Therefore, the hundreds of thousands of reinforcents promised earlier by the Seven Towns Alliance to the first mayor were nothing but "Void reinforcents."
Their real intention was to hope the first town could withstand the pressure until the strong n of the ngdu Group arrived to assist.
However, things took a turn; Ren Zhong never personally led his troops, yet the East Expedition Army captured three towns in a single day.
Even more terrifying is that till now, they don't know why these three towns were defeated so thoroughly and swiftly.
The intelligence from the town couldn't be transmitted at all; it's as if the attacked area beca an information black hole the mont the East Expedition Army arrived.
They tossed and turned, extrely anxious.
This state of mind even overrode their biological clock.
They must wait for a clear statent from the front-line inforr to feel a bit more at ease.
This group of upper-class individuals, who never stayed up late, rarely experienced the taste of insomnia.
Finally, at one in the morning, a loyal Fourth Level Gunsmith rushed back to the town.
"Ren Zhong's army has two particularly large airships that usually float at low altitude in tandem with the main force on the ground, but during sieges, they suddenly ascend and launch large missiles. These missiles don't fall directly into the town but explode in the air, causing a large swath of smart devices to beco dysfunctional. My motorboat also malfunctioned, and my weapons were completely unusable, so I ran all the way back!"
This person remarked.
By noon the next day, as the further reinforced East Expedition Army set off again and advanced simultaneously towards the fourth and fifth small towns, nearing their destination, death soldiers from the Seven Towns Alliance and a dozen Level Six Armored Soldiers launched a surprise attack.
After a bitter battle, the East Expedition Army annihilated the assailants.
The East Expedition Army suffered minimal casualties, but the losses were very severe.
The opponent's attack fully targeted the missile launch bays and anti-gravity devices of the low-altitude airships.
The exit of the launch bay was completely deford from the bombardnt.
The anti-gravity devices were entirely non-functional.
The airship was rendered immobile on the spot.
These are large-scale pieces of equipnt that cannot be repaired in the wild, and even Chromium Carbon Town doesn't have the conditions for such work.
Zheng Tian, after so deliberation, decided to continue advancing, capture the two towns ahead, then temporarily garrison, and commission Ju Qingng from Starfire Town to dispatch a transport ship to bring over the necessary equipnt for temporary repairs.
Thus, although the Seven Towns Alliance lost the newly gathered cutting-edge forces, they at least finally got an opportunity for a fair confrontation.
According to previous intelligence, the Third Army of the East Expedition was essentially composed of temporarily cobbled-together miscellaneous troops, serving as cannon fodder.
The commanders in the two towns believed that relying on their town wall-level towns, fortified by powerful military equipnt, they could persistently deplete the living force of the East Expedition Army and deal a heavy blow to Ren Zhong's morale.
But once the war truly comnced, they imdiately realized sothing was wrong.
The front-line warriors of the East Expedition Third Army, who appeared shabbily equipped and disheveled, were ferocious beyond imagination, exceptionally agile, with extrely harmonious coordination.
No matter how chaotic the battle seed, the charge formation of these "ragtag soldiers" was consistently coordinated, advancing at a terrifyingly fast pace.
Moreover, they were extrely adept at utilizing ground cover, with perfect complentarity between different professions.
The most infuriating was that although their equipnt looked old and tattered, its efficiency far exceeded the impression given by its simple appearance—a veritable hidden gem beneath unassuming debris.
Take for instance a certain Heavy cha Warrior leading with a shield. His giant shield appeared rusted and variegated.
As a result, others thought him vulnerable, but after continuous bombardnt on his giant shield dozens of tis, they realized they'd been deceived.
Even after concentrated fire, the giant shield remained structurally intact, the surface rust disappeared without a trace, revealing its true material.
This was clearly a super alloy, typically only available to Fifth Level specialized equipnt!
The Giant Shield Warrior was indeed feigning weakness!
By the ti others realized they were duped, the Giant Shield Warrior had already shielded several equally formidable comrades to the base of the town wall, swiftly planting high-explosive charges.
With a thunderous boom, a mushroom cloud soared into the sky, and this wall, resistant to the direct impact of a Level Five Ruined Beast, was forcefully blasted open with a huge gap.
Judging by the directionality and impact of the explosion, it was at least the handiwork of a Level Five Blast Master.
Inside the wall, experts tried to lead their team to block the gap.
Unexpectedly, a strong light erged from the middle ranks of the Third Army, and a huge energy beam pierced through the bombardnt and the gap, directly hitting the reinforcents inside.
The detection equipnt of the nearby people read the energy level index from this energy beam, which was astonishingly high.
This was a Seventh Level Gunsmith!
The shooter was none other than Wang Qiao, who had been biding his ti until now.
At this juncture, the defenders realized they had been tricked again.
The front-most cannon fodder troops were not so hastily organized ragtag soldiers at all.
They were the elite troops of Ren Zhong from Yangsheng City!
In other words, the First Army!
Nobody knew when the front and rear troops of the East Expedition Army secretly swapped positions, also changing their attire and disguising their equipnt.
Ren Zhong had no intention of letting the new recruits under his command serve as cannon fodder, but instead dispatched the strongest forces right from the start.
As for the Second and Third Armies in the rear, their real task was to learn from the actual combat experience.
The intelligence they had previously received was all false!
