Inside the main tent.
The general's rank on the shoulders of the man sitting at the head of the table gleamed.
"General Lu, our scouts have reported that the alien army has begun to assemble."
To Lu Xingchuan's right, a man with a serious expression reported, "There are approximately three million alien races and magical beasts, mostly of the third rank or higher, with the fourth and fifth ranks being the most numerous. The enemy vanguard, which is closest to us, will be at our gates in about a day, while the main force will take another two to three days."
After he finished speaking, the main tent fell silent.
"This is going to be a tough battle."
“Three million enemy troops, but we only have less than two million soldiers.” One of the generals said with a grim face, “Although the Abyss is of utmost importance, the Dragon Kingdom is surrounded by enemies on all sides, and the number of troops we can mobilize is already at its limit.”
Lu Xingchuan remained calm, completely undisturbed by this information: "We've experienced wars where we're outnumbered before. Now we have two million elite troops! What is there to fear?!"
"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.
Seeing that they were no longer frowning, Lu Xingchuan turned his gaze to the person who had brought the message: "Investigate again, and be sure to keep track of the enemy's movements in a timely manner. Also, remember not to underestimate the enemy; the wisdom of high-level alien races is never inferior to ours."
"Yes!" The man immediately accepted the order, took his leave, and left the tent.
"Pass down the order: all soldiers must remain on high alert and assemble immediately upon hearing the whistle," Lu Xingchuan calmly commanded. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he added, "By the way, have the people from the four universities arrived yet?"
"We've arrived and everything is settled."
Lu Xingchuan nodded: "That's good. Let them select a few of the best teams to join the guerrilla group."
“General, this…” Zhong Shu hesitated.
“Although they are students, they are not as weak as you think,” Lu Xingchuan chuckled. “Especially the Zhan Tian Academy. Pay close attention to the support sent by the Zhan Tian Academy and place them in suitable positions.”
"Yes!" Zhong Shu replied and turned to make the arrangements.
——
That evening, Jiang Wuyuan and his group had just eaten a few bites of food to fill their stomachs when news came that the distribution was complete.
The Dawn Hunting Group and the Shadow Hunting Group were assigned to the guerrilla group.
“There aren’t many people in the guerrilla group. To facilitate relocation, they must all be the elite of the elite,” Ruan Kongyin explained to Jiang Wuyuan. “Being a guerrilla is tiring and dangerous, so you need to be careful.”
"Don't worry." Jiang Wuyuan nodded.
——
The next day, at dusk.
唳——
When the military whistle blew, Jiang Wuyuan was sitting cross-legged on a rock, holding a piece of silk in one hand and slowly wiping the Devouring Star in the other.
Upon hearing the resounding bugle call that echoed throughout the entire camp, Jiang Wuyuan immediately looked up and put the Devouring Star back into its sword sheath.
Since arriving here, he has been wearing his newly bought Tier 4 combat suit, and he has never taken it off even when he sleeps.
With higher ranks, the design of combat uniforms can be more exquisite.
She wore a black outfit, the hem of which was short, barely reaching her knees.
The dark black hair crown on his head tied all his hair into a ponytail on top of his head.
With a black sword case on his back, he was fully prepared and looked like a young swordsman who had traveled from ancient times.
"Assemble!" Ruan Kongyin immediately led his team towards the guerrilla group's assembly point.
The military camp was bustling with activity. Countless soldiers in uniform, carrying weapons, filed out from all directions toward their assembly point.
Jiang Wuyuan, being in the midst of it all, felt utterly shocked.
The deafening sound of footsteps, mixed with loud military whistles, constantly assaulted Jiang Wuyuan's eardrums.
The silent smoke of battle filled the air, making one's blood boil.
The guerrilla leader was a handsome man with a gentle demeanor, but Jiang Wuyuan noticed that his subordinates looked at him with great respect.
"The four major academies?" The leader glanced in the direction where Jiang Wuyuan and the others were. "I have only one requirement for you, and that is to obey my orders completely, even if I send you to your deaths."
As he spoke, his imposing aura suddenly erupted, and even his smiling face appeared dangerous: "If anyone disobeys orders, I have the right to kill them on the spot."
Jiang Wuyuan remained calm and responded with a "yes" along with the others.
"Very good." The commander's expression remained unchanged as he continued, "What follows is merely a warm-up. The vanguard of the beast tide is about to arrive, and the strongest among them is only at the sixth rank. However, I demand that no one underestimate them!"
Our current task is to follow the troops and keep the enemy as far away from the city walls as possible.
No one may leave the team without authorization.
Furthermore, when I ask everyone to assemble, everyone must gather around me within five seconds.
Did you all hear me?!
"I heard you!"
"Very good. Then let's wish each other a resounding victory!" The commander nodded with a smile. "All hands on deck, let's go!"
The soldiers in military uniforms were very skilled, each using their own flying techniques to keep up with the regimental commander.
Students from the four universities are also learning diligently and dare not fall behind.
Jiang Wuyuan rode on a fourth-tier flying sword, following behind Ruan Kongyin and the others.
High in the air, you can see people flying over the city walls one after another.
Many of the most advanced technological weapons were transported out of the city.
Everyone was looking north.
Over there, yellow sand was swirling and dark clouds were obscuring the sun.
The dark forces surged forth like a thick black fog.
Qi Anlan exchanged glances with several majors and lieutenant colonels who were also leading their teams nearby, and then led their teams at high speed.
