Chapter Nine Hundred and Thirteen – Response (2/2)
Mu Xi said without hesitation. “I will take care of the funds!”
Mu Xi knew that Bing Lan Daren had no family to support her. She had limited resources.
Bing Lan smiled. “No need, the Nether King will not be frugal on this. The King already thinks of this place as his and the people here as his people.”
As Bing Lan had expected, Zuo Mo was not frugal at all. Zuo Mo did not hesitate to give enormous resources to Bing Lan and green lit the way.
Bing Lan was truly the titan of the yao battle generals. No one could compare to her experience. When she became the principal of an art house, the battle general house created a great impact before it was even built.
Bing Lan Battle General House would shine with great light in the next thousand years. It would be one of the two most famous battle general houses of the yao.
The other battle general house was called Pu Pu’s Home for Battle Generals.
These two battle general houses trained countless famed generals for the yao in the next thousand years.
From every angle, Zuo Mo’s efficiency was astounding.
But for Gongsun Cha and the others, they still found it hard. It was apt to describe it as though they were passing through each day as a year. All of Kun Lun seemed to be mad as they increased their forces on the borders without regard for the cost.
In front of this vast ocean, the power of an individual battalion was insignificant.
The shadows of the crowds blackened the land like a slow and unstoppable wave. People gazed at it. A strong feeling of powerlessness filled their minds.
The vast ocean was still growing.
Mo Cloud Sea continued using guerilla warfare to slow the enemy. They had good results, but compared to the speed that the other side was gaining as time went on, the results were negligible.
Kun Lun did not seem to notice their harassment.
Increase! Continue increasing!
Gongsun Cha and the others didn’t dare to charge into the core of Kun Lun’s forces. Even though the people were untrained, they didn’t dare. If they stepped in, they might not even have a chance to escape.
The other side had gathered more than one million and two hundred thousand people!
“What do we do?”
The situation was growing worse by the day. People did not doubt that if the attack came, they could only flee for their lives.
“We retreat!” Gongsun Cha’s eyes were bloodshot. The bashful smile on his face had disappeared and was replaced with a sharp coldness. Bie Han and Yang Yuan Hao were not much better. Ever since Kun Lun’s battalions appeared on the borders, they hadn’t slept.
Retreat?
Everyone stilled.
The decision that the three top battle generals had thought of after not resting for several days and nights was to retreat?
Yang Yuan Hao explained. “We cannot stop them, if they break through our defensive line, then their morale will grow and while ours would worsen. Rather than letting that happen, we should retreat of our own accord.”
People started to think.
Gongsun Cha explained. “Kun Lun’s army is so large that supplies will be a problem. We will retreat and give up the space, but scorch the earth, stain the other’s supply line. On one hand, we can blunt their morale, and the other is that their supply lines will be exposed.”
The people present were all experts in war. Their eyes lit up and they started a heated discussion.
“We will destroy all the transportation formations, every one, force them to go through the jie rivers! Hmmph! One million pigs, even those won’t be easy to transport!”
“Every source of water, every mine, destroyed. So they cannot resume production quickly and produce supplies.”
“We need to move every person. Leave an empty jie, we will leave them empty jies!”
“We need to leave behind guide points, but make them hidden. We can leave more, and use them to build small transportation formations. They don’t have to transport many people. This way, we can easily attack their supply lines from the back.”
“Martial law, Mo Cloud Sea must be under martial law! It is important for everyone to be controlled to prevent some people from making a nuisance.”
When there were many people gathered, the power was great. As people started to discuss, many details were fleshed out. They could not underestimate the details. Advantages in battle were accumulated through these details.
Gongsun Cha couldn’t help but sigh. While the expansion of the past few years had lowered the unity of Mo Cloud Sea, it had won strategically for Mo Cloud Sea now. If Mo Cloud Sea was as small as before, no matter how strong its defenses were, it couldn’t hold against such an ocean of people.
“This is the final battle!” Gongsun Cha suddenly said. Everyone else closed their mouths and looked at him.
“If this battle is won, then we will win. Lose, we have nothing.” Gongsun Cha’s gaze burned and his tone was harsh. “Final battle! This is the final battle!”
“Kill them!” Everyone roared in response, their eyes filling with blood and murderousness!
Translator Ramblings: It’s going to be so weird in three days time when I don’t have to get up and posta chapter. On the other hand, if I somehow disappear in the meantime, WanderingGummiOfDoom can post the remaining chapters.
