Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

Chapter 136 ended, Zhao Gang was stunned



Chapter 136 ended, Zhao Gang was stunned

Zhao Gang never expected that on this battlefield where cultivators were fighting against evil demons, there would be Eighth Route Army cultivators other than the Independent Regiment coming to support them.

"Which group of monks is coming to rescue?"

At this moment, on that steep high ground, Zhao Gang and the other Eighth Route Army monks looked puzzled.

"The combat skills of these people are truly amazing. How dare a mere 300 people break into the ranks of the evil Japanese pirates alone?"

Witnessing this scene, Zhao Gang and the Eighth Route Army monks around him were deeply shocked by the courage and strength of the newly promoted Third Regiment.

During the past thirty-six hours of fierce battles with the evil Japanese pirates, they already knew how powerful these pirates were. The ordinary few hundred monks could not pose any threat to them at all.

However, at this moment, the more than 300 monks in front of them, led by their leader, rushed into the Japanese pirates' formation like wolves into a flock of sheep. It was as easy as harvesting crops for them to deal with the Japanese pirates, who were almost a squadron in size.

 …

"No matter which fairyland the reinforcements come from, now is our chance to fight against the monsters!"

At this moment, Zhao Gang was overjoyed, having come back to his senses from the shock of Cao Geng leading the new Five Elements Group disciples to break into the demon array like a divine army descending from the sky and start killing people.

He immediately called upon the remaining remnants of the Duli Sect behind him, and with a wave of his hand, he coordinated with the forces led by Cao Geng to begin to encircle and attack the monsters.

On the demon side,

"Evil beast!" The captain of the demon squadron roared angrily.

Seeing the large number of demonic forces in their squadron, they were about to capture Zhao Gang and others who occupied the high ground.

They never expected that the new Five Elements Group disciples led by Cao Geng would appear behind them.

Therefore, under the fierce attack of Cao Geng and other disciples of the new Five Elements Group, those barbarian soldiers were no match for the battle-hardened old monks under Cao Geng.

In an instant, the demons and barbarians were caught in a dilemma.

Soon, they suffered heavy casualties under the continuous attacks of the New Five Elements Group.

"We will temporarily withdraw our attack. Before dealing with the remnants of the Duli Sect on the high ground, we must first eliminate the unknown cultivator reinforcements behind us!"

The team led by Cao Geng actually consisted of only more than 300 monks.

The captain of the Yaoman Squadron believed that if they could suppress Cao Geng and his group first and then turn around to deal with Zhao Gang's troops, this would be the most sensible tactical choice at the moment.

After all, if the disciples of the New Five Elements Group were allowed to continue attacking their own army without taking any action, the demons and barbarians would be under irresistible pressure.

As for Zhao Gang and others,

They were just a tired team and could hardly pose much of a threat to them.

Once they can defeat Cao Geng and others, Zhao Gang's troops will be under their control.

However, just as the monsters were forced to turn around and deal with the attack of the New Five Elements Group with all their strength, Zhao Gang led the remnants of his troops to suddenly dive down from the high ground and engaged in a fierce close combat with the monsters.

In addition, Cao Geng and others had already recuperated their strength, and their cultivation was far superior to the demon squadron in front of them.

In an instant, this demon squadron was caught in a dilemma of being attacked from both sides. Soon after, with the joint efforts of Cao Geng and Zhao Gang, the entire squadron of demon soldiers died in despair on the battlefield.

"Is the battle over?"

When the battle came to an end, Zhao Gang and the others stared in amazement at the corpses of the monsters and barbarians scattered all over the ground.

They felt that all this was as unreal as a dream.

Half an hour ago, they were still worried that they might face annihilation;

However, half an hour later, it was those barbaric soldiers who were actually destroyed!

All this is thanks to the power of Cao Gengxin’s Five Elements Group!

It was Cao Geng’s new Five Elements Group that saved the lives of the remaining members of the Duli Sect!

Thinking of this, Zhao Gang no longer hesitated, and decisively led his remaining disciples to rush in the direction of Cao Geng, intending to express his gratitude to Cao Geng and discuss subsequent actions.

At this moment, on this battlefield filled with fluctuations of spiritual energy, Cao Geng did not even have the chance to greet Zhao Gang first, and immediately commanded the monks of the New Third Regiment to search for magic weapons and spiritual materials from the corpses of the fallen demons.

"Next, clean up the battlefield quickly. There is no time to lose. You only have ten minutes!" Cao Geng ordered sternly.

He knew very well that at this moment Ding Wei's troops were under fierce siege by a ghost coalition force of nearly 70% of its elite forces. If rescue was not timely, Ding Wei's side would be doomed.

Although Zhao Gang and his group had been rescued,

But Ding Wei's side still needs to cheer up and work together with Zhao Gang's troops to provide reinforcements.

Just as Cao Geng was instructing his monks to clean up the battlefield,

Zhao Gang, with his few remaining subordinates who still had some skills, walked up to Cao Geng.

"My fellow Taoist, I am Zhao Gang, the political commissar of the Duli Regiment. May I ask which sect you belong to? If it weren't for your help this time, I'm afraid our Duli Regiment would have ceased to exist long ago! Fortunately, you all arrived in time!" Zhao Gang stared at Cao Geng, his eyes full of gratitude.

The Dulituan monks who followed behind him also expressed their deep gratitude to Cao Geng.

Cao Geng smiled calmly, clasped his fists and said in return: "I have long heard of the name of Political Commissar Zhao! I am Cao Geng, the commander of the New Third Regiment, and I have come to assist your regiment in compliance with the order of the headquarters!"

"But now is not the time to chat. Although the battle here is over, the army under Captain Ding Wei is currently facing a siege by 70% of the ghost army's forces. We must rush to support Captain Ding Wei!"

Zhao Gang was stunned when he heard this: "Captain Cao Geng, could it be that when your new Third Regiment came to reinforce my Duli Regiment, you only brought more than 300 monks?!"

At this moment, Zhao Gang's face was full of confusion.

Originally, he thought that Cao Geng would lead all the monks of the New Third Regiment to rescue the Duli Regiment. Then, on another battlefield, there must be more monks of the Eight Desolations Army supporting Captain Ding Wei.

Unexpectedly, Cao Geng's next words made him freeze instantly:

It turned out that the number of monks in the new third group led by Cao Geng was only more than 300!

And at this moment, in the first battlefield where the main force led by Captain Ding Wei was fighting a large number of ghosts, there was no reinforcement?

In this case, wouldn't the situation on Captain Ding Wei's side be extremely unfavorable?

Cao Geng was well aware of Zhao Gang's worries, but he could only smile helplessly.

After all, the New Third Regiment had previously fought a fierce battle with the Ghost Tribe's Fourth Brigade outside the New First Regiment's base.

Now he can only mobilize more than 300 soldiers.

Just as Zhao Gang was confused and hesitant, preparing to discuss with Cao Geng how to reinforce Captain Ding Wei, Cao Geng suddenly asked Zhao Gang: "Political Commissar Zhao, do you have any strategy for rescuing Captain Ding Wei?"
