Less than 20 li away from Galloping Horse City, there was a huge barracks. This barracks wasn't originally this big, but it was obvious that it was recently expanded. This barracks can accommodate 500,000 troops. Compared to the empty barracks in the city, this barracks was bustling with activity. Inside the barracks, one could see teams of fully armored soldiers patrolling back and forth. The entire barracks was filled with an austere atmosphere.
At this time, Wen Wenhai and the others were standing on top of a Hundred Beast Warship. They had used a total of 4500 Hundred Beast Warships for this expedition to Malaysia. At this time, besides Zhao Hai's Ghost King Warship, all the other warships were gathered here, surrounding the barracks.
At this time, all the soldiers in the barracks were standing guard. However, when they looked at the Hundred Beast Warships, their eyes were filled with despair.
These soldiers weren't fools, they were very clear that they weren't a match for Zhao Hai. If possible, they really wanted to take off their armor and go home.
But it was obvious that this was impossible. Now that the barracks was under the control of experts, if they dared to run, then they would only be waiting for death. Therefore, they didn't dare to run, they couldn't run, they could only wait.
Wen Wenhai looked at the barracks and smiled faintly, "Interesting, the preparations are good. Unfortunately, this barracks was recently expanded. I'm afraid that there's no place for the things in the barracks to be stored. Go and ask around, if there's anyone who found the rations in the barracks." A person immediately went to pass the order. Before long, someone reported that they found the rations in the barracks. The rations in the barracks were at the back of the barracks. There were some caves on the mountain, the rations in the barracks should be in those caves.
Wen Wenhai immediately commanded his warship to turn towards the mountain. Before long, he could see the caves behind the barracks. These caves were actually part of the barracks. The barracks itself was built along the mountain. Outside the barracks was a river that allowed the barracks to fetch water. Wen Wenhai's warship immediately turned towards the mountain. It didn't take long before he saw the caves. These caves were located behind the barracks.
Wen Wenhai looked at the caves and thought for a moment, then he said, "Pass the order, attack the caves with all your strength. After taking down the caves, immediately set them on fire. Make sure to burn all the rations, but remember, you must be quick, don't cause too many casualties. Also, use the shadow cannons to change the course of the river outside the barracks. I want to see how long they can last without food and water." The person behind him immediately went to pass the order.
Don't look at how Wen Wenhai was following Zhao Hai like a messenger. In fact, Wen Wenhai and the others had high status in the Lost Soul Empire. They also had their own subordinates, their own messengers. It's just that they didn't use them in normal times.
Following Wen Wenhai's order, the Hundred Beast Warships immediately moved. A thousand of them left the fleet and flew towards the river outside the barracks. They were going to change the course of the river. As for the remaining warships, some of them stayed outside the barracks while the others went straight towards the caves.
Before the people in the barracks could react, they suddenly launched an attack on the caves. The defenders in the caves were killed in the shortest time possible. Then the Hundred Beast Warships flew towards the entrance of the caves. Then the people on the warships immediately used several fire element formations. Fire dragons directly rushed into the caves, causing the caves to be filled with thick smoke.
When Wen Wenhai saw this situation, he couldn't help but smile and nod. Then with a wave of his hand, all the warships that were attacking the caves retreated.
However, they didn't withdraw, they were still outside the barracks. At this time, the barracks were in chaos. All the soldiers in the barracks knew that their provisions were inside the caves. Now that they saw the smoke coming out of the caves, they knew that their provisions were gone. This caused the morale of the soldiers in the barracks to be in chaos.
Before long, the people who went to cut off the river came back. They had already changed the course of the river, so there would be no more water in the barracks. When Wen Wenhai heard this, he couldn't help but smile faintly and said, "Good, good, very good. Leave a thousand warships here. Pay attention, if the experts in the barracks want to run, make sure to stop them. If the ordinary soldiers want to run, make sure to stop them as well. Right, leave the warships outside the barracks and use earth element formations to dig ditches. This way, the ordinary soldiers won't be able to pass through. Hahaha, I didn't think that His Majesty's old method would be used to deal with these enemies."
When everyone heard Wen Wenhai, they couldn't help but laugh. Of course, the people on the warships knew about the battle between Zhao Hai and the Sacred Court. At that time, Zhao Hai rarely attacked the Sacred Court's troops. Instead, he used all kinds of methods to make the Sacred Court's troops tired. Then he would make his move. Cutting off water, cutting off food, digging ditches, changing the course of the river, Zhao Hai had used all kinds of methods in the past. Therefore, Wen Wenhai was able to say that.
After everyone laughed for a while, Wen Wenhai led most of the Hundred Beast Warships back to Galloping Horse City. Only a thousand warships were left in the barracks. Naturally, the Broken River Experts weren't left behind.
At this time, Zhao Hai was sitting in the Great Hall, holding the Golden Book in his hand. Although the Golden Book was now placed on the Ghost King Ship by Zhao Hai, the Golden Book was still his artifact. He can take it back at any time.
Zhao Hai was currently writing something on the Golden Book. Zhao Hai knew a lot of things, so although he wrote a lot of things on the Golden Book, compared to what he knew, it was still a lot less. Therefore, Zhao Hai was currently writing something on the Golden Book.
Seeing Wen Wenhai come back, Zhao Hai put down his pen and looked at Wen Wenhai with a smile, "Wenhai, you're back. What's the situation?"
Wen Wenhai cupped his fist to Zhao Hai and said, "Boss, everything is done. Their food has been burned. I also cut off their water supply. Right now, I only left a thousand Beast Battleships to guard the camp. Right, I also ordered them to dig a ditch outside the camp to prevent the people inside from escaping." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Good.
When Zhao Hai heard Wen Wenhai, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Good, good. I didn't expect your arrangements to be this good. Right, let's do it this way. I want to see how long they can last. Wenhai, you take the other warships and occupy all of the Ma Empire's cities in the shortest time possible. Make sure that all of their barracks are occupied." Wen Wenhai nodded and said, "Good.
Wen Wenhai nodded, then he turned around and left. He didn't think that Zhao Hai would let him lead the army this time. However, he was still very happy.
Of course, Zhao Hai can lead the army himself. However, he also felt that it was a bit boring. It would be better to let Wen Wenhai lead the army in battle. This was also a good opportunity for Wen Wenhai and the others to learn how to command in battle. In the future, Zhao Hai would have to do everything himself.
Wen Wenhai and the others returned to the city and rested for a while before they left. The country of Ma wasn't small, and it also had a lot of barracks. If the people in the barracks didn't surrender, then they would have to take them down one by one. This wasn't an easy task.
Wen Wenhai and the others left, but the people who stayed behind didn't stay idle. Some of the soldiers in the city directly went to the barracks in the Imperial Palace and set up a transmission formation. Then all kinds of supplies were sent to Galloping Horse City.
On the other hand, the barracks outside the city had completely changed. Although Wen Wenhai's attack didn't kill a lot of people, when the soldiers saw that their food was burned and the water level in the river quickly decreased, they became even more panicked. Then they saw the large ships emitting yellow light. When the yellow light hit the ground, deep trenches immediately appeared in their barracks. Before long, the trenches surrounded the barracks.
Upon seeing this situation, the barracks were in complete chaos. Even if the experts wanted to suppress the situation, they couldn't. The soldiers weren't fools, they knew what this meant. This meant that the enemy didn't need to kill them. It wouldn't be long before they starved to death.
The Ma experts didn't think that Zhao Hai would use this method. They thought that their plan was a success. Whether Zhao Hai attacked them or not, they would still fail. But now that Zhao Hai used this method, they knew that they were finished. Whether they wanted to leave or not, they wouldn't be able to. But now that Zhao Hai used this method, they knew that they were finished.
Although they can kill the people in the barracks to establish their prestige, the situation in the barracks was very bad. If they dared to kill the people in the barracks, then the people in the barracks would certainly go all out against them. If they do it themselves, then even if the people in the barracks just stood there and let them kill, they wouldn't be able to kill all of them.
Moreover, one shouldn't forget that Zhao Hai's fleet was still outside the barracks. If they dared to cause trouble in the barracks, then those people would immediately come in. When the time comes, they could only wait for their deaths.
At this time, these people were somewhat regretful. When the Ma Empire's River Breaking Experts came back to the Ant Kingdom to persuade them to surrender, they laughed at them for having no backbone. At worst, they would just die. But these people didn't die in battle, instead, they surrendered. This was too shameful.
But now, they finally understood how true the saying 'death is the only way to survive' was. They had said it before, at worst, they would just die. But when it really came down to it, they really hesitated. They didn't want to die, and they obviously didn't have to die. But now, they had to die. Naturally, they were even more unwilling.
At this point, the experts in the barracks couldn't advance or retreat. If they advance, they would have to go all out against Zhao Hai and the others. But when they looked at the more than a thousand battleships outside, they felt that they weren't going all out, they were just sending themselves to their deaths. But now, the barracks were surrounded by more than a thousand battleships. If they want to leave, they would have to kill their way out. Because of this, they really couldn't advance or retreat.
