Chapter 108 Prelude

Chapter 108 Prelude
The one who ran back was a reconnaissance team sent by Deng Yonghui. There were four or five people. When they came back, they were already lying on the ground out of breath. to exhale.

Liang Zhangxu quickly asked someone to help them up, pulled them to the side and sat on a wooden chair to rest. Although he was panting heavily after a strenuous exercise, it was not appropriate to sit down and rest immediately, but the situation was urgent at the moment and he could not care about so much. .

Even though the investigators sat down, they were still panting non-stop, making Liang Zhangxu a little anxious who wanted to know the specific situation, but it was not good to ask them right away, so they could only wait for them to rest until they could speak.

Seeing this, Deng Yonghui at the side took out a bottle of stamina potion from his pocket, put it in someone's hand, and motioned him to drink it.

"How's the situation? Where are those goblins now?" Liang Zhangxu asked immediately after the investigator drank the potion.

After the investigator drank the potion, he took a few more breaths. The cold potion liquid flowed down his throat. The cold feeling also spread to the four muscles and eight meridians in his body, allowing him to regain a lot of strength. .

"No. [-] Forest Passage, that's where I saw the goblins. They marched through that forest path. After we saw it, we rushed back from the hiding place immediately." The investigators said intermittently.

Deng Yonghui frowned. When he arranged for each reconnaissance team to set out to monitor the movement, he also marked the roads in the woods around the base with code names. These roads can lead to the location of the base. The task of each reconnaissance team is to monitor movements on their respective roads.

The No. [-] forest passage is the most spacious road among them. There are not many obstacles on the road. The goblins marching from there must have absolute confidence in their team, and they acted swaggeringly without hiding anything.

"How many of them are there, and how many big goblins are there? Have you seen it clearly?" Liang Zhangxu asked with a serious expression.

The investigator was stunned for a moment, his eyes seemed to be thinking about something, and finally shook his head: "I don't know, we ran away after seeing the goblins, and we didn't see many goblins at all, we only knew that there were a lot of them. "

As if to verify that his words were correct, the investigator also gestured with his hands to form a large circle. It seemed that this would allow Liang Zhangxu and Deng Yonghui to visually see how many goblins there were.

Two people:.
Then they asked other members of the investigation team, and everyone answered that they didn't know. They all said that there were a lot of them, but they didn't know how many there were.

After asking several times, the two of them also had to give up this plan. After thinking about it, they were just an amateur scouting team. Calm down and count the number of goblin troops.

"Okay, it's not hard for you guys, take a good rest here, there will be a fierce battle waiting for us later."

Deng Yonghui walked to the wall of the car beside him, looked into the distance, and heaved a sigh of relief when he found that there was no sign of Goblin yet.

The investigators' yelling with all their strength had already called back all the workers who had set up defense facilities outside the car wall. Everyone thought that the goblins were about to invade, and hurried back to the car wall, and some even People even dropped the tools they were holding.

They did not hide the fact that there would be goblins attacking the base, because the operation and mission arrangements of various departments made it impossible to conceal this matter.

The only thing that was concealed was the final plan discussed by the three of them yesterday, that is, in this defensive battle, the strength of the enemy is likely to far exceed their imagination.

If even the managers don't have the confidence to defend the base, then the people below will only lose confidence and lower morale in vain.

Deng Yonghui called a combatant and whispered a few words, and the combatant hurried back to the shopping building not far away.

"Yonghui, do you have any plans?" Liang Zhangxu walked up to him and asked.

"Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, what else can we plan?" Deng Yonghui sighed, "Actually, like those scouting teams, I have no similar experience. Why not? For commanding operations, you should not have too much hope in me."

"Do your best. After all, the opponent is just a goblin. It's better than fighting with humans from another world and training your commanding skills." Liang Zhangxu patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.

"I informed the other reconnaissance teams to come back. The goblin's marching speed should not be fast. This team has rushed back with all their might, and it should have opened a long distance from the goblin army, enough for us to defend ahead of time. "Deng Yonghui said lightly.

"Go back quickly. The people in the base still need your comfort. The next defensive battle is my home field. Although I am not sure, I will not disappoint your expectations."

"Don't be brave. If you can't beat them, just overturn the table and leave. These cars should be full of gasoline. When the time comes, blow them up together, and they should be able to hold them back. Take this opportunity and run away together."

Deng Yonghui didn't answer, but just pulled out one of the two long swords hanging from his waist. The long sword engraved with blood-red patterns shone reddishly under the sun, as if he had been waiting to drink blood to quench his thirst.

He waved his long sword as if he was doing some warm-up exercises before the battle, practicing his sword-wielding skills so that he would not be hesitant or unfamiliar when cutting off the Goblin's head in the next battle.

"I can escape. With my current highest strength in the base, it is really not a problem to escape in times of chaos." Deng Yonghui murmured, "But is it worth it?"

"A commander, in the first battle he commanded, was so defeated that even he, the commander, ran away, and ended up being unable to defend a single front. He didn't care about the subordinates who trusted him, and only cared about himself. Is it worth it to run away and still lose at the hands of monsters like Goblins?"

Liang Zhangxu was silent. He stared at Deng Yonghui's face for a long time, and gave his own answer, "For a commander, this is a failure that he will never forget in his life, so it is not worth it."

"But for my friend, your life is more important than anything else. I would choose to persuade you to say 'keep the green hills alive without worrying about firewood', so it's worth it."

He patted Deng Yonghui on the shoulder, put his arms around his neck, and put it on his shoulders, just like the "good buddies" they used to do when they were in school.

"How to choose is up to you to choose. As a friend, I can only advise you."

Deng Yonghui did not respond, but impatiently put away Liang Zhangxu's hand. He seemed to think that such an action was too "gay" and took a few steps away to distance himself from Liang Zhangxu.

"Okay, it's time for you to go back, the next thing is my job." Deng Yonghui said lightly.

At this time, both of them saw the fighters from the base rushing over from the shopping building, although from here, the fighters who ran over didn't look like a group at all, they were in a mess like a mess.

But they were still as imposing as before, with no trace of fear on their faces, wearing armor and helmets, and holding their weapons tightly in their hands. They were already prepared for this defensive battle, and they came without a trace of hesitation after Deng Yonghui arranged for someone to go back to announce No, they will never stop if they don't get the blood of goblins.

"I wish you a prosperous martial arts."

Liang Zhangxu said his farewell with a light smile, turned around and walked towards the base, smiled with the combatants who passed by, and walked in the opposite direction to their respective responsible places.

The combatants ran behind the car wall, and they didn't need Deng Yonghui's instructions. They stood in the empty seats, those who could use bows and arrows picked up bows and arrows, and those who couldn't use bows and arrows picked up spears to guard behind the car wall, waiting for Gobu Lin rushed over and struck out a spear that pierced through his body.

Deng Yonghui also stood on the roof of the car, watching the distance and waiting for the passage of time.

It didn't take long for him to see the reconnaissance team running back. They all ran back panting with all their strength, climbed over the wall of the car with the help of others, sat down to rest, and immediately recovered some strength. Step into the defensive position to fill the void.

Time passed little by little, and the wind blew stronger. Deng Yonghui's hair, which had not been cut for a long time, was a little long, and it was also blown by the wind.

A group of gray-green things gradually appeared in the distance, and as they approached gradually, they could be seen as hideous goblins, wearing simple armor, with disgusting toothy smiles on their faces.

The wind was blowing, and from time to time a gray cloud appeared in the distant sky, moving towards the base like a blanket, with cold and wet rain mixed in, and the faint flashes of lightning and thunder could be seen.

"Attention everyone, prepare to fight!"

Deng Yonghui yelled out orders sharply.
