270: Chapter 270 The Empty City Stratagem?

Meanwhile, in North Africa!

Thanks to General Max's efforts, the number of tribes in North Africa has been reduced from eighteen to fourteen!

And in this process, bloodshed was inevitable!

After this matter, no one in North Africa failed to recognize General Max...

They only now realized that this elder from Pretty Country was not incapable of wielding a blade anymore... but rather, he chose not to wield it!

Yet, the resulting damage was even more exaggerated!

Soon...

General Max immediately gathered the fourteen tribal chiefs of North Africa and led the army south!

On the road, a massive force of over ten thousand people set out!

They had already received news earlier that the Council of Elders in South Africa had not agreed to defend that land and had already led their people away...

This meant their opportunity would only be greater!

"Hahaha...! I didn't expect those southern rats to have actually fled back. I thought I would have a chance to display my great martial prowess!"

"It seems that opportunity is gone!"

"Heh heh... You're so mighty, why don't you go and take care of all those people in South Africa?"

"The resources there are quite rich. Just selling the illicit oil alone would allow you to live like a Middle East prince..."

"I... You actually compare me and South Africa to the Sam Tribe? You certainly think highly of me..."

"But if we can't take down South Africa, can't we take down a neutral territory?"

"That piece of land is purely a delicacy laid out on our plates!"

"..."

Everyone discussed animatedly, chatting and laughing along the way.

Regarding the attack on the tribe where Lin Heng was located, none of the leading figures had any psychological burden.

They all believed that a force of ten thousand men could never fail to capture a small tribe like theirs!

What's more, they had already heard that the location where Lin Heng was situated only had a garrison of five hundred people...!

And they had a full ten thousand people here!

Even just drowning the enemy with the saliva of one person each would suffice!

How could they possibly fail to capture it??

Those people were simply fat, succulent lambs!

They just needed to think about how to divide the land later!

The crowd talked and laughed, and soon they entered the vicinity of Lin Heng's location.

However, General Max ordered his subordinates to halt their advance.

"Why did we stop?"

The crowd was still chatting and laughing, even discussing how to divide the land later.

According to their thinking, once they arrived at that place, it would be a complete rout, and they wouldn't even need to take action themselves...

But now, seeing the army suddenly stop advancing, they were momentarily confused.

At this moment, they did not know that General Max was feeling a headache coming on.

Meanwhile, ahead of the procession...

After General Max saw no signs of defense ahead, his suspicious nature quickly surfaced. He frowned, looking at the flat land before him, where he could even see the large oil field in the distance with a single glance, making him even more puzzled.

Lin Heng's cunning and ruthlessness went without saying; he had already witnessed it during the tripartite talks.

Yet, things were so abnormal now...

Logically speaking, Lin Heng shouldn't have underestimated them so lightly. Even without support from reserve troops, he should have presented a posture of being fully prepared, but now everything looked so desolate...

Were these people completely unprepared... Or did they plan to give up from the very beginning?

"General... Why did you order the subordinates to stop?"

Colonel James frowned deeply upon seeing the situation.

He spoke to inquire.

General Max was truly an old fox on the battlefield. Although their side far surpassed Lin Heng's troops in terms of military equipment and numbers,

he still felt that something was not quite right!

Where exactly was the discrepancy...

This made General Max unable to figure anything out.

The more this happened, the more worried he became that there was a trap.

Given Lin Heng's intelligence, and the fact that he hadn't abandoned defending this land, he naturally wouldn't let them charge forward so easily...

No matter how one looked at it, Lin Heng was in a losing situation; at that point, one truly couldn't fathom what chance Lin Heng had of winning!

"Just why is that..."

Just then, a few young Black men sweeping the ground quickly appeared among the vanguard tribesmen.

The other party appeared unhurried, even glancing up at the position where General Max and the others were located, as well as the surging masses of troops behind them, yet they showed absolutely no reaction.

Completely calm!

Upon seeing this situation, General Max's troops were quickly stunned.

What the heck??

Are these people insane?

Why are they so calm... Are they not afraid of death??

For a moment, everyone found it hard to comprehend.

Now they finally understood why General Max hesitated to advance.

Or perhaps they... were also deeply shocked at this moment.

It would be a miracle if they suddenly charged forward!

Meanwhile, unknown to General Max's men,

those few young Black men sweeping and dancing outside were actually trembling with fear.

"Oh my god! There must be ten thousand people here, right?!"

"Can we really handle them??"

"I don't know... But it's best you keep quiet. Did you forget what the Strategist told us?"

"If you don't want to die, listen to the Strategist!"

"Sigh... So why did we have to take on this thankless task? I shouldn't have come..."

"Any one of them with a single bullet could turn us into sieves..."

"Hurry up and shut up! Didn't you say you wanted three Black Girls after the mission was over? Did you forget?"

"Three isn't enough! I want ten!"

"..."

They continued sweeping while dancing, looking extremely cheerful...

Meanwhile, General Max's side was plunged into a storm of doubt.

"Damn it... What trick are these guys playing?"

Colonel James was uncertain and quickly gritted his teeth.

"Forget what trick they are playing!"

"Direct carpet bombing with artillery shells!!"

"I refuse to believe they aren't carbon-based life forms!"

A chilling voice was heard, immediately causing a shiver among those nearby.

The speaker was none other than General Max.

The others, upon hearing these words, subconsciously licked their dry lips.

It truly was General Max!

Otherwise, they probably wouldn't have the means to do this...

"Gentlemen Chiefs... It's time to bring out all your ammunition. After this battle, we all need to divide the land. You can't possibly contribute no effort, right?"

Oh my god...

The crowd had wanted to slack off for a while, but they were jolted by the next order.

This bastard...
