Chapter Twenty-Nine: Smoke Everywhere

The flames of war were ignited at the same time.

On this night, Yi. The core of the Slan Jihadist Army launched raids on the positions and camps of Doomsday Phoenix from multiple locations.

The same religious armed forces, Mu. The individual combat power of the S* Warriors may not be as strong as the Heavenly Punishment Knights of the Heavenly Gate, but they are more numerous and more insane, and they suddenly pour out of the darkness like locusts.

Although the Phoenix army was on guard, it faced a team of 100 people. The S* Shi raided, and the losses were still not small under the hasty engagement.

Cooperate with Mu. The raid of the S. S. Nearly 20,000 Jihadist fighters from the regular forces of the Silan Jihadist Army launched a fierce assault on the frontline positions southwest of Phoenix.

This army has obviously undergone long-term military training and actual combat training, and its combat power is stronger than the Bright Heaven and Tianjin City armies that the Phoenix City army has recruited, and even more than the Bright Army directly under the Illuminati.

At the beginning of the battle, the Phoenix army was defeated one after another, and it did not stop the defeat after retreating into the territory of the country for forty or fifty kilometers, and finally stopped because the Holy War Army suddenly stopped the offensive.

Not only the southwest battlefield, but at about the same time, the military camp outside Ili City in the northwest battlefield of Phoenix City was also raided by the Guangming Army.

Artillery fire lit up the night sky in the middle of the night, and countless shells fell on the barracks in Phoenix. The shelling lasted for an hour, and the shells almost ploughed several square kilometers of the military camp surface, and countless supplies and vehicles were blown up.

The armored forces of Phoenix were hastily withdrawn at the beginning of the shelling, otherwise they would have suffered heavy losses.

After the shelling, the ground began to tremble slightly.

Hundreds of armored vehicles were in front, and tens of thousands of soldiers of the Bright Army wearing exoskeleton armor followed closely behind, stepping on neat steps, and rushing towards the Phoenix City military camp with great momentum.

Sparse counter-artillery fire came from the Phoenix Barracks*, but the firing point soon drew a counterattack from the Bright Army's armored forces. After another round of shelling, there was no more artillery fire in the barracks.

The armored troops of the Bright Army rushed into the Phoenix City barracks unimpeded. The huge barracks were empty except for bomb craters, broken tents, and military supplies. The Phoenix army disappeared under the noses of the Light Army.

The white reindeer slowly stepped into the barracks, and the King of Light on the reindeer was silent.

The punch he had been accumulating for a long time actually hit the air, which made the King of Light feel angry.

"Your Highness, look."

Heinrich suddenly pointed to several long cave-ins in the barracks, which eventually coalesced and stretched out of the barracks.

"This is the Phoenix army withdrawing from the underground, and after retreating, the tunnel collapsed and caused the earth and rock to collapse, so it stands to reason that they shouldn't be able to run far?"

Douglas. Rothschild rode a tall horse, followed closely behind the King of Light, and analyzed the deep ditch in front of him.

Elder Li, Aiden. Onassis, Ryan. Rothschild, Deren and other second-order powerhouses all followed.

"Phoenix City has prepared a means of retreat in advance, and there may be other means in the future, do you say we will chase or not?" The Light King's gaze passed over everyone and fell directly on Delen, who was standing at the back.

Although Deren is a genius of the Li family and a well-known figure among the younger generation, compared to the status of the King of Light in the Illuminati, he is a heaven and an earth.

Seeing that the King of Light took the initiative to ask for his opinion, De Lun was stunned for a moment, then reacted and immediately bowed down, "The conventional weapons of the Phoenix City army are more than a grade worse than ours, with my previous understanding of Chi Hua, he will definitely not fight hard with us in the regular troops." As His Highness expected, whether it is an ambush or reinforcements, Phoenix City must still have hidden means, and if I lead the troops, I will definitely not rush to pursue them. ”

The King of Light nodded lightly, "Young man, it's rare not to be confused by the situation on the battlefield, and to be so thoughtful in all aspects. ”

Then he turned back to Douglas, Heinrich, Aiden and the others: "The Bright Army cooperated with the Knights Templar and the private armies of various families to disperse the pursuit, hunt freely, and investigate the movements and intentions of the Phoenix army. ”

And all the people were commanded to say yes.

"Remember, don't fight hard when you encounter the main force of Phoenix City or Chi Hua himself, and report back quickly."

The King of Light gave another command, and then drove the reindeer directly back to the city, leaving only everyone looking at each other.

After the last battle with Chi Hua, the King of Light seemed to have lost his desire to win all of a sudden, that is, he was not in a hurry to go out to fight to save face, nor did he gather everyone to discuss how the war should be fought, and closed the door in the room all day.

Even in today's battle, after consulting only Delenn alone, he gave up the pursuit of the whole army and dispersed the military power to the various families.

However, the attitude of the various families present towards the King of Light was very welcome, and now the military focus of the three families was on the Chinese battlefield, and they all wanted to take advantage of this to reap greater benefits.

The Illuminati have always distributed benefits according to their merits, and now the forces of the three families are gathered together, and when they are distributed, they must be distributed equally. If they lead the troops, the amount of profit they make depends on their ability.

Even within the same family, Douglas and Ryan are in competition with each other, and the outcome of this battle is directly related to their ranking among the family heirs.

Ryan, who is at the bottom of the position, is even more eager to show himself, hoping to squeeze out the position of Douglas's first heir in one fight. So after saying hello to everyone, he took nearly a hundred evolutionaries under his command and hurriedly chased down the collapsed tunnel.

"It's still too tender!" Douglas looked at Ryan's back and pouted, then turned to Heinrich and smiled: "My troops are not familiar with the local environment, and I hope to follow Captain Heinrich in the next battle, I don't know if the regiment commander minds." ”

Heinrich chuckled, "General Douglas, if you're not worried about us Templars diluting your credit, I'm fine." ”

"Captain Heinrich said with a smile, the purpose of the war is to win, and no matter whose merit it is, it is the victory of the Illuminati."

Heinrich nodded secretly in his heart, Douglas deserved to be the first in line of succession of the Rothschild family, not only mature but also long-term. In the position of the first heir, he thinks more about how not to make mistakes than to fight for merit.

"I've been reluctant since I was attacked by the Phoenix army last time, and tonight I want to learn the Phoenix Lord's methods again, I wonder if General Glass is willing to continue the pursuit with me?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and together they led the troops out of the Phoenix City barracks.

Seeing that the Rothschilds and the Knights Templar had rushed out of the barracks one after another, the Elder Li looked at Delen.

The Li family insisted on sending Delun to China again, mainly because he was familiar with the local situation, especially because he had many battles with Doomsday Phoenix, so even the family elders relied on him.

Seeing the elder looking over, De Lun understood what the other party meant, "I already told the King of Light just now, if I lead the troops, I will not be in a hurry to pursue them overnight. But if the elder wants to chase after me, I will naturally follow my orders. ”

The Li family elder was still a little unwilling to ask, "Chi Hua and his Phoenix City army are really as powerful as you say?" My Li family has brought three hundred family evolutionary elites this time, if they are afraid of being ambushed and cowering, wouldn't they want the other families in the council to see the jokes. ”

"The two elders, Nelson and Dylan, were defeated by the Phoenix army one after another anyway, and the 'Flame Verdict' of the King of Light was also shattered under Chi Hua's sword, but how Chi Hua and his Phoenix army were, it still needs to be measured by the elders themselves." Delenn said expressionlessly.

The elder of the Li family rolled his eyes, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "If I hadn't personally seen the methods of the Phoenix City Lord, I would still be unwilling after all!" ”

The various families of the Illuminati and their subordinate knights and the Bright Army all have an arrogance, which has gradually accumulated over the past hundred years. In their eyes, no matter how great a hero or a mighty army is, they can't escape the methods of the Illuminati and are toyed with.

All the families led their troops to chase after them, but Aiden remained unmoved.

The so-called once bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of the well rope, he has suffered the losses of Phoenix City and Chi Hua, and the arrogance on his body has long been smoothed out by Chi Hua and the Phoenix City army all the way to chase and kill.

Aiden suddenly realized a problem, "The elites of each family scattered and pursued, although it can prevent the main force of the Bright Army from falling into danger, but doesn't the division of troops also give Phoenix City a chance to break through?" If you meet Chi Hua alone, don't say that you hunt freely, you will immediately become the prey! ”

Thinking of this, Aiden's body shivered.

......

China's southeastern border.

The border defense line of Dawning City was violently attacked by strange troops, and the defense line was broken down in a short time. An army of 50,000 or 60,000 men broke through the defense line and entered Guangxi.

The composition of the army was somewhat strange, with a mix of Vietnamese, Thai, and Malays, as well as a significant number of Europeans. Military uniforms and weapons and equipment are also varied, with full-body field uniforms and modern armies holding fully automatic weapons; There are also futuristic armies dressed in exoskeleton armor and armed with laser weapons, as well as a large number of ancient armies wrapped in animal skins and armor and armed with various cold weapons.

It was such an army that slaughtered the human survivors in the settlements, young and old, slaughtered all the human survivors in the settlements, looted food and supplies, and destroyed the initial production and infrastructure again. The army passed like locusts crossing the border, leaving not a single straw behind.

A burly fat man with a black half-face mask swayed into the camp where the flames had not yet burned out, looking at the corpses and charred and dilapidated buildings of the camp, and his eyes showed a bloodthirsty light.

"Let the Li family, the Onassis family and a few of them fight in the northwest to their heart's content, what I lost before, my Collins family will get it back this time!" The fat man looked up to the sky and laughed.

The man had laughed enough, and was about to turn away, when he glanced at the corpse of a soldier at the base of the wall.

"Is the Doomsday Phoenix Army's uniform cyan?"

"Tell the head of the family, this is not the camp of Doomsday Phoenix City, it is from Eastern Dawn City?" An evolutionary replied.

The man suddenly let out an angry roar, "Bastard! What did you say? You repeat! ”
