The human frontline finally engaged with the heavy infantry of the allied ten thousand races. Both sides were elite heavy infantry, and for a time, the battle was fierce and evenly matched. All of the human energy cannons relentlessly bombarded the allied army.
Zhang Zhen and Lin Shanhe's left and right flanks also clashed with the two enemy armies. The entire battlefield transformed into a massive grinder, with figures falling every second.
Rommel intently observed the movements of the two armies, quietly muttering to himself, "Wait a little longer, wait a little longer."
Finally, when the Undead's Black Knights joined the fray, Rommel loudly shouted, "Quick, order all disguised masters to attack! The Black Knights will push straight in to expand our gains."
At the same time, Lin Zhan, in the human central command tent, roared, "All masters, reveal yourselves and engage! Stop the enemy masters. The Sixth Legion's heavy infantry will hold back the Black Knights and secure the defense line."
Lin Zhan finally saw the entire army of the allied ten thousand races moving into the battlefield on the large screen.
"Hahaha, I've finally been waiting for this! Order all air units to sortie, deploy all Type 3s into battle, target the central army of the allied ten thousand races."
"Order the cavalry on the left and right flanks to sortie, quickly assist Zhang Zhen's and Lin Shanhe's forces in clearing the enemy, and then we will strike at Rommel."
"Hahaha, this time I'll capture that cunning fox alive. If he doesn't pay dozens of thousands of Lord Crystals, I'll execute him."
He then said to Lin Yi and Lin Er, "Brothers, get ready, we're going back to our old business. A big deal is coming."
Jiang Zhongtian saw Lin Zhan above and quickly stopped him, saying, "Zhan'er, it's dangerous, don't be reckless."
Lin Zhan shook his head. "Grandpa Jiang, what's dangerous? We've won. I certainly can't let that cunning fox Rommel escape. I'll leave the command here to you. After clearing the engaged enemy forces, quickly consolidate our defenses. The enemy's reinforcements should be arriving soon, and I plan to eliminate those reinforcements too."
Jiang Zhongtian was stunned, then hastily asked, "Zhan'er, are you sure the ten thousand races will have reinforcements?"
Lin Zhan nodded. "Certainly, definitely, and without a doubt. You just watch the home front, and please don't stop me. Don't forget my surname is Lin. No one in our Lin family is afraid of a fight."
Without waiting for Jiang Zhongtian's reaction, he quickly led Lin Yi and Lin Er out, heading towards the guard knight regiments of the three major legions.
On the other side, Rommel, seeing that the allied ten thousand races had fully entered the battlefield, also happily said, "All elite knight regiments, sortie! Follow me to decapitate the human commander. I want to see who the wretched soul is who's been laying mines and setting out dogs! We must capture the human commander alive. I'll extort the mine-making methods from the humans."
Lin Zhan also arrived before the guard knight regiments of the three major legions and said, "Brave warriors of the human race, I am the commander of this human campaign. I don't want to rely on my authority, so let me first get acquainted with you."
"Brothers of the Xun Feng Legion, I am Ouyang Chengshan's grandson, the eldest son of Lin Shanhe and Ouyang Xinlan, Lin Zhan. Some of the older uncles might know me, right? I'm not an outsider in the Xun Feng Legion." Lin Zhan said to the soldiers of the Xun Feng Knight Regiment.
"Hahaha, Young Master Lin, you jest. You are indeed our Xun Feng Legion's true young master. We are all family!" the soldiers of the Xun Feng Knight Regiment laughed heartily, especially a few veteran generals who were close to Lin Shanhe and started joking.
"Haha, nephew, this is a good fight, better than your two uncles."
Then Lin Zhan turned to the Zhen Lei Legion. "The Xun Feng Legion is my maternal side, but the Zhen Lei Legion is my own family, isn't it? The previous Legion Marshal Lin Tian was my grandfather, and the current Marshal Zhang Zhen is my father-in-law. Coming to the Zhen Lei Legion is like coming home."
"Hahaha, that's for sure! Welcome home, young master. Whatever you say, we'll do. Our old General Lin Tian's subordinates are still here. Tell Uncle if you need anything."
"That's right, nephew, when will you have a wedding? We uncles must attend to have a drink of wedding wine!"
Lin Zhan knew that the Zhen Lei Legion was founded by his grandfather Lin Tian. After Lin Tian died in battle, Lin Shanhe, not yet a Lord, handed it over to Zhang Zhen.
"Then it's settled. With all you uncles here, I won't waste any more words, nephew."
Lin Zhan looked at the guard knight regiment of the Sixth Army Group. Before he could speak, the leading general of the guard knight regiment said, "Young Master Lin, just give us your orders. Although we're not as close to you as the Xun Feng and Zhen Lei Legions, you've fought brilliantly and angered that bastard Rommel immensely. We'll do whatever you say. Besides, our young master is eating under your command."
Lin Zhan chuckled. "Then it's settled. We're all family. I'm going to strike at Rommel. Later, our human air force will airdrop special aerial bombs, and the campaign will end with our human victory."
"That cunning fox Rommel is a big fish. Whether we ransom him for a price or kill him as a sacrifice, both are good options. Moreover, this is my first large-scale command, and I want to end it with a perfect flourish."
"Young Master, is what you say true? Can our human race truly achieve a great victory this time?" the Zhen Lei Knight Regiment general asked excitedly.
"We must! Let's head to the human frontline first. Then we'll charge out from the left or right flank, depending on which of my father-in-law or father finishes their fight first."
"It's good that we can win. Our Zhen Lei Legion has a blood feud with Rommel. We've suffered greatly at his hands over the years." In recent years, the Zhen Lei Legion had suffered more defeats than victories against Rommel and had paid a heavy price. This was unavoidable, as Zhang Zhen was not as cunning as Rommel.
"Uncles, rest assured, this time we will get our revenge. Let's go, depart! Let's capture Rommel alive!" Lin Zhan led the way, riding on Xiao Bao, who was clad in runic armor, leading the army with great prestige.
"Young Master's mount is truly majestic, and that beast armor is beautiful," the knights whispered to each other.
"Yes, what kind of spirit beast is that? It looks very powerful. Look at its large frame, its big claws, and its big head. It's clearly a highly aggressive spirit beast."
"Exactly, our Zhen Lei Legion has successors. The young master winning his first battle against Rommel is the fortune of our Zhen Lei Legion and the fortune of the human race."
Lin Zhan quietly listened to the conversations of the soldiers behind him, knowing that the reputation of the Zhen Lei Legion was earned through the blood and lives of two generations of the Lin family and countless human soldiers. He also felt the heavy burden on his shoulders.
