The two sides fought for a whole day, and the vanguard army paid a huge price, at least tens of thousands of warships were lost here, but only a few defensive bases were captured, and the casualties of the army of the Black Death Empire were less than half, counting, but the Lingmu clan suffered a loss, but this loss was completely a drop in the bucket for the overall strength of the Lingmu clan.

Next, completely to Chen Xing's surprise, the Lingmu Clan did not continue to attack, but instead led the army to retreat, and then withdrew to their own Black Slaughter defense line.

As for the meaning of this slaughter of the Black Death Line, Chen Xing guessed a rough idea when he heard it for the first time, obviously this is the meaning of slaughtering the Black Dead Clan.

Before withdrawing to the Tu Hei defense line, the army of the Lingmu clan was mobilized extremely frequently, and new troops were added at any time, but there were also batches of formed troops that were transferred, although Chen Xing was the envoy of the Star Dragon Empire, but this kind of military dispatch naturally could not let him participate, and he had no way of knowing.

The most central defense base of the Black Slaughter Line

In the command room of a giant battleship, a circle of people sat down around a table.

Half of these people were wearing military uniforms, and half were other clothing, and this one wearing military uniforms was naturally the army, while the others were from the Hall of Elders.

The people of the Hall of Elders generally do not participate in military command, but they are equivalent to the overseers, holding the power of military punishment, and if there is a general who is ineffective in combat, then it is when they do it, it can be said that the power is great.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this war is probably not easy to fight, since ancient times, a full-scale war will only happen when there are great changes within one side, but this time, both sides are at the peak of national development, and this war will inevitably be either you die or I will die, but the national strength of the Black Dead has indeed surpassed us over the years, so we must be more cautious and cautious to defeat the Black Dead."

One of the generals said worriedly.

In fact, it is not a good thing for the Lingmu clan to start a war now, because the weakening of national strength has the most direct impact on the advanced degree of military weapons, the degree of logistics support, and even the growth rate of troops and warships.

Once the Lingmu clan lags behind in these aspects, then their only way is to rely on strategic tactics to fight, otherwise they will not be able to fight hard.

"Why should General Moromi be so worried, we still have a reinforcement of the human race, now it is not as good as before, in the past, there were only two sides fighting, but now with humans participating in the war, this result may change at any time, at least we have an ally, and the Black Death Empire does not, which is enough to offset their advantage."

A man from the Hall of Elders said.

"Because of this, the last general is worried, I heard that the human race has extorted a lot of resources from us, which is also a resource that is lacking in the army, so it was handed over to them in vain, I think they are taking advantage of the fire to rob, human, hum I don't have too much hope, otherwise the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and we will suffer at that time."

Soldiers, they are all straight-tempered people, this is a common problem everywhere, I heard that the human race snatched a large number of military supplies from the hands of the Hall of Elders, and they all suddenly had no good impression of the human race.

"General Moro, please pay attention to your words, this is a decision made by the entire Elder Palace, it is a transaction, if you are so open-mouthed, then I will ask the Great Elder to reason with you personally"

Seeing that this Moromi General was becoming more and more presumptuous, a member of the Hall of Elders stood up and threatened.

The moromi general suddenly withered, and reasoned with the Great Elder, he didn't have the courage yet, in fact, he was just complaining, at this critical moment, the more warships, the better, a large number of resources were given to the human race, and it was naturally them who weakened, so it was natural to have a bad heart.

"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this, now a life-and-death battle with the Black Dead Empire is inevitable, although the human race is a help, but we can't put all our eggs in one basket, we must come up with a plan to be able to repel the Black Dead Empire."

At this time, an old general knocked on the table and said.

This old general was obviously quite prestigious, whether it was General Moromi or the people of the Hall of Elders, they all sat down without saying a word, and they didn't dare to refute.

However, the entire command room also fell silent, and no one came up with a suitable plan.

If it was just an ordinary offensive and defensive battle, they only needed to defend the Tu Hei defense line, but this time with the variable of Nanwang, I heard that Nanwang had a huge elite fleet that had just returned from the edge of the human star field, preparing to attack the Hanako star field.

The Huazi Star Domain is not like the Tu Hei Defense Line, the terrain is open, there is no danger to defend, and it is a place where the empire's commerce is developed, if it is really taken by the King of the South and fights to raise the war, it will be a disaster for the Lingmu Clan, and if a war starts on its own land, it will definitely destroy the entire Huazi Star Domain.

And the word King Nan is like a boulder pressed on their hearts, making it difficult for them to even breathe, because the most capable of fighting in the entire Black Death Empire is King Nan, almost all of his subordinates are elites, and those here are almost all people who have suffered losses under him, if they are allowed to lead troops to fight, they naturally have absolutely no such strength.

The most important thing is that they all have a little self-knowledge, that is, they are sitting in the high-level of the major families, and they are quite good at conspiracies and tricks, but when it comes to fighting, how can they compare with Nanwang, Nanwang's subordinates are all fierce generals promoted by his discernment, and I heard that a general named Tuso under his command only led a partial army, and almost knocked down the entire human race.

"Hmph, don't you usually boast about yourself, why don't you talk now," the old general was angry again.

He is the commander-in-chief this time, it can be said that he is more anxious than anyone else, if he hadn't withdrawn the vanguard army before, the vanguard army still planned to fight for a few days and nights as before, but now their strength is weak, and the general of the vanguard army does not even have this bit of flexibility, and still does things according to the past, he will not fight when he thinks of this anger.

"Marshal, there will be a plan in the end, and if we can succeed, then we have hope of a great victory."

Just when everyone was at a loss, one person suddenly said.

Everyone looked over, but when they saw that it was actually a soldier working in the command room, they immediately showed contempt.

However, the old marshal said: "As long as it is a good plan, this marshal will ensure that you will be promoted to the third rank and lead a fleet alone."

"Thank you, Marshal" A flush suddenly appeared on the face of the little soldier, and he said excitedly: "My uncle is the guard of the human envoy this time, he told me a lot of information about human beings, I heard that they have artificial wormholes and space jumping technology, we can use their technology to easily cross the eternal defense line and build a wormhole within the Black Death Empire, so that we can not only hit the enemy by surprise, but also solve the supply problem, and will definitely be able to take the lead on the battlefield, which has a lot of room for operation, If the operation is good, this is our chance to win, this battle must be fast, we must establish an absolute advantage before the South King reaches the Hanako Star Domain, and when the time comes, even if the South King has three heads and six arms, it will be difficult to reverse the situation."
