Chapter 935: Chapter 928: Setting Up an Ambush
"What’s the matter, anything wrong?" Luo’er, whose personal space was invaded, took a step back and then asked her with a somewhat guilty conscience.
"No, nothing," Axia shook her head and then smiled, "My intuition tells me that your identity is definitely not that simple. You must be more than just the Captain of the Advance Team, right?"
"I..." Luo’er hesitated.
"I hope that when you return from this battle, you can tell me some things I’m interested in," Axia said, winking playfully at Luo’er. She then put on her hood, picked up her recurve bow, and walked out of the room.
"What is she trying to do?" Seeing Axia’s actions, Tangmo immediately bristled, strode up to Luo’er, and glared at Axia’s departing figure.
"Come on, why are you jealous of an auntie?" Luo’er said with a wry smile.
Tangmo sighed, then turned around to look up at him, and then she reached out to cradle Luo’er’s tender cheek, saying reflectively, "Why do so many women like you? Loving you is really exhausting."
"What are you talking about, there are other people here," Luo’er said, his face turning red as he quickly backed away.
Hearing Luo’er’s words, Tangmo turned to look at Eve beside her. Noticing Tangmo’s gaze, Eve slightly lowered her head, a hint of loss in her eyes.
"Moumou, we need to start giving orders next, so, that..." Luo’er said, somewhat conflicted.
"Don’t be so awkward, I get it," Tangmo said, extending her hand knowingly, "everyone has their own expertise. In this respect, that unlucky girl is indeed better than me, I admit."
As she spoke, she took a deep breath, then naturally wrapped her arms around Luo’er’s neck, resting her head on his chest. Soon after, Luo’er felt Tangmo’s hands suddenly tighten, and he instinctively raised his hand to his mouth. It was then that Tangmo quickly lifted her head and kissed the palm of his hand.
"Luo’er, you tricked me!" Tangmo said grievously.
"I knew you would act up, no messing around," Luo’er said, rolling his eyes.
"No, no, Luo’er, I want to!" Tangmo simply started to act coquettishly.
"We’re in the middle of commanding the battle, stop fooling around, okay? If you keep this up, I’ll have your sister take you away," Luo’er said decisively.
"Hmmph, we agreed it was okay when no one’s around, big liar!" Tangmo let go of him and stood to one side, pouting irritably.
"Who told you there’s no one around," Luo’er glanced at Eve, then said helplessly, "We still have a mission to focus on, don’t always think about doing that kind of thing."
"Ah, forget it, I won’t expect any intimacy from you anymore. It seems like unless we get married, you definitely won’t touch me," Tangmo sighed.
She turned around, only to find that Luo’er wasn’t paying any attention to her words. He was hunched over the table, discussing the enemy distribution with Fulajie’er, which made her face turn green with anger.
"Good," Luo’er nodded in satisfaction, then pointed at the map and said, "Fula, order Yue’er to this high ground to set up a sniper rifle, targeting high-value enemies; order Little Ke to set up a machine gun at this position, this spot is the enemy’s inevitable path, and their flank will surely be hit once they pass by here; then after that, order..."
"You’re telling her too much; she won’t remember it all," Tangmo said with a sour face as she crossed her arms and walked over.
"Bad woman, you underestimate me, I will definitely remember!" Fulajie’er retorted unconvinced.
"Then repeat it," Tangmo shrugged.
"Eh, that, um, what was it, uh, order who... to where..." When she was asked like this, Fulajie’er was immediately stumped, standing there for a long time without being able to say a full sentence.
"Ah," Luo’er sighed softly and then patiently said, "Let me repeat it for you once more..."
"Luo’er, I’m sorry..." Fulajie’er turned around with an apologetic face and said.
"It’s okay, it’s normal for you to not remember so much the first time you try, just tell me if there’s anything you don’t understand, and I’ll explain it to you clearly," Luo’er said with a smile.
"Ah, why aren’t you so tender towards me." Tangmo sighed.
"When have I ever not been tender with you," Luo’er said with a mix of laughter and helplessness, waving his hand, "Stop being sentimental and come over to help."
"I got it..." Tangmo drew out his tone, reluctantly walking to the table.
After the two’s analysis and arrangements, the distribution of the team members was generally decided. According to Luo’er’s plan, the Advance Team should set up an ambush circle between the houses and the area where the enemy was arriving.
In principle, it’s best if these enemies could be separated. Although grouping up can ensure the exertion of their firepower, the same would also result in them taking multiple times the enemy’s firepower in return.
So Luo’er’s idea was to use several ambushes to pull and split the enemy, and then defeat them one by one. Baiyue would mainly snipe high-value targets, while Hu Daoke and Cheng Ziang would primarily strike the enemy’s grouped targets, forcing them to disperse.
Besides, Axia would roam the periphery, precisely injuring isolated targets. Her bow and arrows may indeed struggle against grouped targets, but sniping isolated ones was still manageable. After all, she had been drawing the bow for hundreds of years and was a very experienced archer herself.
As for Feng, Luo’er planned to let her penetrate from the enemy’s flanks, relying on her powerful combat capabilities to break through the enemy’s formation directly. If the situation was optimistic, then Feng’s incursion could completely collapse the enemy’s morale, turning the remaining forces into stragglers, hardly able to regroup and launch an attack.
Luo’er did not plan to annihilate all of the enemies; although they could indeed achieve this with Feng’s help, doing so would not benefit them. Instead, Feng might need more time to recuperate, which would slow their pace.
In the bare jungle, Hu Daoke laboriously cleared the snow on top of a protruding boulder, then set up the machine gun on it and shivered as he lay prone on the rock.
Because the snow was gradually melting, the snow outside was no longer as fluffy as before. Digging it up was very strenuous, and the melting of ice and snow required more heat absorption, which made it much colder than when it was snowing.
"Big guy, Luo’er said the enemy will appear from your southwest direction. Intercept them halfway through their march. If you encounter a counterattack, immediately move to the southeast direction, a hundred meters away, where there’s a high slope that will be your second ambush point," Fulajie’er ordered.
"Xiao Fula, such words should be said by you, not Luo’er. You will command us in the future, so now you must take responsibility seriously. The Boss is just teaching you, not to be a scapegoat for your mistakes, understand?" Hu Daoke rubbed his hands as he turned and laid on the rock and said to Fulajie’er in midair.
"Eh, what do you mean?" Fulajie’er froze for a bit and asked in a fluster.
"It means that you ought to command well, without always thinking that if something goes wrong, the Boss will cover for you. Xiao Fula, if something goes wrong, you might never see one of us again, so you must be conscientious," Hu Daoke said.
"Oh, I, I, I understand. I will take responsibility for you!" Fulajie’er nodded her head excitedly.
"Don’t get too excited, don’t get too excited, the more excited you are, the more nervous I get," Hu Daoke waved his hand, clearing his throat before continuing, "On one hand, we follow commands and deployment, and on the other hand, we will also adjust our state based on the battlefield’s situation, so now your main job is to just support us well, got it?"
"I understand, I understand," Fulajie’er nodded repeatedly, then looked at him nervously and said, "Big guy, you can’t let anything happen to you."
"Are you cursing me..." Hu Daoke said with a laugh, a touch of helplessness showing.
"I’m not cursing you, I’m concerned about you. I’m really afraid that you will get into trouble because of me, that would really upset me," Fulajie’er said seriously, frowning deeply.
"Relax, relax," Hu Daoke waved his hand, reassuring her, "No need to worry about me, I might not be adept at fighting in a war, but I sure have the skills to escape. If all else fails, running away swiftly ends the matter."
