Chapter 431: Cannon Fodder Attack

In less than two hours, after witnessing the strength of Lisi Tribe’s long-range attack team and confirming that the main force of the Nika Tribe was indeed still in position, the Karter Tribe alliance quickly formed an elite unit to support the Lisi Tribe.

This entire elite force numbered only twenty million, all of whom were high-end combatants above level eighty.

The strong fighters were all deployed.

Other than two level 110 strong fighters, who stayed behind with a dozen level 100 strong fighters to continue commanding and reinforcing the defenses, everyone else joined the elite unit.

Without a doubt, the Karter Tribe alliance planned to wipe out the Nika Tribe’s elite army in this battle.

Before the Karter Tribe alliance officially set out, the commander of the human army, Tai Shi, received information quickly relayed from the Intelligence Organization.

“They’re finally coming!”

Tai Shi felt joy instead of surprise because this was exactly the outcome he needed.

He had led the human army to raid Lisi Tribe’s camp in order to draw out the Karter Tribe alliance’s elite forces for rescue, thus defeating the elite and high-ranking members of the Karter Tribe alliance and finishing this round of war in the shortest time possible.

After this battle, his military achievements would far surpass those of Rog and Zong Shan.

Both the Political Council and the Military would likely conclude that once the eastern human army successfully unified the entire blood-colored planet, a batch of viscounts would emerge.

And he would likely secure a position among the first batch of viscounts, maintaining his status among the top nobility of the Great Flame Empire.

The premise was that this battle needed to go as expected, easily defeating the Karter Tribe alliance’s elite forces and capturing most of the strong fighters.

You could say this battle held great significance for him.

Thus, even with ample confidence, he summoned all the High-ranking Leaders to discuss and formulate the most detailed battle plan, ensuring they could respond promptly to any unexpected situations.

…

The Karter Tribe alliance’s elite army consisted entirely of high-end combatants above level eighty. Although they could not move at full speed while maintaining formation, they were not slow either.

In about three days, they had already closed the distance to less than three hundred kilometers from the human army.

This was also within the expectations and control of the human army.

Because under the adjusted pace of the human army, both sides were now on an endless vast grassland.

It was the perfect setting for this decisive battle, allowing the human army to display its power to the fullest.

Without any hesitation, Tai Shi immediately issued the command to turn around.

The entire human army promptly abandoned their pursuit of the Lisi Tribe’s forces and tribe members, turning back to face the Karter Tribe alliance.

Seeing all three armies retreat, Manos and the strong members of the Lisi Tribe left behind breathed a sigh of relief.

They, too, issued a command to stop advancing.

The outcome was about to be revealed.

If the Nika Tribe’s elite army won, they wouldn’t be able to escape very far even if they tried.

It was better to surrender right there.

If the Karter Tribe alliance’s elite army won, they wouldn’t need to flee either; they could simply wait for the results and return to the Lisi Tribe more conveniently.

What they had to do was wait for the results and arrange their defenses as best as they could.

There was also the possibility that the Nika Tribe’s elite forces could suffer a total defeat and the scattered warriors could crash into the Lisi Tribe’s army and tribe members, causing great destruction.

Unable to withstand the long-range attack of the entire eastern human army, Manos and several strong fighters left behind firmly believed that they could easily fend off a small group of human warriors.

…

“Great!”

Upon hearing that the human army suddenly turned around, Chief Lisi’s face showed immense joy.

His biggest worry was that, with the emergence of the Karter Tribe alliance’s elite forces, Nika Tribe’s elite army would choose to launch a full-on attack against the Lisi Tribe’s forces and tribe members, forcing them to surrender.

Afterward, they might use the Lisi Tribe’s forces and tribe members to pressure him into surrendering or make the Karter Tribe alliance’s elite forces hesitant to attack.

This would create significant trouble for the Karter Tribe alliance’s elite forces and introduce many uncertainties.

Fortunately, the Nika Tribe’s elite army had likely felt that, being outnumbered, controlling the billions of Lisi Tribe members would require splitting their forces, so they abandoned this idea.

In this way, both sides would be relying on hard power without too many other factors involved.

Both armies began to rearrange their formations.

To facilitate the assault, the eastern human army refrained from forming a Giant Human Wall and instead used traditional formations.

After rearranging, both armies started to slowly advance toward each other.

The distance continuously closed.

Two hundred fifty kilometers, two hundred kilometers, one hundred fifty kilometers…

Both the high-ranking leaders of the eastern human army and the Karter Tribe alliance were full of confidence in this battle.

Everyone felt that the chances of victory for their side were over ninety percent.

As for the final outcome, it just depended on whose hard power was stronger.

“Launch the attack as planned!”

When the two armies were only fifty kilometers apart, Chief Karter was the first to issue the order.

In an instant, four strong ones from smaller and medium-sized tribes, each leading fifty thousand elite fighters, reluctantly advanced toward the eastern human army.

This attack was purely a test.

Calling them cannon fodder wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

These four were all strong fighters from smaller and medium-sized tribes, leading their tribe’s high-end combatants.

However, they could not refuse.

They had to obey orders.

Two hundred thousand high-end combatants charged out of the Main Group.

One route directly faced the eastern human army, moving slowly forward.

The other three routes quickly circled around, moving toward the other three routes of the eastern human army.

Tai Shi’s orders quickly followed.

Three ten-thousand-strong squads were immediately dispatched from the human army to face the other three routes.

“Attack with full power, break through their blockade!”

“Kill! Kill! Kill!”

As the four strong fighters led their high-end combatants to within ten kilometers of the eastern human army, they issued the order for a strong assault.

They themselves slowed their pace.

Layer upon layer, two hundred thousand high-end combatants could only charge at full speed toward the eastern human army.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The furious charge shook the entire grassland.

A terrifying aura surged toward the eastern human army like a crashing wave.

However, the entire eastern human army, including over eight hundred thousand elite fighters from various tribes, remained indifferent.

They did not take such intensity of the charge seriously at all.

“Thirty percent power, fire dragon attack!”

Just as the four cannon fodder armies charged at full speed beyond five kilometers, the squad leaders of the ten-thousand-strong squads simultaneously issued the order to attack.

In an instant, the four squads launched their fire dragon attacks.

Tens of thousands of fire dragons roared toward the charging cannon fodder elites.

Their might surpassed that of these cannon fodder elites.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The dense fire dragons allowed the front ranks of cannon fodder elites to dodge one, but they could not avoid the second one coming right at them.

They could only transform their right arms into shields to fend off the impact of the fire dragons.

When the fire dragons struck their shields, they sent them flying.

Though they only sustained minor injuries, the entire army’s momentum in the charge came to a halt, and all the cannon fodder elites behind became target practice.
