Chapter 452: Canyon
The shouts of Meng Yifan and his men resounded through the clouds, reaching deep into the Ten Thousand Mountains and into the ears of the Demon Race elites lying in ambush in the treacherous terrain.
"Bastards, since when do humans dare to block the gates of our Demon Race and shout provocations? This is a challenge to us. Let's not hide here like cowardly turtles; charge out and tear that group of humans apart."
"Indeed, the humans only number one thousand two hundred, while we have tens of millions of the Demon Race in the Ten Thousand Mountains, including tens of thousands of Sanpin Yi Race Yongshi. How can we allow the Human Race to be so arrogant? We, the Giant Stone Bear Race, request to join the battle."
"The Flame Wolf Race requests to join the battle."
"The Earth-Burrowing Sharp-Toothed Rat Race requests to join the battle."
"The Bingfeng Niaozuzu requests to join the battle."
………………
Most of the Demon Race have fiery tempers and are easily ignited. Now, hearing the provocative shouts of Meng Yifan's army, they could no longer hold back and one after another requested to join the battle to directly wipe out the Luolong County Army.
In fact, from the very beginning, many Demon Race tribes disagreed with setting an ambush; they felt that in the face of absolute strength, all schemes and tricks were useless.
When the Demon Race hunts humans, they have always been straightforward, pushing through everything in their path. Only those puny humans would use schemes like ambushes, hoping to defeat the strong with the weak.
The requests to join the battle from the Demon Race tribes soon reached the Old Dragon King. He is the supreme leader of the Demon Race tribal alliance and the great chieftain of the many Demon Race tribes in the Ten Thousand Mountains; he possesses supreme status within the Demon Race.
"Pass the order to all tribes: hold your positions and continue to lie in ambush on the only path to the Spirit Stone Mine of Jiguan Mountain. Ignore the human clamor; that is Meng Yifan's goading tactic. The humans just want us to go out and fight them; we must not fall for the humans' trap," the Old Dragon King ordered.
The Old Dragon King has a high IQ, even smarter than the vast majority of humans. He has also thoroughly studied human military strategy and understands that whatever the enemy wants you to do, you must absolutely not do it; you cannot be led by the nose by the enemy.
The weapons of the Luolong County Army are very sharp. Outside the Ten Thousand Mountains, the terrain is flat, which is favorable for the use of these weapons.
However, once inside the Ten Thousand Mountains, the roads are rugged and the jungles are dense. The power that those long-range attack weapons can exert will be greatly discounted. Therefore, the Old Dragon King still decided to follow the original plan to annihilate Meng Yifan's army within the Ten Thousand Mountains.
As for Meng Yifan's army challenging and clamoring outside now, it can just happen to stir up the anger of the Demon Race tribal warriors. When the attack is launched, the anger of the Demon Race army will erupt completely, and their combat effectiveness will double.
The Old Dragon King's order was passed down. Although many Demon Race tribes disagreed with doing so in their hearts, no tribe dared to defy the order, because over the long years, tribes that dared to defy the Old Dragon King had all been exterminated.
"The Demon Race are all cowardly as mice. Before, they only knew how to bully our human women and children. Now that our human warriors have come to your door, have the guts to come out and fight."
"Haha, the Demon Race of the Ten Thousand Mountains is nothing more than this, actually being scared to hide at home and not dare to come out by our one thousand two hundred people."
"When I was a refugee, I only knew how to run when I saw the Demon Race. Now I know, the Demon Race are all cowards. If you are weak, they bully you; if you stand tall, they are immediately scared and turn to run."
Zhang Shagen and the other officers and soldiers were in high spirits and continued to shout and curse loudly, but after half an hour, the Ten Thousand Mountains were silent, and not a single Demon Race unit came out.
Meng Yifan's campaign into the Ten Thousand Mountains attracted the attention of several major powers around the Great Wu Heavenly Dynasty, and many spies followed behind the Luolong County Army.
Meng Yifan was well aware of this but did not drive away those spies. He just wanted the many powers to know that the Luolong County Army is very powerful. Regardless of how those major powers fight and kill each other, as long as they don't come to provoke him, it will be fine.
At this moment, the spies of the Great Wu Heavenly Dynasty behind were excited. Regardless of whether the Luolong County Army were rebels or not, at least they were all Central Plains humans. In recent years, the humans of the Great Wu Heavenly Dynasty have lived too stifled; it seems like anyone can come and bully them. Now that Meng Yifan's army is counterattacking the Demon Race's lair, it is truly damn uplifting.
Hearing this news, the entire Central Plains Human Race wanted to applaud and cheer, and some hot-blooded youths wished they could carry a three-foot green blade and join the Luolong County Army, letting the foreign races on all sides know that humans also have heroes who dare to fight.
Another half hour passed, and the Demon Race in the Ten Thousand Mountains still did not come out. Zhang Shagen and the other officers and soldiers had been cursing for an hour and were also dry-mouthed, so they stopped one after another. This time, the cursing was satisfying; it felt great.
"To be able to endure humiliation and bear the burden, it seems there are wise men among the Demon Race," Meng Yifan muttered. The Demon Race had made up their minds to let them into the Ten Thousand Mountains to fight.
"Old Dragon King, you think you can offset the power of modern weapons like the AK47 Assault Rifle by using the terrain? Haha, this time I will let you know how a war is fought and how weapons and equipment are used."
"Enter the mountains!" Meng Yifan gave the order.
Kong Sanqiang led the Vampire Scouts to clear the way in front, followed by the Zombie Troop. They have thick skin and flesh, and wearing heavy armor, their defensive power is very strong. Even if the Demon Race has an ambush, they can hold on for a while. Following closely behind were the one thousand troops of the Salvation Army; they were vigilant, holding their weapons, ready to fire at any time.
"Bastards, they finally came in. In a moment, I'll let you know the power of the Demon Race warriors." The Demon Race scouts hurriedly passed the news of the humans entering the mountains back, letting the Demon Race lying in ambush behind prepare for battle.
Because they had received Meng Yifan's guidance in advance, this time Kong Sanqiang's Vampire Scouts dispersed and focused on observing treacherous places such as canyons, jungles, and rivers to see if there were any Demon Race troops in ambush there.
After entering the Ten Thousand Mountains and walking forward for about ten kilometers, Kong Sanqiang discovered the Demon Race army in ambush at the top of the mountain in a canyon terrain similar to a "line of sky." They were hiding in a bunker fifty meters underground, and the top was covered with a layer of turf. If one did not observe carefully, one really could not discover them.
Unfortunately, due to the racial characteristics of vampires, they are naturally sensitive to blood, especially the blood of high-grade Demon Beasts. Kong Sanqiang is a Fourth-Grade Vampire, and his nose is comparable to a blood radar; as long as it is within five hundred meters of him, he can smell the scent of Demon Race blood.
The reconnaissance ability of a Level 3 Vampire is slightly weaker; they can smell the scent of Demon Beast blood within two hundred meters.
The reconnaissance ability of an Second Grade Xuegui is even weaker; they can only smell the scent of Demon Beast blood within one hundred meters.
Therefore, Kong Sanqiang divided the Vampire Scout troop into ten squads. Each squad had a Level 3 Vampire squad leader who could discover the Demon Race's hiding place within two hundred meters. In this way, flying a circle in front basically allowed them to discover the ambush positions of the Demon Race.
Kong Sanqiang discovered the Demon Race hiding on top of the canyon. He remained calm, acting as if he had not discovered the Demon Race, and returned after circling around.
