Chapter 1024 The Great Battle is Imminent

With the passage of time, the frequency of the dimensional space gates on the border of Tasan Country gradually decreased.

The border entered a phase of peaceful defense. Both sides were at peace, each clearing out the Arrow Mountain Tribe and destroying the dimensional spaces. Everything was developing in a positive direction.

On the night of the second day, Jiang Xiao finally received the order from Er Wei. With the support of the follow-up troops, Jiang Xiao successfully completed the task of guarding Tasan and was able to return to the team.

There was no farewell ceremony, and no one knew of Jiang Xiao's departure.

He silently retrieved his Star Pet, rode his Pegasus, wrapped in Hidden Dragon, and flickered away, without disturbing anyone.

Doing good deeds without leaving a name!

Eh... wait, it seems he already announced his name when he first appeared.

Well, never mind the details...

When Jiang Xiao returned to the defense line guarded by the Wei Yu squad, he was immediately overjoyed!

It seemed that the Tasan area was the most severely affected area, while the border between Dajiang Province, Longgan Province, and the Great Mongolian Empire was relatively stable!

Looking out, a river of blood flowed, and the corpses of the Arrow Mountain Tribe were scattered everywhere.

The scene was extremely tragic, but depending on one's perspective, such a scene was excellent for soldiers like Jiang Xiao guarding the border!

There were also very few dimensional space gates. Jiang Xiao stood on the hilltop, looking into the distance. By his count, there were only a little over 20.

But the unfortunate thing was that there was a feeling of "distinct separation."

On the Hua Xia side, there were indeed very few dimensional space gates, but on the other side of the border, there were quite a few dimensional spaces. A large number of Arrow Mountain Tribe members were still emerging from them, causing trouble everywhere. Any who entered Hua Xia territory were immediately dealt with clearly by a row of Star Ocean mages.

However, the Hua Xia soldiers did not help those who did not enter Hua Xia territory.

Anything involving two countries was not a simple matter. Sometimes, it was not a question of whether you were willing to help, but that you could not take the liberty of helping.

As Jiang Xiao was observing, another Night Watch Army squad emerged from a dimensional space gate. Undoubtedly, they had destroyed another Holy Ruin!

It seemed that a lot had happened in the two days that Jiang Xiao was away.

Was this crisis finally coming to an end!?

Jiang Xiao looked around with joy, but he did not find his Wei Yu team members, nor did he see any other Wei Yu Brigade teams.

Jiang Xiao shouted to a somewhat familiar officer, "Where are my team members?"

The middle-aged officer looked exhausted, his eyes filled with bloodshot. It seemed that he, like Jiang Xiao, had been fighting continuously for two days and three nights.

"Report! They are all in the dimensional space. The Wei Yu team is..." The middle-aged officer looked at the few space gates, pointed to the one closest to the border at the foot of the distant mountain, and said, "The Wei Yu team is in there."

This was a true general! This was a responsible leader!

You must seek to govern in your position! If you don't know anything when asked, what the hell are you doing?

Jiang Xiao said, "Which dimensional space is empty?"

This time, the middle-aged officer did not reprimand Jiang Xiao as he did at their first meeting. He answered without hesitation, "They all have people."

"Mm." Jiang Xiao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Which dimensional space did the soldiers enter most recently?"

The middle-aged man pointed to a dimensional space gate on the east side: "About 1 hour ago, two Night Watch Army teams entered here."

"Very good!" As a Guang Zhu, Jiang Xiao inherently possessed the "inspector" attribute. The middle-aged officer's answers were fluent, showing that he was extremely responsible!

Jiang Xiao said, "Two days and three nights, you must be tired?"

The middle-aged officer did not discriminate by age and stood at attention: "Report! Not tired!"

"Mm." Jiang Xiao nodded and said, "I'll take 5 seconds of your time. Stand at attention!"

The officer was slightly surprised, but he subconsciously stood at attention again.

Why stand at attention? Wasn't his posture standard enough?

Jiang Xiao ordered, "Sit down!"

The middle-aged officer subconsciously took a step back with his left leg, placed it behind his right foot, and sat down cross-legged.

Looking at the officer's extremely exhausted appearance and his bloodshot eyes, Jiang Xiao raised his hand and cast a Blessing.

The officer gritted his teeth: "Ugh..."

When he came back to his senses, he found that Jiang Xiao had disappeared. The soldiers beside him said that Commander Jiu Wei had already rushed into the space gate on the east side.

The officer rubbed his head. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, the slowly increasing stamina and the continuous vitality were rapidly healing his body.

But this was only a temporary solution. The light of Blessing could greatly increase his vitality, but it could not restore his energy. Mental fatigue could not be alleviated.

......

Jiang Xiao on Earth was making the final efforts to resolve this crisis.

And the squad on the alien planet had now assembled.

After two days of travel, the army finally marched into Ye Gu Pagoda. Due to Jiang Tu and He Chongyang's early arrival and arrangements with the Ying Sun brothers for the handover, things progressed relatively smoothly.

Under the supervision of He Chongyang, the Ghost Monk Clan, the Soul Warrior Clan, the Dancer Clan, and the rather naughty 28 Paper Ink Book Souls all settled in Ye Gu Pagoda.

Originally, there were 72 Paper Ink Book Souls, but 4 were lost along the way...

Zhang Songfu decisively drove the remaining 68 Paper Ink Book Souls into his Sea Ridge Sanctuary to avoid non-combat attrition. Then, along the way, Zhang Songfu, Jiang Xun, the Blind Woman, and He Yun held a meeting to express their inner thoughts.

Paper Ink Book Souls were naturally playful, and most could even be called "naughty." In addition, due to their special way of existing as ghosts, it was difficult to stop them, so... they would still run away.

These little guys were not soldier material!

After discussion, they left behind 28 who were relatively calm and good at management, and Zhang Songfu and others released most of the remaining Paper Ink Book Souls.

The three kimchi prisoners could control 72 Paper Ink Book Souls because they were ruthless! Especially Yin Yingzhen, who was extremely ruthless!

Of course, kindness does not win battles. Any general should be strict with his subordinates.

But Yin Yingzhen's "ruthlessness" was not strictness, but viciousness and ruthlessness.

She relied entirely on sinister and vicious punishment measures to prevent this group of naughty Paper Ink Book Souls from daring to act rashly and unable to release their nature.

Zhang Songfu and others could also do this, but after everyone's discussion, especially after the Blind Woman's suggestion, the squad released most of the Paper Ink Book Souls, leaving only 28 who were relatively obedient.

It was worth mentioning that one of them was the "little traitor" who reported the news.

That little Book Soul was not taken into Zhang Songfu's space, but had been accompanying Jiang Xun on the march, and would occasionally pop out to startle Jiang Xun...

...

At night, in the council hall in the southern city gate area of Ye Gu Pagoda.

A group of people sat around a huge stone conference table, discussing fiercely.

Especially Ying Sun·Li Haoge and Zhang Songfu, their exchanges were quite intense.

Li Haoge was not only Ying Sun, but also the city lord of Ye Gu Pagoda, and his perspective on issues was naturally different from others.

Seeing that the two sides' words were becoming more and more intense, Jiang Xun suddenly said, "Buddha, I think you should stay here."

"Ah!?" Zhang Songfu was a little dazed, "Me? Stay here?"

"Yes." Jiang Xun nodded and said, "I don't plan to lead a large number of soldiers on this trip to the peninsula. We all have Calamity Shadow Ruins, so hiding a hundred elite soldiers is enough. On the one hand, He and I are medical support, so we can take care of them. On the other hand, the creatures on the peninsula are not very strong in combat.

Perhaps their stage level is not low, but they are taking the path of confusing people. I think what I need is not a large army, but a highly mobile elite force."

"Can." He Yun suddenly said, "If we hide an elite force in the space, we can land on the peninsula by sea, instead of going around on land and entering the peninsula from Liaodong Province."

Zhang Songfu frowned slightly. From the perspective of time cost alone, this was indeed the right thing to do.

If they used a large army, it would take a lot of time for this army to go from Sanjin Province, through Great Mongolia, and into Liaodong.

Building ships and taking the sea route with a large army was even more inadvisable.

Land creatures at least had some regionality. If one or two monsters came from the sea, this group of landlubbers would not be able to escape complete annihilation.

Jiang Xun continued, "You can help the Ying Sun brothers settle the army and stabilize the order in the army. If possible, you can try to conquer the surrounding Star Beast forces. You don't necessarily have to eliminate them.

Bring back those gentle Auspicious Beast Clan and Double Night Mandarin Clan, just keep them. As for the Star Cave Clan, kill them if you should, and try to expand the sphere of influence of Ye Gu Pagoda in preparation for subsequent battles."

Jiang Xun paused and continued, "Once our experiment on the peninsula is successful, then our tasks will become more arduous. If you three can make a good start and lay a solid foundation for our conquests, that would be excellent."

Li Haoge suddenly said, "Commander Jiang, our logistics supply must keep up. Taking from the enemy is a method, but it's not a long-term solution. Can I apply to keep these 700-odd Jade Face Dancers for logistics?"

Jiang Xun: "......"

Even if the Ghost Face Monks were obedient, they were not suitable for farming.

The Yin Yang Soul Warriors could also farm, but as soldiers, they could better demonstrate their value on the battlefield.

And the White Face Dancer Clan were naturally gentle and kind, and did not want to fight.

They could shatter the Yin Yang Soul Warriors with a few notes blown at random!

But the Soul Warrior Clan still existed to this day! And there were so many of them because the White Face Dancers did not like to fight.

Especially in the alien planet, these White Face Dancers were more intelligent.

For the Dancers, as long as the Soul Warrior Clan were honest and didn't go around provoking them, they wouldn't kill the Soul Warriors.

The special jade structure of the Yin Yang Soul Warriors caused them to be unable to stand up straight in front of the Dancers, but on other battlefields, the Yin Yang Soul Warriors were a great weapon!

Switching back and forth between Yin Souls and Yang Souls, plus the impact of Yin and the defense of Yang, who were the Soul Warriors afraid of?

It was no exaggeration to say that the Soul Warriors of Ludong Province were not afraid of anyone as long as they left their homes!

Jiang Xun pondered for a long time and said, "Okay, we don't have to go against nature. Since the characteristics of the Dancers are like this, let them live a stable life, which can be considered a good deed on our part.

I brought a lot of seeds, but they are all in the Birch Forest. I'll go get the seeds next spring. As for now, you can only take from the enemy. So many more people have suddenly been added, and they need to eat.

By the way, clean up the Star Beasts in Zhongyuan Province. Dimensional spaces are opening extremely frequently on Earth now. Whether it's useful to clean them up or not, the alien planet and Earth will eventually merge. Cleaning them up now will be somewhat beneficial to human society."

"Okay!" Li Haoge nodded and asked, "Commander Jiang, how many people are you going to take on the peninsula mission?"

Jiang Xun thought for a while and said, "100 people are enough. Ghost Monk Clan: 10 each of Gold, Silver, Grass, and Cloth, 50 Yin Yang Soul Warriors, 8 Paper Ink Book Souls, White Face Dancers... I'll pick 2 or 3. Their flute music is very functional, so let's take a few with us."

Saying that, Jiang Xun looked at the people at the table and said, "Haoge. Zhang Songfu and Yue Yuchen will stay here to assist you. I'll take Old He, San Wei, and Little Chongyang on a trip to the peninsula!"

Although it was said to be a four-person squad, it wasn't really four people.

Because there were two Jiang Xiaos in the team, one was the medical Jiang Xun, and the other was the agile battle Jiang Tu.

Most importantly, there was also a powerful weapon in the team: HUA Xing·Baze!

Old Man He became uncharacteristically excited, obviously, he had more personal emotions mixed in with this mission: "Yes! Let's go! When are we leaving? Little Jiang, I'm getting old, and every day is one less."

He Yun found Jiang Xiao, took him to the alien planet, and traveled north and south with him. He originally wanted to use his remaining years to train a disciple or something, but he didn't expect that he would still have such an opportunity.

If he could really take this trip, it would be worth it!
