Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 1136: Bait

However, Meng Chao did not see any veterans of the White Bone Battalion.

He also did not smell the scent of the tracking powder on Leaf.

It seemed that only the hundreds of new warriors who had just joined the White Bone Battalion were hiding in this hot forest.

“Could Leaf and the others be carrying out another ambush mission somewhere else?”

Ice Storm was lurking next to Meng Chao. She was completely immersed in the rotten mud, and even her face that was floating to the surface had turned black.

Only her eyes were still emitting the sharpness of icicles.

Her lips did not seem to move at all.

However, her voice was precisely transmitted into Meng Chao’s ear canal under the gathering of spiritual energy.

“It won’t.”

Meng Chao was like a piece of rotten wood. He pondered for a long time in the mud before he raised his head slightly and said in a deep voice, “This is an extremely large-scale and crucial ambush battle. If I’m not wrong, the entire white bone battalion will certainly come out. Everyone, including leaf, will participate in the battle. We just need to be vigilant and wait patiently!”

“Is that so?”

Ice Storm’s curiosity was once again piqued by him, “How do you know that this ambush battle is extremely large-scale and important?”? “You must know that the reinforcements that are coming to rescue hundred blade city are not limited to just one group. Beside US, there are only a few hundred new soldiers who have just joined the white bone battalion and have not even met Holy Maiden Gu Meng.”

“That’s the problem.”

Meng Chao retorted, “Don’t you think that it’s a little too rash for a military officer to lead a group of soldiers who had just joined the white bone battalion and were not familiar with each other? Even he did not know the names of the soldiers?

“Yes. Those who are qualified to join the white bone battalion are all one-in-a-hundred warriors. After the ‘Rat God’s blessing’last night, they have also mastered all the killing techniques.

“However, an ambush is indeed a battle that requires the highest level of tactical knowledge and discipline of the soldiers.

“The warriors of the rat people around us are brave, but they lack the ability to lie on the ground for a day or even two without moving under the premise of high concentration and silence.

“Such an ability requires years of rigorous training before it can be slowly developed.

“Our opponent is also one of Turanze’s best experts in sneak attacks. The vigilance of these wolf pups might be even higher than that of the Lion Man and the Tigermen.

“May I ask, how can such a hastily formed ambush force capture the well-trained elites of the Wolf Clan?

“No matter how good our ambush looks at first glance, it’s useless. I’m afraid that the commander of the Wolf clan will be able to discover a large group of people lying in ambush from afar through the flight path of the startled birds in the sky above the forest and the chirping of the insects in the forest.

“It’s our good fortune that the other party is on guard and took a detour.

“I’m afraid that the other party will play along and pretend that they don’t know that we are hiding here. In fact, they will rush out from an unexpected direction and catch us off guard!”

Ice storm was slightly startled. After thinking for a moment, he also found more suspicious points.

“It makes sense. The white bone battalion only sent a few officers and priests to take over our team. They didn’t even ask for everyone’s names, and they brought us here. This is really not right.

“Logically speaking, if we want to unleash the strongest combat ability of these New Warriors, we should at least send a group of grassroots officers with rich combat experience to pull up the skeleton of the entire battle team.

“How could they just casually throw us into the forest? Other than simple and crude orders, they didn’t deploy any tactics. Even if they did, they wouldn’t be able to carry them out. How could they possibly win the battle

“Perhaps the other side didn’t even think of relying on us to win the war.”

Meng Chao said, “The other side knows very well that with our batch of newly promoted warriors, even if we train for three to five to seven more days, coupled with the shrewd and capable sergeants, and carry out our tactics and intentions into every soldier’s mind, it would still be impossible to annihilate the enemy reinforcements.”

Ice Storm was stunned.

“Then, what is the purpose of deploying us here?”She asked with a frown.

“We are bait.”

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes. His gaze was like an invisible ray, constantly scanning the surrounding environment. He did not let go of the seemingly calm pond, as well as the overly bright flowers and plants.

“As you can see, this is the west side of hundred blade city. It is the only way to assist hundred blade city, and it is the ideal battlefield for ambushes. This is something that both the Great Horn Legion and the Wolf Legion know.”

Meng Chao continued, “The stone forest next to the forest is filled with danger, and it is not good for the reinforcements to pass through. However, this forest is far from a path. There are also countless corners that can ambush thousands of fearless warriors.

“If I were the commander of the Wolf reinforcements.

“Even if I gave up on the stone forest and chose to pass through the middle of the forest.

“It would be impossible for me to let down my guard. I believe that the ambushers would only wait in the stone forest foolishly.

“Therefore, whether the Great Horn Army chooses New Warriors like us who have just joined the white bone battalion, or the veterans who have spent countless resources and years in the white bone battalion to carry out the ambush mission, the reinforcements of the Wolf clan will most likely discover us.

“After thinking about it, if I were to plan the ambush, the only solution I could come up with would be to arrange a batch of bait for the reinforcements of the Wolf tribe to discover and defeat. Only then would I be able to lower the wariness of the reinforcements of the Wolf tribe.”

“We Are… bait?”Icicles kept growing in the depths of icestorm’s eyes, becoming harder and sharper.

“That’s right. Just like the key to deploying a sentry post, it is a combination of light and darkness. While some of the sentries are deployed in the open, they must deploy even more powerful means in the dark. I believe that other than us, there must be another even more powerful ambush force deployed around this forest — that is the true elite of the White Bone Battalion, a trump card personally forged by the ancient Dream Saintess.”

Meng Chao said, “As I said just now, once the commander of the Wolf Clan’s reinforcements discovers our existence, he has two choices. He can either take a detour or play along.

“However, because the Wolf clan can not bear the responsibility of losing hundred blade city, even if they take it back after it falls, the entire Wolf clan will become the laughingstock of Turan’s epic for a thousand years. After all, the ones who conquered hundred blade city were the lowly and weak rats. Even if the war flag with the skeleton rat pattern fluttered on the tower of Hundred Blade City for the blink of an eye, it would still be an indelible shame for the Wolf clan, and the Lion and tiger clans would certainly take the opportunity to launch an attack and further weaken the Wolf Clan’s forces.

“The reinforcements of the Wolf clan do not dare to take the risk.

“They need more time than us.

“Besides the path that we must pass, if we take a detour, we will have to go around the entire mountain range. It will take at least three to five days.

“Three to five days. Who knows if the overwhelming tide of rats will take down hundred blade city, tear apart the glory of the Wolf Clan, and Trample on hell?

“Therefore, knowing that there were ambushers in the forest, the commander of the Wolf Clan could only choose to march toward the Tiger Mountain and try to destroy all the troops of the Great Horn Army deployed in the forest in order to take control of the path that they had to pass through.

“The purpose of our ambush is to make the commander of the Wolf Clan Misestimate the size and combat ability of the ambushers. At the same time, it will also expose the full strength of the reinforcements of the Wolf clan. In the most ideal situation, the newly-promoted warriors who have just received the blessing of the Rat God will be able to burst out with astonishing combat ability in the middle of life and death, just like the sticky and rotten swamp that has bound the claws, teeth, and limbs of the reinforcements of the Wolf clan.

“This way, when the real ambush troops appear, it will be possible to cut the throat of the reinforcements of the Wolf clan with the sharpest blade!”

Icestorm clicked his tongue in admiration in his heart.

After thinking for a long while, he said, “But how do you know that the scale of this ambush is extremely large and crucial?”

“Of course, this is because the value of our ‘bait’is too high.”

Meng Chao said, “If it was a normal tactic of luring the enemy, any random batch of cannon fodder would be able to execute it. In any case, there are plenty of rat civilians who are constantly seeking refuge with the great horn army from all directions. There is no need to carefully select so many brave warriors who are not afraid of death. Furthermore, we have to expend a large amount of resources to pour so many killing techniques into our brains.

“After all, no matter what the outcome of the ambush is, the troops acting as bait will definitely suffer the most devastating blow. They might even be completely wiped out.

“Unless, the reinforcements of the Wolf tribe that the white bone battalion wants to ambush possess extremely powerful combat strength. Ordinary cannon fodder will not be able to block them at all and will be pierced through by them in an instant.

“Only warriors who have been through hundreds of battles and are incomparably ferocious will be able to slow down their footsteps slightly and interfere with their judgment.

“And if we want to capture such an incomparably powerful reinforcements of the Wolf tribe, it will be impossible for the white bone battalion to succeed without going all out.

“Therefore, close your eyes and recover your strength. We are about to face an intense battle. I hope leaf is lucky enough to save his life before we find him
