Chapter 289: The Surprise Attack Begins
After about two hours, the Iron Guards finally arrived at the Sacred Tree!
Standing on the third floor of the sacred tree and looking down, I only heard the sound of those iron armors rubbing, and in the light of the lit torches, those iron armor guards appeared like steel beasts, and a large number of complicated iron boots made a dense sound when they moved, and the rhythm was distinct, which sounded invigorating.
They were arranged in a neat phalanx under the sacred tree, and the weapons in their hands were also neatly held, and the ghost masks on their faces were still terrifying and cold, like a swarm of evil spirits emerging from hell.
Looking at this murderous battle array, my confidence was also strengthened, just one of these ironclad guards is enough to be ten of them, not to mention that there are dozens of them now, this is simply a huge killing group!
Moreover, these killing machines have no emotion and no consciousness, and they do not retreat or kill without dying, and they are simply bulldozers in war! If they are applied to modern warfare, they can also achieve good results!
Although the Iron Guards have arrived at the Sacred Tree, they are not the main forces this time, and I am ready to use the Reapersand Demigods to complete this operation!
After all, the demigods have all kinds of divine powers, and the reapers come and go like the wind, and the killing methods are vicious and fast, so they can be regarded as the best candidates for blitzkrieg.
So here's how I arranged it: I took the demigods on the road, the Reapers protected us along the way, and finally arranged for twenty Iron Guards to follow us, in order to prevent accidents in the battle, and the strong Iron Guards could help us break the back.
After all, I am not familiar with that border area, although I don't know much about ancient warfare, but I love to play war games at home, and I know that temporary combat deployment is very important, because the battlefield is changing at any time, it does not shift by people's hearts, and if you want to win, in addition to planning in advance, you have to consider the worst outcome.
In addition to these, we also faced a great difficulty, that is, speed and time, the strength of our demigods is uneven, and they are very slow, although the reapers move fast, we obviously can't keep up with their speed, so I have to arrange for them to ride horses, and I let the old turtle take the elder's birdcage in the carriage.
I also led a black horse to ride, riding on the horse I learned that the horses in the original sacred tree area are fed in the basement under the sacred tree, these horses are by gnawing on the roots of the tree to sustain their life, although they only eat the roots, but they are strong and bright, mane is bright, and they look very energetic.
This time led by the big guy, after all, he was an old turtle familiar with the Xia Yin District, so our team set off like this, running wildly on the path in the forest with torches, looking back, the torches formed a long snake that was hidden in the dark forest, and there was a slight neighing sound of horses snorting one after another, which really looked like an ancient marching team.
The night wind blew a little cold on my face, and I couldn't help but wrap my cloak around my body, and we sped all the way to the gallop, the iron boots of the Iron Guards still made a loud sound in the distance, which sounded majestic, but I was a little worried that their voices were too loud.
There are almost fifty people in this attack team I organized, except for the twenty ironclad guards, the others are demigods, only Wen Ru and Ouyang, and the identity of the big guy is more special, this battle is also known to Chu Hong, she doesn't want me to take risks, and she also dissuades me from fighting, but now I can't help myself in this situation!
It took more than three hours to reach the border of the Xia Yin District, and there are still two hours before dawn!
The geographical environment of the Xia Yin District and the Divine Tree District is very different, the Divine Tree District is full of towering trees, and the giant trees and vines are dominant, but the Xia Yin District is different, this place is full of strange stones that stand tall!
Some of the stones have layers of color, and these stones form countless hills, which are filled with a faint night mist, which makes it difficult for us to observe.
The old turtle asked the army to stop for a while, and then rode to the open space in front of him, and held his throat to learn the bird's call, and after a long time, there were birds in the distance that began to respond, and about ten minutes later, two ragged recluses appeared in front of us, and they told us about the deployment of the three armies.
According to the story, I learned that their army was stationed in front of Caiyun Peak, which was not far ahead, and although the three parties were assembled, there was still some distance between them.
Stationed on the right is the Pirate Legion, in the middle is the Hidden District Clan, and on the left is the Woko Bandits. The supplies of the three armies were all placed in important positions, presumably to prevent a sneak attack, and it seems that they had foreseen this attack in advance.
The old turtle first asked the army to stop, and then he rode me and the big guy forward to get to know it, and ran with his black horse for a long time, and he took us up a small hill, from which we could see the whole picture of their army, and the clans of those guys were distributed under a high mountain, and their scattered campfires seemed to be very numerous, and in the dark night they were like stars in the sky.
We rode our horses and watched repeatedly, and suddenly I had an idea! I was thrilled with my idea, my idea was to catch a few pirates to understand the situation, and then pretend to be their men to attack the Hidden Zone, preferably set fire to their camp!
This will definitely give them the effect of pirates attacking other areas, and they will definitely kill each other because of it!
This will definitely cause chaos, and the big guy and the old turtle also think that this plan is okay, but where can we find so many props to play?
After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to make an ambush circle on the road first, and then lead the team to attack the pirate area myself, I took Wang An and Shi Liangyou with them, and only used a few people to sneak into the camp tent, first mess them up, and then take advantage of the fire to rob them to get their supplies.
Once we succeed, we will retreat towards the border area, and those guys will definitely follow, as long as they enter our ambush circle, we will take the opportunity to attack them, and this will definitely achieve good results!
The old turtle looked at me in surprise: "Master Zhao, how did you learn these strategies?"
How can I tell him that I'm playing games?
And I also concluded that although these guys are well-armed, there are not many large-scale battles on the island, they must be inexperienced, and as long as I make good use of the ancient art of war, these weirdos with magical powers are no match for them!
The big guy also touched his bare chin and smiled: "Xiao Zhao really has you, it seems that I really underestimated you." “
According to the suggestion of the big guy, I decided to arrange the ambush circle in a canyon on the border, which is located not far from the border road, and the sides are very steep, as long as the exit is sealed, the people inside will definitely not be able to escape.
So according to the boss's arrangement, I moved the team to the canyon, and then let the ironclad guards hide at the entrance and exit of the canyon.
I'm most worried about the Japanese monsters in this plan, but now I can only take one step at a time, and I try not to provoke those Japanese, because they are likely to watch the fire from the other side, after all, human nature is selfish, and this is a tripartite army, and they must be wary of each other.
I took Wang An and Shi Liangyou, as well as Zhu Chaomeng, and then called a few demigods together, and we quietly walked towards the place where the pirate area was stationed, this time the big guy insisted on joining me, he was afraid that I would get lost.
Out of an abundance of caution, I did not take the Reapers, because they would be spotted as soon as they struck, and then the armies of the three sides would concentrate their firepower against us!
Under the cover of those strange rocks, we quickly approached the camp of the pirate army, and under the light of the campfires in the dense camp, several pirates with disheveled hair were patrolling back and forth with machetes, they would stop from time to time to light cigarettes and brag, and two of them were actually playing mobile games!
After lying for a long time, Shi Liangyou made a move, his hell fist was silent, and he knocked down a pirate with one punch, and then Wang An rushed up and stabbed the pirate violently with a knife, I didn't see that this guy was so fierce, we quickly dragged the pirate's body aside, and then stripped off his clothes and put it on the big guy first.
The next one was even faster, Shi Liangyou quickly knocked down the pirates with the Hell Fist, those guys had almost no defensive power, and were directly hit by the gray mist fist, and fell to the ground without saying a word, and then we quickly caught his body, and then Wang An stabbed him fiercely.
