Chapter 118: Proud Posture, War Drums Beating
In Cao Ling's eyes, the core task of the auxiliary attack position on the battlefield is to create a powerful attack space for friendly forces.
In this battle with the demon clan, Li Yunlong assigned Cao Ling's Third Elite Battalion the task of supporting Shen Quan's Second Elite Battalion.
For Cao Ling,
The intention of Sect Leader Li Yunlong is to have him lead the Third Elite Battalion to contain the power of the entire Fourth Demon Brigade!
......
"Contain the entire Fourth Demon Army?!"
When Cao Geng revealed this idea to Monk Wei and other fellow practitioners, everyone was dumbfounded.
It turned out that they had never expected that in the fierce battle between immortals and demons, the secret meaning of the four words "flanking support" would have such a profound meaning!
In the past, they only thought that "flanking support" was a task to assist the Second Monks Battalion in combat.
"So, my Third Monk Battalion can fight the evil Japanese with all its might without any scruples?" Monk Wei asked excitedly.
"The first priority is to ensure the stability of the Second Monks' Camp's output. This is a strict order from Captain Li Yunlong before the war." Cao Geng reminded cautiously.
Cao Geng was determined not to do anything that went against military orders, but he would never stop trying to inspire the initiative and creativity of his monks.
"Please rest assured, Captain!" Monk Wei and others looked happy and nodded in agreement.
As expected, Captain Li Yunlong had already allowed their Third Monks Battalion to take on the role of the main attack.
Afterwards, the Third Monks Camp, which received Cao Geng's order, fell silent, waiting for the arrival of the evil Japanese Fourth Demon Army.
At this moment, all the monk camps of the New 1st Regiment were silently waiting for the arrival of the evil Japanese. The entire camp was shrouded in a calmness as if on the eve of a great war.
Just like the calm before the storm, once the evil Japanese show up, a war between tens of thousands of practitioners will break out here, and it will explode like thunder!
Just as the various camps of monks in the New 1st Regiment were quietly waiting, the evil Japanese troops were indeed approaching in a mighty force.
They did not try to conceal their tracks, but instead adopted the method of large-scale military marching in parallel, gradually approaching the stronghold of the New First Regiment, just as unscrupulously as they had invaded the Central Plains.
"Captain, according to the investigation, the evil Japanese are expected to arrive at our preset location in five minutes!" When the dark mass of evil Japanese troops were approaching the New 1st Regiment, Li Yunlong and Cao Geng both received the report.
Li Yunlong nodded and said, "Very good. Once the evil Japanese army arrives, we will use the first wave of high-intensity spells to block and attack their army! Once they are frustrated by our spell attacks, we will start a protracted tug-of-war with them!"
Cao Geng also nodded in agreement: "That's right, when the evil Japanese army arrives, we will madly use the magic bombs on those evil Japanese! After throwing them, our disciples will immediately evacuate and move to the second battlefield to implement the flank piercing tactics against the evil Japanese!"
Compared with Li Yunlong's tactics, Cao Geng's strategy seemed a bit impulsive and aggressive, but Wei Heshang and others under Cao Geng were very excited after hearing the order.
Although they only had 900 monks, their trust in Cao Geng was boundless. As long as they had the leadership of Captain Cao Geng, their new group would surely win.
Now, even if Cao Geng asked them to attack Taiyuan City directly, Wei Heshang and others would carry out the mission without hesitation.
Soon, a new group of monks who were scattered and hiding in the surroundings all witnessed the huge army of the evil Japanese rolling in...
Li Yunlong and Cao Xuanfeng led three thousand elite disciples and were right in front of the main line of the Fourth Legion of the Japanese Demon Clan!
They saw tens of thousands of Japanese monsters approaching them, getting closer and closer!
Li Yunlong waved his hand without hesitation.
A deafening roar: "Set up the formation, cast the spell!"
In an instant, the monks of the new group performed their secret techniques one after another, and the spiritual fire within the formation exploded, bombarding the Fourth Legion of the Japanese demon clan like thunder!
In fact, the Fourth Legion of the Japanese Demon Clan had long anticipated that the outskirts of the New First Regiment’s base might be raided by the Eight Desolate Immortal Alliance.
So, after Li Yunlong officially declared war on the demon clan, those Japanese demon clans immediately stopped, each looking for hiding places, and prepared for a counterattack in an orderly manner!
……
Inside the Fourth Legion’s demon headquarters.
"The opponent we are facing is the New 1st Regiment, one of the 36 Cave Heavens of the Eight Desolate Immortal Alliance. Its leader is called Li Yunlong! He is a man of strange tactics and is especially good at fighting in the mountains and forests!"
"This time, the New 1st Regiment wants to stop our Fourth Army, obviously to buy time for the Eight Desolate Immortal Alliance's large forces to evacuate!"
Just at this time, when Li Yunlong's side launched a surprise attack on the Demon Clan's Fourth Legion, the Japanese Demon Clan, who seemed to be on the passive defensive, had actually already obtained most of the intelligence on the New First Regiment.
At this moment, in the headquarters of the Fourth Legion of the Demon Clan, an intelligence officer reported to the legion commander:
"According to our intelligence, the main force of the New 1st Regiment is right in front of our army's advance route, with about 3,000 people! Commander, as long as we can break through this New 1st Regiment with 3,000 monks, our army will be able to directly pursue the Eight Desolate Immortal Alliance army that is fleeing in panic!"
Hearing this, the commander of the Fourth Legion of the Demon Tribe praised him highly: "Hirata-kun, you have collected intelligence very well!"
Then, the legion commander showed a confident smile: "I still remember that when the Sakata Brigade attacked the New 1st Regiment, they only had about 800 people. However, after the battle of Cangyun Ridge, the New 1st Regiment of the Eight Desolate Immortal Alliance not only did not weaken, but expanded to 3,000 people. I have to admit that the leader of the New 1st Regiment, Li Yunlong, is indeed extraordinary!"
The Sakata Regiment of the Demon Clan's Fourth Legion had fought against the New 1st Regiment at Cangyun Ridge. On that occasion, Li Yunlong and Cao Xuanfeng teamed up to wipe out the Sakata Regiment. This incident has always been a source of resentment for the commander of the Fourth Legion.
"However, no matter how powerful he is, his luck will come to an end!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a hint of coldness flashed across the face of the legion commander. "With the full force of our demon clan's Fourth Legion, not even a super legion of the Central Earth Shenzhou Immortal Alliance could resist them, let alone a small Eight Desolate Immortal Alliance New First Legion!"
Hearing the corps commander's conceited words, the intelligence officer knew that he was determined to kill Li Yunlong, so he said no more.
