Chapter 37: The Attack and Defense of Tianji City
After learning about the specific situation of the demon clan, Li Yitian also relieved his heart. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoHe returned to the camp and sent scouts to monitor the movements of the demons at all times, and asked them to report back to him as soon as possible.
Early the next morning, the assembled sergeants immediately set out for the Demon Land. Their plan today is to set foot in this demonic land, and when the powerful monsters go to Tianji City, they will seize the opportunity to break the foundation of the demon race.
As long as there is no such demonic land, the monsters will have to retreat to the rear.
The group of monsters seemed to have been ordered from above, and they kept their positions on guard and did not expand outward. When he saw the army led by Li Yitian, he only roared and scared the other party, and did not mean to take the initiative to attack.
However, Li Yitian, who had already figured out the truth, led the army to rush up directly, and they launched a slaughter-like battle without a sufficiently powerful monster to stop them. These weak monsters were no match for them at all, and the place was soon swept away.
Compared to slaughtering monsters, it takes more time to clean up the demon cave. A large number of demon caves were very strong, and Li Yitian and the others had to gather and destroy them one by one.
In this battle, Li Yiming also grew up quickly, from being a little timid at the beginning, to being able to lead a thousand troops to fight alone, and his strength was recognized by the thousand soldiers.
I have to say that the battle formation division was born for war, although Li Yiming did not condense the soul of the soldiers on the battlefield, but the army with his existence has indeed increased in strength, and they have the power to fight back against monsters.
With the strength of all of them at the beginning of the Basic Martial Realm, they can also fight against the high-level demonic beasts of the Dao Martial Realm. Although their battle had been a little flustered before, the army gradually got used to it. They gradually became familiar with each other's cooperation, and Li Yiming's coordination gradually improved.
When they recognized the existence of the Battle Formation Division, the combat effectiveness of this army was significantly improved again. And this virtuous circle also makes them stronger and stronger, and the trust between them gradually deepens.
"Now that we occupy this demonic land, do we continue to expand the results of the battle?" Xuan Ming said at the right time.
They didn't consume too much strength in this battle, and it was perfectly fine if they continued to go deeper. And it all depends on Li Yitian, as long as Li Yitian is willing, the officers and soldiers of the three armies will definitely continue to follow him.
Looking back at Xuan Ming beside him, this guy is not an easy master to deal with in Li Yitian's impression, and from his various performances, it seems that he knows how to observe the situation very well.
This thoughtful Xuan Ming made Li Yitian very funny. In the face of absolute strength, all means are in vain. And Xuan Ming, who knows this well, is now showing some flattery to Li Yitian, and his behavior is very in place, neither annoying nor too cover-up.
"The whole army will continue to advance for a hundred miles, strangle all the monsters along the way, and destroy all the demon caves!" Li Yitian's military order was issued, and the army was running again like a huge war machine, and the demon caves near them had all been destroyed, and there were no traces of demonization here, but the devastation left behind could not be recovered.
The situation ahead was not clear, but Li Yitian deduced that it must be the same as here, there were not too many monsters guarding it. This time, Li Yitian didn't make another move, he just sat in the Chinese army, and the officers and soldiers of the three armies took action one after another to show their might.
A hundred miles is not a big area for more than 10,000 people, and they keep strangling monsters along the way. The monsters here are also relatively weak, and there are not a few monsters above the Danwu realm, so the lives of the soldiers can be completely guaranteed.
After a day of killing, Li Yitian and they recovered a hundred miles of territory. Destroy the demon caves one by one, until sunset, Li Yicai led the army back to the camp.
The scouts sent out by Li Yitian also came with specific news about Tianji City not long after, and as they guessed, all the nearby demonic beasts gathered around Tianji City. They are about to take Tianji City in one fell swoop, and Tianji City, as an old sect, although they are now in decline, they are still not to be underestimated.
This time, it was a demon marshal who led the monsters to attack Tianji City, and several other demon marshals presided over the attack on Tianji Gate with him as his deputies. And several king-level powerhouses in the Tianji Gate also appeared to form a containment with the other party, and the disciples under their command and the powerhouses of other forces gathered nearby together formed a force to resist the demons.
And this demon commander also immediately sent out a general, and almost all the monsters from thousands of miles around him were drawn. As for the later monsters in the Demon Lands, they were teleported from the Demon Cave after they left.
The battle in Tianji City has been going on for more than a month, but there is still no sign of a decisive victory between the two sides. As an ancient sect that has existed for tens of thousands of years, although he has fallen in a hurry, they still show their strength and inviolability in this battle.
More and more demons were summoned by the three demon commanders, but the continuous battle between the two sides also caused heavy casualties among the demons, and the same was true for the Tianji Gate. In this war of attrition, it is very likely that the outcome of continuing to drag on will be to compete who has more troops.
Neither side had a strong force that could dominate the entire battle, so it was a stalemate.
In the fortifications thousands of miles away from Tianji City, several strong men sat here, and behind them was the plain of a flat river. If the demons capture their line of defense, the Tianji City behind will also be unreservedly displayed in front of the demons.
Not only was Tianjimen forced to relocate, but millions of people in the city also had to leave their homes. If they don't evacuate in time, they will be greeted only by death!
Burdened with the fate of so many people, these transcendent powerhouses also felt a huge pressure. After all, most of the people in your city have a close relationship with them, even those close to them.
"How's the situation now?" asked a sturdy middle-aged man, and the few people next to him also looked at a disciple standing at the bottom of the hall.
"Sect Master, the casualties of the demon clan are also very large now, and their demon commander is quickly summoning the nearby monsters to gather here. This is very disadvantageous for us, because after the casualties of our disciples, the replenishment they have received is very limited, and now almost none of the monks in the vicinity are willing to come again. ”
The disciple dressed as a scribe in the hall opened his mouth and said, he was the head of the overall control of intelligence this time, and he knew the most about specific data and the like.
"There are no more reinforcements from us, and the forces willing to come and resist together have basically arrived. Those who didn't come, we can't force it. The middle-aged man sitting at the top nodded and said, he had sent a letter as early as a month ago, detailing the situation in Tianji City one by one, and the allies who would come would have already come.
"Master, the situation is extremely unfavorable for us. If we drag it until the demon marshal summons the monsters to look at it again, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat it. A person next to him frowned and said.
"Even if we know that we are defeated, we have no way out. Can we still give up here?"
"We can ask for help from other big forces! Those big forces that can't hide out are all rich, if we can ask them to help, won't all problems be solved?"
The master of the door listened to the discussion of the people, but he did not speak. He didn't expect things to come to this point now, but it wasn't as simple as he thought to ask for support from other forces.
"Sect Master, why don't we ask those hidden Great Emperor families for help? At this critical juncture of life and death, the Dongzhou Continent may all be destroyed, what reason do those families have to stick to it?" a slightly younger disciple stood up and said angrily.
The current situation is urgent, but those big families who can really change all this have no intention of making a move. After the death of the previous Elder Gu Tianbei, these Great Emperor families have become much more negative.
Even if the Gu family threatened to avenge Gu Tianbei, they didn't make any obvious moves. This has clearly shown the attitude of these big families, and they are not willing to take it lightly.
The master of the Heavenly Machine Gate smiled slightly, he calmly looked at the fellow disciples around him, "It's not that we don't have a chance of winning, as long as we defeat the Demon Marshal before he gathers enough monsters, all the problems will be solved." ”
"Besides, we have restrained the other party here, and we can also send someone to implement the strategy of drawing salaries from the bottom of the kettle!"
Everyone knows what the master of the Heavenly Machine Gate said, but there is nothing to say. In the current situation, it is obviously not easy for them to quickly defeat the demons, and their current manpower is not enough to implement the strategy of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle.
After all, those caves are not devoid of any defenses, and the deeper you go into the hinterland, the more likely you are to encounter danger.
"Okay, don't worry, after that, the victory or defeat will be revealed!" The master of the Tianji Gate said lightly, his pretended to be profound, so that everyone didn't know what to do, but it was not good to ask directly, so they all fell silent, thinking carefully about the meaning of the master's words.
In the demonic place outside the Tianji Gate fortifications, it was also very lively at this time. A large number of monsters gathered here, and they waited for the order of the marshal, and as soon as the marshal gave them the order, they would immediately attack.
In this dark night, ordinary people have long entered into their dreams. However, the disciples of the Tianji Gate were nervously watching the movement outside in the fortifications, compared to the monsters, the night was more suitable for the monsters' activities.
The Demon Marshal had already organized an overnight attack before, so they had to guard against it.
Stars dot the night, illuminating the world brightly. (To be continued.) )
