On the battlefield, light and shadow intertwined, fire flew, explosions came one after another, accompanied by fire clouds rising into the sky.
Hundreds of mechas crossed the trenches, and the high-speed rotating Vulcan cannon fired out steel storms. Rockets were mixed in the barrage, like hail in the rain, hitting the opposite side crazily.
On the other side, dozens of tall figures were walking. They walked resolutely, like the mythical Titans, holding a steel shield in their hands, advancing towards the enemy's position step by step.
Bullets and rockets hit the steel shield, causing sparks to fly, and from time to time, balls of scorching flames erupted.
"The Guards, the first elite battle group, charge!"
With a loud war cry, the Iron Giant accelerated in vain. They strode like lightning, their heavy footsteps shaking the earth. In the blink of an eye, he crossed several trenches and crashed into a group of mechas.
The heavy shield in his hand was swung high and slammed onto the mecha!
The powerful impact immediately caused the mecha to fall apart. Before the pilot of the mecha inside could react, he was crushed into pieces by the rapidly deforming cockpit. The oil in the hydraulic pipes splashed everywhere, and the spilled fuel was quickly ignited, and the entire mecha instantly burned into a fireball.
A black shadow passed overhead, and then a huge steel shield crashed down from the sky.
There was a muffled "boom" sound, parts flew everywhere, and the mecha below was smashed to pieces.
In less than five minutes, these steel giants swept across half of the battlefield, beating the main mechas of the Allied Ninth Armored Division to pieces.
Suddenly, the steel giant's body surface lit up with strange red lights.
It was the mark of the abyss that was burning and flowing with lava and molten iron.
Sensing the presence of the enemy, all the steel giants looked up at the sky and roared angrily.
"For the Thunder Group!"
"For Tieno!"
At the same time, in the command vehicle behind the battlefield, Chen Xing, who discovered Qin Wu's whereabouts, picked up the walkie-talkie.
"Commander of the right army, Lelionka!"
"exist!"
"Commander of the left army, Viscount Ramon!"
"exist!"
"The target has appeared, execute according to the battle plan!"
"yes!"
The two commanders responded in unison.
Then, Chen Xing switched the walkie-talkie to the Guards command channel.
"Huozui, retreat immediately!" Afraid that the other party would not understand, he strengthened his tone and said, "Don't be reluctant to fight, retreat immediately!"
There was silence for a few seconds, and a low voice came out, "Boss, let us fight..."
"I promise, I will bring Qin Wu's head to see you!"
Chen Xing exhaled and said slowly, "Brother, now is not the time."
His tone was sincere and heart-to-heart. He knew that as long as they met Qin Wu, the people of the Lei Guang Regiment would fight to the death. However, if he fights Qin Wu head-on now, even if he can kill the opponent, he will still lose miserably.
He also needs these brave brothers to accompany him on a longer journey. He cherishes everyone who has fought alongside him, so even if he wants to kill Qin Wu, he can only do so under the premise of minimizing losses.
The sound of heavy breathing came from the walkie-talkie, as if suppressing endless sadness and anger. Chen Xing did not rush, leaving enough time for the other party to think and calm down.
After a few seconds, the other side seemed to have made a decision, and the heavy breathing gradually eased, "Boss, I understand."
"It's hard for you." Chen Xing said.
Then he issued a retreat order to Xiang Caidi.
Half a minute later, the First Mobile Brigade of the Expeditionary Force and the First Elite Regiment of the Guards began to retreat.
The target of the retreat is the weathered rock community in the middle of the Ghost Crying Plain. After many days of discussion with Lin Shiyuan, this place was designated as the core defense point of the expeditionary force.
Weathered rock is a natural bunker, and the terrain is high, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
The main forces of the Central Army and the Right Army defended along the line, echoing the military stronghold of the Left Army in the north on the southwest side of the Nolan Snow Mountain. However, Qin Wu's speed exceeded two hundred kilometers per hour, while the retreat speed of the expeditionary army was less than one hundred kilometers.
Qin Wu is still seven kilometers away from the battlefield and will catch up within twenty minutes.
"You retreat first, I will be responsible for breaking up the rear." Chen Xing informed the command channel.
"How can this be done!" Huo Zui was the first to object.
"My master is rich in gold, how can I put myself in danger?" Jian Yue Canglian, the head maid and captain of the guard, also expressed objections.
"You can't go, what if something happens, how can I explain to my junior sister!" "The army cannot be without a commander for a day, sir, please think twice." "A good son-in-law must not be impulsive." Xiang Caidi, Ye Yang Zhengxiong and other commanders objected.
"Okay, you don't have to worry about it. Just execute the order." As if to increase everyone's confidence, Chen Xing's tone became frivolous, "Even the Witch with Golden Eyes can't do anything to me, so who does Qin Wu count?"
Everyone was silent.
Chen Xing actually survived for half an hour while being chased by Aaliyah. Although there are many people who doubt whether Aaliya is willing to let loose, after all, he is the pinnacle of human beings - the supreme power.
How on earth did a quasi-lord-level survive under the king-level? One can't help but doubt.
However, they would never say it in person, let alone here.
Questioning the Supreme Commander, are you not ready to mess around?
So, they all fell silent.
Another meaning of silence is agreement. At least Chen Xing, the supreme commander, can understand this and turn this understanding into reality.
The troops here continued to retreat, while at the other end of the battle line, in the plains hundreds of kilometers away from here, Lelionca and Viscount Ramon each led the main forces to attack the battlefield.
The only ones among the four-nation coalition worthy of the expedition's attention were Qin Wu and his gluttonous monarch.
Now that Qin Wu appears here, the other side is just paper.
Chen Xing's real tactic tonight is to attack in the east and attack in the west!
The troops withdrew, and Chen Xing's attention turned to Qin Wu, who was on the attack.
Three orbital beams descended in succession. Although they could not cause actual damage, they deeply provoked the majesty of the Undercurrent King.
The gluttonous monarch was completely angered, threw Qin Wu away in a furious rage, and roared angrily towards the night sky.
The red skin gradually lights up, the temperature continues to rise, sparks escape from the surface of the body, rising slowly, and a strong smell of sulfur assaults the nostrils.
His chest was beating and he let out a low roar. The dark red light like magma flickers on and off with the rhythm of breathing, seeming to be accumulating some kind of power.
"Roar!"
After about a few minutes, there was a deafening roar. I saw the Gluttonous Monarch's two thick hind legs kicking violently, and the ground suddenly sunk in like a nuclear explosion. The red body turned into a fireball and shot straight into the atmosphere.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the starry sky and turned into an orange-red light spot.
In space, the bolide flew for about three minutes, then drew a high-speed arc and passed a few meters away from the tactical satellite. The powerful kinetic energy caused the latter to instantly shatter and turn into countless flying parts and sink into deep space.
Chen Xing's scalp hurt slightly and he lost sight of the tactical satellite.
This gluttonous king can actually fly into space.
But the Gluttonous Lord soon returned to the ground. For carbon-based life, oxygen is necessary. Both carbohydrates and psychic energy need to be combined with oxygen to release energy.
Just this back and forth, plus the time to accumulate power, delayed Chen Xing for ten minutes.
"Come on, let's see how many times you can go to space."
In Chen Xing's joking voice, a rocket painted with a cigar skull detached from the launcher, lifted vertically, and flew into the atmosphere.
About ten minutes later, the distance between Qin Wu and Gluttonous Lord, who were following the abyss mark, and Chen Xing was shortened to twelve kilometers.
At this time, the launch of the new tactical satellite was completed.
"tumultuous!"
The orbital beam came again, landing on the gluttonous monarch's big head with incomparable precision.
The Gluttonous Monarch was immediately furious, but this time it learned the lesson, and instead of wasting time rushing into space, it pursued madly in the direction of the mark.
The Gluttonous Monarch on the satellite map was gradually approaching. Chen Xing, who was riding on the back of the Wolf King and was running wildly, pointed back, and the Goblin army poured out like a tide.
Are you happy with the sea of cannon fodder?
The propeller fighters and Bat Riders in the sky, the Goblins, Wolf Cavalry, and steam tanks on the ground are all so vast that one cannot see the end.
In the blink of an eye, the Gluttonous Monarch was like a toad trapped in a green quagmire. Although the goblin could not cause any harm, not even scratching it, it greatly hindered its forward speed.
No matter how much the Gluttonous Lord slaps, crushes, collides, or breathes fire, the goblins still come forward one after another, surrounding it ten layers inside and ten layers outside.
It used to be two hundred an hour, but now it's not even fifty.
In the next period of time, Chen Xing ran in front while releasing monsters, while Qin Wu and Gluttonous Monarch chased behind. The distance between the two sides has always been maintained at about seven or eight kilometers, and sometimes Chen Xing even has to stop and wait to prevent the other party from losing confidence in pursuing him.
In this way, Chen Xing led Qin Wu around the wasteland.
At the same time, the main forces of the left and right armies of the expeditionary force broke into the northern defense line of the coalition forces. Due to the gap in equipment and personnel quality between the two sides, they were like tigers entering a pack of wolves, killing people on their backs and turning the sky into darkness.
"The 37th Allied Infantry Division is requesting reinforcements!" "The 41st Allied Infantry Division is requesting reinforcements!" "The 17th Allied Infantry Division is requesting reinforcements!"
Messages for help poured in like snowflakes.
"The enemy's firepower is too fierce, we can't hold on any longer!" "They're invading!" "If the reinforcements don't come, we will abandon our position!" "Urgent report, the commander of the 37th Infantry Division has been killed!"
The battle situation on the Northern Front of the Allied Forces took a turn for the worse, and three consecutive infantry divisions were dispersed.
"Don't chase the defeated army, continue to attack the coalition defense line, and plow the entire northern line for me!"
The collapsed infantry division was like opening a wound in the defense line. The main forces of the left and right armies cut through the wound, and then divided into two groups to attack the enemy's rear camp and destroy military supplies.
"Don't be obsessed with fighting, don't pick up trophies, destroy them all where they are!"
Large quantities of military rations were burned, more than a dozen ammunition storage points were detonated, and hundreds of military trucks were destroyed.
After receiving the news about the northern front, Qin Wu went crazy. He screamed hysterically and cursed at the sky, but it was of no use at all. He was still trapped in the quagmire of goblins.
"Boss, we're already here!"
"Your Majesty, the First Mobile Brigade of the Expeditionary Force has arrived at the target location."
At dawn, the news came over the walkie-talkie that Huo Zui and Xiang Caidi had successfully retreated.
"The left army's combat goal has been achieved!"
"The right army's combat objective has been achieved!"
Good news came one after another from Lelionka and Viscount Ramon.
Seeing that the victory had been achieved, Chen Xing recovered the goblins and quickly evacuated the battlefield.
His abyss mark has been sealed by the Holy Light Holy See, Qin Wu cannot sense it, and the people of the Thunder Light Group have also gone away.
Qin Wu would never dare to stay away from the legion and go deep into enemy territory alone.
If Qin Wu really dares to do this, Chen Xing wouldn't mind giving him a ride.
The battle report came out soon, the expeditionary force was victorious!
More than 30,000 enemies were wiped out, three coalition infantry divisions were dispersed, one armored division was severely damaged, and a large amount of military supplies were destroyed, accounting for a quarter of the coalition's total supplies.
The results of this battle were fruitful. Except for the loss of more than half of Chen Xing's goblins, which would take some time to replenish, the expeditionary force suffered less than 3,000 casualties.
Aaliya immediately sent a congratulatory message: "Master Chen Xing, well done!"
"I now declare that you have been upgraded from a mouse to a puppy..."
Chen Xing automatically ignored the next words.
Subsequently, in order to strengthen the results of this victory and achieve the next strategic goal, Chen Xing held a press conference in the defense zone...
