Chapter 1134 – What Is Special Forces Fighting Style

The 400 thousand strong Luzon army marched aggressively toward the Hanoi legion corps camp. They left dust stirring in their wake, opening up the curtain for the final battle in Mindanao.

To a certain extent, the outcome of this battle would decide the outcome of the entire war.

At 10 AM, the Luzon Alliance Army vanguard troops arrived at the front of the Hanoi legion corps camp. Looking out, the entire camp of the Hanoi legion corps followed the shape of the hill as it rose and dip, stretching numerous miles if looked down from above.

When the Alliance Army general saw that, his eyes froze. The enemy camp was a typical easy to defend hard to attack land. To break this defensive line was much harder than surrounding and attacking a camp.

However, since they were already there, there was naturally no reason to not fight. Furthermore, they had the numerical advantage, so they had even less reason to hesitate. After reorganizing and consolidating the formation that was getting a little chaotic, the Alliance Army charged toward the high ground.

“Kill!”

All of a sudden, killing shouts filled the air.

The two armies used the temporarily set up camp as a medium to engage in an intense battle. As a part of the Great Xia Army, the Hanoi Legion corps naturally did not lack courage and killing intent. Even when facing enemies twice their number, they showed no fear.

The Luzon Alliance Army similarly had a booming morale.

The heaven shaking killing started from 10 AM and last till night before it came to an end.

As the battle came to an end, the jade green hill was stepped on by the troops and was now empty mud. Tens of thousands of corpses were strewn across the hills. Blood flowed into rivers and a pond of fresh blood gathered up at the foot of the mountain.

“The Great Xia Army is as tough as the legends have it.”

Although the Alliance Army general praised the enemy, there was no loss of confidence in his words. Evidently, the performance of the Alliance Army today during the battle had satisfied him.

At the start, the Hanoi legion corps used the geography of the hill to defend the defensive line, putting the Alliance Army in a really detrimental situation. As a result, the Alliance Army suffered heavy casualties. However, when the Alliance Army started to gain their footing, their numerical advantage started to kick in.

In the afternoon, both sides were at a tie.

It was to the point where one could say that the Alliance Army was at an advantage when it was close to nighttime. They were lacking just a little more before they could totally tear apart the enemy defense line and occupy the peak of the hill.

“Tomorrow, we will definitely take it down.” The Alliance Army general was really confident.

Unfortunately, the Hanoi legion corps did not give him such a chance.

After both sides stopped fighting, the Alliance Army retreated five miles and set up camp to rest for the night. The Hanoi legion corps sneakily packed their bags, and during the next morning, before the sky was even bright, they left their camp.

At 8 AM, when the alliance aggressively charged up the hill, the camp was already empty.

“Damn it!”

The Alliance Army general was annoyed and immediately ordered the troops to chase.

Just like that, one chased and one fled, moving and stopping. A massacre occurred along the way and continued down south. Under the leadership of Xue Rengui, the Hanoi legion corps successfully completed the mission handed to them by the commander headquarters and led the Alliance Army out from Ilagan.

To achieve that, the Hanoi legion corps had paid a heavy price to let the Alliance Army believe that they were close to victory. Many times, the Hanoi legion corps fought back fiercely without caring about the sacrifices.

Just as the two armies were locked in a stalemate, a group of special troops were quietly moving. … 11th month, 13th day, the Yashan Squadron’s 1st division’s navy unit carried three thousand Divine Martial Guards and disembarked not far from Ilagan City.

With the help of the Black Snake Guards spies, they proceeded toward the city.

At close to nighttime, the Divine Martial Guards that successfully infiltrated the forest near the city quietly waited for night to fall. Once the cover of night enveloped the land, the three thousand Divine Martial Guards were like ghosts as they moved towards the city north wall.

On the wall, there were only a few patrolling troops and sparsely placed torches.

Under the cover of the night, the Divine Martial Guards blended as one with the darkness, unnoticeable to the naked eye.

“Go!”

When they smoothly arrived below the city walls, Xu Chu chose a blind spot and gave the order to attack.

Then five Divine Martial Guards walk forward. With a ‘Xiu!’, they tossed out the hook claw in their hands and accurately hooked onto the city wall.

Following which, the five of them climbed onto the city wall like spiders.

Next was the second wave, and then the third wave.

The ones who got onto the wall first used the dim light to sneak behind the defending soldiers. The dagger in their hands gleamed with a cold light as they slit the throats of the defending soldiers.

After they murdered these soldiers, they dragged the bodies to a dark corner and exchanged equipment with them. The entire process happened like it was trained, smooth as water without any sounds being made.

Along with the soldiers being killed one by one, the Divine Martial Guards who got the signal from their partners all quickly climbed up the wall. In just half an hour, all three thousand of them had gathered on the city wall.

The entire portion of the city wall had been cleared out.

This was why the Divine Martial Guards were so terrifying. After years of training and trials, they could be considered a special forces team. They were able to live up to the duties of a special forces army.

The Guards Legion Corps was still a distance away from this level.

After gathering up, the Divine Martial Guards did not spend too long on the city wall. They walked down and used the night sky as a cover to walk through alleys with the guide of the Black Snake Guard spies. They headed toward the city’s Lord Manor.

Along the way, they met patrolling troops. If they could avoid them, they would. If they could not, they would directly kill these troops.

The Luzon army was not composed of fools, and half an hour after the Divine Martial Guards had entered the city, the corpses were found, and the alarms immediately sounded.

The silence of Ilagan was broken, and it instantly became boisterous.

City Lord’s manor.

Luzon Lord Mading still had not slept, as the news from the frontlines that said that the Alliance Army was about to crush the Hanoi legion corps made him really excited. It made him completely lose the mood to sleep.

At that very moment, some soldiers reported that something unusual had happened on the city wall.

“Oh, did some rats enter the city?”

With 50 thousand troops defending the city, Mading was not nervous.

However, the following news made him realize the severity of the problem. Every 10 minutes, one patrol group would be ambushed.

The more terrifying aspect was that the entire group was crushed, and not a single body of the enemy was left, which showed that the two sides were not even on the same level.

All signs showed that these people were not simple rats, and if they did not treat them seriously, these enemies would become wolves.

“Quick, order the forces to gather toward the city Lord’s manor.” Mading did not know the reason behind the enemy’s attacks. Instinctively, he chose the safest order.

With the order given, apart from the troops guarding the city wall, the other troops scattered around the city all gathered toward the manor. The closer they were to the manor, the more closely packed the troops were.

Under such circumstances, even if the Divine Martial Guards were any stronger, they could not expose themselves to the enemy. There were just so few paths toward the manor, and each one was blocked by troops. Hence, there was no place for them to hide.

“Kill!”

Since they could not hide, they could only kill their way out.

Since the Divine Martial Guards had accepted this mysterious mission, they had naturally brought a secret weapon with them that could shock everyone at a crucial moment.

However, now was not the time to use that weapon.
