Watching this group of demon elites go away, a burst of cheers broke out from the Zuofeng Army, but Zhao Mengdi did not relax his vigilance and gave an order in a cold voice.
"The Zuofeng Army heard the order and set off immediately, rushing back to the camp at full speed!"
"yes!"
The Zuofeng Army, who were still cheering, heard the new order and immediately reorganized their formation and marched towards the camp at full speed.
Even some people who were seriously injured in the battle carried out military orders without complaint.
Mr. Gong was a little puzzled. Chuanyin exchanged opinions with Xu Chunniang, "After repeated battles, everyone is very tired. Since the reinforcements have arrived, we should take a good rest where we are. Why rush at full speed?"
Xu Chunniang shook her head slightly and replied through a message, "The reinforcements have not arrived. The fairy army and flag we saw just now are probably Commander Zhao who deliberately let them see it."
Elder Gong was startled, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "You mean, the fairy army and the flag are illusions? But illusions alone shouldn't fool those demons, right?"
"It's not all an illusion, at least the flag is real."
Xu Chunniang thought for a while and told Elder Gong her guess, "Commander Zhao is extremely accomplished in formations, which can be seen from the formation of the Zuofeng Army against the enemy.
She probably made this preparation on the way here, integrating the flag into the formation and only making it appear at the critical moment to scare away the demonic army. "
Elder Gong suddenly realized that he admired Zhao Mengdi even more. No wonder the soldiers in the Zuofeng Army admired her so much. She did have this strength.
Sure enough, after the Zuofeng Army had traveled a long way, they encountered belated reinforcements.
Everyone in the Zuofeng Army was not surprised by all this. This group of main forces in the immortal world was never very punctual.
After leading the Zuofeng Army away from the battle circle, Zhao Mengdi finally ordered everyone to rest where they were and count the casualties.
Xu Chunniang and Mr. Gong followed the example of the others. As soon as they set up the camp, someone came over and said, "Are you two newcomers who just joined the team today? The commander asked you to come over."
As if he was afraid that the two of them would be uneasy, the messenger added, "Don't worry, the commander is very talkative. I asked you to come over, probably because I want to know more about your strength."
Xu Chunniang and Mr. Gong looked at each other and followed this person into the main tent in the center.
Zhao Mengdi was sitting in front of the case and was writing something. When he heard the movement, he did not stop his movements.
"You guys sit down first. I still have some things on hand to deal with. I'll be done soon."
Xu Chunniang and Mr. Gong naturally had no objections and waited quietly aside. Except for the "swishing" sound of Zhao Mengdi writing, there was no other sound.
After drinking tea, Zhao Mengdi put away the pen and paper on his desk, looked at Xu Chunniang and Mr. Gong, and asked casually, "How much do you know about Zuo Fengjun?"
Mr. Gong didn't know why she asked this, and after thinking for a moment, he said cautiously.
"The Zuofeng Army is responsible for exploring the path. By fighting with a small demon army to find out the enemy's situation, gain insight into the demon army's strategy and report to the main army in a timely manner, it can save a lot of energy for the main army."
Zhao Mengdi twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at Xu Chunniang, "Do you think so too?"
Xu Chunniang thought for a while and decided to tell the truth.
Although she had known Zhao Mengdi for less than a day, it could be seen from her various performances during the battle that she was fundamentally different from someone like Luo Jun.
"On the surface, it seems to be the case, but the real situation of Zuofeng Army is not optimistic."
Zhao Mengdi dragged his chin with one hand and raised his eyebrows with interest, "Oh? Tell me what you think."
"I heard that only immortals like us who have made mistakes will be merged into the Zuofeng Army, and the mortality rate of the Zuofeng Army is obvious to everyone."
Although Zhao Mengdi was still smiling, his eyes had changed, "Continue talking."
"So the Zuofeng Army is an excluded and unpopular team."
Zhao Mengdi's eyes suddenly became sharp, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
A strong sense of oppression fell on Xu Chunniang, but her expression remained unchanged.
"When Gong Xingshan and I came to the battlefield, we were accused of delaying the opportunity to fight and were merged into the Zuofeng Army. When we were fighting against the demon army, we did not wait for real reinforcements.
So I would venture to guess that Zuofeng Army is in a very bad situation and is even being targeted. "
"Courage is a rare quality. Many people can see Zuo Fengjun's situation, but few people will tell it so directly like you."
The sharpness in Zhao Mengdi's eyes dimmed and he showed admiration, "In fact, not only the Zuofeng Army, but also me, was also targeted, otherwise I would not have been placed in the position of leader of the Zuofeng Army."
Xu Chunniang was a little surprised, "With your commander's strength, you shouldn't be targeted, right?"
Zhao Mengdi said meaningfully, "Many times, strength is not the most important thing. No matter how strong I am, I am only an immortal. Above the immortals, there are immortal kings, golden immortals, and even Da Luo Jinxian. Blocking an arm cannot block a car. How can a cricket shake a tree?" ?”
Xu Chunniang was silent. It couldn't be easier for an immortal with a higher realm to crush an immortal with a lower realm. The seemingly free fairy world actually has a stricter order.
Seeing that the two men understood what he meant, Zhao Mengdi said no more, "So our Zuofeng Army has only one purpose, and that is: to survive! No matter how powerful the enemy is, no matter how difficult the situation is, we must find a way to survive."
Xu Chunniang felt deeply that Commander Zhao was a truly strong man and a principled immortal.
Zuofeng Army is lucky to have such a leader.
"We understand what the Commander-in-Chief means."
Zhao Mengdi nodded slightly, "During the battle just now, I saw that you quickly adapted to the military formation. Have you ever been exposed to formations before?"
"Back to the commander, I have indeed done some research on the battle method. Based on my superficial understanding of the battle method, I tentatively joined the military formation."
Zhao Mengdi was a little surprised, "It's rare for a mere mortal to understand the military formation I set up."
She thought for a while, then took out an array plate and handed it to Xu Chunniang, "This is a gadget I made before. You can use it to kill time when you have nothing to do."
Xu Chunniang was a little hesitant, "I just joined the Zuofeng Army and I haven't made any achievements. How can I be honored?"
"You can take it as long as you want, it's not a valuable thing."
Zhao Mengdi waved his hand nonchalantly, "Since you are already a member of the Zuofeng Army, the stronger you are, the stronger the Zuofeng Army will be."
"yes."
Hearing this, Xu Chunniang no longer hesitated and accepted the array.
"Okay, you can retreat. In the days to come, you only need to remember one thing. The Zuofeng Army has no rules. If you want to live a long life, in addition to obeying military orders, you must seize every opportunity to improve your strength. Do you understand? ?”
"clear!"
After leaving the camp, Mr. Gong looked excited, "I have a hunch that as long as I can survive in the Zuofeng Army, my strength will definitely make a qualitative leap!" (End of Chapter)
