Qin Che had already built three lines of defense when he occupied the mountainous area.
There are many raider tribes in the south, and several of them are exceptionally powerful. Their army of tens of thousands roams the mountains like a beast awakening from its slumber.
Li Zhanhuo and Li Xin from the military headquarters are both here.
They arrived yesterday.
The fighting on the front lines was progressing very rapidly, reaching a fever pitch within a single day.
The sound of gunfire was frequent.
Clusters of flames rose from the woods, burning large areas.
These raiders deliberately set fire to the defenses, taking advantage of the wind, starting from the south and spreading the fire up to the defensive line.
"Get the troops to cut off the edge of the fire and cut down those trees! Quickly!"
Li Xin hovered in the air, transmitting orders via walkie-talkie. At the same time, he transformed into countless golden particles, flying horizontally and drawing an arc in the air, attempting to stop the spread of the fire, cut off the trees in the direction of its trajectory, and create a vacuum zone so that the flames could not burn anything.
Dozens of large trees were turned into particles and completely disappeared.
Li Zhanhuo was also rushing through the forest with his armored guards, and a large number of soldiers began to help cut down trees.
With Li Xin, an extraordinary individual, present, their movements were not slow.
They quickly cleared a vacuum area, and everyone was panting and sweating profusely.
Li Xin landed slowly, and golden light appeared in the surrounding void, condensing into his true form: "They came pretty quickly. Who would have thought they would set fire to it?"
"Minister Li, it's time to send the backpackers out on their mission."
Li Xin shook his head: "The main forces are all in the north. The two of us will keep an eye on this place. Send more people and let the armored warriors take over."
The war came very quickly.
Tens of thousands of raiders launched a surprise attack, almost catching them off guard.
The flames spread, and the temperature of the entire area continued to rise rapidly.
Large beads of sweat dripped from Li Zhanhuo's face as he unfolded a map and began issuing orders to deploy the armored army across various locations on the front lines. He also ordered the Spring Soldiers and the Southern Army to assist in troop deployment along the defensive lines.
They don't need to take the initiative.
Once the fire is burned out, the looters will show up.
With the fire raging like this, the enemy certainly wouldn't dare to approach.
"Has the situation been reported to Tiger and Leopard Peak?"
"We've already notified them. Lord Qin told us to hold out for now, and he's on his way."
Li Xin glanced at the distance; it wasn't far.
The fire lasted for more than ten hours before it finally went out.
Li Xin and his men reacted quickly, leaving behind countless charcoal and recyclable resources for the battlefield ahead.
The Raiders' Legion is online.
After scouting the enemy's movements, the vanguard immediately turned back and informed Li Xin of their findings.
Most of the military's elite are here.
Li Xin set up his command post in a concealed location near the second line of defense.
They were the ones who first engaged the raiders in battle.
"We can't rule out the possibility that they have psionicists. Tell the troops in front to be careful and try to prevent the raiders from attacking our rear. We must hold the high ground in the southeast corner and bring out all our artillery shells."
During this period, a lot of weapons were transported out of the desert.
Among them are various gun ports developed by the military industry, including those from the blue-coated soldiers.
They are very primitive and have never been used on the battlefield, even in the Old World. But as long as you know the principle and the industrial base is up to par, you can basically make them. As for things like electric charge and lasers, we don't have the capability to make them yet.
The soldiers carried rows of meticulously crafted mortars up the mountain, lined up in formation, and filed in.
Thick smoke is billowing from the burned jungle.
The first line of defense was preparing meals, with smoke rising from the chimneys. The soldiers had eaten their fill and replenished their spirits before the first battle.
They only had one night.
The raiders are very close ahead.
Everyone held their breath. Just moments ago, the fire raged fiercely, and the raiders seemed unaware that they had perfectly contained the flames.
As the footsteps and shouts of battle grew closer, everyone braced themselves with their weapons.
"Fire!"
Bang bang bang—
The rockets fired from the incendiary gun rained down like a storm, the thick barrage enveloping the entire forest, with explosions echoing continuously.
Flames soared, and thick black smoke billowed!
Just then, Li Xin darted forward, his body transforming into golden light, and vanished from everyone's sight in an instant.
The raider charging ahead had already appeared, and he moved faster than anyone else.
The next second, on the enemy's charging front, before the horizon of the mountains, countless raiders were disintegrated and dissolved.
Their formidable strength prevented the raiders' offensive from inflicting any significant damage in the first wave.
Their gun technology was outdated, and their range was not as far as that of rockets.
The armored warriors followed closely behind Li Xin and charged forward.
Chunbing and the Southern Army troops stood guard on the defensive line, not daring to move. Li Zhanhuo stood in the command post and surveyed the situation ahead with binoculars. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Xin slaughtering everyone.
These raiders are incredibly brave.
I wonder if there are any extraordinary beings guarding the battlefield?
This movement is somewhat like fishing bait...
Li Zhanhuo was about to continue observing.
Suddenly, a human raider appeared in the sky, standing in mid-air. As he moved his hands, the surrounding space was distorted within a certain range.
Trees and vegetation began to grow wildly!
The land and charred trees that had just been burned by the flames crumbled and turned into some kind of 'nutrients,' allowing the new plants to grow vigorously.
"extraordinary!"
Li Zhanhuo was shocked.
Li Xin was caught in mid-air by a vine, and a giant man-eating flower opened its mouth and bit him down.
