Chapter 699: Chapter 696-ambush in front (1)
Translator: 549690339
āXia qianqi and I have military secrets to discuss. I would like to ask those who are not related to us to retreat for the time being.ā
āIām Lord Xiaās personal bodyguard. I wonāt leave your side,ā Zhao yunshi said coldly.
āAh!ā
Gongsun Wujiās jaw dropped in shock. Personal bodyguard?
The Generalās Daughter was a guard for a small thousand cricket cavalry?
He didnāt hear wrong, did he?
Upon seeing Gongsun Wujiās astonishment, Xia qingchen said, āāIt doesnāt matter if sheās present. She wonāt reveal the secret.ā
Gongsun Wuji was incomparably shocked after hearing Xia qingchenās silent agreement. After that, he had mixed feelings.
He had been in the Northwest Military Region for close to two years, yet he couldnāt compare to Xia qingchen, who had been here for more than a month.
Now, he had lost Yu guitianās important position and offended the generals. His future was bleak.
As for Xia qingchen?
The Generalās Daughter was willing to be a personal bodyguard, the commander praised her, and all the battalions in the Northwest Legion respected her. She had a bright future.
Comparing the two, he couldnāt help but feel inferior.
However, Gongsun Wujiās will did not crumble.
Although Xia qingchenās fortune was good, his strength was stronger than the other partyās. In the future, Xia qingchenās achievements would definitely be a tier higher than his.
This operation might be his stepping stone. If his performance was good enough, he might be able to exchange his merit points for some cultivation resources from the military Palace to enhance his cultivation.
If he could reach the major star position earlier, he could become Wan Xiaoqi.
my initial plan is as follows. Brother Xia, please take a look and see if there are any changes that need to be made. Gongsun Wuji opened up a map.
According to the map, there was a branch of the Dark Moon in the mountains.
He planned to climb up from the back of the branch nest.
Xia qingchen glanced at the map and felt a little surprised. āBehind the branch nest is a cliff, right? Itās going to be extremely difficult to climb up.ā
āThatās right!ā Gongsun Wuji nodded. The branch nest is located at the top of a cliff, easy to defend and hard to attack. A frontal attack will only alert the enemy, which will cause more casualties.ā
therefore, my plan is to lead a group of elite soldiers and strong generals to climb up from the rear and catch them off guard.
He didnāt plan to launch a large-scale attack, but only planned to bring a few people.
Xia qingchen didnāt rebut and expressed his agreement. āIāll try my best to cooperate with you.ā
Itās best to bring grudgy and Lian Xing along for this trip and let them use the flying Nirvana artifact to Scout the way first.
āThen weāll set off tomorrow.ā Gongsun Wuji said.
āGood! Iāll go back and prepare.ā Xia qingchen bade farewell on the spot.
After returning to the Northwest Military Region, Xia qingchen started to select his troops.
However, what made Zhao yunshi feel a little strange was that Xia qingchen had actually chosen two.
One of them was led by him, while the other was led by a man and a dog.
āDidnāt you say that you would cooperate with Gongsun Wuji? Why did you prepare another group of people?ā Zhao yunshi asked in surprise.
Xia qingchen pondered for a moment. donāt you feel that the matter of us exterminating the bandits has been spread far and wide? ā he asked. donāt you feel that itās causing too much commotion? ā
In the past month, many people had searched for Gongsun Wuji, which showed that the mission had already spread to the entire military.
There was no guarantee that the news would not be leaked!
Once it was leaked, the Dark Moonās branch nests would either have completely retreated or had not, but had set up a trap.
He had to make two preparations!
After understanding the reason, Zhao yunshi praised, āāI couldnāt tell that a newbie like you would have some experience in war.ā
How could she have known that the man standing in front of her had even participated in the war of the gods?
So what if they were just exterminating bandits?
At the same time.
In the White Lion Legion, Gongsun Wuji gathered the elite soldiers and generals he had selected and said, ā this mission concerns everyoneās honor. I hope you can do your best to destroy the Dark Moon.
āWe will definitely do our best, even in death!ā Everyone said one after another.
One of them was Gongsun Wujiās trusted aide, Xinyuan.
The whip marks on his body had mostly recovered, leaving only some shocking scars.
āMy Lord, how will the credit be given if we cooperate with the misty cloud battle group?ā Xinyuan asked.
What he asked was what everyone was concerned about.
Gongsun Wuji was no longer in an important position, and it would be too late if they did not care about their own interests and find a way out for the future.
Iāve discussed this with Xia Qian, ā Gongsun Wuji said. when we annihilate the members of the Dark Moon, weāll leave different colors on their bodies to distinguish who killed them.
This method was a more common method in a chaotic battle, and many soldiers no longer had any doubts.
āLord Gongsun is really kind to Lord Xia,ā Xin Yuan sighed.
The rest of the hundred horsemen sighed. Gongsun Wuji had sacrificed too much for this.
Xia qingchen wouldnāt be able to pay off this debt in his entire life!
Gongsun Wujiās eyes were filled with warning. in this cooperation, we must unite the yunlan battle group. Do not interfere and spoil the mission. Otherwise, you know the consequences!
āYes!ā
Both sides were ready.
The elite soldiers of both sides set off in the dark. Each side chose twenty people. Of course, grudgy and Lian Xing had already led twenty people and set off first.
They marched through the night and arrived at the bottom of the cliff a hundred thousand miles away at dawn.
The back of the cliff was almost straight and extremely steep.
Moreover, there was almost no place to climb nearby. They had to rely on ropes and flying claws to climb up, which was a great test of their personal strength.
youāre on the East slope, Iām on the North Slope. Letās go. Gongsun Wujiās eyes were filled with anticipation.
According to the information obtained by the commander, there were no experts in the branch nest. The strongest one was a middle star level six transformations abomination immortal.
Other than that, there were seven other abomination Immortals and twenty ghost Arhats.
With twice the number of troops, they would definitely win by surprise.
āAlright!ā Xia qingchen led Fang cuihong and the others to the eastern slope.
According to the plan, one side would head up the mountain from the North while the other would head up from the East. It would be a pincer attack.
At the foot of the eastern slope, Xia qingchen spoke. Iāll go first. You guys follow me.
He unsheathed his sword and used the flying sword technique to quickly jump up the cliff.
After twenty breaths, he had already crossed half of the cliff.
The celestial riding sword couldnāt continue. Xia qingchenās five fingers turned into claws, like sharp iron hooks, ruthlessly piercing into the cliff.
This was because his star power was vigorous enough to surpass the ninth transformation of the middle star level. Ordinary people could only dream of it.
After climbing for half an hour with his bare hands, he finally reached the edge of the cliff.
Out of vigilance, he did not show his head immediately. Instead, he took out a small mirror that he always carried with him and gently shone it upward.
The result surprised him.
At the edge of the cliff, there was a circle of ghost Arhats holding bows and arrows, ready to attack.
They were already prepared!
Xia qingchen instantly sensed that something was amiss. This time around, they had left the military camp in secret, and no one knew about it.
How did the Dark Moon know that they had come to the bottom of the cliff and were attacking from the back?
There was no doubt that there was a mole among their people.
Terrible!
Xia qingchen suddenly realized that since there was an ambush on the eastern slope, wouldnāt there be none on the northern slope as well?
Gongsun Wuji was in trouble!
He didnāt have time to think too much and immediately flipped over the cliff. šÆšš¦š¦š¤āÆš«ššøš£š®š.šøš°š¶
As soon as he appeared, an abomination immortal immediately noticed him and immediately ordered jokingly, āāHe really came! Fire!ā
Swoosh-
More than a dozen Nirvana artifact level arrows shot over like a storm.
Once the arrow touched something, it would explode on the spot and injure the enemy. It was extremely lethal.
Ordinary people would not be able to Dodge such dense arrows.
Even if they didnāt die from the explosion, they would be blown off the cliff and die.
