Chapter 621: A Smooth Start
Because it was a jungle warfare, it was impossible to maintain a complete formation on the plains, so Wang Tingjun's side basically carried out scattered depth in a group of ten or twenty people, and almost every group would have at least three or more groups around each group that could be seen nearby, so as to ensure effective linkage and cooperation between each group when they encountered the enemy.

Although the 12th Division is a well-known elite unit, in fact, it is only compared to the strength level of ordinary army soldiers, which is less than half of the second order and most of the first order, in fact, the ordinary soldiers of the 12th Division are only almost all at the second order level, and there are few officers with third-order fighting strength. In such a situation, the team led by Little Wolf, the leader of the fourth-order division of the Demon Martial Arts Double Cultivation, and the adjutant, it was obvious that as long as they went all out, they would soon be able to quickly go deep into the jungle without a large army.
However, the little wolf is obviously not so stupid, not to mention that he has the responsibility as an officer to carry out temporary dispatch and command in the chaotic battle areas of the front line that cannot be ordered by the rear, even if he is unofficial and light, he will take the lead in this dangerous jungle chaos to show bravery, and in the end he will only be besieged by more and more demonic beasts in the depths of the dense forest, and he will not be able to help and be seriously injured or even killed.
"Everyone be careful! These hairy monsters move very quickly, although they only have second-order fighting energy, their teeth are quite sharp, and if they are bitten, the armor on their bodies will not be able to withstand them! The people in the front row use their shields to resist, and the archers try to find the big hairy monsters hiding in the back row first and then kill them!"
While raising his voice to remind everyone around him of the precautions related to fighting the hairy monster, the little wolf led his team to shuttle diagonally through the forest. Although he is at the forefront of the front, the little wolf is very measured and does not go deep alone from the battle line, under his observation, although the other places are not clear, but the demonic beasts encountered in their area now seem to be all hairy monsters, and it seems that the generation they attacked first should be the territory of the hairy monster race.
Although this second-order demonic beast has dangerous characteristics that do not match its appearance, but under the reminder of the little wolf and the spontaneous word of mouth among the front-line soldiers, soon the little panic when they first entered the woods and encountered the demonic beast disappeared, and the soldiers of the twelfth division, who were worthy of the word elite, steadily advanced in the forest little by little, the speed was not fast, but it was safe, and the probability of casualties was reduced very low.
"Adjutant!"
Just when the little wolf gradually calmed down about the performance of the front-line soldiers, and his side began to take the lead as a rare arrow attack point, one of the two white elf warriors equipped in the little wolf squad suddenly spoke.
"Adjutant, it seems like we're going to break through the territory of the Furry Monster soon. ”
The little wolf stopped, and looked at the white elf girl behind him with a gentle and respectful tone, I have to say that the elf clan is indeed blessed with a unique appearance, even on the battlefield with a killing sound, the smile of the white elf girl who has harvested a lot of hairy monsters along the way with a longbow still looks very clean and full of good feelings - but unfortunately, the little wolf knows that although she looks only a little older than herself, she is actually nearly two hundred years old.
"Captain Lamia, you mean ......?"
"Lord Adjutant, along the way, I have been using life magic to interact with the plants in the surrounding forest to gather information, and not far ahead, it seems that it is already the farthest distance that the hairy monster clan usually moves, and the next place seems to be entrenched in another clan that looks like a wild boar but seems to have armor on its back. ”
The little wolf frowned, in the jungle, how many times has the White Elf Clan proved that their ability to communicate with plants is definitely not a chicken skill but an ability that can really change the tide of battle, since the White Elf Squad Leader in his team who was assigned to act with him said so, then naturally there would be no fake.
Resembles a wild boar but has armor...... Little Wolf is sure that there is no such Demonic Beast in the information obtained by the various troops from the commander-in-chief before the war, that is to say, before the war, the scouts of the Wang Tingjun were obviously not able to go deep into here to find out some characteristics of this kind of Demonic Beast, and the Little Wolf himself couldn't think of any familiar Demonic Beast that matched such a description for a while.
In such a jungle battle with the Warcraft race instead of humans as the enemy, although these Warcraft are almost not as scheming as humans, but the unique environmental advantages make them really not to be underestimated, without knowing the enemy's information rashly enter the territory of those wild boar Warcraft, once those Warcraft are just like their wild boar appearance is a group of guys who are good at breaking forward or have some strange talent magic, Rao is elite such as the front line of the 12th Division will definitely be chaotic for a while...... After all, soldiers and adventurers are different from hunters, and fighting against humans and beasts are completely different things.
Oh yes, adventurers and hunters......
"Uncle Wang," the little wolf immediately called a capable veteran beside him, "I remember that you were a hunter before you joined the army, right? No, that's okay, you take a few people to the surrounding squads to see if there are any adventurers and Orion-born soldiers and call them all, it doesn't matter if no one has ever seen this kind of wild boar-like magical beast, use your experience to sort out a few tricks or precautions when dealing with magical beasts similar to wild boars and armor on their backs as quickly as possible, and then let the front-line soldiers know these as soon as possible, go quickly!"

Almost an hour had passed since the launch of the general assault on Mount Ulin.
“...... is worthy of being the son of Mufu, the original 12th Division, which was all recruits after the reconstruction, was led by him into an iron-blooded elite in less than ten years. ”
On the viewing platform of the big tent at the foot of the mountain, the commander-in-chief said with emotion from afar that the king happened to be on the hillside in front of the main camp.
Of course, in this era when no one has yet researched physical optics and invented telescopes, standing at the foot of the mountain and looking at the battle that takes place in the dense forest halfway up the mountainside may be something that some strange magic can do, but it is impossible for a pure seventh-order fighting spirit hero like Lord Commander-in-Chief to do it, at best, he can only see a large number of figures shaking in the distance in the dense forest, and from time to time yellow, green, and blue fighting energy light emerges from between the leaves.
In the center of the viewing platform behind the commander-in-chief, there was a row of communication stones on the table, which were the long-range communication stones that the royal court had purchased from the northern land at a high price through the channels of smuggling merchants in the north, and originated from a genius magician named "Qiu Qi" in the kingdom of Loris in the far west. It is precisely through these communication stones, which are in the hands of the leaders of the various armies at the other end, that the commander-in-chief can accurately grasp the situation and then stand here and pretend to be a guide to the battle situation.
Speaking of which, these magic guide communication stones are also related to the little wolf, in fact, compared with the Western Continent, the magic guide engineering in the East Continent is not developed, and the development of magic guide engineering is even still at the level of the West Continent, the birthplace of magic guide engineering, at the beginning of the magic guide era, not to mention the magic guide communication stone, they are even still suspecting that the magic guide airship used by the smugglers in the northern mountain range every time is actually supported by some kind of magic or secret magic array, rather than simply using some spars to make loops and energy magic crystals that can be driven。
After Sakura and the little wolf returned from studying in the Western Continent, the little wolf saw the magic communication stone that Cherus gave to Sakura and Zhishi for long-distance contact and chat, and immediately thought of how such a magic communication stone would bring to the army and rule of the royal court in a place where magic communication is not well developed in the Eastern Continent, where communication is all dependent on flying birds to pass on books and fast horses, This magic guide device similar to the otherworldly version of the pager was immediately brought to the royal court by the happy Mu Yang for advertising, and finally decided to be purchased by the royal court to apply it to the government management and military affairs of the royal court.
Not to mention other aspects, let's just say that in the previous counterinsurgency civil war and the current two major battles of the southeast conquest, the effect of this magic guide communication stone completely made the commander-in-chief taste the sweetness. The lag in information and intelligence has always been a big problem on the battlefield, and when this problem is solved by the magic guide communication stone that can transmit information instantly, many battlefield decisions have become much easier, and the commander-in-chief has more opportunities to pretend to be a big one.
I just received the information that the army led by the Twelfth Division of Mu Zefeng and the mountain attack troops on the west side have been steadily fighting step by step and are about to break through the wild pine forest, and they will soon be able to launch an attack on the fortress of the Four Holy Sects on Zifeng, the Lord Marshal is in a very good mood, as for the road on the east side, it seems that a group of slightly tricky Warcraft races have fallen into an unexpected hard battle, but this so-called hard battle is only relative to the other two roads that are overwhelming, it is estimated that as long as there is another hour or so, the battle over there will almost be over。
Everything went well, first put down the rebellion of King Huaide, and now he has taken back the eight southeastern counties in one breath so easily, such a merit may not be comparable even to the Mu general who is now in the military department relying on his former military exploits and the emperor's trust, although he has no intention of competing for favor and power with the emperor's support behind the emperor's support, but the pride in his heart is still difficult to suppress, after all, since the independence of the two kings, the Phoenix Royal Court has only been continuously sucked away by those shadow princes for hundreds of years without regaining it, and pacifying the eight southeast counties in one go, although this is indeed a great opportunity for him to catch up, but it is always a great achievement to expand the territory.
Just when the commander-in-chief was standing there with a little pride, Wang Tingguo slowly walked up to the viewing platform from the back stairs.
“...... Your Excellency the Commander-General. ”
"Oh, it's His Royal Highness, what's the matter?"
Looking at the obviously relaxed look on the commander-in-chief's face, the corner of the national teacher's mouth smiled slightly, and then his face sank.
"Your Excellency, there is something that worries me. ”
"Oh? ”
"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, the reason why we were able to capture the eight southeastern counties controlled by the Four Holy Sects in one fell swoop without being interfered by other shadow princes' forces is because the White Elf Clan identified the Four Holy Sect's war-aiding demonic beasts on the counterinsurgency battlefield as a relationship between the Chaos Demonic Beasts, but now, our army has directly hit the foot of the Four Holy Sects' old nest, Wulin Mountain, and is even about to break through the first line of defense that they are proud of, but we have never encountered those fallen demonic beasts that have been identified by the White Elf Clan, don't you think it's strange?”
After all, the commander-in-chief is a leading general with real talent and learning, although he was a little carried away and a little lax before, but now he was reminded by the national teacher, and he suddenly woke up.
“...... The national teacher is worried that those monsters will be stored by the Four Holy Sects in the headquarters or in the fortress of Zifeng, and when we attack there, the Four Holy Churches will release those monsters to meet them?"
"Well, I haven't seen the Four Holy Sects use these magical beasts along the way, but according to the rumors we have heard from the prisoners of war who tortured the Four Holy Sects and from the mouths of some civilians who have lived here for generations, those magical beasts that are suspected of being elves as fallen monsters do exist, and they are called Dharma Protector Beasts in the Four Holy Sects, and their original duty was to serve as a guard force in some secret locations of the Four Holy Sects, and later the incident happened, according to the cadres of the Four Holy Sects, those magical beasts were all summoned back to Wulin Mountain by the Four Holy Sect Leader Hei Peng at that time......
The national teacher stopped in the middle of his words, and the commander-in-chief had already understood what he meant, frowning, the commander-in-chief looked up at the fierce light that appeared from time to time in the dense forest halfway up the mountain in the distance, and then spoke.
"National Teacher, those fallen demonic beasts are really that powerful?"
In the battle to counter the rebellion, the battle where the Four Holy Sects first revealed those monsters to the world, the commander-in-chief actually did not come to command at that time but was leading the troops to engage the rebels on another battlefield, so although the commander-in-chief received the post-battle casualty report and the report that the wounded were cursed by the demons, it was only some data after all.
Judging from the data, those fallen demonic beasts did cause damage to the battle formation of the Wang Tingjun at that time, but there were too many accidents on the battlefield, and the attrition of that battle was not so much that the fallen demonic beasts were too fierce, and the commander-in-chief felt that it was better to say that the appearance of those monsters was too sudden and the appearance was too strange and terrifying, which would catch the soldiers of the Wang Tingjun who were not psychologically prepared at that time off guard, and were killed and injured by those monsters one after another in the panicked retreat.
If you are mentally prepared to face it head-on......
“...... Wait a minute, I'll use the communication stone to contact and warn the various military horses, but I think there shouldn't be any problem, Your Highness, after all, the warriors of the White Elf Clan are now also mixed in various teams. ”
