Mage with knife

"Elder Dick, what's wrong, outer cities No. 2 and No. 3 were attacked by an army of unknown forces and suffered heavy losses." Lijie ran over quickly.

"What kind of plane did they use to evacuate them?" Dick was so angry, "It's been two days, why are there still heavy losses in outer cities No. 2 and No. 3? Are they pigs? They evacuated slower than ordinary civilians?

"

"This..." Lijie was also aggrieved. This guy had already felt Dick's dissatisfaction with him.

"Where's Calder? Wasn't he asked to personally supervise the evacuation of the coastal outer city?"

"Elder Dick, Calder was assisting in the defense of City No. 2 and has died in battle."

"This bastard, I asked him to supervise the evacuation, but the evacuation was not done well, so why should I use him to help defend the city?" Dick was so troubled, "Where is Outer City No. 4?"

"The bird spies reported that City No. 4 was evacuated in a timely manner, and the enemy was completely evacuated."

Fortunately, I finally have a sensible outer city lord.

"Hey!" Dick said angrily, "Tell me about the losses and where the enemy hit."

"Thousands of residents who stayed in the outer cities of No. 2 and No. 3 were all killed in the battle in less than half an hour. Only less than a thousand people moved out sporadically in the first place. The enemy occupied the outer cities of No. 2 and No. 3, including No. 4 city.

and Bay City, there is no movement for the time being. The enemy's troops are gathering towards Bay City, Elder Dick, the enemy's next target is likely to be our coastal Trust City."

Yes, all the outer cities along the coast have been evacuated, leaving only Trust City at the end of the bay, which is close to the sea. Dick estimated that the enemy's attack style is probably caused by the Dragon Palace forces. Are the Dragon Palace forces only interested in the coastal area?

"How long will it take for the enemy to attack Trust City?" Dick asked.

"I can't say, one day at most." The Li family continued to report, "Elder Dick, the bird spies reported that the enemy has more than one high-level magician, and the outer city cannot withstand it at all... Judging from the appearance of the enemy, it should be

It’s a sea creature.”

Dick fell silent, and the spies were almost certain that the call came from the Dragon Palace forces.

Should we stick to it? Theoretically, it is necessary. This is a matter of principle for the Snow people.

"Evacuate! Everyone in Trust City has evacuated. They all gathered in City No. 13."

"What?" Butler Lijie was shocked.

"I said to evacuate, don't you understand? Idiot! The enemy has a lot of high-level magicians, so leaving more middle- and low-level practitioners is of no use. Except for the high-level practitioners, all of them must evacuate Trust City.

Hurry! Send the order quickly, I am the acting city lord, listen to me."

Lijie was confused, how could this work?

Even if it doesn't work, it has to work. Dick is the acting city lord appointed by Gurlitt himself. The Snow people are a very rule-abiding race.

"Yes!" Lijie answered with difficulty.

"Not only must all Trust City be evacuated, but all other outer cities must be evacuated, at least to the more inland areas of City Thirteen."

Trust City was moved, and the movement was vigorous. Although too many people did not understand it, and were even angry. However, the orders of the city lord's palace must be carried out.

The Bird Messengers have been dispatched, and many outer cities must continue to evacuate and stay away from the coastline.

"You are here!" In the City Lord's Mansion, in addition to Dick, Betty, Luo Xue, and the three thousand guards of the City Lord's Mansion, six high-level Snow cultivators from Trust City came here themselves.

"Elder Dick, why?" The senior cultivators were also from Snow and did not understand Dick's orders very well. Several of them looked at Dick with angry expressions on their faces.

"You six high-level practitioners are willing to fight?"

"Of course, Trust City is our root, and we are willing to fight for Trust City."

"As long as you are willing to fight, I thought you didn't go out with Lord Gurlitt..."

"The four of us were hunting in the Arctic sea at that time."

"The two of us were asked by City Lord Gullit to stay and help defend Trust City."

Dick accepted the reasons given by the six senior practitioners.

"Okay, let me ask a question. Are you willing to fight for Trust City, or are you willing to fight for the Snow people?" Dick asked.

The six senior practitioners were confused. What is the problem?

"Elder Dick, what does this mean?"

"If all the people are dead, what's the point of holding on to this trust city?" Dick remembered the words of the leader in his previous life, "You must remember this sentence, if you save the land and lose the people, everyone will lose; if you save the people, you will lose the land.

Gain it all!"

Isn't this the strategy of the Red Party during the War of Liberation? Leave the city to the Kuomintang, and I will destroy your effective forces. In the end, if the effective forces of the Kuomintang are gone, how can you defend the city?

I don’t understand! The six high-level practitioners still looked confused, but they just thought what Dick said was quite profound.

"Okay, if you don't understand, just listen to me. The simple reason is that I am stronger than you because my brain is smarter than yours." What Dick said is very irritating. If he is not smart, Dick will not be the acting city leader.

Isn’t it?

"There are still about 3,000 guards in the city lord's palace. After the people from Trust City and the outer city evacuate to City 13, they will organize a team of about 6,000 intermediate cultivators. In this case, I will divide these teams into three parts.

, the total number of advanced practitioners we have here now is nine, divided into three..."

No matter how you say it, Dick is the acting city lord, and the six high-level practitioners listened carefully to Dick's plan.

"The six of you are not smart. In this way, Luo Xue and Betty will be the team leader, and you all will be the deputy team leaders. Whatever they say, you just follow them and fight."

Dick is still using the strategy of IQ crushing, and he can't explain much to these brainless Snow people. As long as Betty and Luo Xue understand their strategic intentions. As for these six high-level Snow people, they can do

Just a good thug will do.

As for Dick, Luo Xue, and Betty, there is a telephony connection. Isn't it much more convenient than the radio station in the war years of the previous life?

"Is this possible?" The six high-level practitioners looked at each other.

"You just follow Luo Xue and Betty. Remember, this is an order. If you disobey orders and delay the war during the war, I will call you a traitor, and you will be a traitor."

Well, the six high-level cultivators were treated both softly and hard by Dick... Following Luo Xue, Betty went to City 13 to gather the team.

"Lijie, how is the evacuation from the city going?"

"Most have evacuated."

"Most? In other words, there are still people who are unwilling to evacuate?" Dick was really angry. City 2 and 3 did not implement the order thoroughly, resulting in the death of so many people; this time, Trust City held another meeting, and this

Bullshit Lijie Butler...

"Yes, Elder Dick, they are willing to fight for Trust City, even if they die." Li Jie also couldn't figure it out.

"What's your name!" Dick stopped talking to Butler Lijie and looked at the two captains of the city lord's palace guard on duty and asked.

"Zhang Liao, deputy captain of the city lord's palace guard, a low-level official!"

"Gao Shun, deputy captain of the city lord's palace guard, has a humble position!"

"Very good! You heard the plan that I and the six high-level practitioners just made. Are you willing to obey my orders?"

"I will absolutely obey Elder Dick's orders."
