Burning the Camp
Milan's troops did not encounter much resistance along the way, and the army successfully approached Mordoval.
Mordoval was a military town located at the eastern foot of the Cambis Mountains. It covered an area of about 970 square kilometers and was about 1,200 meters above sea level. It was located between the tropics and the subtropics. The climate was hot all year round and there was little rain. The 985th Ape Army was stationed here, and the leader of the apes was the commander of the 985th Army, Gate. It was a complete executioner. Countless creatures had died under its hands. It was bloodthirsty and arrogant. It always thought that it was invincible and that it was the boss. In Mordoval, it was simply a local emperor. It did not go back on its word. It lorded over others all day long, indulging in extravagance and debauchery. This guy's ability was mediocre, but he was arrogant. The US army was just a motley crew. They were nothing to be afraid of. With his army of more than a million, not even a bird could fly past here, let alone the US army. It was fine if the US army did not come, but if they did, they would not be able to return. It didn't believe that the American army was strong. It wanted to compete with the American army. It didn't think that it was overestimating its own strength, because it had three brave generals under it that it was proud of. They were its son, Wumingfei, its nephew, Wokate, and Murphy, whom it had personally promoted.
Murphy and Wokate were both Gate's proud assistants, skilled in martial arts, brave, and resourceful. In terms of martial arts, no one could compare to Wu Mingfei. This child was born with divine strength. Lifting a thousand jin copper head was like child's play. A thick iron rod was like a tiger's breath. He had been taught by a famous teacher since he was young, and he was like a nobody in the army. However, his brain was a little that way. His IQ was at most ten years old. He never communicated with others and did not even listen to his father. He only listened to his mother's words and was close to his mother since he was young. He followed his mother's words and ignored others. That silly playboy had a particularly bad temper. It was a chatterbox, so no one dared to go near it, let alone provoke it. Its mother was afraid that it would go out and cause trouble, so she simply brought it by her side and did not leave it at all.
The American army was pressing down on the border. Gate said it was tough, but the war situation in recent years had also made him nervous. After all, the American army was coming aggressively. It would be a lie to say that there was no pressure. Therefore, Gate had no choice but to look for his wife.
"Madam, the American soldiers are attacking, and the situation is very tight. I was wondering if I could let my son take action. I won't listen to anyone else, but I'll listen to you. As long as you agree, I'll definitely have no objections. As long as my son takes action, I'll definitely defeat the American soldiers. This is also the glory of our family, and it's also because Madam has taught my son well.”Gate said with a smile.
"Don't flatter me. Don't you have many powerful generals under you? Why didn't he send them? Why did he send his son? My son is my flesh and blood. If anything happens to him, how can I live in the future? No, you'd better find someone else!”Obviously, the mother was eager to protect her son and would never agree.
"Madam, it's not that I'm forcing you, it's just that the situation has forced me. You also know that my subordinates are all good-for-nothings. They can still act as a facade, but when it comes to serious matters, who can compare to my son? My son is also my flesh and blood. But then again, if the enemy breaks through the city, our many years of operations will be destroyed. In the vast world, where will we be able to settle down? Furen, please reconsider."
"Sigh! How could I not know what you said, but I just couldn't bear to part with it. Tell me, my son has never left me, and now he's going to war. Swords have no eyes, so how can I be at ease?”
"Madam, you're worrying too much. Aren't I here? I'll protect our son well. Don't worry, Madam!”Gate said a whole bunch of nice things and almost knelt down.
"Then ask your son if he's willing?”
Gate turned to Wu Mingfei and asked,"Son, Father will take you to war. Are you willing?"”
Upon hearing the word war, Wu Mingfei perked up. Although it was a moron, it did have a special liking for playing with guns and sticks. It always wanted to spar with others, but its mother refused to let it, and it had long been suffocated.
"War? Was it a martial arts competition? But no one wants to fight me? Stay far away from me. I'm not going." Wu Mingfei muttered.
"Son, there are many people fighting with you this time.”
"What? Was that so? Then I'll go! When?"
Gate's wife interrupted them. "Son, you can go, but you must listen to your mother. If you don't listen, then don't go.”
When Wu Mingfei heard that he was not allowed to go, he quickly said to his mother,"Mom, I'll listen to you. As long as you let me go, I'll do whatever you say.”
"Alright, son. Let me tell you." As the mother told her son this and that, Wu Mingfei nodded vigorously.
Milan led the troops to camp outside the city. The next day, they went out of the city to call for battle.
Gate led the army out of the city to fight, and the two armies lined up.
Milan walked out of the formation. "The apes on the other side, listen up. I'm the commander of the American army. I've been ordered to attack you. I advise you not to resist needlessly and surrender quickly. Otherwise, the mighty might of the heavens will wipe out everything.”
Gate was so angry that his nose was crooked. "Wu Mingfei, go and teach this arrogant girl a lesson!”
Milan saw that there was no movement and shouted,"Is there anyone who is not afraid of death? Come out, don't be a coward!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a general walked out from the enemy formation. He was short and skinny, holding a steel rod in his hand. His eyes were dull as he walked and swayed. He looked like a fool.
When Wu Mingfei approached him, Milan Gao Sheng and Wen: "Who are you? Report your name!"
Wu Mingfei didn't make a sound either. He continued to fiddle with his iron rod.
"Why aren't you speaking? Are you afraid?”
There was still no answer.
"Come and give me your name! This general's subordinates did not die nameless souls!”Milan was furious.
It was still the same, Wu Mingfei did not even lift his eyelids.
"Oh, so you're a mute. Give me someone who can talk!”
"You're the mute!"
"Haha! He knew how to talk! I thought I met a mute? Why didn't you answer my question just now?”
Wu Mingfei stopped talking and continued to play with his iron rod.
Milan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How did she meet such a fool? "I beg you, can you talk to me?”
Wu Mingfei finally raised his head and said in a muffled voice,"My mom told me not to talk to strangers or tell it my name.”
"Then can you tell me how old you are this year?”Milan's question seemed helpless.
"My mom said that she won't tell anyone. There are too many bad people nowadays. It's terrible to be cheated!”
"Then which unit do you belong to?”
"My mom didn't tell me that, but I don't know. My dad never told me.”
Milan almost laughed out loud. She was a complete idiot.
"Didn't your mom tell you how to fight? The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. I don't believe that your mother can take care of everything.”
"My mother said not to talk to others when we are in front of the battle. They will lie to me. My mother also said that if you see an enemy, fight if you can beat them.”Wu Mingfei shook his head as he recited his mother's words.
"Then do you think I'm powerful?" Milan asked jokingly.
"I don't know. You'll only know after you fight. Hurry up and fight me. It's time to eat in a while.”
Not only was he an idiot, but he was also a good-for-nothing.
"I'm very powerful. You can't beat me, so why aren't you running? Have you forgotten what your mother told you?”
"We haven't even fought yet. How do you know that I can't beat you?”
"Is there a need to say that? I've eaten, but you haven't. Tell me, can you beat me?”
"Yes! What you said makes sense!"
"Then run!" Milan was laughing so hard that her stomach was about to explode.
"Oh!" Wu Mingfei agreed and turned to run.
Milan was stunned for a moment, but it was too late to chase after him. Milan had fallen in love with Wu Mingfei because he had a younger brother who also had some problems with his IQ. He was quite similar to Wu Mingfei. Milan usually loved his younger brother the most and would not let others bully him. Today, when he saw Wu Mingfei, he really wanted to see his younger brother. He was especially happy. His younger brother was in the army. If he could meet Wu Mingfei, they might even become good friends!
Wu Mingfei's sudden escape also left Gate completely confused. Murphy volunteered to fight, and Gate nodded in agreement.
Murphy rushed to the front of the formation, his mouth dirty. "You stinky girl, don't be so arrogant. Let's see how Grandpa will teach you a lesson. I'll let you know how thick the sky is.”
Milan was about to fly into a rage and charge forward with her sword when a loud shout came from the formation,"Marshal, wait a moment. Let me meet it.”
It was Griffin. Milan said,""General, be careful!"
Griffin replied," Marshal, please rest assured. I will not fail my mission. Please return first."”
Milan glared at Murphy and turned back to the team.
"A nameless rat dares to clamor with my marshal. I think you are tired of living. Today, grandpa will fulfill your wish and send you back to your hometown.”Griffin scolded Murphy.
"Bah! What kind of ability is a verbal argument? Let's see the real deal!”Murphy wasn't willing to be outdone.
After a few words, the two sides started fighting. After a few moves, the difference in strength was clear. Murphy was no match for Griffin, and he was gradually losing. He tried to escape several times, but Griffin was unwilling to let him go. Each move was fiercer than the last, and each move was more powerful than the last. Murphy was already at the end of his rope, unable to fight back. He was sweating all over and panting. Murphy didn't have time to dodge Griffin's " Splitting Mountain of Power." He closed his eyes and waited for his death. Griffin raised his knife and slashed Murphy into two. His body fell to the ground with a " plop " and blood flowed all over the ground. He had reported to the King of Hell. Seeing this, Wokate rushed out of the camp and fought Griffin. The battle was earth-shattering. It was truly a match made in heaven. Both sides fought for nearly a hundred rounds, but there was still no winner.
Milan was calm. She knew Griffin's strength. Gate, on the other hand, was afraid that his nephew would be at a disadvantage, so he quickly ordered the retreat. Wokate took the opportunity to withdraw from the battle, and Griffin did not chase after him. Both sides returned to their respective camps.
The next day, Milan led the army to fight again. There was no response from the city, and it was dead silent. Milan felt that something was wrong and ordered the siege. The army swarmed forward and did not encounter any resistance. Mordoval was already an empty city.
As it turned out, when Milan's army was at the city gates, Gate knew the power of the US army and had already left a hand behind to ask for help from Betelu, who was 500 kilometers away. The one guarding Betelu was its uncle, Collins, a cunning ape. Today's unfavorable situation prompted Gate to follow his uncle's plan. He gave up on Mordoval and let the American troops into the city. Then, he surrounded the American troops and trapped them in Mordoval. At first, Vokate didn't agree with his uncle's actions, but he couldn't go against his orders. Thus, that night, Gate ordered his troops to quietly leave the city and head towards Betelu. Halfway there, they met Colin's army.
After Milan entered the city, before he could sit down, the soldiers reported that a large number of ape troops were found outside the city. Milan's enemy situation was unknown, so he ordered the troops to strictly defend and not to go out to war rashly.
The apes only surrounded him and did not attack. The weather in August was extremely hot. The temperature reached more than 40 degrees, as if it was on fire. The soldiers in the city were looking for shade to avoid the heat. They were listless, and Milan was very anxious.
Outside the city, the apes were not much better. The soldiers were also uncomfortably hot and hid everywhere. Gate suggested to Collins," Uncle, the weather is too hot now. The soldiers are not in the mood to fight. They are like a pile of loose sand. If the US Army attacks now, we might not be able to resist.”
"Nephew, what do you think? Tell me." Collins didn't have any good ideas.
"Uncle, there is a forest about ten miles away from Mordoval. I believe you saw it when you came.”
"Yes, you mean we should retreat ten miles and set up camp in the forest?”
"Nephew has the same intention. Firstly, it can relieve the soldiers of their suffering from the heat and restore their combat strength. Secondly, even if there is any movement from the US army, we will know instantly. It will not be too late to fight again.”
"Although what you said makes sense, camping in the jungle is a taboo for military strategists. If the enemy attacks us with fire, we will be very passive.”Collins was a little worried.
" Uncle, you can be at ease about this. The US military is new here and is unfamiliar with the terrain. They will definitely not attack rashly. Our military strength is not any less than theirs. I'm sure the US military doesn't have such a big appetite. It's such a hot day. If we can't stand it even if we stay here for a long time, you can imagine their situation.”
"That's true, but I'm still a little worried. This concerns the fate of the army, so I can't be careless.”
"Uncle, don't hesitate anymore. Things will change if you delay. The army is already starting to lose its patience. If this continues, the number of non-combat casualties will increase greatly.”Gate said firmly.
"Alright then." Collins finally made up his mind.
Mordoval and Milan were very anxious. The army was trapped, and the weather was so hot. The soldiers 'combat effectiveness was limited, and they were in a dilemma. Milan had no idea. Pilnas advised his daughter to stay calm. The impetuousness of the commander would affect the entire army. If the morale of the army was scattered, it would only be a failure.
"Father, I understand what you said, but now…how long can we last?”
"Child, don't be anxious. There will be a way when the car comes to the mountain.”
The soldier reported,"The ape army retreated ten miles and set up camp in a forest. It stretches for dozens of miles."
"Camping in the jungle? Could it be that they can't take it anymore?" Milan felt relieved.
Piernas jumped up excitedly after hearing the report.""The heavens are helping me!"
Milan looked at her father in confusion. "Father, do you already have a way to defeat the enemy?”
"Haha! There was a saying in the art of war that camping in the jungle was taboo. The apes were asking for their own death.”
"Father, forgive me for being stupid and not understanding what you mean.”
"Silly child, the weather is dry now. Have you forgotten what we can do?”Pirnas looked at Milan with a smile.
"Oh! You mean…"
"Yes! Did he understand? Haha!"
Milan also smiled. The two of them smiled knowingly. Everything was under control.
In the evening, Milan ordered the elephant soldiers to wrap their hooves with cloth, and then led them in person to quietly approach the enemy camp under the cover of night.
The apes were still scheming and had let down their guard. The elephant soldiers surrounded the jungle. Under Milan's command, the elephant soldiers collectively sprayed flames. In an instant, the jungle was in a sea of fire.
The apes were stunned by this sudden attack. Fire broke out everywhere, and the soldiers ran around, burning countless people to death. Gate led the remaining troops to break out of the encirclement, but was blocked by Milan. He was no match for Milan, and he died in just one round.
With the flare as a signal, Pirnas led his troops to charge out. The apes were all defeated at this moment. They had no intention of fighting and only cared about running for their lives. Collins was captured alive, and the ape army suffered heavy casualties.
Wu Mingfei's mother had been burned to death, and he had lost his backbone. Wu Mingfei was crying and killing everyone he saw like a madman. He happened to run into Milan's younger brother, Pasque. The two fools fought each other for dozens of rounds without a winner. What a temper. Wu Mingfei had never fought so happily in so many years. One move after another, not only did they fight, but they also shouted.
Milan led the army to eliminate the remaining enemies and regrouped with Piernas.
"Father, where is my brother?"
Isn't it with you?" Pirnas was anxious. His son had a low IQ. How could he not be worried?
"No! I didn't see it."
The father and daughter split up and found Pasque on the grass outside the jungle. He was playing with Wu Mingfei.
"My name is Pasque. What about you?"
"My name is Wu Mingfei."
"Oh! Who do you always play with?" Pasque asked.
"Other than my mother, no one else played with me. Now that my mother is dead, no one else plays with me anymore.”As she spoke, she started crying.
For some reason, Pasque also started crying. "I'm the same as you. I don't have anyone to play with. Only my sister treats me the best. She gives me whatever I want. She plays with me whenever she has time and even gives me a lot of delicious food.”
"You're so good! I still have a sister, but I have nothing.”Wu Mingfei's mood was very low.
"Don't be afraid. I'll play with you. My sister will like you too.”
"Really? Don't lie to me, or I won't be with you anymore.”Wu Mingfei didn't quite believe it. He still felt a little impulsive.
"Why would I lie to you? Let's play together now, okay?”
"Good!" Wu Mingfei laughed.
Just now, he was brandishing his sword and gun, but now, he had become a good playmate. There was no need to mention how happy he was.
"…Two little bees…Pa…Flying among the flowers…Pa Pa, flying…Pa…Flying…Pa…You've lost, you've lost! Hahahaha!"
When they were happy, they rolled around in each other's arms and laughed. Milan couldn't help but laugh too. Her brother finally had a playmate and wouldn't be lonely anymore.
Milan led the army to attack Bertrand, while Vokate led the defeated soldiers to resist. Milan pulled out his bow and shot Vokate down from the city wall. The apes fled for their lives. Milan led the army to take Bertrand down effortlessly.
This victory greatly boosted the morale of the American soldiers, causing the apes to panic and surrender wherever they went. Some of the stubborn resistance was nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot, and they were wiped out.
Although Wumingfei and Pask had low intelligence, they were also good at fighting under Milan's training. The two of them cooperated with each other and were extremely powerful. They took the head of the general in the army as easily as taking it out of the bag. They became Milan's invincible trump card.
The American troops advanced with high morale and continued to win.
