Chapter 304: Planning a Night Attack

In one of the largest courtyards in the west of the Northern Desert City, Yao Yue had already learned from Duan Tao about the current form of battle between the imperial army and the Shura Dynasty.

In the past six months, the Shura Dynasty has not been in a hurry to continue attacking the city, but is consolidating the territory they occupy, only occasionally coming to attack once or twice.

This is not a large-scale attack, and it can be said that the two armies are in a situation of confrontation with each other for the time being.

The Imperial Army launched three large-scale attacks to capture the North Wind City occupied by the Shura Demons, but these three times were in vain!

Now the Shura Demon is in full swing, and in the near future, the Shura Demon is only afraid that it will come on a large scale!

These are all Duan Tao's clear guesses!

"Young master, those Shura demons are extremely strong, and they are not afraid of life and death, just like a dead man, I can't be the opponent of the army head-on, when General Long Wu was here in the past, he basically used temptation to ambush, or surprise soldiers to attack and kill the Shura demons did not dare to attack! Now that General Long Wu is gone, Marshal Taijun still owes some heat in terms of arranging the array to kill!" Duan Tao said, paused and said. However, our volunteer army usually does not clash head-on with the Shura demons in general, and they are only selected sneak attacks to be better natural enemies and self-protection, otherwise we will not have enough people to see at all!"

After Yao Yue listened to Duan Tao's words, he asked Guan Changyun and Zhang Mengfei, "What do the two brothers think?"

Guan Changyun continued, "Leader Duan's words are right, the Shura Demon is not afraid of life and death, and a head-on conflict is not a good plan, I think that the next time the two armies fight, we will take the opportunity to touch the bottom of the Shura Demon and then make a decision! It's really hard to say what to do now!"

"The most important thing for the Shura demons is their physical strength, if you can find their weak points and attack, you will definitely be able to do it!" Zhang Mengfei said.

At this time, Duan Tao said, "There are only two weaknesses of the Shura demons, that is, their hearts and heads, ordinary weapons in other places can not be injured, but they also know their weaknesses, and the heart and head will focus on defense, so, unless they are superior in strength, otherwise they will be able to defeat them lightly", after a pause, he said again, "If it weren't for the 'Demon Slayer Cannon' in my court, the entire Northern Plains Dynasty would have fallen long ago!"

Yao Yue, Guan Changyun and Zhang Mengfei all understood what the "Demon Slayer Cannon" in Duan Tao's mouth was.

It is a cannon cast by a number of senior refiners, which can be called the top king soldiers, but they are bulky and difficult to move, so they can only be set up in the position of defending the city, and then use the magic crystal or demon core power to urge, launch the power of destroying the miè, which can kill and injure the enemy in a large area, and any king who is hit by it will only fall, and its power can be called terrifying!

It's just that every time you want to use the Demon Exterminator, you need a lot of magic crystals or demon cores, otherwise you won't be able to exert its power at all.

The magic crystal or demon core is an energy essence that only the Shura Demon King or the Demon King can gather, how rare it is, and I don't know how many Shura Demon Kings or Demon Kings have to be killed to be able to use the Demon Destroying Cannon several times in a row.

Despite this, there is a demon exterminator, but it can deter many Shura demons, and they dare not rush to kill in a big way.

Now these four demon slaying cannons are being placed on the wall of the gate of the Northern Desert City, facing the direction of the Shura Demon Man.

It is precisely because these four demon exterminators are here, and they each fired once half a year ago, killing countless Shura demons, that the Shura army retreated, otherwise this Northern Desert City would have been gone for a long time.

Yao Yue asked Duan Tao, "Leader Duan, how many volunteers can you call in your name?"

Duan Tao replied, "At most a thousand people, the others are used to free and loose abuse, and it is not easy to command!"

"A thousand people, that's enough!" Yao Yue replied lightly, and then he said, "You take out the nearby topographic map, as well as the scattered situation of many Shura demons, and explain it carefully, we have to take the initiative!"

"What, what, let's take the initiative? This, this is absolutely not good!" Duan Tao said in surprise, and then immediately objected!

Yao Yue looked at Duan Tao and asked, "Are you afraid of death?"

Duan Tao shook his head and said, "We are not afraid of death, but we are going to die by doing this!

After his voice fell, Yan Yan also spoke, "Young Master, I have been on the Shura battlefield with the leader for two or three years, and I still know the strength of the Shura demons very well, not to mention whether we can kill them, but once we leave the city, it will be even more difficult to return to the city again! This is the case with Leader Qiao now, the people he led have not returned for more than a month, and I heard that they are being forced to flee in all directions by the Shura demons, and their life and death are unknown!"

The leader of Qiao in Yan Yan's mouth is Qiao Xuan, his strength is still above Duan Tao, and he is the big leader of the Volunteer Army, but Qiao Xuan doesn't care about this identity, and he doesn't have the heart to pay attention to this, this is just the respect of the Volunteer Army for him!

"I understand what you are worried about, I will not rush to send troops now, but study the terrain first, and then make plans! I will not let everyone die in vain, and I don't want to die myself!" Yao Yue said confidently.

Yao Yue understood that Yan Yan was right, but he already had a plan in his heart, although he was in a hurry, but as long as he arranged it properly, he would definitely be able to kill the Shura Demon by surprise, and he could achieve the effect of a surprise soldier!

He is using the art of war: surprise, attack unprepared!

It's just that the only thing to worry about is the problem of retreat, which has to be considered in the long run!

When Duan Tao and Yan Yan saw Yao Yue say this, they could only take the topographic map and began to give Yao Yue a clear picture of the terrain outside the North Desert City and near the North Wind City.

A day passed, and Yao Yue already knew all the Shura Demon people and all the terrain nearby!

He called everyone back, leaving only Guan Changyun and Zhang Mengfei.

"Look at what this place is!" Yao Yue asked, pointing to a location on the map.

"This is a remote town in North Wind City, there is nothing special about it!" Zhang Mengfei said first.

Guan Changyun watched attentively and did not speak, with a thoughtful look between his eyebrows.

After a while, he exclaimed, "This town is a good place to attack and retreat!"

"The second brother has a vision, you are right, this place is surrounded by mountains, we want to take here, we can retreat here, come to lure you into the urn, I am not afraid that they will be able to escape! Besides, there are not many Shura demons stationed here, after all, this is some distance from the North Wind City, and it is not far from the North Desert City, we can use this as a guard, besides, this boss still has secret means to deal with them, as long as the other party demon king does not come much, we can basically worry-free!" Yao Yue said with confidence.

Guan Changyun's eyes lit up and exclaimed, "You can use the empty city plan!"

"Let's wait until we take here, we must fight this battle beautifully!But the danger is also very great, if the other party dispatches the powerful Shura Demon King, we will be very troublesome!" Yao Yue reminded, and then he said, "As long as we take this place, we can destroy the momentum of the Shura Demon Man, which can boost the momentum of our army, and it will be of great help to attack the North Wind City!"

"That's right, if you don't look closely, it's really hard to find this good place," Guan Changyun replied excitedly, and then he said, "I'm afraid that other people don't have the guts to reach this town from us, I'm afraid that I will be intercepted and killed by many Shura demons!"

"We are here to kill the enemy, and only then can we kill our momentum!" Zhang Mengfei said on the side.

"Well, the third child is right, we will attack tonight and fight quickly!" Yao Yue said impatiently.

I have to say that the three of them are not afraid of tigers when they are newborns!

I dare to think of such a risky idea, you need to know that this method has been proposed a long time ago, but no one dares to take the risk and take action.

Because before you want to kill this town, you have to face the resistance of thousands of Shura demons, and you have to break through these thousands of Shura demons to capture this town, and there must be Shura Demon King sitting in the formation, which is really not easy to do!

After Duan Tao and Yan Yan listened to Yao Yue's proposal, both of them objected!

But Yao Yue took out the majesty of his young master and forcibly decided on this mention!

Duan Tao and Yan Yan could only admit it, but in their hearts, they were very disappointed in this young master, such a decision was too irrational!

A thousand volunteers quietly gathered together!

These are all followers of Duan Tao and Yan Yan, who are willing to work for them!

These people are all full of evil spirits, all of them are people who have come back alive from the battlefield of Shura, and they all have a ruthlessness that is not afraid of death!

It's just that these people, some have mounts, some don't, and some are injured, and it's not a complete team!

In the end, Yao Yue left the two hundred people who were wounded, and took only eight hundred people and headed out of the city.

The generals defending the city blocked the way of Yao Yue and the others, and one of them shouted, "What are you doing here?"

Duan Tao spoke for Yao Yue and said, "General Du, please open the city gate, we have to go outside the city!"

"It turned out to be the Duan leader, and now it's already night, are you going to attack the Shura Demon at night?" The general was also familiar with Duan Tao, and asked very politely.

"Hehe, is there anything else to do besides killing the Shura Demon Man?" Duan Tao asked with a faint smile.

"We are worthy of Leader Duan's courage, but after you go out, it will not be so easy to come back, have you thought about it carefully?" the general reminded.

"I'm bothered, we have plans, please open the door!" Duan Tao said again.

The general also knew that these volunteers were unrestrained, so he had the gates opened.

It's just that when he gave the order, his eyes couldn't help but sweep towards Yao Yue's face, and he secretly said in his heart, "This horse master is really bold, I hope he won't die on the battlefield so soon, otherwise General Long Wu is afraid that he will go crazy!"

Yao Yue and the others all went out of the city, and they were finally ready to usher in the first battle with the Shura Demon Man!
