Wuyan Hong's body flashed, at the same time, he activated his Steel Manipulation Skill, and slapped a car beside him. The car immediately twisted, compressed, and condensed a layer of Iron Man Armor covering his body. Under the protection of the Iron Man Armor, even a 12.7mm heavy machine gun could not penetrate his defense.
Wuyan Hong leaped out, and behind him were 50 Wolf Fang Battalion experts who were above Level 30.
The Wolf Fang Battalion's Commander Wu Dahui and Vice-Commander Li Yuanda followed closely behind Wuyan Hong. Wu Dahui and Li Yuanda were the 2 strongest experts of the Wolf Fang Battalion, and not many in the Sky Wolf Battalion were a match for them.
The Eagle King's 4th Battalion quickly came into contact with the Wolf Fang Battalion, and from afar, they launched their assault, as countless bullets rained down on the Wolf Fang Battalion.
Under the barrage of bullets, 4 of the Wolf Fang Battalion's experts were instantly killed, while the rest of the experts used their abilities to evade the incoming bullets.
Wuyan Hong did not dodge or evade, allowing the bullets to land on his body. He was a dual-attribute Evolver with both Spirit and Strength, and the bullets could not hurt him at all, nor could they cause him to retreat at all. Even the strafing of a large-caliber heavy machine gun could only push him back and not hurt him at all.
Wuyan Hong was like a tank as he charged into the midst of the Eagle King's 4th Battalion. With a wave of his hands, he activated his Second Order Steel Manipulation Skill, and a number of sharp steel beams shot out from the reinforced concrete buildings, piercing the bodies of the soldiers of the Eagle King's 4th Battalion. In a single strike, all 8 of them were pierced by the steel beams, and blood splattered everywhere.
Wuyan Hong had killed 8 of them in a single strike, when suddenly, 2 of the 4th Battalion soldiers leaped out from the side, raising their guns and firing wildly at him.
Countless bullets rained down on Wuyan Hong's body, but they were all deflected by the Iron Man Armor he was wearing.
Wuyan Hong turned to look at the 2 soldiers of the 4th Battalion, and casually pointed out, causing the building beside them to split open, as the steel beams inside pierced through the bodies of the soldiers, nailing them to the wall.
Wu Dahui immediately transformed into a werewolf and shuttled through the ruins like a ghost. From time to time, he would jump out from a building and break the neck of a soldier of the 4th Battalion.
Li Yuanda was an Agility-based Evolver, and his speed was as fast as a specter. Many times, the soldiers of the 4th Battalion would only feel a gust of wind, and their heads would fall unknowingly.
Under Wuyan Hong's leadership, the Wolf Fang Battalion was like a pack of tigers and wolves as they slaughtered the soldiers of the 4th Battalion. Their own casualty rate was extremely low, other than the 4 who had their heads blown off at the start, there were only 4 who had been blasted apart by the grenades.
One officer came up to Chen Sheng Yong and reported anxiously: "Eagle King!! The 4th Battalion requests for reinforcements!! The enemy had mobilized a large number of high-level Enhancers!! There are even a few Evolvers among them!! "
Chen Sheng Yong laughed coldly as he stared at the officer, "Has the Wolf Fang Battalion made their move? Hmph! Wuyan Hong, you finally couldn't take it anymore? Convey my orders!! Immediately bombard the position of the 4th Battalion!! This is an order!! "
"Yes!! Eagle King! "The officer felt a chill run down his spine as he retreated.
Boom!! Boom!!
With a flash of fire, the entire area where the 4th Battalion was located was bombarded with a barrage of cannons. The concentrated barrage landed on the area, causing a number of buildings to be blasted apart. Debris flew everywhere, and the shockwave spread out in all directions, causing a number of huge craters to appear in the air.
The terrifying barrage rained down on the entire area a few times, turning the entire area into rubble. Not a single building above 3m was left.
"The Wolf Fang Battalion is only so-so. No matter how strong an individual is, they won't be able to defend against the cannons of aircraft. " Chen Sheng Yong looked at the area that had been reduced to rubble and laughed coldly: "5th Battalion! Attack!! "
If it wasn't for the fact that Chen Sheng Yong's subordinates had a limited number of artillery shells. He really wanted to fire a few more rounds, and flatten the entire area.
To be able to use an elite infantry battalion to exchange for the annihilation of Wuyan Hong's elite Wolf Fang Battalion, to Chen Sheng Yong, was an extremely worthwhile exchange.
Although the Eagle King's 5th Battalion's morale was low due to Chen Sheng Yong's indiscriminate bombardment, they still steeled themselves and charged towards Lang Son City.
6 soldiers of the 5th Battalion carefully made their way into Lang Son City.
All of a sudden, 6 sharp steel beams shot out from the rubble, piercing the bodies of the 6 5th Battalion soldiers, nailing them to the ground.
From the rubble, a 3m-tall robot-like man covered in steel leapt out, and made his way towards Lang Son City without looking back.
This man clad in steel like a robot was none other than Wuyan Hong. In the previous round of bombardment, he was the only one who survived. If not for the fact that he had activated his Second Order [Steel Manipulation] at the first possible moment, gathering a large amount of steel around him to form a thick layer of steel armor around him, he would not have been able to escape death.
"Damn Chen Sheng Yong! He actually dared to fire without differentiating between friend and foe!! You're ruthless!! Too ruthless!! "Wuyan Hong cursed in his heart as he ran.
Chen Sheng Yong's earlier round of bombardment had completely destroyed the Wolf Fang Battalion that Wuyan Hong had built up. There were 6 Evolvers within the Wolf Fang Battalion, and they had not even had the chance to show their worth before being blasted to smithereens. How could Wuyan Hong not be enraged?
At the same time, that round of bombardment had made Wuyan Hong feel the threat of death for the first time, and he became cautious, not willing to fight to the death with Chen Sheng Yong's troops alone.
With the Wolf Fang Battalion destroyed, Wuyan Hong fled. When the Vietnamese soldiers in Lang Son City saw Wuyan Hong, who was like a god in their hearts, being forced to flee, it was as though something had crumbled in their hearts. When the 5th Battalion of the Eagle King launched their assault, their resistance had weakened significantly.
There were pros and cons to leading the charge. The pros were that it could raise the morale of the soldiers at the frontlines, while the cons were that if the commander was defeated or killed, it would be a huge blow to the troops. It would be a huge blow to the troops.
Wuyan Hong had led the Wolf Fang Battalion as the vanguard, and they had never lost a single battle in the past. They were practically a legend amongst the Vietnamese Empire's troops. Now that the legend had crumbled, the morale of the defending troops in Lang Son City had also been halved, and they were forced to retreat.
"Lang Son City will be mine soon!!!" Chen Sheng Yong listened to the reports and his heart was filled with joy.
As long as he could gain control of Lang Son City, Chen Sheng Yong would be able to soar to the skies, and become an overlord with a huge survivor force.
Right at this time, an officer came up to Chen Sheng Yong with a pale face and reported: "Eagle King!! There's an armed force moving towards us!! "
Chen Sheng Yong's eyes flashed with shock as he gritted his teeth and asked: "What? How many of them are there? What faction is it? "
The officer gritted his teeth and replied: "They're the 1st Battalion of the Kingdom of God!!! From what I can see, there are at least 2,000 of them, and their equipment is top-notch. There are even tanks, heavy artillery, assault helicopters and other heavy weaponry! "
Chen Sheng Yong's face turned steely as he cursed: "Damn Kingdom of God!! Didn't they go to the coastal defense?! Why would they appear here?! What the hell are you guys doing?! Why didn't you investigate properly?! "
It was the Kingdom of God who leaked the news to Chen Sheng Yong that Wuyan Hong's troops were empty, at the same time, it was to ease Chen Sheng Yong's heart. The Kingdom of God had also deployed their main forces to the coastal defense.
The Kingdom of God and Chen Sheng Yong had an agreement, one would occupy Lang Son, the other the coastal defense, and they would support each other. Chen Sheng Yong did not expect the Kingdom of God to stab him at such a time, furthermore, it was after he and Wuyan Hong had suffered heavy losses, leaving him with no way to resist at all.
The officer asked with a pale face: "What do we do? Eagle King!! "
Chen Sheng Yong immediately ordered: "What else can we do! Retreat immediately!! Convey my orders! Retreat immediately!! "
"Wait a minute! We can't retreat!! " Right at this time, there was a voice from outside, as a blonde foreigner stepped into the camp.
"How do you do, Your Highness Eagle King! I'm your good friend Zito! I'm very happy to see you here! "Zito smiled at Chen Sheng Yong.
Chen Sheng Yong's face turned steely as he asked: "Sir Zito! What's the meaning of this! Didn't we agree that Lang Son is mine, and the coastal defense is yours?! "
The person in charge of communicating with Chen Sheng Yong was this man called Zito. Chen Sheng Yong was extremely clear about the capabilities of the Kingdom of God, and for him to be able to amass so many heavy cannons to attack Wuyan Hong, it was all thanks to the Kingdom of God.
Zito had a crafty smile on his face: "Your Majesty Eagle King. We did not go against the agreement. Lang Son is indeed yours. However, the Vietnamese branch of the Kingdom of God hopes that you can join us, and become one of us. That way, we can better support your cause in Vietnam. As for the coastal defense, after we've taken down Lang Son, we can also join forces there to take them down. "
Chen Sheng Yong fell silent, before replying softly: "What if I don't agree to join?"
Zito's face carried a faint smile as he threatened: "Your Majesty Eagle King, our 2nd Regiment is already on standby near Thai Nguyen City, in charge of guarding your base, and preventing other factions from spying on you. However, if you're not willing to join us, and become our friend! I'm afraid something unpleasant is going to happen! "(To be continued).
