Volume 4: Biochemical Attack Chapter 959 Return to Headquarters
After hearing Li Jiu's words, the secret room suddenly fell silent.
Zhao Wu's reaction was better, because he had a premonition of the future direction of the war, which was likely to be the final defeat of the alliance. Therefore, he did not show any surprise at the news solemnly announced by Li Jiu.
However, everyone else at the scene, even Doug and the other two, could not help but stare in amazement.
Will the alliance eventually be defeated or even completely disbanded?
This news was absolutely a shocking event for them.
Especially Zhao Xue, after hearing what Li Jiu said, she couldn't help but exclaimed on the spot, saying that this was absolutely impossible.
You know, her father is the mayor of Shoushan City and an important government official of the alliance.
Therefore, if there was any sign of impending defeat in the alliance, she should have received the news earlier than Li Jiu, the mercenary leader.
In addition, from a personal emotional point of view, as the daughter of an important member of the Alliance government, she naturally does not want to see the Alliance being defeated.
"Brother Jiu, how do you know this news? Could it be that the Defender Empire has developed some super weapon on the battlefield outside?" Lin Zhen on the side asked in shock.
"You don't have to worry about the source of this news. If you believe me, just treat it as real news that is about to happen." Li Jiu shook his head and said.
"The captain is right. I also think this is likely to happen in the near future!" Zhao Wu said calmly, "Don't doubt it. Although I was just a small captain in the alliance army, my understanding of the battlefield outside is definitely no worse than anyone else. According to my judgment, the defeat of the alliance is only a matter of time!"
After hearing Zhao Wu's addition, the shock on the others' faces eased a little.
If only Li Jiu said this, it could be considered as his guess, but if Zhao Wu also said this, it would be even more convincing.
"Well, you are surprised because you don't have a thorough understanding of the current situation of the alliance. In fact, as far as I know, there are already many signs of defeat in the alliance's territory. Anyone who is attentive will be able to see this." Li Jiu said slowly: "Believe me, I am definitely not the only one in the alliance who thinks so. Many people have seen the signs of the alliance's imminent defeat. This can be seen from the fact that prices in the alliance have begun to fluctuate significantly. However, even though many people have seen the signs of the alliance's defeat, there are more people who would rather believe that before that day really comes, the alliance still has hope of turning defeat into victory."
"In addition, the ultimate purpose of me telling you this news today is actually to tell you that if the alliance is really defeated one day, then before that, what preparations should we make!" Li Jiu added.
"Captain, do you mean... to start preparing for our future retreat now?" Zhao Wu's heart moved, and he said solemnly.
"A way out?"
When the others heard this, they were slightly stunned and a little surprised.
"That's right!" Li Jiu smiled calmly and nodded, "In fact, whether the alliance will be defeated or not, we should prepare some retreat routes for ourselves in advance. It is just a precautionary measure and there is no harm in it."
Hearing this, everyone nodded thoughtfully.
On this point, everyone agreed with Li Jiu's point of view.
After all, everyone knows that even in the past, the big forces and big families in the alliance would prepare a way out for themselves to prevent any unexpected situations.
As a rapidly growing emerging force, even if the Thunder Leopard Mercenary Group continues to develop under normal circumstances, it will inevitably attract attention in the future, and all kinds of unexpected things may happen. Therefore, it is necessary to leave a way out in advance.
"Brother Jiu, tell me, what do you want us to do!" After thinking for a moment, Doug asked solemnly.
"Well, Brother Jiu, if you want us to cooperate on the financial side, just give us instructions directly." Zhao Xue also smiled and asked coquettishly.
Seeing that everyone had reached a unanimous agreement, Li Jiu couldn't help but feel happy and said, "Okay, next, I will assign some specific tasks to each of you..."
…
It didn't take Li Jiu long to assign tasks to Zhao Wu and others.
Because he had already thought about how the Leibao Mercenary Group would prepare for its retreat in the future.
Li Jiu also had his own considerations for taking the time to explain things to Zhao Wu and the others before assigning them tasks.
Although, as the head of a regiment, he naturally has the right to ask Zhao Wu and others to act directly according to his orders.
But if you can't make them understand what you are doing, then it is very likely that what you end up doing will be different from what you expected.
Fortunately, everyone finally reached a consensus, which made Li Jiu feel relieved.
After assigning tasks to everyone, Li Jiu immediately set off for the Dark Knight headquarters in the southern mountains.
…
After flying on a transport plane for several hours, Li Jiu finally arrived at the Dark Knight headquarters again.
This time when he returned to the headquarters, he was no longer as curious as the first time he came, but went straight to Mr. Knight's office with ease.
As a result, after seeing Mr. Knight, the other party took Li Jiu without saying a word and went straight to the huge cave under the mountain where the headquarters was located.
"This is……"
When Li Jiu and Mr. Knight took the transparent elevator into the cave again, the scene they saw made Li Jiu stunned.
I saw that the last time I came here, this cave was already filled with a large number of awakened people, and today the number of people is more than ten times!
"Sir, these...are these all awakened ones?" Looking at the densely packed figures in the cave below, Li Jiu asked with some disbelief.
Although he knew that there were indeed many awakeners in the entire alliance, he had never imagined that one day he would be able to see thousands of awakeners training together at the same time!
"That's right! These are all awakened people from all over the alliance, but most of them are just low-level awakened people below the general level." Mr. Knight seemed to have anticipated Li Jiu's reaction and was not surprised. Instead, he smiled mysteriously and said meaningfully: "Do you think these are too many? Hehe, if I tell you that there are tens of thousands of awakened people waiting for you in our headquarters, what would you think?"
