The system asked me, a weak woman, to challenge a saint

The new tactics of human puppet scouts are very targeted. Although Lin Hu can still use charm to inflict losses on enemy ambushes, her numerical disadvantage makes it difficult for her to last long. Once her own number is reduced to the point where she cannot effectively attract the enemy's attention, the effect of her charm will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, when Lin Hu lost more than 30% of her scouts, she decisively ordered a retreat. How could the enemy scouts let Lin Hu off easily? They organized their manpower and tried several pursuits. However, when pursuing, the scouts need to consider more uncertain factors, and it is difficult to prevent Lin Hu's charm attack. After suffering several losses and leaving behind more than a dozen corpses, the human puppet scouts finally gave up the pursuit.

In fact, Linhu also made a fatal mistake. Although the last few counterattacks were very effective, almost all the pursuers were more or less under the spell of her charm. However, as the number of people caught in the spell increased, her spiritual and spiritual power was quickly exhausted.

If the puppets saw her flaw and chose to continue the pursuit, her men's losses might exceed 70%, or even the entire army would be annihilated.

After being about forty miles away from the enemy's stronghold, Lin Hu no longer had the spiritual power to maintain his sprint. For the next thirty miles, she was carried back to the military town by several female scouts in turn.

When a monk is mentally fatigued, the speed of recovering his spiritual power is very slow, and may even stagnate for a short time. Ordinary monks' martial arts fights often don't last too long. Unless they are in a desperate situation, they will not put themselves in a state of mental fatigue. Therefore, even if monks do not need to rest, they will regularly adjust their breath, meditate or sleep to ensure sufficient spiritual power, thereby recovering the mental consumption caused by casting spells or externalizing consciousness and spiritual consciousness, so that the spiritual power can operate at its best. .

When Lin Hu approached the military town, his mental fatigue finally eased slightly, and his spiritual power returned to the minimum supply. Therefore, when she met with Li Zhong, she looked quite embarrassed. When communicating with Chen Subaru, Chen Subaru also heard the fatigue in her voice.

After Lin Hu reported the current situation of Gaoping County to Chen Subaru, Chen Subaru also briefly described what happened in Puyang County these days, and informed Lin Hu of the confrontation between himself and Li Minke and others, as well as the analysis of the current situation.

Lin Hu asked worriedly: "Young Master, how is Lin Yue's condition now?"

The day after Chen Subaru returned to the military town, he learned that Lin Yue had also returned safely. He checked the conditions of the two of them and found that Gui Wu was seriously injured, so he arranged for doctors to give her emergency treatment and use the best medicine in the military town to help her quickly regain her fighting strength. Lin Yue was unscathed, but Chen Subaru still asked her to rest temporarily, so she went to take care of Gui Wu.

Chen Subaru told Lin Hu truthfully: "Lin Yue is fine and should still be taking care of Gui Wu. Gui Wu was seriously injured, and the doctors in the military town are doing their best to treat him."

After Lin Hu learned that Lin Yue was safe and sound, he stopped asking about her situation and changed the subject: "Young Master, I think your victory in Puyang County may be difficult to repeat in Gaoping County. There is no one as strong as you here. The monks don’t have enough troops to attack, so Li Linghu’s current defensive strategy is really helpless.”

Chen Subaru responded: "Lin Hu, after the interrogation, you go to rest first and adjust your condition. You and your scouts may have to work harder in the near future. Although the puppet scouts will not rush to attack the military town, they may have some weapons in their hands. The detection range exceeds 20 miles. Your scout line must go 30 miles outside the military town to suppress the opponent's scouts. However, in this way, your scouts' situation will become very dangerous. If your men suffer losses, you must personally take command.

However, you only need to insist on bringing the supplies back to the army that is out of the military town. During this time, you need to send a few scouts to the south to find out when the supplies will return. I estimate that the soldiers and horses from the four military towns will arrive at the military town of Gaoping County at the same time and then divide their forces. At that time, you need to intercept the troops outside the military town, tell Lin Jiao the information you know, and let her try to seize command of the team. Li Zhong was responsible for temporarily preserving all supplies in Gaoping County, while Lin Jiao must lead the army to bypass the military town and attack the scout stronghold. "

After careful consideration, Lin Hu responded: "I obey the order. Once the matter is settled, I will immediately inform the young master."

Chen Subaru felt that no further instructions were needed, so he ended the interrogation.

Afterwards, Puyang County was calm, and Chen Subaru detected that no new scouts broke in. He seized the time to direct the construction of the fourth layer of defensive positions.

After taking care of Gui Wu for two days, Lin Yue also returned to work. Compared with Lin Hu and others facing dangerous encounters with enemy scouts, Lin Yue was more like patrolling under the protection of Chen Subaru.

On the fourth day, when Chen Subaru was inspecting the defensive position outside the military town, his spiritual consciousness noticed that a monk guarding the formation seemed to be moving. He immediately sent a message and asked: "But is there a summons from Gaoping County?"

The monks guarding the formation were unable to detect Chen Subaru, but when Chen Subaru took the initiative to contact him, the two sides established a temporary communication channel. The monk guarding the formation quickly responded: "Yes, Young Master Wenruo."

Chen Subaru responded: "I understand, you can go back."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Subaru came to the communication formation and signaled the remaining monks to activate the formation.

After the formation was activated, Gaoping County needed to be reconnected this time due to routine reports from other military towns.

After the spiritual power in the formation stabilized, Chen Subaru heard Lin Hu's slightly tired voice: "Young Master, I am Lin Hu."

Chen Subaru responded: "I'm here, how is the situation in Gaoping County?"

Lin Hu began to report: "Young Master, the number of human puppet scouts outside the military town of Gaoping County is increasing day by day. We have set up a scout stronghold thirty-five miles northeast of the military town, rely on the stronghold to build an anti-reconnaissance defense line, and request Mr. Li Zhong to send regular Cavalry patrol. However, the pressure is increasing day by day. Even if I am on the defensive line, my scouts have lost nearly twenty people in the past few days. If it were not for the support of the military cavalry, I am afraid that the human puppet scouts have broken through our anti-reconnaissance defense line.

"Today, I found a team escorting supplies in the southern monitoring area. According to your instructions, I need to meet with Mr. Chen Jiao. But after leaving, the defense line will be difficult to support. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, I took the remaining scouts under the escort of cavalry Withdraw to the military town.

After that, I found a team escorting supplies thirty miles south of the military town. As you would expect, soldiers and horses from the four military towns gathered together. But it was Master Chen Jiao who led the team.

According to Master Chen Jiao's description, the team was attacked by a powerful enemy midway. She estimated that at least fifty people from the Dan Formation Realm led less than 200 monks to carry out a sneak attack. The enemy's attack was violent and sudden, the team was traveling with a large amount of supplies, and there was a lack of coordination among soldiers and horses in multiple military towns, resulting in a slow formation. Therefore, the leaders of each military town decisively led their guards to attack the enemy, buying time for the army to form a formation at the cost of annihilating the entire army.

Before charging towards the powerful enemy, the commander of the Gaoping County Army Town handed over the command of the troops and horses to Master Chen Jiao. The subsequent formation and counterattack were all commanded by Lord Chen Jiao. After severely damaging the enemy, those puppets withdrew to the northeast. "
