Almost in the next second, the sound of hooves that seemed to be able to overturn the entire land completely overwhelmed everyone's sense of hearing.
In front of these students who had never been on the battlefield, the first wave of strength of such a group charge had already achieved its effect.
What are you still standing there for? Don't you want to graduate anymore? Liang Cheng looked at the students who were momentarily at a loss for what to do. No matter how calm he was, he still had the urge to vent the anger in his heart.
The students immediately fell into chaos. They didn't know how to organize themselves in such a situation, nor did they know what they should do. For a moment, the formation actually began to fall into disarray. This was a problem that definitely shouldn't have happened to the students of the Deathmatch Camp.
Liang Cheng let out a disappointed sigh and left on his horse. Qin Hu, on the other hand, had already gone to meet up with the Qin Clan's Iron Horse Army.
Zhao Bei's expression darkened for a long time before she leaped onto a higher platform and roared, "All of you, shut up!"
If it was in the past, this kind of behavior that was obviously raising one's position too high would undoubtedly cause fierce opposition among these proud and arrogant students. But now, the departure of the two core leaders had caused these people to be in a complete mess. Zhao Bei's status was there, and now she was the first to stand up and carry the flag. Even Li Sanshi, who had just been choked by her, couldn't say anything.
Now, if we want to graduate, or if we want to survive, we can only rely on ourselves.
Zhao Bei cleared her throat. Her indifferent gaze seemed to have transcended the battlefield before her and saw the entire map of the empire. "Our Deathmatch Camp is training cold-blooded killers, weapons of war, and soldiers who are loyal to the interests of the empire. These aren't the most important things. The most important thing is how to achieve the goal of graduation."
"If the goal of the assessment is really as General Qin said, then we basically have no chance of graduating."
One of the students said in a low voice, "Although I don't really understand war, I know that this is a battle that has almost reached the level of an army. It's almost impossible for us to turn the situation around with just a few hundred people."
Everyone nodded in agreement. However, this only earned a cold laugh from Zhao Bei. "What's the goal of the graduation assessment?"
"To stop this war." That student was stunned at first, and then replied in a somewhat baffled manner.
How do you stop a war? Zhao Bei asked, not giving up.
Make one of the two sides in the war lose its combat power, or achieve the battle objective. The student continued to answer.
What was the goal of both sides?
The South Vietnamese side's goal was to take down Nanyang City, while the Empire's goal was to defeat the South Vietnamese invasion.
Judging from the current situation, which side's goal of war would be easier to achieve?
On the empire's side. The student thought for a while.
Then he said thoughtfully.
The earth-shattering battle cries soon became insignificant in front of the Deathmatch Camp's students who had undergone strict training. Liang Cheng had always been the kind of person who didn't care about anything, and this characteristic was vividly reflected in the students under her.
Putting aside their standpoints, the Southern Guard Pass was one of the four impregnable passes that had been accumulating since the founding of the empire. There was absolutely no problem with a single man holding the pass against ten thousand enemies.
Whether it was the imperial southern frontline army that had been garrisoned here for hundreds of years or the Sun clan's private army that had just begun to gradually take over the defense, their combat power wasn't something that could be casually ignored.
They were facing an army like the South Vietnamese that had suffered repeated defeats under the empire's vanguard. If they couldn't achieve victory, they would instead lose the Southern Guard Pass and even Nanyang City behind them. There was no need for the imperial military police to take action. These self-proclaimed pillars of the empire, these high-ranking military officials who argued until their necks were red, could directly commit suicide to atone for their crimes.
At this moment, the Qin clan's Iron Horse Army in the west and the Qian clan's Qinhuai Army in the east had received orders to reinforce the Southern Guard Pass. The empire's total number of troops was already equal to the South Vietnamese invaders.
Although most of these troops were still on their way, it couldn't be denied that it wasn't too difficult to wait at ease for the empire's exhaustion and logistics to be reorganized.
That's why our graduation examination is actually a combat mission the empire has assigned to us. The objective of this mission is to use all kinds of methods at our disposal to destroy the enemy's attack plan as quickly as possible and prevent Nanyang City from falling into enemy hands.
Why not Southern Guard Pass? If Southern Guard Pass falls, then Nanyang City will be directly exposed to the enemy's attack. Moreover, if our main force can't even defend Southern Guard Pass, how can we defend Nanyang City?
One of the students raised his hand. Apparently, he had already regarded Zhao Bei as the leader among them. Unknowingly, he had already begun to treat her with the courtesy of an instructor.
A grim smile appeared on Zhao Bei's face once again. "I don't think the South Vietnamese have come unprepared for this attack. We might not have the right to speak about the difficulty of attacking Southern Guard Pass, but there's no way the South Vietnamese, who have already lost millions of people here, wouldn't be unaware of this. That's why they must have their own trump cards for this attack. We must be prepared to fight the enemy in the streets within Nanyang City."
Hearing the term 'urban warfare', all the students fell silent at the same time. The South Vietnamese's attack this time could be said to be strange. The empire was currently in winter, and the southern district had no resources that could attract the South Vietnamese.
And the South Vietnamese's rash invasion at this time could only be described as strange. Now that the battle had begun, it was better to leave the more complicated strategic decisions to the empire to analyze.
There are many things that the battalion commander and General Qin haven't told us, so I'll take over and fill in the parts they haven't said.
Zhao Bei said indifferently, "First, this is not an examination, but a war. What we're facing is an executioner who has occupied our city and will wield the butcher's knife against our fellow countrymen, not the comrades we train with. I don't want anyone to lose the right to participate in the celebration feast because of unnecessary compassion.
Secondly, our combat units will still be arranged in groups. Each group will fight in a harassing manner, and do not engage the enemy directly. Our overall strategy will still be to assassinate and destroy. If we fail to strike, we will immediately retreat. Do not linger in battle. Thirdly, it is strictly forbidden to not support the allied forces. All grudges will be settled after the battle, understood? "
"Understood!" The students roared in unison.
According to the military's usual practice, all combat operations will have a code name. Our operation this time will be codenamed 'Sly Thrust'. "
Zhao Bei was silent for a moment, then said, "We may be a group of abandoned pawns, but we will let everyone know that even abandoned pawns can blossom with a hundred percent passion and a thousand percent brilliance!"
At the same time, within Southern Guard Pass. The one in charge of defending the pass was the Empire's Southern Front Army's General Zhu Long. This general, who was over fifty years old, stood on the walls, calmly watching the Nanyue soldiers fall into the moat, his face expressionless.
General, General Qin and the Princess of Liang Cheng have arrived. The soldier next to him said in a low voice.
Invite the two of them to the war room. Zhu Long's voice was a bit hoarse, but it was still very calm.
The two of them had come to Southern Guard Pass in their hour of need. Zhu Long wasn't good at socializing, but he still knew how to say some polite words.
Qin Hu clearly wasn't interested in such words. He only said indifferently, "Southern Guard Pass cannot be defended."
The soldier next to Zhu Long immediately revealed an angry expression, subconsciously wanting to draw his sword. The Iron Horse soldiers next to Qin Hu were clearly not to be trifled with. For a moment, both sides were at each other's throats, the atmosphere extremely tense.
Impudent! Liang Cheng said in an icy tone, "You two, one is a general of the Empire's Southern Front Army, the other is a core member of the Empire's grand family. Now that you are facing each other with your weapons, where do you think the Empire's heavenly might is?"
The bodyguards on both sides withdrew their weapons in unison. Zhu Long and Qin Hu also revealed a somewhat strange smile on their faces.
What General Qin said is also within my expectations.
Zhu Long pointed indifferently at the military map on the table and said, "The battle between the Sun clan and the southern army is still the focal point of Southern Guard Pass and even Nanyang City fifty kilometers away. Our battle map is definitely not one the high-ranking staff officers of the Empire have worked on. This also means that the actual battle pressure will be much greater than before."
Qin Hu said after a moment of silence, "The Iron Horse Army can't provide much reinforcements. We can only rely on the southern army and the Sun clan themselves.
We don't expect the Sun clan to provide much help. " A southern staff officer beside Zhu Long said angrily, "We're already very happy as long as they don't embezzle the Empire's provisions.
Who's speaking ill of our Sun clan? " A gentle voice suddenly arrived from the door. Soon afterward, an elegant young master in long robes strolled into the war room.
Young Master Sun. Liang Cheng said with an indifferent smile, "How is the Sun clan treating this war?
Our Sun clan's subordinates have already gathered private armies to reinforce Southern Guard Pass at full speed after hearing that a large number of Nanyue soldiers had appeared in the direction of Southern Guard Pass. Those who are too far away have even sent their vanguard to the Nanyue border in an effort to relieve the pressure on our comrades in Southern Guard Pass. "
Sun Yuhua said indifferently, "I, Sun Yuhua, am untalented, but I also rushed over immediately with my troops.
