Chapter 265: Speed is the Essence of War (Dear readers, asking for monthly tickets at the end of the month)

"Hey!"

Zhang Su's expression tightened. Since his vision had improved, he hadn't had a challenge for a long time, and the sudden subtitle made him very surprised and excited.

And this time it was particularly interesting. Chen Hanzhou was standing about a meter in front, leaning against the wall smoking a cigarette while studying a mechanical prosthetic limb. At this moment, he was naturally motionless, and even the smoke was frozen in the air, forming a unique shape, which was very wonderful.

Zhang Su reached out to touch Chen Hanzhou, but there was a wall of air blocking him, and he couldn't touch him at all, so he quickly withdrew his thoughts and studied the options.

"What the hell is submission? Impossible... As for annihilation, hmm..."

From the bottom of his heart, Zhang Su was unwilling to commit acts of extermination. For example, in the battle with the group from Beitazi Camp, it was impossible to kill all the old, weak, women, and children who posed no threat at the end, unless he sensed a crisis; then he would certainly not show mercy.

It was no longer the situation when the disaster first broke out, walking on thin ice and trembling with fear. Now he was the leader of a faction, and growth and expansion required manpower to support it; otherwise, no matter how elite the personnel were, they would always be at their wits' end when facing a large faction.

The situation of the Azure Dragon Legion was very special. Not only was there a significant proportion of old, weak, women, and children inside, but there was also the science department he had been thinking about! According to the situation Xin Qi revealed, the science department was not only developing zombies for war purposes, but there was also a medical department; these were all forces currently lacking in Tianmayu.

Even without a concrete execution, he could be certain that it wouldn't be too difficult to conquer the logistics department and the science department, but the core members and combat department of the Azure Dragon Legion would certainly not be so easy to conquer!

"Does partial conquest count as conquest?"

Zhang Su was very doubtful, but he didn't have much time to delay. Watching the countdown tick down to just over ten seconds, he made a decision in his mind.

"A, Conquest!"

Although the difficulty was high, it was not impossible. The apocalypse was full of challenges, people's hearts were wavering, and many things were hard to say. Let's fight for it! 【Proportion of conquering the Azure Dragon Legion: A. 80%, B. 60%, C. 40%】

"Eh?" Zhang Su's eyes lit up. The second option directly answered his previous doubts! "According to that kid Xin Qi's words just now, the core members of the Azure Dragon Legion are only twenty-something people, accounting for less than 10%. Looking at it this way, the best result could be taking 80%!"

"However... wanting to conquer a faction cannot be done with just talk. There will definitely be conflicts with the Azure Dragon Legion's combat department. What if this group of people is unwilling to compromise?"

Everything Zhang Su envisioned was based on winning the battle, because if he failed, everything would be empty talk, and there would be no need to consider it.

After thinking it over, Zhang Su finally felt that if he could keep 60% of the Azure Dragon Legion, it would already be quite good, so he said: "B!"

【Estimated completion time: A. 10 days, B. 30 days, C. 80 days】

"Hey... a giveaway question!" Zhang Su was immediately happy when he saw the options, because in his view, solving the Azure Dragon Legion was imminent; the longer it dragged on, the more problems there would be.

"A, 10 days!"

While making the choice, he silently recited in his heart: Take the barracks within ten days! 【Challenge generated: Conquer 60% of the Azure Dragon Legion members within ten days, Difficulty: A, Timer started: 239:59:59, 0/342】

"What a pity, it was almost three A's. I wonder what level of challenge three A's would be. Hmm? This last number..."

"No, this is too amazing. The number of people in the Azure Dragon Legion is displayed directly. Haha, uh, this number is quite different from the number of people Xin Qi said... I guess it subtracted the twenty-seven people who died just now. Let me calculate... 3x6=18, 4x6=24, uh, that is to say, only more than 205 people need to turn over a new leaf to complete the task?"

"Hmm... will the dead people be counted in?"

"Brother Su, you're out? How is it? The three guys are very obedient, right? I didn't hear any movement in the house."

While Zhang Su was still pondering the challenge, Chen Hanzhou noticed Zhang Su walking out of the room, turned around, and asked.

"They're obedient even when death is imminent. Go notify everyone to gather at the Little Lucky Restaurant!"

Chen Hanzhou's expression became serious. Holding a meeting at this time must mean there was something extremely important. He nodded and walked downstairs while notifying everyone via walkie-talkie.

In five minutes, the uninjured personnel gathered in the restaurant. This place was always used for meetings and had become a customary conference room.

"Tonight's battle was very successful, but I am sorry to tell everyone that we have no time to rest. According to the situation I just learned, the Azure Dragon Legion already knows our specific location. If the grain-collecting team doesn't return, they will send people south to investigate the situation tomorrow or the day after, so we must do something before then." Zhang Su looked at everyone, then informed them of the situation regarding the Azure Dragon Legion he had learned from Xin Qi to help them make a judgment.

"Then according to that kid's words, they'll only send one or two squads? That's easy to handle!" Lu Yubo was the first to speak, saying: "If they dare to come, we'll kill them again just like we did tonight!"

"That's right, Brother Lu's proposal is very powerful! Scare them, let them know we aren't soft persimmons to be squeezed!" Zhao Dezhu immediately agreed.

"Peace is fought for, not begged for!"

Following closely, some others also felt that although Lu Yubo's method was rough, it was very feasible.

A great victory brought unprecedented confidence to the people of Tianmayu.

Yu Wen, however, frowned and shook his head, saying: "Forgive me for pouring cold water, but I think Little Lu's proposal is inadvisable!"

Everyone looked at the weary-looking Yu Wen.

Yu Wen knew everyone was waiting for the rest, pushed up his glasses, and said: "The Azure Dragon Legion has a large family and many people. It is absolutely impossible for them all to be good-for-nothings, otherwise, the Azure Dragon Legion could not have developed!"

"Wanting to repeat the same trick is not to say it's completely impossible, but I'm afraid it will require paying a more painful price. My opinion is..."

Speaking of this, Yu Wen paused, looked at Zhang Su, and said solemnly: "Mr. Zhang, speed is the essence of war!"

Zhang Su's eyes lit up. After learning that the Azure Dragon Legion would send people out to investigate, his first thought was to attack directly, but because his companions had just experienced a battle and were now very tired, he was afraid that morale would be low for a long-distance raid.

He hadn't expected Yu Wen to think the same way! "Teacher Yu has spoken my thoughts!"

Zhang Su took over the conversation, stood up, and said: "The Azure Dragon Legion considers itself the king in the Qingxian area, squeezing supplies from the surrounding large and small survivor camps. They certainly didn't expect that all three squads would be wiped out!"

"Before the Azure Dragon Legion headquarters sends people out to investigate, we will directly disguise ourselves as the Azure Dragon Legion's grain-collecting team, mix into the barracks, and catch them off guard!"

After hearing Zhang Su's arrangement, everyone had wonderful expressions, feeling their brains shrinking; some even got goosebumps.

What kind of operation was this? It was daring...

"Su, Brother Su, are you planning to take advantage of the victory and attack directly to the Azure Dragon Legion headquarters?"

Wu Lue asked stutteringly, full of disbelief.

The rest of the people looked at Zhang Su with doubtful eyes, only a very few showed solemn expressions.

In the eyes of most people, passive defense was the posture of the weaker side. Compared with the Azure Dragon Legion, Tianmayu was at a disadvantage in terms of manpower and weapons, so they should naturally act cautiously.

Attacking into the opponent's lair was too radical.

Zhang Su nodded and said: "That's right. We cannot sit and wait for death. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Drive the grain-collecting team's cars, take those prisoners, take 003, and let them taste the bitter fruit they brewed themselves!"

"Damn!" Zhao Dezhu shouted, saying: "Big brother, we can also take a batch of petrified-skin zombies, and when the time comes, set a fire to it. We'll use their own methods to treat them, hahaha!"

"Completely eradicate future troubles. Let's do it, Brother Su, when do we set off!"

Wang Xin clenched his fists and asked.

Everyone's fighting spirit was mobilized, and the crowd was excited.
