Chapter 1086: Charging Up the Mountain to Kill
"Hmph, consider yourself lucky!" Dao Feng glared at Zhao Lei.
"Haha, I’ve always been lucky, no need for you to count it." Zhao Lei replied casually. These people love to show off, but his boss is a top-notch martial artist who is always humble and treats people well, unlike these hot-tempered folks with little skill.
After standing for a while at the Black Alliance’s gate, they didn’t plan to rush in directly, even though the enemy’s troops were mainly concentrated around Qishan. However, the Sword God didn’t believe the enemy would be foolish enough not to guard the city gate.
Sure enough, the sentries at the city gate immediately informed Hao Shuai upon seeing hundreds of people.
Yet, Hao Shuai wasn’t bothered, thinking what kind of waves could hundreds of people create, and directly ordered to ignore them and focus on searching.
After adjusting his emotions, the Sword God stepped to the front of the team and said, "Brothers, I won’t say much else, let’s do our best, it’s time to show what we’ve got, kill them hard!"
"Understood!" everyone replied in unison.
"Alright, let’s move out!" With a command from the Sword God, team members started heading to one side of the city gate. The Sword God is the uncle of the Red-eyed Eagle, so he knew the layout of the Black Alliance headquarters, and not far from the gate, at the position where Chen Tianlong had climbed before, it looked high but was safe to climb.
The reason was simple, it was a woodland area, and also a blind spot for cameras.
All three hundred were experts, so they quickly got across. However, as they were preparing to head to Qishan, Zhao Lei suddenly said, "My boss instructed us to take down the enemy’s weaponry room; otherwise, we’ll face serious consequences."
The Sword God’s brow furrowed, realizing Zhao Lei was right. If they fought barehanded, they might hold out for a while, but if the enemy used weapons or explosives, it would be suicidal.
Hence, under Zhao Lei’s leadership, a team decisively moved towards the weaponry room.
As it was early morning, the guards were just waking and hadn’t changed shifts yet. Shortly, Zhao Lei led eight members close to the Black Alliance’s weaponry room, where ten guards stood at the door.
As Zhao Lei waved his hand, eight of the Sword God’s disciples swiftly surrounded the guards from both sides, suddenly flashed in front of the eight guards, and killed them before they could react.
After eliminating the guards, the Assassination Team quickly hid the bodies next door and got the keys from them to open the weaponry room’s door.
Zhao Lei and Dao Feng entered simultaneously. Dao Feng gripped the large knife, turned back, and said, "Everyone step back a bit, I am going to destroy all these weapons."
Once they were at a safe distance, Dao Feng tightly grasped the Profound Iron great knife, gathered his strength for a few seconds, and suddenly swung it, sending a powerful Sword Qi flying out.
"Boom..."
A light sound echoed, and most weapons were shattered by the Sword Qi. Dao Feng swung a few more times, destroying virtually all the weapons. He looked around, satisfied, and Zhao Lei widened his eyes.
So this guy has some skills, no wonder he’s so cocky.
At this moment, Dao Feng smiled proudly, as if saying, "You know my power now, huh? Still want to talk back?"
Zhao Lei spotted that Dao Feng’s strength was unexpectedly at Celestial Dao five stars, quite impressive.
"Wow, big brother’s knife skills are amazing! What should I call you?" Zhao Lei intentionally flattered.
"Hmph, smart of you, I’m Dao Feng, that man was my dad, the Sword God, our family mainly specializes in knife skills, ranking among the best in the world." Dao Feng bragged after Zhao Lei praised him.
"Haha, Dao Feng big brother, truly remarkable, teach me a few moves sometime." Zhao Lei continued buttering up.
"Sure, but I need to check your aptitude first. If it’s not good enough, I might not take you in."
Dao Feng was evidently very proud, walked over, and looking at the broken swords scattered on the ground, he felt a sense of achievement.
Zhao Lei ignored it and swiftly moved to a pile of gunpowder bombs, saying, "Everyone, this is black gunpowder. Each person choose a few and pull out all other fuses to prevent the enemy from using them."
Dao Feng froze, immediately realized, and directly said, "You, grab one each, and follow my commands later."
Now that the weaponry room was occupied, there was no need to linger.
The group stealthily reached the foot of Qishan, and after observing for a while, there were almost no people at the foot of the mountain, but the mountainside was crowded.
After gathering for a while, Zhao Lei instructed, "Sword God, we need to send a vanguard team to clear the path up the mountain, and report immediately upon encountering anything."
Since the mountain entrance was narrow, only about two meters wide, and required a big turn to climb, Zhao Lei was a bit worried.
"Dad, let me go," Dao Feng volunteered.
Besides his father and Lu Botong inside, his strength was the highest. If there was danger, he could handle it. They didn’t have many people to begin with and couldn’t afford to lose any.
Hearing this, the Sword God nodded, saying, "Alright, but be careful, don’t underestimate the enemy."
At this moment, the Sword God seemed to recall something and quickly said, "Zhao Lei, later take thirty brothers to ambush at the mountain entrance, I’m worried the enemy may discover us and encircle us, leaving us unable to advance or retreat."
"Yes, Sword God, we vow to guard the mountain entrance," Zhao Lei swore.
The Sword God smiled contently and nodded.
Now, Dao Feng began ordering, "Everyone stand, follow the original plan, feigned attack, follow orders, First Squad, charge forward, kill a few enemy soldiers when encountered, but don’t linger, after killing, retreat as soon as you see the main force."
"Yes, Captain." Dao Feng was the First Squad’s leader, so after receiving his father’s orders, he immediately turned to his team members and shouted, "Get ready, start attacking the mountain."
With a command, a hundred people started rushing up, while other team members at the mountain’s foot began to advance.
Upon hearing, the soldiers guarding various mountain paths, who were dull and listless, suddenly heard the commotion from below, startled, immediately stood up and began to be alert.
These people, exhausted from the night’s fierce battle, weren’t prepared to fight, so the formation was chaotic, some were unarmed.
Dao Feng initially wanted to feign attack, but seeing the enemy so disorganized, he immediately changed strategy, commanding over one hundred soldiers to kill their way up.
Thus, at the first checkpoint, the enemy suffered countless casualties instantly, with the rest captured. Next was the second checkpoint, which had successive turns. Dao Feng was not reckless, calling ten soldiers to follow him and scout ahead.
