46 Attacking the Reinforcements

After the meal, Ning Shi called for the Cat-man assassin Sonya.

“Send a few people to keep an eye on the third Prince Alesia’s whereabouts. Don’t keep a close eye on him to avoid being discovered. He should have gone to the Duke of Rose’s territory. If there are any big movements in her territory, be sure to let me know at once.”

“Yes, my Lord. Right now, externally, we have to find out the movements of the three empires. Internally, we also have to collect information on the remaining forces in Duohuang. If we send more people to the Duke of Rose’s territory, we won’t have enough manpower.”

“I request to recruit more people to expand the intelligence department.”

“No problem.” Ning Shi nodded. “In the streets we rule, we have a large number of captives and slaves. You can pick out some reliable people yourself.”

“Understood!” Sonya received the order and left.

“We’ve already taken control of 53 streets,” Snow Fog said. “The major forces of the remaining 65 streets, under the leadership of the Mercenary Alliance, have reached an agreement to collaborate and defend against us.”

“In order to resist us, these forces have each transferred their men to form a twenty-thousand-men army known as the Duohuang Freedom Battle Legion. They have also issued a statement to the public.”

“They claimed that no matter which street the extreme battle group attacked, the Duohuang Freedom Battle Legion would be the first to send reinforcements and defend, and even counterattack.”

Ning Shi smiled. “This public statement really feels like a bluff. That’s good too. We’re on a tight schedule, and if they’re all gathered together, we’ll be able to take them down in one wave!”

“How many soldiers do we have now?”

According to Ning Shi’s arrangement, Snow Fog was now in charge of all the warriors of the extreme battle group.

“I have 498 extreme wilderness barbarian warriors, 2000 gladiators, Forest Night Song Chamber of Commerce, more than 1000 elves from the elven longbow group, and 58 people from mage squads.”

“Additionally, we have 3000 captives and over 30000 slaves. I’ve selected over 3000 from them to join the battle legion.”

“Right now, the entire battle group has a total of 6600 people, of which, over 100 are intelligence personnel, and 6500 are combat personnel.”

“In terms of numbers, the extreme battle group only has 6500 soldiers. Compared to the Duohuang Freedom Battle Legion’s 20000 soldiers, there seems to be a huge gap.”

However, Ning Shi had always walked the path of an elite soldier. The warriors of the extreme battle group were all one-in-a-hundred elites. If they really fought, Ning Shi was confident that he could defeat the so-called Duohuang Freedom Battle Legion head-on.

Ning Shi stood up and said to Snow Fog, “Since the Duohuang Freedom Battle Legion likes to provide reinforcements, then let them experience the military wisdom of my hometown.”

“Snow Fog, let me teach you another phrase from my hometown.”

“Surround a spot and attack the reinforcements!”

Frank Street was one of the first streets in Duohuang and was once the trading center of the region.

As more and more streets were built, and since the new streets were not built with Frank Street as the center, Frank Street was gradually marginalized, and the prosperity of the past was short-lived.

As such, Frank Street did not have any of the core trades of Duohuang, such as magic cores, slaves, entertainment, and so on.

There was only one trade here, which was the slaughtering and selling of raw meat.

Whether it was the unique meat of the three great empires or the various types of magical beasts from the deserted north plains, they could all be found here.

The meat supply of the entire Duohuang and the international meat trade basically came from Frank Street.

Compared to the other bustling streets, Frank Street was not engaged in lucrative trade, but it was still a very important and strategic location in the war.

Ning Shi had his eye on this street right away.

Because they had to besiege the location and attack the reinforcements, Ning Shi led 500 extreme barbarian warriors and swaggered down Frank Street.

Ning Shi took the lead, and behind him was a group of tall and sturdy barbarians holding huge wolf-tooth clubs in their hands. They walked unhurriedly towards the Blood Chambers of Commerce’s encampment.

At this time, if there was a piece of background music like “Superstars in Troubled Times”, their mafia-life vibes would probably be even more intense.

Although many of the merchants on the street were burly butchers, at this moment, they all acted like little girls, hiding in their shops and closing their doors.

Those who were even more timid directly ran away.

As soon as Ning Shi walked into Frank Street, the ruler of the street, the president of the Blood Chambers of Commerce, Tai Rouzi, noticed him.

He reacted quickly and ordered the guards of the Blood Chambers of Commerce to use the defensive facilities and resources that had been prepared long ago to defend the place.

He rode on his horned dragon horse and rushed towards the Native Street.

The Native Street was the largest and most populated street in Duohuang. It was also the base of the Mercenary Alliance.

After Tai Rouzi rushed to the Mercenary Alliance’s base, he didn’t even greet anyone and directly rushed into the meeting hall!

“Lady Yelina, please send reinforcements! Requesting reinforcements!”

“The extreme battle group is currently attacking Frank Street. Please follow the plan prepared by the Duohuang Freedom Battle Legion and send out a gathering order to reinforce the Blood Chambers of Commerce!”

The 20000 men army of the Duohuang Freedom Battle Legion was not gathered together.

As the defending side, they could not gather their troops at will. Not only did it consume manpower and resources, but they also did not have a base large enough for 20000 people.

According to their plan, as long as any street in the alliance was attacked, the Chief Yelina would issue an order to assemble.

The forces of each street would send combat personnel that had been selected in advance to gather near the street that was attacked to stop the evil actions of the extreme battle group.

Yelina was the leader of the Mercenary Alliance, one of the original four forces of Duohuang. She was also the leader of the newly formed Duohuang Freedom Battle Legion.

She was a powerful-looking woman. She was more than 2 meters tall and 1.8 meters wide. She was a super fat woman.

After hearing Tai Rouzi’s words, Yelina stood up. Her entire body was like a mountain of flesh, blocking out the afternoon sun.

Surprisingly, her voice was very light.

“Tai Rouzi, don’t worry. How many people did the extreme battle group send?”

“It’s the Lord of the extreme wilderness, Ning Shi, and he was leading a group of extreme barbarians. There are about 500 of them.”

Tai Rouzi wiped his sweat and said hurriedly, “Lady Yelina, we can’t wait any longer. If we wait any longer, the headquarters of the Blood Chambers of Commerce will definitely be broken through!”

“Only barbarian warriors? Were there any gladiators and elven archers?”

“No, I didn’t,”

A handsome half-elf male suggested as he looked at Yelina affectionately, “My dear, Ning Shi likes to use ambushes. Last time, the Blood Chambers of Commerce and the Griffin Chamber of Commerce were tricked by him. Right now, only barbarians appeared on Frank Street. The other warriors of the extreme battle group must be lying in ambush in the surroundings.”

“If we rush over rashly, we’ll definitely fall into their trap.”

Hearing the half-elf’s words, Tai Touzi panicked. If he didn’t know that this half-elf was Lord Yelina’s gigolo, he would have stabbed him with his sword.

“Lady Yelina, we had an agreement when we formed the alliance. If you don’t issue the order to gather, what’s the point of the alliance’s existence?”

A cold glint flashed in Yelina’s eyes as she stared at Tai Touzi.

“I can give you the assembly order. You can go and gather reinforcements by yourself!”

Tai Rouzi looked at Yelina in disbelief. The main force of the Duohuang Freedom Battle Legion was the 4000-strong mercenary group of the Mercenary Alliance.

Without Yelina’s appearance, even if Tai Rouzi received the summoning order, he would not be able to get any reinforcements.

“Lady Yelina, don’t you understand the principle of mutual dependence? If you don’t help us this time, the alliance will fall apart!”

Tai Rouzi continued to persuade. The reinforcements of the Freedom Battle Legion were the only hope for the Blood Chambers of Commerce. He was not willing to give up.

However, Yelina ignored him and threw the assembly order at his feet.

Sensing Yelina’s determination, Tai Rouzi was in complete despair. He left the Mercenary Alliance’s base with a face full of grief and anger.

After Tai Rouzi left, Yelina said to the half-elf escort, “Avela, get ready. Let’s surrender to the extreme battle group.”

Avela was shocked. “Dear, we still have 4000 warriors and we can use the random people of the freedom battle legion as human shields. As long as we defend, we can still hold on.”

“The Lord of the extreme wilderness had killed His Highness Anjelo and destroyed the Ole Empire’s Griffin Chamber of Commerce in Duohuang. The people of the three empires would definitely not let him off.”

“As long as we can survive this period of time, the extreme battle group will definitely be crushed by the three great empires.”

Yelina sneered, the fat on her face jiggling.

“Human shields? Do you really think the freedom battle legion’s various powers are just human shields? They are just a group of stray dogs with their own ulterior motives.”

“If all the organizations in the freedom battle legion were united, we might have a chance of delaying the unification of the extreme battle group.”

“Unfortunately, who doesn’t have selfish motives?”

“The extreme battle group sent barbarians to attack Frank Street and used an ambush strategy. Our best response is to send a portion of our warriors to support the Blood Chambers of Commerce and leave another portion of our warriors to surround them.”

“When the ambush of the extreme battle group and our reinforcements are locked in a fierce battle, our soldiers who have surrounded them will attack from the side and catch them off guard.”

“We might have a chance of winning.”

“Unfortunately, no one was willing to be the sacrificial first wave of reinforcement. Everyone would prefer to be the backup for the counter-attack.”

“I’ve barely managed to gather 20000 men, when it comes to commanding the battle, those powers will not be completely obedient.”

Yelina’s chubby hand held onto Avela’s slender hand as she continued.

“It was your idea to form the freedom battle legion, and I supported it. Unfortunately, the effect was too weak. At this moment, there might already be some Chambers of Commerce in the alliance that have taken the initiative to side with the extreme battle group.”

“If we want to pick a side, we have to do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be a disaster. Lord of the extreme wilderness, Ning Shi, is a person who likes order. As long as we follow the his rules, we can still live well.”

“As for the pressure from the three empires you mentioned, as far as I know, Ning Shi has already joined the Brad Empire’s third Prince, His Highness Alesia. With the Brad Empire’s support, the extreme desolate Legion won’t fall in the short term.”

The Blood Chambers of Commerce’s base was currently covered in broken limbs and blood.

Even with the fortifications they had prepared in advance, the guards of the Blood Chambers of Commerce were either killed or injured in the face of the violent attack of the extreme barbarians. In the end, all of them knelt down and surrendered.

Ning Shi had already tried his best to slow down the speed of the attack, but unfortunately, the freedom battle group’ reinforcements had never arrived.

After waiting for another half an hour, there was still no movement from the reinforcements. Snow Fog gave up on the ambush and directly appeared.

Walking up to Ning Shi, Snow Fog asked doubtfully, “Boss, is this what you meant by attacking the reinforcement?”

Ning Shi’s face turned red. He couldn’t back down, so he said shamelessly, “There’s a saying in my hometown, ‘Even a wise man will make a mistake.’ My intelligence isn’t invincible. It’s normal for me to make a mistake once in a while.”

[Snow Fog admires your shamelessness and feels that the hope of revenge has increased by another point. Character intimacy +1. Current character intimacy level: 76.]

Ning Shi: “!!!”
