Chapter 1715: Siege
Coraton nodded, "Okay." However, our army needs to take a break for a while. ”
The demon army marched hundreds of kilometers in a hurry, and there was a considerable degree of consumption of physical strength and spiritual power. If we do not rest at this time and continue to march to the valley of the Forgotten River, the combat effectiveness of the whole army will be sharply reduced by three percent.
Hodan said, "Lord Demon General, Lord of Calamity has more specific instructions regarding this war. ”
"Say it. ”
"You can divide your forces into two parts," said Hodan, "and half of the cannon fodder troops will go to the battlefield of the Forgotten River and wear down the enemy's forces. As for the other half of the elite, they can join up with the demon beast troops who rushed over, and then go to the battlefield to wipe out the enemy's tired division. ”
"Monster troops?" Coraton repeated.
Hodan nodded: "Yes, it is the demon beast army that assisted the Calamity King, exterminated two thousand skeleton soldiers, and thwarted the undead conspiracy." ”
Coraton narrowed his eyes and said, "Wait a minute, is this really the order of the Lord of Calamity?"
"It's true. ”
Hodan pulled out a demonic eye, "You can confirm with Lord of Calamity. ”
Coraton said, "I'll do it myself." He didn't take the Demon Eye in Hodan's hand, he took out a Demon Eye and injected it with evil energy.
The Demon Eye rises into the air and rapidly expands.
Soon, among the huge green eyeballs, the voice of the Calamity King was heard: "Coraton." ”
"The Great Lord of Calamity. ”
Coraton fell to his knees, "Your humble servant Coralton, ask for your own command. ”
From this voice, Coraton could feel the violent spiritual aura of the Calamity King, which was no different from the previous voice.
"I have ordered Hodan to convey the specific instructions. Thou shalt only obey. ”
There seemed to be a hint of impatience in the rumbling voice.
Coraton hurriedly said, "Yes, the Great Calamity King, your subordinates will definitely obey your orders. ”
The emerald demon's eye shrunk and fell back into the palm of Coralton's hand.
"Lord General, do you have any other questions?" said Hodan.
"No more. ”
Coraton asked, "I will leave the elite troops here and wait for the convergence of the demon beast forces." How long will it take for those monsters to arrive?"
Hodan said: "Soon. By the time I gave the order, they were ready to go. ”
Coralton nodded, slightly relieved.
From Coralton's point of view, this combat order of the Calamity King is actually debatable.
Using half of the army as cannon fodder and depleting the enemy's strength in order to achieve the final victory, even if it wins, it is only a crushing victory.
Since there are demon beast troops as backup, it is better to directly join the demon army and face the opponent with the strongest military appearance, it is possible to directly defeat the opponent and have a hearty victory!
This is also the reason why Coraton was suspicious of the Calamity King's commands.
However, since it is certain that it is the personal order of the King of Calamity, it will be fine.
Anyway, in this war, no demons will really die, and dead demons will be reborn after a certain period of time.
It doesn't matter if it's a pyrrhic victory or a complete victory, as long as a victory is enough, the result is no different. It's just to please the King of Silver and make the King of Calamity more face-saving.
At that moment, Coraton ordered the three demon lords, commanding 5,000 demon troops, to continue to the valley of the Forgotten River.
Most of these five thousand demons are cannon fodder troops such as Inferior Demons, Styx Imps, Blade Demons, etc., and they are the cheapest and weakest troops.
The rest of the powerful forces, such as the Demon of Destruction and the Demon of Pain, remained in place according to the order of the Lord of Calamity, waiting to join the Demon Beast forces.
......
"Why hasn't it arrived yet?"
Coralton was a little impatient. It had been an hour since Hodan left.
The rest of the demon lords persuaded one after another: "Lord Demon General, those demon beasts are not worth relying on, it is better for us to go to the battlefield first." ”
Coraton shook his head: "No, this is the order of the Lord of Calamity, and we must obey it. ”
Waited a while longer.
Finally, Gorlaton and other powerful demon lords sensed a large number of spiritual power fluctuations coming from afar.
"It's coming!"
A demon lord shouted excitedly.
On the ground in the distance, a large group of demon beasts, led by a snow-white giant wolf, ran in the direction of the demon army.
Coralton greeted him.
"You are the new mount of the Calamity King?"
"Whew. ”
"Thou ...... You should be able to understand my language, right?"
"Whew!"
"Well, you must obey my orders next, and there must be no mistake!"
"Huh?"
Bruises erupted on Coraton's head.
Suddenly, the Kohun Hills were surrounded by smoke and dust.
Dense spiritual power fluctuations surged from all directions.
One of the demon lords shouted, "Oh no, Lord Colaten!
"More than 10,000 undead!"
In the distance, ten skeleton phalanxes, each from four directions, slowly approached in formation.
"Thou ......," Coralton snapped at Furyclaw.
Furious Paw sat on the ground in a standard dog-sitting position, looking at Coraton innocently.
"We've been fooled!" Gronton shouted angrily, "This demon beast is in collusion with those undead. To keep us waiting so long just to create time for the undead legion to encircle!"
"What about Hodan? he ......"
"He must have surrendered!" said Coraton with certainty.
"General Coraton, what should we do now?" the demon lords asked, babbling.
Golaton briefly assessed his own strength, and immediately settled down. He said loudly: "Rest assured, although we have divided our troops, all those who remain here are elite troops, and there are 5,000 troops! Although the enemy army is very numerous, they are all skeletons that are not worth mentioning, and we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy by a great victory with one as ten!"
After a pause, Coraton exclaimed, "Don't forget that our greatest advantage is that we are not afraid of death!"
"That's right!"
"We can be born again!"
The demon lords encouraged their troops one after another, and suddenly the morale of the five thousand demon army rose a little.
In one of the skeleton arrays, Bai Xiaowen, who was wearing a hood and hiding his tracks, squinted his eyes.
"Looks like they're going to have a hard time with me. Sure enough, the demon lords are very confident in their own individual soldier quality. ”
"Unfortunately, I'm not going to go toe-to-toe with you. As a lord of the ruling system, in this kind of battlefield, my role is worthy of a king-level powerhouse!"
Bai Xiaowen is actually a little modest, he himself has a strength comparable to that of a king, as an evolutionary of the ruling system, it is not too much to be worthy of two kings.
The True Yuan Force erupted violently, and suddenly a black giant phantom appeared in the sky above the ten skeleton soldier phalanxes.
