Gao Wu: Starting from Awakening the Bloodline of the Demon King
Chapter 143
Su An finally accepted Xu Pingfeng's apology and did not plan to pursue anything further.
Not long after the meeting between the two ended, an armed helicopter and two armed transport planes landed outside Wumeng Town.
Chief of Staff Zhang arrived with two confidential secretaries and a hundred soldiers-level guards.
Su An, Zhang Yuying, Zheng Nanzhi, Xu Pingfeng, Xu Chengzhi and others came to greet him outside the town.
To Su An's expectation, the chief of staff from the Dusi Division was very polite, did not put on any official airs, and did not hide his appreciation for him in his speech.
"The situation is urgent, let's stop talking."
While walking into the town, Chief of Staff Zhang got straight to the point, "I came here under the order of the frontline commander, Commander Guo, to guard Wumeng Town with you.
"Sect Master Su, the demon reinforcements may come back at any time. I need your people to cooperate and set up defenses together with the soldiers I brought, especially setting up sentries outside the city."
Su An admired Chief of Staff Zhang's resolute attitude and nodded immediately in agreement.
Although the extraordinary people of Anxia Sect and Nanyan Sect were in a state of healing and resting, they did not forget to arrange sentries. Chen Xingyun took people to the northwest hills early.
If there are demon reinforcements or extraordinary combat power to counterattack the town, Su An will be able to get the news as they approach and respond in time.
After listening to Su An's explanation of his arrangement, Chief of Staff Zhang nodded repeatedly in approval: "Sect Master Su is cautious and thoughtful. No wonder he was able to regain Wumeng Town."
"It should be." Su An called Zhang Yunjun over and asked him to take Chief of Staff Zhang's people to set up defenses.
Just as everyone entered the town, two more armed transport planes arrived in Wumeng Town. Those who came down were also elite soldiers, and the number was similar to that brought by Staff Officer Zhang.
"The actions of the third brigade are not slow at all." Upon hearing the movement, Chief of Staff Zhang turned back to observe for a moment, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
It was the vanguard of Dusi's third brigade that came.
With the arrival of about two hundred soldiers, Wumeng Town's defense strength suddenly became sufficient. At least there was no need to worry about ordinary demons and extraordinary warriors coming back.
After hearing that Chief of Staff Zhang had arrived, the officers of the Third Brigade hurriedly chased into the town, reported their operational tasks to the former, and asked the other party if they had any instructions.
"This is the Anxia Sect Master Su. Your people will cooperate with them in deploying defenses." Facing his own family members, Chief of Staff Zhang appeared to be very official and spoke calmly and forcefully.
The people in the third brigade still didn't know Guo Huaian's attitude towards Su An. At this moment, when they heard Chief of Staff Zhang's words, they couldn't help but look at Su An. They had a good idea of how to get along with the other person.
The soldiers from the front division and the brigade at the back came so quickly and in so many numbers, followed by the third brigade that was about to arrive. This simply overturned Su An's inherent impression of Du Si:
Aren't these guys supposed to be like Xu Chengzhi and Xu Pingfeng, who have poor military discipline and weak combat power, and only know how to share military merit and compete for power?
Why did he suddenly become elite?
Before this, Su An had always felt that Du Si was able to dominate various cities and places entirely because social sects and extraordinary people among the people constantly went to the land of chaos to perform tasks and fight against demons.
But the scene in front of him made Su An realize that although Dusi was corrupt, he still looked like a regular army and was not without merit.
After entering the town and sitting down at the headquarters of the previous demon army, Staff Officer Zhang said a few words and asked everyone to leave, leaving only Su An talking in the room.
"Sect Master Su, as I said before, the situation is urgent and we won't make any detours.
"When I come here, in addition to sitting on the front line and commanding the army to rebuild the defense line, I also have to complete an important mission assigned by Commander Guo, which requires your cooperation."
Chief of Staff Zhang said sternly, "Commander Guo and I both want to know how Sect Master Su, with only a three-star sect, was able to annihilate a reinforced regiment of demon troops in one day and capture the opponent's heavily fortified fortress town. Successfully regained lost ground?
"Sect Leader Su must tell the story in detail."
Su An fell into deep thought and did not answer immediately. During this period, he glanced at Chief of Staff Zhang several times.
Chief of Staff Zhang seemed to be sure that Su An had concerns, and gave encouragement with a gentle smile:
"Mr. Guo is an upright person, and he can't rub sand in his eyes. He has been suspended from work to recuperate. Tonight, the emergency officer is reinstated and takes over the frontline command. It can be said that he has been ordered at a critical moment.
"Senior Commander Guo said before I came that it is Sect Master Su's military merit, and no one can take away a single point."
What he said was simple, but it contained a lot of information. Su An needed to figure it out on his own. It was extremely obvious that he was able to speak to this extent, and his intention to make a point was undisguised.
In fact, Chief of Staff Zhang had no intention of getting so close to Su An on the way here.
Although he had received Guo Huai'an's order, it was enough for him to handle official business, and there was no need to give such an obvious reminder when Su An hesitated.
But when he arrived in Wumeng Town, he saw the strength of the soldiers of the Anxia Sect and realized the attitude of the two seventh-level sect masters Zhang Yuying and Zheng Nanzhi towards Su An. Chief of Staff Zhang realized that Su An was not a simple person, and the Anxia Sect also Not an ordinary sect.
Such Su An and An Xia Zong are worthy of friendship and are qualified to let him release his goodwill.
So Chief of Staff Zhang decided to go along with the situation and sell Su An a favor and help her gently.
"Thank you Chief of Staff Zhang and Commander Guo for your care." Su An thanked him first, and then began to tell the details of the battle.
His brief period of silence just now was actually out of temptation.
Since meeting with Chief of Staff Zhang, the other party has been very friendly and getting more and more friendly. With this foundation, Su An can try to find out more information from Chief of Staff Zhang.
If the other party keeps a cold face the whole time and doesn't like him, then he won't be able to test anything at all, and there's no need to waste his efforts.
What Su An wanted to test was not the attitude of the senior officials towards him or his military exploits. That was completely unnecessary.
Because he had already solved this problem before Staff Zhang came.
What Su An wants to know is Dusi's internal information.
He wanted to understand why Dusi's performance was so bad before, but suddenly changed tonight. With the elite qualities of resolute and orderly actions that Dusi showed tonight, he should not have been defeated so miserably before.
The answer to this question is important.
It is related to the subsequent development of this war and affects the Anxia Sect's decision-making to advance or retreat.
If Du Si can maintain his appearance tonight, then the battle will be smoother and smoother in the future, and Su An can lead An Xia Sect to continue participating in the war and seek more military glory;
If this appearance cannot be maintained, then Su An will never dare to fight side by side with the selfish Dusi army who always flees from battle for a long time, and will withdraw immediately whenever there is an opportunity.
No matter what, pig teammates are more terrifying than powerful enemies.
Chief of Staff Zhang's answer gave Su An an answer.
The key lies in one person.
Chief of Staff Zhang and the officers of the Third Brigade have been talking about this man. Their thunderous operation tonight was all because of this man's order.
Mr. Guo.
A person who was previously suspended from duty was reinstated tonight and was appointed to take over frontline command power in times of crisis.
The answer is obvious.
It was precisely because of the arrival of the other party that Dusi's appearance suddenly changed. Not only did his actions become swift and powerful, but even the spirit of the officers changed.
It can be seen from this that this person is very unusual, he is simply a fairy-like existence!
Su An reasonably speculated: This commander who was urgently appointed by Du Si has extraordinary abilities and great prestige. As long as he is still there, Du Si will not be the coward he was before, and An Xia Zong can continue to participate in the war!
Of course, this is just preliminary speculation.
Su An will then further inquire about the other party's information from Chief of Staff Zhang and Wang Zhe, and find out the other party's history, performance, reputation, etc.
"I see."
After listening to Su An's account of the war, Chief of Staff Zhang suddenly realized, "Master Guo and I have always found it strange how a three-star sect could capture Wumeng Town.
"Now that Sect Master Su has said this, everything makes sense.
"You have a combat power that is not weaker than that of the four-star sect, and you took advantage of the other party's division of troops to eat two of the opponent's battalions. Finally, you pretended to be defeated soldiers and tricked you into the town, so that the fortress attributes of Wumeng Town were not fully utilized. Nanyan Zong's strategy of internal cooperation and external cooperation was a stroke of genius.
"Strength, resourcefulness, and luck are all combined. No wonder he was able to accomplish such extraordinary feats."
At the end, Chief of Staff Zhang sincerely sighed: "Sure enough, extraordinary achievements must be accomplished at extraordinary times and by extraordinary people!"
After speaking, Chief of Staff Zhang suddenly fell silent.
He keenly discovered a problem.
What about Sword of Dawn?
The location of Wumeng Town is so important, why did the Sword of Dawn never appear? There are so many masters of the Sword of Dawn that there is no way they can't take care of Wumeng Town, and as long as they show up, there is no chance that the Anxia Sect will not be completely annihilated!
But he didn't see the other party's shadow the whole time.
This is so abnormal!
what is the problem?
......
The wilderness under the sea of bright stars stretched as far as the eye could see, and a group of black-clothed strong men with swords on their backs were walking quietly in the clear light.
They looked quite embarrassed, many of them were supporting each other, and there were faint traces of blood on their robes.
Compared to the stumbling steps of everyone, the old man and the young man at the head were walking steadily, but the gray-haired old man kept holding his belly, and the girl with twin ponytails was always frowning.
"Nangong Buqi and Song Jiao, these two guys came out of nowhere. I have never heard of their deeds before. They are obviously little-known people, but they are so powerful!"
The girl sighed arrogantly, "The information sent back from the Yan Kingdom did not mention these two people. Are they not the official extraordinary beings of Jizhou City?"
The pale-faced old man in black robe was silent for a moment, "The world is huge, and there are countless strange people and strangers. Not all the land in the east of Lingdong is controlled by the Yan Kingdom, and other forces should not be underestimated."
The girl tilted her head and looked at the old man: "Black tide? Church? Rebels? Dark network? But why do they help Dusi fight, and why do they have to fight against us? Isn't this good for them?"
The old man in black robe was speechless for a long time.
At the end of the day, he slowly raised his head, with a vicissitudes of life and deep eyes: "Everything in the world is for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.
"But there are always some people who are not driven by profit."
He seemed to have thought of something, a look of reminiscence appeared in his eyes, and along with the wave of memories came an indescribable sense of awe.
"If it's not for profit, is it for ideals and righteousness?" The girl's eyes were slightly bright, as bright as stars.
The old man said nothing more.
The girl had already thought of a certain past event that was sealed in the dust of history, as well as some heroes who were deliberately hidden under the wheel of history, and she was speechless for a while.
......
hills.
Nangong, who was in ragged clothes, with a bruised nose and swollen face, stood stubbornly in the wind, as if his whole body was not covered with wounds of all sizes. He stood as straight as a thousand-year-old pine.
He looked at the endless front and looked at the endless wilderness, like the backbone of the world that stood firm against the sky and the earth. He was a hero who would rather break than bend. His momentum was as unrivaled as the abyss, as if he could hold up even if the sky fell.
"Your wound still retains the demonic force and cannot heal on its own. If you don't sit down and adjust your breathing, the blood will drain out."
With the snow-white sword standing at her side, the red-haired woman sitting cross-legged on the ground and vomiting suddenly spoke, her voice as cold as a spring in a mountain stream, and her eyes as calm as an ancient well without waves.
"Oh!"
Nangong Buqi, who was immersed in his own unparalleled splendor and couldn't extricate himself, responded with a half-hearted response, ran down from the top of the mountain and meditated near Song Jiao.
After holding it in for a long time, Nangong Buju said with excitement and undiminished interest:
"Senior Sister, we defeated the Holy Envoy and drove back the Sword of Dawn this time. It is considered a great achievement, right? Why don't we publicize it when we go back so that everyone knows our heroic deeds? What if we can get Master to write a book for us? Hey, isn't that a manifestation of holiness in front of people?
"Sister..."
"To shut up!"
"Oh."
Not long after the meeting between the two ended, an armed helicopter and two armed transport planes landed outside Wumeng Town.
Chief of Staff Zhang arrived with two confidential secretaries and a hundred soldiers-level guards.
Su An, Zhang Yuying, Zheng Nanzhi, Xu Pingfeng, Xu Chengzhi and others came to greet him outside the town.
