"Quick, everyone, follow up. We must arrive at the target area before dawn to remove obstacles for the main force to advance."
Liu Long and Li Mu were walking together, and behind them were all the members of the Zhanyi Corps and an elite team composed entirely of monks.
Everyone wore dark green cloaks with a pair of wings embroidered on the back, so this temporary coalition composed of the most elite forces in the Mengshan Defense Zone was also called the Wings of Freedom.
The target of this coalition is a large semi-plain area on the west side of Yangjin Lake. Compared with the hills on the east side, the terrain here is more suitable for the advancement of Dong Penglai's mechanized troops, so it became Pu Hui's strategy
The first battleground in the plan.
As long as we can occupy this area first and build enough defensive fortifications, we can very effectively curb the attacks of heavy weapons such as airborne tanks and large energy stone artillery on other positions.
But what Pu Hui can think of, the three army commanders of Dong Penglai can also think of. If they want to seize the position before the opponent, the expeditionary force must be fast and ruthless, and use thunderous means before the enemy can react.
Defeat the first wave of invading troops.
Under this tactical thinking, the two teams Liu Long and Li Mu became the best choice.
They will assume the responsibility for the first head-on confrontation with the Dong Penglai army. If they can win, they will not only gain control of the strategic target area, but also greatly boost the morale of the entire army.
The total number of people in the alliance is close to 700. The fighting team is all equipped with high-quality military horses as mounts, while the monks led by Li Mu all rely on their legs to travel.
Fighting in this relatively complex terrain, the monk's advantages are fully revealed. Whether it is physical fitness or the use of heaven and earth energy, the combat range that was originally limited to the ground has been expanded to a more three-dimensional one.
Especially the five Infinite Realm masters headed by Li Mu, who can fly in the air, have completely mastered the "air superiority", greatly increasing the unit's detection radius and tactical depth, making Liu Long's troop formations more manageable.
The regiment advancing at full speed finally arrived at the target area when the sky was just turning white. Under the command of Liu Long and Li Mu, they quickly organized into a hundred small formations, occupied and began to build fortifications.
At the same time, the Ninth Army Corps, which was responsible for capturing the same area, had just arrived at a low slope five miles away from the regiment, under the personal command of Tojo Bear.
"General, the forward reconnaissance team reported that they found an enemy position. It is estimated that there are a thousand people stationed there, but a large number of monks are suspected to be among them."
The Tojo bear riding on the tall horse was obviously not adapted to such "difficult" conditions, and he moved his fat body in the hope of finding a more comfortable position.
"Why are you panicking? I deliberately let them occupy that place first. This is called waiting for work and attacking later to win. Send me an order. All members of the artillery battalion are ready. Once they enter the range, I will directly launch a few rounds of shelling to destroy these Cangyun Empire's soldiers.
The bastards are forced out of their positions."
Tojo Bear was not at all worried about the target position being occupied by Li Mu and the others in advance. He took the roasted turkey leg handed over by the adjutant and bit into it. The abundant healing water poured into his mouth, making him hooked.
In order to seize an important strategic area this time, the Ninth Army dispatched more than half of the energy stone ordnance troops. Just the empty chariots that caused Pu Hui and Li Mu too much trouble in Qinglan City had enough
Hundreds of vehicles, and countless other types of energy stone artillery.
With such a large scale of firepower, it’s no wonder that Tojo Bear didn’t take the Cangyun Empire’s troops, which numbered less than a thousand, into consideration at all. In his plan, as long as a few rounds of firepower covered Li Mu, who couldn’t hold on,
They will naturally give up their position.
If a few rounds are not enough, then a few more. Anyway, what the Ninth Legion lacks most is resources and money. This is also the reason why this fully mechanized force has maintained the lowest death rate for many years.
Compared with Dong Penglai's somewhat "arrogant" self-confidence, Li Mu and Liu Long made the worst-case scenario for the battle.
After discovering in advance that the invading enemy was Dong Penglai's Ninth Army Corps, the entire regiment began to transform the trenches and re-established three lines of defense based on the enemy's long-distance fire suppression combat characteristics.
The first line of defense is a "mine array" composed of a large number of detonating symbols. Its target is an airborne tank that has extremely strong defense and attack power but insufficient maneuverability. For this line of defense, Li Mu almost
He moved all his inventory out, which can be said to be no expense spared.
The second line of defense is the fighting team led by Liu Long. They will be responsible for disrupting the enemy's formation with the "mine array", turning it into a sharp knife, breaking through in front of the opponent's artillery, and destroying the ninth in a short time.
Destroy big weapons in legion position battles.
The last line of defense is commanded by Li Mu. These hundreds of monks will also be the last barrier of this position. When the battle situation is not going well or when the situation becomes anxious, they will be responsible for attacking and destroying the core force of the enemy.
The three lines of defense have a clear division of labor, but in actual combat, they will assist each other. This not only maximizes combat effectiveness, but also creates huge resistance to the enemy's advancement.
As the earth shook slightly, Li Mu, who was hiding in the trench, understood that the battle had finally begun. He had used the Tiansheng Jue to its limit, and his powerful perception had discovered the vanguard of the Ninth Legion.
"It's an energy stone cannon. Everyone, please be careful to hide."
At this time, all the positions had entered the attack range of the energy stone artillery. Dong Penglai's soldiers were seen in groups of five, aiming their black barrels at the Cangyun Empire position not far away.
A blue light lit up, and the energy stone installed at the back end of the cannon spurted out strong energy fluctuations. The special embedded formation continued to gather this majestic energy.
"Fire!"
Following Tojo Bear's order, more than a hundred energy stone cannons roared simultaneously, and blue energy cannonballs soared into the sky, creating an extremely spectacular scene on Yangjin Lake.
"boom"
The first artillery fire fell on the Cangyun Empire's position, and the deafening explosion was accompanied by the rising soil. Then came the second, and the third, and the continuous shells were released in an area of less than three acres.
The horrifying explosion made all the monks dare not raise their heads.
"Attention above in the Transformation Infantry Realm, take action with me, don't let the cannonballs fall in the trenches."
Seeing a precise energy stone shell land directly in the trench of the second line of defense, instantly blowing three soldiers of the Fighting Team into pieces, Li Mu understood that if he just passively took the beating, even if he withstood the bombardment, he would still be in trouble.
lost heavily.
The Star Meteor Sword was unsheathed boldly, and Li Mu, who rose into the air, waved out a stream of pure Yang sword energy, intercepting three energy stone shells directly in mid-air.
Lin Qingzhu, Bai Jingting and others followed closely behind, and the monks' figures flashed, moving around in the countless artillery fire, blocking all the attacks that threatened the position the most.
