120: Chapter 120 What is false can be real; what is real can be false!

The enemy placed great importance on their medical unit, actually dispatching a powerhouse of the Sanhe Realm to guard it.

Fortunately, Li Mo had brought a large quantity of heavy weaponry. Currently, high-end heavy weapons could at least affect, or even directly kill, martial artists below the Heaven and Earth Realm.

This was the reason why Li Mo had to dodge in advance when facing the cluster bomb barrage from the Baiou Empire last time.

If Li Mo hadn't left the forest in advance, the entire Moyu Squad might have been wiped out.

"Order the Heavy Artillery Position to prepare! Once the battle begins, the First, Sixth, Eighth, and the Huben Company will be responsible for the passes at the front and rear, doing their utmost to hold off the enemy's attack! We must try our best to annihilate the enemy's medical unit!"

After issuing his orders, Li Mo immediately looked at Zhang Ruxue: "Company Commander, is there any problem with my arrangement?"

Zhang Ruxue shook her head and said helplessly: "Don't call me Company Commander anymore; we are equals now! Besides, Marshal Zhao ordered both Vanguard Battalions to obey your command alone, and I will act according to your requirements!"

Li Mo respected his former superior, but that didn't mean Zhang Ruxue lacked social savvy.

Li Mo's command authority was now above hers; Li Mo could mobilize soldiers from both Vanguard Battalions, whereas Zhang Ruxue could only mobilize the 2nd Battalion.

However, most of the soldiers in the 2nd Battalion were from the Huben Company and were considered Zhang Ruxue's old subordinates. Li Mo still had to give Zhang Ruxue some face; after all, the Huben Company could only function at its best under her command.

"Since that's the case, Company Commander, I'll trouble you to lead the 2nd Battalion to hold the front pass. Be extremely careful; if you can't hold them off, retreat immediately, because the enemy's vanguard is very strong!"

"Yes! Zhang Ruxue acknowledges the order!"

Following this, Zhang Ruxue led the 2nd Battalion as they rushed to their designated combat positions.

For Li Mo, this medical unit was a tough nut to crack. The Vanguard Battalions totaled two thousand men. Zhang Ruxue was taking seven or eight hundred to block the road ahead, Xu Feng was taking three or four hundred to cut off reinforcements at the rear, and with the several hundred in the Heavy Artillery Position, this accounted for the majority of the soldiers.

Yet Li Mo had to take the remaining three hundred-plus men to wipe out the enemy's medical unit of over ten thousand!

However, facing this situation, Zheng Jiahao, Wu Yuqing, and others beside Li Mo were extremely excited!

"Thrilling! Li Mo, I knew there would always be excitement when following you!"

"Interesting! I want to see if the Black Earth Tribe has any powerhouses who can fight me!"

The three hundred-plus men following Li Mo were almost all battle fanatics within the army. They weren't afraid; instead, they were sharpening their knives, eager for the slaughter!

Seeing this, Li Mo slowly raised his hand, preparing to issue the order to attack.

However, just as he was about to order the Heavy Artillery Position to bombard, he immediately sensed something was wrong.

"No, this medical unit is a trap! It's very likely a decoy thrown out by the enemy!"

Li Mo had long heard of this medical unit from the Black Earth Tribe; it was considered the only unit in the Black Earth Tribe with relatively strong discipline.

Because the people of the Black Earth Tribe were almost all crude and vulgar, practically total soldiers-turned-scoundrels, their unit discipline was extremely poor, and they committed all sorts of crimes when plundering the enemy.

The Black Earth Tribe's medical unit was the only one that underwent special cultural training, so the discipline of this unit was almost comparable to that of the Great Xia.

But Li Mo observed that the people in this unit were not only playing around while marching, but there were even instances of smoking and drinking. If it were ordinary times, that might be fine, but a massive battle of the century was about to begin; for a disciplined unit, this was simply inconceivable.

Li Mo told Zheng Jiahao his discovery, and only then did Zheng Jiahao observe this point as well.

"Li Mo, it's fortunate you didn't issue the attack order just now. This unit must be a decoy thrown out by the Black Earth Tribe's commander, specifically to lure us into attacking! We almost fell for it!"

"Morpheus is cunning and sly; the Black Earth Tribe's medical unit must have been placed elsewhere by him!"

Zheng Jiahao gasped.

In fact, the truth was just as Li Mo had observed. Morpheus had arranged for special forces to protect this unit and had also made everyone in this unit change into the uniform unique to the medical unit, just to confuse the enemy.

The more importance Morpheus showed for the medical unit, the less the enemy would suspect that it was just a decoy.

This could also be glimpsed from the conversation of these Black Earth Tribe people.

"Hey! Do you think Marshal Morpheus needs to be this careful? We are still marching! Could the enemy possibly launch a surprise attack on us at this time?"

"Exactly! Why not wait until we reach the battlefield before making us pretend to be the medical unit?"

"Forget it! We do what the Marshal says! Being a little extra careful is never a bad thing. If the people from the Great Xia or the Baiou Empire dare to launch a surprise attack on us, then they'll be in for it! Hahaha!"

This so-called medical unit was actually composed of the elite of the Black Earth Tribe's top units, with a basic cultivation level of at least the first grade of the Blood Transformation Realm. If Li Mo had truly attacked just now, he likely would have had no chance of winning at all.

The combat power of this unit was even stronger than the vanguard at the very front!

"Let them pass!"

After guessing that this was an enemy decoy, Li Mo immediately issued a new order. With so few men, there was no need to clash head-on with the enemy's elite.

Following that, this so-called medical unit passed through Li Mo's ambush point.

Although they had missed an opportunity, Li Mo was not discouraged. He couldn't figure out the layout of the enemy commander, Morpheus, but he did understand one thing.

In the entire Black Earth Tribe army, only the medical unit was the most disciplined. Therefore, whenever he saw a unit with strict military discipline, it was highly likely that it was their medical unit.

Li Mo waited patiently. After waiting for another moment or so, a unit wearing ordinary Black Earth Tribe uniforms passed below them.

This unit looked different from the other Black Earth Tribe units at a glance. Not only was their marching pace uniform, but there was almost no extra conversation during the march, and everyone was even stern and composed, with discipline as strict as the Great Xia troops.

Zheng Jiahao gave a soft exclamation: "Looks like it's them!"

This unit had no special protective troops and looked quite ordinary, but this could not escape Li Mo's eyes.

Li Mo saw this and gave a cold smile: "This Morpheus claims to have been studying Great Xia culture, playing these games of 'make the void real, make the real void' with us. However, when it comes to the art of war, we in the Great Xia are their ancestors!"

"Everyone, listen up! Prepare for battle!"

"Notify the Heavy Artillery Position: 10 seconds from now, give me a saturation bombardment on the area below! Don't worry about the ammunition! As for the rest, carry out the mission as previously instructed!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Following Li Mo's command, the next moment, countless meteors streaked across the sky, and then, like falling meteorites, they densely bombarded the cave below, which was packed with people!
