Douluo Continent: The Evil Tiger Subdues the Eight Desolations, and Marries Zhu Zhuqing

At this moment, Xiao Zhan was calculating the strength of his troops.

Tian Dou still has a total of 80,000 men capable of fighting, but their morale is low. If they were to engage in a head-on confrontation, even if they won, half of them would die.

Just then, Lin Ye walked over with Zhu Zhuqing.

Lin Ye walked to the edge of the city wall, glanced down, and pursed his lips.

"Is that all the people?" Lin Ye turned to look at Xiao Zhan.

"Grand Marshal, why do you look so pale? You're panicking because the enemy has sent 50,000 men?"

Xiao Zhan turned his head and looked at Lin Ye.

That's 50,000 people. If each of those 50,000 people spat on the ground, they could drown a person. And you still think it's not enough?

"Captain Lin." Xiao Zhan suppressed his anger.

"The enemy has 50,000 elite troops, along with siege equipment. Our Tiandou Taxi troops just finished fighting yesterday and haven't had a proper rest yet. This battle won't be easy."

Lin Ye picked at his ear and said nonchalantly:

"What's there to be afraid of? We'll meet force with force, and water with earth!"

Xiao Zhan was stunned for a moment; he hadn't expected Lin Ye to say such a relaxed thing.

Lin Ye continued, "Grand Marshal, listen to me. On the main battlefield, we don't need to send too many troops; you only need to send 30,000."

Upon hearing this, everyone on the city wall fell silent.

Lin Dong stared wide-eyed at Lin Ye, thinking to himself:

Is this kid crazy? They have 50,000 men on the other side, and you want us to send 30,000? Isn't that just sending us to our deaths?

Xiao Zhan also frowned, staring at Lin Ye, completely disbelieving.

"Captain Lin, is this really okay?" Xiao Zhan asked.

He doesn't lack those 30,000 troops; he has 80,000 men at his disposal.

He just felt that fighting outnumbered was too risky.

Xiao Zhan thought to himself: This kid was really amazing yesterday, he killed Zhao Gang in one move.

But that was a sneak attack. Now the enemy has 50,000 men in formation. You want me to send 30,000 men to hold them off? If we can't hold them off, and the defenses break through, the entire Tiandou army will be wiped out.

I cannot risk the fate of the Heavenly Dou Empire to play games with you.

Lin Ye noticed Xiao Zhan's concerns. He smiled, stepped forward, and patted Xiao Zhan on the shoulder.

"Grand Marshal, I understand your concerns," Lin Ye said.

"Don't worry, the 30,000 men on the front are just a decoy to draw the enemy's attention. The rest will be handled by the elite strike force."

Xiao Zhan looked at Lin Ye's hand, then at Lin Ye's face.

"The elite sniper battalion?" Xiao Zhan asked.

"The elite strike force only has one hundred men. What are you sending them to do?"

"The elite troops are all very powerful Soul Masters, so naturally they kill people," Lin Ye answered decisively.

Xiao Zhan's heart sank. One hundred men to kill fifty thousand? That was simply a fantasy.

Lin Ye turned around and said to Lin Dong, "Go and call Li Ze over here."

Lin Dong glanced at Xiao Zhan, and Xiao Zhan nodded.

Lin Dong quickly ran down the city wall.

Not long after, Li Ze led one hundred Soul Masters from the Sharp Knife Battalion to the foot of the city wall.

Li Ze was feeling very uneasy.

He had witnessed Lin Ye's power yesterday, and he both feared and respected this new boss.

Lin Ye stood on the city wall, looking down at Li Ze.

"Li Ze," Lin Ye called out.

"Your subordinate is here!" Li Ze quickly responded loudly.

"Divide those hundred men into two teams and attack from both flanks," Lin Ye ordered.

Li Ze was stunned; he wondered if he had misheard.

"Captain," Li Ze swallowed.

"You mean, we, these hundred men, should split into two teams and attack the flank of the enemy's fifty thousand men?"

Li Ze mentally screamed: "Isn't this just sending us to our deaths? Fifty men against twenty-five thousand? We'd be wiped out if each of them spat on us! Is this new captain out of his mind?"

Lin Ye looked at Li Ze, his eyes turning cold.

"What? You don't understand my orders?" Lin Ye asked.

Li Ze was startled and quickly lowered his head:

"I understand! But..."

"No buts," Lin Ye interrupted him.

"Your mission is to flank from the side and create chaos! Kill as many as you can, and run when you can't kill anymore. Understand?"

Li Ze gritted his teeth; he knew he couldn't talk back now.

"I understand!" Li Ze shouted.

Lin Ye nodded in satisfaction, then turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing, who had remained silent.

"Big kitty, let's go!" Lin Ye said.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded, not asking any further questions. She knew what Lin Ye was going to do.

Looking at the two of them, Xiao Zhan felt completely uncertain.

"Where are you going?" Xiao Zhan asked.

Lin Ye turned around and glanced at Xiao Zhan, smiling happily.

"Let's go to the other side and teach them a lesson." After saying that, Lin Ye jumped off the city wall.

Zhu Zhuqing followed closely behind and jumped down as well.

Xiao Zhan quickly leaned over the city wall to look.

He saw Lin Ye and Zhu Zhuqing land on the ground, and then a blinding light shone from Zhu Zhuqing's left leg.

Below the city wall, Li Ze watched Lin Ye and Zhu Zhuqing jump down, and his heart pounded with even more panic.

He turned his head and looked at the hundred brothers from the elite cavalry behind him.

These guys, who usually act all high and mighty, are now completely dumbfounded.

"Captain, are we really going to attack the flank?" A Soul Emperor leaned over and asked in a low voice.

Li Ze glared at him: "Nonsense! Military orders are absolute. Do you want to be court-martialed?"

The Soul Emperor said with a bitter face, "But there are fifty thousand people on the other side! What use would it be if we, with only a hundred men, charged in, no matter how strong we are?"

Li Ze was also bitter, but he knew that Lin Ye's strength yesterday was terrifying.

If they disobeyed orders, Lin Ye would definitely kill them first.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Li Ze shouted.

"Everyone, listen up! Split into two teams! Team one, follow me to the left; team two, follow the vice-captain to the right! Remember the captain's words: go in and create chaos; if you can't win, run! Don't fight to the death!"

One hundred Soul Masters quickly split into two teams.

They were all veterans, and although they were afraid, they didn't slow down at all.

Li Ze drew his long sword from his waist and roared, "Brothers, let's fight them! Charge!"

The two groups of men moved towards the left and right flanks of the Xingluo army respectively.

On the city wall, Xiao Zhan watched the Sharp Knife Battalion set off, his heart filled with unease.

He turned to Lin Dong and said:

"Go, pass down the order: deploy 30,000 infantrymen out of the city and form a battle line in the front. Remember, defend only, do not launch an attack. Without my order, no one is allowed to retreat an inch!"

Lin Dong then accepted the order and left.

Xiao Zhan turned his gaze down the city wall again, wanting to see what Lin Ye and Zhu Zhuqing were up to.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing's left leg soul bone skill had been fully activated.

The skill of the left leg bone, which has been around for 60,000 years, is the Netherworld Thousand Shadow Step.

Zhu Zhuqing grabbed Lin Ye's wrist decisively.

Lin Ye grasped Zhu Zhuqing's hand in return.

"Are you ready, big kitty?" Lin Ye asked.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't speak, she just nodded.

The next second, the two figures vanished from their spot.

Xiao Zhan, standing on the city wall, rubbed his eyes. He hadn't seen how the two people had died at all.

"Where is he?" Xiao Zhan asked the shadowy figure beside him.

Phantom was also completely bewildered. She was an agility-based Soul Emperor, and was most sensitive to speed.

But she didn't even see a fleeting afterimage.

"Grand Marshal, it seems... they've teleported again," Phantom said.
