Cheng Ling spread his consciousness to the maximum extent, so that he could see everything within a thousand miles. After searching for two hours in the dense forest, traces of the demon clan were soon captured.
This is a concave area formed by two mountain ranges. It is surrounded by giant trees surrounded by people. More than 30,000 demon tribes gathered together, and densely packed camps were set up everywhere.
In the center, a high platform was built. Several transformed demon clans sat on the stage happily, watching dozens of demon clans wrestling with each other below, and kept bursting into laughter. It seemed that they did not care about the war in front of them at all.
There are only a few demon sentries scattered around the army, and the atmosphere is loose!
After a while, Yan Wushuang and others caught up.
Cheng Ling ordered softly: "You guys keep an eye here and remember not to attract their attention. The terrain here is not suitable for multiple attacks. I will go back and inform Senior Zhou to re-draw the battle plan."
Several people took the order and hid their figures.
Cheng Ling nodded slightly. The training of the Hidden Thunder Army during this period was quite effective. At least she was satisfied with their stealth skills and speed.
After explaining to Yan Wushuang and others, he returned to the original route. The demon camp's defenses were lax, and they didn't seem to expect that the humans would send out sergeants for reinforcements. At least they didn't expect that they and others would sneak into their camp.
Returning to where the army was stationed, Cheng Ling reported to Zhou Qingxi: "Commander, go a hundred miles away. Thirty thousand monsters are gathered in the concave layer of the mountains. Although the defense is lax, there are mountains to resist. It is difficult for us to attack from other directions. attack."
"Well, tell me what you think first."
"The concave layer is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there are many giant trees in the dense forest, so it is difficult to launch attacks. If you go over the mountains and attack downwards, you may be discovered by the monsters. The only gap that can be used is in front."
"My idea is to attract them out of the dense forest, let a force of a thousand people launch a feint attack, and pretend to be defeated at the slightest contact. The demon clan will not give up and will definitely use all their strength to pursue them. At this time, slowly retreat, Find a way to lead away from the dense forest area."
"As long as the monsters leave the dense forest and come to the open area, we have a lot of room for display. And when the monsters are chasing, we can also intercept them multiple times, continue to consume their troops, and finally kill them by surprise. .”
Zhou Qingxi nodded, looked at the other six people and said, "What do you think?"
The six people looked at each other and agreed. Zhao Liang said: "Commander, which troops are you going to arrange to lure the enemy?"
Zhou Qingxi smiled and said: "Nothing bothers you two masters. Since Cheng Dutong has such a proposal, it's up to you to go and lure the enemy!"
Cheng Ling happily accepted the order. The Hidden Thunder Army was indeed the best choice to lure the enemy. On the one hand, the Hidden Thunder Army cooperates tacitly and can implement its own intentions well; on the other hand, we still have the convenience of talismans. Such tactics must prevent the fairy spiritual power from being consumed in large quantities, otherwise the demon clan will not be lured out of the dense forest and a feint attack will be carried out. The army is about to be surrounded.
After receiving the military order, he and the fangs returned to the Hidden Thunder Army. They first asked the monks to prepare, and then asked the logistics team to distribute the magical talismans and attack talismans.
He is waiting! Wait for the night to fall.
Although for monks, day and night are similar, the main thing they rely on is not their eyes, but their spiritual consciousness. But the dark night can often make people relax their vigilance. Don’t underestimate this small gap, the results will be completely different.
middle of the month
Heaven, the human sergeants and the Hidden Thunder Army are all ready. Cheng Ling waved his hand, and a thousand monks followed the route he directed and sneaked away.
Two hours later, they came to the demon camp again, and were greeted by Yan Wushuang and the monks from the exploration team.
Cheng Ling asked: "How is the situation?"
"Everything is normal. The demon leaders went back to rest after watching the wrestling for a while, and they haven't appeared again until now."
Cheng Ling was overjoyed and said, "Okay, everyone, spread out to create the illusion of an attack by the army. Throw away the talismans in your hands and evacuate immediately!"
The monks nodded one after another and hid their aura to the limit, making it almost impossible to feel anyone approaching. After a while, several sentries on the periphery were eliminated.
Cheng Ling's attack caused talismans all over the sky to fall like snowflakes.
"Boom~!" The loud sound spread, and several other monks also threw out the talismans in their hands. Suddenly, the demon clan camp became noisy, and several demon clan leaders rushed out of the camp, shouting and gathering the demon clan under their command, and rushed towards the source of the sound.
Cheng Ling and others ran away at the first touch. After throwing out the talisman, they quickly retreated. More than a thousand people soon gathered together and ran wildly out of the dense forest.
The noise here immediately attracted the attention of the demon clan. The leader of the demon clan swept his consciousness and found where Cheng Ling and others were. He quickly gathered the chasing demon soldiers and pursued Cheng Ling.
At this time, the training results of the Hidden Thunder Army were reflected, and tens of thousands of monsters were far away behind them. The monks of the Hidden Thunder Army did not panic at all. They followed the usual training subjects and deliberately did not use their speed to the limit. Instead, they dispersed the formation and stretched for a long distance. It did not look like a thousand people at all, but at least ten thousand people. , seducing the demon clan to pursue continuously.
Sometimes when he saw that there were fewer monsters behind him, he would slow down and throw a few long-range attack spells back, making those monsters furious, but even with such a small distance, they still couldn't catch up.
After being attracted for half an hour, the surrounding trees gradually became sparse, and Cheng Ling knew that they had arrived at the first ambush point. He turned around, stopped, and ordered: "Martial cultivators step forward to withstand the attack of the demon clan, while Fa cultivators launch attacks from the rear and both sides!"
Zhang Haohui and Yu Zixian hurriedly directed their monks to arrange themselves in battle formations.
Seeing that they had stopped in front of them, the demon clan became even more frantic and rushed towards the military formation with all their might. They will use the first powerful wave of impact to completely overwhelm the human formation!
Ideal is full, the reality is very skinny. Before the monsters rushing ahead could come into close contact with the humans, figures suddenly appeared on both sides of the dense forest. Two thousand-man teams, led by Zhao Liang and Li Zijun, cut the chasing team of monsters into two parts.
The light cast by the spell lit up the night sky, and most of the demon clan rushing in front lost most of them. Cheng Ling led the Hidden Thunder Army and rushed into the demon camp. The entire team crossed two arcs and took away the lives of thousands of demons before returning to the distance and continuing to escape forward.
Zhao Liang and Li Zijun followed closely, leading the monks under their command to catch up.
The leader of the demon clan was furious. Only now did he know that there were more than 3,000 monks on his side. In just such an ambush, more than five thousand demon clans were lost. These human races are really cunning, and even such a small number of people dare to launch an attack. They must be completely annihilated today to let them see the strength of the demon race.
The battle line continued to lengthen. Cheng Ling, Zhao Liang and Li Zijun, and more than 3,000 ethnic monks formed a line.
Long term. The demon clan behind them also distributed more than 20,000 demon beasts in the narrow pursuit channel. Although they won the ambush battle, the situation was not optimistic.
Based on the area covered by Cheng Ling's consciousness, he had already discovered that Zhao Liang and Li Zijun's sergeants were retreating too slowly and were already being chased by the demon clan's vanguard. Facing the demon clan that doubled their size, they quickly fell at a disadvantage.
But it is difficult to stop at this time. Once they go back to rescue those sergeants, the entire team will be surrounded by demons, and all previous efforts will be in vain. Moreover, they were unable to increase their speed. They were fighting hand-to-hand in the rear, and the monks in the front were using their speed to the limit. There was no guarantee that these monsters could be completely lured away from the dense forest area.
Zhao Liang and Li Zijun also discovered this situation. They saw that the thousands of people under Cheng Ling's command had almost no damage, but their own side had lost hundreds of sergeants, and hundreds more were besieged by the monsters.
The two looked at each other, smiled bitterly, turned around and asked, "Cheng Dutong, what should we do now? Should we go back to rescue those sergeants?"
Cheng Ling sighed secretly, leaving the choice in his own hands. These two guys are really naughty. After pondering for a while, he spoke out: "Two commanders, please evacuate first and remind the commander to move the second ambush circle forward and be ready to support at any time."
The two of them looked at the hundreds of sergeants behind them who were surrounded by monsters. A trace of doubt flashed in their eyes. In the end, they followed Cheng Ling's idea and hurried forward.
Cheng Ling gritted his teeth and shouted to the more than a thousand monks left behind by the two men: "Hurry up and follow us, we will stop the pursuers behind you!"
This is a last resort. These sergeants are all under the command of Zhao Liang and Li Zijun. They are not familiar with the tactics of the Hidden Thunder Army at all. If they stay, they will become a burden. The sergeants were stunned, glanced at him gratefully, and then chased the two of them.
Cheng Ling cursed in his heart, what the hell is this! Don't be afraid of opponents who are like gods, but be afraid of teammates who are like pigs. He waved his flag and shouted loudly: "Hidden Thunder Army, follow me to attack the demon clan!"
At the same time, he sent a message to the fangs and said: "Don't make deep contact, harass the opponent's peripheral demon clan, and just rescue those hundreds of people!"
Fang nodded slightly, and the two of them took five hundred monks each and turned around and turned back.
The two teams curved through two arcs to form a semicircle, and kept moving forward, sometimes crossing an arc, and sometimes crossing a semicircle, which dazzled the demon clan.
In less than a moment, hundreds of monsters besieged on the outside were killed. In this way, the hundreds of monks who were surrounded managed to gain a little space and finally rushed out of the encirclement.
Cheng Ling did not stop, but just asked the monks to evacuate quickly. On his side, he used talismans and spells to attack from a distance and delayed the demon clan for a while. Only then did he order the Hidden Thunder Army monks to use their physical skills to the limit and evacuate out of the demon clan's encirclement again.
However, his spiritual consciousness swept over him, and this wave of rescue operations caused the Hidden Thunder Army under his command to lose dozens of monks. He secretly blamed himself in his heart. If he hadn't cared about those soldiers, these monks wouldn't have had to die.
He became more cautious and let the team of legal cultivators hold down the formation behind them, hanging tens of thousands of monsters from a short distance and slowly retreating out of the dense forest. As long as the demon clan is lured out of the dense forest, they can persist until the second ambush circle to launch a harassment battle.
The distance between the two teams gradually narrowed, and the demon clan became even more crazy. In their eyes, the speed of this wave of humans has gradually slowed down, and they can all be taken down with just one charge!
