"Wang Hu, your demolition team is in charge of the raid. Remember, your target is the enemy's long-range firing positions. You must destroy them as soon as possible." Ning Yu's gaze fell on a burly man, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
"Understood!" Wang Hu replied in a deep voice, his eyes gleaming with excitement. He loved missions that went straight to the heart of the enemy.
“Li Bing, your reconnaissance team is in charge of…” Ning Yu paused, looking at a thin but sharp-eyed young man, “This mission is very dangerous, you must be extremely careful.”
Li Bing nodded without speaking, but gently patted the dagger at his waist, a silent promise.
In the dead of night, a cold wind howled, causing the tattered flags outside the stronghold to flutter wildly. Ning Yu stood on the watchtower, gazing into the dark night, like a lurking cheetah waiting for its prey.
"Here they are!" Li Bing's voice came through the earpiece, carrying a hint of barely perceptible tension.
Ning Yu narrowed his eyes. Sure enough, a row of moving black dots appeared on the distant horizon, moving very fast and approaching the stronghold.
"Pass down the order, prepare for battle!" Ning Yu's voice was calm and deep, yet it carried an undeniable authority.
The orders were relayed down through the ranks, and the entire stronghold instantly went on high alert. The soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, their eyes gleaming with unwavering resolve; they knew the moment of decisive battle had finally arrived.
The vanguard of the mysterious force drew ever closer, and by the dim moonlight, their ferocious faces and powerful aura could be vaguely discerned. A chilling atmosphere permeated the air, making it hard to breathe.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The heavy sound of war drums suddenly rang out in the stronghold. This was specially arranged by Ning Yu to boost morale and intimidate the enemy before the decisive battle.
"Kill!" A deafening battle cry erupted from the stronghold, shattering the silence of the night and marking the beginning of this life-or-death struggle.
Ning Yu stood at the highest point of the stronghold, gazing at the distant enemy, his eyes resolute and fearless...
Ning Yu, clad in battle armor, stood tall and imposing at the highest point of the stronghold, like a drawn sword, its cold light piercing the air. His deep eyes gazed into the distance, where a dark mass stretched out, like the calm before a storm, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
He wasn't born fearless; it was the responsibility on his shoulders that compelled him to be the pillar of support for everyone. He knew this battle concerned the very survival of all those who followed him, and he could not allow defeat!
"Brothers!" Ning Yu's voice wasn't loud, but it resounded throughout the stronghold like a booming bell. "We came from the ruins, and we watered this land with our blood and sweat. We must never let anyone take it away!"
"Behind us lies our homeland and our dearest loved ones! To protect them, we will never back down!" Ning Yu's voice was powerful and resonant, each word striking the hearts of the soldiers and igniting their fighting spirit.
"Fight! Fight! Fight!" The earth-shaking roar resounded through the sky. The warriors raised their weapons high, their eyes burning with the flames of war. They were ready to fight to the last moment to defend their homeland.
"Report! The enemy is five kilometers away!" Li Bing's voice came through the earpiece, his tone serious.
"Very good." Ning Yu's lips curled into a cold smile. "Pass on my orders: everyone proceed according to the pre-arranged plan and prepare to engage the enemy!"
"yes!"
Ning Yu took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and felt the surging energy within him. The decisive battle was approaching; it was time for him to break the seal and reveal his true strength!
"They're here!" Li Bing's voice rang out again, with a hint of urgency in it.

He raised his right hand, and a faint light flashed from the spatial ring on his index finger, revealing a jet-black longsword in his hand. Lightning crackled faintly across the blade, emanating a chilling aura.
A loud "boom!" shattered the silence of the night.
Ning Yu looked up and saw flames shooting into the sky on the distant horizon. Even from a great distance, he could feel the immense power of the shockwave from the explosion.
"They've finally arrived..." Ning Yu muttered to himself, a sharp killing intent flashing in his eyes. "Everyone, prepare for battle!"
