Chapter 378: City Shadow, Firelight

The situation in Huanshui City was not too stressful in the first place, if it was just to consider the issue of retreating from the enemy, it might be more convenient for Li Tianzhao to come alone.

However, as long as the ten thousand generals on the side of the Earth Warrior King saw that it was the Lone King who came, the ten thousand generals who were caught by him thought that they were unlucky, and the people next to them did not save them at all, and they all dispersed in a hurry.

Moreover, when these Chaos Swordsmen disperse, they will also destroy the city, tear down buildings along the way, burn them, and feel that the ground system will collapse, etc.

In this way, after the departure of the Wan Zhan General, it became a guerrilla nature.

One city is like this, two cities are like this, three, four, five, six, seven, eight are like this, so how many wandering enemies must be? How many places can they scatter?

Even if Li Tianzhao has three heads and six arms, he can't effectively pursue it.

When they were in Yingxing City, they changed from barefoot to shoe-wearing, and they stubbornly defended the two cities, and they didn't care about the others; now, they are in the form of an alliance, and they themselves require mixed combat strength and advance and retreat together, so that they can have the basis for equal division of territory and co-governance.

Moreover, the territory they have obtained cannot always be empty, which is not in line with their actual needs at this stage.

On the other hand, the Earth Warrior King's side was able to disperse people and harass their rear in order to curb their continued rapid expansion.

There is only one Lone King, except for the Lone King Li Tianzhao, there is only the Sky Breaking Sword that has been slaughtering the city, as long as the team of ten thousand generals of the Earth Martial King does not meet the two of them, and the next ones are fighting, most of them are chaos swordsman-level ten thousand battle generals have a greater advantage, when there are many people on the alliance side, it is good to say, when there are few people, it is good to be able to save their lives.

It is easy to start from scratch, and the alliance quickly expands to 100 cities, but to stabilize the results and continue to expand, it is found that the combat effectiveness is seriously insufficient.

There are more than 30 non-empty cities at present, and how many of the 10,000 generals who are arranged to defend each city have to occupy? The capital of the Sixteen Martial Kings has to be left behind to defend a large amount of combat power.

Forcing together a team that is responsible for attacking is already the limit.

This team is all composed of the kings and generals under the Sixteen Martial Thrones, all of them are Chaos Swordsmen, not the first king, but also the second king.

This team is led by the Lone King.

They chose Huanshui City, with the goal of completely destroying the ten thousand generals in the city and occupying the city as completely as possible.

This city will be the key city to resist the Earth Warrior King for a long time in the future, and it will also be the last one that they can arrange people to defend at present.

After capturing Huanshui City, for a period of time in the future, the Sixteen Martial Kings Alliance will actually not see that there is still capital for expansion, and it is almost inevitable to stick to the existing territory and turn to defense.

However, Li Tianzhao and the sixteen kings and generals investigated and confirmed, and found that there were at least 660,000 generals stationed in the city.

Obviously, the enemy is also prepared that they will come to take the city sooner or later, so so so many people are stationed.

"Wang Jiang, the residents of the city of Huanshui have been forced to move a lot, and there are not many people left, and if you want to occupy it, you have to break the enemy, but the enemy will definitely collapse the mountains and rivers. In this case, we will have ruins!" a king general considered, and felt that this situation was a problem.

There are too many enemies, and it is really impossible not to alarm or prevent them from destroying them all before they are destroyed.

"The Earth Warrior King's side is not cut off now, and there are so many people stationed, it is clear that we feel that it is redundant to attack, and it is best not to attack to maintain the status quo, it seems that they actually want to maintain the situation for the time being, not to counterattack, and not to let us continue to expand, in fact, it is difficult for us to make progress, is it still necessary to attack Huanshui City?"

Ideas like these are the common opinions.

Li Tianzhao also had to admit that the enemy on the opposite side was very thoughtful.

They want to get the water city, at least to get the city in general, what they want is to be close to the mountains and water, and they are worried that the mountain will collapse and cut off the flow of water on the side of the Earth Warrior King, which will affect the many cities they occupy.

Judging from the current situation, the enemy is clearly saying: if you don't attack the city, the water source will be normal, and you will be safe for the time being. If they attack, the mountains will crumble and the waters will be staged, which will lead to the bad situation they fear.

If the enemy is wise and does not make mistakes, and the comparison of the strength of the enemy and us does not have an advantage that can determine the victory, then the confrontation can only continue. The current situation of Huanshui City really has no conditions for attacking, and the enemy will command the deployment of this kind of 'peace array', and we really do not have the conditions to break the formation at present. Rest well tonight and retreat early tomorrow morning. Li Tianzhao also thought about it for several days, but there was really no way to crack it.

It's just that let the key points of Huanshui City be in the hands of the enemy, and when they suddenly launch a counterattack one day, it will have a great impact on them in the short term, and they may even launch a water attack with the help of terrain advantages.

In order to prevent it, they had to arrange as many Chaos Swordsmen of the Five Elements Water System as possible to garrison in the three adjacent cities, so they had to worry about being defeated one by one when the enemy counterattacked.

So, it's best to be able to take it.

But at present, there are no conditions, and there is no choice but to maintain the status quo first.

A group of kings and generals gathered around two fires, boiling broth, eating barbecue, chatting about the situation in Huanshui City, and talking about the next plan.

"Lonely King, since this Huanshui City has been temporarily put on hold, the Fengwu King's side has sent envoys several times to invite the alliance to attack, is it okay to go?"

"The Xuantian Martial King sent someone to send an urgent order, which I just received a few days ago, saying that the Rose King under the Heavenly Martial Throne will come to exterminate the lonely people in the near future, and during this period, we must avoid any conflict with the people of the Heavenly Martial King, and we must not appear in the area where they are fighting. After Li Tianzhao received the order at that time, he was very hesitant.

He was thinking about whether he should remind the lonely people who were fighting for the Wind Warrior King.

If Twilight was here, he wouldn't hesitate to tell her.

But it wasn't the clouds here, and the lonely people didn't have any friendship with him, and they didn't necessarily have any kindness to him.

In this case, why did he do something that disobeyed the order of the Martial King and informed the lonely traveler?

If he had to do it, there was only one reason - because Twilight Smoke cared about these people.

Li Tianzhao thought about it again, but still went to it, and at night, anonymously left a reminder for the lonely traveler, and then left.

However, he felt that it didn't really mean much, because these lonely people were all fighting for the Wind Warrior King, and they were acting together with the warriors of the Wind Warrior King, and it was not something that the Heavenly King could take down if he shouted out and died.

The Wind Martial King clearly wants to use the power of the lone walker, and he is ambitious, so he doesn't pay attention to the eight great martial kings at all, but the lone walker here is very safe.

What Li Tianzhao was worried about was where Yun Duyan was and what his condition was.

Hearing King Lone say this, the kings and generals stopped talking.

The so-called Sixteen Martial Kings Alliance, of course, includes the Xuantian Martial King.

Li Tianzhao is a king general, although he has considerable autonomy over the fief, and the alliance of the fief can be self-determined, but in fact, he still hangs the name of the Xuantian Martial King, even if the things here are almost all decided by himself, but in the alliance of the Sixteen Martial Kings, it is the Xuantian Martial King, not his name as a royal general.

Since it is the name of the Xuantian Martial King, needless to say, the nominal leader of the alliance is of course the Xuantian Martial King.

The Lone King is the Acting Martial King here, acting as the leader of the alliance.

Therefore, when King Xuantian Wu did not have a clear order to the Lone King, the Lone King could decide everything.

However, once there is a clear order, it is equivalent to an order that the Sixteen Martial Kings Alliance must obey.

The current situation is like this, the narrow and chaotic land is temporarily facing off against the Earth Warrior King, and if you want to continue to expand, you have to count on joining forces with the Feng Warrior King and going to the frontal battlefield, so that you can also get some captured territories.

It was clearly beneficial and should be done, but it couldn't be done because of the order of the Xuantian Martial King.

The generals under the Sixteen Martial Thrones felt a little aggrieved and resentful.

However, there is nothing to say.

The Lone King is the general under the throne of Xuantian Wu, and it has been like this from the beginning, so what can be done?

The flames of the fire are burning, and the aroma of barbecued meat is diffused in all directions.

Xing Bingxue didn't want the atmosphere to be so gloomy, and hurriedly said: "The barbecue is ready, I'll divide it, tell me quickly, what do you want to eat?"

The kings put aside their unhappy thoughts and became active again.

Li Tianzhao knew that Xingbing Bingxue was to relieve the siege, but in fact, he didn't feel good about it, because he really didn't know why the Xuantian Land had to cooperate with the sudden decision of the Heavenly Martial King.

Just because the lone walker helped the Wind Warrior King beat the Earth Warrior King?

The combat effectiveness of the lone wanderer is limited, as for letting the Heavenly Martial King be like this?

Suddenly, in the middle of the huge black shadow of the water city under the dark night, a flame suddenly flew up!

Li Tianzhao and the others stood up in surprise and looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.

"If the Earth Pig wants to collapse the mountain, it shouldn't use the power of fire-based chaos! This, it seems that the chaos explosion was hindered when it was launched, and finally rushed into the sky? It can't be the people of the Wind Warrior King who came to attack Huanshui City, right?"

Xing Bingxue looked at the impulsive firelight scene a little strangely distorted, as if it still had a lot of heat, and couldn't help but say, "It's like a scene where the flames melted a lot of ice in an instant?"

"Go over and take a look!" Li Tianzhao immediately led the crowd to rush to Huanshui City, and he didn't know what the situation was for a while.

The King of Wind Warriors came to fight the Water City?

But the edge of the Wind Warrior King's current territory is still far away from Huanshui City, so there is no incentive to do this!

What's more, in the fight against Huanshui City, the Fengwu King should first inform and confirm with the Sixteen Martial Kings Alliance, there is no reason to rush to attack without asking at the time when cooperation is needed, and completely ignore the impact?

"It's impossible for the Fengwu King to send people to attack Huanshui City in order for the Sixteen Martial Kings Alliance to merge as soon as possible, and use it as an exchange for merging and seizing land in the future, right?" Li Tianzhao thought about it, this was the only reasonable explanation under the known conditions.

"Lone King, there is someone in front!"

Li Tianzhao knew it earlier, and when he got closer, he found that it was the land of divine might.

Seeing Li Tianzhao, without waiting for him to ask, he took the initiative to report and said: "King Lone! The wife of King Xuantian Wu is here, knowing that King Lone is in Huanshui City, and he said that he will come to contribute. We didn't know where the lonely king was, but Madame insisted on going into the city alone to investigate, and ordered us to stay here. There was a lot of ice in the city just now, and then there was a sky-high fire, but it was quiet again. ”

"You stay behind, I will go into the city alone to investigate, and there will be fireworks signals if there is a situation. Li Tianzhao was confused.

The last time I sent an urgent order, I didn't mention the marriage at all.

But King Wu rewarded him with a marriage match, and he was not surprised, but he didn't expect this new lady to be so brave!

It would be too unreasonable if something happened to the new lady before he even saw him.

The situation in Huanshui City is special, if there are too many people going in, causing the soldiers stationed by the Earth Martial King to feel too much pressure and directly collapse the mountain, it will be bad!
