Chapter Fifty-Nine—The Dawn Returns
Just as Feng Yuchong, Feng Shanshan, Yu Fei, Nangong Yun, Luo Yinying, and Sun Hao were fighting against the dark ghosts in the Sunshine Forest in the dark abyss, the situation on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent also began to change slightly.
First of all, the 100,000 troops left the country went south, quietly raided and attacked the Fengzhanhui army that was now encircling the Qingming Mountain Range, and the leader of the Fengzhan Hui's northern army to attack the white-clothed Tiannu force was the henchman Qin Yue of the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao, Qin Yue's 50,000 army led by Qin Yue advanced and blocked the Qingming Mountains, and when he was about to encircle and annihilate it, he suddenly suffered a siege from the army of the country. And when the two sides were fighting fiercely, the army of the white-clothed Heavenly Maiden was prominent, and the two sides flanked the 50,000 Feng Zhanhui army led by Qin Yue. Qin Yue suffered from the enemy on his back and was finally defeated, with less than 3,000 of the 50,000 elite troops escaping, most of the rest being captured and a small part killed. Liguo cooperated with the forces of the white-clothed Heavenly Maiden, and won the most brilliant victory since the Dark Legion entered the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, and it was also the hard-won first victory.
Secondly, the Yue army stationed in Tianhailing in the Qilian Mountains, taking advantage of the opportunity of the main force of the Dark Legion besieging Huicheng, the main force composed of 15,000 elite clansmen directly took Que City and Li City, which were now almost defenseless. The Dark Legion is mainly composed of the most ordinary humanoid soldiers and some of the fortifications stationed here, and the defenses are not tight and the number is small. The Yue people took advantage of the night to enter the city, broke through the northern city wall of Licheng, which was not well defended, and successfully helped Qi to recover Licheng, and then continued to march into Quecheng. This army was even ready to take this opportunity to regain Xuancheng, the most important capital of the Qi State.
The continuous unfavorable news came one after another, and the dark evil god, who had always been calm, was now a little unable to sit still, and his original plan was now more or less unexpected. Overall, though, the situation is pretty stable. With this in mind, the Dark Evil God finally immediately ordered the flank of the army of the Sealed War Society to cooperate with the main force of the Dark Legion to immediately break through the city and annihilate the last army of the Qi Kingdom. As long as Huicheng is captured, then the last hope of Qi will be shattered immediately, and these northern armies who tried to save Qi naturally have no choice, and they will all be annihilated in the hands of the dark army.
Through the order of the Dark Evil God, the main army in the Dark Legion plus the main force of the 50,000 Feng Battle Society led by the Holy Emperor himself quickly assembled, converged in one place and completely surrounded the city again, at this time, there were already large and small crises in the city, such as the military food reserves have been somewhat stretched, and the morale of the army has begun to decline gradually, and the 50,000 Qi troops in the city have begun to gradually die out under the continuous harassment of the dark army. If it weren't for the two princes, Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing persevered, relying on their ability and prestige to constantly boost morale and forcibly maintain the last hope of the Qi State now.
The original encirclement of the Dark Legion has gradually receded, and the original Dark Evil God wanted to besiege Huicheng in this way, gradually attracting all the troops that were still supporting the Qi State on the periphery and could not be completely eliminated, so that they could take the initiative to attack. However, all the situations that are happening on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent now are not expected by the Dark Evil God. In desperation, the Dark God could only order the army of the Sealed War Society to assist the main force of the Dark Legion and strive to capture the city in the shortest possible time. Once they captured Huicheng, they immediately turned around and fought back against the army of Liguo and the Celestial Maiden in White, who now had the advantage in the north, so that they could still determine their most critical advantage now.
The rest of the Creation God World has been conquered by the troops of the Dark Legion, this Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent is the original, and it is also a barrier that the Dark Army cannot cross, if it cannot capture the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, it will not be considered to have conquered all the worlds created by the Creation God. And now, the main army on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent is still fighting back here, and in this way, they are slowly upgrading and attacking, so that the Dark Legion can know that their Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent and Xuanling Continent are not easy to bully, and they still have the opportunity to fight back, and they have already occupied a part of the upper hand from beginning to end. This is also something that the dark evil god did not expect, he can only take the initiative to attack, and the target is also clearly pointed to the city. Once the city is conquered, the Qi Kingdom will be declared extinct, and the Rising Star Alliance formed on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent against the Dark Legion will be directly hit hard.
Therefore, the Dark Evil God did not hesitate to mobilize the 50,000 troops of the Sealing War Society and the main army of the Dark Legion, and cooperated with the main army of the Dark Legion led by the two Mingyi envoys to break through the city in one fell swoop. At this time, troops were also being dispatched above the city, and Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing were mainly commanding the army to defend and build fortifications, preparing to deal with the biggest crisis. Of course, in fact, even if there is no army besieging the war from the side, there is already danger inside them, the 50,000 troops in the city consume a lot of food every month, and the food stored in the city itself is not much, and the army of Qi that is besieged in the city is now close to running out of food.
However, at this time, the situation in the city is also quite complicated, the long-term siege has made the army's morale unstable, although the 50,000 troops have not suffered major losses or losses, but the long-term siege and non-stop harassment day and night have put their mental strength in a state of high tension, and they will not be able to recover for a while. In the recent period, some of the Qi army could not bear the pain of being tortured and wanted to flee from the city. For this reason, Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing held a special lecture to appease the hearts of the army, and the two of them told all the soldiers of Qi State in a serious manner that this matter was no longer as simple as whether to surrender or not. The two of them told all the soldiers and surviving people that the current battle against the Dark Legion involved the entire Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, whether it was the departure of the Xuanling Continent or their Qi and Feng countries, they should all deal with the same enemy. Now that the Holy Emperor is loyal to the Dark Legion, the Feudal War Society he leads is naturally their enemy, and no matter what, they can't have the idea of luck or surrender, and the Dark Legion will never be soft on them. In this way, combined with the reward, the morale of the army was stabilized, and the army worked together to fight against the attack of the dark army.
......
Outside the city, in front of the main force of the Dark Legion, the Holy Emperor stood on a small hill with his hands in his hands, and the two Dark Legion's bright-clothed envoys stood beside him one on the left and one right, and the eyes of the three of them were fixed on the banner of the blue-edged lion of the Qi country not far away, this city was the last fortress of the Qi country, although the current situation development was unexpected, but at least there was a chance, and it was precisely for such reasons that the dark evil god ordered the Holy Emperor and the two bright-clothed envoys to cooperate together to capture the city.
According to common sense, the identity of the Holy Emperor is far inferior to that of the two Ming Yi envoys, but now the soul of the Dark Evil God occupies the body of the Holy Emperor, not only firmly controlling him, but also gradually removing his thoughts from the body imperceptibly, and the current body of the Holy Emperor has little of his own will. In this case, the Holy Emperor could now basically represent the Dark Evil God himself, and those two Mingyi envoys naturally wanted to follow behind him.
"What are your plans?" the Holy Emperor took his hand, no one could see whether his face was happy or happy, and it was the first time that the army of the Sealed War Society had seen their sect leader take off his mask and show a face, although he was burly, he had a face as pale and miserable as a dead man. But even so, the army of the Sealed War Society did not dare to speak out, they knew that it was the Dark Legion that fought with them, this army that could be compared to the command of the Creation God was not something they could afford to provoke, and even their sect leader was loyal to this Dark Legion, so they naturally did not say much, quietly waiting on the sidelines to listen to orders and dispatches.
Among the two Mingyi envoys, the Mingyi envoy who held the classics and books in his hand and had a more flexible mind was the first to stand up, he had considered this issue more carefully, and had already thought of a strategy to deal with it. I saw him say unhurriedly: "Master, although the city is well defended, after all, it covers a limited area and the terrain is in a low-lying area, we only need to disperse the attacking army, and first attack the west gate with the army of the Sealed War Society, to attract the attention of the Qi army in the city, and our main force is storming the north gate." At the same time, let the underground troops attack, and the fire dragon used it to cooperate, creating a momentum to attract the main force of Qi to defend. And in this way, I personally led 5,000 humanoid soldiers to raid the south city gate, believing that this will be within reach. ”
The Holy Emperor nodded expressionlessly, raised his right hand and instructed the neatly lined up troops of the Sealing War Society behind him, and waved down to make an offensive movement, and then said lightly: "The Sealing Battle will attack!"
The 50,000 troops of the Sealing War Society who followed the Holy Emperor to come here are all the most elite troops of the Sealing War Society, and they are all battle-hardened feudal soldiers. They marched in formation, laid out siege equipment, and took the lead in attacking the western wall of the city.
At this time, the head of the city was already ready, and the rows of crossbowmen armed with crossbows were already ready for battle. Twenty men were used to deal with the batriders, and there were large trebuchets and hay and rolling stones for fires. The heavily armed soldiers on the head of the city were lined up, and the main guard of the Qi army on each wall was 5,000 men. Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing left 15,000 people in the city, responsible for guarding the city gate and dealing with the underground troops of the Dark Legion, and the 3,000 troops closely guarded the Guifei Xia Yun's hotel, and their task was to protect the Guifei and the crown prince. The last remaining 12,000 troops, 7,000 people temporarily stayed in the city as a mobile support force to wait for orders, and the last remaining 5,000 troops, led by a captain, took advantage of the opportunity that the main army of the Dark Legion and the Sealed War Society were at the north gate, quietly left the south gate, which is still safe, and hid in the woods outside the city to be used as a mobile force. This is also the plan of Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing, leaving such a peripheral army can not only disperse the enemy's attack, but also create a miracle effect.
In the distance, a low whimpering horn sounded among the army of the Dark Legion and the Sealed War Society, which was the prelude to the defense of the city, as the 50,000 troops of the Sealed War Society approached the West City Gate, and the main army of the Dark Legion began to move. This battle is also announced, and it has officially begun!
"Archer, prepare!"
