Chapter 670: Heavenly Xuan Returning to Tranquility
The strong appearance of the white-clothed Xuanwu in the Bright Sect attracted countless eyeballs! And the news of Garuka's serious injury and retreat also spread in Tianxuan. As soon as this news spread, all the big and small forces in Tianxuan breathed a sigh of relief. Whether it is the Tang Kingdom or the main city of the Lizardmen, Vanderlath, they have all started a tense arrangement.
Since Vanderlath is on the Heavenly Desolate Continent, the destruction of the Astor Kingdom has also brought them a crisis! Jeus's participation in the battle of the Astor Continent of Helin has also made them hate and fear the Holy See of Light! After all, their great lord Jeus died in the city of Hellin!
But the strength of the Bright Sect was completely beyond their expectations......
The Tang State Marshal Tang was also captured by the Bright Sect and fell into the hands of Emmons! In addition, in the Battle of Hailin, the Tang State suffered heavy losses and did not gain any benefits. Therefore, the Tang Kingdom and the Holy See of Bright Light also formed an indissoluble enmity!
However, even if there was no war in the Astor Kingdom, the Tang Kingdom had always disagreed with the Holy See of Light. In the Heavenly Demon Continent, the powerful Tang Kingdom does not allow any Bright Cultists to set foot on that land, once captured, the light ones will be repatriated, and the heavy ones will be killed directly! Since the Tang Kingdom and the Bright Sect are separated by the Astor Kingdom, there has always been no fierce conflict between the two major forces, but this time is different! The destruction of the Astor Kingdom also made the Tang Kingdom begin to face the Holy See!
If it weren't for the mysterious Xuanwu who came forward to stop Garuka, then the flames of war would have burned to the Heavenly Demon Continent by now......
They have the same hatred as the Tang Kingdom, and there is also the Qinglong Clan that has just risen! Their great patriarch was killed, which is not only a loss for the Qinglong Clan, but also a shame! The most powerful patriarch of the Qinglong Clan, the real leader, was killed outside! This hatred cannot be resolved no matter what!
Therefore, with the rapid arrangement of the Tang Kingdom, the Qinglong clan was not idle. The 50,000 dragon warriors of the Qinglong clan were directly thrown into the battlefield, and the plain pass where the Heavenly Desolate Continent and the Heavenly Demon Continent were connected, and the 50,000 dragon warriors of the Qinglong clan and the 100,000 elite soldiers of the Tang Kingdom were stationed!
As for the other two major passes, they were also heavily guarded! Lingzhong Pass, when the Battle of Hailin broke out, Kandal attacked Lingzhong Pass! With an army of 200,000 troops, they were rampage through the Heavenly Demon Continent, causing great peace and heavy losses in the major cities of the Heavenly Demon Continent! Many of these medium-sized cities and villages were destroyed!
For the Heavenly Demon Continent, the Bright Alliance Army did not have any mercy. Every village or town he visited, except for the necessary military resources, all the rest were burned, and the defending army was also slaughtered, and Kandal's purpose was to disrupt the rear of the Tang State! And it was very successful......
Tang Guo's attention was attracted by the battle of Hailin, but he didn't expect that the Guangming Alliance Army would dare to fight on multiple fronts, and the battle line was so long! Kandal, a strange army, caught Tang Guo a little off guard!
The three city lords of Hongcheng, Huangcheng, and Dungeon organized the city defense army and private army in the city, a full 120,000 people, and played a cat-and-mouse game with Kandal on the Heavenly Demon Continent......
However, Kandal is like a loach, slippery and unusual. The three city lords held Kandal's tail and chased wildly for more than a month but failed to block Kandal. And he also allowed Kandal to destroy the three important towns again! Kandal's topography of the Heavenly Demon Continent was like his own back garden, which made the three major city lords very annoyed, but there was nothing he could do! During this period, the Qinglong clan also participated, but it didn't make Kandal lose much.
If Garuka hadn't been found by the legendary Xuanwu and seriously injured by him, Kandal would not have retreated, and would still have stirred up trouble in the Heavenly Demon Continent! However, after Garuka was seriously injured, Kandal withdrew to Hailin with his army.
What annoyed the three major city lords and the Qinglong clan was that they knew that Kandal would withdraw their troops, but they couldn't find out the number of Kandal's roads in the Heavenly Demon Continent! After that, news came from the Plains Pass that Kandal had broken through with 180,000 soldiers, resulting in the loss of the Plains Pass and heavy losses! This made the three city lords even more annoyed!
From Lingzhong Pass to Pingyuan Pass, there are hundreds of thousands of miles in between! Kandal actually swaggered so much, taking 200,000 people in a roundabout way! And before that, Kandal had been moving in the direction of Pingyuan Pass, and he should have thought of a way out when he entered the Heavenly Demon Continent!
The name of "Ghost General" spread among the Heavenly Demons......
However, the crux of this lies in the fact that Kandal's team is not a small army of a few hundred people, but an army of 200,000 people! Although it is said that the Heavenly Demon Continent is vast and sparsely populated, it is as if it is like hanging out with so many people in the Heavenly Demon with such fanfare, and it also plays the three major city lords and the Qinglong clan! All of a sudden, the three major city lords and the Qinglong clan have become the laughing stock of countless people......
Although less than 40,000 of Kandal's legions eventually fled back to Hailin, the entire plain pass was destroyed, and 80,000 soldiers guarding the pass were completely wiped out!
What's more, there are dozens of small and medium-sized cities in Lingzhongguan and the Heavenly Demon Continent, and countless towns have been destroyed by Kandal......
Kandal's battle can be described as perfect, and it couldn't be more perfect!
Now, the Tang State has learned from the pain and rebuilt the Plains Pass. Moreover, a large number of troops were also deployed to defend it! If Kandal had attacked with 200,000 men at this time, the outcome would have been completely different! Of course, there is no such thing as an if in this world......
If it weren't for the legendary Xuanwu suddenly appearing and injuring Garuka, Kandal would have become the most dazzling person of this era! It's just that his record is a little pale for Garuka and Xuanwu! A master of the realm like the two of them is worthy of people's attention!
For example, today, the three major passes of the Demon Continent are heavily guarded. Lingzhong Pass has a full 200,000 troops! It is the four major cities of Duncheng, Xuancheng, Huangcheng, and Yucheng that sent troops to garrison! This is also the place with the largest number of troops!
The rebuilt Plains Pass, where there is a heavenly city guard. Compared to the other four major cities, the 100,000 Tianzi elite soldiers are not too much! Moreover, there are most of the troops of the Qinglong clan, a full 50,000 dragon warriors, and this can be said to have become the most difficult pass in the Heavenly Demon Continent!
As for the Li Customs located on the South Caspian Sea, it was guarded by Hongcheng alone. The battle of 100,000 elite sailors is enough to scare off anyone!
At this time, the reason why the Tang State did not choose to take the initiative to attack was also because it was afraid of the counterattack of the Bright Holy See! Because the Holy See could afford to lose! The Astor Kingdom of the Heavenly Desolate Continent was all occupied by them, and their foundation was not here! It was a big deal to cede the territory of the Astor Kingdom to the Tang State, and there was nothing to lose.
But Tang Guoke is different. They can't afford to lose, these forces seem to be strong, but they are also the vast majority of the troops that the Tang State can take out in a short period of time! The remaining recruits who have just joined the army are not suitable for positional warfare! The downwind war is almost the same, and the headwind is completely unreliable! Not only will they not be able to play a role, but they will also become a drag......
If you take the initiative to attack, then as long as the Bright Alliance forces fight a war of movement and attrition with the Tang Kingdom, the Tang Kingdom will not be able to withstand it! Therefore, although now is a good time to attack the Bright Sect, it is better to defend the three major passes and develop with peace of mind! The terrain of the Heavenly Demon Continent is extremely large, and there are countless races! As long as this continent can be safely defended, the Tang Kingdom will be invincible! Moreover, after regaining its strength again, the Tang Kingdom at that time will be like a tiger out of the cage, and no one can stop it!
However, Tang Guo is now facing a major problem, that is, the selection of the commander-in-chief! A large number of war-type talents. Compared to the Bright Holy See, this is very stretched......
However, just when the entire Tianxuan had entered a quiet period, and all of them were recruiting, the extremely remote place of the Heavenly Demon Continent was still in that small valley......
The white-clothed Xuanwu stood up from the cross-legged retraction. His face also returned to normal. It looked like he was healing just now......
Seeing the white-clothed Xuanwu get up, the six-armed man Sham hurriedly stepped forward a few steps, and greeted with a nervous expression: "My lord, the injury can be healed!?" From the sincerity on his face, it is not difficult to find that his loyalty to Xuanwu is absolutely unique!
"Well, it's okay for now. But at my point, once I'm injured, it's hard to recover. It will take at least a few years of recuperation. Seeing the extremely concerned gaze flashing on Sham's face, the white-clothed Xuanwu smiled slightly.
Looking to the north, Xuanwu lost his mind for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking......
