Chapter 359: Rapidly Growing Army, Invincible Among Beast Kings

Northern section of Longshan, about thirty kilometers deep to the west.

A fierce battle is unfolding in the ice and snow jungle filled with cold mist.

The two sides of the battle are humans and cold beasts.

On the human side, it is a human army of about four thousand people, all wearing light golden armor; on the cold beast side, they are all golden-armored Lei Kui of varying sizes, from five or six meters to over thirty meters, clearly corresponding to low, intermediate, and high levels, with a total number of over ten thousand.

From the perspective of quantity, the cold beast side clearly has the advantage.

But if someone looks down from above, they will find that the cold beast side is being killed and retreating steadily, and even in the peripheral areas of the battle, a small number of intermediate and low-level Lei Kui are fleeing the battlefield, clearly frightened by the killing.

The human army launched a charge from east to west, and the army as a whole is facing west, clearly divided into three plates. Two thousand-man armies occupy the left and right wings, constantly compressing the activity space of the Lei Kui; the remaining two thousand people continue to break through from the middle, and the army as a whole is shaped like a triangular sharp knife, deeply inserted into the hinterland of the Lei Kui group.

"Left and right wings close in, the central army continues to charge forward with me!"

Director Yu Wen Tao's roar suddenly sounded at the very front of the battlefield.

Two five-man teams rushed out of the left and right wing armies, one holding the flag and four covering, rushing straight into the interior of the beast group for more than two hundred meters. Then the flag-bearer jumped high, slammed the ten-meter-high military flag into the ground, and cooperated with the other four to block the surrounding cold beasts and protect the military flag.

The central army was the same, two five-man teams followed suit, inserting the military flag into the more core area of the beast group, blocking the outer cold beasts to death, and letting the military flag stand tall in the cold wind.

"The flag order has been issued, brothers of the Tulong Army, follow me and kill!"

"Brothers of the Hubao Army, follow this Commander to charge, leave the scattered cold beasts alone!"

"Brothers of the Xuanwu and Shenwu armies, look at the position of the military flag and charge in."

Does Does Da Xia has been an army for six years, and the configuration and tactics of the army have basically matured.

Every army will select five elites from the scout camp to serve as the army's flag-bearers, including one main envoy and four deputy envoys. These five people do not care about killing the enemy on the battlefield, only about protecting the flag, and must move the position of the military flag at any time according to the commander's orders to point out the direction of attack for the soldiers.

It is said that the four armies of Tulong, Hubao, Xuanwu, and Shenwu should be commanded by their respective commanders Yuan Cheng, Luo Yuan, Hong Guang, and Hong Tian, but the highest commander of these four armies in this battle is clearly Director Yu Wen Tao.

So as soon as Director Yu Wen Tao's order came out, the twenty flag-bearers of the four armies moved immediately, cooperated to issue the flag order, and then the four commanders, Yuan Cheng and others, personally led the army to charge toward the position of the military flag.

For individuals, a large battle on the scale of a hundred people is actually a bit chaotic. When the battle is fierce, if you don't pay attention to the battlefield situation, not only is there a high probability of accidentally injuring your own side, but it is also easy to fall into a situation of fighting on your own and unable to exert the combat power that the army should have.

Rising to the scale of a thousand people, it goes without saying.

The establishment of flag-bearers can be said to perfectly solve this problem.

Any army in Does Does Da Xia, once the number is established, the Craftsman Department will immediately make the army's flag according to the commander's requirements.

The flag pole of each military flag uses ten-thousand-forged fine iron, and the flag surface uses the top-level silk fabric currently available in Does Does Da Xia. Even the patterns and characters on the flag surface are sewn stitch by stitch with extremely precious silver thread.

Making military flags with such high specifications and great effort, to put it vaguely, is to increase the sacredness of the military flag and thus enhance the cohesion of the soldiers; to put it realistically, it is to ensure that every soldier on the battlefield can see clearly, thereby enhancing the execution on the battlefield.

Just like at this moment, the four eye-catching military flags of Tulong, Hubao, Xuanwu, and Shenwu on the battlefield are constantly reminding the soldiers of the four armies of the direction in which their army is currently attacking. Coupled with the stern command of the four commanders, all soldiers are exerting force in one place, so the lethality and destructive power caused are exceptionally terrifying.

Among the same level of cold beast species, Lei Kui's strength is considered top-notch. The impact formed by such a large Lei Kui group charging together is even more unimaginable than ordinary people.

Moreover, compared to beast tides of the same scale, they have extremely strong organizational skills.

"Moo…………"

On the left side of the battlefield, more than a dozen high-level Lei Kui roared at the same time. Thousands of intermediate and low-level Lei Kui, who were originally entangled with the soldiers around them, turned around at the same time and gathered toward their location.

After gathering, it was not over yet. The dozen or so high-level Lei Kui with a body length of more than thirty meters took the lead in launching a fierce charge against the Tulong Army, which was constantly charging forward on the left wing. Thousands of Lei Kui who had just gathered beside them also turned their bodies at the same time and launched a unified charge against the left wing.

"This is a desperate attempt, wanting to counterattack? Dream on!"

Yuan Cheng, Commander of the Dragon-Slaying Army, saw the intentions of the Lei Kui pack at a glance. Wielding his silver double-edged great axe, he first slashed horizontally, sending a high-level Lei Kui that was blocking his path flying. He then leaped directly in front of the Lei Kui's charge and roared in a deep voice: "Everyone, raise your shields in place! All Frost-Resistance level soldiers, get to the front! Block those dozen or so high-level Lei Kui and don't let them escape!"

After he finished speaking, he directly inserted the giant axe beside his feet, took out the golden round shield he had been carrying on his back, held his breath, and sank his legs down fiercely.

The thousand Tulong Army soldiers on the left wing were the same as him. They all temporarily put down their weapons, took out the golden round shields on their backs in unison, held their breath, and stared at the thousands of Lei Kui rushing toward them, without any fear on their faces.

Bang!

Yuan Cheng stood at the very front, so he was naturally hit by the Lei Kui first, and the one that hit him was a high-level Lei Kui.

No, rather than saying hit, it's better to say he took the initiative to top it.

No matter how burly Yuan Cheng is, he is only two meters tall. Compared with the Lei Kui with a body length of thirty meters in combat form, under normal circumstances, let alone using a golden round shield to block, it would be no problem for the Lei Kui to jump over him directly.

However, the actual situation was that when the Lei Kui swooped over, Yuan Cheng seized the opportunity to take the initiative to push forward during the gap when the Lei Kui's left forelimb landed.

Boom crack...

The Lei Kui with a body length of more than thirty meters was pushed by him like this, and its left forelimb actually made a cracking sound, and its body also retreated more than ten meters, and the momentum of the charge stopped abruptly.

Bang bang bang…………

Yuan Cheng here was just the beginning. The movements of the Tulong Army soldiers on the left wing were almost the same as his. They also seized the opportunity to push forward, actually blocking all the Lei Kui that rushed over in the first wave.

Of course, not everyone is like Yuan Cheng, who can push the Lei Kui back, but at the very least, the soldiers can also stalemate with the Lei Kui and not let them break through the left wing line and escape.

Lei Kui has a huge body, and fighting alone is an advantage, but charging at the same time is not good, because the body is huge, so they can only come in order, so when the front Lei Kui are intercepted by the soldiers, and the Lei Kui behind are still charging forward, the collision between the two is inevitable.

Bang bang…………

The collision of thousands of Lei Kui made the entire battlefield tremble, and the scene became chaotic.

Yuan Cheng just put away the shield and picked up the giant axe again. The high-level Lei Kui that was forced back by him was already angry and rushed toward him again. His brows tightened slightly, realizing that it was too late to take action now, so he immediately raised the giant axe to block in front of him, trying to resist this blow hard.

Bang!

However, when that Lei Kui was still over ten meters away from him, a silver broadsword suddenly swept down horizontally from above its head. Caught off guard, the Lei Kui's head slammed violently downward, colliding fiercely with the ground.

"Many thanks to Director Yu Wen Secretary!"

Seeing that the person who came was Director Yu Wen Tao, Yuan Cheng immediately bowed to thank him.

Director Yu Wen Tao just nodded lightly to him, then jumped directly to the position of the Lei Kui's head, while raising the broadsword to stab fiercely downward at the Lei Kui's eyeball, not forgetting to continue to order the army.

"Central army turn left, right army continue to charge forward!"

The central army is the Xuanwu and Shenwu armies, and the right army is Luo Yuan's Hubao Army. As soon as Director Yu Wen Tao's order came, the fifteen flag-bearers of the three armies moved upon hearing the news, and the military flag changed its orientation again.

Following this was the more fierce charge of the army.

The central army was originally charging toward the west side. At this moment, turning left is toward the south side where the Tulong Army is located; and the right army itself was charging from north to south, so there was no change in orientation at this moment, but the military flag moved another two hundred meters deeper to the south, and the group of soldiers charged forward even more vigorously.

The last counterattack of the Lei Kui group was facing the south side. It was originally blocked by the Tulong Army. As soon as Director Yu Wen Tao's instruction came, the entire Lei Kui group, except for a small number that could escape, was basically surrounded on three sides, and the only way out was the west side.

But for some reason, they just didn't run to the west side.

…………

This battle clearly lasted for a long time. There were at least a thousand Lei Kui lying on the ground on the outer periphery of the east side of the battlefield. Almost every body was inserted with hundreds of silver iron arrows. One kilometer east, there were thousands of scattered strong bows and arrow quivers on the ground. One look and you knew they were left by the soldiers who had finished shooting arrows earlier.

"Five-digit scale, and it's a single-species beast tide. I originally thought that all six armies would have to be dispatched to deal with it. I didn't expect that the Yunjiao and Long Wu armies wouldn't be needed. The Tulong Army was established in the third year of Does Does Da Xia, and its combat power is strong, which is understandable. The Hubao, Xuanwu, and Shenwu armies were established in the fourth and fifth years of Does Does Da Xia, and it has been less than three years until now. The combat power is so terrifying!"

On the outermost periphery of the east side of the battlefield, Li Yuankun, who had just rushed from the Longshan outpost, picked up a strong bow on the ground, looked up at the battlefield, and looked at the Tulong four armies that forced the Lei Kui group into a desperate situation, his face full of shock.

"The predecessors plant trees, the descendants enjoy the shade. The tactics and military system developed by the Yunjiao and Long Wu armies earlier, the four armies only need to copy and practice, and the growth rate is naturally very fast. However, I really didn't expect to be able to deal with such a large-scale Lei Kui group!"

It was not just Li Yuankun who came, but also Watching Yue Feng.

Watching Yue Feng had just rushed back to the Longshan outpost and arranged the camp affairs, and immediately let Li Yuankun take himself to the silver mine to find Xia Hong.

Li Yuankun is the deputy captain of the Shanhe team and has always been Watching Yue Feng's partner. Watching Yue Feng was transferred to Longshan Integrity Envoy, and he was also appointed as the Longshan Camp Needs Division Military Equipment.

This time, Watching Yue Feng could have sent Li Yuankun back to Xia City to handle the Shanhe Army, but he attached great importance to the Shanhe Army and decided to do it himself, so he let Li Yuankun stay in Longshan.

There are five silver mines in Longshan. Watching Yue Feng just came from Xia City and didn't know where Xia Hong was, so he could only let Li Yuankun lead the way.

The two came over and happened to witness this battle of the four armies. The two who rarely contacted the military were naturally shocked by this scene.

Recalling the situation Li Yuankun said on the way here, Watching Yue Feng asked softly: "You just said that this is the fourth silver mine that the Lord led the army to deal with, right?"

Li Yuankun nodded and said: "Not only the fourth, but also the largest of the five silver mines discovered in Longshan so far. Secretary Mu came to explore it personally the year before last. A conservative estimate is a large medium-sized vein, and it might even be a large one."

Hearing this, Watching Yue Feng's expression was a bit excited.

Below 100,000 tons of reserves is micro; 100,000 to 500,000 tons is small; 500,000 to 3 million tons is medium; large, that is 3 million to 10 million tons.

If it is really a large silver mine, then Does Does Da Xia will not lack silver for a long time in the future. Moreover, this silver mine is in Longshan territory. In the future, the profit value of the Longshan outpost is estimated to be ranked first every year, which makes this Longshan Integrity Envoy how can he not be excited.

"Because it is the largest silver mine, the cold beast group occupying it is also the strongest, actually having four beast king-level Lei Kui, which is shocking. If it weren't for the Lord, it would be useless to rely on the army."

Hearing Li Yuankun's sigh, Watching Yue Feng's expression vibrated, nodded heavily, then looked up to the west, his eyes full of fanaticism.

To the west, there is a snow peak three or four hundred meters high.

Above the snow peak, one red and four golden lights are clashing fiercely.

It was too far away, and Watching Yue Feng couldn't see it very clearly. Just judging from the trajectory of the five strong lights, it was clearly the four golden lights on the periphery fighting around the red light in the middle.

"I heard that the Lord fought one against three on the night he left seclusion on September 9th, dealing with three beast kings alone, and beheaded two and drove one away. I already felt it was unbelievable when I heard it at the time. Looking at the situation now, it is estimated that that was not the Lord's full strength. My lord, how strong do you think the Lord's strength is now?"

Watching Yue Feng's expression was fanatical, and Li Yuankun was not to be outdone.

Looking at that red light not only becoming more and more intense, but also frequently beating back the four golden lights and breaking through the encirclement, and even two of the golden lights clearly began to wither, his face was full of worship, and the fanaticism in his pupils was no less than Watching Yue Feng's.

This is clearly a performance of Xia Hong having the upper hand. Watching Yue Feng can naturally see it. He took a breath and replied in a low voice: "Not clear, but can be roughly deduced. The Woodcutting Realm corresponds to low-level cold beasts; the Earth-Digging Realm corresponds to intermediate cold beasts; the Frigid-Resistant Realm corresponds to high-level cold beasts. In this way, beast king-level cold beasts should correspond to our human Xianyang Realm.

Under the corresponding realm, humans have to form groups and teams to have the possibility of dealing with cold beasts. This is almost a convention. In this way, it can be deduced that the normally broken-through Xianyang Realm's strength is definitely not as good as beast king-level cold beasts.

It is rare for someone like the Lord to be able to crush them as soon as he breaks through to the Xianyang Realm, and he can also deal with many with few. It is absolutely rare, and it is possible that there is none at all.

Based on this deduction, even if they are in the Xianyang Realm, the Lord's strength is much, much stronger than others, and it is possible that it is several times or even dozens of times..." ===== CHAPTER 360 =====
