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

On his way back to the military town of Puyang County, Chen Subaru informed Chen Jiao through a message transmission of the number and approximate cultivation levels of the coming puppets. According to Chen Jiao's deployment, Lin Yue and Gui Wu, who had just recovered from his injuries, led 200 monks to the third line of defense to take charge of defense work.

After Chen Subaru returned to the military town, he exchanged military information with Chen Jiao, and then began to meditate to restore the spiritual power he had previously consumed. During the battle with Qianhu, who was half-stepped into becoming a god, Chen Subaru's consumption was far beyond what he saw on the outside. Using the Yin and Yang Law of Tianbing Sword Domain for the first time, he could not accurately grasp the optimal distance between the gates of Yin and Yang, which resulted in opening many more gates, thus consuming a large amount of spiritual energy in the air sea. After the thousand households were wiped out by his sword, 80% of the spiritual energy in the air sea had been consumed.

On the way back, Chen Subaru looked unhappy for two reasons: first, the situation was unclear, and second, he discovered a flaw in his Qi Hai. He had not noticed this flaw before because he had never encountered such a huge consumption. It turns out that the bigger his Qi sea is, the faster he recovers. If the consumption is within 10% in a short period of time, the Qi Sea will be able to recover on its own without deliberately replenishing it; if the consumption is within 30%, it can be replenished in a short time by absorbing the residual spiritual energy of the fighting method; if the consumption exceeds 50%, he must stop and absorb the spiritual energy of the surrounding world. Only then can the deficit be made up quickly. However, when the consumption exceeds 70%, the automatic recovery of spiritual energy in the Qi Sea will stop, and he must make up for 50% of the spiritual energy before he can recover.

It was the discovery of this flaw that made Chen Subaru feel uneasy on the road. He originally thought that he had suffered internal injuries, which caused the Qi Sea spiritual power to be unable to recover automatically. This change made him feel very uncomfortable. After all, this feature greatly facilitated his combat.

Chen Subaru originally planned to ask the doctor to check his spirit body, but then he thought about it. The war was imminent. If there were rumors that the highest combat power was injured, it would not be good for the morale of the military town.

So, he found a secluded corner in the military town to meditate, intending to replenish the energy of the sea of ​​qi to perfection first. When the spiritual energy returned to 50%, the feeling of spiritual energy growing automatically in the sea of ​​​​qi came back. This change made Chen Subaru's mood immediately improve, and he thought to himself that in future battles, unless it was a last-ditch situation, he must not allow the Qihai spiritual energy to be consumed too much. The laws of yin and yang in the Sky Ice Sword Domain need to be practiced more to reduce the consumption of spiritual power.

After his mood improved, Chen Subaru's mind became active. Now that the spiritual energy could be restored automatically, he did not need to absorb the spiritual energy with all his strength. He planned to use his spiritual consciousness to observe whether the defense deployed by Chen Jiao could withstand the surprise attack of thousands of puppets. This enemy attack may be an opportunity to test Chen Jiao's tactical command. Through this attack and defense, we can also find out the deficiencies of the defense and further improve the defense system. At least, when Chen Subaru himself goes out as a surprise soldier to assist Gaoping County, Chen Jiao must be able to hold back a large number of puppet troops while ensuring that the Puyang County military town will not fall.

Lin Yue and Gui Wu joined hands and led the military town monks to quickly enter the position and set up defenses. Although these formations have automatic defense functions, there is a huge difference between the effects of manned and unmanaged formations.

If you only guard against sneak attacks by Xiaoxiao, the formation's automatic defense can eliminate enemy scouts in a short period of time, which is more than enough. However, once faced with a strong person with advanced cultivation or a large-scale invasion, automatic defense will appear to be a single tactic. The enemy's flexible tactics will not only increase the consumption of spiritual stones, but also make it easier to find flaws in the chain formation to break through the defense.

When Chen Subaru's spiritual consciousness penetrated the defense line, Lin Yue and Gui Wu had already led the monks to prepare. They were undaunted in the face of challenges and determined to defend the military town at their best.

Chen Subaru did not take the initiative to contact Lin Yue and others. In addition to covering the entire defense line, his consciousness also extended hundreds of miles in the direction of the puppet army. He saw two Nascent Soul Realm puppets leading a thousand men and horses attacking towards the military town. Every place where an ambush could be set up along the way was attacked by them.

Chen Subaru felt that the reason why they were so cautious might be because the two leading Baihus lost contact with Qianhu and the other eight Baihus, but they also received military orders from Qianhu not to attack Puyang County Military Town. According to the previous scout information, they have almost figured out the distribution of troops in the military town of Puyang County. These thousand soldiers and horses, led by two Yuanying realm monks, have an absolute advantage. If they retreat directly, these two hundred households There may be severe punishment.

As for the disappearance of Qianhu and eight Baihu, they did not have the opportunity to pass the news back to the army before their deaths. Therefore, the two Baihu who led the team could not judge whether these people were alive or dead. Whether they were ambushed or temporarily picked up by others. The orders are also unknown.

The two hundred households could only attack as cautiously as possible based on the intelligence they had received previously.

Chen Subaru took into account the caution of the puppet army, so when he arranged the trap area outside the third line of defense, he deliberately avoided the routes where the puppet army was most likely to directly attack.

If it is an attack of a thousand people, in order to prevent being ambushed and divided and surrounded, they will inevitably shrink their troops and eliminate all hidden dangers on the offensive route, and storm the military town defense line in the most reliable way.

If there are thousands of people, and the enemy's strength far exceeds that of the army's defenders, there is no need to be so cautious in their attacks. Thousands of people march in groups. If there is any powerful attack array set up in the army town, such a large group of people It is also worth spending resources on military towns to launch long-range attacks. Therefore, an attack of thousands of people will naturally disperse the troops, and Chen Subaru has set up many traps on the marching route on the flanks. Most of these traps will not be triggered immediately, but will lock on these people when they pass by the traps. When they launched an attack on the outer defense line of the military town, they attacked the puppet army from behind.

Unsurprisingly, this army of thousands of puppets attacked along the route planned by Chen Subaru and advanced to the outer defense line. It wasted a lot of spirit stones and attack materials, blew up a lot of rocks and woods along the way, and leveled everything along the way. The building, however, did not detect an ambush nor trigger any traps.

The two hundred households looked extremely ugly. They only camped and faced off outside the outer defense line for one day, and then they couldn't wait to launch a crazy attack.

Judging from the comparison of strength, the attackers were led by two burly Nascent Soul Realm puppets, leading an army of thousands of puppets that were almost the same as ordinary human monks. The defenders were led by two weak women and had only 200 monks under their command, including monks in the psychic realm, the concentration realm and the gas gathering realm. There was a huge gap in strength between the two sides.

The two men of Baihu had a hundred personal guards at the Dan Formation Realm. They did not take the two hundred defenders in front of them, who looked like old, weak and remnant soldiers, seriously. In their eyes, this battle seems to have been won.
