It wasn't that Li Mo was greedy, because the enemy's army couldn't stay in one place forever.

In about two days at most, Morpheus will become impatient and will at least send out some small groups of troops to scout the movements of our main force.

Li Mo needs to make some noise to attract Morpheus's attention.

However, it seems that the enemy's main force has already regrouped and joined forces. If Li Mo were to lead these 1,800 vanguard soldiers up there, it would be tantamount to suicide.

Therefore, the purpose of Li Mo's meeting tonight is to discuss the next battle plan.

"Gentlemen, my plan is for everyone to set up camp and rest for two days. We will not move unless the enemy moves. During these two days, we must pay attention to the enemy's reconnaissance units. If any reconnaissance units are detected, they must be annihilated immediately!"

"Two days from now, we need to make a scene to attract Morpheus's attention. We need to brainstorm, after all! Feel free to share your ideas!"

The officers were stumped when they looked at the military map on the table.

Li Mo's trusted subordinates, Wu Yuqing and Qin Zhengnan, are both descendants of the Martial God family. They have been pampered since childhood and have no idea what fighting is all about.

Xu Feng was even more clueless. He scratched his head and said to Li Mo, "Boss, I can't even understand this map. Just tell me where to attack!"

Seeing this, Li Mo could only nod helplessly. He hadn't expected Xu Feng to offer any constructive suggestions anyway.

Xu Feng's position under Li Mo was actually similar to that of Baal, except that he was not as brutal as Baal. However, in terms of loyalty, Xu Feng was definitely number one.

Fortunately, Zhang Ruxue, Li Mo's former superior, was still in the military tent. She had risen to the position of company commander of the Tiger Legion, so she must have been on the battlefield.

She pointed to the rear of the Black Earth Tribe army on the map and said, "I've looked at the enemy's formation. Although they've combined their forces, there are still quite a few weaker units at the rear. We can form a force of about a thousand men without using heavy artillery positions to launch an attack; perhaps we can achieve some results!"

Li Mo nodded slightly. Zhang Ruxue's suggestion was good, and attacking the enemy's rear would also make Morpheus worry.

At this moment, Zheng Jiahao shook his head and said, "That's not a good idea! Morpheus is cunning and treacherous. What if he goes against common sense and ambushes our elite troops in the rear? We might be surrounded and annihilated as soon as we rush in!"

Zheng Jiahao's concerns were not unfounded. If Li Mo led his men to attack the surrounded group, there would be no way they could break through.

The cost of this gamble is too high. If you win, you only wipe out some insignificant enemy troops, but if you lose, the vanguard battalion will be completely annihilated...

No matter how you look at it, it's not worth it!

After raising his questions, Zheng Jiahao also offered his own opinions.

His finger was pointing towards the enemy's rear!

"My suggestion is that we launch a surprise attack on this place! If I remember correctly, this place is called the Rainforest Mining Area, one of the largest resource areas of the Black Earth Tribe. Most importantly, this Rainforest Mining Area also has the largest highway outside the Black Earth Tribe's border, which means that if we destroy this place, we can also cut off their supply lines!"

Upon hearing this, Li Mo's eyes lit up. As expected of a strategist!

These words were like a sudden awakening for Li Mo!

Li Mo had long heard of the rainforest mining area; it seemed to have two star crystal mines and many rare metal mineral resources.

To protect this place, the Black Soil Tribe built many fortifications and stationed a large number of troops there.

Our country has actually attacked this place many times before, but all of them have come to nothing. The enemy has a tight defense of this place and has not given us any chance at all.

But things are different now. For the sake of the Seven Yuan Mountains, the Black Soil Tribe has launched a full-scale attack, and the rainforest mining area will inevitably be the weakest point in its defenses.

More importantly, Morpheus was always on guard against the main force of the Great Xia, so how could he have imagined that the vanguard battalion would attack their country's important strategic area?

There's also the highway Zheng Jiahao mentioned. It's a highway that stretches for over a thousand kilometers and leads directly to the homeland of the Black Soil Tribe. It's the longest and largest highway the Black Soil Tribe has built outside the border.

If Li Mo blows it up, the Black Earth Tribe's supplies won't arrive at the front line as quickly, which will facilitate the decisive battle between the Great Xia army and the Black Earth Tribe army!

"Great idea! Excellent idea!"

Li Mo couldn't help but give Zheng Jiahao a thumbs up.

He immediately made the decision to implement Zheng Jiahao's proposed plan!

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

After two days of rest, both Li Mo's vanguard and Morpheus's Black Earth Tribe army had basically recovered and were in good spirits.

Just as Li Mo had suspected, Morpheus was already somewhat suspicious.

Based on his understanding of Zhao Zhenyuan, if the main force of the Great Xia really arrived, even if Zhao Zhenyuan did not immediately start a decisive battle, he would send out many small units to harass the army of the Black Earth Tribe. This was Zhao Zhenyuan's consistent tactic.

But there was no movement from Daxia for two days.

Morpheus was getting impatient. He immediately ordered, "Send out three detachments to conduct reconnaissance. A few hundred men will suffice. Remember, if you encounter a large enemy force, do not engage them in battle; report back immediately!"

Morpheus, who sent out reconnaissance troops, never imagined that the vanguard battalion had already traveled thousands of kilometers ahead of time and arrived at their country's most important rainforest mining area.

Standing on the mountain and looking down, Li Mo saw that the entire rainforest mining area was covered with steel fortresses, looking like steel city walls, protecting the minerals inside very well.

Under normal circumstances, the rainforest mining area is basically garrisoned by more than 10,000 soldiers. If attacked by the enemy, they will report it immediately, and reinforcements will arrive in less than half an hour.

But the situation is different now. Li Mo roughly estimated that the entire rainforest mining area has no more than a thousand soldiers with combat capabilities!

Although there were only a thousand men, Zheng Jiahao frowned after taking one look: "Tsk, this place is easy to defend but difficult to attack! Our heavy artillery can't destroy these steel fortresses, but there are heavy weapons inside the fortresses. If we launch a direct assault, we'll suffer heavy casualties!"

Even with only a thousand people, the rainforest mining area is not so easy to conquer.

Especially if they launch a strong attack, Li Mo and his group will become easy targets for the enemy's heavy weapons!

In the early years, the Black Soil Tribe and the White European Empire had many collaborations. The Black Soil Tribe also obtained many high-tech weapons from the White European Empire. It is said that many of those heavy weapons were used to reinforce the mining area.

However, Li Mo knew a principle: the stronger the fortress, the more likely it is to be breached from within. Seeing the miners constantly entering and leaving the mining area, Li Mo suddenly had an idea!
