A trip to the second dimension

Chapter 69: Don’t underestimate others, don’t underestimate war

Without alerting the two secret sentries, Hope and Ezio touched the two of them without any need to remind them. The hidden swords in their right hands popped out and they rushed out in unison!

Before the secret whistle could react, there were only two slight "pop" sounds, hoping that their hidden swords had already penetrated into the hearts of the two secret whistles.

Because their mouths and noses had already been covered by their left hands, until their death, the two people did not make any movement to alert others of the assassin's arrival.

He let go of his left hand and retracted the hidden sword in his right hand, letting the wide-eyed secret whistle slip to the ground.

Hope turned to look at Ezio and found that the other person's movements were also very crisp and neat, so he nodded and gestured for the other person to follow.

Because it was just a temporary camp, they did not build walls or guard towers.

Some tents were simply set up in the center of the camp. Except for some senior officers who could rest, most of them were used to store supplies.

As for the soldiers and civilians, they were more pitiful. They could just spread a blanket on the ground and sleep around the fire.

"there."

Hope said hello, trotted forward two steps quickly, then slid a shovel to the ground, slid directly behind a soldier standing guard, and came to a row of simple carriages.

Seeing this, Ezio followed suit and slid past the soldier without attracting the slightest attention from him.

The low sense of presence brought about by the assassin's instinct is so awesome that it can directly weaken the enemy into a deaf and blind person without any negotiation.

"There are more guards at the kerosene area. Deal with a few of them and try to steal the kerosene and burn the camp. If that doesn't work, just burn the kerosene directly. They will be busy as well."

Hope said, and Ezio nodded.

"How's the flying knife going?"

Hope pulled out a small throwing knife from the knife belt on her chest and turned to look at Ezio.

Seeing this, Ezio also took off a throwing knife, nodded seriously, and said: "It's okay, the shot will not miss at this distance."

"Well, you attack that person first. His location is not within the sight of others. Killing him will not immediately alert the enemy in a short period of time."

I hope that the person who said it, Ezio, also noticed it. Hearing this, he didn't say much, nodded, held the throwing knife in his right hand, and threw it directly towards the person!

In the dark night, an inconspicuous whistling sound passed by in a flash. Ten meters away, the soldier who was dozing with a spear in his arms and his head was suddenly stabbed in the throat!

His throat was stabbed, and he didn't even have the energy to shout. He could only stare wide-eyed, blood kept pouring out of his neck, his legs went weak, and he immediately fell on the grass.

"Well done."

Hope smiled and nodded. She had really assumed the role of a mentor. Even the way she looked at Ezio turned into a "teachable brat".

"Look at me next."

Hope said, with Ezio's expectant expression, he also threw a throwing knife at another guard with great ease.

But just when the flying knife was about to pierce the opponent's neck, the man's nose twitched for some unknown reason, and he suddenly raised his head and sneezed loudly!

Because the movement was too big, the flying knife passed directly through the opponent's body. The guard was unharmed and even let out a long sigh of relief unconsciously.

"…………"

As a mentor, I actually failed. How embarrassing!

Hope immediately wanted to cover her face, feeling that she was too embarrassed to see Ezio.

But Ezio kept staring at the direction in which Hope's flying knife was thrown, and suddenly said in confusion: "Hope, did you pierce the barrel containing kerosene to directly light a fire?"

"Huh?"

Hope was stunned for a moment and looked intently.

His flying knife, which failed, did happen to hit a wooden barrel.

And through the blood groove on the flying knife, kerosene began to flow out gurglingly. The speed was not slow, and there was already a puddle on the grass.

Can it still be like this?

Hope blinked, but as a mentor at this time, she couldn't behave too badly, so Hope simply nodded, with an expected expression, and said lightly: "That's right, just stay away Light the fire and let them cause chaos." As he said this, Hope also blushed a little.

Once upon a time, he was still a foolish young man who had nothing to say.

I didn’t expect that in just one month, I could learn so much.

Sure enough... does growth need to pay a price?

"But..." Ezio was a little confused: "In this case, wouldn't our stealth be meaningless? It is no different from starting a direct and aboveboard war."

"How come there is no difference? Think about it, there is so much kerosene here, it can burn for a long time if it is lit, and the kerosene fire is difficult to handle. This will add a lot of work to them. How can we harass them? After a few times, they will definitely not be able to bear it. After all, ordinary people’s physical strength is not as good as ours.”

"Anyway, our goal is to consume them. Whether it's morale, numbers, or supplies. Once the fire starts here, most people in the camp will definitely focus their attention on us, and a large number of soldiers will definitely gather here. If we have more soldiers here, there will definitely be fewer soldiers in other parts of the camp. In this way, it will be easier for brothers scattered in other areas to take action. This is called luring the tiger away from the mountain, and it is a noble spirit of sacrificing the self for the greater good. Do you understand?"

Hope spoke very clearly, and Ezio was also stunned.

Although it feels unreasonable, it seems to make some sense?

For others, Hope's approach is definitely a suicide, and the so-called luring the tiger away from the mountain is useless.

Because the person who lured the tiger away is not Wu Song, he may be eaten by the tiger soon, and then the alert soldiers will begin to search the temporary camp carefully.

In this way, it will alert the snake, and the possibility of the other brothers who act together tonight being discovered will be greatly increased.

But Hope is different. With their strength, they can resist for a long time when fighting against a large group of soldiers. Even if Hope opens fire, hundreds of people in this camp can be killed by Hope.

Only in this way can the purpose of attracting the enemy's attention be achieved and maintained for a long enough time.

As for why Hope did not just drive the steam giant to fight against these soldiers, Hope actually has his own ideas.

A camp of more than 500 people, it sounds like this number is not large.

But when you really face so many people, you will know that this is not a small number.

In real life, on a small road, five people walking towards you will give people a feeling of being crowded, let alone 500 living people.

Hope's physical strength is not unlimited. If you really choose to go to war with them during this period of time, there is only one possibility.

That is to kill all the 500 people here first, and then a large force not far behind will surround you during this period of time, and then start a war of attrition with more than 2,000 people against yourself.

If a real war of attrition between two thousand people is fought, and the other side also has powerful siege equipment such as large crossbows, catapults and kerosene barrels, it will definitely not be a good thing with my current strength.

Even if Chimera is summoned again, it is very likely that the other side will be trapped by the human sea, and then the other half of the people will be divided to surround and kill me and Ezio.

When the number of people reaches a certain level, it is really not as easy to deal with as imagined, and the other side will not be stupid enough to only fight you in close combat.

War is war, and I hope I have seen that great power in the steam world.

Many ants can bite elephants to death, and I hope I am not dazzled by the power I have gained at this time.

Otherwise, I am too arrogant, and sooner or later I will die in the hands of the little people I look down on.

For those who have doubts about the human sea tactics, you can look at the monster army of Thanos in Avengers III tore open the Wakanda barrier and beat a group of superheroes to fight the enemy.

However, this is still in a combat power range. If the combat power is stronger to the point of being crushed, the human sea tactics will be useless.

Although the hope is strong, it is not there yet. The abilities are still at the primary stage and have not yet been fully developed.
