Golden Summoner

With the arrival of the old man, the entire Xianghe City was like a clockwork machine, and began to revolve rapidly around the battle to regain Xinchuan.

The returning soldiers of the previously disbanded 87th Army began to reorganize into the new 87th Army. The number of the new army soon exceeded 10,000.

The Yizhou Town Demon Guard was also formed again.

The newly formed New First Army and the Demon Suppressing Guards began to mix.

The so-called mixed formation is also the most effective combat method for destroying monsters that Xia Pingan and the others have summarized in practice, using the cooperation of summoners and troops.

Generally speaking, a combat team of about a hundred people, composed of two to three summoners and a company, is the most effective combat organization for dealing with monsters in urban street fighting and in the wild.

In such a 100-man combat team, there is a platoon of soldiers equipped with rocket launchers, a platoon of soldiers equipped with grenade launchers and squad machine guns, and a platoon of soldiers responsible for battlefield support. At the same time, the sniper team is equipped with rune bullets, and the summoner Combined with the abilities of the warriors, the monsters entrenched in the city can basically be completely restrained.

Such a hundred-man combat team can advance and retreat flexibly, and can be divided or reconciled. When encountering small groups of monsters, they can be annihilated individually. When encountering large groups of monsters, they can fight together. They can also cooperate with each other, which is most efficient and convenient.

Three days after the old man arrived in Xianghe City, a total of 118 hundred-man combat teams were formed. Then the old man led the team directly out of Xianghe and drove to Matie Town, officially starting the battle to regain Xinchuan.

Xianghe City and Yunwanshan Base have been connected, and the roads in these two places have been restored, becoming the rear area of ​​Matie Town.

People from all directions who had previously been hiding in various places continued to gather towards Xianghe City and Yunwan Mountain Base.

The old man was the commander-in-chief of the battle, and Xia Pingan was left by his side.

Xia Pingan, who is by the old man's side, is still the legion priest of the 87th Legion. To a certain extent, Xia Pingan has become the old man's assistant. Because Xia Pingan has the ability of remote viewing, and the old man likes to be close to the battlefield and command the battle on the front line, so Xia Pingan became the old man's battlefield clairvoyant, and could provide him with relevant battlefield information and dynamics at any time.

In addition to following the old man as a clairvoyant, Xia Pingan's other responsibility is to produce elixirs and rune bullets.

The fresh corpses of the monsters obtained on the battlefield were basically sent to Xia Ping'an in exchange for the First God Pill, Divine Power Pill and Rune Bullets.

The sacrificed soldiers were also sent to Xia Pingan, who held a requiem ceremony.

The front lines outside Matie Town continue to advance towards Xinchuan City, several miles and more than ten miles a day.

Because there are a steady stream of summoners and soldiers of the 87th Legion coming from all directions, and people are constantly asking to join the army, the number of hundred-man combat teams that the old man can command not only does not decrease in the day-to-day battles, but is gradually increasing. Every day, a newly formed combat team will join the battlefield.

The initial 118 hundred-man combat teams turned into 131 within a short period of time.

Xia Pingan witnessed with his own eyes that the battlefield situation in Xinchuan was turning around bit by bit.

The situation was completely different. One less monster was killed on the battlefield, and the number of monsters on the battlefield became smaller and smaller as the battle progressed. However, the number of demon-suppressing guards and soldiers of the 87th Legion increased with each battle.

A week after the old man came to Matie Town, a total of 137 combat teams of 100 people, more than 2,000 various vehicles, plus more than 3,000 returning soldiers and more than 20,000 militia teams pushed the front to the outskirts of Xinchuan City, completing the attack on Xinchuan City area surrounded.

The subsequent battle became another replica of the battle in Xianghe City. Those imbecile monsters did not create any miracles.

More than 140 combat teams of 100 people invaded Xinchuan from seven directions, advancing step by step, clearing out monsters in towns, streets, and buildings one by one, constantly pushing the defense line forward. Those monsters, under the siege of such an iron barrel formation, completely became caged beasts.

When the phantom monsters were killed by rune bullets and summoners as soon as they appeared, those magic fire spiders, magic liquid spiders and magic rats organized several breakouts. Under the attack of modern weapons, they all ended in failure.

This time, the streets, underground shelters and garages of Xinchuan City were filled with the corpses of those monsters.

On February 26, 2020, 19 days after the old man returned to Yizhou, Xinchuan, the capital of Yizhou Province, was restored.

…

The urban area of ​​Xinchuan was in an uproar, and the entire urban area was filled with gunshots fired into the air.

When the liberation of Xinchuan was announced, the excited soldiers and militiamen inside and outside Xinchuan City took their firearms and fired into the sky.

At this time, in the evening, Xia Pingan accompanied the old man back to the Yizhou Provincial Order Committee's base in Xinchuan.

After a whole winter, the base of the Yizhou Provincial Order Committee has changed again. The collapsed building is still collapsed, and the big crater left by the fire meteorite is still there.

But among the ruins of the buildings, the broken brick walls and the collapsed steel structures, pieces of vigorous weeds emerged from the ground tenaciously and vigorously, and squeezed through the gaps between the stones and steel. out.

The old man held a dragon-headed cane with both hands, like an old man returning to his hometown. Looking at the ruins, he said with some emotion, "I never realized that the grass here can grow so vigorously..."

"Has the old man discovered that these weeds are just like people? Human vitality is actually no worse than these weeds!" Xia Pingan stood behind the old man and said softly.

"Yes, on the land covered by the blood of monsters and ice and snow, stronger grass will surely grow in spring..." The old man turned his head and said to Xia Pingan with a serious look, " Thank you for your hard work these days!"

"I just did what I was supposed to do!"

"Recovering Xianghe and Xinchuan, among all the summoners, you have the first credit. It can be said that you have the most credit. Do you know why I have never promoted you?" The old man suddenly asked.

Xia Pingan smiled bitterly, "Because old man, you want to arrange more important errands for me. Now that Xinchuan has been recovered, the monsters in other places in Yizhou Province will not be able to hold on for too long. Old man, you can tell me now, am I staying in Yizhou?" In just a few days!”

The old man took a deep look at Xia Pingan, "Have you already guessed it?"

"I've guessed a little bit, but I still don't know what the errand is!"

The old man took a long breath and said, "Come for a walk with me..." After saying that, the old man turned around and walked step by step towards the road outside. Xia Pingan also followed the old man.

"Do you know how many people have died in Dayan Kingdom from October 28 last year to today?" The old man walking on the road suddenly asked Xia Pingan a question in a low voice.

Xia Pingan shook his head.

"The initial estimate of the number of victims in Dayan is more than 110 million..." The old man said an extremely heavy number, with a hint of hoarseness and trembling in his voice, "The total number of victims in all countries around the world exceeds 900 million. Our planet, the human beings in this world, are like chickens and ducks locked in cages and can be slaughtered at will. If the number of human deaths since the invasion of space is added together, the number exceeds 33 billion. Space If the invasion is not ended, our children and grandchildren will never be able to escape this tragic fate..."

These two numbers made Xia Pingan feel heavy.

In the midst of the disaster of the past few months, these two figures are too depressing.

"How to end the space invasion?" Xia Pingan asked.

As the old man walked, he asked Xia Ping'an a question, "Do you believe that there are gods and demons in this world? Do you believe that there is a kind of power that transcends the world and the limits of human imagination, and a kind of will that is above everything? "

"I believe it!" Xia Pingan said directly. Seeing the old man looking at him, Xia Pingan added, "Actually, I have always been a theist. In front of the creation of the universe, we are too small, and we are not alone!"

The old man continued to ask, "Have you ever thought that the so-called space invasion does not occur naturally, but is caused by some force that exceeds our understanding?"
