Tian Yuan Xian Ji

The sun was shining brightly and the sky was clear. Inside Leizi's cabin, Legion Inspector Duan Yanping sat upright, while Tang Ning, Inspector Fang Jing, Vice Captain Wang Qi, and the main stewards of the first and second columns were all listening to orders below. .

"The current location of the headquarters is less than [-] miles away from Changshan County. After entering Changshan County, the headquarters will still be divided into three routes. The first column will attack from the left and the Balanting. The third column will attack from the right and Zhangwan Pavilion. I will lead the second column to attack the Wuyan Pavilion from the middle, and go straight to Tongyuan City." Duan Yanping pointed to the thin line on the desk and said.

"The Mubei monsters don't deploy many troops in Tongyuan City, and they only have a few regiments in the front line of Tingcheng. With the strength we have, taking Tongyuan City is not a problem at all. The only worry is that Mubei Demon follow-up troops support."

"When you lead your troops to attack, you need to advance carefully to avoid falling into the enemy's trap. Every time you leave a pavilion, you must immediately send someone to inform me, and then attack the next camp of the enemy."

"Yes." Several people responded one after another.

The warship traveled north through the clouds and fog, and soon passed the border of Changshan County. Tang Ning led the third column away from the main force, turned to the right, and headed for Zhangwan Pavilion.

……

"There are ten wings under the headquarters. After integration, seven wings are fully staffed. As for the eighth, ninth, and tenth wings, the number of staff is less than half of the entire formation."

"The warships of the various ministries have been assembled, which can guarantee the expenses of the five regiments, and they are allocated to the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth regiments respectively. The other regiments add up to only two Fengling ships, ten Xuanling ships and fifty Yuanling ships."

"Let the full-staffed warship alliance take the lead, and the other several alliances organize elite teams to respond at any time."

……

In the cabin of Tianling, Tang Ning, Fang Jing, Wang Qi and other stewards were discussing the deployment of the upcoming battle. A man outside strode in and bowed to salute: "Uncle Tang, according to my disciples' findings, the enemy army is in Zhangwan There are two lines of defense deployed in the pavilion, and there are a large number of giant cannons on the left and right sides of the outer wall, and there are about two regiments guarding it, and there is also a sixth-tier low-grade formation that integrates offense and defense."

"Apart from Zhangwan Pavilion, are there any other camps near the enemy?"

"No, all the enemy forces are concentrated in Zhangwan Pavilion."

"How many troops are there?"

"This...disciple doesn't know."

"Okay, you go first!"

The man backed away.

"I judge that the enemy's strength in Zhangwan Pavilion will not exceed half a column. Let the first, second, third, and fourth regiments go first, take down the outer defense line of Tingcheng, and surround the large formation inside. Let's fight each other again."

.........

Many warships lined up and meandered. After Tangning gave the order, the four regiments they belonged to immediately changed their formation and moved forward at a faster speed.

At night, the moon was bright and the stars were thin, most of the column had approached Zhangwan Pavilion City, less than [-] miles away, and the first, second, third, and fourth regiments had already formed a double-team and drove towards the city pavilion. , With a loud bang, the battle started immediately, shells from both sides attacked each other, and clouds of air flow rose up.

On the deck of the Column Sky Spirit Ship, Tangning and a group of column stewards looked towards the direction of Tingcheng. As time passed, the battle ahead became fiercer. The enemy army defending the city sent out many monsters. The self-healing power caused a lot of trouble for the four or three alliances attacking the city, and hundreds of monster corpses held up the attack of the three alliances.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, the enemy army's demon corpses are powerful in fighting power. They can't be so hard-headed. It's useless to increase casualties. You see, the offensive of the four alliances in front has obviously slowed down." Fang Jing said.

Wang Qi said: "The demon corpses are indeed difficult to deal with. Their strong self-healing power makes them not afraid of warship shells. We must send an elite team to attack and kill the demon corpses precisely."

"Fang Daoyou, I will trouble you to lead the elite team to stop the enemy's demon corpse."

"Okay." Fang Jing nodded, and soon selected an elite team of more than a hundred people from each wing, and headed towards Tingcheng.

With the addition of Fang Jing and others, the situation immediately reversed, the pressure of the front several regiments dropped suddenly, and the morale was high. As the troops advanced, the giant cannons on the city wall were destroyed one by one, and the enemy blew the retreat horn. It's like defeating a mountain.

The coalition forces pursued all the way, and when Tangning and the others entered the city walls, the pursuit team also returned one after another. In the distance, several escaping lights shot towards them.

"Fang Daoyou, you've worked hard, how are you? Are you not injured?" Tangning went up to greet him, seeing blood on his body, she asked.

"It's okay, it's the blood sprayed by a monster in the transformation stage. I led the team to chase for hundreds of miles. Seeing the enemy's internal support arrived, I stopped the attack and led my troops back."

"Have all the casualties of each department been counted?"

"Senior, the headquarters lost fifteen Yuanling ships and two Xuanling ships, with 210 and nine casualties, including 89 dead and missing, and 130 injured." The captain of the first regiment replied.

As soon as his voice fell, the captain of the second regiment immediately said: "The headquarters lost thirteen Yuanling ships and one Xuanling ship, with 180 nine casualties, 78 dead and missing, and 110 injured."

……

Each alliance will report the casualties one after another. The loss of each alliance's warships is about [-]%, the number of deaths is less than [-]%, and the number of injuries is more than [-]%.

Generally speaking, this casualty ratio is still acceptable, after all, it has an absolute advantage in military strength and combat power.

"Plateau." Tangning called out after listening to the reports from all departments.

"The disciple is here." Gao Yuan responded.

"Pass an order to the directly subordinate wing to leave two brigades to be responsible for cleaning up the battlefield and carefully search for missing persons in the headquarters."

"Yes." Gao Yuan took the order and left.

"Since the enemy army has hid in the large formation inside Tingcheng, we need to take advantage of the situation to pursue it. We cannot delay the time. The team continues to march towards its large formation, ordering the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth regiments to be the vanguard, and first attack the enemy. The army is surrounded."

……

Most of the column did not stop much, leaving only the two brigades directly under the wing to clear the outer battlefield, and then headed towards the enemy camp.

When the column rushed to the location of the enemy's large formation, where there was still the Mubei demon figure, the enemy inside had already fled, leaving only an empty camp, in which the rooms, halls and altars were still standing. exist.

"I didn't expect the enemy to flee so quickly. I thought they would hold out for a while." Looking at the empty camp in front of her, Tangning said with a smile.

"The Mubei monsters don't have many troops in Tongyuan City. They can't wait for the reinforcements from the rear, so naturally they don't want to fight with trapped beasts." Fang Jing said: "It would be best if we can take down Zhangwan Pavilion without bloodshed. .”

Wang Qi continued, "Since the enemy has abandoned Zhangwan Pavilion, shall we send someone to report to Senior Duan?"

Tang Ning glanced at him. Originally, he planned to finish all the affairs and delay for a day before reporting to Duan Yanping. The enemy troops in Zhangwan Pavilion fled without a fight. They took Zhangwan Pavilion so smoothly, it is difficult to guarantee that Duan Yanping will not be defeated. They will be transferred to attack the Wuyan Pavilion, especially when the second column's battle is not going well and the troops are insufficient.

Delay for a day, and then report the battle situation, thinking that the battle over there is almost coming to an end.

He didn't want to wipe other people's asses around like a firefighter.But I didn't expect Wang Qi to bring it up so soon, and it was still in front of so many people.

"Then Daoyou Wang will take a trip on behalf of the headquarters! Ask Senior Duan whether the headquarters should stay put or continue to advance." With so many people watching, Tangning naturally would not refuse the proposal, otherwise the news would reach Duan Yanping's ears. It's not very good for yourself.

Even with Nangong Muxue's relationship, Duan Yanping would not offend him for such a trivial matter, but after all, he is directly under his superiors, and he would throw a small shoe over at every turn in the future, and it would be uncomfortable for anyone.

"Okay." Wang Qi nodded, said a few more irrelevant words, and left the column.

"Fellow Daoist Wang is quite active." Fang Jing said something with a half-smile until he left.

"They are both monks from the Jiang family, so they are naturally close. I heard that Senior Duan is also the direct supervisor of Fellow Daoist Wang within the Jiang family," Tangning said calmly.

"No wonder he is so active in announcing the good news to Senior Duan."

"Since Fellow Daoist Wang has gone, let's wait for Senior Duan's order! All the ministries will be stationed here first."

"The enemy army has not been here for a long time, do you want to lead some elite personnel to pursue it?"

"Forget it, don't chase after the poor. Senior Duan gave us the order to take down the Zhangwan Pavilion. Since the enemy is far away, we don't need to make extra troubles and increase unnecessary casualties. Let's wait for Senior Duan's next instructions!"

Everyone rested at this point.
