Outside the main camp of the Lund tribe, the Tanit warriors shouted and launched a new round of attack.

A small number of warriors equipped with Red King technology and equipment rushed forward with energy shields, and more warriors with ordinary swords and crossbows followed behind, swarming towards the defense line outside the camp like a tide.

When they entered the shooting range, a hail of arrows like locusts was immediately shot out from behind the defense line, arousing screams in the crowd.

The Tanit people immediately fought back, which also resulted in shouts of pain.

The wind was too strong, and the power of ordinary crossbows was greatly reduced, and the killing effect on both sides was not very good. Therefore, the Lunde tribe gave up the second round of shooting, but directly sent out infantry to fight with Tanit between the barrier and the road village. People started fighting.

The defense line of the Lunde tribe was jointly arranged by Xinhai and Niwa. Based on the favorable terrain, a full three-layer defense line was set up to cover all the passages that can enter the camp. The few passages that can be entered and exited have been sandbags at this time. Blocked, guarded by the tribe's elite warriors equipped with Red King technology.

Babel originally wanted to take advantage of her familiarity with the terrain to bypass the defense line, but was frustrated by hidden traps and ambushes. In the end, she could only grit her teeth and fight head-on.

However, the effect of strong attack is very poor.

Relying on the complete fortifications, Xinhai blocked the pass with only a few elites, and was able to withstand the Tanit people who were several times their own. Of the Tanit warriors who participated in the attack, only the elite ones at the front were often able to engage the enemy, while the ordinary warriors at the rear could only serve as the atmosphere group.

The fighting was very fierce, but it only looked fierce, and the casualties on both sides were not high.

The inexperienced Babel did not discover this until the third attack was repulsed.

In anger, she beheaded the commander in front on the spot, and adjusted her tactics, asking ordinary soldiers to carry more kerosene, axes, and shovels. She continued to destroy road villages, fill in trenches, and expand the attack front, and finally gradually regained the advantage.

Wei Lin, who was about to take a few steps out when she saw that the defense was effective, was paralyzed with fear when she saw this scene. She trembled and asked Xinhai for advice.

However, Xinhai looked calm, "Don't panic, mistress, fortifications were originally used to consume the enemy. If they want to destroy them, let them destroy them! After they have spent all their efforts to destroy the road stronghold, fill up the trenches, and How much energy do you have left to fight us?"

She glanced at the first line of defense, which was already in disarray, and took out a delicate Fontaine mechanical watch from her arms to take a look at it. She summoned a messenger and ordered: "Order Dilawar and Harul to attack. Withdraw this round of attacks, and join Kata and Sori's troops to retreat to the second line of defense to rest. Remember, don't forget to activate the reserved traps when retreating, and don't let the enemy take advantage of the situation to rush in!"

The ordering soldier took the order without hesitation. Not long after, the two red flags representing Dilawar and Harul began to move forward, and the fighting on the defensive line quickly became fierce.

About half an hour later, the messenger returned, saluted to Xinhai and reported: "Elders Dilawar and Harul have repelled the enemy. The Tanit people were defenseless. The ordinary soldiers only brought shovels and axes. They were defeated. We rushed and killed hundreds of corpses! Elder Kata and Elder Sori have retreated to the second line of defense, and our casualties are not heavy!"

The other tribe elders waiting here were overjoyed when they heard this and cheered loudly, but Xinhai just nodded indifferently.

Defensive warfare is her most proficient strategy. After all, she has been practicing for more than a year between Yalu Island and Tatasha, in the complex terrain where sea and land intertwined, facing such a powerful opponent as Kujo Sora.

She and Niyu had repeatedly deduced this defensive battle. Everything in front of them was expected, and there was nothing surprising.

What's more, she is the commander-in-chief of Haiji Island who once commanded thousands of troops. What big scene has she not seen? The two to three thousand men of the Lund tribe currently commanded to defend the four to five thousand men of the Tanit tribe were at best the scale of a local battle and did not arouse any interest in her at all.

But this scene looked like a god in the eyes of the tribal elders.

These little leaders who originally commanded hundreds to thousands of tribesmen had limited knowledge, and they only felt that the "Mother Nilu" in front of them was really full of wisdom and command, and she actually led a group of them like this. He withstood the powerful Tanit tribe and even gained an advantage!

The people of the desert are the most powerful, and the sea in their hearts at this time is undoubtedly the white jade pillar that holds the sky and the purple golden beam across the sea of ​​the entire Lunde tribe!

In contrast, Wei Lin, who could only hide in the tent and tremble, seemed...

For a time, more than one elder had other thoughts.

The Selgen tribe of Matron Nilu seems to be weak in strength? If such a capable but weak matron is chosen to lead everyone, wouldn't it be a hundred times better than the most powerful but greedy and incompetent Wei Lin?

For a time, the familiar elders couldn't help but start whispering to each other.

Xinhai didn't notice their little movements at all.

In fact, if we knew that the rabble of the Lunde tribe wanted to elect her as their mistress, our Inazuma Daikyojin and the current goddess of Kaiji Island would probably laugh out loud - a wage earner became the chairman of the board. , that is an inspirational story, but if the CEO of a Fortune 500 company becomes the owner of a small and micro enterprise, it is a joke from hell.

At this time, her mind was entirely focused on a hill not far away.

According to the plan, when the time is right, Niwa will send someone to light a bonfire on that mountain. After seeing the signal, she would use a comprehensive counterattack to try to hold back the main force of the Tanit tribe and create a gap for Niyu's follow-up plan. And the timing of the implementation of this plan completely depends on the time a person arrives on the battlefield...

As his mind turned, Xinhai turned his attention to the battlefield ahead.

The Tanites were retreating, and the Lundes wasted no time in retreating toward the second line of defense, taking the bodies of their wounded and comrades with them.

In the dim firelight, shadows formed by blood were all over the position, and the wails of the wounded covered up the roar of the sandstorm.

Suddenly, Xinhai remembered the battle when he first met Niyu.

That day, the setting sun was like blood, and wreckage was scattered all over Nazhi Beach, and the fields were full of blood.

A young boy with a somewhat immature face stood side by side with her. There was no joy of victory in his eyes as he stared at the battlefield, only deep compassion.

She still remembers his first words after a long silence.

It was those words that made her determined to stop the attack on the shogunate army against all opinions, dragging the civil war into a long confrontation.

"The worst peace is better than the best war."

She doesn't care about the war and peace of the desert people, because it is not her homeland, not her people.

But she cares about him, and he wants peace.

Taking a deep breath of rough air, Xinhai slowly turned around and gave orders to the elders behind him.

"Assemble all troops, wait for orders, and prepare to counterattack! The time to defeat Babel will come soon!"
