A Slaughterhouse of Flesh and Blood

The Soaring Flood Dragon Army is an elite legion established by Jiang Shiyan in imitation of the Yulin Guard. It has only two or three thousand members, but each of them is a beginner-level professional.

Only a thousand men accompanied the army on this expedition, but they were Li Meng's trump card!

From the castles carried on the backs of the five Mountain-Bearing Turtle, one by one, the professionals leaped down and quickly arrived at the front line, coordinating with their own battle groups to attack the enemy lines.

Lin Xu, observing this scene through the Lord Authority, brightened up. "Finally, they've taken the bait! Dao soldiers stepped forward to hold the line, and the 10th Dao Regiment prepared..."

The alchemy workshops of the elite have brought about dramatic changes to the territory. For example, the simplified version of the Sharp Wind Flag in the hands of the Daoists has directly transformed a group of clumsy magic novices into deadly hunters.

Enduring the humiliation of being suppressed and beaten, he was simply waiting for a crucial opportunity—

But at this moment, the enemy formation changed again. With the command flag moving, the advancing lines began to surround the bastion, like a crab extending its two large pincers, trying to destroy the ballistae and catapults deployed in the bastion in one fell swoop!

Two kilometers away, two Mountain-Bearing Turtle were moving forward at a leisurely pace, their huge feet landing on the ground and creating a crater several meters in diameter. The massive mobile castle was slowly approaching.

At almost the same time, thousands of light cavalry, led by more than three hundred heavy cavalry, slowly broke away from the army formation, attempting to bypass the frontal defenses of the bastion and launch a surprise attack from the flank and rear!

Lin Xu's gaze sharpened. After the initial probing, the enemy had finally launched a full-scale offensive!

"The enemy general has reacted!" He immediately adjusted the tactics, "The horde of corpses, prepare to meet the cavalry attack!"

The corpse drivers then directed the group of corpses to turn and charge towards the enemy cavalry.

A certain unlucky enemy squad happened to be positioned on the front line of the zombie horde's attack. When the bouncing zombies launched a surprise attack from the flank, a large number of enemy soldiers were overwhelmed by the zombies falling from the sky.

The corpse's sharp teeth were comparable to those of a magical artifact with spirit patterns. The soldier's tough leather armor was pierced like paper, his life force was drained, and a living person withered away in the blink of an eye.

The military formation, which was ambushed by the horde of zombies, was almost powerless to resist. These zombies had all reached the Purple Zombie realm, and their flesh was as tough as iron. Ordinary military knives could only leave shallow wounds when they were cut, posing no threat whatsoever.

Within a dozen breaths, this thousand-strong battle group was completely routed, and the demoralized soldiers quickly scattered.

They "casually" routed a battle group, and the zombies intercepted the enemy cavalry with a straight-line assault.

Xu Yueming frowned as he glanced at the horde of leaping, reanimated corpses. "Let's go!"

Without any intention of engaging, the heavy cavalry, despite being clad in heavy armor, moved with the agility of light cavalry, tracing an arc far ahead to avoid being intercepted by the horde of undead, and continued to circle around the fortress in search of an opportunity to strike.

"Have the Corpse Reaper horde enter the fortress and await orders!" Lin Xu decisively gave the order upon seeing the agile cavalry.

The horde of undead swiftly changed direction and rapidly approached the fortress.

At this moment on the battlefield, the two Mountain-Bearing Turtle had reached a distance of nearly 1,500 meters, and were beginning to threaten the front line.

The spirit-patterned catapults on the fortress had already turned, aiming at the ever-approaching giant tortoise.

The four battle groups that launched the frontal attack were the ones that threatened our lines earlier.

The war-experienced Soaring Flood Dragon Army did not attempt to launch an independent attack, but instead used the cover of ordinary soldiers to launch a surprise attack from within the lines.

With the cover of cannon fodder, except for a few unlucky ones who were hit by crossbow bolts, the rest successfully advanced to engage the enemy.

Li Meng eagerly raised his binoculars, hoping to see his side break through the enemy's defenses with overwhelming force.

However, hundreds of the Soaring Flood Dragon Army charged forward on the battlefield without hesitation, attempting to break through the center of the army formation, only to run headfirst into the heavily armored Daoist soldiers who were stepping into the front line.

"Click~"

For a moment, Li Meng almost thought he heard the sound of an egg breaking— the Soaring Flood Dragon Army, which had launched a charge, had crashed into an impenetrable wall!

"Whoosh~"

That was the sound of a halberd piercing the air.

"Clang~"

It was a brief sound of metal breaking.

The Soul-Devouring Halberd severed weapons and pierced through iron armor. In the blink of an eye, the first batch of twenty or thirty of the fastest-charging Soaring Flood Dragon Army were cleaved in two diagonally!

"What?" Li Meng's binoculars trembled as he looked incredulously.

Then, more than four hundred heavily armored Daoist soldiers stepped forward, wielding their halberds and killing dozens of soldiers. Among them were more than a dozen Soaring Flood Dragon Army wearing iron armor, whose deaths were no different from those of ordinary soldiers!

"This is definitely the elite of the enemy territory! A Hundred-Household Domain can actually train an extraordinary professional battle group, it's simply outrageous!" Li Meng took a deep breath, but he also saw that apart from the Dao soldiers who were suspected to be extraordinary, the ordinary soldiers of the Soaring Flood Dragon Army suffered heavy losses under the attack of the Soaring Flood Dragon Army.

In particular, the militiamen who had not completed their training were wearing simple hemp clothing and carrying basic weapons, and suffered heavy casualties when they were ambushed by the Soaring Flood Dragon Army.

The entire front began to teeter on the brink of collapse the moment it was attacked.

"A small number of elite troops cannot affect the final outcome of the battle! I've won this round too!"

Li Meng breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment, he witnessed a nightmarish scene:

The Daoist priests, who had been hiding behind the front-line army and were originally only casting auxiliary spells, suddenly raised their Sharp Wind Flag.

Invisible winds transformed into sharp blades, raining down like arrows on the four front-line battle groups!

"The fish are caught in the net." Seeing the enemy's superhumans completely mixed with the ordinary soldiers of the battle group, Lin Xu knew that he had finally waited for the most crucial moment.

He calmly directed the Daoist group to launch a counterattack against the enemy. The Daoists then waved the Sharp Wind Flag, and nearly 1,500 wind blades tore apart the enemy formation in front of them in an instant!

Whether it's tough leather armor or sturdy iron armor, they are all treated equally in the wind blades. The Soaring Flood Dragon Army's battle skills, honed through countless trials, can only prolong their deaths.

Dense wind blades swept through, and the attacked battle groups were torn apart, their limbs flying everywhere, turning into a bloody slaughterhouse in the blink of an eye.

A few seconds later, the wind stopped, and the battlefield fell silent.

At the front lines, large swathes of mangled corpses covered the ground, and blood and limbs stained the grass red.

The nearby battle groups preparing to attack halted, trembling as they watched the carnage. Even the emotionless NPCs felt fear upon seeing this scene and lost the courage to continue their assault.

"Finally, this major threat has been resolved—" Lin Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

The intelligence advantage that sovereignty can bring, if used well on the battlefield, can be a nightmare for the enemy.

When he saw the castle carried on the back of the Mountain-Bearing Turtle, he understood that the outcome of this battle would not lie in the fighting between ordinary soldiers on the ground, but in how to stop these five rampaging behemoths!
