Chapter 45 The Great Defeat 13

The nearest settlement to the logistics base has completed the capital construction, and even the name has been taken. It is called Xiangyang Town, which is quite an old-fashioned name.

Today's construction is only some decoration work in the later stage, so only two employees stay here with more than a hundred evil spirits.

In order to prevent scattered indigenous harassment, Yang Zhenghua left them a hundred machine puppets and a small amount of ammunition.

The two employees felt that the troops of the Fire Tree Dynasty could break into the logistics base settlement mainly due to surprise. If there was a head-on confrontation, there would be no chance at all.

Of course, their idea is not wrong. If the stone swamp still adopts the old method to raid, even these more than a hundred machine puppets are enough to make them go back.

However, the two employees did not know that Shi Numa had recruited evil spirits. From the limited information, it can be seen that the Fire Tree Dynasty adopts an extreme discriminatory policy against evil spirits, and does not regard evil spirits as equal intelligent life at all. If there is a metaphor, it is probably the feeling of human beings looking at pigs and dogs.

Therefore, after the two employees armed more than a hundred evil puppets, they are quite confident that they can resist the attack of this unknown Fire Tree Dynasty troops. They even had the leisure to joke, thinking that it was God who opened his eyes and sent credit to the two of them. They also planned to catch a few hell natives alive to be servants. After exploring the army in the west for so long, they saw those combat mages catching the indigenous people and evil spirits one by one by one. They either changed the points or left them for use. They saw these new things. Jin's employees are still quite hot-eyed. Thinking about it, when they return to the world, they take two hell servants with them. No matter where they go, it's a matter of face. Isn't this price going up at once?

However, the two optimistic people did not see the incoming Hell Natives.

The stone swamp with sufficient ammunition, under the circumstances of time constraints and heavy tasks and an unknown road ahead, adopted the usual human style of playing, opened the way for a long-range attack, and immediately opened fire far away from Xiangyang Town. With only two waves of bombardment, the whole Xiangyang Town was razed to the ground. The two employees were not equipped with protective machine puppets like the combat mage. They were bombarded into fragments in the first wave of attacks. Instead, more than a hundred evil spirits carried the attack because they were attached to the machine armor. However, it turns out that without the command of a human mage, there are only evil puppets left, even hundreds of thousands of people. So when Ishibo rushed up with the team, these hundreds of evil spirits surrendered like their predecessors and turned gorgeously to become a member of the Eastern Expeditionary Army of the Fire Tree Dynasty.

The employee who escaped from the logistics base still walked along the road to the command center.

The settlement where the Xijin Command Center is located is actually very close to the front line, which is directly the next stop in Xiangyang Town.

When Chen Qi's staff rushed to the settlement where the command center was located, Shinuma had taken a large force less than ten kilometers away from the command center.

Chen Qi didn't know that Xiangyang Town was flattened without even ten minutes. He also felt that Xiangyang Town could definitely withstand the enemy's attack. He was just worried that other Fire Tree Dynasty troops would bypass the wilderness to raid the command center. This is not impossible. Because of the discovery of the Fire Tree Dynasty, the commanders of the westward troops had grass in their hearts and did not clean up the nearby wilderness at all. There are still a considerable number of indigenous settlements near both sides of the highway. That is to say, what the company's westward troops can control at this time is actually the road and the settlement on the highway built for the west.

When Chen Qi saw that the settlement where the command center was located was safe and sound, he was really relieved and didn't care about anything else. He plunged into the command center of the westward force, and then he was stunned by the scene he saw in front of him.

This command center, which is related to the safety of hundreds of thousands of troops in the west and the company's whole westward strategy, is actually empty!

Chen Qi is completely confused!

What happened? How can there be no one in the command center? Who is commanding this battle with the Fire Tree Dynasty?

If it hadn't been for the people coming and going on the street before coming in, Chen Qi would have almost doubted whether the troops of the Fire Tree Dynasty had given the headquarters to the pot.

Chen Qi was stunned for a while before he came to his senses. He turned his head and rushed out of the headquarters. He casually grabbed a passing company employee on the street and asked, "Where are the people in the headquarters?"

This employee, like Chen Qi, was sent by the latter. Usually, he can only do some construction work. Although the command center is close at hand, he has never been in. Hearing Chen Qi's question, he couldn't help but be happy: "Of course, it's in the headquarters."

Chen Qi was in a hurry and roared, "There is not even a ghost in the headquarters!"

"Haha, there is no one in the headquarters..." The employee was happy twice and realized the seriousness of the matter. "How can it be!" He threw away Chen Qi and rushed into the headquarters. When he saw the empty scene, he was also shocked. He turned around and ran out and asked, "When did you find it?" Chen Qi said urgently, "I came back from the front line. There is an emergency. I just went in! How can there be no one?" The employee scratched his head and said, "I don't know either. You know that those combat mages look down on us one by one and don't let us enter the headquarters." Chen Qi was so anxious that he sweated: "Then who can I report to if I have an emergency?" The employee hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, there is an investigation team here, which is said to represent the company and the mage association. Why don't you talk to them? Or contact Kaituocheng directly and report to Manager Han?

"Let's get close first and take me to the investigation team!" Chen Qi hesitated a little, and the idea of seeking stability prevailed. He still didn't want to report that he would offend Yang Zhenghua.

The employee hurriedly took Chen Qi to the investigation team station.

Seeing that this so-called investigation team that can represent the company and the Mage Association was just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, Chen Qi couldn't help but realize it quickly and guessed that this was probably a member of the yin and yang soldier unit of Yong Bowen, the boss of the company. At present, he did not dare to despise it and quickly asked who was in charge.

The yin and yang soldier girl who led the team was quite stunned when she heard that there were people coming from the western front line and there was an emergency military situation to report. She quickly came out and saw Chen Qi. The first sentence asked, "Why don't you report to the command center?" The answer was even more amazing, "There is no one in the headquarters!"

There is no one in the headquarters?!

The yin and yang soldier girl who led the team subconsciously said this sentence twice before coming to her senses. She shouted in disbelief, "How can it be? Isn't Ye Gao in charge of directing the frontline battle there?"

The employee who came with Chen Qi patted his legs and shouted, "Oh, I remember. I saw Deputy Manager Ye a few hours ago. He hurried out with a straight face and didn't know what to do. I greeted him, but he ignored me!"
