There were at least 200,000 Demons who were inexplicably surrounded by the Human Allied Forces.
These 200,000 Demons originally belonged to several demon generals under the command of Demonic Sound.
These Demons had different military orders, went in different directions, and needed to complete different tasks.
At some point, they suddenly discovered that they had encountered friendly forces in their continuous detours.
It was a joyous thing to encounter a large number of friendly forces in the most dangerous place at the frontline.
However, when they encountered more and more friendly forces, the commanders of several armies of Demons realized that something was wrong.
Soon, these demon generals realized that something was wrong.
They were surrounded.
Surrounded by what?
Surrounded by humans.
They had experienced similar incidents countless times.
The reason why humans could fight them in a stalemate on the battlefield was because of their numbers.
However, after some investigation, they found out that the human army surrounding them was the same human allied forces that had broken into the Scorching Sun Valley in a tyrannical manner.
Both demon generals and cannon fodder demon captains seemed to see the end of the world.
When the difference in numbers was so great that they could be killed with a spit, the difference in individual combat power became insignificant.
Therefore, fear began to grow in the army of Demons.
However, it did not take long for the demon generals to realize what was even more terrifying.
"How … did we get into the encirclement?"
"We didn't notice at all!"
"To avoid contact with the main human forces, we kept detouring!"
"Did the Human Allied Forces notice?"
"Impossible! The movements of the human armies didn't change much! "
"Moreover, our nine armies were divided into dozens of teams. How could the humans surround us all!"
"But now, we are indeed inexplicably surrounded …"
"Therefore … there is an extremely terrifying wise man in the Human Allied Forces this time! It was him who surrounded us invisibly! "
…
In the eyes of the advisors, Elder Mu, who was smiling bitterly and bowing with his hands folded in front, was also a wise man.
How wise was he?
Almost demonic.
"Fellow Daoist Mu Zun, you're really good at concealing yourself …"
"Come and take a look. Fellow Daoist Mu is in charge of the mobilization of the five armies. These are the details of the recent mobilization that the Old Man just collected …"
"Compared to before, there's been a slight change … Hiss! It's this subtle change that we can't even detect that surrounded the 200,000 Demons? "
"This, this is too exaggerated!"
"Fellow Daoist Mu, it's not that the Old Man doesn't believe you, but … can you tell me how you did it?"
…
As long as they carefully looked through the progress of the five armies over the past month, they would be able to easily notice the subtle differences between the progress of the five armies and the previous ones.
These differences did not attract their attention at all.
What's the difference between the vanguard marching sixty thousand li a day and fifty-five thousand li a day?
What's the difference between the central army resting for an hour and walking for an hour more?
Was it worth paying attention to the movement of the entire allied army that the two road armies had made a 15-degree turn in the opposite direction?
…
There was no difference.
It's not worth it.
Because if there was really a difference, if it was really worth paying attention to, Elder Mu's dispatch would not have been approved by the advisor Ceng He and the higher-ups.
Therefore, it was obvious that the order to surround the army of 200,000 Demons was given by Elder Mu over the past month, which was different from the previous orders for the various armies.
The temporary hall was very quiet.
Everyone looked at Elder Mu, waiting for him to explain.
Not long after, even three higher-ups of the four Heavenly Gates arrived.
They did not say a word. After sitting down, they looked at Elder Mu in Silence like the other advisors.
Elder Mu could still smile bitterly in front of the advisors, but in front of these three big shots, he could only be cautious in his words and actions.
"Three Lords, and fellow colleagues, this is really a misunderstanding, and about these transfer orders …" Elder Mu pointed at the transfer orders on the long table and said seriously, "I can explain them one by one."
"Then explain," one of the higher-ups said faintly. "Of course, regardless of whether you can explain it or not, Mu Zun, you've done a good job this time!"
The army of 200,000 Demons was not a lot, but it was not a small amount either.
In the endless war between humans and Demons, this was just a small wave.
However, in this war that carried out the will of the Sword Emperor, this was indeed a major victory that dealt a heavy blow to the enemy and stimulated the great fighting spirit of the alliance army!
When Elder Mu heard that, he bowed with a Dao salute and said in shame, "Lord, I really don't deserve this credit. Sigh … Thirty-five days ago, the reason why the frontline army traveled 5,000 kilometers was just to receive a team of scouts …"
"Wait!" One of the advisors hurriedly said, "I was the one who arranged all the scouts in the alliance army. Let me take a look first!"
After a round of inspection, that person suddenly raised his head and said in shock, "It's, it's really … Fellow Daoist Mu, h-how did you know to receive this team of scouts?"
The higher-up who had spoken previously frowned slightly and asked, "What happened to this team of scouts?"
"Reporting to Lord, this team of scouts went deep to investigate important information and urgently sent a rescue order to ask for help. I had also sent elites to receive them. Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, Fellow Daoist Mu …"
Everyone looked at Elder Mu.
Elder Mu smiled bitterly and said, "I was worried that it was a trick of the Demons. In addition, I knew that the frontline army was not far from this team of scouts. Therefore, I wanted the frontline army to travel 5,000 kilometers more and force the Demons who were chasing after the scouts to retreat."
"This …" The three upper echelons looked at each other and nodded slightly. "That's clear. What about the other transfer orders? How do you explain them?"
Next, it was time for Elder Mu to perform.
No matter which slightly abnormal transfer order, he could give a reason for doing so.
These reasons were not empty words. There was evidence to check.
While he was talking, the advisor on the other side was constantly checking and verifying, and then he was constantly shocked, constantly feeling the shock again and again.
When Elder Mu finished explaining why the last transfer order was slightly abnormal, the hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
At that moment, everyone in the hall realized something.
All the slightly strange transfer orders that Elder Mu had made had actually been effectively targeted by the advisors.
However, it was obvious that these targeted orders were not only time-consuming and exhausting, but they were also often unconventional. It was easy to fall into the Demons' conspiracy.
However, Elder Mu's response not only seemed to be understated, but it also did not consume too much energy. It was even more unlikely that he would fall into the Demons' conspiracy.
Because there was no conspiracy that could accommodate the frontline army of millions, even if it was the smallest number.
Therefore, at that moment, they could conclude one thing —
Elder Mu's actions were completely oppressive. They seemed illusory and powerless, but they brought heavy pressure to the Demons, forcing them to be unable to succeed.
"Good!" One of the higher-ups suddenly said, looking quite satisfied. "Mu Zun, you've made me look at you in a new light. Although everything was unintentional, and it was not your intention to cause the Demons' army of 200,000 to be surrounded, your style of doing things is like an antelope hanging its horns, a seamless Celestial Garment …"
At this point, the three higher-ups discussed a few words through voice transmission. Then …
"From now on, all of you will listen to Mu Zun's opinion!"
When the advisors heard this, they stood up in shock and bowed in unison. "As you command, Your Excellency!"
After the three superiors left, everyone came forward to congratulate him. However, Elder Mu only smiled bitterly and said that it was unintentional.
It was not until he returned to his cave residence that the exhaustion brought about by the social interaction dissipated. Then, his slightly anxious gaze fell on a place in the endless distance.
