The negotiator sent by Xiang Ningxuan is called Sheng Yi, who is the first batch of senior talents recruited in the Red Leaf District, who is proficient in business negotiation before the end of the day, quick thinking, and eloquence. As soon as it came up, it showed an aggressive momentum, and all kinds of conditions completely pointed to Casper's bottom line.

Although Casper is knowledgeable, he is still not as good as a professional in negotiation. In addition to insisting on autonomy and the territory of Liumingshan, other conditions can only be constantly received.

But the more this happened, the more he felt that humans negotiated in good faith. Moreover, he also learns that these humans face an even more powerful threat from the undead. Therefore, what humanity wants most is the research results of necromancy and cannon fodder troops.

Sheng Yi bit to death, wanted to share all the necromancy techniques in the cemetery, and asked them to recruit at most 80% of their low-level core troops and 30% of their mid-level elite classes in a state of war.

After a heated argument, the two sides finally reached an agreement. Liumingshan became the dominion of these cemetery heroes and recognized Xiang Ningxuan as the great lord. The Dominions paid a certain amount of taxes each year and were obliged to send troops in a state of war.

And Xiang Ningxuan promised to give them fair treatment in accordance with the principle of taking responsibility with strength and getting more for more work.

The soul contract was signed that night, and it was agreed that one more day would be prepared, and on the morning of the third day, troops would be sent to deal with the soul reapers.

On May 25, it was cloudy with light rain.

Although the weather conditions are not good, the campaign plan cannot be changed. Early in the morning, 2,000 main soldiers from the elite regiment, the first, second, and eighth brigades, 200 backbones from other brigades, more than 3,000 people from the ** aviation squadron, the fourth brigade of the engineering corps, and auxiliary troops and militia such as medical logistics, converged with five tanks supported by the tank regiment, and under the command of Chu Xiongtian, Shen Rui, and Shen Tao, they slaughtered at Zhuque Mountain. While destroying the scattered Soul Reaver troops, they also repaired the bunkers and fought steadily and steadily, step by step.

This is the largest force ever made by the fourth detachment. And unlike the division of troops during the Battle of Jiangcheng, this time it was the Soul Snatcher forces that had a unified organization to deal with. A force of more than 5,000 people needs to advance in a group as a whole.

The goal of this operation is not only to annihilate the soul snatchers, but also to train troops and accumulate experience in large-scale operations.

Although Chu Xiongtian is the chief of staff of the lieutenant colonel, he has never commanded so many people to fight, and the staff is full of rookies. There are a lot of things, plus inconvenient communication and insufficient training, and there are a lot of problems.

This is also Chu Xiongtian's basic skills, and he can barely cope with it, if Xiang Ningxuan is allowed to command, I don't know what kind of basket will come out!

At the same time, the cemetery dispatched a force of up to 15,000 troops to attack Shangyuan Mountain from Liuming Mountain, led by his old friend Casper.

In other words, it is much easier to command the undead troops, and a necromancer in Caspar with more than 30 lichs and vampires can command an army of 15,000, and there is no logistics, no rest, no casualties, and no pensions. It is indeed an excellent cannon fodder necessary for home travel and killing.

The two armies attacked in unison, aiming directly at the valley between Mt. Shangyuan and Mt. Suzaku. It was originally home to a giant seven-story columbarium that has been transformed into a Soul Reaver's lair.

By one o'clock at noon, the two armies had already started their own battles for the commanding heights of Suzaku Mountain and Shangyuan Mountain. If the Soul Reaver doesn't move, he'll be trapped in the valley.

The Soul Reaver, who had been standing still, was finally dispatched. Led by a golden Death Handmaiden nearly ten meters tall, the main forces of the Soul Reavers were all assembled.

The Death Handmaiden is a close attendant of the Angel of Death, Masayar, and wields a giant two-handed Scythe of Death. Harvesting souls cruelly and mercilessly is what they love to do.

A tall and strong punisher, a chubby evil spirit, a hellhound the size of a truck, an exorcist with only the upper body in the electric light, a corpse controller with bones and wings on his back, and a spiritist with a rickety figure. The main forces of these Soul Reavers were mixed in an army of tens of thousands of skeletons, and they rushed towards the human army of Suzaku Mountain.

At the same time as the Soul Reavers were dispatched, Chu Xiongtian had ordered the entire army to turn into a defensive state.

Tian Tingfeng led the engineering troops to full skills, and before the arrival of the Soul Reaper army, he built a half-moon-shaped defensive position composed of a large number of breastworks and trenches according to local conditions. Subsequently, the engineering units withdrew to the rear and continued to build a second line of defense.

An artillery company formed from more than a dozen artillery pieces in the warehouses of the national strategic reserve was the first to open fire. However, they have been formed for too short a time, and they do not have professional artillery instructors, so Chu Xiongtian's only request to them is not to bomb their own people.

The rumbling cannon fire kicked off the battle, and although it didn't kill a few soldiers, the Soul Reaver accelerated its charge for a moment.

The group charge of tens of thousands of skeletons all over the mountains and fields was spectacular. The skeletons of the Soul Reavers are significantly different from the skeletons of the Graveyard, they emit a pale blue fluorescence and are more agile. There are two main types of necro warriors who hold swords and shields and boneless archers who use bows and arrows.

Far from the range of their bows, these bone archers could only follow the charge.

"Boom!" Two helicopter gunships fired anti-tank missiles and rockets in an instant. Since the pilots of these two helicopters are Elite heroes, they don't even have to return to the ground to reload, they only need to consume system currency and some time to reload. Therefore, they still hovered over their own troops, using nose guns to strafe wildly.

One punisher and two hellhounds were killed by anti-tank missiles, and some were wounded. And the explosion of the rocket knocked over hundreds of skeletons. The fire of the guns was also very ferocious, and the skeletons that were hit were all torn apart.

However, such an attack fell on the tide of Soul Reavers, like a pebble falling into a pond, making a splash, and then quickly calmed down.

The Soul Reaver's counterattack soon came, and the electric light on the bodies of more than a dozen exorcists skyrocketed, and they were ready to prepare for ultra-long-range attacks.

"Bang!" A sniper bullet slammed into the head of an exorcist, causing his stored electricity to spiral out of control and shatter like a plasma bomb.

Shen Tao quickly shifted the target of the sniper and blew up another exorcist.

But more than a dozen exorcists still completed the energy storage, and the open hands on the left and right closed to the middle, and the blazing white electric light on their bodies turned into sharp arrows and flew out.

The two helicopters scrambled to dodge, but the lightning arrows were so fast that a small half of the attack hit the target.

A helicopter was knocked out of the left landing gear and missile nest, shook and hurriedly withdrew to the rear.

The other was not so lucky, the propeller and tail were attacked, and they shook violently in the air. The pilot used his skills to barely keep the plane from falling, and then randomly found a piece of open space in the rear and forced to land in embarrassment. His blood volume is not low, and a fall will not kill the pilot.

On the front of the battlefield, the Soul Reaver strikers approached the first line of defense, and the hand-to-hand confrontation was about to begin.
