The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.

"Then we'll conduct the trial tonight."

Su Qiong's tone left no room for negotiation: "Hurry up. We can only rest in Luoyun City for a maximum of one day. We must move after one day."

"one day?"

Clearly, this rest period made Li Tiezhu frown: "The troops' physical strength isn't a problem, but equipment wear and tear, repairs, and resupply will probably be a bit difficult to handle!"

After all, although the commanders of the various legions contributed the most in today's siege battle.

However, the durability consumption of each soldier's equipment is also considerable.

The supply of items is not too difficult.

Since these are mostly disposable items, once they're used up, they can be replenished promptly by applying to the logistics department at the company level.

However, repairing equipment durability requires the logistics department to mobilize many professional forging engineers.

This is no small project.

But clearly, Su Qiong had already thought of a solution: "This isn't a problem. If the equipment's durability is severely damaged, we'll just replace it with new equipment!"

"The Supreme Command approved so many legendary equipment for us, just so we could build them!"

"The old equipment that is replaced is sent directly to the rear for processing, so that the blacksmiths can work overtime to repair it, thus achieving a cycle."

"In short, the advance must not be halted because of equipment!"

After saying that, Li Tiezhu thought for a moment, then nodded without saying anything more.

Right now, all we can do is put up with the hardship for the forging brothers in the logistics department.

This is the downside of large-scale warfare.

As the saying goes, "Pulling one hair can affect the whole body."

Only through cooperation between various departments can this massive war machine be kept running.

If any one link is missing, the whole thing will collapse.

Just as this topic had ended, Lin Yuan, who had been silent all along, spoke up: "Commander, regarding intelligence, I don't think we can rely solely on those with long ears!"

"After all, you can't completely trust the information those guys give you!"

"Perfect, my undead army doesn't need rest!"

"Therefore, I propose that we send out scout bone dragons, skeletons, and other summoned creatures tonight to penetrate deep into the Elf Forest, marking the enemy's defensive positions and troop density along the way."

His words immediately caught everyone's attention.

Yes, there are plenty of undead.

Especially for a saint like Lin Yuan, even if a batch of undead dies, he can summon another batch in a very short time.

This way, reconnaissance troops won't have to risk going deep into the area to gather intelligence.

Most importantly, the night vision effect of the undead is absolutely amazing, and Lin Yuan can also share vision.

That intelligence gathering is absolutely accurate every time, and it's definitely much more useful than reconnaissance drones.

"good."

Gu Xu naturally had no reason to refuse and immediately replied, "The more detailed the better. It would be best if we could find out about the vicinity of the Jade Palace, but don't force it if we can't. Safety first."

"Understood! You can continue knocking, Commander!"

Lin Yuan nodded and solemnly assured him.

Bai Ye walked over from the wall at this moment, pulled out a chair and sat down.

His expression had returned to its usual lazy look.

But what he said was anything but lazy.

"Commander, regarding the target High Priest Elonis, if a decapitation strike is necessary, I can infiltrate the Emerald Court first to conduct reconnaissance."

"My spatial abilities allow me to stay in subspace for extended periods without encountering any danger."

Clearly, he saw that everyone had something to do and wanted to do his part for everyone.

"No rush."

However, Gu Xu waved his hand and rejected Bai Ye's suggestion: "Elonis is a Familia of Devourers, and their strength is unknown. It would be too risky to infiltrate them rashly."

"No one can say for sure whether they have any backup plans in the palace!"

"To put it bluntly, if I wanted to kill that guy right now, he definitely wouldn't see the sun rise tomorrow."

"So... let's confront them head-on first, and figure out their strengths and weaknesses before making any further moves."

Bai Ye nodded, not insisting.

He knew, of course, that his legion commander wasn't bragging; he truly possessed the capability.

After all, for a ruthless person who can contend with the projection of a false god, dealing with a mere high priest is no different than crushing a chick!

Seeing that the specific details had been discussed and agreed upon, the atmosphere in the room relaxed a little.

Gu Xu decided not to waste any more of everyone's time.

"Alright, that's the basic situation. The specific operational plan will be refined tomorrow after the General Staff issues it. Tonight, everyone prepare yourselves; those who need rest should take a break, and those who need to make arrangements should do so!"

"That's enough, get some rest."

"Yes, Commander!"

Upon hearing this, everyone stood up and saluted.

The sound of the chair being pulled out and pushed back echoed on the wooden floor.

When Li Tiezhu left, he casually poured the pot of cooled tea from the table into the flower bed outside the window.

Su Qiong was the last to leave.

She paused at the doorway and glanced back at Gu Xu.

Gu Xu was standing by the window, his back to her, his hands back in his pockets.

The glow of the elf lamps outside the window illuminated his profile, casting half of his young face in light and half in shadow.

"Legion Commander."

"Um?"

Su Qiong hesitated for a moment, then finally said only, "Don't stay up too late."

Gu Xu didn't turn around, but simply raised his hand: "Understood, Sister Qiong!"

Su Qiong's footsteps gradually faded away along the stairs.

The second floor of the teahouse fell silent again.

Gu Xu stood by the window, his gaze passing over the rooftops of Luoyun City and looking towards the dark night sky to the north.

The canopy of the trees in the Elf Forest blocked out most of the starlight, with only a few scattered bright spots leaking through the gaps in the branches and leaves.

"The Devouring Gods".

He mentally went over those four words several times.

Although today's meeting seemed well-planned and comprehensive.

But for some reason, he still felt a little uneasy.

Indeed, the Calamity Legion had a very clear purpose from the day it was formed.

The entire force, from selection and training to equipment distribution and tactical system, is designed around "space-level warfare".

These brothers are all elite professionals who have crawled out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood; in terms of individual quality, they would be top-notch in any plane.

In terms of group combat capabilities, they have been honed through countless real-world tests.

From this perspective, the Calamity Army is not to be underestimated when facing the regular army of the Devouring Dimensions.

But "not being false" and "being confident" are two different things.

Gu Xu knew that although his troops were strong, they were still only at the plane level, while the regular army of the Devouring Dimensions race was capable of fighting across star systems.

The gap between the two sides cannot be bridged simply by quantity or level.

Only he himself can truly bridge this gap.

His domain of calamity, his servants of calamity—these are the true trump cards against the regular army of the Devouring Dimensions.
