After discussing with Hao Ren in the main hall of the 'Billow Cloud Residence', Yi Tian reluctantly agreed to help him, but he also made it clear in private that there would be no next time.
During this period of time, he had been preparing for the Land of Fire Source with all his might. If this continued to affect the major events later, the gains would not make up for the losses. In this regard, Hao Ren also said that there would be no next time, but he also explained why he was in such a hurry.
In the end, all of this was because of his idea to Luo Ziyan, to begin to relax the entry threshold of the Asura nobility. Therefore, these powerful people in the Tiger Army wanted to seize the opportunity to make a name for themselves.
Luo Ziyan had opened the door for the imperial guards stationed in the imperial capital, but there were also many well-informed members of the Asura army stationed outside the imperial capital. Naturally, they were not willing to be left behind, so they came to the imperial capital to seek help to see if there was a way to promote themselves.
This time, Cai Chaoqiong, the deputy commander of the Tiger Legion, came to Hao Ren. They had a good relationship and were from the same faction. So, after some discussion, they decided to make the first move and win the title of the royal family through the evaluation of military merits.
It was not only the commander who wanted to train, but the deputy commanders were also eager to give it a try after hearing the news. For combat cultivators, the only way to quickly promote their status was through military merits. At this time, the foreign forces that were usually watched were the first targets to be taken care of. After measuring the strength of their strength, Cai Chaoqiong secretly came to the imperial capital to ask Hao Ren for help.
And Yi Tian also understood Hao Ren's intention. Although he was appointed to assist by Yun Lin, he did not have the opportunity to really show his strength. It was reasonable for Hao Ren to try to find an opportunity to test his strength. Now that he was helping Yun Lin, it was undoubtedly a test of his strength.
Even if Yun Lin learned about this matter later, she would pretend not to know. So after thinking about it, Yi Tian decided to show his strength once and let Hao Ren know how strong he was through the Tiger Army's informants.
Presumably, after the event, Yun Lin would try his best to block the news and would not disturb him before the trial.
Three days later, sitting in the lounge of the Tiger Legion's warship, Yi Tian secretly thought about how to make a move in order to show his value without exposing too much of his strength.
Suddenly, a few knocks came from the cabin door. Cai Chaoqiong's voice came from outside. "Brother Yi, are you free? Please come to the main cabin for a chat."
Opening his eyes, Yi Tian replied indifferently, "Thank you for inviting me personally, I'll be right there." After saying that, he slowly got up and walked forward to open the cabin door. He saw Cai Chaoqiong standing in the aisle of the cabin, waiting respectfully.
It seemed that Yi Tian had also been secretly reminded by Hao Ren that he would not dare to disrespect him. Thinking that Yi Tian still needed his help, Yi Tian did not pretend to be pretentious and followed him into the main cabin of the warship to see what he had arranged.
After Shaoqing entered the hall of the warship, he saw many officers of the Tiger Army gathered around a huge table and were busy analyzing information. A huge sand table was set up in the middle of the table, and the terrain around Lone Wild Goose City was depicted in detail on it.
Yi Tian scanned the area with his psychic power and found that the city had the geographical advantage of being surrounded by mountains and rivers. It was also easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, there was a huge defensive formation around the city. It was impossible to break through without at least three times the number of soldiers.
After sitting down with Cai Chaoqiong, he heard Cai Chaoqiong say, "Thank you, Brother Yi, for your help this time. I am very grateful. I think we can capture the foreign resistance forces in Lone Wild Goose City in one fell swoop."
"Commander Cai, don't thank me first." Yi Tian was not as optimistic as Cai Chaoqiong. After looking at the sand table, he expressed his opinion. "This city is supported by a defensive formation. I wonder what brilliant plan does Commander Cai have to break through its defense?"
"There are only two ways to attack a city, either from the inside or from the outside. It's best to use both. That will certainly reduce unnecessary casualties," Cai Chaoqiong said with a serious face.
This was the orthodox way of using troops. It seemed that Cai Chaoqiong had also made preparations for this. However, Yi Tian thought that Cai Chaoqiong's expedition this time was a last-minute decision. Although he had many capable soldiers under his command, it seemed that he did not bring many people with him this time. At most, he had brought all the members of the auxiliary division with him. If they wanted to take down Lone Wild Goose City, they would have to pay a heavy price.
Moreover, speed was the most important thing in war. Cai Chaoqiong had discussed with Hao Ren when he returned to the imperial capital this time. He brought Cai Chaoqiong to meet up with the main division halfway and directly attack Lone Wild Goose City. He wanted to take the enemy by surprise.
After thinking about it, Yi Tian transmitted his voice to Cai Chaoqiong. "I wonder if Commander Cai has arranged for the people to enter Lone Wild Goose City. The most important thing in a long-distance attack like this is' fast '. The cooperation of all parties is very important. If any part of the operation goes wrong, all our efforts will be in vain."
Cai Chaoqiong's face twitched when he heard his own words. It was obvious that Cai Chaoqiong's words reflected his worries. Although Cai Chaoqiong looked calm, it was all for the sake of his subordinates. If even he, the commander, showed signs of anxiety, then this long-distance attack would be impossible to win.
However, the truth was the truth. Cai Chaoqiong's eyes inadvertently revealed a trace of surprise. Then, he replied through voice transmission, "Brother Yi is really amazing. With just a few words, you can understand the battle strategy of our army."
"It's not that I'm good at reading people's expressions, but I have to pay attention to Commander Cai's long-distance attack strategy." Yi Tian saw that his guess was not far from the truth. Then, he said seriously, "I wonder if you have a backup plan. If the enemy has already made preparations for the long-distance attack, how should we deal with it?"
"I've also thought about this, so I specifically asked the deputy commander of the Black Flag Army, Zheng Zecheng, for help. I think his fleet should also be on the way," Cai Chaoqiong replied.
"This way, the pincer attack of the two armies will be effective. However, Fellow Cai must grasp the timing well. Otherwise, it will alert the enemy and lead to unexpected changes." Yi Tian reminded.
Cai Chaoqiong revealed an awkward smile. Then, he continued to comfort Zhang Che, telling him that there was no need to be too nervous about this matter.
Three days later, the fleet arrived at the rendezvous point when they were three thousand kilometers away from Lone Wild Goose City. However, they didn't see any reinforcements from the Black Flag Army. Yi Tian sat in the main cabin and spread his divine sense in all directions.
This distance already exceeded the range of a normal Severed Soul cultivator's divine sense. It seemed that Cai Chaoqiong had considered this point before making this arrangement. However, Yi Tian's divine sense was far beyond his peers. It had already reached the range of an early Body Integration cultivator. Within the range of his divine sense, he didn't detect the slightest trace of a Black Flag Army warship approaching.
