Chapter 1425: Mist and Smoke Curling
Liang Youqing sensed a tinge of solemnity in the atmosphere, which wasn’t unexpected but deliberately created by Yue Qiyuan. At this moment, their situation was already very disadvantageous, and if their members were blindly confident without a clear understanding of their circumstances, the upcoming battle would be extremely arduous.
Burn the boats and sink the ships.
Since they had to do so, they must go to the battlefield with a great, solemn heart, with no turning back, leaving everyone with no retreat.
The smoke of the cooking squad had already been ignited, and due to the lack of professionalism of the fire-starters, thick smoke rolled around. Soon, the smoke drifted into the air, swayed by the wind, ascending higher and higher...
However, what slightly surprised everyone was that this bonfire ignited in more than one place but along the border river, with a fire every 100 meters.
In an instant, smoke rose into the air from the position of the 2nd battalion, along the riverbank.
Liang Youqing thought for a moment, then understood, saying, "This move is quite good; it can create obstacles for the enemy, making it difficult for them to accurately locate our exact position."
Chu Jiaojiao from the 1st battalion, if they wanted to attack, would surely need to choose an appropriate entry point. Once they couldn’t determine the actual deployment of our forces, it might slightly delay the enemy’s attack speed and rhythm and disrupt their judgment.
But if the enemy was going to attack, they would still attack. However, Yue Qiyuan’s action, while seemingly useless, actually bought us more time to prepare and increased our chances of victory.
Upon hearing Liang Youqing’s words, Yue Qiyuan suddenly said, "Liang Youqing, empty your military base now, move it out in about 30 minutes; can you do that?"
Liang Youqing was taken aback: "What?"
He thought he misheard and asked again, "Empty the entire military base I’m in charge of?"
