Chapter 368: Waiting
Crisscrossing the mountain range, the battle between the two armies has stopped, and it has slowed down, not that they also saw Wu Shutian and Chen Changxiao on the other side of the East China Sea region, but that the Holy Heavenly Emperor and the Ghost King fought for five days and five nights, and they didn't win or lose at all, and even the two of them were injured the same.
The twenty emperors of the Celestial Empire could not defeat the Three Emperors and the Five Souls of the Hades at the peak of the Infant Realm, and if the Celestial Empire army wanted to rush and kill the army of the Hades, they had to go up the mountain to fight.
At first, I thought that the number of troops in the Celestial Empire was too large, and it was destined to be defeated in a short time, but after the beast clan came to fight with it, I found that this mountainous terrain was the most suitable for those demon beasts who came and went freely in the forest.
There is a popular saying among the people, it is called that no matter how high the kung fu is, you are afraid of poisonous beasts.
There are so many groups of beasts, many of them look very scary, such as snake races, spider tribes, centipede tribes, etc., these races not only look scary, they will also spew out all kinds of venom, the iron armor of the soldiers can prevent swords, but not poison, especially the centipedes that are taller than people when they are straight, they will hardly appear in the territory of the Celestial Empire on weekdays, most of the soldiers in the army have never seen this race, and now they are a little scared when they see it for the first time.
Those apes scurrying between the treetops can be said to be a headache for the army of the Celestial Empire, if they go to catch it, the formation is messed up, the huge beast clan of Ben is scattered, and all kinds of strange beast species are rushing in, and the soldiers are not afraid of being poked by swords, they are afraid of being bitten by poisonous things, and the feeling of life is worse than being stabbed a few times.
After fighting in the past few days, the Celestial Empire has lost 7 million troops, and the Hades Clan has lost more than 3.3 million troops, which is more than double that of the Celestial Empire, so the Holy Heavenly Emperor is really a little tricky to look at.
Regarding this situation, the Holy Heavenly Emperor had thought about it before, why the Hades and the Beast Race could not defeat the dynasty even if they joined forces for thousands of years, but the dynasty just couldn't destroy them.
It is said that it is because of the separation of the vertical and horizontal mountain ranges, and the last time the 10 million army wiped out the ten major tribes that were also blocked by the mountain range in less than a day, it should be said that even if this mountain range can work, it can only play a role in intercepting and preparing for a while, but today's situation is completely different from the war of ten tribes.
But then again
Come back, it's just that the Holy Heavenly Emperor himself has ignored many things, such as the beast clan that the soldiers really don't know how to deal with, and how else can they take care of the left and right on the largest mountain range in the continent, after all, poisonous beasts are infested, and they have always been dead and alive.
In the past, the army of the Celestial Empire fought with the beast clan, and it was the upper hand to be able to fight all the times, because the beast clan at that time was not united, each fought its own one, and those who stood up to fight were all ordinary cultivators, and the high cultivators obviously did not come out, and now even the beast kings of all races have stood up and fought with the clansmen, and the momentum has undoubtedly increased a lot.
In this way, there are still 8 million soldiers left in the Celestial Empire, and there are 3.7 million soldiers left in the Underworld, although it seems that the Celestial Empire still has the advantage, but the Holy Heavenly Emperor obviously does not want to fight like this, he can't defeat the Ghost King, continue to fight, I'm afraid that in the end, even if the soldiers of the two armies divide the victory and defeat, his side will lose at least 12 million soldiers, and the Ghost King can't be defeated, he can leave if he wants, and stay if he wants.
Such an ending is obviously something that the Holy Heavenly Emperor does not want to see, and it is also something that everyone in the Celestial Empire's army does not want to see.
So they wanted to wait, waiting for Emperor Yuan's return, now that so much time has passed, in the eyes of Emperor Shengtian, if Chen Changxiao was not Emperor Yuan's opponent, he should have come back a long time ago, but he has not appeared until now, which makes him frown a little.
At this moment, the sky is already night, as the youngest general in the army, Chu crossed the bridge and sat in front of the military tent with a small bench, looking up at the Chu character military flag planted in front of the tent, which means that this area is Chu crossing the bridge.
He originally wanted to write a letter and ask to go to the East China Sea region to fight, after all, his brother Xiao was there, and he could directly defect in the past, but as soon as the book was put up, he was rejected and returned, the reason is very simple, the number of battleships is certain, and it can't be loaded.
For this reason, the corners of Chu Guoqiao's mouth also twitched, this reason can deceive a three-year-old child, but you can't deceive Chu Guoqiao, the court just thinks that Chu Guoqiao and Chen Changxiao once had a sworn relationship, although the entire Chu family has made a firm attitude, he and Chen Changxiao are definitely not friends who care, and even want to kill him a little, but the court simply refused in order not to show up at all.
After the book was recovered, Chu didn't cross the bridge
Go to the book again, after all, the court thinks so, if you go to the book again, it is obviously something wrong, and the court will definitely think about it seriously.
Of course, it's not that Chu Guoqiao doesn't want to come here, it's just that he is fighting with his own people, and it's really not a matter to think about it like this.
However, after coming here, the army goes to war according to the general of each unit, and the general draws lots to decide who goes first and who goes later, and the war has been like this since ancient times, otherwise no one wants to go to war first and not start fighting, it is a joke to fight by themselves.
Chu Guoqiao didn't care about the lottery, he just waited for them to finish the lot, and left one for himself, after all the generals were happy and sad, Chu Guoqiao finally opened his own lot.
At that moment, all the generals poked their heads over and looked, finally!
That's right, last on!
After a burst of envy, jealousy and hatred among the generals, Chu Guoqiao just had no waves in his heart, and even wanted to laugh a little.
In this way, it seems that his army can be saved, and he doesn't even have a chance to fight, fifteen million armor, when will it be his turn to fight, which made Chu Guoqiao sigh at that time, with a feeling of loss because he regretted that he was not reused, and then said in front of all the generals:
"Hey, General Ben is full of ideals of meritorious service, I thought that this expedition must show his skills, let His Majesty the Holy Emperor see with his own eyes, my Great Sage Heavenly Dynasty is really a hero and a young man, but the Heavenly Lord is not beautiful, and does not let General Ben charge into battle in advance, so he has to play an auxiliary role in the rear. Hey, it's so uncomfortable!"
After saying this, Chu crossed the bridge and pretended to go over and pat the generals of the troops who were the first to send troops to meet the underworld.
"Generals, in that case, then please kill him for me first, don't leave a piece of armor, thank you!"
Thanks a lot, he turned around and swaggered away.
If Chu crossed the bridge and looked back at the expressions on the faces of those generals, he would probably laugh.
However, Chu was indeed laughing after crossing the bridge and turning around, one laughed at the good luck, the second laughed at their bad luck, and the third laughed in this way, so that he could wait for Chen Changxiao's return with peace of mind.
