Chapter 352: Latent
After the Sunset Coalition arrived, they took a brief rest and began to teleport with the help of Huofeng Town, which was the first time to participate in the war, but they did not teleport directly to the war zone, but to the town closest to the war zone.

Because the Otherworld obviously didn't know that the people from the Sunset Alliance had come to help, Yi Chen and the others planned to return the favor with the other way, and give them a dumpling while they were attacking the city.
Huofeng Town is now used as the alliance's teleportation point, of course, it is very important, the coalition forces are teleporting in all directions, while building new fortifications in Huofeng Town, and installing many of the city defense facilities they brought on the walls of Huofeng Town, and the Sunset Village coalition army here is stationed at no less than 100,000 at any time.
Yi Chen and the others are not idle now, they have already met with several leaders of the Western Alliance, and the other party took out a self-made map and began to tell them about the current situation in the west, the places where the war is being fought, and the places that have fallen, all of which are clearly marked, and everyone can see them at a glance.
Yi Chen pointed to the map and said in surprise: "It's only been three days since the enemy attacked, and he has already captured so many places?"
Yi Chen pointed to the gray area on the map, this is the town that has been marked, and now the gray area has accounted for about one-sixth of the Western Alliance, it is simply terrifying, you must know that it has only been three days since the opponent's counterattack.
While they were talking, a city lord's face suddenly changed, and then he reluctantly picked up a colored pen on the side of the map and added a small piece of gray to the map!
"The town of Hanjin under my command just now came with news that it has fallen!" This city lord's name is Li Pingyang, and after speaking, he showed a depressed look.
"Hanjin Town is an important town under your command, doesn't it have more than 50,000 garrisons, why did it fall so quickly?" A city lord next to him obviously knows his power very well, and you must know that an army of more than 50,000 in a town is really not a few.
Li Yangping said: "It's another surprise attack, at the beginning the other party only had tens of thousands of troops attacking the city, and the defenders didn't care much, but after attacking the city for a period of time, the other party suddenly increased its troops, adding up to nearly 200,000 people, and it was too late to ask for help." ā
Everyone sighed after hearing this, in fact, they have now been counted, the other party's approximate strength is only six or seven hundred thousand, their alliance is not less than the other party, but the strength in their hands can not be concentrated, because everyone has a lot of villages and towns in their hands that need to be garrisoned, so that the troops are scattered, but the other party can selectively concentrate superior forces to attack one place, so that they are helpless, unless they are willing to give up all the affiliated villages and towns in their hands and concentrate on defending the main city, but these subsidiary forces are all they have worked hard to fight, where is willing to give it to others, so the current situation is formed.
And take the Hanjin Town that just fell as an example, this is not the reason why the defenders are stupid, only tens of thousands of people attacked the city at the beginning, he definitely can't ask for help, because the enemy army is not only attacking their one place, many other villages and towns are also being attacked at the same time, at that time, tens of thousands against tens of thousands of him He can completely defend it, but the cunning of the enemy army is that you can't figure out his virtual reality, it may be a feint, or it may be the main attack, and the Western Alliance has limited troops, and it is impossible for others to reinforce as soon as they feint, because after sending troops to reinforce, naturally some places will be empty, they have suffered such losses, but when they need reinforcements, they are often too late, just like Hanjin Town this time, so they are relatively incomprehensible, and the key is that the defensive area is too large and the troops are insufficient.
Of course, the Western Coalition Army also tried to counterattack, wanting to take back the occupied towns, but they didn't dare to come again after trying once, because the other side could concentrate superior forces to defend when defending the city, and when the alliance sent a large army to prepare to take it forcibly, the other party secretly withdrew, and the result was that they took back the town, but others took advantage of the emptiness of their other towns and counterattacked several towns at once, and one of their main cities was also lost in this way, which was really worth the loss and a big loss.
When the city lord of the Western Alliance told Yi Chen the reason, Yi Chen and the others also frowned, the key is that now the enemy has the initiative, so that the Western Alliance is completely in a dead cycle of passive defense and exhaustion.
"Now that I have your reinforcements, I believe the situation will be much better!" Some city lords were obviously a lot more relaxed after Yi Chen and them arrived, you must know that the Sunset Alliance has brought an army of 800,000, to be honest, this is something that the Western Alliance did not expect before, they thought that it would be good to have three or four hundred thousand reinforcements, but now it is a bit of a mixed blessing, because their strength has been seriously weakened now, if the Sunset Alliance has anything to think of them, things will be big.
Yi Chen didn't care what they were thinking, and he was not as optimistic as them, and said: "Although we have more troops now, and under the surprise attack, we should be able to annihilate many of the opponent's troops, but after the other party suffers losses, they will definitely pay attention to the movements of our army, and they will be much more careful in their actions, and they can still concentrate their forces to attack at fixed points, you must know that it takes time for the army to teleport, so although we can rely on the advantage of our troops to save some situations, we are still passive!" ā
Yi Chen's words made everyone's good mood disappear, because if you think about it carefully, it is indeed such a reason, in the first few waves, they will definitely be able to surround and suppress some enemy troops by surprise, but in fact, it will not help the situation too much, the enemy is dark and I am clear, they will still be led by the nose, and the opponent's strength is not enough, can't they increase the troops, Yi Chen doesn't believe that now is the limit of the enemy's strength.
"Is there any good way for the City Lord of Yi?"
After Yi Chen took a step for a while, he suddenly asked, "Since the other party knows about attacking your lair, can't we take the initiative to attack their lair and cut off their retreat?" ā
Yi Chen's words, everyone also understands that the enemy's hundreds of thousands of troops come out to wander, the interior must be relatively empty, and there is a great chance of taking them, if they take their rear, this army will be wasted, because they need supplies, if the supply is cut off, they can starve to death.
"We have also thought about this, at present, in addition to the two frontier towns of the other party, we also know that there are two main cities and some scattered towns that should also be the other party's sphere of influence, but in addition to the two frontier towns, the other party is very far away from us, if we send a large army to go on the expedition, it is impossible not to be discovered, it will be ambushed, not to mention, when we arrive, the other party will definitely have all returned to defense, and it will not have much effect!"
Yi Chen's eyes narrowed after hearing this, and he said lightly: "Your army should be under the supervision of the other party, but our army does not, since this is the case, it seems that our battle plan has to be changed, let our army not raid for the time being, only blend into the war zone to help defend, just insist on not losing the city gate, and no one is allowed to reveal the power on their heads before the order!" ā
As soon as Yi Chen's voice fell, the eyes of some smart people lit up.
Five days later, the western melee is still continuing, but what makes the enemy more puzzled is that the opponent's support speed seems to be much faster, every time they are about to attack the next village and town, the other party always has someone who can come to support in time, so the efficiency has been greatly reduced in the past few days, and they only took two towns and five villages in five days.
Of course, they don't know that as long as a town is attacked now, the Sunset Alliance, which has enough troops, will start to send troops to support, but when there is no danger, they just hide in the city and stand still, and only send some people to shoot at critical moments, and definitely not send more, anyway, just hold it, and the rest can hide in the city and play cards! In a large mountain hundreds of kilometers away from the battlefield, a long army is struggling to move forward, but fortunately, there are mounts to walk, saving a lot of foot strength.
Zhang Feng, who was walking in front, suddenly signaled the team to stop, and after pushing aside a bush, he turned his head and said to Yi Chen, who was leading the team: "City Lord Yi, below is the Dragon Bird Main City!" ā
Yi Chen took out the binoculars and looked at them for a while, then muttered to Zhang Rong behind him for a while, and after leaving about 200,000 troops for him, he began to continue to advance along the mountain range with the rest of the men and horses.
Two days later, Yi Chen, under the leadership of Zhang Feng, appeared in the distance of a place called "Pingqiu City".
Yi Chen took the binoculars and looked at it for a while before he smiled, "The other party is empty, such a big city, it seems that the number of city defenses is only tens of thousands, but we have to be careful, don't startle the snakes now, prevent them from calling for reinforcements, and wait for the unified action after dark!" ā
Zhang Feng nodded a little excitedly, and then everyone lurked quietly in the woods, waiting for dark.
