Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 612 Soldiers only need to follow orders, but marshals have many more things to consider.

Bang bang bang!
One after another, the high-altitude detection soul guides in the sky exploded, sparks flew everywhere, and then a large amount of debris, emitting thick black smoke, fell from the sky.

Before those soul-guided cannonballs could even reach Xuanzi's side, they were completely destroyed by a meteor shower of earth-yellow light.

For a moment, the sound of explosions echoed continuously in the sky.

Below, at the soul-guided cannon positions, some soul-guided groups still chose to fire their cannons with all their might, while Shrek Academy experts and Star Luo experts entered the fray, using various soul skills to suppress their artillery fire, and together with Xuanzi, destroyed those high-altitude detection soul-guided devices.

Wang Yiheng, the leader of the Evil Lord Soul Master Corps, huddled in the woods, looking at the enemy who was displaying great power in the sky. His face showed contempt, as if he had already seen the group's inevitable defeat.

His mind raced: "Just as Lord Huo and the Marshal predicted, after the Shrek Academy experts finished their reconnaissance, they launched a major counterattack. This group of Title Douluos and Super Douluos should be leading the charge. Soon, the Star Luo Army and the Heavenly Soul reinforcements will be attacking."

With Master Kong here, the Star Luo army and the Heavenly Soul reinforcements have absolutely no chance of winning! Now it's time to implement the Marshal's plan.

Behind him, the soldiers of the Evil Lord Soul Master Corps were restless, staring intently at Wang Yiheng in front of them, hoping he would give the order to attack.

However, as the saying goes, military orders are absolute, and since Regiment Commander Wang Yiheng had not issued any orders, they naturally could not launch an attack.

Wang Yiheng turned around, looked at everyone, and said, "Abandon the position now and retreat. I know you may have some doubts about this order, but this is the plan made by the Marshal. Military orders are absolute. As members of the Sun and Moon Army, we must obey orders first!"

He didn't offer much explanation; the Sun and Moon soldiers only needed to follow orders, while the marshal had many more things to consider.

Only the high command of the army knew the details of the marshal's plan, which was nothing more than letting the enemy gain a temporary victory and luring them deeper into the enemy's territory.

The army left behind by the Sun Moon Empire in Mingdou should preserve its strength as much as possible, even if it means temporarily relinquishing the territories it has already occupied, since it can reclaim these places after a period of time anyway.

War is about the final winner, not about temporary gains or losses.

As for the Evil Lord Soul Master Corps, they naturally had to secretly maneuver behind enemy lines to encircle them and cut off their retreat.

"Yes!" Everyone nodded in agreement.

Soon, he led the Evil Lord Soul Master Corps to retreat.

Of course, similar scenes also occurred in many places in the Mingdou Mountains. Moments later, the Xingluo army and the Tianhun reinforcements surged in like a tidal wave. Just as they were about to kill the enemy, they saw a large number of Sun and Moon soldiers fleeing in panic.

The Star Luo army and the Heavenly Soul reinforcements naturally wouldn't let this good opportunity pass them by. They continued their attack, but because the Sun Moon Empire's flying soul tools were relatively advanced, the Star Luo army and the Heavenly Soul reinforcements sometimes couldn't keep up with the Sun Moon army's escape speed, so they didn't kill many Sun Moon soldiers.

after a while.

Xu Jiujiu stood in the middle of the army, protected by a group of guards and strongmen.

She looked at a scout who had rushed back from the front lines. The man was tall and knelt before her, reporting on the battle situation: "Marshal, as per your orders, our army and the Heavenly Soul reinforcements launched a counterattack, advancing with unstoppable momentum. Wherever they went, the Sun and Moon armies fled in disarray!"
The lost territory on one side of the Mingdou Mountains, originally belonging to the Star Luo Empire, has been completely subjugated, all thanks to the Marshal's brilliant command. I even heard soldiers on the front lines praising you as the Star Luo Empire's first female war goddess!

The title of "Goddess of War" certainly sounds impressive; it simply means that she is a brilliant strategist. As a young girl who successfully reclaimed lost territory in her first war, she was naturally extremely pleased to hear the scouts praising her while reporting on the battle.

After a long while, he smiled and said, "This is not only my achievement, but also the achievement of the Shrek Academy's strongmen, the Star Luo's retainers, and all the soldiers. Once this great counterattack is completely victorious, I will reward all the soldiers for their merits! You continue to go to the front line to scout the enemy's situation!"

"Yes, sir!" The scout stood up, fanned the flying soul tool on his back, and flew over the heads of the soldiers as if riding the wind and thunder, heading towards the front line.

"Princess Jiujiu, quickly issue the order for the army to continue advancing, all the way to the Sun Moon Empire, and capture as many cities as possible." Xuanzi's voice came from high above, and the next moment, accompanied by a streak of earth-yellow light like a shooting star, his figure appeared in front of Xu Jiujiu.

Xu Jiu looked at Xuanzi for a long time, hesitatingly: "Elder Xuan, to be honest, I feel that things have gone too smoothly. I originally thought it would be a fierce battle, but I didn't expect to recover the lost territory so quickly. Do you think there might be a trap here?"

"I am well-versed in military strategy, and I feel that we cannot immediately pursue them. We should first scout out the enemy's situation and learn about their current condition before deciding whether to enter the territory of the Sun Moon Empire."

As a border mountain range, one side of the Mingdou Mountains has always been under the actual control of the Sun Moon Empire. If the attack continues, it would mean entering the territory of the Sun Moon Empire.

Xuanzi waved his hand, a confident look on his face: "Princess Jiujiu, you've just read too many military books. The battlefield is ever-changing, how can you rigidly follow the contents of military books?"

Since you are well-versed in military strategy, you should know that many generals in history suffered defeats and died because they rigidly followed the content of military strategy, and were ultimately nailed to the pillar of historical shame!

The reason we were able to reclaim our lost territory so easily is mainly because our group of Title Douluos and Super Douluos are so powerful that the Sun Moon Army is extremely wary of us and dares not confront our strength directly.

This also shows that the Sun and Moon Army is currently unable to restrain our group of strong individuals. Otherwise, given the Sun and Moon Army's ruthless nature of killing Dai Hao and his group instead of capturing them, how could they have retreated so easily?

I am now increasingly certain that there are no Limit Douluos in the Sun Moon Army at present, otherwise they would have come out to intercept us long ago.

"You just lead the army forward. Those Sun-Moon Realm experts, leave them to me, the other Title Douluos, and Super Douluos!"

After listening to the other party's words for a long time, she felt that Xuanzi's analysis was very reasonable. She felt that she could not act rigidly according to the contents of the military book. So she nodded and said, "Okay, Elder Xuan, I will immediately order the army to continue the attack."

Xuanzi nodded, revealing an expression that said, "This child is teachable." Then he ascended into the air. He was going to lead the other powerful figures to the border of the Sun and Moon and teach these arrogant Sun and Moon people a lesson.

On the other side of the Mingdou Mountains.

Many Sun and Moon soldiers stood in front of the Soul Guidance Cannon position, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Star Luo Army and the Heavenly Soul reinforcements, ready to give them a head-on blow.

At this moment, in the temporary command tent, Ju Zi paced back and forth, listening to his trusted subordinates report on the situation.
