"No." P5092 denied, "As the Young Marshal, why would you risk your life by yourself at a time like this?"
"But isn't this the most suitable thing for me to do?" Ren Xiaosu chuckled and said, "Wang Yun, how long will the food supply at our defensive position last?"
Wang Yun said, "If we don't control it, it should be enough to last for 10 days. I thought the Wang Clan would continue to transport supplies over, so I did not control it. But I didn't expect the expeditionary army to act so quickly. The Wang Clan's supplies can't even be transported in anymore. If we reduce the amount allocated, it should be enough to last for another 15 days. After all, war consumes a lot of stamina, so we can't reduce it too much. "
Ren Xiaosu asked P5092, "How long do you think this defensive battle will last?"
P5092 thought for a moment and said, "Maybe about 20 days."
"So even if the others go and harass the expeditionary army's supply troops, they won't be able to bring the supplies back. But if I go, it'll be killing two birds with one stone. Not only can I harass them, but I can also solve the supply problem at the defensive position."
"But the defensive position needs you more." P5092 said, "If you're not around and those heavy-armored warriors suddenly appear, what are we going to do about the defensive position? It's not the time for our troops to use the incendiary bombs yet. We have to wait until the expeditionary army is more aggressive before we can use them. "
P5092 had previously said that if the expeditionary army's heavy-armored warriors were used as a trump card by the enemy and sent into the battlefield in one go, he would give them a surprise.
And this so-called surprise was the incendiary bombs brought by the 6th Combat Brigade. No matter how amazing the defenses of the heavy armored warriors were, they could not possibly be fireproof.
Therefore, in P5092's plan, although there would definitely be sporadic barbarians coming to break through the defensive position in the early stages, this trump card had to be kept for use at the most critical moment. If they could severely injure the enemy's heavy-armored troops in one go, it would be a great victory for them!
Before that, the experts who suddenly appeared would have to be dealt with by Ren Xiaosu.
If a high-end combatant like Ren Xiaosu was not in the defensive position, they might very well be forced to use the incendiary bombs in advance.
At this moment, Yang Xiaojin suddenly stood up. "I can take care of these scattered expeditionary army experts. As long as there are less than a hundred of them, I'm confident that they won't be able to set foot on the defensive position. All I need is for Ji Zi'ang to carve out a sniping point on the mountain behind the defensive position. "
The back of the defensive position was against a dangerous mountain. If they could carve a sniping point on the mountain, Yang Xiaojin's safety would not be a concern.
Ren Xiaosu asked, "Are you confident?"
Yang Xiaojin said casually, "I've seen the heavy armor they're wearing. Ordinary armor-piercing bullets are enough to deal with them. One shot and they'll die without a doubt. Moreover, if they weren't wearing heavy armor and moved extremely fast, it wouldn't have been easy for me to hit them. There would have been a chance of missing. Now, I'm 100% confident. "
Ren Xiaosu understood what Yang Xiaojin meant. Heavy armor was indeed very effective against normal firearms. But if they were equipped with an unmarked sniper rifle and armor-piercing bullets, it would be foolish for the enemy to make themselves bulky.
P5092 hesitated for a moment. "This lady's marksmanship …"
Ren Xiaosu chuckled and said, "Oh, she was the one who taught me how to use a gun, so there's no need to worry about that."
"But the 6th Combat Brigade did not bring many sniper bullets with them." P5092 said, "There aren't any particularly good snipers in the 6th Combat Brigade, so the bullets they brought —"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Yang Xiaojin materialize her unmarked sniper rifle. Yang Xiaojin said, "There's no need for bullets."
"How about this?" P5092 thought for a moment and said, "It'll take two days for Ji Zi'ang to clear the tunnel. Let's see if Miss Xiaojin is up to the task tomorrow."
"No problem," Yang Xiaojin said.
At this moment, everyone was performing their duties. Everyone was doing what they could for the victory of this battle.
Thinking of this, no one seemed to know that they might die here. Everyone felt an inexplicable sense of excitement.
Wang Yun smiled and said, "I'm sorry. I'm used to being held back by my teammates in the Kong Clan. I even have to be wary of people plotting against me when I'm carrying out a mission. I'm still a little unused to suddenly joining such a united organization."
Ji Zi'ang nodded. "I feel the same as Wang Yun."
Wang Run watched all of this quietly from the side. He did not say anything because he did not have a sense of belonging to the Northwest Army. In this Zuoyun Mount, he was still an outsider and was not truly trusted.
However, as an intelligence agent, he could also understand Wang Yun's feelings. Wang Yun was an intelligence agent of the Kong Clan, Ji Zi'ang was an intelligence agent of the Zhou Clan, and he was from the Wang Clan.
Intelligence work was just like what Wang Yun had said. They had to be careful of their backs at all times.
Everyone started moving. That night, when the expeditionary army retreated for a short while, Ji Zi'ang and Ling opened up a tunnel from their defensive position and extended it out of the mountain in a zigzag manner.
Moreover, when Ji Zi'ang was digging the tunnel with his superpower, he did not even make a sound that would alert the expeditionary army on the surface. This was truly a covert operation.
Ren Xiaosu sized up the dark tunnel and said, "Speaking of which, this tunnel should only be used once or twice, right? If I go out once or twice, this place will be discovered by the expeditionary army."
"It's fine. We just need to harass them once." P5092 said, "Your mission is to make the expeditionary army so frightened that they think there are other troops out there in the wilderness. That way, they won't be able to do anything they want."
"By the way, you mentioned that Ji Zi'ang is keeping the seven mountains that he can disintegrate as a trump card. When do you plan to use them?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"Six of them will be used to destroy the expeditionary army's most difficult main force," P5092 explained. With that, he pointed out the six mountains to Ren Xiaosu. They stood like sharp swords on Zuoyun Mount as though they were defending their defensive position.
Ren Xiaosu suddenly wondered, "Aren't there only six of them? Where's the last one?"
P5092 said, "I'm only using the last one because I have no other choice. I hope I'll never have to use it."
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. He suddenly looked at the mountain behind him. The defensive position was also built on this mountain.
P5092 nodded and said, "That's the one. If we can't hold on for much longer one day, I'll order Ji Zi'ang to disintegrate this mountain as well. After that, we'll be buried here along with the expeditionary army."
P5092's tone was very calm when he spoke. He did not have the imposing aura of wanting to perish together with the enemy like Ren Xiaosu had imagined. However, his words made Ren Xiaosu understand that the other party was prepared to die.
It was no wonder P5092 said to Ji Zi'ang that anyone could die except for Ji Zi'ang. So it turned out that Ji Zi'ang was the final grenade of glory for the entire 6th Combat Brigade.
Ren Xiaosu smiled. "Don't worry, I won't let you all die."
