Chapter 123 Defending Tieshan Town
Zhuo Heng's intention was to sacrifice the entire town, cover Li Mu and the others' departure, and safely return the crystals to the Rongcheng fortress.
For a place as big as Tieshan Town, once the large-yield thermobaric bomb explodes, there will be no survivors in the entire town.
If there were no martial monks like Li Mu, Li Changhe and others in Tieshan Town, as well as Taoist monks like Xu Rusong, they might not even be able to prevent the Great Ape King from entering Tieshan Town.
"Li Mu, what do you think?" There was silence in the headquarters for a while, then Li Changhe looked at Li Mu and asked.
This is not an easy decision to make. Whether it is to defend Tieshan Town or to use Tieshan Town to attract the Great Ape King and cover Li Mu's return to Rongcheng, the risks of both plans are very high.
"Hold Tieshan Town and wait for help!" Li Mu said without hesitation.
"I object. We can't hold Tieshan Town at all, and it's unrealistic to expect ground support from Rongcheng. Only by quietly evacuating with the spar can we have a chance!"
Luo Fusheng said directly.
After finishing speaking, Luo Fusheng paused and continued, "Li Mu, I am not targeting you. You are indeed stronger than me. It is natural that you should get the first place in the trial. I have nothing against it now, but I am determined to defend Tieshan Town." The risk is too great. According to the current situation, once the Great Ape King joins the war, we will not be able to defend Tieshan Town!"
"The strength of the Great Ape King is around the second level of a Grandmaster. Even if Principal Li and I try our best, we can only delay it for a while at most. The two of us are no match for it!"
Xu Rusong said solemnly.
The command room quickly fell into discussions. Everyone was arguing endlessly. Some people supported the defense, and some felt that it would be better to let the martial monks and Taoist monks risk leaving the town. Even if only one box of crystals could be sent to Chengdu in the end, it would still be better. completely annihilated.
"The Great Ape King is missing now. There are bird demons hovering in the sky during the day, and the world is dominated by monsters at night. What if we leave Tieshan Town and encounter a large number of monsters outside the town, or are found by the Great Ape King? "
Li Mu suddenly asked.
As soon as Li Mu asked this question, the command room suddenly became quiet.
If you want to bypass the blockade of the snake monster and enter Chengdu from another direction, this is definitely not something that can be done in a day or two. On the way, you will encounter monsters besieging you, or even encounter the great ape king. The possibility of the monster snake king is too great .
Once you encounter the Great Ape King or the Demonic Snake King in the wild, there is really only one way to die. If you encounter a monster with a strength equivalent to the second or third level of a Grandmaster in the wild, even Li Mu cannot escape unless he teleports directly into the Star Destroyer. ship, hiding inside the Star Destroyer.
"If we decide to defend Tieshan Town, then we will discuss it and make as many arrangements as possible to defend Tieshan Town!" Zhuo Heng saw that the others were silent and nodded to Li Mu.
Zhuo Heng himself is also very inclined to stick to Tieshan Town. After all, he can still occupy the advantageous location in Tieshan Town, but if he really leaves Tieshan Town, it will only depend on luck.
"The cloud explosive bombs will never be used until the last moment, but the remaining anti-tank mines can be used!" Li Mu nodded and said directly.
"How are you going to use those landmines?" Zhuo Heng asked.
"Set up three places in the town, and place about a hundred anti-tank mines in each place. Once the great ape king enters the town, try to lure it to the place where the mines are buried!"
Li Mu said.
"Okay, this is a good idea!" Zhuo Heng's eyes lit up and he nodded immediately.
Just place a hundred anti-tank mines one next to each other. As long as the great ape king enters the minefield, detonating the anti-tank mines will definitely be enough for it to eat even if it doesn't kill it.
Laying one hundred anti-tank mines in three places is already the limit. If five hundred are buried in each place, these mines will explode in the town at the same time, and the people in the town will not have to think about their lives.
"You can discuss other things. I still have something to do and I need to go out of town!" After discussing the three places to bury the landmines, Li Mu stood up and said.
"What are you doing out of town?" Mo Lingyu asked strangely.
"Collect some demon pills, I can use them!" Li Mu said and walked outside the headquarters.
"I will go with you!"
Mo Lingyu followed immediately.
Li Mu decided to stick to Tieshan Town not only because he felt it was more advantageous to stick to Tieshan Town, but also because he still had backup in the Star Destroyer. He just needed some time. As long as there was enough time, he could stay in Tieshan Town and stick to it. Going to Rongcheng Fortress to provide support again is the best choice.
It is too risky to choose to leave Tieshan Town now.
"Li Mu, why do you want demon pills? Although there are many demon pills out there, these demon pills are only valuable if they are brought back to Rongcheng Fortress!"
Mo Lingyu said.
There are at least thousands of monster corpses in the minefield outside Tieshan Town. Even if you count those that were completely burned by thermobaric bombs, and the demon pills that were blown up by anti-tank mines, I am afraid that the intact demon pills are at least One or two thousand can also be collected, which is a huge fortune.
However, collecting these demon elixirs is a long process. Generally, someone will collect the corpses of demon beasts and demon elixirs after the war is over, if humans are the victors of that war.
The war is far from over now, and generally no one will collect demon pills.
But those demon pills are very important to Li Mu, especially in this case. It doesn't matter whether the demon pills are worth money or not. The key is that they can improve the strength of martial monks.
In the memory of those thirty years, Li Mu later came into contact with many secrets as he grew up, including some things about martial monks using demon pills to practice.
The demon pill is the condensed power of the demon beast. There is no difference in power in essence. The demon power of the demon beast and the energy of the martial monks both come from spiritual energy. As long as the demon energy in the demon pill can be refined, You can use demon pills to practice, and that kind of practice is much faster than normal martial arts monks.
However, in memory, if you want to completely refine the demonic energy in the demon pill without leaving any hidden dangers, you need an alchemy master to do it. Most people can't do it without the cooperation of an alchemy master, but Li Mu doesn't care, because he has Star Destroyer The ship can directly use technological means to remove the evil spirit.
"Those demon elixirs are useful to me. I need some demon elixirs from the Flying Red Tiger or the Shadow Blood Cat. The demon elixirs from those beast-level demons like the Iron Back Wolf are useless!"
Li Mu said, and then he signaled to the soldiers in the heavy machine gun bunker and jumped directly over the three-layer protective wall on the edge of the town.
"Okay, let me collect it for you first!"
Mo Lingyu nodded and followed Li Mu directly out of Tieshan Town.
Li Mu controlled the minefield to be temporarily closed. Now the monsters outside the minefield have basically followed the Great Ape King and disappeared. This area is relatively safe for the time being, just right for action. Soon after, Zhuo Heng sent soldiers to take advantage of the opportunity. With the monsters gone, part of the minefield was replenished with mines.
However, they still need to be deployed in Tieshan Town, and the inventory of anti-tank mines is running low, so the minefields cannot be replenished this time.
