The blue sea is calm and waveless, but you can't see the edge at a glance. There are no beaches on the coastline, only dense rocks. The rocks are connected to the endless mountains. Even if you want to march along the coastline, it is impossible.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Xun Changjun was stunned for a while before murmuring: "Chief of Staff Luo, we are in a desperate situation."

Luo Lie nodded and said, "Yeah, I was originally wondering why the cavemen in that mountain city didn't come out to attack us, but now I understand, they don't have to come out at all."

There is no way to heaven, no door to earth, and no way to cross the sea. This is the rhythm of being trapped here alive, not to mention the cave dwellers in the city, no one else would send troops to hurt each other.

How can it be more cost-effective to injure the enemy one thousand and injure oneself eight hundred, than to trap the enemy to death without using weapons?

Xun Changjun asked: "Chief of Staff Luo, what do you think?"

Luo Lie pondered for a moment and said, "I think there is only one way left for us."

Xun Changjun knew what this road was, but he still asked: "Siege the city?"

Listed: "Besides attacking the city, is there any other way?"

Xun Changjun smiled bitterly: "No more."

List said: "If we can capture this city, it will be beneficial to us."

Xun Changjun nodded and said: "Well, we can guard the natural danger and compete with the puppet army."

"It's more than that." Luo Lie added: "Commander, looking at this city from our current position, do you think this city is used to prevent enemies on land from entering the sea?"

"No!" Xun Changjun shook his head and said: "Unless someone comes with a boat, why should we prevent people from entering the sea? I think this city is more like a defense against the sea, preventing ships at sea from landing people."

List said: "You are right! So I think there is probably a boat in this city!"

Xun Changjun said: "What you said makes sense. But the question is whether we can break this strong city."

List said: "First send the scouts to climb to the top of the mountain to take a look."

The city pass is built halfway up the mountain. Naturally, you can have a panoramic view of the scenery at the foot of the mountain in the city. Similarly, you can also see the scenery in the city in detail from the top of the mountain.

Xun Changjun immediately dispatched a reconnaissance team of 20 people and asked them to climb to the top of the mountain with binoculars to observe the situation in the city.

The reconnaissance team went there for about 4 hours. After that, a team member came down and brought back a shocking news. This turned out to be an empty city with almost no one in it!

"What? How is this possible?"

Xun Changjun really couldn't believe that such a big city with no war relics around it, how could it become an empty city?

Luo Lie suggested: "Since it is an empty city, we might as well send a team to go in and take a look."

Xun Changjun said: "It makes sense!"

At that time, Lao Xun sent a brigade of more than 2,000 soldiers and asked them to take human ladders into the city.

The brigade's space force entered the city very smoothly, without any harassment during the whole process. When entering the city, they first opened the city gate, and then carefully searched and inspected the city before sending the communications troops out to report, "Report to the commander, Chief of Staff, there are less than a thousand cavemen in the city and they have been captured by our army, please give instructions."

Xun Changjun was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately led all divisions and brigades of the Space Force into the city. After entering the city, Xun Changjun asked Luo Lie to be responsible for interrogating the prisoners in the city. There were not many people in such a large city pass with an area of ​​​​30 square kilometers, and there must not be many people in it. normal. And he himself, after closing the city gate, came to the top of the city to observe the enemy's situation.

Since the city pass is located halfway up the mountain, you can see farther away. Lao Xun saw the chasing puppet troops in his telescope. After putting down the telescope, he also discovered that Ding Junchao, who had been following his troops, was standing under the city.

What a coward! Xun Changjun was so angry that his teeth itched. Without Ding Junchao's tracking, the pursuing puppet troops would not have known that their troops had entered the empty city. When the puppet troops arrived at the foot of the mountain, they could have launched a surprise attack.

But now, due to the existence of Ding Junchao, there is no secret about the movements of his troops, and he can only hold on.

He was really unwilling to give in and couldn't help but look at the city and asked: "Ding Junchao, you have such good skills, why did you become a traitor?"

Ding Junchao sneered: "You know me, are my skills good? No, right? I am in the Space Force local unit, and I am only qualified to be a private. Who are you?"

Lao Xun was speechless. After a long while, he said: "I am Xun Changjun. I let the graduates of the military academy start from the grassroots level. I modified this system, but I am here to cultivate generals, not to suppress and bury them. I hope you can understand."

Ding Junchao showed a surprised expression and said: "Oh, training generals? Why didn't I feel it? During the year when I was a private in the Space Force, I only did cleaning work, and I was not promoted or received anything. Commendations, not to mention promotions and commendations, I didn’t even get a single verbal praise. Don’t tell me that people are going to be handed big responsibilities from the sky, I don’t believe it.”

Ding Junchao's words did not distort the facts. Veterans look down on new recruits, and veterans who have been in the army for many years bully student soldiers who have just joined the army. These phenomena have always existed in the Space Force.

Although Xun Changjun is the commander-in-chief, he has no way of understanding the phenomena at the bottom, and even if he does understand, he cannot properly solve them. After listening to Ding Junchao's words, he couldn't help but blame himself, and said with shame: "In the past few years, I have been focusing on restoring armaments and combat effectiveness, and I have neglected grassroots management."

Of course Lao Xun understands that geniuses like Ding Junchao need motivation and encouragement the most. If they can't get even a word of praise, it is indeed a dereliction of duty by the grassroots officers. However, he did not pass the responsibility to the grassroots officers, but had the courage to bear it on himself. He added: "If I focus some of my energy on grassroots construction, I will never let you be wronged."

"Forget it, you're just doing it as an afterthought!" Ding Junchao sneered at Lao Xun's statement, "Don't lie to me, Chu Di and I are military academy students at the same level. Before we graduate, you have to give Chu Di a Major General, please don’t say this doesn’t happen. We are all military students, so why does Chu Di receive special care?”

When Xun Changjun proposed re-employing Chu Di at the high-level meeting of the Earth Alliance, it was rejected by the majority of the officials present. This matter was not a secret. Xun Changjun did not deny it, and Xiao Zhi said rationally: "You are different from Chu Di. At that time, Chu Di had become the backbone of the fight against aliens and created an extremely brilliant record. What were you doing at that time? Do you think you can Compete with him?"

Ding Junchao laughed and said: "You are right to the point. Do you know why I want to join the Guardians of the Galaxy? I just want to compete with Chu Di on the opposite side! To be honest, I really hope that Chu Di will also In your team, if he was here, I would have had a showdown with him!"

After hearing this, Xun Changjun became angry, "Arrogant! Are you still competing with Chu Di? If you really have this ability, you should also destroy a wave of aliens to show the world, instead of betraying your own nation like you are now. , go be a traitor!"
