<h4>Chapter 1727: Chapter 1728: Sessfully Breaking into Luang Feng Mountain</h4>


    "Start the attack." At exactly eight o’clock, the Commander finally gave the order, speaking this word that drove people crazy.


    As his voice fell, the deafening sound of artillery fire erupted in the distance.


    A flurry of shells and missiles wereunched towards Luang Feng Mountain, lighting up the distant sky.


    Although the mountain was hundreds of miles from the city, the sounds of warfare were still distinct within the city.


    In the surrounding towns, most people stood by their windows or on the streets, looking in the direction of Luang Feng Mountain.


    They didn’t know what was happening over there, but judging by the intensity of the artillery, it was not a trivial matter.


    Some reporters hurriedly prepared their equipment and headed that way.


    Previously, they hadn’t noticed any signs, and with the current ceasefire between Ba and Yi, the conflict hadn’t escted to such arge-scale battle.


    Since it wasn’t an invasion by foreign enemies, it only indicated one thing: an internal war in the small Ba region.


    The locals, though surprised, were not panicked. Most of them, after taking a look, returned to their normal lives.


    Some went back to watching TV, others continued working overtime.


    They were used to it by now. They wouldn’t be rmed or curious enough to go and take a closer look.


    If this happened in China, it might cause widespread panic.


    At the Central Command at this time, the Commander was intently watching therge screen in front of him.


    Here, information ryed from satellites broadly disyed the situation at Luang Feng Mountain.


    Many people surrounded him, wearing headsets, their eyes fixed on their screens, analyzing various data.


    Also gathered around the Commander were several seniormanding officers.


    "Commander, it would take us 25 minutes topletely bombard the surface of Luang Feng Mountain at this rate, and afterward, the mountain will be in utter ruins. Within ten meters beneath the surface..."


    One person exined the effects of the bombardment to the Commander.


    After he finished, another person discussed the next steps.


    "The first target has been sessfully bombarded. ording to satellite feedback, we have achieved our expected goals." A staff member wearing a headset reported.


    "Begin the bombardment of the second target now."


    Everyone in themand center wore a look of seriousness.


    This was technological warfare; every order issued and every decision made could determine mission sess or failure.


    "Sessfully infiltrated the enemy’s electronic system." Someone reported.


    "Virus has been sessfully imnted."


    Hearing the reports from around, the Commander’s face finally began to rx.


    The war was developing step by step as they had anticipated, and surprisingly smoothly.


    Not far from Luang Feng Mountain, in a hidden spot, Xiang Yu and his group were huddled together somewhat disheveled.


    Tie Zhuzi angrily said, "Damn it, who would’ve thought the **** would be so insane, throwing shells everywhere as if they didn’t cost money."


    Originally, Xiang Yu and his men nned to hide in Luang Feng Mountain and observe the situation, but the ****unched a full mountain bombardment.


    Luckily, he and his brothers fled quickly; otherwise, this barrage would’ve wiped them out before it could take out the rebels.


    "Let’s go up and take a look now," Xiang Yu said, and began moving upward.


    "Brother Yu, I suggest we wait a bit. If theyunch another round of bombing, we might all get caught in it." Tie Zhuzi proposed.


    The previous explosions had nearly deafened him, the artillery sting close enough that his ears were still ringing.


    "There shouldn’t be a second round of bombing. It should be safe for us to climb up now," Xiang Yu said and started walking again.


    The Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps brothers followed him upslope.


    The first team was fine, having followed Xiang Yu through various risks and participated in numerous battles.


    The second team, though trained, had never experienced a real artillery encirclement like this.


    Some were so anxious their legs nearly gave out.


    Ren Qing, who was leading the second team, also secretly marveled at the scene.


    Being on the brink of life and death was something he felt he could only truly understand by being here himself.


    "Don’t be afraid, brothers. We are safe now." Ren Qing encouraged.


    Seeing Xiang Yu charging ahead, others were inspired and quickly followed suit.


    The mountain was barren now, full of craters. The trees had been sted to pieces in the explosions, and the air smelled burnt.


    "Be careful, don’t make any noise," Wu Jing said softly at the front.


    Though the bombardment had shattered the mountain, it provided them with numerous natural covers.


    Positioned on the outskirts of Luang Feng Mountain, they weren’t at any strategic high point, making them overlooked by both the **** and the rebels, thus ensuring their safety.


    Xiang Yu and his team merely came to observe, with the site offering an excellent vantage point.


    After the **** finished their bombardment, a vanguard unit wielding light weapons charged inward.


    Rain poured down harder, as if the sky had opened up, releasing torrents of water.


    This affected manymunications devices, as their wireless headsets became unusable after getting wet.


    It was a crucial test for them.


    Fortunately, these people were well-trained and did not panic, following the n to sprint inward.


    This vanguard force was like a sharp de slicing directly into the heart of Luang Feng Mountain.


    As they charged forward, they encountered resistance on the roads, but swiftly and urately overcame it.


    They entered Luang Feng Mountain smoothly, almost unbelievably so.


    The squadmander continuously reported their status with a waterproof phone. Based on the feedback from each squad, all was proceeding well.


    Keru, in hismand room, also received reports from the ground.


    "What, the resistance inside is weak?" Keru said, incredulous.


    "Indeed, we also met with blocking forces, but they were too weak, and under our main force, they were easily wiped out," said someone, their voice tinged with excitement.


    "Understood," Keru said, his tone somewhat dejected.


    Having been away from the rebel army for so many years, he knew they had been developing, but he hadn’t expected them to be so weak.


    Keru seemed dazed, sitting in hismand room, as numerous officers around him were puzzled. Despite the overwhelmingly good situation, their Commander seemed unexpectedly downcast.


    At this moment, the Commander called.


    "Commander, what are your instructions?" Keru promptly stood up and asked...
