130: I didn't know you were warriors.
When a chain of malicious suspicion forms, whoever strikes first gains the initiative.
Under Tang Gao's command, over five thousand new students began to advance in an orderly fashion, divided into different groups according to their functions: assault team, defense team, patrol team, logistics team, and so on.
Li Nezha couldn't help but look at Tang Gao with new respect, surprised that this kid actually knew how to apply a Military System. He certainly had some skill.
Tang Gao immediately brought out the Black Soul Dominator, a profession he hadn't used in a long time, and reinforced all accumulated layers into perception.
In a short while, Tang Gao had already detected the warriors ambushed on both sides of the river ten kilometers away.
"Alright, alright, so this is how you want to play, huh?"
"Then I'll give you something intense!"
...
An Advanced command ship floated in mid-air, using a Spell to conceal its form, with several other spaceships hovering around it for protection.
On the command console of the command ship, Liu Town was smiling as he watched the new students on the ground.
"Among this cohort, this Tang Gao really has something. He made the most correct choice decisively and possesses certain command experience. He's a promising talent."
"Indeed, no wonder this kid received the Hidden Fox General title. Besides his strength, his abilities are also quite impressive."
Several commanders stood together, chatting and laughing.
Liu Town asked curiously, "By the way, what about the Yao Race new students? Did they not participate?"
"To answer you, General, they did participate, but they used a certain disguise Spell. They were afraid Tang Gao would take the opportunity to bully them."
Liu Town was exasperated, "How could our great nation have such a small mind? Tell them we won't intentionally exclude them.
If the advantages of our Human Race could be learned by a few Yao Race brats, that would be too ridiculous."
The adjutant shrugged, "You are indeed magnanimous, but Tang Gao... that kid has a bit of strong nationalism. His current perspective and vision are a bit lacking.
You know how young people are."
Liu Town smacked his lips, "That's true, and it's normal. Let them be, just don't intentionally put them in the hospital again. Otherwise, it would sound bad if it got out, saying that our Xia Kingdom people rely on their Genius status to bully them."
The adjutant laughed so hard he choked, "So, were you not the one cheering the loudest that day?"
That day, when Tang Gao beat up the Yao Race new students, Liu Town cheered the most, only regretting that it wasn't him on the stage beating the Yao Race.
Liu Town chuckled, "Ah, how can that be confused? Since we have already demonstrated our Xia Kingdom's Divine Might, naturally we must also demonstrate our Xia Kingdom's demeanor.
Alright, are our warriors ambushed and ready?
When you act later, be careful not to let them only target the Yao Race new students. At least distribute it evenly to achieve the goal of training."
The adjutant burst into laughter, shaking his hands as he sent messages to the people below.
One moment it was about the demeanor of a great nation, the next it was about whether the ambush was ready.
It certainly had a grand demeanor; it was about to scare those new students to Death Qi.
"It's all arranged, General."
Liu Town nodded in satisfaction, "After all, it's training. Come, let me see how these new recruits are and if they are suitable for the battlefield."
The adjutant and commanders nodded in agreement.
After Liu Town finished speaking, he suddenly added, "Oh, right, send a fourth-Realm Cultivator to fight Tang Gao. Let's see what decisions that kid will make."
The adjutant was stunned, "That harsh? Sending a fourth-Realm Cultivator?"
Liu Town clicked his tongue, "The War Emperor has weakened. Among these new students, there might be a batch of future commanders. If we don't give them something intense, how can we see if they can withstand the test?
This is the future of our Northern Military System."
The adjutant felt his scalp tingle and used his smart wristband to relay the order to the people below, "Then, what if Tang Gao chooses to sacrifice the new students to protect himself?"
Liu Town's eyes dimmed slightly, and he said regretfully, "There is no right or wrong in war..."
But such a person is definitely not suitable to be a commander.
Because the source of this simulation project was the Great Migration of the past.
...
Ten kilometers. The large group traveled for over two hours, finally completing the grueling mountain path and arriving at the river.
Hot tip: There are many mosquitoes in the wild. Unless one has entered the second Realm, mosquitoes can get close and have a buffet.
Many new students came from affluent families and had never experienced such hardship. Many cried while walking these ten kilometers.
Some girls cried until their eyes were red from mosquito bites, and their fair arms and legs were covered in small red bumps.
At home, they were their parents' darlings and had never suffered such grievances.
Tang Gao could only have some Cultivators with relatively strong magical Qi cast Spells to repel mosquitoes and have the healing-type Cultivators help with treatment.
Tang Gao couldn't help but sigh, "Our Spell system is already so complete, yet the process is still a bit much for the new generation to bear. How did those old Seniors endure it back then?"
Heatstroke, allergic reactions to mosquito bites, blisters from walking, those with poor physical fitness almost being sent away, and so on.
This journey was full of bumps and scrapes. If it weren't for everyone having learned some Spells and being able to consult the intelligent network for solutions, the team's situation would probably be worse than it is now.
Liu Ren shrugged, "I don't know, but they must have been tough men. We definitely aren't... With so much homework and martial arts practice every day, how many have time to train for long-distance travel?"
Tang Gao nodded, "Makes sense. Let's pause and rest for a bit. Call the assault team over."
It couldn't blindly be said that people nowadays were more delicate; rather, the environment and upbringing were different.
Liu Ren immediately ran to announce the break, while Liu Yi was responsible for notifying the representatives of the assault team to come over.
Soon, the representatives of the assault team ran over.
It was none other than the fiery-tempered and exceptionally self-reliant Xu Ling'er.
This fierce woman, with her fist the size of a sandbag—no, with her Dao the size of a sandbag—became the captain of the assault team.
Tang Gao took out a map and gestured, "Later, you will throw all Talismanic Incantations, explosives, or certain long-range Spells into this area for a saturation strike."
Xu Ling'er had a question mark floating above her head, "Bomb here? Why? Are you afraid there are wild animals or Yao Beasts on both sides of the river?"
Tang Gao chuckled, "Don't worry about why. Just execute the order. Remember, the flatter you blast it, the safer we will be when crossing the river."
Xu Ling'er giggled, "I had people check before. There are quite a few fish in this river. This will probably be the most intense baiting these fish have ever experienced in their lives."
Tang Gao also laughed, "Indeed, go execute it quickly."
"Mission accomplished!"
After Xu Ling'er gave her orders, she happily wiggled her little backside to execute them.
Li Nezha floated over slowly like a ghost, sitting on a lotus Spell seat, "I say, did you know about this all along?"
Tang Gao calmly closed the map, "Know what? I'm just ensuring the safety of the main force crossing the river."
Li Nezha looked at him as if he were an idiot, "Do you think I'm stupid? Shouldn't crossing the river involve building a bridge or a raft? Who starts with a bombardment?"
Tang Gao chuckled, "Teacher, are you afraid I'll hurt someone? Don't worry, if someone is unfortunately and coincidentally near the river and gets injured by the blast, I will personally go and apologize."
Li Nezha rolled his eyes wildly. Those people are currently disguised as Demonic Path Cultivators. Will you really go apologize?
He's probably going to kick them while they're down.
He's truly a wolf in sheep's clothing.
