundred meters high. The vegetation was sparse, revealing hard granite. The center of the mountain was forcefully chiseled, forming a straight path. After entering it, one could only see the sky through the gap. The mountain walls on both sides were steep with protruding rocks.
Buzzzzzz! Buzzzzzz!
Jiang Li. xx01 immediately walked to Jiang Li's side, raised his wrist, and projected an image. Xx02 and xx01 were in contact.
What's the situation?
Jiang Li asked.
My Lord, the demon Army will arrive at the Rocky Mountain in half an hour at most.
Xx02 said.
half an hour,
Jiang Li's pupils constricted. He didn't even let the city guards and the members of the Sirius gang rest. He shouted, Hong Tianqi, Hu Dong, act immediately.
you guys hide in the Rocky Mountain first and only reveal yourselves when you see the demon Army. At that time, you can fight and retreat at the same time and lure them into the Rocky Mountain.
Yes.
Understood.
Hong Tianqi and the others all nodded.
2,000 city guards and 1000 gang members were led by Hong Tianqi and the others into the Rocky Mountain and hid in the forest.
To the top of the mountain.
Jiang Li climbed to the top of the Rocky Mountain with more than 2000 meches.
Firearm meches, set up the battle line.
stop! Jiang Li shouted.
Sniper mech JJ01 stayed next to Jiang Li. He found a suitable sniping spot, then lay down and set up the sniper cannon. Only the black muzzle was exposed, pointing at the entrance of the Rocky Mountain.
the seven hundred and thirty-nine firearm meches were all perfected-stage level one. under jiang li's order, they were divided into two teams and set up battle lines on both sides.
There were three hundred and sixty-nine firearm meches on the left side of the mountain wall. They formed a straight line and aimed their machine guns at the road below.
on the right side of the mountain, there were 370 firearm meches. they were also in a straight line with their machine guns.
Jiang Li stood on the right side of the mountain and looked down at the one-way sky passage. He looked at the entrance.
On the right side of the mountain wall.
The cold weapon meches, combat meches, and biochemical meches were all beside Jiang Li. He didn't ask them to move yet. They were waiting for his next order.
Time passed.
Ten minutes later.
vaguely.
Under the bright moonlight, Jiang Li could already see the vague figures of the monster army. They were like a giant python slithering on the ground at a very fast speed.
He came so quickly.
get ready. Jiang Li narrowed his eyes. get ready.
Kachaa! kachaa!
All the firearm meches opened the safety of their machine guns and loaded the bullets. They pulled the trigger with their left hand and took off their submachine guns with their right hand.
at the same time.
Xx02 sent a message to remind Jiang Li that the monster army had arrived at the rock Village and would be at the rock Mountain soon.
the ground shook slightly.
More than 10000 demon soldiers formed a snake-shaped formation and marched at an extremely fast speed. They were surrounded by spiritual energy and looked like snakes.
they're here.
Jiang Li hid his tracks and saw the monster army clearly. They had a strong military aura. They were well-disciplined and their steps were neat. Each soldier was experienced.
Obviously.
This was definitely a powerful demon Army.
stop, he said.
Suddenly.
The Ouroboros immediately raised his hand to stop the Army. He raised his head to look at the Rocky Mountain ahead. The terrain that entered his sight made him frown deeply.
What's wrong?
Qing Wenling stopped as well. commander snake, why did you stop all of a sudden? he asked.
we'll take a detour around this mountain.
the ouroboros said.
Why?
Qing Wenling asked directly, with the size of this mountain, it will take some time if we take a detour. There is also a Lake in front of us. We will have to take another detour.
Aren't we in a hurry?
mayor qing, this terrain is a great taboo for armies. it's too risky to enter rashly.
moreover, with the speed of the long snake marching formation', the snake-biting man explained, even if we take a long detour, it won't affect the overall situation. So, there's no need to take the risk.
Commander Naga, you are being far too cautious.
Lin Yi said.
that's right, commander Ouroboros. Besides, our operation this time is so secretive. How could someone possibly set up an ambush in such a place?
Qing Wenling said.
We'll take a detour,
The snake didn't reply, instead, he gave the order.
