Chapter 794: Multiple Paths Forward

“It seems you all want to fight a battle first.”

Mares sensed their thoughts.

In fact, even if the Leaf Lion Clan leader and the elders agreed to surrender as a clan right now, he wouldn’t immediately present the contract for them to sign.

This is because the attitude of the Senior Military Officials of the Great Flame Empire is that a battle must occur.

Only through fighting can the high-ranking members of the conquered races understand the strength of the Great Flame Empire’s army.

This will ensure that the conquered races will obediently devote their efforts to the new round of expansion by the Great Flame Empire.

“Since that is the case, you may begin to arrange your troops! This space-type treasure will not restrict your Perception Ability. Therefore, you will know the troop deployment of our Great Flame Empire army.”

Mares said leisurely, “Then, based on the troop deployment of the Great Flame Empire army, make your arrangements. No matter what kind of plans you devise, I will not leak any information.”

“Of course, this battle feels more like an open card. While you know the troop deployment of the Great Flame Empire, the Great Flame Empire also knows exactly how many elite soldiers you have hidden in your stronghold, as well as in the star field and Deserted Stars surrounding Karl Planet.”

“You, you know about our secret troop movements coming to Karl Planet and the surrounding star field?”

The Leaf Lion Clan leader and elders were horrified.

“In fact, we even know that your plan was finalized one and a half months ago on a certain afternoon, with only the Sixteenth Elder opposing it. We also know the details of your Secret Meeting while it took place.”

Mares used his Perception Ability to transmit a Video Clip to the Leaf Lion Clan leader and the elders.

This Video Clip detailed the process of the Leaf Lion Clan leader and the elders learning about the annihilation of the Zhanxin Clan and secretly holding the high-level meeting.

The Leaf Lion Clan leader and elders turned pale.

They never imagined that their high-level meeting would be easily discovered by the enemy.

Even when they held the high-level meeting, there were strong members of the enemy hiding within their defensive barriers.

In terms of Top-tier Combat Power, they were utterly crushed.

Possessing an absolute advantage in information, even if the military strength of the Great Flame Empire were relatively weak, they could still easily defeat the Leaf Lion Clan.

Just as at this moment, knowing that the strong members and elite army of the Leaf Lion Clan had gathered on Karl Planet, the Great Flame Empire army could occupy those defenseless life planets first.

Then, based on the movements of the Leaf Lion Clan, they could attack the reinforcements sent by the Leaf Lion Clan.

With the capability for large-scale long-distance transportation, one hundred thousand soldiers could decisively defeat one million soldiers of the same level through separate attacks.

By mastering absolute information advantages and understanding the movements of the enemy army, they could achieve the same outcome: one hundred thousand soldiers defeating one million opponents.

The combination of these two factors was even more terrifying.

“Our Great Flame Empire army has completed its assembly. Are you not going to start giving orders?”

Mares reminded them.

The Leaf Lion Clan leader and the high-ranking leaders finally realized that the Great Flame Empire army had gathered.

An army composed of an unknown race with over one hundred and forty level soldiers, serving as the vanguard, began moving toward the stronghold of the Leaf Lion Clan.

This vanguard army had a total troop strength of only over seven million.

Without any hesitation, the Leaf Lion Clan leader immediately took out the communication stone to contact the commander at the frontline, informing him to form a strike team to defeat this vanguard army as quickly as possible.

Because of his powerful Perception Ability, he was certain that behind the vanguard army, the main force of the Great Flame Empire was not moving.

It was clearly not a trap or bait.

No matter what, showing enough strength would allow the Leaf Lion Clan to gain more initiative and influence at the time of surrender.

Soon, a strike team formed by a million elite soldiers surged out from the defenses of the Leaf Lion Clan’s stronghold.

This million-strong elite army had an average cultivation level reaching level 170.

“Launch the attack!”

The vanguard army, made up of seven million soldiers from the unknown race, was actually the eastern human army.

Commander Tai Shi calmly issued the attack order upon seeing the Leaf Lion Clan’s strike team appear.

In the next second, a sea of fire and fire dragons overwhelming charged towards the elite army of the Leaf Lion Clan, located four to five hundred kilometers away.

Screams filled the air.

In one-on-one combat, Leaf Lion Clan warriors, standing two major realms above, could easily avoid the long-range attacks from the human soldiers even at a distance of several hundred kilometers.

Moreover, with their own defense strength, even if they took the long-range attacks head-on, they could hold out for a while.

However, in team battles, there was nowhere to escape.

The shields covering their bodies were quickly destroyed under the onslaught of the sea of fire and fire dragons.

As the front-line Leaf Lion Clan warriors closed in to around three to four hundred kilometers, despair set in.

The terrifying sea of fire and fire dragons relentlessly obliterated their bodies.

The warriors of the Leaf Lion Clan in the front turned to ashes, while those in the back faced a similar fate.

After the front-line warriors were destroyed, they too soon faced complete annihilation.

In just a minute or two, the million elite army was entirely wiped out.

Behind the defenses, the Leaf Lion Clan soldiers were dumbfounded.

In the space-type treasure, Leaf Lion Clan leader and the elders were also left in shock.

They could never have imagined that the outcome would be like this.

How could a million soldiers, standing two major realms above, be completely wiped out without even getting within three hundred kilometers of the enemy?

“Damn it, which race is this? Why is their fire laws so strong, and their attack range even extends four to five hundred kilometers?”

“No wonder the Great Flame Empire would send an army with an average cultivation level of just over 140 as the vanguard. With such powerful long-range attack ability, even the defenses would be destroyed in an instant.”

“What should we do?”

The elders all looked towards the Leaf Lion Clan leader.

Without hesitation, the Leaf Lion Clan leader took out the communication stone and began contacting the commanders of the army lurking around Karl Planet.

One command after another was issued.

To counter such fierce long-range attack power and distance, he estimated that there were only two methods.

One was to form a more advanced strike team.

For instance, sending dozens of Strong Fighters level elders, who could rely on their powerful defense, to break into the enemy’s ranks.

The first option was absolutely impossible.

Because all of the higher-ranked elders of the Leaf Lion Clan had become prisoners.

And the risk was too great.

With such a concentrated long-range attack, if the Great Flame Empire sent strong fighters to intercept, even a strong team would find it hard to approach.

The other method was to advance from multiple paths.

Mobilize the army to swiftly attack this long-range attacking army from all sides.

The plan that the Leaf Lion Clan leader intended to use was this one.
