East Domain, Central Mountain Range.
There were endless mountains here, and some peaks even pierced through the clouds.
At a glance, one could only see the clouds above the peaks, like a heavenly realm.
The continuous mountain range was like a crouching giant beast, looking extremely dangerous, causing one to feel a chill in one's heart.
Meng Jun led a hundred thousand strong army into the Central Mountain Range with high morale.
Meng Jun was one of the eight Wu Huangs who attacked the eight sects. The Liujian sect he occupied was the sect closest to the Central Mountain Range.
Along with him was the sect leader of a sect in the North Domain. His name was Liu Zhangyi, and he was a pinnacle level four Wu Huang who was over sixty years old.
"General Meng. Lord Lin Yun already said that this is only to survey the terrain. Remember not to be impulsive. "Liu Zhangyi reminded as the two rode at the front of the army.
This time, Long Woo-seok sent the two of them to the Central Mountain Range with a hundred thousand strong army just to survey the Assassination Society, and not to start a war with them.
After all, they were not familiar with the Central Mountain Range. The Assassination Society had the advantage of timing, geography, and manpower. They did not want to start a war without understanding anything.
Glancing at Liu Zhangyi, Meng Jun sneered and mocked, "Sect Head Liu, you're getting on in years. Since you don't have the skills, don't do it. "
"Now that we are facing a great enemy, we are still cowering. If we meet the army of the Assassination Society, I will think of a way to take them down and make a great contribution. "
Ever since he lost to Yasuo in the Longhu sect, Meng Jun had been unsatisfied. He wanted to make a great contribution to the army as soon as possible so that others would look at him in a different light.
"General Meng, you are wrong." Liu Zhangyi stroked his white beard and did not care about Meng Jun's mockery. He advised with good intentions. "Since Lord Lin Yun already said that we are only surveying the terrain, let's not cause so much trouble."
Meng Jun did not refute and nodded impatiently. He did not take Liu Zhangyi's words to heart.
There were a total of five mountains in the central mountain range, all of which pierced through the clouds. The purpose of the army this time was to survey the geography of one of the mountains.
Along the way, the army did not encounter any enemies from the Assassination Guild. Occasionally, they would encounter demonic beasts, but facing so many living people, even if it was a large number of demonic beasts, they did not dare to act rashly.
In order not to alert the enemy, the army ignored these demonic beasts when they encountered them.
As the sky gradually darkened, Meng Jun led the army and arrived at the mountain peak that they wanted to survey.
"General Meng, we've arrived," the adjutant said.
Meng Jun waved his hand and ordered the army to survey the surroundings.
"This place looks pretty good. On the way here, there is a small mountain river that can provide water. Even if we have to fight a protracted battle, it will still be possible." Liu Zhangyi looked around and felt a little happy.
"Although it's cloudy now, when the smoke dissipates at noon, I think we should be able to see the situation of the Assassination Guild in the basin."
Meng Jun looked ahead. Right now, there were too many clouds, and there was only white in front of him. He couldn't see anything clearly.
"General Meng, look around. We can still see the other four mountains. If we can take down all four mountains, we can definitely take down the basin in one fell swoop!" Liu Zhangyi laughed heartily. He felt that the heavens were looking after them. The Assassination Guild actually did not arrive at the mountain peak first.
As long as their army was stationed on the mountain peak, with 100,000 troops, coupled with the terrain of the mountain that was easy to defend and hard to attack, they could really hold the pass with one man.
"It seems that the Assassination Guild is just a motley crew. After being in the Eastern Region for so long, they actually don't know how to first occupy the peak area. What a joke. "Meng Jun sneered disdainfully.
Liu Zhangyi did not seem to agree with Meng Jun's words. He secretly shook his head but did not refute.
As long as the Meng Jun stationed here and did not act rashly, there would definitely not be any problems when the army of the Northern Region arrived.
"Report!" At this moment, a soldier ran in front of the two with a nervous expression. He knelt on one knee and said, "Generals, there are people from the Assassination Guild in front!"
"Let's go and take a look!" The joy in Meng Jun's heart was hard to suppress. He was still worried that he would not be able to gain merit this time. He did not expect that there would actually be people from the Assassination Guild appearing here.
Meng Jun completely ignored Liu Zhangyi. He picked up the soldier and flew forward.
Liu Zhangyi knew that something was wrong and hurriedly followed behind Meng Jun.
Not long after, Meng Jun and Liu Zhangyi arrived at the edge of a cliff on the mountain under the lead of the soldier.
The fog here was not that thick, and they could see the situation halfway up the mountain.
At this moment, the halfway up the mountain was brightly lit. There were also hundreds of military tents stationed here. From the clothes they were wearing, it was obvious that they were people from the Assassination Guild.
"Even the heavens are helping me, Meng Jun!" An uncontrollable smile appeared on Meng Jun's face. He could not help but laugh out loud.
"General Meng, we should report this matter to the commander!" Liu Zhangyi said.
"Sect Leader Liu, those who achieve great things do not bother with trifles." Meng Jun frowned. There was already a trace of anger in his tone as he said in a low voice, "Look at the location where they set up camp. It is obvious that they came for this mountain."
"There are hundreds of military tents, and there are only 50,000 people. We have 100,000 troops now. We should take them down in one fell swoop while it is still dark! "
"Meng Jun! Do you still put Lord Lin Yun's orders in your heart! " Liu Zhangyi flew into a rage. He pointed at Meng Jun's chest and questioned him if he was going to disobey Lin Yun's orders.
But in the next second, Meng Jun suddenly pulled out his saber. His eyes were cold and emotionless as he pointed at Liu Zhangyi and said in a deep voice, "When a general is outside, he does not obey the sovereign's orders! I am the commander of this 100,000 troops. If you are afraid, then go back first. When Lord Lin Yun blames me, I will bear it alone. "
"Just don't wait for me to take down these people from the Assassination Guild. Once I get the credit, you, Liu Zhangyi, will want a share of the profits."
"You!" Liu Zhangyi was angered by Meng Jun's words to the point that his entire body trembled. He pointed at him but could not say anything.
Meng Jun coldly snorted. He put away his saber and took out the military flag. He ordered, "Pass down my order. After midnight, take advantage of the darkness to attack the Assassination Guild!"
"Yes!" That soldier saw that the two generals were arguing, but he did not dare to say anything.
He was just a small soldier. He followed the lesson that Lin Yun had taught him before he left the army. On the battlefield, he had to obey orders absolutely.
"General Meng! Then we will split up. I will go back and inform the headquarters. I hope that you will be careful and not act rashly! " Liu Zhangyi had lived a few decades longer than Meng Jun. He always felt that something was wrong, but he could not tell why.
Meng Jun impatiently waved his hand. The scene of him taking down the Assassination Guild appeared in his mind.
