At Zuoyun Mount, the expeditionary army's barbarians were charging fearlessly. But when the Wolf King appeared on the summit, their orderly offensive formation suddenly fell into chaos.
Horns sounded one after another in the valley, as though urging the troops at the front line to retreat quickly.
P5092 carefully observed the barbarians' movements. He was sure they were not trying to trick them but were really retreating.
He also looked up at the giant wolf on the summit and asked Wang Yun, "Has anyone seen this mutated wolf before?"
Wang Yun searched through his memories seriously. "There have been several reports of wolves appearing. The first time was near Stronghold 113, but that stronghold was destroyed due to the earthquake in the Jing Mountains. The second time was in the Li Consortium's territory. It was said that a wolf pack attacked the troops there. "
"Does it have anything to do with the Young Marshal?" P5092 asked.
"Yes." Wang Yun said, "The Young Marshal first lived in Stronghold 113 and later went to the Li Consortium."
P5092 lamented, "I was saying that even the Young Marshal wouldn't be able to create another miracle against tens of thousands of barbarians. But in the end, a miracle happened right away."
However, they could not see what was happening outside the mountain, so they could not determine what was going on.
P5092 turned to look at Xun Yeyu. "With your perception, can you give us a rough idea of what's going on outside?"
"After the reinforcements outside arrived at Zuoyun Mount, they did not stop at all. First, thousands of powerful lifeforms invaded the expeditionary army. After that, the barbarians' vital signs rapidly decreased." Xun Yeyu said, "Based on the vital signs of those who came from the north and the giant wolves that have already appeared, I think those thousands of fast-moving lifeforms might be a wolf pack. A wolf pack made up of 3,000 giant wolves!"
As though to confirm Xun Yeyu's words, the Wolf King stood on the summit and howled. Its sharp howl seemed to be able to pierce through everyone's hearts.
The Wolf King's silver fur fluttered in the mountain breeze like a fluttering royal banner.
"The speed at which these wolves attacked was so fast that the barbarians didn't even have time to form an effective defensive formation. In just an instant, their rear was pierced through." Xun Yeyu continued, "Only the wolves have arrived now. The ordinary reinforcements are still rapidly approaching. It's estimated that they'll arrive at the battlefield in about ten minutes."
As he spoke, Xun Yeyu even used a black flag to simulate the movement of the wolf pack on the sand table.
"What a powerful pack of wolves." P5092 suddenly laughed. For some reason, he suddenly felt very excited.
This kind of emotion was very rare for him, because this surprise came too suddenly, and it was too shocking.
Honestly, P5092 could not imagine what kind of person Ren Xiaosu knew. How could he drive such a powerful pack of wolves to reinforce Mount Zuoyun?
However, he could imagine that there were thousands of strong wolves hunting outside of Mount Zuoyun right now. They were chasing the expeditionary army into the mountains like they were treating antelopes, and they were slaughtering them quickly.
P5092 pointed at the retreating barbarians and turned around to ask Wang Yun, "If we leave all these barbarians on this battlefield, will we have enough ammunition to defeat them?!"
Wang Yun said, "If it's just these barbarians and there aren't any other new expeditionary troops entering the battlefield, we'll definitely have enough ammunition."
After that, P5092 said to Ji Zi 'ang excitedly, "Topple all six peaks and cut off the expeditionary army's retreat. Although their reinforcements are very powerful, our Northwest Army isn't that bad either. They're fighting at the enemy's rear, so we absolutely can't let these barbarians go back to reinforce them. We have to split up their battlefield and reduce the pressure on our reinforcements! "
Ji Zi 'ang smiled and said, "Roger that!"
P5092 had thought things through very clearly. Although the reinforcements were powerful, if these barbarians were to charge back, the enemy would definitely not have it easy either.
For the past few days, P5092 had been racking his brains on how to turn the tables. He did not even get a wink of sleep for two days and two nights because he did not want these people from the Northwest to die here.
However, while he was waiting for an opportunity to win, the expeditionary army had been fighting steadily and not giving them a chance to do so.
Now that this opportunity had appeared, it was time to counterattack.
A moment later, P5092 said to Wang Yun, "Contact Luo Lan and get him to attack from the south and reap the spoils of war with us. Tell him that I'll leave an opening in the north for the barbarians to survive. Tell him to make full use of the mobility of his nanosoldiers and hunt down the barbarians! "
At this moment, Luo Lan was standing next to a river south of Zuoyun Mount, skipping water in boredom. Next to him, Zhou Qi said, "We've traveled for so long. Are we just going to wait here like this?"
Luo Lan chuckled and said, "What's there to be afraid of waiting? Neither you nor I are the commanders on the battlefield right now. Since we're here, we have to obey orders. It's not like you should act like you're the most awesome person here just because you're here to save them. Since we don't even know what's going on inside right now, of course we have to obey orders. "
At this moment, the radio operator jogged over and relayed P5092's words. Luo Lan chuckled and turned around to shout at his soldiers, "Brothers, it's time to get to work!"
With that, the crisp sound of guns being bolted rang out from the troops of nanosoldiers.
After the Li Consortium obtained the nanomachines, they seemed to feel that powerful warriors should have powerful weapons. So they created nanomachines that moved quickly on the blades to achieve the effect of cutting through polymers.
But in the opinion of Luo Lan and Qing Zhen, why didn't they use guns if they had them? Was it because guns were not that useful?
So the nanosoldiers he brought with him this time were all equipped with guns. The only difference was that these soldiers were all equipped with 40-millimeter howitzers that could be mounted and unmounted on their guns.
In Qing Zhen's words, the physical fitness of the nanosoldiers was only on par with that of the barbarians. So when they fought the barbarians, they had to have the same attitude and use heavy weapons to kill them!
Actually, the 40-millimeter howitzers were not expensive. But it was a little scary for a 2,000-strong army to be equipped with them.
A lot of people still did not realize that other than having a large territory, the Kyung Clan was probably the most powerful organization in terms of strength.
Over the past few years, Qing Zhen had been controlling the military to search for the lost technology that humanity had lost while using all of his financial and material resources to develop it. As such, time gave him a satisfactory answer.
Of course, it would be a little difficult for the Kyung Clan to equip all 2,000 soldiers with howitzers. They would need to urgently deploy them from the military factories or even from the active troops. But since they were here to save their friends, they had to show their sincerity in doing so.
As for the problem of the burden on the soldiers, the nanosoldiers did not need to worry about that.
The 2,000 nanosoldiers started marching into the mountains with the plan to eliminate all the surviving barbarians.
A coin known as "fate" was tossed high into the air at the start of the battle. It kept spinning in the air, and as long as it did not fall, no one knew who would emerge victorious in the end.
But now, the coin of fate had finally fallen.
The peaks of Mount Zuoyun began to crumble, and huge boulders fell to the ground. The retreating expeditionary army began to wail in pain. These barbarians who had been confident in their victory finally began to feel fear, and despair began to spread in the hearts of all the barbarians.
Six peaks collapsed at the same time, and a huge cloud of dust was lifted into the sky. Even the sky darkened, as though it was shrouded in dark clouds.
The sound of glaciers breaking apart rang out incessantly. The rumbling of the mountains crashing to the ground could be said to be the most magnificent sight in the world.
Most people had only seen a waterfall flowing straight down, but very few people had ever seen a mountain pouring down in torrents.
Some of the retreating barbarians were crushed under the mountains, while the rest had no choice but to turn around and return to the battlefield. However, they no longer had the will to fight anymore.
Some of the barbarians suddenly realized there was still a gap in the north and south. As such, the barbarians started fleeing in different directions.
When P5092 saw this, he felt relieved. That was because this was the real time to start reaping the harvest of the battlefield. The barbarians would only run away with their heads in their hands. They would no longer have the courage to fight back.
"What do we do now? Do we pursue and kill these deserters? "Ji Zi 'ang asked.
However, P5092 shook his head. "It's enough for Luo Lan to pursue and kill these deserters. Pass on my orders. We're going to take our weapons and form an encirclement with the reinforcements outside the mountains. We'll help them wipe out the expeditionary army in one fell swoop."
However, just as he finished speaking, P5092 and the others saw Ren Xiaosu running all the way to the front of the command tent. Ren Xiaosu grabbed Xun Yeyu and asked, "Are there any stragglers who have left the vicinity of Zuoyun Mount?"
Xun Yeyu asked, "Are there any stragglers? By themselves? "
"Yes, by themselves!" Ren Xiaosu said firmly.
"Yes, there was one whose vital signs were with the Experimentals before it left on its own. Before Luo Lan and the others reached the south, it took a detour and left. Now, it's making a big detour and is quickly leaving from the north." Xun Yeyu said, "But the vital signs of the Experimentals guarding behind us have all disappeared."
Ren Xiaosu's eyes lit up. "That's what I'm looking for. Let's go, I'll take you north with me. As long as it doesn't die in this war, I won't be able to rest easy!"
Actually, Ren Xiaosu really wanted to see someone right now. During the past year or so, he had been thinking of that person every day and night since they parted.
Although they were not related by blood, they had long regarded each other as family.
If this were in the past, Ren Xiaosu would probably have gone to look for Yan Liuyuan without hesitation. As for whether they would win the war or not, and whether there would be future threats to humanity, what did it have to do with him?
But the current Ren Xiaosu seemed to be different. He might still be the somewhat selfish Ren Xiaosu, but he understood what his choice meant and how many people's lives were at stake.
Since victory was already assured on the main battlefield, there was no need for Ren Xiaosu to stay here any longer. He looked in the direction of the Wolf King and said, "Wait for me. I'll come back as soon as I kill Black Robe. Although I really want to look for you right now, Black Robe must die."
