Chapter 452: Sudden situation, cunning enemy scout

The day after Chen Jiao led the team to leave, Chen Subaru was commanding the military town monks to deploy the third layer of the chain defense formation. At this time, Lin Yue, who was out for reconnaissance, returned with several scouts.

While Chen Subaru was paying attention to the formation of the monks, he asked Lin Yue through sound transmission: "Have you made contact?"

Lin Yue responded: "We have been contacted, but she was seriously injured and is recovering in a hidden place."

Chen Subaru thought for a while and said: "I know where she is, it is not safe. If she does not need to avoid it, let her come to the military town for treatment. We can at least provide better treatment conditions and basic shelter."

Lin Yue hesitated for a moment and said, "But her identity..."

Chen Subaru responded calmly: "The current situation is tense, why should we care about our identity? We are in urgent need of backbone. One more person will provide more protection."

Lin Yue immediately saluted respectfully: "Yes, my subordinates will go and pick her up immediately."

Chen Subaru nodded slightly and immediately reminded: "Lin Yue, I found a few places where strangers are suspected to be. If necessary, be sure to avoid them."

After saying this, Chen Subaru marked the coordinate information in Lin Yue's sea of ​​consciousness with his spiritual consciousness. This is Chen Subaru's newly realized technique: for long-term tracking targets, if the target's sea of ​​consciousness is open, the tracking mark can be integrated with the known area. In this way, Chen Subaru can use his spiritual consciousness to mark the map, asking Lin Yue to pay special attention to these areas.

Although Lin Yue's consciousness is far less broad than Chen Subaru's consciousness, Chen Subaru has set a long-term tracking mark on Gui Wu's body, which can sense her location from a long distance. Although Lin Yue can sense Gui Wu through the magic mark and transmit sounds beyond the scope of consciousness, considering that Gui Wu is seriously injured, Lin Yue still needs to go to greet him in person to avoid accidents on the way.

Although Chen Subaru kept Chen Jiao and Lin Yue by his side, their roles were completely different from others. Thanks to the expansion of Chen Subaru's spiritual consciousness, he has been able to cover most of the areas around the military town of Puyang County, allowing him to gain early insight into the dynamics of enemy forces below those who are monks in the Transformation of God Realm.

Although there is no memory of her previous life in the memory left by Xiao Ling to Chen Subaru, the teaching materials compiled by Xiao Xuan in Supervisory Fort contain some crystallization of cultural wisdom in the material world. Among them, it is mentioned that the art of war goes like this: "Any warrior, with Perfect harmony leads to victory through wonder. Therefore, those who are good at making wonders are as endless as heaven and earth, and as endless as rivers and seas."

Although numerous defensive measures have been deployed in various military towns, the enemy's situation is still unclear. If you only rely on defensive positions for passive defense, it is easy for the enemy to find loopholes.

Lin Yue's role is not limited to defensive investigation, but to assist Chen Subaru in collecting intelligence beyond the scope of his spiritual consciousness. Only by proactively investigating and finding out the details of the enemy as soon as possible can we find a way to break the situation.

As one of the military towns closest to the Yellow River defense line, when Chen Subaru collects enough information about the enemy, the battle ahead will surely become stalemate. At this time, the communication formation may be paralyzed by enemy counterattacks. At this time, Lin Yue will serve as a messenger, conveying general information to the rear military town, so that the rear defense line and reinforcements can formulate targeted tactical strategies.

As the general banner of Shenglinwei, Chen Jiao naturally has some trump cards. When Chen Subaru attacks, she can at least ensure that the formation will not fall immediately. For Chen Subaru, although the strategic significance of the military town of Gaoping County is crucial, the tactical significance of Puyang County is more prominent in terms of geographical location. The existence of Gaoping County can ensure the stability of the final defense line, and the military town of Puyang County is the guarantee that Gaoping County will not fall.

In order to quickly break through the no-man's land south of the Yellow River defense line, the enemy will inevitably send small groups of troops to harass and contain the military towns near Gaoping County, while the main force will attack Gaoping County at full speed.

Even if Gaoping County goes all out to defend, there will still be at least a five to ten times gap in strength. Although the current military intelligence analysis shows that enemy troops trying to sneak in secretly may not carry heavy siege equipment, Chen Subaru knows well that if you defend for a long time, you will lose.

The current situation is completely different from that of the military town of Taishan County. At that time, the enemy tried to conduct a test of encirclement and reinforcements, and the focus of the attack was Suzaku Fort in the south. Although the enemy troops carried siege engines, their attacks were not determined. Now, the puppet army urgently needs to quickly penetrate Gaoping County and then raid the defense line of the southern military town. As long as a breakthrough is found, even if some men are lost, the army can cross the defense line, break into pieces, and disappear on the Shanxi border, making it difficult to be discovered.

Therefore, as the attacker, the human puppet army only needs to use all its spiritual power to attack, and the powerful spiritual power continuously oppresses the defense formation of the military town. Under the sheer pressure, the morale of the Gaoping County army was bound to weaken. Human puppets are different from the Saint Puppet Sect puppets. They will not kill the defenders. In this case, the weak-willed monks and mortal auxiliaries will quickly collapse. Even if there are still conditions for counterattack in the military town, it will not be effective.

Chen Subaru, who had experienced the battle of Taishan County, fully considered the psychology of the defenders. He will not be trapped in the vortex of defending Gaoping County, but to disrupt the offensive of the puppet army, he must organize a surprise force to penetrate directly behind the enemy's rear, so that their attack formation cannot be used at full strength.

Chen Subaru was thinking deeply about the defensive strategy and was at the defensive formation expansion site. Although the main body of the formation has been roughly completed, this is the third level of the formation, which has been deployed outside the core defense area of ​​the military town. Therefore, he needs a more sophisticated camouflage, and his current main task is to set up some decoys so that enemy scouts and harassing troops will not immediately discover the location of the formation itself.

However, soon there were changes in several suspected enemy scout strongholds that he was paying attention to. After briefly predicting the other party's behavior, he immediately informed Xue'er, who had been by his side: "Xue'er, go and investigate."

Xue'er's hidden figure immediately flew to the position designated by Chen Subaru. After she left, Chen Subaru continued to observe the enemy's situation, and then sent a message to Lin Yue: "Lin Yue, the whereabouts of you and Gui Wu may have been exposed. Enemy scouts It is moving towards you quickly and expects to launch a surprise attack on you at the scheduled rendezvous point."

Lin Yue quickly replied: "Received, please give instructions, young master."

After exchanging on-the-ground intelligence with Xue'er, Chen Subaru sent a message to Lin Yue: "Lin Yue, give up the rendezvous immediately and change course and move south at full speed. I will send someone to respond."

After finishing the message transmission with Lin Yue, Chen Subaru observed the movements of several people for a while. After receiving the order, Lin Yue and Gui Wu decisively changed their direction of travel. The scout who originally moved towards them stopped for a moment and then immediately chased Lin Yue.

"As expected." Chen Subaru pondered for a moment before making a judgment.

He immediately summoned several infantry and cavalry captains and patrol commanders in the military town, instructed the enemy scouts on the location of their strongholds, and ordered them to attack separately.

The military garrison was not sufficient to begin with, but Chen Subaru still had to divide his troops to attack, which made the generals feel puzzled. However, as a Nascent Soul cultivator and acting guardian general in charge of military defense, no one dared to disobey Chen Subaru's orders, so he had no choice but to take the order and attack.
