Those paying close attention to this war are not only the senior officials of the five tribes in southern Xinjiang, but also the senior officials of the Heaven Realm.
It was already late at night, and the lights in Phantom's tent were still brightly lit.
Phantom was dressed in red armor and stood in front of a map of southern Xinjiang with his hands behind his back.
There is a bronze mirror on each side of her, and what is shown in the mirror is the scene of Falling Eagle Valley and Niutou Mountain at this moment.
The shooting angle was from the air, showing every move of the soldiers of the five ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang.
In addition to Phantom, there are more than ten senior generals from heaven in the big tent.
They were also looking at the pictures in the two bronze mirrors.
A golden-armored general frowned and said, "Why haven't the five tribes in southern Xinjiang launched an attack yet?
Are they afraid?"
Several senior generals immediately echoed the words of the golden-armored general.
They all shouted that human beings are just a bunch of ants, how can they be the opponents of gods and men in heaven?
Even though there are less than 40,000 people in the South Army Corps at the moment, it is more than enough to defeat hundreds of thousands of human ants.
Phantom never spoke, but her brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
Of course she wouldn't think that Gray was suddenly afraid.
She had already seen that Gray was waiting for Niutoushan's deployment.
"You finally showed up again!"
Phantom knew that the five tribes in southern Xinjiang had no military skills to speak of when fighting. They just relied on their courage to not be afraid of death and rushed forward to kill each other with the enemy.
Tonight's ambush battle in Falling Eagle Valley is obviously not a common fighting method among the five tribes in southern Xinjiang.
This style of play is very familiar to Phantom, and Li Tielan often uses this move.
Let go of the enemy's forward battalion, then use a small number of troops to contain the opponent's forward battalion or reinforcements, and use all the main combat power to attack the enemy's main force.
This is not the encirclement and reinforcement in the art of war.
It's about blocking and managing.
Only Li Tielan, who has a rock-solid heart, dares to use this kind of tactics.
Phantom knows this tactic, but she will not use this abandonment-like tactic unless absolutely necessary.
Because the troops responsible for blocking the enemy's reinforcements are almost like abandoned sons, and few of them can survive.
Since this afternoon, Phantom has been secretly watching every move in Falling Eagle Valley.
She saw the ambush troops of the five tribes in southern Xinjiang withdrawing from the mountains and hiding a few miles away to avoid the detection of the Tianjie Air Cavalry.
At first she thought this was Gray's caution.
It wasn't until Phantom noticed that there was also a small group of warriors from the five tribes in Niutoushan that he realized that Gray suddenly withdrew his troops this afternoon because of the guidance of an expert.
This person made precise use of the distance between Falling Eagle Valley and Niutou Mountain, and also accurately determined the march time between the forward battalion and the main force in Heaven.
With this kind of hard-heartedness and this way of blocking reinforcements, apart from Li Tielan's successor in the art of war in the human world, Phantom could not think of anyone else.
Not long ago, she had a fight with this person in the Western Region, and Phantom was deceived and suffered a big loss.
Phantom has been searching for this person's whereabouts and pursuing information about this person.
But it didn't work.
At this moment, I finally found another clue about this guy.
From the Battle of Yingzui Cliff ten years ago, to the Battle of Longmen, and now to the ambush battle of Falling Eagle Valley in southern Xinjiang.
This mysterious guy is like the queen ant hiding deep in the nest, never showing her face, but commanding the overall situation and turning things around.
Phantom said bitterly in his heart: "No matter how deep you hide it, I, Phantom, swear that I will dig it out! I want to see who you are."
After swearing the oath, Phantom looked back at the senior generals in the heaven who were talking about it.
She said slowly: "Notify Si Wenliang immediately and tell him that at this moment they have entered the ambush circle of the five tribes in southern Xinjiang. Ask Si Wenliang to immediately transfer the forward battalion back to rush for reinforcements. The soldiers who have already entered the valley are rushing to rescue them as quickly as possible.
Rush over and immediately seize the two highlands to the south of Eagle Falling Valley while the rear army has not yet entered the valley."
Originally, Phantom didn't want to get involved. She just wanted to use the southern army to find the Black Fire development base in southern Xinjiang.
Now it has been guessed that behind the ambush in Falling Eagle Valley, there is the figure of the mysterious man.
Phantom then changed his mind and planned to rely on Falling Eagle Valley to have another fight with Li Tielan's mysterious successor.
Although the current situation is very unfavorable to the Celestial Army, Phantom still wants to give it a try.
Even if you can't turn things around, you still have to be disgusted with that guy.
At the same time, Zhan Ying, who was far away in Changbai Mountain, did not rest either.
There is a white-robed wizard from Southern Xinjiang beside him to protect his safety. At this moment, the white-robed wizard is communicating with the Eagle Falling Valley using secret methods.
Zhan Ying was writing and drawing on the battle map. He felt that tonight's ambush battle in Falling Eagle Valley would end before dusk tomorrow if nothing unexpected happened.
The heavenly army will lose most of it.
At least half of the more than 300,000 soldiers deployed in southern Xinjiang will be lost.
Phantom's order came at almost the same time as Gray received the news that Niutoushan had sealed the deal.
Si Wenliang was shocked when he saw the news from the phantom. He immediately looked up at the steep cliffs on both sides.
At the same time, Gray also received news that Niutoushan was ready to block the attack.
Gray waved his arm and said hoarsely: "Attack!"
Si Wenliang, who was located in the south of the valley, also began to shout orders: "There are ambushes around, the front army rushes through the canyon! The rear army exits the canyon! The madman, the skeleton army, immediately seize the high ground on both wings!"
Before the order was sent out, countless fuses had already been lit.
At the same time, countless bright lights suddenly appeared on the highlands on both sides of the valley.
The bright light fell in the valley in an arc, turning out to be burning torches.
Torches lit up the valley.
These remaining soldiers in Tianjie have been very cautious in the past ten years, for fear of being surrounded and suppressed by the five tribes in southern Xinjiang.
This evacuation did not have any demeanor of a heavenly being, and was even more low-key than a mouse.
They were frightened by the hundreds of thousands of torches falling from the sky, and their formation was immediately thrown into chaos.
Constantly shouting and roaring.
Many heavenly soldiers began to run rampant.
There was chaos in the valley.
Under the illumination of countless torches, the enemy figures below the valley appeared clearly in the eyes of the soldiers of Southern Xinjiang.
The five-stone bow was drawn, and each arrow was tied with a gunpowder bamboo tube.
More than 100,000 thunder rockets made a sharp sound of piercing the sky and shot toward the valley.
In the past, human soldiers fought against the celestial legions and were massacred unilaterally.
Due to the huge gap in combat power, human soldiers can only fill it with their lives.
At this moment, it was also a one-sided massacre.
It's just that the roles have been reversed.
The crackling roar cut through the long lonely night.
The earth is trembling and death is roaring.
A blast of thunder rockets killed 20% of the tens of thousands of celestial warriors who entered the valley, and the others were also blown away.
The well-trained giant army raised its large shield and tried to form a protective circle.
However, the number of giant warriors is not large, and they cannot protect tens of thousands of people who are like a long snake formation.
And, the most terrifying thing happened.
On several rock walls on both sides of the valley, the fuses have been burned out.
The explosive charge was ignited.
Hundreds of explosive packets exploded at the same time, and the sound was much scarier than before.
The whole earth was shaking violently.
Under the impact of the explosion, countless rocks weighing hundreds or thousands of kilograms rolled down from the air.
Even a thick-skinned giant warrior would have his brains knocked out if he was hit by a rock weighing over a thousand kilograms.
