【0083】 Hard work
Fixing the order of the spirit world cannot be accomplished overnight - and the dead Noxians cannot be easily dismissed. Yasuo even needs to "kill them again" to return them to the order of the spirit world.
among.
The parts of Sirana's Monastery that were destroyed in the battle have been repaired, but Yasuo has not yet completely settled things in the spirit world.
Twisted vines need to be eliminated, wandering ghosts need to be dispatched, frightened spirits need to be calmed...
Yasuo is extremely busy.
Moreover, while the Silana Monastery was recovering, the Talu Bay side had to continue to be dealt with. For three months, Yasuo shuttled between the spiritual world and the real world every day.
After exerting a lot of effort, Yasuo managed to calm down the chaos in the spirit world. Then, before he could relax a little, bad news came from the direction of Presidian - Yasuo, who had rushed back to Kanta, saw him.
Messenger of the Precidians.
From the messenger, Yasuo learned that Jericho Swain, the senior staff officer and strategist commander, was taking action in the main direction of the Noxian attack.
Because the Storm Swordsmen's frontal resistance organization was cautious and relied on the terrain, Swain did not choose to raid Presidence. Instead, he sent soldiers from both wings to try to destroy all Presidence's support.
Although the Swift Wind Sword Sect provided certain support, in the face of the sudden raid by the Noxians, the unprepared sects outside Presidence suffered heavy losses.
Originally, if this was the case, it wouldn't be too serious - Swain wasn't just a man for nothing, so when he was stuck in a quagmire with a frontal attack, it was normal operation to harass him from the side.
But what worries Yasuo is that according to the news from the Storm Swordsmen, it seems that there are traces of chemical weapons in Swain's actions.
"The green smoke destroyed everything it passed, whether it was grass, trees, or even rocks, turning them into pits." The messenger's description made people shudder. "Everything was dead silence wherever it passed. It once helped us resist the invasion."
All the land of the Texas people has been included in the attack range."
When he heard this, Yasuo's heart finally thumped.
It's over, and the thing I was most worried about happened.
The Noxians, who were unable to attack for a long time, used alchemical gas!
Although there were still some problems in the spiritual world at Sirana Monastery, Yasuo could no longer care about it at this time. He immediately ran to Irelia's cabin, found the map with ease, and followed the messenger's description.
The areas that were attacked by the alchemical gas were marked one by one on it.
Through the mark, Yasuo could clearly see that two green lines representing poisonous gas had been vaguely formed, and in the middle of these two parallel lines was Prexidian.
With this posture... could Swain want to divide the battlefield and attack Prexidian?
For a moment, Yasuo couldn't understand the strategist leader's thoughts.
You know, under the current situation, the strength of the Ionian Volunteer Army has been concentrated in Presidence, and the entire Presidence is backed by mountains, so there is no need to worry about supplies. Even if you cut off the connection with the flanks, you still have no way to attack.
Ionia is no help!
As for whether the Noxians will abandon Ionia and choose to attack the flanks...
Even if there is alchemical gas to scan the map, Yasuo does not think that the Noxians have this ability. The reason why these Noxian regular troops are locked in a bitter battle in Ionia and cannot attack for a long time is that, in addition to the constant resistance of the volunteers,
The most important reason is that this land is rejecting them.
When the Noxians arrived, the forest would grow vines and the flowers would emit poison. Ionia would also join the Ionians in resisting the Noxian invasion.
After entering Ionia, the Noxian's past strategy of simply letting the enemy die completely collapsed. They had to transport a large amount of supplies through the Weili port and send heavy troops to maintain the supply line, so as to continue to put pressure on the Presidians.
!
Therefore, it's not that the Noxians don't want to expand the front, they really don't have the ability to destroy it.
From the very beginning, Swain's idea was to suppress Preidion and undermine the Ionian people's fighting spirit - in a total war, the Noxians would not be able to afford it!
It is for this reason that when Yasuo learned that the Noxians used poison gas at first, he was nervous in case they shamelessly destroyed the environment of Ionia and made several large-scale attacks along his supply lines.
If a large-scale poison gas attack creates a normal transportation road, then the pressure that Presidence will face will be much greater.
But Yasuo never expected that Swain, who had always been extremely shrewd, seemed to have lost his mind and spent a lot of alchemical gas to divide the battlefield!
Although these poisonous gases did hit Ionia, but... it was not used in the most critical places!
I don’t know why, but Yasuo always feels like there’s something going on here!
……………………
Although the situation didn't seem as bad as expected, Yasuo still wanted to return to Presidence - he put away the map, went straight to Irelia and bid her farewell.
"Are you leaving now?" Irelia, who heard that Yasuo was going to return to Presidence, returned to her hut with surprise on her face, "Didn't you say before that Larin's spiritual world is not stable enough?"
"It's unstable, but it's not a serious problem at all." Yasuo sighed helplessly, "There are some problems with the Preidian defense line, and the Noxians jumped over the wall in a hurry - at this time, I must return to the Swift Wind Sword Sect.
go."
"How about... I come too?" After hesitating for a moment, Irelia lowered her head and whispered a suggestion, "The threat from Lalin Monk Shangzan has been basically eliminated. I can also go back to Prexidian with you.
"
"You can't escape." Yasuo smiled after hearing this, "Although Duqal is finished and Noxus' navy is almost sunk, the damage suffered by this land has not yet been restored - and besides, we have just captured
We have acquired a large number of armors and weapons, so you need to lead the volunteer army to get used to the feeling of being a regular army!"
Irelia raised her head, the disappointment on her face visible to the naked eye.
"Don't show this expression, Irelia." Yasuo touched her head helplessly, "This is not the attitude that the children of the Zan family should have - when the volunteers are trained, I still count on you to give them some help.
Swain is going to do it hard!"
"Swain?"
"The head coach of Presidencia is an insidious bastard." Yasuo thought for a moment and added, "Now that the Noxian Navy is finished, control of the ocean has returned to our hands. Who knows where?
I will ask you for help tomorrow, and you must keep your appointment when the time comes—I will be waiting for you in Precidian Bay!"
"Okay!" Hearing what Yasuo said, Irelia raised her head again, "Then it's settled - the daughter of the Zan family is waiting for your call!"
The next moment, just when Yasuo was about to call Toothless, Irelia spread her hands: "If you want to summon the daughter of the Zan family, you have to give me a token, right?"
Keepsake?
Yasuo was stunned for a moment.
"I remember that I gave you maple seeds in Presidence? That was given to me by my brother..."
"That doesn't count." Irelia shook her head and interrupted Yasuo in a rare moment, "I want a new one this time."
New token?
Yasuo thought for a while.
I can’t give you the suona, I can’t give you the shakuhachi, I can’t give you the long sword... There’s nothing left for me, right?
Wait—there it is!
With an idea, Yasuo untied the red knot that was newly wrapped around the hilt of his sword, divided it into two strands, and gave Irelia two ugly buns.
Then, before Irelia realized how bad her skills were, he called Toothless and ran away.
Chapter completed!
