Deep in the city of Falling Stars.

"It's time to retreat."

In a room that was not too bright, the figure of Beichen, the city lord of Black Star Castle, appeared in the holographic image generator, Beichen put his hands behind his back, calm and relaxed, as if he was saying something innocuous and trivial.

"City Lord, you should understand that if I retreat, we will give away the area north of the Ebony River!"

Known as a witch, Xue Yan, who has different eyes and eyes, almost gritted her teeth and said this.

In the holographic image, Beichen's expression still did not change at all: "Compared to a general, there is nothing in the area sent out." What's more, the lost area will be fought back. But if you lose a general......"

The sexy woman in black looked unwilling: "If it weren't for the cutting off of supplies by those bastards, I could have held out for at least another week." It's not even impossible to repel them! ”

"It's okay."

Beichen said indifferently: "In a war, the loss of one place and one city cannot represent anything, what we have to see is the final trend of the war." ”

"Please trust my judgment, General Xue Yan, retreat."

Xue Yan seemed to have lost all her strength, and the light in her heterochromatic eyes dimmed: "Obey your orders, Lord Beichen." ”

Beichen nodded: "Don't be discouraged, I promise, there will be a chance for you to win back a game." ”

The woman raised her head, her eyes shining again: "Then it's settled, my lord!" ”

On the other side of the hologram is the council hall of Blackstar Castle.

Beichen closed his eyes and ended the communication.

On the long table in the hall, there were only two generals now, namely the Shadowless General Argreve and Canglang.

Wearing a strange mask with intricate patterns on his face, the shadowless general is full of mystery, and the whole person is like a ghost, sitting quietly in his place, without any sense of existence at all.

As for the other general, a man named Canglang was wiping his long sword, and when he saw Beichen end the communication, the general asked with great interest: "Lord City, when will I play, I'm already impatient!" ”

"Wait a little longer, General Canglang."

Beichen finally opened his eyes, "Now is not the time to play your trump card." ”

Canglang's voice was low: "Isn't it time yet?" Lord Castle, how did I hear that Optimus Castle had already eaten up a large part of our area, just 45 minutes ago. The storm and the iron wall have converged, and the blockade zone has been spread out along the ebony river, and our Blackstar Fort has no advantage in the frontal battlefield. ”

"If this is not the right time, then dare to ask your lordship, what is the right time?"

Beichen said slowly: "Our fortress has a great shortage compared to the Optimus Castle in terms of army, number of sublimators, high-level combat power, military affairs, resources, and financial resources. ”

"Under these conditions, it's impossible for us to compete with Optimus in a frontal battle, but..."

General Shadowless's voice was slightly hoarse, and he said, "I'll explain it for the city lord." ”

"Our Black Star Fort is in a dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. And behind us, there are a number of important cities that can provide strategic resources. Gray City, Black Cow Town, Mochizuki City, Dragon's Throat Collar ...... As long as these towns are not lost, we will have the strength and strength to fight continuously. ”

"On the other hand, as the Castle Lord said earlier, we don't have enough strength to fight Optimus to the death on a frontal battlefield. Instead of spreading our forces apart, give the enemy a chance to break them one by one. It is better to give them those areas of the frontal battlefield that are not important. ”

"Our side will concentrate all our strength, shrink the defensive line, and use the strongest strength to protect the main city."

Beichen said: "As General Argreve said, the previous confrontation was just to prepare for the later battle. With the efforts and dedication of General Xue Yan and others, we have bought the necessary time. ”

"Now, we already have a large-scale Divine Evil combat force, the new generation of the puppet system has been tuned, and the materials for 'driving' are ready. In addition, several legions are coming from elsewhere, and we will gather the strongest forces under Blackstar Castle. ”

Beichen stretched out his hand and clenched his fist hard: "This power is enough to let Optimus Castle know that we are powerful!" ”

The Faceless General sighed, "Unfortunately, our forbidden experiment was discovered, which gave Primary Optimus support in the Golden Court. Not long ago, the Golden Banner had been hoisted in Optimus, and while the flag was hoisted, no fortress was allowed to attack Optimus or risk being defeated by the Golden Council. ”

Beichen let go of his hand and said in a deep voice: "Yes, if it weren't for that." As long as we keep the main force of Optimus firmly here, our allies can surprise Optimus and make them suffer. ”

Argriff looked at the city lord, "The plan now, if we can't defeat Optimus in a short period of time. Then, we can only fight a delaying war, as long as we can drag the war for two or three months, when the supply consumption of Optimus is far greater than the gains of the war, we can win the opportunity to get to the negotiating table. ”

"But afterwards, we also have to face the accountability of the Golden Court. I think that in addition to handing over all the data of the forbidden experiment and disbanding the Divine Forces, I think you will probably be taken away by the Chamber, Lord of the City..."

Canglang couldn't help but look towards Beichen.

Even if the situation was so unfavorable, there was still no change on Beichen's face: "These things are too far away, don't think about it." Now, we should focus on the war at hand. What I hope is that we can rally our best forces to defeat Optimus, not negotiate peacefully. ”

"The strong are always fought, not born from the negotiating table!"

The Faceless General was silent, but the waves were thoughtful.

Beichen looked at him, and his mind didn't know where to go.

Suddenly, there was a rainstorm of footsteps, the door of the council hall was pushed open, and the chief intelligence officer of Blackstar Castle, a man named Du Gong, hurriedly ran in.

"Lord Beichen!"

"Lord Beichen... Something's wrong, there's an accident. ”

Du Gong hurriedly shouted: "I just received the news that the Dragon's Throat Collar has been attacked!" ”

Shadowless General Huo Ran stood up, and his exclamation came from his mask: "How is it possible, in the hinterland behind us, there is the Sunrise Valley where the gods are circling as a natural barrier. Moreover, almost all of the troops of Optimus are on the frontal battlefield, how can they still have the strength to divide their forces to attack our hinterland city? ”

As soon as the words fell, there was another sound of footsteps, and an intelligence officer of the Black Star Fort rushed into the meeting hall, and without bothering to report to the Du Gong, he directly shouted: "Lord Beichen, our gray city has also been attacked!" ”

Gray City and Dragon's Throat Leader, one in the east and the other in the west, were attacked at the same time, and it was obvious that the other party's forces were strong, otherwise they would not be able to attack both cities at the same time.

Beichen clenched his fists and said in a low voice: "What is the identity of the attacker?" ”

Du Gong showed a listening expression at this time, and in his ears, the green signal light on a small communication machine flashed, which was a sign of communication.

After the signal light went out, Du Gong's voice trembled a little: "It's Storm Castle." Lord Beichen, the identity of the enemy has been found out. It was the ace army of the Stormy Castle that attacked the Dragon's Throat. As for the Gray City, it was attacked by them. ”

"'Sea Dragon' and 'Angry Jiao' are both ace legions of Storm Castle, and their combat effectiveness is amazing. If it were them, then it would be no wonder that they were able to break through a dangerous place like Sunrise Valley and directly attack our hinterland. ”

General Wuying sat down and sighed: "Lord Beichen, this is trouble. If Primrose and Storm Castle were combined, we would have little chance of winning. ”

Beichen exhaled heavily: "Yuan Shu, that old thing, it seems that he doesn't plan to give us a chance." First a blockade was established on the frontal battlefield, and then Fort Storm attacked our large rear. In this way, we will be flanked back and forth, and there will be no room for maneuver! ”

"Yuan Shu, you want to catch us all!"

Beichen muttered: "But you're not afraid, am I fighting with you to break the net?" ”

General Shadowless fell silent.

On the other side, the waves were burning in their eyes, as if they wanted to go out of the city to fight immediately.

......

Falling Star City.

The battle is over.

It was almost dusk, and the witch army desperately broke out of the siege, but because the blockade of Optimus Castle was not completed, this force sacrificed some of the broken soldiers and successfully left the battlefield.

The entire battlefield was filled with smoke, blood stains and bullet craters, and the soldiers responsible for cleaning up the battlefield constantly carried out corpses from under the rubble and rubble, and then sent them to designated places for burial.

Tianyang sat on a small building, the setting sun illuminated his whole body blood-red, and the young man's face was tired. At the moment, he didn't even want to move a finger.

If it weren't for the conditions, Tianyang would have wanted to lie down a long time ago, don't care about anything, and take a big nap first.

Today is arguably the hardest battle he has ever fought since he entered the war. From almost noon until evening, except for letting Ji Yu bandage his wounds, the boy could be said to have no time to breathe at all.

Storm the enemy again and again.

Tearing to the death.

Tianyang couldn't remember how many people he had killed, he only knew that when he hit the back, as long as he saw someone from Blackstar Castle, whether it was a soldier or an officer, whether it was an ordinary person or a sublimator. He instinctively pounced on him, and then buried his opponent under his own spear.

Now, there was blood all over his body, and although there was his blood, more of it was the enemy's.

"White hair, you're not dead yet."

Downstairs, Kunlan's voice came.

Hearing his voice, Tianyang's eyes had a hint of brilliance. He looked down and saw Kunlan sitting down, sitting on a big rock opposite the small building.

The blue-haired boy was covered in blood and smudges all over his body, not much better than Tianyang, and he couldn't even see his eyebrows and mouth on his face.

He untied a kettle, took a sip, then poured the water over his face, flushing down the turbid stream.

Wiping his face, Kun Lan looked up and shouted, "How many people have you killed?" ”

Tianyang replied weakly, "I can't remember." ”

Kunlan laughed: "Me too." ”

Then he cursed: "This dog's war! ”
