In the empire, Weiyuan is a special title, which has the meaning of exaltating its prestige outside the territory and represents a great honor. The empire gave this title to Qianye, on the one hand, it had high hopes, expecting him to go to the next level in the future, win Zhenyuan, or even Dingyuan, or be crowned by the king.

The staff marshal is also half a level higher than the ordinary marshal, and can control other marshals in the joint battlefield. It was necessary to grant the staff marshal, so that the commander-in-chief of the Thousand Nights in the Valley of the Black Sun lived up to his name, and without this level of authority, it was always troublesome to command a large number of marshals of the Kingdom.

The two are glorious and powerful, and they cooperate with each other, showing the great sincerity of the empire. In the Valley of the Black Sun, Thousand Nights is to take all authority.

However, if you look at it from another angle, this also means that the empire has really reached the point of exhaustion, and there is no one to send, so it will put all the hope on Qianye, and even deliberately forget the identity of his blood clan.

The award ceremony was short and grand, although except for Zhao Xuanji, no Marshal of the Kingdom was present, but this was also deliberately to avoid embarrassment, after all, the relationship between the military department and Qianye was not unpleasant to describe, and it almost developed into a mortal enemy.

At the end of the ceremony, the general who should hold the authority left behind to make the final handover to Chiya.

"How many troops are there in the Black Sun Valley, who are the commanders, where are our strongholds, how often can we be replenished, how much is the amount of supplies, how many troops does the enemy have, and what is the distribution situation?"

Chiya asked a series of questions in one breath.

The generals hung up the combat map and answered them one by one. When all the questions were answered, Chiya let out a sigh of relief. The situation was even worse than he expected, and the empire now had less than 50,000 troops in the Black Sun Valley, supported by a few secret strongholds of limited size. In comparison, Eternal Night has an army of nearly half a million men.

After Song Zining was seriously injured, the empire suffered repeated defeats on the battlefield, and the casualties increased sharply, far exceeding the eternal night. It was only then that the whole empire really realized how remarkable the one-to-four casualties that Song Zining and Zhao Jundu had fought in the era.

There was a crushing defeat on the ground, the air was also affected, the Imperial transport fleet suffered heavy losses in a row, and the transport capacity was significantly reduced. Although the eternal night did not take advantage of the air battle, the one-to-one exchange was something that the empire could never afford.

In such a situation, no one in the empire dares to accept it, and no one wants to accept it. Those who can be accepted, the empire will never let them go into battle. This is the reason why Zhao Xuanji appeared in the military department.

After all, the new world is only unknown, even if everyone understands that if it is taken by the dark race, it will definitely be detrimental to the future of the human race, but no one can say how long that time will be. And once the power of the empire itself was shaken, tens of millions of people were immediately slaughtered, and they were reverted to the situation of mermaids in the past.

An officer held up the calendar and said, "My lord, do you want to pick a suitable day so that you can take up your post?"

Qianye pushed the calendar away and said, "Don't pick, arrange the floating ship immediately, and I'll go to the Black Sun Valley now." ”

"Yes, sir!"

Moments later, a floating ship took off and sailed towards the gates of the New World.

It wasn't until he stood in the Black Sun Valley and joined up with the Imperial forces that Thousand Nights knew how desperate this force had become.

The remnants of the Empire are stationed in a secret base. The so-called secret base is actually a more secluded valley, with caves coiled inside, which can accommodate the troops to hide.

When the Thousand Nights of Floating Boat arrived, the soldiers were neither excited nor curious, some sat together and chatted, and most of them were lying or sitting, numb and not interested in anything.

Those who came to greet him were only a few low-ranking officers, and the three god generals who were still in the army were nowhere to be seen.

"What about Duke Wen Yuan, Duke Ming Hai and Liu Shuai?" Qianye recalled a few unfamiliar names.

"The three adults are tired from a long battle, and they are all injured, and they are resting at the moment. Senya-sama came suddenly, but I couldn't greet you, so please forgive me. ”

"Take me to meet them. ”

Several officers led the way and led the way to a cave with Qianye. The three gods will each have a corner, and they are all meditating and resting. Seeing Qianye coming, they originally just raised their eyelids, but later recognized the military attaché behind them, so they reluctantly got up.

Qianye looked at the environment, this cave was only a little larger, and it was cleaner. The furnishings inside were extremely shabby, and the three gods and generals only had one marching bed, and they were extremely embarrassed.

The general who accompanied Chiya announced the edict and gave a brief introduction to Chiya. From this moment on, Thousand Nights became the supreme commander of this force and the head of the empire in the entire New World.

While the generals of the military headquarters were still there, Qianye immediately summoned the generals in the army and started the first combat meeting.

"Why are there only so many people?" was the first question Qianye asked.

Narumi Gong was already old, with gray hair, and replied: "Lord Qianye doesn't know, it's not that the support of the empire is not strong, but we don't need too many soldiers, and at the moment, these are already a little too much, whether it is transferred or hidden, it is very difficult. It was not easy for us to get rid of the pursuit of the dark race and find this place. But it's hard to say how long this place will last. ”

Wen Yuan Gong also said: "The former commander has only been in office for seven days, and he has lost five battles in a row, lost 30,000 soldiers, and he himself was seriously injured and returned to the empire for treatment. We are just here to maintain the situation, and I privately think that it will be good to be able to keep these soldiers and the base. ”

Qianye glanced at the general of the military headquarters, and the general spread his hands to show helplessness.

Qianye suddenly understood, the three in front of him were either out of favor or in the last years like Ming Haigong, risking death to fight for the family's military future, all in all, they were all marginal characters, and no one cared about whether they lived or died. The former commander made it possible for serious injuries to be treated in China, but they couldn't. Either you're wounded to the point of damaging your foundation, or you're dying in battle in the Black Sun Valley, and there's no other choice.

In this way, even if they voluntarily come to fill this hole, it is strange that their morale can be high.

Qianye's gaze swept over the three of them, this time looking carefully, and at the same time recalling the information of the three people.

Minghai's surname is Zhou, from a low-grade family, and he is a genius who is rare in his family for a hundred years, and he has successfully broken through the gods. However, when he was young, he lacked resources and his foundation was not strong, and his promotion to the god general was already the limit.

He has worked hard for many years in order to bring the family into a high-quality family. However, he is far from being as talented as Lin Xitang, and he has struggled for half a life, but he has only made his family a leader in the inferior family.

This time, he took a risk before his death, just to accumulate merit so that the family could consolidate its current position.

Even with Lin Xitang's ability and the emperor's honor, once he dies, no one in the family can take the lead, and there are signs of unstable fiefdoms, let alone Ming Haigong. Even if no one is dumped, the descendants of the family must show solid military exploits. Some people will be jealous of the shadow that their peers have obtained from their ancestors, and some people will not resent the sacrifice of their ancestors but let their descendants fall into trouble.

Wenyuan Gong Chen Tongqi is another kind of story, he was a confidant of the Immortal King in the past, and he also participated in the rebellion of the Immortal King, according to the law when the Manchus were punished, but as a god general, Wenyuan Gong was allowed to make meritorious contributions, as long as he made enough meritorious deeds, he could avoid family disasters.

And Liu Chengyun is a retired marshal, and his situation is similar to that of Ming Haigong, who fought hard for the family in his later years.

These three people are all subordinate god generals, and in Qianye's opinion, their aura is vain, and they are not opponents worth paying attention to. But after all, they are all god generals, and they are quite effective helpers.

Qianye carefully inquired about the strengths and abilities of the three of them, and had a rough idea of what they knew. Just as he was about to discuss the next step, an officer suddenly rushed up and shouted, "There is a dark race in the distance!"

Wen Yuan stood up and said in a lost voice: "Coming so fast?"

Qianye got up calmly and said, "It's okay to come, let's go and have a look." ”

The Empire has built simple fortifications outside the valley base, which is better than nothing. At this moment, it was too late to build more fortifications, and there were not enough supplies. In the process of defeat and flight, the bulky materials such as mobile fortifications have long been abandoned.

There were no more than 10,000 dark warriors in pursuit, but the three god generals all had solemn faces and a faint intention to retreat.

Qianye glanced left and right, remained silent, and said, "The number of people on the other side is not very large, and it is completely possible to fight." ”

Liu Chengyun has been in the army for a long time, and said at this time: "My lord, do you know, this kind of mobile force of about 10,000 people does not seem to be much, but in fact, it is the most elite, and the strong ones in it are all double-loaded, and they are all led by the Marquis of Glory." Once they are entangled, it will not take half a day to work, and multiple troops will arrive from all directions. Therefore, it is the best policy to avoid it. ”

Qianye thought for a moment and said, "Isn't this the strategy that Zi Ning used before?"

"This ...... It seems like yes. Liu Chengyun said.

On that day, Song Zining was also scattered outside with many troops, controlled from afar, and if the dark race accidentally divided its troops, it would be gathered and annihilated by the suddenly assembled troops. It's just that now, Eternal Night is using this set on the Empire, which has to be said to be very ironic.

The difference between this and the other is actually in the Heavenly Machine. Song Zining relied on his heavenly attainments, and he could anticipate the enemy's aircraft first, which led to his brilliant achievements in the early stage.

And after the night pupil counterattacked through the air and severely damaged Song Zining, although she did not have the advantage of heavenly machine skills, she had enough troops and a large number of strong people, as long as she continued to find the main force of the imperial army for a decisive battle, the empire would swallow the bitter fruit again and again. If it comes to fighting for attrition, in fact, the empire is the one who can't afford to lose.

Looking at the dark army rushing from afar, Qianye said: "Sound the trumpet!

"What?" the three gods would hardly believe their ears.

"The whole army is attacking! Why, did the three of them not hear clearly, or did they want to disobey the military order?"

At this moment, the general of the military department has not left, and is watching from the side. Liu Zhouchen and the three of them are all marginal figures in the empire, so they naturally dare not disobey openly, let alone fight cowardly for the first time in front of a junior.

A moment later, the two armies were not far apart and came into range of fire.

The Imperial Army obviously had a numerical advantage, but the troops of the Dark Race on the opposite side were the first to attack, and as the troops advanced step by step, the extended artillery fire also fell on the heads of the Imperial Army.

The sporadic heavy artillery fire coverage also caused a little panic among the Imperial Army. In fact, most of the shells were intercepted in mid-air, and the explosions that fell were sparse. But many fighters were not looking ahead, but turned back, waiting for the order to retreat.

Past experience has taught them that once they become entangled with the enemy in front of them, they will be more than lucky. And in the last few battles, it seems that the one-touch escape has become a combat mode.

Under the gaze of thousands of eyes, Qianye stood still and said, "Where is our heavy artillery? Why don't you fire yet?"

Once the heavy artillery is deployed, it is not easy to put away. The three gods beside Thousand Nights glanced at each other, knowing that he had made up his mind to fight the dark race here.
