Chapter 2098: Chapter 2096: Supervising the Battle

Chong Xuan looked at Wanyan Tiemu who was bluffing, and gritted his teeth secretly: "Issue the order, charge the pass."

Woo woo.

The sound of the horn echoed above the Fire Phoenix Army, but the tens of thousands of Demon Clan below hesitated and did not advance, blowing the horn for a long time, yet not even completing the formation.

This scene fell into the eyes of Wanyan Tiemu, who was instantly filled with anger and immediately looked to Chong Xuan accusingly.

"Does your Fire Phoenix Army intend to defy the order?"

Chong Xuan sighed heavily and said, "The Fire Phoenix Army was newly established, and even the basic framework is incomplete. Now soldiers don’t know their commanders, and commanders don’t know their soldiers. I’m helpless."

"Moreover, when the command was issued yesterday, many complaints arose from within the camp, and many newly attached Demon Soldiers want to desert. If it weren’t for the Wolf Commander’s aid in sending troops, I fear today’s Fire Phoenix Army would be half its size."

"Please be patient, I’ll have someone urge the advance."

Chong Xuan finished speaking and turned to the side: "Hurry up and urge them."

"Yes."

Lei Ba quickly accepted the order, but as he turned, a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he hurried to urge the troops.

Wanyan Tiemu did not let Chong Xuan off the hook: "Chong Xuan, stop playing tricks on me. The Fire Phoenix Army wasn’t like this the day before yesterday. Don’t think I’m easy to deceive. If you’re deliberately making trouble for me, don’t blame me for personally overseeing the troops."

Chong Xuan replied: "Today is not like the day before. Previously, my Fire Phoenix Army charged forward bravely because the General was present. Now that the General is absent, no one can unite the military spirit."

"Furthermore, it was agreed before that my Fire Phoenix Army would attack the city for three days and then have time to rest. This was stated by the Three Marshals. Now, as soon as my General has left for a day, the Three Marshals go back on their word, causing great instability and resentment within the army, which is hard to suppress."

Listening to the resentment in Chong Xuan’s words, Wanyan Tiemu coldly said: "Are you blaming the Lion Commander?"

Chong Xuan shook his head quickly: "I follow the commands, but the Demon Soldiers below don’t listen. I’m helpless since the Fire Phoenix Army is just a ragtag bunch..." Chong Xuan looked as if he was struggling.

After the horns sounded three times, the Fire Phoenix Army still hadn’t charged, and Wanyan Tiemu’s face was extremely sullen, looking at Chong Xuan, who pretended to be innocent.

"Hmph, a ragtag bunch not listening to orders, right? Then I’ll make you follow the orders."

Wanyan Tiemu said coldly and turned to the guard beside him, who nodded and left.

A moment later.

The Lion Clan guard stormed into the Wolf Riders camp, and soon, a unit of ten thousand Wolf Riders roared out.

The Lion Clan guard charged ahead of the Fire Phoenix Army and shouted in a Lion Roar voice: "Demon Soldiers of the Fire Phoenix Army, listen up. When the Cow Horn Horn sounds, advance toward First Line Pass. If you don’t proceed, you’ll be treated as defying orders on the battlefield."

Woo, woo woo.

After speaking, the sound of the horn rang again, and the Wolf Cavalry drew their curved blades at their waists, marching sinisterly towards the Fire Phoenix Army.

Fire Phoenix Army camp, on a watchtower.

Li Feng watched the Wolf Riders pressure and urge the Fire Phoenix Army, and couldn’t help but smile slightly: "It seems that things are progressing smoothly, as planned."

Zhuge Xuanji beside him sighed lightly: "That Demon General probably didn’t expect you to escape and still be plotting in the dark; otherwise, the opposition wouldn’t dare act like this."

It can’t be said that the Three Demon Marshals only know brute force. According to expectations, Li Feng should have been eliminated by now. The Fire Phoenix Army was formed barely half a month ago, mostly composed of cannon fodder from the three camps. In the eyes of the Eight Tribes, this cannon fodder is not even a threat.

When Feng Yang of the Fire Phoenix Clan was present, they could still rally them with their charisma, but now that the backbone is absent, the entire Fire Phoenix Army has only one old turtle to stabilize the situation, but clearly, they can’t hold it completely.

One could say that the entire Fire Phoenix Army is a loose band of sand. Facing such scattered soldiers, those Demon Generals above naturally wouldn’t care much, and those who execute the orders below treat it lightly, thinking the Fire Phoenix Army is easy prey.

Under such mentality, dealing with the Fire Phoenix Army is naturally less than gentle.

But the more it is like this, the happier Li Feng is.

In the strategy he gave to Chong Xuan, besides spreading the message, there’s also deliberately provoking conflict, having the Three Marshals drive the Fire Phoenix Army, shifting resentment onto the Eight Tribes represented by the Three Marshals.

The Wolf Cavalry began their eviction, and in the chaos, tens of thousands of scattered Fire Phoenix soldiers were pushed, and this clearly couldn’t satisfy the Demon.

"Kill."

At the order of the Captain of the Wolf Demon leading the team, tens of thousands of Wolf Riders raised their war blades and then spurred their wolves beneath them directly into the hesitant Fire Phoenix Army.

The next moment.

Blood splattered.

The war blades of the Wolf Riders slashed into the cannon fodder of Demon Soldiers in front, killing hundreds. Instantly, tens of thousands of previously hesitant Demon Soldiers started to move in panic, swept away by the Wolf Riders, rushing toward First Line Pass.

Watching this scene, Li Feng did not look again. Although the South Pass city wall of First Line Pass was dismantled, it does not mean First Line Pass lacks defense measures. The upcoming offense and defense on the plank road would be even more brutal.

"Let’s go."

Li Feng suddenly turned around, and Zhuge Xuanji said no more words, following Li Feng down the watchtower. After taking Bai Qian, the three vanished silently from the camp.

Several miles northwest of the camp, Zhuge Xuanji found a mark hidden on a tree trunk, and then followed the information on the mark, directly into the nearby mountain, later finding the arriving White Tiger Guard in a small valley.

"Think Tank."

Yang Feixue and Luo Huan approached Zhuge Xuanji. Zhuge Xuanji glanced at the White Tiger Guard, who, although traveling overnight, were in good spirits despite some fatigue.

"Yes, you all camp here, and we’ll head to First Line Pass to meet its guardian."

"Think Tank, take me with you. Leaving this place to Luo Huan alone is enough."

Yang Feixue couldn’t hold back.

Luo Huan rolled his eyes: "Why should you go? Think Tank, I want to see too."

After all, over two hundred years have passed, and they are eager to see their people; perhaps they might meet descendants of their own families.

Zhuge Xuanji looked at the two competing and glared: "Stay here and manage the White Tiger Guard well."

"You’re Yang Feixue, from the Ancestor Dragon Yang Family, right?"

Just when the two were a bit disappointed, Li Feng suddenly looked at Yang Feixue, who nodded: "Yes, what’s the matter?"

Li Feng said: "Bring him along, he might be useful."

Though Yang Feixue didn’t know what Li Feng intended, he was grateful for Li Feng speaking for him. Then he turned to Zhuge Xuanji: "Think Tank, I’m still of some use, take me along."

Zhuge Xuanji looked at Li Feng, saw him nod, and although unaware of Li Feng’s reasons for wanting Yang Feixue along, there must be a reason since Li Feng isn’t without wisdom despite the brief interaction.

"Alright, Luo Huan, this place is yours to manage."

Luo Huan looked aggrieved, but since Zhuge Xuanji said so, he couldn’t argue, so he nodded in agreement.

"Think Tank, should we take a group with us? We can’t just go alone; it lacks persuasiveness."

Yang Feixue said.

Over two hundred years, the White Tiger Guard reappears in the world, they can’t lose the momentum.

"Li Feng, what do you think?" Yang Feixue seeing Zhuge Xuanji hesitate, immediately looked at Li Feng, evidently thinking Li Feng as someone of the same mind.

"I think it’s a good idea, the momentum should indeed be maintained."
