Chapter 206: Preparation

Night gradually faded, a pale fish-belly white appearing on the horizon.

Bai Hu, Hong Mao, Tie Shi Wen, Jiao Mo, and the soldiers of the Bai Hu War Cavalry had rested overnight and recovered some strength, ready to depart.

They had recovered some strength, fully equipped and ready to set out.

Preparing to embark on the journey back to Soulbreaking Pass.

Although fatigue from last night still lingered on their faces,

the light in their eyes revealed excitement.

Upon Bai Hu's command, everyone mounted their horses and galloped swiftly toward Soulbreaking Pass.

Hooves struck the ground, making a "da-da" sound.

As if playing a victorious triumphal song.

After a period of rapid riding, they finally saw the outline of Soulbreaking Pass.

That majestic pass, bathed in the morning sun,

appeared even more solemn and majestic.

Inside the pass, the banners of the Cangzhou Army fluttered in the wind, as if beckoning to them.

Bai Hu and the others spurred their horses into the pass, immediately causing a commotion.

The soldiers of the Cangzhou Army surged forward one after another.

Watching this newly returned troop.

Sunlight fell upon the walls of Soulbreaking Pass.

Golden light shone on every brick and stone.

As if draping this weather-worn pass with a veil of victory.

Bai Hu, Hong Mao, Tie Shi Wen, Jiao Mo, and the soldiers of the Bai Hu War Cavalry.

After days of travel and battle,

they finally returned at this moment to the place where they had fought together.

When they rode through the city gate and stepped onto the city wall,

an indescribable excitement and pride welled up in each of their hearts.

They gazed at the pass beneath their feet, which they had reclaimed with their own hands.

At this moment, Li Jing, who was patrolling the city wall, also rushed over upon hearing the news.

He wore a suit of armor, solemn and dignified, his brows revealing an unyielding heroic spirit.

When Li Jing saw the returning figures of Bai Hu and the others, his face showed a relieved smile.

"Welcome back, warriors of Cangzhou!"

He quickly stepped forward, looking at the safely returned Bai Hu and the others, and said relievedly.

Bai Hu and the others returned a military salute, showing respect and gratitude to Li Jing.

"Chief Commander, we have not failed the mission!"

"The Bai Hu War Cavalry successfully completed the mission, rescued the two generals Tie Shi Wen and Jiao Mo, and joined forces with Hong Mao and his brothers."

Bai Hu wore white armor, his face resolute.

"General Li, thanks to your support and General Bai Hu's bravery."

"Only we seven could successfully complete this mission."

Hong Mao also stepped forward, saluting Li Jing.

"Hong Mao brothers, you are being too modest."

"This victory is the result of everyone's joint efforts; each person's contribution is indispensable."

"Besides, we have already captured Soulbreaking Pass, but the upcoming battles will be even more difficult."

"There will still be many opportunities for us to work together in the future."

Li Jing smiled, waved his hand, and said lightly.

Thus, everyone gathered around and began to discuss the next action plan.

"Everyone, although we have successfully seized Soulbreaking Pass, this is only the beginning."

"Now the Great Qi Zhou Army has lost the mountain barrier west of Qi Zhou."

"Next, it will likely be a hard clash decisive battle."

Bai Hu spoke first, his voice firm and powerful.

"What Bai Hu said is correct."

"Although the Qi Zhou Army suffered heavy losses, they have temporarily retreated."

"But their strength should not be underestimated."

"Moreover, in the northern lands of Great Yong, there is not only the Prince of Qi Zhou as a vassal king!"

Li Jing nodded and took over the conversation.

His words were profound.

"What Chief Commander Li said is correct."

"The Cultivator we encountered in the Great Qi Army's main camp this time."

"He is not a person of Qi Wang!"

Hong Mao stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, then said.

"If it weren't for our seven having a special combined strike secret technique,"

"we would probably estimate that this time we would have more misfortune than fortune."

Hong Mao then looked toward the direction of Tie Shi Wen and said.

The Cultivation that the Rainbow Cat youth hero encountered, we probably already know his identity.

It seems the Tiger King of Great Yong can't wait any longer.

Everyone understands the principle of interdependence.

Therefore, what we will face next is.

There might be more than just one Qi Wang.

Li Jing looked toward the Qi army camp in the distance from the city wall of Soul-Severing Pass.

Therefore, I think we can adopt a strategy of splitting our forces into two routes.

One route will continue to be led by me, the commander, responsible for frontally resisting the enemy.

The other route will be led by General Bai Hu, General Tie Shi Wen, and General Jiao Mo.

Using their knowledge of the enemy, we will carry out a flank attack.

Tie Shi Wen and Jiao Mo exchanged a glance, then nodded.

The subordinate obeys!

I and Jiao Mo were once captured by the enemy, so we have some understanding of their tactics and deployment.

As long as we can make use of this information, we can certainly devise some targeted tactics and strategies!

Tie Shi Wen beside him, upon hearing that he also had a share, hurriedly spoke up.

Yes, for example, the enemy's weakness lies in their logistics supply line.

If we can cut off their supply line, the enemy will fall into a passive position.

Furthermore, we can also use means such as night raids and fire attacks to disrupt the enemy's deployment.

Hearing that we two still have the chance to lead troops in battle.

After Tie Shi Wen finished speaking, Jiao Mo also hurriedly added.

He showed particular enthusiasm.

After hearing this, Bai Hu's eyes flashed with a hint of approval.

Commander, what do you think?

He turned his head to look at Li Jing.

This plan sounds quite feasible.

But we must pay attention to one thing: the reaction of the Qi Zhou Army.

We must constantly monitor the movements of Qi Zhou and adjust our plan according to their changes.

Especially note that Tiger King next to Qi Zhou!

Li Jing pondered for a moment, then spoke slowly.

After a heated discussion and exchange.

Everyone finally devised a meticulous plan.

They decided to adopt a strategy of splitting forces into two routes to cope with the upcoming battle.

This plan takes into account the necessity of a frontal assault.

It also balances the importance of flank attacks and rear harassment.

Aiming to achieve mutual coordination between the two forces.

Together to pincer-strike the Qi Zhou great army!

Seeking to act when the Tiger King's great army arrives.

In one fell swoop, cripple the Qi Zhou army!

Li Jing will lead the majority of the Cangzhou army soldiers.

Cooperating with War Gods such as Sun Wukong and Wu Wenhua, responsible for the frontal assault.

They will launch an offensive against the Qi Zhou great army with the force of thunder.

As much as possible, tie down all of the Qi Wang's forces.

Although the frontal assault is difficult, it is the key to seizing victory.

And Tie Shi Wen and Jiao Mo, meanwhile, lead the newly joined White Tiger War Cavalry.

Using the cover of terrain and night, they silently approach the enemy and deliver a deadly blow.

Although flank attacks and rear harassment carry greater risk.

but they can effectively disrupt the enemy's deployment.

Weaken the enemy's combat power.

Meanwhile, Rainbow Cat will lead the remaining Cangzhou army soldiers.

as well as martial artists skilled in stealth and reconnaissance.

responsible for flank attacks and rear harassment.

To ensure the plan's successful execution, Li Jing also coordinated with Bai Hu and Hong Mao.

Regarding personnel allocation, tactical deployment, and so on.

They conducted detailed discussions and arrangements.

Li Jing assigned tasks based on each person's strengths and combat experience.

He reasonably assigned tasks and roles.

Ensuring that each person could exert their maximum potential.

Moreover, the majority of intelligence personnel of the Net in Qi Zhou were mobilized.

To strengthen tactical coordination and signal communication, etc.

Ensuring the two forces can closely coordinate and fight jointly.
