Chapter 176: Reinforcements are arriving, preparing for a counterattack

The giants, zombies, and zergs retreated, and it seemed that they would not attack again in a short time, so Zhao Hongwei led the Thunder Mecha Regiment back to the Thunder.

Although the previous battle time was only ten minutes, it also consumed a lot of energy for the Thunder Mecha, although it can still maintain the Thunder Mecha for a period of time, but no one knows how long the next battle will take, if the battle is exhausted and the general energy is exhausted, it will stop working on the battlefield, then it will not be blind. Therefore, for the sake of insurance, it is safer to replace the new power stone and keep the mecha in the best condition.

The armed reinforcements also returned to the Thunder to repair, and only sent fifty squads, and five hundred people fell far behind the three clans, always keeping an eye on the movements of the three clans.

At the same time, Elune took the time to meet with Lu Bu to explain his identity and discuss the next defenses.

In this way, time passed little by little, five hours passed, and the three clans still had no intention of counterattacking back, according to the information fed back by the five hundred armed reinforcements, the army of the three clans had been staying a hundred miles away from the southern fortress, as if they were preparing something. Although they wanted to fly over to take a look, there were bugs in the Zerg team that could spray corrosive liquid into the air, up to thousands of meters, and they had no chance to make money, and after paying the price of ten wounded and two dead, they had to stop the operation.

This is obviously not a good sign, if the conditions allow, Elune really wants to drive the Thunder over now and wipe out all three clans. However, he is now more than capable of strength, although the Thunder Army is powerful, but the disadvantages are also obvious, their strong combat power is based on sufficient energy. Let the Thunder Army fight against the army of the three clans, although they can achieve a lot of results at the beginning, but with the consumption of energy, they will become more and more passive, and finally be dragged down by force, for no other reason, the number of the three clans is too much.

Fortunately, three hours after the retreat of the three clans' army, the flying battleships Feilong I and II arrived.

After the 50,000 garrisons entered the fortress, they immediately threw themselves into the defense. There were 20,000 people on the south wall, and 10,000 on each of the east, west, and north walls, and they also brought a lot of equipment and props to defend the city. In addition, the mage, musician, and physician regiments are in place, and the Five Elements and the Thunderblade Knights are also on standby in the fortress.

For a time, the defensive strength of the Southern Fortress was unprecedentedly improved, even beyond the previous period of its strength.

An hour later, Zhou Xiaoning's flying dragon III flying battleship also arrived at the fortress, and the strength of the fortress reached a new peak with a thousand giant warriors and hundreds of masters above the middle of the fifth order.

In the conference room of the Southern Fortress, Zhou Xiaoning and a group of senior generals all gathered here to discuss the next battle.

First of all, Zhou Xiaoning affirmed the stubborn resistance of Lu Bu and others, if they hadn't dragged the army of the three clans to death, I am afraid that the entire Yicheng City would have become a paradise for zergs, giants and zombies.

It is true that the annihilation of the demon army is a big loss for the city of the two realms, although at the beginning, those monsters were forcibly subdued by Zhou Xiaoning with the [Demon King Order], but they also fought a lot of battles for the city of the two realms, and there is no merit and hard work, this account Zhou Xiaoning is recorded on the head of the army of the three clans, if they don't let them pay a hundred times the price, he will not be surnamed Zhou.

"Let's all talk about it, what are we going to do next?"

"City Lord, the southern fortress has strong defenses, coupled with our strength, as long as we defend here, I believe it will not be long before we can drag down the army of the three clans, and when the time comes, we will be able to fight in a battle." The general of the garrison stood up and said.

In Zhou Xiaoning's vision, the garrison army is regarded as the reserve of the War Dragon Army, and its status is inevitably a little embarrassing. The reason why this general stood up and spoke so actively was because he wanted to show off in front of Zhou Xiaoning, and if he could get Zhou Xiaoning's appreciation, the day when the garrison army would come out would not be far away.

Zhou Xiaoning nodded noncommittally, what the general said was a way to be safe, with the current military strength of the Southern Fortress, it was really not difficult to block the offensive of the three clans' armies. It's just that if you want to distinguish the winner from the loser in this style of play, it will take at least three months or more, and Zhou Xiaoning doesn't want to wait so long.

Moreover, if the army of the three clans is forced too tightly, in case the wisdom giants, the spiritual mutant zombies and the mother emperor of the Zerg clan have their brains pumped and want to die with Zhou Xiaoning, abandon the southern fortress, and invade Yicheng on a large scale, even if Zhou Xiaoning can completely wipe out the army of the three clans in the end, Yicheng City and even the Two Realms City will definitely be affected a lot, which is not what he wants to see.

"Lord, it's better for us to take the initiative to attack, although the army of the three clans is large, but they are all local chickens and dogs, as long as we concentrate our forces, we will definitely be able to win in one battle!"

Cao Xing also stood up and offered advice, although what he said was also a method, but the result was inevitably to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. The ultimate goal of Zhou Xiaoning's expedition this time is to recover Hangzhou, if they fight to the death with the army of the three clans at this time, how can they have the strength to block the subsequent invasion of the three parties.

"City Lord, I thought it was ......"

"Lord, we can ......"

……

Half an hour passed, and more than a dozen people stood up to express their opinions, but Zhou Xiaoning was not very satisfied, what he wanted was to win the biggest victory at the lowest cost.

Wang Jianjun sat aside, saw the change in Zhou Xiaoning's expression, and couldn't help sighing. He knew that the loss of the Hangcheng base was due to his unfavorable defenses on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was not unrelated to Zhou Xiaoning's closure of the permanent advent point, which caused the regional barrier to disappear. He will feel self-blame, why not Zhou Xiaoning?

So Zhou Xiaoning's mood at this time, Wang Jianjun can understand.

"City Lord, we can consider the matter of recovering Hangzhou in the long run, after all, the army of the three clans is numerous, and the gap in numbers is too huge, it is very difficult to decide in a battle, so don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Wang Jianjun admonished loudly, he was afraid that Zhou Xiaoning would be young and impulsive and do something reckless.

"Wait, there's a lot of it...... If we make up for the numerical disadvantage, wouldn't it be possible! ”

Zhou Xiaoning's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of a way to solve the problem in front of him.

Zhou Xiaoning's abnormal reaction immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they were all waiting for Zhou Xiaoning to speak.

I saw Zhou Xiaoning wave his right hand, and there were four more scrolls on the conference table, which were shown by the source card delivered by the Wang family when they redeemed Wang Xuan and the others. They are the four dark forbidden spells of [Undead Scourge], [Abyss Summon], [Soul Snatcher Blood Curse] and [Red Blood Thousand Miles].

At the beginning, because these four forbidden spells needed to sacrifice the lives and even souls of thousands of people before they could be activated, they have been hidden by Zhou Xiaoning until now. And at this time, it was because Zhou Xiaoning thought of a way to activate them without sacrificial sacrifices.

"Feng Xian, do you have any collection of the [Essence Blood] source cards dropped by those demon army soldiers?"

"Back to the lord, they have all been included in the treasure trove of the fortress."

"Okay, now I have someone to bring those source cards, I will be of great use."

"No!"

Since the source cards were all classified when they were put into storage, it didn't take long for a ghost army soldier to come in with a box, which was full of boxes of [essence blood] source cards, not to mention tens of thousands.

The [Essence Blood] source card dropped by the demon clan can bring the effect of transforming the bloodline to the user, a good bloodline, the bonus to combat power is quite considerable, Zhou Xiaoning is a living example. Even if most of the more than 10,000 [Essence Blood] source cards were useless, even if there were one or two thousand useful left, it would be worth a lot.

And now, Zhou Xiaoning is afraid that he will lose again.

"Baguio, Xiaoyu, I'll hand over this formation map to you, and immediately order the mage group to start arranging the formation."

Zhou Xiaoning drew a diagram of the Ten Thousand Souls Blood Array, which was a kind of Demon Dao Formation recorded in the Dragon Clan's inheritance, which stimulated a huge amount of dark energy at the cost of the essence blood of thousands of living beings, and then opened up the passage of the Demon Realm and led the existence in the Demon Realm to come to the present world.

Zhou Xiaoning didn't know what kind of world that Demon Realm was, and he didn't need to know it, because the purpose of his stimulation of those dark energies was to urge those four forbidden spell scrolls, and there was no need to open up the Demon Realm passage at all.

Luo Yu's mage inheritance was obtained through the transfer of functional buildings, and some of them knew it but didn't know why, and they couldn't see the mystery of this array. But Baguio is different, she is the eldest lady of the Ghost King Sect, with a profound background, although she can't see through the specific effect of this array, she also faintly senses that something is wrong. However, out of trust in Zhou Xiaoning, she didn't say much, and took Luo Yu out to get busy.

Zhou Xiaoning watched Baguio and Luo Yu go out, and his heart was full of emotion.

But now is not the time to talk about the love of children, Zhou Xiaoning calmed down and ordered: "Everyone go back and step up preparations, in an hour, the whole army will attack, destroy the army of the three clans, and recover Hangcheng!" ”

"City Lord, don't you think about it anymore?"

Wang Jianjun was a little uneasy, he wanted to persuade Zhou Xiaoning to change his mind, not to be greedy for merit, although it was time-consuming, it was better than putting all the troops that had been formed with great difficulty into it.

"Uncle Wang, don't persuade me anymore, I know it in my heart."

Zhou Xiaoning directly rejected Wang Jianjun, he originally had a chance of winning six or seven percent in this battle, and now with the four forbidden spell scrolls, the chance of winning is as high as nine out of nine, unless the army of the three clans can come up with any amazing hole cards, otherwise the chance of promotion of one percent will never happen.

Hearing this, Wang Jianjun couldn't do anything except sigh helplessly, don't look at his status in the Two Realms City, but everyone knows that in the Two Realms City, Zhou Xiaoning's words are holy decrees, as long as he decides something, no one can change it.

Now, Wang Jianjun can only hope that everything is under his control, as Zhou Xiaoning said.
