Chapter 351: The Great Army Strikes
In front of him, there is an abyss purgatory, but the glimmer of heaven and canyon behind him is not the Pure Land of Bliss.
The huge rolling stones descended down the mountain peak, and those few demon clans also lost their lives in an instant in this huge impact. When the demon clan ran out of this line of Heavenly Canyon, the number of people could only be described in two words: pitiful.
"Rest in place, form a formation to defend, and then find a way to counterattack when our main force comes!" The only remaining demon clan commander said sharply, "The surviving deputy commander, count and calculate carefully, how many of our remaining troops are there?"
But I saw that the shield was attached to the shield, but the defensive formation built this time was even stronger. After all, their hearts are really afraid.
After a while, several deputy commanders of the demon clan had counted them, and hurriedly stepped forward to report, "Report to the commander... Left... There are two thousand three hundred and nineteen left, including six hundred and fifty-two disabled!"
This data is a real slap in the face. The cheeks of all the demon clans were red, and they were forced to speak by the oppressive atmosphere. In less than half an hour after the 20,000 men set out on the expedition, only 2,000 men were lost, and nearly 1,000 of them were disabled.
The deputy commander hurriedly said, "No, Lord Commander, we can't wait here to die, and now there are only these two thousand remnants of the defeated army, and we can't withstand the onslaught of the human race." Exit and go, right... Let's get out of here, just mix with our army and we won't have to die!"
The demon clan commander also thought for a moment, then ordered, "Okay, let's go, listen to my orders, exit this forest at full speed, and join the army!"
The remnants of the 2,000 men were defeated and retreated into the distance. In the heart of every demon soldier, he has long lost his will to fight.
In the main camp of mankind, there was already a cheer, if it weren't for the fact that the crisis had not been resolved, I was afraid that they would have already set up a celebration wine. I have to say that this battle was really beautiful, and it didn't take a single soldier to lose more than 20,000 people on the other side, and this strategy and courage also made them admire Lan Jiu, the awakened Sanpin general, even more in their hearts.
"Haha, General Lan is really powerful, he can really win a big victory, admire and admire!" one of the generals complimented.
However, the general surnamed Zhang was a little worried at the moment, and asked in a low voice, "General Lan, don't we really have to pursue? The enemy has no strength to resist, and if we pursue it now, there will definitely be no loss!"
"Don't chase!" Lan Jiu smiled lightly and said in a low voice, "Let me ask you, if we chase it out, what can we get except to kill these two thousand people?"
The general surnamed Zhang was stunned for a moment, and replied in a low voice, "No, but it is also an honor for us to be able to kill two thousand more demon clans!"
Lan Jiu smiled lightly and said in a low voice, "These two thousand people, as you also said, are the remnants of the defeated army, just a rabble of frightened birds, why should we be afraid? Why should we waste our time and energy for such a group of people? In case there is any accident in the middle, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses!"
The general surnamed Zhang wanted to say something more, but another general who was more familiar with him smiled and said, "General Zhang doesn't have to worry too much, it will definitely not be wrong to do what General Lan thinks... What we can think of, General Lan must have also considered it, and the decision made by General Lan is something that mortals like me can understand!"
It's just that at this time, Lan Jiu's face was a little gloomy, and he said helplessly, "Actually, I don't have any profound ideas, but the current situation can't allow us to be blindly optimistic!"
"Huh?" all the generals exclaimed, their half-believing gazes moving to Lan Jiu.
Lan Jiu said in a low voice, "These 20,000 people are just their advance troops, followed by an army of 80,000 people... It's true that it looks like we won without a single soldier, but just now I counted our battle losses, and it's not low... General Han, tell me about it!"
General Han is the Wupin General who is in charge of logistics here. But I saw that his eyes were full of deep helplessness, and he frowned and said, "Arrow clusters, eight or nine out of ten have been used... More than half of the traps that took a lot of time to prepare failed. ”
Hearing this data, everyone remembered that they had only been paying attention to the casualties, but they had completely forgotten that there was also the consumption of materials.
"Poor Kou Mo Chase, that's what I'm talking about now!" Lan Jiu said in a low voice, "The remnants of the two thousand people are defeated, we don't need to fight to the death again... I think the most important thing to do now is to take advantage of the fact that the demon army has not yet arrived, let our people quickly recover the resources that can be recovered from the arrow clusters, and restore the traps that can be recovered as soon as possible, so that we can deal with the invasion of the demon army!"
After listening to Lan Jiu's words, everyone realized that it was reasonable, and quickly nodded and took action one after another. The real crisis and challenge have not yet begun.
On the other side, it didn't take long for the demon army to converge with the remnants of the two thousand advance army. But I saw the commander of the demon clan's team ask sharply, "What, I gave you 20,000 soldiers and horses, and now I should bring back less than 2,000?" Are you sure you won't explain to me?"
The only remaining Commander was speechless in fright at the moment, "Grand Commander... I'm sorry... It is because we are too careless to underestimate the enemy, and we have fallen for the tricks of mankind, and we are willing to die to apologize!"
But how could the Great Commander let him die so easily? With a wave of his palm, a flash of light flashed, directly on the wrist of the Commander, and the dagger that was originally intended to kill himself was also knocked out. But I only heard the great commander say sternly, "I made such a mistake and damaged 20,000 generals of my demon clan, and the death penalty naturally can't escape... But before you die, you should tell me what the hell is going on, right?"
If it is placed in the human race, the leader of the defeated army wants to apologize for his crime with death, and the basic army generals will stop it. But this is not the case at all in the demon clan, after all, for them, although these ordinary leaders were also raised by him, they are actually sent to death.
It's not because of anything else, it's just that his personal strength is not enough, and even all the commanders in the 20,000 advance army, for this commander, the biggest use is to send him to death!
In fact, the reason why an advance army of 20,000 was sent was not only for the needs of war, but also for a feeling of excluding dissidents. Although Li Xiaofeng restricted Lan Jiu from using his powerful combat power on the battlefield, it did not mean that there were no strong people in the real war.
Whether it is a demon race or a human race, on the battlefield, there are no longer a few people with high strength.
Just like this 100,000-strong army, why did it split an advance army of 20,000? That is, because the strength of these 20,000 people was low, so they could only be sacrificed by those in power. Even if the advance army is all killed, as long as it can really consume the strength of the human race, it will be worth it for the Grand Commander.
The only remaining commander was also a sudden burst in his heart, knowing that this time, it would be difficult to die.
But now that the matter has come to this, what's the use of quibbling? Thinking of this, he smiled lightly and explained the cause and effect again. In fact, in his heart, he was also secretly wondering, what went wrong? Although his personal strength is not good, he can still lead the army, so how can he fall into the way of mankind?
After listening to the commander's confession, the arch-commander was furious, "You mean, 20,000 people... Not a single human has been killed?"
The only remaining commander nodded helplessly, and said with annoyance, "We didn't expect that these 30,000 humans would choose to take the initiative, and use such a conspiracy... I don't ask for forgiveness from the Grand Commander for this fiasco, I just hope that the Grand Commander can give me a chance to take revenge and let me die on the battlefield!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, a silver light flashed, piercing directly into his heart. In his violently contracted eyes, the breath gradually dissipated, and finally, unwilling and relieved to die.
"Hehe, such an ant, do you still want a chance?" but I saw a demon clan walk out and greet the great commander, "Big brother, why cower? Such a simple trap, what are you afraid of, with the strength of our 80,000 people, it is easy to set foot on that forest!"
The Grand Commander nodded, waved his palm, and roared in a low voice, marching with all his might.
After the commander gave the order, all the demon clans marched a little faster, and under the scorching sun, they were also tired and sweating, after all, the siege equipment was still a little too heavy. The Grand Commander, on the other hand, sat leisurely on horseback, and several demon clans who were close to him also enjoyed the privilege of riding horses.
The demon clan is not good at farming, and the king of the wild horse clan is quite powerful, so the wild horse is basically a noble status in the demon clan.
The war horses ridden on these battlefields were bred by humans, and each one was obtained by the demon clan at a cost of a lot of financial and material resources. Therefore, in addition to the real cavalry, the demon clan who can really ride a horse can only prove that they have a relatively high status and power in this army.
Needless to say, in terms of status, this army is under the rule of the Grand Commander. And above the power, this great commander is a demon beast that has always been at the level of a second lord, and compared to the lord, it is only a fraction of a second. And the few horsemen behind him are all elites of the demon clan, and compared to these ordinary demon clans, they are naturally also prominent.
Finally, the demon clan army quickly advanced to the forest position, only to see one of the elite demon clans asking, "Big brother, shall we go in directly?" I heard that the advance army was ambushed here!"
Before the Grand Commander could speak, another elite demon clan answered, "Such a dense forest... Hehe, I have a bold idea, I don't know if I should talk about it or not!"
But I saw the great commander nod his head slightly, and a kind of demon clan gathered around and discussed. The trajectory of a conspiracy is secretly brewing, but who is the hunter and who is the hunter, until the end, no one can say!
