"Then please say it. I'll listen carefully," Colton said earnestly.
"Grand Commander Marcia, I'll leave it to you!" Rocky smiled at Marcia.
"Okay." Marcia nodded. She walked to the sand table in the middle of the tent and began to explain the
strategic plan that she and Rocky had come up with before.
The two of them had developed this plan based on their understanding of Alyssa. In other words, they
had predicted the strategy that Alyssa would use and come up with a counter-strategy to fight against
her.
Their plan left Colton, who had been fighting in the battlefield for a long time, stunned, because their
strategy was simply unheard of. It had never been seen before in the history of war in the Supreme
Ether Land.
This strategic plan was aptly named "The Troy Plan" by Rocky.
In fact, anyone from the modern world would know that this name was referring to the invasion of the
Trojan horses. The reason why Rocky used this name was because their strategic plan was to attack
the vital parts of the spiritual race army in a hidden and unpredictable way, like the invasion of the
Trojan horses.
The most terrifying—and also the most effective—part of this plan was that they could disintegrate the
fighting power of the entire spiritual race army with the least number of troops. Of course, the plan also
had its corresponding risks.
Colton's expression became unusually serious after he heard about the risks of the plan. If the plan
failed, it was very likely that all the troops sent out would be annihilated.
After Marcia finished explaining the plan, Rocky looked at Colton intently. "Commander in Chief, that's
the general outline of our plan. Could you please give us some advice?"
"How confident are you about this plan?" Colton asked thoughtfully. He had to ponder it over before
arriving at any decision.
"The two of us came with this plan. If we didn't have absolute confidence in it, we wouldn't have
brought it up to you," Rocky replied with certainty.
"Then how many men do you need to execute this plan?" Colton continued.
Rocky exchanged a glance with Marcia before saying, "Grand Commander Marcia and I need one
hundred thousand soldiers each."
"That's two hundred thousand soldiers in total. Although it's not too many people, given our current
situation, it can be considered a considerable force..." Colton knew that he had to give it careful
thought. The middle army had suffered a great loss before, leaving them with a serious deficiency in
the number of soldiers. If he dispatched another two hundred thousand soldiers to Rocky and Marcia to
carry out this plan, the remaining troops would not be enough to resist the following attacks of the
spiritual race army.
However, the Chief of the Di Clan had already asked him to do his best to assist Rocky. Obviously, the
Chief trusted Rocky very much. Moreover, Colton was aware that Rocky had merged the Army-
blessing Scroll, so it was impossible for him to refuse Rocky's plan.
"How about this? I'll give each of you fifty thousand soldiers to carry out the plan in a month. If it goes
well, I'll send more soldiers to you. What do you think?" Colton finally suggested after pondering over it
for a while.
"Sure. Thank you so much," Rocky replied, nodding. He knew that the human army wasn't strong
enough to spare so many soldiers.
"I hope you won't disappoint our Chief!" Colton added. He had high hopes for Rocky's plan.
Soon, he issued a military order and assigned fifty thousand soldiers each to Rocky and Marcia.
Rocky was only a commander, but he had been given fifty thousand soldiers under his control, which
caused a sensation in the human army.
However, it was an order from Colton, so no one dared to question it.
After getting fifty thousand soldiers each, Rocky and Marcia bid farewell to each other and began to
implement the Troy Plan.
At that time, the border battlefield of the human race was completely occupied by the troops of the
spiritual race, and every important position was guarded by the heavy troops of the spiritual race.
Moreover, there were three hundred thousand soldiers of the spiritual race who were targeting the last
line of defense of the human race, ready to give the human race a final fatal blow.
The Troy Plan was aimed at solving this current predicament of the human army. Although the forces of
the spiritual race army were all over the border battlefield of the human race, they were not familiar with
the terrain there. This was the advantage that Rocky and Marcia intended to exploit with the Troy Plan.
The reason why the spiritual race army guarded the important position of the human border battlefield
was to prevent the human army from launching a counterattack, so that they could occupy this
advantageous spot and form an alliance.
But even though they occupied an important position, since they were not familiar with the terrain, they
could not effectively form a complementary connection with their other troops. Most of their forces
fought alone. Of course, in the spiritual race army's eyes, since the human army had already retreated
to their last line of defense, there was no chance for them to launch a counterattack, so even though
they were fighting separately to guard each position, there was no real danger present for them.
This complacency, however, was their gaping weakness that the Troy Plan was aimed at.
On the third day after Rocky and Marcia led their troops away to carry out their plan, the fifty thousand
soldiers led by Rocky reached their first destination, the Tiger Gorge, which was an important strategic
position on the left battlefield. If they conquered the gorge, it would terrify the enemy troops who were
to attack the human's last defense line, the Tiger Whisker Pass, and cut off their supply chain, which
would pose a big threat to the whole spiritual race army.
Of course, Rocky did not plan to lead the army to attack the gorge openly. Instead, he ordered his
spiritual beasts to dig a secret tunnel and prepared for a surprise attack at night.
By the time the tunnel was dug through, night fell.
In the middle of the night, when the members of the spiritual race relaxed their vigilance, Rocky began
to take action.
In order not to give the guards of the spiritual race army the chance to report suspicious activity, Rocky
did not directly alert them. Instead, he ordered Eunice, Shirley, and Kye to each lead two hundred
soldiers, sneak into the spiritual race army's base camp in the Tiger Gorge through the tunnel and kill
all the guards. After that, they had to kill all the horses, spiritual beasts, and Carrier Beasts of the
spiritual race army.
At the same time, he arranged another troop to pour kerosene a hundred meters away from the base
camp in the gorge to seal off the retreating route of the spiritual race troops.
After the preparation work was finished, Rocky ordered thirty thousand soldiers to wait outside the
gorge, while he led another twenty thousand soldiers to attack the base camp of the spiritual race army.
At the same time, Eunice and the others were attacking the enemies from within the base camp.
With thirty thousand soldiers of the spiritual race present in the Tiger Gorge, a fierce battle was
inevitable. However, because of the sudden attack in the middle of the night, Rocky's troops had the
initial advantage. With the help of the mysterious military arrays and Army-blessing Scroll, the spiritual
race army could not resist the violent attack of Rocky's army.
At last, the commander of the spiritual race army had no choice but to order his troops to withdraw from
their current position.
