Chapter 101, passive response
Cody is dead.
He killed the last two warlocks.
Thaddeus' eyes were splitting.
He felt that he didn't do enough, which was why Coady and his team had to fight to wipe out everyone in the battle.
They made detours together and launched the attack according to the agreed situation. They successfully completed the mission, but their side was blocked. The five magicians were all done by Cody’s people...
What am I doing?
Objectively speaking, Thaddeus certainly played a role in containing and creating opportunities, and also killed many armed thugs who were guarding the magicians. It cannot be said that it had no effect at all, or even a great deal.
However, looking at Cody's side, there is a gap in comparison.
He wished he could just rush forward like Cody, even if he died, he would kill more enemies. Only in this way can letting go dispel the suffocation in his heart.
But in the end, reason prevailed in his mind.
He waved his hand and retreated with the team.
There are five warriors beside him, and together with himself, they can form two combat groups. When his comrades on the front launch an attack, his men will firmly nail the enemy's retreat route.
Thaddeus stared at the enemies with hatred on his face.
I want you all to die here!
……
Gu Hang heard about Cody's heroic deeds from Oceana.
At first, I tried to imitate the military system in my memory, in order to be able to organize the prisoners as quickly as possible.
In terms of military skill level, he has the function of [Military Card]. With some gifts, he can be trained quickly, but it takes time to cultivate loyalty.
Now, he was not only pleased that his previous arrangement was effective, but also heartbroken that he had lost a loyal soldier.
But his sacrifice was valuable.
According to the information Gu Hang has obtained so far, after a total of six grain transportation lines were attacked, four of them have turned the corner. There was some food loss, but not too much.
As for the other two places where there was no news yet, the phoenixes had already rushed there. After Oceana asked him for help, he turned around and found the group of Space Marines and asked them to help.
When it comes to fighting cultists, the Phoenix's fanaticism is probably no worse than that of the Sisters of the Lily of Mercy.
No matter how many or how strong the enemies are in those two places, if six Space Marines divide into two teams and stand there, the problem will definitely be solved.
In terms of military strength, they are worthless.
Although the number of troops under Gu Hang's command is not large, they are elite enough and are more than enough to attack those cultists.
The battle at Norris Factory had clearly demonstrated this.
Gu Hang guessed that the power that the cultists could mobilize was not too much. Their total investment in attacking food transportation routes may only be seven to eight hundred people, and the number of warlocks among them is only about twenty.
This power is much less than what they invested in the Norris factory. On the one hand, the personnel and strength of this group of cultists are not endless. Sixty or seventy of their core members died in the past two days. Those believers who can release storm magic cannot be easily cultivated.
In addition to the core magicians, they mobilized nearly 5,000 people in the factory and invested 700 to 800 people in attacking the grain transport team. They want to control so many people, whether it is through some evil brainwashing method, or whether they have so many fanatical believers through ordinary preaching, there will always be a price to pay.
Obviously, they should have almost exhausted their accumulated energy.
Otherwise, if they can double their input this time, at least four of the six grain transport teams will be destroyed. Then Gu Hang was really in big trouble.
The most annoying thing about that group of guys is that they are hiding in a city with a population of one million and their grassroots control is particularly weak. It is difficult to catch them in a short time.
The failure at Norris Factory may also have clearly taught these cultists a lesson that head-on confrontation is never advisable.
These guys are causing trouble secretly, but I can only deal with it passively.
This is not enough.
Gu Hang felt that those cultists must have a back-up plan.
Moreover, this back-up man must be at the fifty food distribution points.
The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. After experiencing simultaneous attacks and failures on six transportation routes, those cultists should be able to wake up and know that eating fat in one go is unrealistic.
Although two consecutive failures caused them heavy losses, their remaining strength would be very troublesome if they targeted a few food distribution points and launched attacks and incited the people while they were queuing up to get food.
Gu Hang decided to assign political commissars to all the companies in the prisoner-of-war camp. Each food distribution point is directly assigned to a company!
Come! Let me see if you can, after concentrating your strength, destroy an entire company without even being able to get support!
Of course, Gu Hang can also stay awake. He does not think that all companies with political commissars can reach the level of Cody's company.
In fact, whether it was Coady or Thaddeus, judging by Yan Fangxu, who was in charge of prisoner training, they performed best among all the companies.
Yan Fangxu could only pick out seven teams of similar level.
Otherwise, if a group of prisoners who had just been disarmed and locked up for a short period of time were able to divide their troops into companies, how could they be able to win a tough battle like the one Coady and the others encountered with considerable casualties?
It's a good thing if you don't put in any effort, but if something bad happens, it's very possible to break up and run away with a gun. How can you fight people to death despite casualties like now?
But despite this, in the current situation where there was a real shortage of people, Gu Hang still decided to call them out.
Even if they are not as brave as Coady's company, or even far worse, as long as they can ensure that they can reliably execute orders during battle and not escape too easily, that is enough.
They only need to hold on for a while, and a steady stream of reinforcements will soon arrive at the scene, including even patrolling Space Marines.
With such an arrangement, the safety of food distribution should be greatly guaranteed.
The rest is a special strike.
Just coping is too passive. In addition to defending, you must also attack with heavy punches.
In this regard, the Sisters of the Lily of Mercy brought him good news.
