Book of Disaster

Bai Qi just smiled and didn't care.

"Okay, I'll leave this place to you. I should go back now."

"General Zhao, we'll see you later."

As Bai Qi spoke, he released a tremendous amount of internal energy, lifting everyone up. Then his body shook, and with a loud bang, he instantly soared into the sky, turning into a flash of lightning and heading towards the main base of the North Sea Divine Guards.

The matter in Wuchao Territory has been resolved, and it’s time to go back now.

Flying all the way across the vast ocean, following the route he came from, Bai Qi was as fast as lightning and quickly returned to the center of the Divine Guard fortress at the speed of thunder.

"The Major General is back!"

"The Major General is back!"

……

At that moment, the soldiers of the Divine Guard who were on patrol and training saw the young man appear in the sky. Their faces were filled with joy and they couldn't help cheering.

Apparently, the news that the Four Symbols Water-Controlling and Demon-Subduing Formation in Wuchao Domain had been repaired had spread throughout the entire fortress.

Bai Qi flew down from the sky, nodded to everyone, and quickly set his eyes on the burly figure behind the God Guards. That was his grandfather, Bai Xuanlao.

Before Bai Qi appeared, Bai Xuan Lao had already sensed his presence from afar, and opened the tent of the main camp early, looking at Bai Qi flying in the air, his eyes full of satisfaction. He thought Bai Qi was just talking casually, but he didn't expect that he really did it. For a moment, his heart was full of pride.

"Qier, you really did it!"

Bai Xuan was very pleased.

Bai Qi heard this and smiled:

"Fortunately, I live up to my fate!"

"Hahaha……"

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

After greeting the surrounding God Guards, the two quickly walked into the main tent behind them. Also entering the main tent was a familiar face, Lin Hai.

Lin Hai is mainly responsible for the handover, escort and transportation of various military supplies, including but not limited to food, and of course... also the exchange of intelligence.

Sitting on the sandalwood stool in front of the brazier filled with charcoal, Bai Qi quickly told Bai Xuanlao and Lin Hai everything that had happened in the Wuchao Region.

——But Bai Qi thought about it and finally concealed the fact that Zhao Hanyan lied about military intelligence.

"As expected of a Major General, you have solved the problem of our Divine Guards so quickly!"

Lin Hai said sincerely, his eyes full of admiration.

Everything else was secondary. Bai Qi repaired the Four Symbols Demon-Subduing and Water-Controlling Formation, which really solved the urgent problem of the North Sea Divine Guards.

You know, before, both the old marshal and other generals tried their best, but they still couldn't get the point and had no solution.

I didn’t expect that the problem was solved so easily after only being here for a few days.

Before taking action, who would dare to believe it?

At this moment, on the other side, after hearing Bai Qi's words, Old Bai Xuan fell into silence.

"According to you, the place you found is just a temporary base of the Weiyinghai Clan for storing supplies. They must have a forward base near the front line, from which they command and organize the attack on us?"

"Yes."

Bai Qi nodded.

This was the conclusion he came to on his way back to the main base.

He thought about the situation of the North Sea Divine Guard for a long time.

What happened in the Wuchao area is just a small matter that has nothing to do with the overall situation. Bai Qi always feels that the Weiying sea people have a command base somewhere else.

Their recent frequent attacks are all related to this.

And finding the person in charge of commanding the advance is basically the most important thing next.

"Although that temporary base has everything, it doesn't have as much supplies as one might imagine, and its defenses are weaker than one might imagine. It can't be their real base."

"Moreover, they have been carrying out so many operations recently, but each time there have been very few casualties. It would be impossible without a command center, so this is the reason for the speculation."

"And what I'm going to say next is the most important."

Bai Qi said this and looked at his grandfather with a much more serious expression.

Elder Bai Xuan nodded and motioned for him to continue.

Bai Qi immediately turned to look at Lin Hai and asked:

"General Lin, you have fought many battles with the Weiying Sea Clan and have a lot of experience. Have you noticed any pattern in their daily attacks?"

Lin Hai was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Bai Qi to suddenly ask him this.

But he soon came to his senses, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"The whereabouts of the Weiying Sea Clan are erratic, coming and going like the wind. It is difficult for us to follow them, and we haven't noticed anything special for the time being, but--"

Lin Hai paused here and continued:

"I have fought against the Weiying Sea Clan quite a few times, so I can be considered to be quite experienced."

"But no matter which battle it was, they were like slippery loaches. But recently, something seemed to be different. Whenever I wanted to mobilize the army in the rear to launch a strong counterattack, they seemed to have received some signal and fled in time."

"The Major General should have experienced this when he came here on Captain Zhao's merchant ship."

"This is the daily life of our North Sea Divine Guards."

Lin Hai sighed.

After all, the Weiying Sea Clan are the natives who were born and raised here. Their numbers far exceed those of the North Sea Divine Guards. Moreover, once they return to the deep sea, they will be like fish in water and their strength will increase greatly.

Under such special circumstances, the North Sea Divine Guards could only passively defend and dared not pursue further.

This is also a helpless move.

On the other side, Bai Qi was listening, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

This is guerrilla warfare!

Sea Clan?

Guerrilla warfare?

For some reason, Bai Qi felt something strange in his heart.

"General Lin, were they like this before? Did they fight in this way?"

Bai Qi asked.

"That's not true."

The person who spoke was not Lin Hai, but Bai Qi's grandfather Bai Xuanlao:

"The fighting style of these Weiyinghai people has changed significantly recently, as if they have changed people and opponents. I wonder if it is the influence of the revival of the two gods?"

"Oh."

Bai Qi seemed to be thinking about something, but he didn't think deeply about it.

Guerrilla warfare usually uses attack as the main means, and has a high degree of initiative and freedom, flexibility and versatility. Its main tactics are to harass the enemy when they are stationed, attack the enemy when they are tired, retreat when the enemy advances, and pursue the enemy when they retreat.

This was not the first time Bai Qi encountered guerrilla warfare. When the Dayu Kingdom and the Yuan Dynasty were fighting on the southwestern border, the Purple Lightning General Pei Yuankui used this tactic to harass the Yuan Dynasty troops that came to support them.

But no matter what, one thing is certain, in this kind of high-intensity, high-execution guerrilla warfare, they can always get out of the battle in time - there must be a strong commander in the rear to coordinate.

But it only took a moment for Bai Qi to come back to his senses.

"With such high levels of organization and discipline, and being able to escape from battle in time every time, it is definitely not just luck. It would be impossible if there was no unified command center in the rear."
