This put the Sniper Corps at a disadvantage. With fewer soldiers than the Northern Expedition Legion, they would surely be the first to break in a direct exchange like this.
Just then, the Northern Expedition Legion's Shield Soldiers made another move.
Taking advantage of their superior numbers, the Northern Expedition Legion split their Shield Soldiers in two. One group continued to advance, while the other activated their skills, forming a defensive wall in front of their ranged units.
The Sniper Corps' commander, Fan Yuxuan, saw this and thought for a moment, but he didn't change formation.
Instead, he had the ranged units adjust their formation.
The ranks of the Sniper Corps' ranged phalanx split their fire. Some ranks attacked the Shield Soldiers protecting the Northern Expedition Legion's ranged units, while others targeted the Shield Soldiers advancing on their own position.
