Lord of All Gods

Chapter 1260: Chapter 1260 Use The Few To Defeat The Many

The morale of the two elite squads remained unshaken, unaffected by yesterday’s trials. If anything, it had only solidified. Their eyes glowed with unwavering determination, and the aura of battle emanated from them, dense and palpable.

A mere glance from them could send invisible ripples of pressure, forcing others to look away, unable to meet their gaze.

As they advanced, their presence alone pushed everyone else back. The sheer force of their intimidation made onlookers shudder in awe.

Ye Liuyun and Qin Peng observed this display of unwavering determination with immense satisfaction. It indicated that the practical effects of their training far exceeded their initial expectations. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

"Good heavens! These soldiers just finished training yesterday, and yet they’re back at it today?"

The other soldiers exclaimed in amazement as they watched the elite squads.

The subsequent training was led by Qin Peng.

With significantly fewer soldiers, they had to reorganize their formations and adjust their offensive and defensive strategies.

After a few days of intense training, the soldiers swiftly adapted to the new tactics.

To ensure their mastery of the strategies, Ye Liuyun mobilized an additional fifty thousand devil cultivators to coordinate with them.

This training was approaching real warfare, albeit focusing mainly on tactical formations.

The ordinary devil cultivator army was quickly defeated by these two elite squads.

Afterward, based on the practical situation, Qin Peng made slight adjustments to the formations. Once they adapted, he turned to Ye Liuyun for a challenge.

"How are you going to fight?" Ye Liuyun asked Qin Peng.

"If the scale is too grand, it might attract the attention of the foreign race. But if the enemy force is too small, it won’t serve the purpose of training our troops. It’s best to engage a well-organized army of a hundred thousand soldiers," Qin Peng suggested.

After some thought, Ye Liuyun proposed, "Then let’s lend this favor to the Devil Clan?"

Across the cities occupied by the Devil Clan, there was also an army of a hundred thousand soldiers. Ye Liuyun didn’t mind which side they fought. He thought he might as well assist the Devil Clan and help them out.

He couldn’t afford to engage the foreign race’s army opposite him directly. Any attack would immediately alert the foreign race, raising their suspicions.

"Good, I’ll send someone to investigate right away!"

Qin Peng agreed and promptly went to make the arrangements.

Three days later, under the cover of night, Ye Liuyun and Qin Peng led their two elite squads, totaling fewer than fifty thousand soldiers, out of the city.

They aimed to hunt down the enemy’s hundred thousand army, engaging them in a siege.

They entered the city occupied by the Devil Clan close to dusk on the second day.

Their arrival caused a stir among the defenders.

However, the enemy commanders didn’t pay much attention to this small group.

They knew there weren’t many of them after they saw the amount of warships. For the defenders, even if the enemy had an additional fifty thousand soldiers, it wouldn’t make a significant difference.

At worst, they would not attack the city of the Devil Clan in the near future.

So, their defenses remained at their usual state without any upgrades.

Upon seeing Ye Liuyun and his army, Zuo Mu, the commander of the Devil Clan, inquired, "Where are the rest of your troops? Didn’t they come with you?"

"The rest of our troops? There are none. It’s just us," Ye Liuyun replied casually.

"Just these few people?" Zuo Mu found it somewhat unbelievable.

Typically, the number of attackers needed to besiege a city should be at least twice the defenders’ strength to have a chance at success.

Ye Liuyun only brought fifty thousand soldiers. Even if he added his own forces, it probably wouldn’t be enough to capture the foreign race’s city. And if they managed to capture it, the cost would be extremely high.

"Are you kidding me?" Zuo Mu double-checked.

"Of course not! Do you think I will make fun of something like this?" Ye Liuyun replied with a smile.

"Alright, even if you’re not joking. I only have a total of a hundred thousand soldiers here. If we all accompany you to attack the city, our resources will be depleted!" Zuo Mu said with a worried expression.

He thought Ye Liuyun wanted to leverage the power of their Devil Clan.

"Don’t worry! These fifty thousand soldiers are more than enough." Ye Liuyun reassured Zuo Mu.

"What?" Zuo Mu was momentarily stunned, then said, "If you really only have these fifty thousand people to attack the city, it’s like sending them to their deaths!"

Ye Liuyun didn’t argue with him, simply stating, "Rest assured, I’m not that foolish. Just watch the show!"

Zuo Mu knew that Ye Liuyun possessed numerous methods and assumed he had come up with some new plan, so he didn’t say much.

"Alright, if you’re confident, that’s good! Let the soldiers come down and have something to eat. We knew you were coming, so we prepared some food for you in advance," Zuo Mu said.

"All right!"

Ye Liuyun immediately informed Qin Peng to let the soldiers have a meal first and then act later in the evening.

Qin Peng promptly signaled the soldiers to disembark and line up.

As soon as these soldiers lined up, Zuo Mu immediately felt something different.

The aura emanating from these people was terrifying. It was obvious that they were an experienced team.

Moreover, their formidable presence immediately caught the attention of all the Devil Clan soldiers in the city, sparking discussions among them.

"What’s going on? Which force is this, with such a powerful aura?"

"Is someone attacking us?"

Zuo Mu turned to Ye Liuyun once again, asking, "Are you really only bringing these fifty thousand soldiers?"

After receiving Ye Liuyun’s affirmative reply, Zuo Mu couldn’t help but gulp nervously.

"A force this strong, it’s regrettable even if just one soldier dies! Are you really going to do this?" Zuo Mu exaggeratedly asked.

"They just finished a combat drill, and half of them are already gone!" Ye Liuyun said with a hint of regret as he watched the troops march forward.

Zuo Mu’s jaw almost dropped in disbelief.

"What? Half of them are gone in a drill? You’re really..."

Zuo Mu was utterly at a loss for words when it came to Ye Liuyun.

Only someone like Ye Liuyun could achieve something like this, training an elite force where half of them perished in a mere drill.

"It’s about quality, not quantity!" Ye Liuyun explained.

He knew why Zuo Mu was shocked. After all, very few people were willing to train soldiers as rigorously as Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun couldn’t help but think that if they could achieve a decisive victory tonight, this method could be widely promoted.

After all, quantity was merely a facade. These elite small teams were the main force on the battlefield and often managed to surprise the enemy and secure victories.

After their meal, the soldiers wasted no time and immediately started practicing on the spot.

Every day, they were either training, fighting, or dedicating their time to refining their skills. freewёbnoνel.com

Observing this, the members of the Devil Clan couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.

"No wonder they seem so strong! It turns out they are constantly working to enhance their strength!"

After nightfall, accompanied by Zuo Mu, Ye Liuyun and Qin Peng gathered the troops.

"Assemble!"

Qin Peng ordered the soldiers to assemble, and after confirming the mission once again with the two team leaders, he commanded the troops to set out.
