It was getting dark again, which was just enough time for Diao Si to move everything to Chidong Imperial City. Although the nights here are very short, a lot can still happen.
In order to grasp the enemy's movements, Diao Si used his refraction magic to observe the enemies in the north almost all the time. It was not until he returned to Chidong Imperial City that he noticed that the Hai Clan team was beginning to move.
Although he was extremely unwilling, it was still the worst outcome. The northern Hai Clan troops only left a small number of troops to continue to defend their northern defense line, and then led the two to three hundred thousand large troops to attack.
They took Diao Si's team too seriously. In order to annihilate the tens of thousands of human troops, they actually brought over almost all the sea tribe. This was a huge disparity in terms of numbers and combat effectiveness.
When it was getting dark, the dragon transport team that had been sent out earlier also flew back. This time in addition to transporting the artillery shells, they also brought a message to Diao Si. The artillery shells planned for the Chidong Empire operation had been used up. , if you want to take it again, you have to take the reserved shells.
The reserve of artillery shells is used for the defense of the Blazing Empire when necessary. This also includes some reserves of dry food. Unexpectedly, the reserve of artillery shells has been used in the operations of the Blazing Empire alone. This reserve is far from enough.
Because it was getting dark, even though the night here was short, Diao Si was still afraid that something might happen to this important dragon transportation team, so he left them in Chidong Imperial City.
Only then did the leader of the red dragons tell Diao Si that they had not eaten anything in order to complete his transportation mission, and now they were all a little hungry.
The dragon clan eats meat just like the sea clan, but on this battlefield, especially in Chidong Imperial City, there are corpses of sea beasts everywhere. There is no need to worry about this little food. Such a general recommended those dolphins to Diao Si Strange corpse.
This was a good idea. Diao Si immediately took the corpses of the dolphin monsters and briefly inspected them before letting the dragons try to eat them. I really didn’t expect that the dragon tribe found these dolphin meat to be very delicious. Seeing them eating it with such relish, Diao Si couldn’t help but take a bite.
It's really good. Because these corpses were taken out of the ocean not long ago, they haven't rotted yet. They just have a little salty smell, like salted fish. Or maybe, originally it didn't taste very good, but for Diao Si, who hadn't eaten meat for a long time, it was pretty good.
"Light a fire right away. I will let everyone taste this later." Diao Si said this, but the generals looked at each other one by one. None of them had the habit of eating meat.
"This is an order. Everyone must taste it. Those who eat dry food for a long time are not nutritious enough. Moreover, our food is almost exhausted. The dragons have not had time to transport food. They have to continue transporting ammunition."
After Diao Si said this, the generals immediately started to light a fire, but looking at the corpses of the dolphin monsters, they looked full of resistance.
After the generals squinted their eyes and tasted a few mouthfuls of the cooked meat, some of them seemed to be less resistant. Only then did Diao Si happily ask them: "Is it okay? Let all the generals in charge of you take a bite. This stuff is good. of."
But most of the generals still found it difficult to accept it. Diao Si knew that they were just holding back to please him. One of the generals couldn't help but vomited it out, and then looked at Diao Si worriedly.
This was mainly a psychological effect. When the generals next to them saw it, they felt like they were infected and felt like vomiting. However, they were all afraid that Diao Si would blame him, so they endured it one by one.
Diao Si sighed lightly, and then said to them: "If you have anything to say, just say it, because this will really become our food. If our battle is not over after eating all this, you He even had to eat the sea beast..."
Hearing what Diao Si said, another general couldn't help but vomited it out. Then she quickly knelt down and said to Diao Si: "I'm sorry, Emperor, but eating meat is really disgusting..."
Diao Si smiled reluctantly after hearing this, and then responded: "I'm not sorry. You don't need to be too nervous. This is just a normal reaction. If you want to vomit, you can vomit, but you have to continue eating after vomiting. I think you have to Get used to it, because I don't want to see you starve to death here."
As Diao Si said this, he took another bite. In fact, the taste was really good, especially after it was cooked. Seeing him tasting the meat of the dolphin monster so relaxedly, some generals directly covered their mouths, but some others still wanted to come over and eat.
"Great Emperor, our ancestors did not eat meat, so what is the difference between us and those cannibalistic sea tribes?" One of the generals in charge of the artillery said this. She is not a soldier but a mage. She has never tasted meat. Probably because of this knot.
After hearing this, Diao Si smiled and responded: "Of course there is a difference, don't you see it? What we eat is cooked meat. This meat is already like fruits and vegetables, not bloody at all."
When the mage general also closed his eyes and took a bite, Diao Si continued: "The difference between us and the Sea Clan is that we are more civilized than them. This has nothing to do with whether we eat meat or not. Moreover, when life and death are at stake, , it doesn’t matter whether it’s civilized or not.”
After letting the middle-level generals taste the cooked meat, Diao Si ordered everyone to rest. For fear of being discovered by the enemy, they did not turn on the lights. In such a dark environment, they were already so tired that they almost closed their eyes.
This sleep was very short-lived. After waking up, Diao Si immediately paid attention to the Hai tribe troops who were about to attack from the north. They did not move this night, but it seemed that they would set off again soon.
Then a general reported to him that when it was just about to dawn, the dragon transport team had flown back. They did not wake him up at that time so as not to affect his rest.
Diao Si observed the situation at Naxi Harbor again. It was still very quiet there. It was estimated that no more food would be transported from the ocean in a short time. In the place where Diao Si had taken away the food, there were some sea beasts looking for food.
After seeing this situation, Diao Si ordered the generals to dig out the remaining "Sea Beast Killer" and put it on the corpses of the dolphin monsters. This time, in order to avoid poisoning and feeding, Diao Si asked them to make the body parts very small, so that the sea beasts could not pick them out even if they knew there were thorns inside.
The large force of the Sea Tribe in the north is still continuing to move south. It may be because the team is too big and they are swarming over the mountains and plains, so their marching speed is not very fast.
As they got closer, Diao Si noticed something like a transport truck in the front and middle of the team through refraction magic. Logically speaking, the Sea Clan would not have a transport vehicle. It could only be a transport vehicle from the Chidong Empire, so the Sea Clan would also like to try using it.
Although there is still a certain distance, it won't take too much time for them to arrive here. In this short time, Diao Si really hopes to do something and properly deploy this battlefield, but looking at the enemies all over the mountains and plains, he I really don’t know if there are any other good ideas.
Let's rely on the iron walls of Chidong Imperial City and the powerful cannons. As long as we kill the big flying beasts, blade dragons and other enemies that can get over, it will not be easy for them to rush in.
So Diao Si issued an order to have the generals strengthen the city gates on both sides, especially the gate on the north that had been destroyed by the sea monster, to ensure that it would not be attacked by the sea tribe.
However, not long after this order was placed, the sound of fighting suddenly came from the north city gate. This suddenly touched Diao Si's nerves, and he immediately drifted over.
It turned out to be those damn sea monsters. They had already taken action outside the city gate. If Diaosi had not ordered those soldiers to reinforce the city gate just now, they would not have been discovered.
This is really too easy. How could this sea monster suddenly appear at this city gate? The enemies in the north must have given them orders as early as yesterday, and they sneaked here overnight to perform their tasks. It seems that the enemies in the north must have known that they had abandoned the new city and returned to Chidong Imperial City. (To be continued)
