"About 300 people." The warrior answered, and the next moment, he continued, "What should we do with these Hamo people?"
"Of course, take them to the Eagle's Nest first." This time, the people who ran over were women and children, about a dozen in number. The adult men of the Hamo tribe joined the battle with the security team. These people had no weapons, but they had simple bows and arrows. Alena was in the Eagle's Nest, thinking about something else. "This place shouldn't have been discovered so early. Is there a traitor in the team?" The most likely person is one of the 16 newcomers. The premature exposure put them in a very passive situation. While she was thinking about her worries, the communicator in her hand rang. It was Collin who called.
"Chief, there are about 300 people on the other side. We must be prepared to evacuate." Alena cursed in her heart, "Thinking about retreating before the battle has even started, what a coward!" She spoke her thoughts directly. "Collin, hold on, hit them hard, and make sure they have nothing to fight back. I will send more people to support you."
She wanted to send Daechir out, this female robot could fight against more than a dozen people. Unfortunately, the other party did not listen to her orders. She had to go to her brother. De Silva knew that the situation was urgent, so he immediately went to persuade Daechir. He only heard the other party say, "I will only take action if I am attacked or exposed in the Eagle's Nest. Now you can solve the problem down the mountain by yourselves." De Silva was rejected and was furious, but he had no choice. Alena had to send the logistics team, mobile team, and intelligence team to support. She also went out with weapons, but was stopped by De Silva, "Don't go out. If something happens, this team will be finished."
"Brother, I will be careful." After saying that, she turned and walked away. The security team had retreated to the mountain, and with them were two people from the Hamo tribe. The Illuminati did not attack the mountain, obviously because they were afraid of too many casualties, and the two sides were in a stalemate for a while. Alena hid behind a rock, and beside her was Bashali, and the two discussed the next move. "If we can get behind the Illuminati and attack them from both sides, it should be easy to defeat them."
"Hey, this is a good idea, but how do we get around it?" Alena asked. "I heard from Daechir that there are many secret passages here, can we try it?"
"Okay, then go ask, I'll wait for your good news." Bashali nodded, turned around and ran back to the Eagle's Nest. When she asked, there really were some, but it would take about two kilometers. She set off immediately with twenty people. The potato robot led the way, and in the densely packed secret passages, they finally reached an exit. Bashali first stuck her head out to observe, and the Illuminati were more than 300 meters at the foot of the mountain. The exit was next to a tree, and they quietly filed out and found a hidden place to hide. Bashali took out the communication equipment to contact Alena, and the two sides agreed to attack at the same time after thirty seconds. Time passed by, and everyone was nervous, because if they couldn't eliminate the other side at once, it would be very dangerous. The agreed time finally arrived. There was a sound of "bang bang bang", and bullets flew towards the other side like raindrops. The Illuminati kept staring at the mountain. When they found that they were attacked from both sides and nearly half of them had been eliminated, they immediately turned around and concentrated all their strength to attack backwards. Bashali and others fought and retreated, losing several fighters at once. They didn't dare to return to the entrance of the passage, fearing that their position would be exposed. Alena saw it on the mountain and rushed down to support. In this way, the three teams chased each other and fought until they were three kilometers away. Bashali knew that it would be more dangerous to be chased further, so she immediately ordered, "Everyone, run away!" There were still fifteen fighters left, and everyone immediately scattered and fled. The Illuminati lost their target and turned around to fight with Alena's people. Alena didn't want to fight, and immediately retreated to the mountain. Both sides stopped fighting and counted the number of casualties. The "Courage Alliance" had a total of 16 deaths and 8 injuries. Only more than 70 people were left in the Illuminati. Alena asked the security team to guard the way up the mountain, she was afraid that the enemy would attack. Although more than 200 enemies were killed this time, their own side also suffered a lot of losses. The most important thing is that the team here cannot be replenished. If one person dies, there will be one less person, which makes her worried. De Silva walked over and said, "Now we can only face them head-on, and we can't hide anymore."
"But we have so few people, how can we face the enemy head-on?"
"Since we have been exposed, we should recruit boldly. We can't be tied up because of one or two spies, but we can't be unconditional. The first thing is to recruit people from the original city-state, and it's okay to have recommendations from acquaintances, and some people who have been persecuted by the Illuminati."
"Okay! After this battle, I will let the logistics team do it immediately." De Silva continued, "The Illuminati are stationed at the foot of the mountain. They should be waiting for reinforcements. We will launch an attack tonight and eliminate them all." The people who retreated separately from Bashali also came back. At midnight, in the Eagle's Nest, all the personnel were divided into two groups. One group made a feint attack on the mountain, and the other group entered the passage and attacked from behind. Unfortunately, the opponent was well prepared this time, and they did not gain much advantage. The battle was extremely fierce, and Bashali was hit in the calf. Fortunately, a male soldier carried her on his back and retreated. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, they retreated back to the passage. "What should we do, captain?" a soldier asked. Bashali said with pain, "We can only retreat first, otherwise the loss of personnel will be too great." When they returned to the Eagle's Nest, De Silva saw the wound on her leg and cried out distressedly, "Where is the doctor? Call them quickly!" The "Courage Alliance" did not have a real doctor, only a nurse, but these wounds could still be treated. Alena was relieved to see that her wound was not too serious. What she was worried about now was the Illuminati's backup force. Nicola had been taking care of the other wounded. At this time, she hurried over. "Collin's people are almost exhausted. Should we let them retreat in?"
"Okay! Let everyone here retreat to the passage." She planned to hand this place over to Daechir next. The potato robot has been following the progress of the battle. When Daechir saw that the Illuminati had come to the mountain and rushed to the Garden of Eden, she muttered to herself, "Alena is really useless. They were beaten by such a small number of people." The potato robot asked, "What should we do now?"
"Don't worry about those people outside. Wait until they find the entrance first."
"Why don't you take the initiative to attack? They bully the Watson family so much." The potato robot asked with a little dissatisfaction. Daechir smiled, "I don't need to do anything at all. I have been preparing for decades. How can a few hundred people break in?"
