Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 524 A Born Commander (Daily Ten Thousand Words)

At this moment, it was already visible that the enemy troops on the periphery were rapidly converging on this side, and they would appear in front of everyone within a quarter of an hour at most.

Huo Yuhao glanced at the other person, his eyes now devoid of any emotion: "Since you can't defend it, then go and die now. I'm not stopping you."

The man was immediately rendered speechless by Huo Yuhao's words.

"Where do you think this is? This is a battlefield. Those who are afraid of death will not survive. From now on, your squad will be divided into two groups. One group will hold off the enemy and slow down their advance, while the other group will quickly recover their soul power."

"You know that others will use you as targets, so you should aim at the enemy's firing positions, quickly calculate the firing data, and fire at them head-on, so they don't have a chance to look up, instead of telling me that we can't hold the line."

"It's not necessary for everyone to stick to the 'ridgeline' position. Attacking from high to low is disadvantageous for you. The enemy's Soul Master squad didn't split up to attack the reverse slope."

"If you can't crack this bone, you'll die. If you don't want to die, then risk your lives to keep pushing forward. Every time, someone has to brave the gunfire and charge up the 'ridgeline' to report on the situation of the Soul Master squad. Only in this way can we have a chance to win."

"As for that Soul Saint..."

A flash of silver light appeared on Huo Yuhao's back, and the Wind Mantis Giant Shadow Slash had already appeared on Huo Yuhao's spine.

"I'll go and meet him. Teacher Xuan will cooperate with you to prioritize eliminating the Soul Master squad. I can at least stall until Teacher Xuan has dealt with that Soul Master squad and comes to support me."

Huo Yuhao's tactical plan was so clear that everyone, including Ju Zi, almost instinctively wanted to follow his instructions. But they immediately realized, "Who the hell is this guy?!"

"Let Yuhao make all the preparations."

Orange Shell gently bit her lip and gave the command.

"Remember, no matter how many people die, the observation points on the ridgeline cannot be lost. Be prepared for a ridgeline offensive and defensive battle. Once the ridgeline is lost, you will really be close to death."

"Before the enemy gets up here, quickly start building reverse slope positions and ridgeline observation points! What are you waiting for?!"

Huo Yuhao looked at the others who were still standing there, and his voice became colder.

The group immediately dispersed and rushed toward the hilltop that Huo Yuhao had pointed out.

Orange's expression was somewhat complicated. As she led the team towards the hilltop, her mind was filled with the image of Huo Yuhao strategizing and deploying tactics right from the start.

"Go attack the reverse slope, hold the observation point, and prepare for a ridgeline offensive and defensive battle. I'll hold off that Soul Saint!"

Even though Huo Yuhao's voice was cold and stern, the youthful spirit and arrogance that were unique to him could not be concealed in his tone.

In just a few words, Ju Zi knew that the other party was a true strategist, while she was at most a general.

She understands tactics but not strategy; she knows how to command her subordinates but doesn't know how to ignite the passion within them.

Huo Yuhao, despite being a newcomer and even giving her soldiers a dressing down, managed to make everyone understand their predicament with just a few words.

No calamity is greater than underestimating the enemy; underestimating the enemy has nearly cost us our treasures. Therefore, in a conflict between armies, the one who grieves will prevail.

Only by throwing everyone into a situation where they have no choice but to fight to the death can they become a "desperate army," telling them to "abandon illusions and prepare for battle."

Immediately afterwards, Huo Yuhao arranged detailed tactics, giving them hope of survival in a desperate situation. Finally, Huo Yuhao personally led the charge to face the Soul Saint-level opponent, which boosted the team's remaining morale to its peak.

In war, courage is paramount. One must strike with full force at the first drumbeat, for the second weakens, and the third exhausts. When the enemy is exhausted and we are at our peak, we can defeat them.

If they can withstand the enemy's fiercest first wave of attacks, this remnant force will truly have a chance to win. With the balance of power shifting, the scales of victory will slowly tip in their favor.

He's simply a born handsome man.

She could understand Huo Yuhao's plan, but that was all she could do. She couldn't possibly integrate those principles into her own command so easily and seamlessly in just a few seconds.

There was shock and fear in Ju Zi's eyes. She dared not imagine how miserable she would be if she faced such an opponent one day. But at this moment, Huo Yuhao's confident figure with his golden eyes and black hair was deeply imprinted in Ju Zi's heart.

The opponent's war talent and military skills were even better and more terrifying than those of the battle-hardened White Tiger Grand Duke of the Star Luo Empire.

"Teacher Xuan, you should go too. Please clear the way for me."

Huo Yuhao turned to look at Xuan Ziwen, who was already fully armed. Perhaps he was not good at dealing with that Soul Saint, but in any case, the other party was a genuine level eight Soul Master, whose lethality on the battlefield was absolutely terrifying.

"Yuhao, your teacher owes you a huge favor."

Xuan Ziwen wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed and followed Ju Zi and the others to the high ground.

Huo Yuhao turned his head and looked at the army that was surging up like a tide not far away. His originally calm heart skipped a beat.

Even when the Imperial Army launched a massive invasion of Ashina, Huo Yuhao had never seen so many people at once. Strictly speaking, this was the first time Huo Yuhao had personally participated in a war since returning to Douluo Continent.

"My blood is boiling!"

Huo Yuhao muttered something to himself, then his figure flashed and he charged towards the army in front of him. His eyes were surprisingly calm, even somewhat cold.

Huo Yuhao's figure suddenly rushed out like an arrow released from a bow, like an eagle soaring in the sky, and almost instantly took advantage of the terrain to swoop down in front of his opponent.

Twisted ripples spread out from Huo Yuhao's forehead in an instant. Huo Yuhao selected hundreds of targets in a split second, and the mental shock spread out. The mental strength of these ordinary people ensured that even if Huo Yuhao only made a slight move, he could directly shake their sea of ​​consciousness and make them faint.

Seeing Huo Yuhao charging towards them, the Soul Masters, who were heavily protected in the middle of the group, were clearly unprepared. However, they still launched a fierce attack on Huo Yuhao, with hundreds of various Soul Guidance Cannonballs flying up from the formation and accurately aimed at him.

In response, Huo Yuhao smiled and a series of dark red rays shot out from the tips of the four mechanical tentacles behind him, accurately hitting the shells and detonating them in mid-air.

Xuan Ziwen, who was still connected to Huo Yuhao's mental detection, almost gasped when he saw this scene. What an amazing anti-aircraft soul tool this was! Judging from Huo Yuhao's expression, he could tell that accurately intercepting these hundreds of soul-guided cannonballs was almost effortless for him.
