Chapter 897: One Blow
Sure enough, under careful investigation, this time the various traps pre-arranged by the Hundred Flowers Palace did not cause too many casualties. It's just that there is inevitably more time to delay because of this. In the ensuing siege battle, under the command of Commander Piao, the long-range and close attacks of the decent army were coordinated just right, and the casualties were of course inevitable, but compared with the previous ones, they were greatly reduced.
The five Supreme Elders couldn't stand it again, because of such a cautious attack method, firstly, the progress was slow, and secondly, the casualties were too few, and they were about to capture the entire Baihua Palace, but so far they had not seen the conjectured "big killing move". In case, this Hundred Flowers Palace is really so vulnerable, and in the end, the casualties of the entire decent army are only two or three out of ten, how can it be good?
Once again, the five Supreme Elders joined forces to deprive the Wandering Commander of his command. How smart it is to drift without a trace, how can you not guess what these five old fellows are thinking. But it's strange to say that Piao Wuxian obediently handed over the command of the army unusually cooperatively without the slightest objection, and didn't even force others to use the order of the United Supreme Elders. The five Supreme Elders were also very surprised by this, but they were already happy to see it, so naturally they would not delve into anything. It's just that when they weren't paying attention, a certain idle commander showed a smile that was not easy to detect.
"Hehe, that's very good! Since the most critical battle is not under my command, then how will you detain all kinds of pots (referring to the blame) on my head at that time!" just as he was thinking like this in his heart, the battle had become tragic again.
"Rush, rush me!"
"The Hundred Flowers Palace is about to be unstoppable!"
"Don't give the Hundred Flower Palace any respite!"
"A few more steps, you can reach the core of the Hundred Flowers Palace-the Flower King Palace!"
"Whoever dares to retreat from the battle will be killed!"
......
The five Supreme Elders were scattered in five different directions, cooperating with tacit understanding to continue to coerce and entic. Intimidated by the name of the Supreme Elder, the people of the decent army had to continue to launch fierce attacks, which brought huge casualties in a straight line. Although he was dissatisfied, he was helpless. At this moment, almost everyone is looking forward to being able to take back command of the army without a trace.
The decent army had conquered six walls in a row, but to everyone's discouragement, the towering walls still stood in front of them. It seems that such offensive and defensive wars will continue endlessly.
With the cover of the city wall that had been built a long time ago, the casualties of the Hundred Flowers Palace were much less than those of the decent army. Under normal circumstances, the casualty ratio is more than one to six. In other words, for every Hundred Flowers Palace disciple killed, the decent army had to pay a huge price of more than six casualties. It's just that this is completely within the estimation of the high-level leaders of the large, medium and small sects. The Hundred Flowers Palace is full of more than 1,000 people, and after the decent people pay about half of the casualties for this, they will definitely be able to lure the evil masters lurking in the shadows to attack.
As the five Supreme Elders said, the biggest problem in the Hundred Flowers Palace now is that there is not much room to retreat. Therefore, after taking the initiative to withdraw from the six defensive walls, the situation in the Hundred Flowers Palace became unprecedentedly severe.
"Everyone, now my Hundred Flowers Palace has reached a critical point of life and death!" The first sentence of the Palace Master of the Hundred Flowers Palace pointed out the seriousness of the situation.
"For the sake of the Hundred Flowers Palace, we are willing to give everything!" all the high-level officials of the Hundred Flowers Palace swore in unison.
"This time, whether my Baihua Palace can survive this catastrophe depends on whether the final plan can be successfully implemented. The Palace Master of the Hundred Flowers Palace sighed.
"Well, I'll understand. That's why he looks at the commander of the decent army who can help the Hundred Flowers Palace delay time. Elder Yi Taishang said.
"It's a pity that at this moment, the command of the young commander of the upright army was deprived by the Supreme Elder. Otherwise, with that commander's cautious nature, my Hundred Flowers Palace would not have been forced to the point of exhaustion so quickly. The Palace Master of the Hundred Flowers Palace said with a gloomy expression.
"Well, who's to say it's not, the decent army attacked so frantically, and although the losses were heavy, it occupied most of the defensive walls of my Hundred Flowers Palace as quickly as possible!"
"The most important thing is that the final plan of my Hundred Flowers Palace is still one step away! Therefore, in the next defense, we can no longer use the strategy of 'space for time'. The Palace Master of the Hundred Flowers Palace emphasized with a solemn expression.
"We all understand this!" Elder Yitai agreed.
"Therefore, from now on, every city wall must be defended at the cost of casualties!"
"Alas, at the expense of casualties, there must be a degree! This ultimate plan is to preserve the continuation of my Hundred Flowers Palace. If, in the middle of the defense, all the disciples of my Hundred Flowers Palace are killed and wounded, then what is the value of implementing the final plan?"
Hearing the words of the palace master of the Hundred Flowers Palace, everyone in the secret room showed a gloomy and sad look on their faces.
"All of you here are the mainstays of the Hundred Flowers Palace, so whether my Hundred Flowers Palace can survive this catastrophe this time depends on you a lot. After the palace master of the Hundred Flowers Palace finished speaking, he bowed deeply to everyone.
Everyone in the secret room, including a few Supreme Elders, hurriedly returned the salute.
"First, the hope for the future of my Baihua Palace is all on the younger generation, and second, we are all old, even if we don't have this catastrophe, we won't have a few years to live......"
"Palace Master, we all understand this. We will definitely spare our lives to create opportunities for the younger generation to escape!" Qiu Fengwu assured with a firm expression.
"Okay!" "The Palace Master of the Hundred Flowers Palace couldn't help but praise, "This is also the third point I want to say, in terms of combat effectiveness, we are far beyond the younger generation, so if we want to survive this catastrophe, we don't make any efforts, so we can't send those young generation of junjie to die in vain, right?"
When everyone in the secret room heard this, they all nodded their heads in agreement without hesitation.
"So, in the future, the burden of time to buy for the final plan of the faction falls on us. "Next, the Palace Master of the Hundred Flowers Palace made relevant arrangements for specific combat matters. There is no doubt that the next big battle will become more tragic because of the major adjustment of the battle strategy of the Hundred Flowers Palace.
With their previous combat experience, this time, the five Supreme Elders still took it for granted that as long as the attack was more violent, the defending troops of the Hundred Flowers Palace would retreat decisively when they saw that the situation was not right, as before. Therefore, the urging of the five Supreme Elders became even more urgent. It's just that while they don't give Baihua Palace time to breathe, they actually deprive their own troops of the opportunity to adjust and rest. Therefore, the next step is to take a sudden turn in the war, and the decent army will inevitably fall into a predicament of being caught off guard.
