Chapter 210: Chapter 210: The Small Path Played a Big Role

Walking along the mountain road, several Nobles surrounded by guards felt impatient.

"This road is really difficult to navigate. Who thought it was a good idea to defend such a place?"

"Maybe they chose this place exactly because the road is hard to travel. Who would willingly come here?"

"I think we should just go back. That kid is definitely going to die resisting the Undead Army. Let’s just say he’s already dead."

But someone nearby disagreed, "Regardless, we’ve been ordered to check this out. How can we go back without seeing for ourselves? That would be like falsifying military information."

"Alright, I get it, you come from a military background. You don’t have to take it so seriously."

Turning around, this individual then said to Erminuo ahead, "I say, you were quite familiar with that kid, you must know something. Do you think he’s dead?"

Erminuo grew tired, initially, they had all retreated.

They only came back because of their connections, so Erminuo was assigned to this team, as familiar faces make communication easier, a sentiment everyone agrees with.

Showing impatience, Erminuo responded, "How would I know? Let’s just go and see, I wasn’t that close to him."

Unable to do much else, watching Jia Siwei gradually gaining recognition though recklessly risking his life, but he was indeed fighting on the front line. As Jia Siwei performed better, those who had retreated were looked down upon more and more.

Perhaps others in this position might have retreated too, but they were not the ones making these decisions.

Humans always like to sit high and look down on others, then evaluate them from their lofty positions.

"Look quickly, there’s something moving over there, could it be the Undead?"

"No, if it were the Undead, there wouldn’t be a lack of bones on the ground. I see clearly now, those are Iron Puppets, they’re still defending." The Noble Young Master with a military background brightened.

What they admired most were those who knew they were marching to certain death but did it anyway.

With horses spurred on, they soon reached the area above. What they saw was a landscape of devastation – Iron Puppet fragments everywhere, a large part of which had been thrown down the cliff.

Reaching this open area from behind involved crossing a cliff, a challenging path.

The passage ahead was even narrower, flanked by mountains and dense forests. Speaking of which, their position for defense turned out to be better than their own. At this moment, they saw those people still fighting against the forces on the other side.

They might have looked extremely ragged, almost like beggars, but this scene deeply impressed them.

"Good for them, they’re still holding on. Since the enemy hasn’t attacked this side, it’s very possible they haven’t noticed the issue with this route. After all, the Undead can’t manage every little detail."

Hearing the news, the squad commander happily slammed the table.

"Send people through the small path, a fifth of them, and later attack from inside and out. We’ll take down the six cities along the way."

The commander issued the order, and no one dared delay. Hence, a fifth of them cautiously moved along the small path, which wasn’t easy, but beyond it lay flat terrain.

All the Fortress checkpoints along this route could be bypassed, making it easy to attack the enemy’s rear.

If it were only the Undead as the enemy, that might be one thing. But now, among the enemy were many Humans, and cutting off their supply lines had a major impact.

After all this time, the Skeleton Flying Dragons they had hired were down to just a dozen or so.

The others had died in the war, though two had broken through to the Elite Level.

These two were quietly replaced by Fang Jie; the rest who hadn’t broken through stayed here – if they couldn’t break through, they might as well go and die. Fang Jie could see, this was precisely the Blue Sand Kingdom’s intention.

"I never thought you could actually manage this, I truly envy you."

Duojia watched the freshly cleaned-up Jia Siwei, whose military force this time exceeded their imagination, but the huge losses were also hard to bear.

Such losses, even for these frontier Nobles, were painfully felt.

Still, a businessman had managed to bring forth resources, crucially willing to gamble with his own life. Now that he had succeeded, fame and fortune followed.

"It’s just luck, nothing more. After all, I was only doing what I had to."

Other Nobles felt a sour twinge, especially those who had previously struggled alongside him. If they had stayed, their names would be part of this glory now.

Indeed, it was glory; what Jia Siwei had achieved could no longer dim his brilliance.

Previously, his achievements were limited due to his background, which was normal.

But now it was different. Jia Siwei’s contributions were significant, and he had even caught the attention of the higher-ups. The Royal Family planned to elevate Jia Siwei as a beacon, rendering his background irrelevant.

One could imagine, after this battle, Jia Siwei, a man of colossal merit, was assuredly on a meteoric rise.

What mattered now was how much this route would contribute to the upcoming battles.

However, with an overwhelming force arriving almost unimpeded at the enemy’s rear, the outcome was already determined.

Jia Siwei led the charge, clearing the road with his Puppets, smashing all Skeletons, and advancing with his troops. Once the troops were assembled in the rear, his role was essentially over.

The assembled army launched an attack and cut off the rear.

The people of Blue Sand Kingdom had not expected, in the midst of New Moon Kingdom’s fierce counterattack, that such a potent force would strike from behind. Caught off-guard, they lost a Fortress.

This Fortress was also their logistics base; all the supplies were seized and transported through the small path to the other side. Due to this loss, the frontline Blue Sand Kingdom’s forces became unstable.

Their instability meant their high-end combat power was unreliable. After the last two Skeleton Flying Dragons were eliminated here, the frontline inevitably collapsed. As quickly as they had advanced, now they retreated swiftly.

Discovering the issue here, the strong forces of Blue Sand Kingdom rushed to support, but they encountered the Skeleton Gryphon Knights.

Upon meeting, the confrontation was instantaneous, no superfluous words spoken, they fought on the spot.
