Chapter 273: Lightning Strike

The sky was overcast, and heavy black clouds seemed to be pressing directly overhead.

It's going to rain.

"Keep up! Before the heavy rain falls, you must reach Xiaoshi Mountain!" Wang Qinian ordered in a firm tone and with a calm momentum.

Two thousand warriors poured out of the nest and hurried past him. Except for the "click" footsteps, no one made any other sound!

This style of ordering and prohibiting is not something that can be exercised in a day or two.

In the past two years, the Zhanding Battalion has fought more than a dozen battles, large and small, and Wang Qinian has also grown from a squad leader who only knows how to act according to Chen Hao's intentions to the operational commander of the entire Zhanding Battalion.

Although it is not the first time that he has come out to provoke the people of the Cao family in Pingyuan City, Wang Qinian's attitude is still very solemn.

This time, unlike any previous battles!

In the previous battles, they were all provoked on the initiative according to Chen Hao's intentions, and the intention was to train the troops. It is impossible for any army to become an elite soldier only by relying on school drills.

Therefore, every battle was taken as soon as it was good, and although there were casualties, the size of the battle battalion still reached a full 2,000 men, thanks to the successive additions of the monks in the watch city.

But this time, the goal is different!

Chen Hao demanded that Wang Qinian must take Xiaoshishan before noon today. And after taking Xiaoshishan, he held on until he received a new order.

"Because according to the latest news from Lu Zhenbang, the current head of the Cao family, the White Tiger King Cao Zheng, died of illness last night. Now that Plains City has no time to take care of it for the time being, we must take this opportunity to get the little stone mountain in our hands!"

This time, it's no longer a hit-and-go guerrilla war!

It is not easy to seize Xiaoshi Mountain, and in recent years, the Cao family has already expanded and strengthened the camp on Xiaoshi Mountain, and it is no longer the appearance of the cottage built by a few pieces of wood.

In the past battles used for military training, Wang Qinian had made many observations of the Xiaoshishan camp. The current Xiaoshishan camp is made of solid granite, which encloses almost the entire Xiaoshishan camp. According to the size of the camp, it is estimated that at least tens of thousands of demon beasts can be stored in it!

But that's not the most difficult part of the mission.

The most difficult part of this battle is to defend Xiaoshi Mountain!

The most headache is that after taking the small stone mountain camp, you have to face a steady stream of demon beasts that are constantly fighting back.

Speaking of monks, the Cao family is not much more than Overwatch City. However, most of their monks practiced the art of taming beasts, and one person could command hundreds or thousands of demon beasts.

Even if you kill all the demon beasts, as long as the monk who tamers the beast doesn't die, he will soon be able to bring hundreds of demon beasts again!

Capturing the small stone mountain camp can take advantage of the effect of the surprise attack. But the persistence behind will be a hard attrition!

I wonder how many people will return to Overwatch Valley alive after this battle?

But Wang Qinian didn't have time to be sentimental.

Raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use soldiers for a while. Chen Hao raised them for four years, wasn't it just to win this war?

Whether it's for salt or for eternal peace after the Watch Valley, this battle must be fought.

Thundered!

A thunderclap rang out, and the golden electric snake split through the dark clouds and flickered in the air.

"Dididi!"

In the small stone mountain camp, a sharp whistle sounded, and they had already found the camp of the warriors close at hand!

"Spell weapon bombardment with all your might! Break it for me!" Wang Qinian ordered in a loud voice.

As soon as a row of demon beasts emerged on the granite wall, dense stone wall bricks fell down overwhelmingly!

Bang bang bang bang bang bang ......

The demon beasts that had just revealed their heads were all smashed into pulp!

The two-zhang stone wall bricks were still in full swing, smashing the wall, and the entire small stone mountain camp shook up.

"Concentrate all your strength and bombard one place!"

Some of the stone wall bricks were destroyed in the first bombardment. The remaining intact ones had no intention of calling them back and starting over at all, and the aura of the qi practitioners was surging wildly, and they controlled the huge stone wall bricks to rise into the air again, like a heavy iron fist, and smashed down at the camp again frantically!

The Qi Practitioners who had damaged the magic weapon didn't care, and quickly took out the second stone wall brick, controlling it to roar and fly into the air again!

In the past few years, Chen Hao's initial organization of the stone wall brick production line has not been idle. Until now, the soldiers of each battalion have at least three stone wall bricks, and there is no need to worry about the attrition at the beginning.

In the strong tremor, stone chips flew on the wall of the Xiaoshishan camp, and several thick cracks quickly appeared.

"Quick, the south wall is in danger! Quickly mobilize all the demon beasts that can be dispatched to defend!"

"Your Excellency, you can't defend it, you must rush out and fight them off!"

"Bastard, how can you open the door in this situation? Isn't that just giving the camp to them? As long as you hold on for half an hour, the nearest reinforcements will arrive!"

The defenders in the Xiaoshishan camp also began to move frantically, preparing to defend to the death.

Due to the limitations of size and provisions, it was impossible to hoard more troops in the Xiaoshishan camp. But nearby, there are several demon beast nests and spirit beast domestication farms.

Just now, the leader of the defenders had already launched 100,000 urgent fireworks into the sky, but those amassed troops were caught off guard, and counting the time for gathering and mobilizing, they would not arrive until half an hour later at the earliest.

The construction of the camp in Xiaoshi Mountain was originally to defend against the possibility that the Heavenly Dao Alliance might send people to forcibly come here again to repair the teleportation array. So as long as you can hold on for a while, even if you lose Xiaoshi Mountain in the end, after the nearby demon beasts surge, the other party has no choice but to give up.

But I didn't expect that these grandsons, who had been cowering in the Overwatch Valley, actually ate leopards and dared to attack!

Even if they take Little Stone Mountain, what use will it be?

Looking at the number of qi practitioners on the opposite side, there were more than 2,000 people!

This is seven or eight times more than the qi practitioners in the Xiaoshishan camp. But if you count the demon beasts, the strength of the Xiaoshi Mountain camp far exceeds them.

I'm afraid these people are all the monks in the Overwatch Valley, right? The leader of the camp sneered, what is the point of making such a desperate bet just to take down a camp that is destined to be undefendable?

Thundered!

The thunder sounded again and again, and the lightning flashed on the walls of the camp, and the blood of those demon beasts and the beast tamers who didn't have time to dodge was extremely dazzling!

"Iron Wall Team, it's time for you to take action! I want to see this wall destroyed within ten breaths!" Wang Qinian ordered categorically.

A lightning bolt lit up, Wang Qinian's face was illuminated, and he was no longer the little honest and naïve hairy boy he was back then. A face that is still young, already with the taste of perseverance and iron blood!

"Boom la la ......"

Accompanied by lightning, the rain poured down suddenly!
