Not long after Hassan arrived at Stronghold 144, everyone saw the familiar wolf pack on the horizon. During the battle at Zuoyun Mount, the wolf pack tore through the barbarians' formation and looked extremely ferocious.
But when everyone saw the wolf pack now, they felt a sense of familiarity from the bottom of their hearts.
However, Big Bluff did not understand. "Why does your master know we're having trouble evacuating the refugees?"
Logically speaking, communication between the Northwest and the grasslands had already been cut off, so how did the other party know?
Hassan thought for a long time. "Although I don't really understand it either, this is what makes my master so amazing."
After Yan Liuyuan became a demigod and gained the power to control everything he said, a lot of people gradually forgot that the power he was best at was luck.
Yan Liuyuan knew time was of the essence, but he did not know how to quickly help Ren Xiaosu.
So he gave his luck to Ren Xiaosu and casually asked Hassan, "What kind of predicament do you think the Northwest Army is facing now?"
Hassan was a little afraid to answer at that time. How could he be asked about such an important matter?
Yan Liuyuan said, "Just answer me."
Hassan said, "If it's really as you said, and the enemy this time is difficult to resist, then they must be in a hurry to retreat. But with so many refugees, I'm afraid they won't be able to evacuate them all in a short time."
Yan Liuyuan nodded and ordered Hassan and the wolf pack to head to Stronghold 144 first to support the Northwest Army.
The wolves were like sheepdogs chasing the horses and cows on their way. Finally, they caught up at the most crucial moment.
The combination of luck and question and answer produced a wonderful reaction. This was a skill that Yan Liuyuan had mastered a long time ago.
At this moment, Big Bluff was overjoyed when he heard what Hassan said. Those wolves could understand humans. Furthermore, they were huge and had steady legs. Each wolf could seat two or three people.
Coupled with the cows, it was enough to evacuate the old, young, women, and children.
The originally bustling and bustling Stronghold 144 was now a little empty.
Under the leadership of the Northwest Army, the refugees quickly gathered at the city gates. At first, when everyone saw the wolves, they did not dare to approach them. Not to mention the refugees, even the soldiers of the Northwest Army were a little afraid of the wolves.
The physique of these wolves was too strong.
However, everyone soon realized that the wolves were really obedient. When people approached them, they didn't even move. They even took the initiative to lie down and let people climb onto their backs.
Even when a child pulled their hair as they climbed up, they didn't show any signs of dissatisfaction. Instead, they seemed to be used to it.
When P5092 saw this, he said to Big Bluff, "With the evacuation problem resolved, the 6th Field Division can now focus on harassing the enemy without any distractions."
Big Bluff said, "Why don't … the 6th Field Division retreat as well? In any case, the escapees at the frontlines have already been transferred to the rear."
P5092 shook his head. "That won't do. The 6th Field Division has to buy some more time for our comrades at the rear. I've seen their defense deployment plan. Based on the enemy's current advancement speed, they'll need at least another two days to stabilize the defensive line at the rear. Moreover, the escapees won't be retreating that fast. The enemy has mechanized troops, so they'll easily catch up to them. "
P5092 was a genius commander. He only needed to take a look at the defense deployment plan of his allies to know how to coordinate with them.
Zhang Jinglin had never asked them to hold off the enemy for two days. However, P5092 knew very well that this was the responsibility of the 6th Field Division.
Setting up a defense was a very complicated project. In the past, there were also various defensive lines in the Northwest. However, the problem was that the number of enemies they had in mind was not as large.
Therefore, now that they were facing a different enemy, everything had to be readjusted.
If they were to use the same strategy as in the past, they would probably suffer a great loss.
Moreover, even though the wolves and cows were carrying the escapees on their way, there were only tens of thousands of them who had any means of transportation. There were still more than a million escapees who were still on the road in the four strongholds.
The distance from Stronghold 144 to the rear of the defensive line was 481 kilometers. For normal people on foot, this was too long a journey.
If these people were caught by the enemy, it would be a disaster.
Big Bluff sighed and said, "Alright then. Be careful. Leave the matter of the escapees to me. I'll leave the harassment of the enemy to you."
"Don't worry." P5092 turned around and walked into the stronghold. There were still tens of thousands of Northwest Army soldiers waiting for him there.
After coming to the Northwest, Ren Xiaosu had fulfilled all of his promises to him. There would be no scheming, no power struggles, and no internal strife in the strongholds. They would only fight for the survival of humanity.
Even if the original Pyro Company soldiers were only going to be engineers, Ren Xiaosu would still agree to it.
Sometimes, P5092 felt that coming to the Northwest might have been the best decision he had ever made in his life.
And now, Ren Xiaosu had fulfilled all of his promises.
As such, P5092 naturally could not let him down.
The 6th Field Combat Division was destined to be a lone boat in the wilderness without any help. They would have to face the incoming tsunami alone.
However, this was not the first time P5092 had faced such a tsunami.
After returning to the military base, Black Fox had already ordered the 6th Field Combat Division to be ready to set off. Hundreds of military transport vehicles were parked there, and every soldier was in high spirits.
Although everyone was a little afraid, there was no point in being afraid.
The Knight was also standing among the troops. P5092 said to Lee Young-yoon, "Although y 'all are not responsible for fighting with us, since you've joined us, you'll have to obey our orders. That might not be very polite, but it's better to say it first. "
The Knight looked at each other and smiled. Zhang Qingxi said with a smile, "Don't worry, we know what we're doing. You can just treat us like normal soldiers."
P5092 assigned all of the Knight soldiers to a small team of 22 T5 warriors so that they could be used as an all-conquering blade at the most critical moment.
…
North of Stronghold 111. Luo Lan was frantically driving north. Along the way, he and Xu Man took turns driving the car as they traveled day and night.
The trunk of the car was filled with gasoline, which was more than enough to get them to Fortress 178.
But what they needed to worry about the most right now was not the car, but the dusk that was chasing them from behind.
Luo Lan looked back in the rearview mirror and saw dark clouds sweeping across the sky. Those were not really dark clouds, but a swarm of birds that had gathered to attack.
Luo Lan muttered, "Qing Zhen, we're still more than 200 kilometers away from the rendezvous point you mentioned. But I have a feeling … that we might not be able to hold on until then."
The roads between the Northwest and Southwest were very well maintained, but even so, it would still take more than an hour for a vehicle to travel more than 200 kilometers.
The cars could drive a little faster, but the problem was that once the speed exceeded 200 kilometers per hour, even a small pebble on the road could kill everyone.
After all, this was not a professional racing track, so maintenance was not as frequent.
Qing Zhen also looked back, but he did not seem to be panicking at all.
Zhou Qi was the first to get anxious. "Say something. We're about to die, and there's not even a fucking river nearby. I can't get away now!"
Qing Zhen said with a smile, "What's the hurry? If the person coming is really Ren Xiaosu, I have absolute confidence in him. Don't worry, he'll make it in time."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the car heard the whining sound of a steam whistle approaching from the north.
On the horizon, a steam locomotive was traveling at full speed. Ren Xiaosu did not wait at the rendezvous point but headed straight south.
