Chapter 638 General Tan's Thoughts
Finally, Jiang Ci kissed Bai Mianmian on the lips, and as he once again drew excited glances from Zhuo Juntao and the others, he released Bai Mianmian and walked towards the command post.
In a good mood, he didn't care at all about the looks Zhuo Juntao and the others were giving him.
Jiang Ci brought Bai Mianmian back with two main tasks.
First, we must ensure her safe return.
Now that this task is complete, he should move on to his second major task—to refine the deployment for the battle against the Moth Zerg.
Bai Mianmian sat in her usual spot where she watched the monitor screen, watching Jiang Ci, whose mood had clearly improved, walk away, her smile undiminished.
She had promised to stay by his side until the wormhole ended, but the wormhole wasn't going to appear only once.
Besides, how could Jiang Ci be sure that he wouldn't need to go out and kill the moth insect race later?
Jiang Ci arrived at the command position and frowned slightly upon seeing the images displayed on the various screens. A hint of confusion even appeared in his eyes.
According to his previous arrangements, the Second Legion should not have been operating at full firepower.
What happened during the time he was back?
Jiang Ci was not the only one with this question.
Shi Sijin, who was still killing moths on the other side of the wormhole, was also puzzled by the combat power of the Second Legion.
Have they gone mad from killing the moth-insect race? They even plundered and killed a lot of his own moth-insects!
He wasn't concerned about those one or two moths, but could he please tell him what happened?
They've fought together many times, eaten together, and had fun together. Is there anything he can't say about them?!
Marshal Shi saw that the approaching moth-insect race had been killed by the Second Legion's team, and that they were all in good condition, so he had no doubts or dissatisfaction.
However, the Second Legion's combat power suddenly exploded, affecting not only Marshal Shi Sijin and others, but also personnel from both sides.
On one side was General Tan, who led the Seventh Legion.
After witnessing the Second Legion's team repeatedly plundering and killing the Seventh Legion's Moth Insectoids, General Tan immediately began to speculate about conspiracies.
Is Jiang Ci trying to put on a show in front of Marshal Shi that "even though he's not here, the Second Legion's combat power still surpasses that of the other legions"?
Unwilling to be outdone, General Tan immediately intensified his attacks on the moth horde and changed the 7th Legion's battle plan.
Isn't it just a competition to see who kills the most Moth Insects?
Now let Marshal Shi see if the Seventh Army Corps, under his leadership, can achieve even better results than the Second Army Corps!
On the other hand, the mercenaries of various factions are also affected.
However, for the mercenaries, the Second Legion's relentless bombardment was an excellent move.
Because the Moth Insectoids carry their own poison powder, mercenaries are much more hesitant to kill them than other insectoid species.
Now that the Second Legion has taken on some of the Moth Insectoid threat, the number of Moth Insectoids killed by the mercenaries has increased significantly.
However, this advantage did not last long. As the Seventh Legion's forces unleashed their full power, the mercenaries were able to kill even fewer Moth Insects than before the Second Legion's forces had been unleashed.
The mercenaries from various factions: "..."
Dry!
However, despite their anger, the mercenaries had no choice but to retreat under the Seventh Legion's firepower, which was even more intense than that of the Second Legion.
As the two legion squads launched a fierce attack, the number of surviving Moths was rapidly decreasing.
Seeing that the situation was tilting in their favor, Marshal Shi maneuvered his mech to retreat, leaving the battlefield to the others.
Upon seeing this, the Second and Seventh Army Corps units near Marshal Shi launched an attack on the battlefield he had retreated from almost simultaneously.
Ultimately, the Second Army divided up a battlefield area that was one-third larger than that of the Seventh Army.
General Tan was very dissatisfied with the result and immediately adjusted the battle plan.
The offensive of the Seventh Army Corps suddenly intensified again, and the attack coverage area was further expanded.
The mercenaries who were originally killing the moth-insect race in the corner were instantly affected and had no choice but to retreat again. As the Seventh Legion's offensive became increasingly fierce, the Second Legion's battle team, under Jiang Ci's command, began to gradually slow down its offensive.
Several Second Legion squads even assisted the Seventh Legion in besieging and killing the Moth Zerg.
General Tan noticed that the Second Army Corps' offensive had weakened, but this did not diminish his improved mood at all, as he had gained the upper hand over the Second Army Corps.
The Seventh Army Corps suppressed the Second Army Corps, proving that the commander of the Seventh Army Corps, Jiang Ci, was stronger than Jiang Ci!
Marshal Shi looked at the coordination between the Second Army Corps and the Seventh Army Corps with satisfaction in his eyes.
It seems that having Jiang Ci help train the troops was the right decision, as the strength of each team in the Seventh Legion has been significantly improved.
“Aci”.
Just as Marshal Shi was becoming more and more satisfied with what he saw, Shi Sijin suddenly shouted in a serious tone on the Second Army Corps' operational communication channel.
Jiang Ci, who had already reconnected to the Second Legion's combat communication channel, immediately diverted some of his attention to him upon hearing this.
"Has the barbecue started yet?" Shi Sijin's seriousness vanished in an instant, and you could hear a hint of eagerness in his tone.
After thinking it over, Shi Sijin concluded that the only thing that could excite the Second Legion team so much was the barbecued Zerg that they could eat during the opening of the wormhole.
This time, the moth-like insects are poisonous and cannot be eaten, but according to his understanding, there were quite a few mantis shrimp-like insects before.
He didn't mind at all continuing to eat barbecued mantis shrimp and insects.
"..." Jiang Ci, who thought he was going to say something important, was speechless and took a deep breath.
As long as there are no unexpected situations... it's good. Jiang Ci comforted himself in his heart.
Marshal Shi, who was also connected to the Second Army Corps' operational communication channel, fell silent. "..."
At first, he also thought that Shi Sijin had discovered something he hadn't, but...
That's it!
Marshal Shi knew about barbecue. Shi Sijin had told him about it before and had also sent him photos and videos of barbecue.
But is this the time to talk about barbecue?!
"You brat!" Marshal Shi scolded irritably over the Second Army Corps' operational communication channel, "Is this the time to talk about such trivial matters?"
Second Army Corps Command Room.
Bai Mianmian raised her hand and touched her ear, feeling a little embarrassed.
When Shi Sijin mentioned barbecue, she was actually thinking about what kind of barbecue she wanted to eat.
Therefore, when Marshal Shi said those words, she felt as if he was talking about her.
Those who also wanted to eat barbecue also felt awkward, including members of the Second Legion and members of the inspection team brought by Shi Sijin.
At this time, almost all the teams in the Second Legion knew that Bai Mianmian's injury was a misunderstanding.
The photos and videos secretly taken by Zhuo Juntao and others were posted in the group chat, along with a strong condemnation of those who spread rumors.
If the current situation didn't prevent it, Zhuo Juntao would definitely drag those people who spread rumors to the training room, and he would have a good chat with them!
Seeing that Bai Mianmian was safe and sound, and with the current battle situation becoming clearer, the soldiers relaxed their tense nerves and their thoughts began to wander elsewhere.
When Shi Sijin suggested barbecue, wasn't that exactly what they wanted to do?
But the result...
Jiang Ci had originally thought that since Shi Sijin wanted to eat barbecue, it wouldn't be a problem to have the robot do it outside the command building. However, he didn't expect to hear Marshal Shi's words at this moment, and he was momentarily speechless.
