Chapter 206: Leave Zhennan for the time being
"We've spent a full month on Zhennan Pass!" Dai Qingxiao said in a somewhat low voice.
Below him, the Dead Blade General Wang Qianjian and the Wild Lion General Ren and other generals of the Star Luo Empire, led by the two of the three most famous generals in the Star Luo Empire, all knelt on one knee on the ground, their heads bowed, and they didn't dare to breathe.
Anyone can sense the anger in Dai Qingxiao's words, but ......
"This time we've unleashed millions of elites, the Tiger Roar, the Raven Army, the Dead Blade Army, and even my royal royal knights!" Dai Qingxiao's words seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth.
"Later, 500,000 people were requisitioned to the front line to attack the city, and the people of major cities and towns in the border areas were also mobilized as a supplementary line!"
The more he spoke, the more the anger in his voice could not be hidden, "The most important thing is that this time it is me, your Imperial Majesty, who is personally on the march! But this can't take this little Zhennanguan!"
"The other party is only an army of 300,000! Among them, 200,000 troops are even more ordinary border guards! It's a far cry from you Imperial elite!"
"But you still can't attack it!"
"How does this make other people on the continent think of me and the Star Luo Empire!" Dai Qingxiao said hatefully, "They will think that I am an incompetent emperor, and the millions of elites of the Star Luo Empire are nothing more than that!"
"You guys! One by one, the incompetent people who sit on the top but are extremely incompetent, causing our Star Luo Empire to lose face and lose its majesty!" He emotionally went to the extreme, raised the tiger's paw high in front of everyone, and smashed the eucalyptus in front of him!
Dai Qingxiao is not like the Snowy Night Emperor, he is in the prime of life, and he has a Contra-level cultivation, so there is no problem at all in smashing a wooden eucalyptus to pieces.
[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]
That's the hardest part.
Lu Yuan had a sentence in his previous life that is very suitable for the current situation, that is, "It's not that we don't work hard, but the other party has a Gundam."
It's really not that the Star Luo Empire doesn't work hard and doesn't want to fight, but in the face of Lu Yuan's combat power, which can be called a dimensionality reduction strike, the Star Luo Empire really tried its best......
Dai Qingxiao actually understands, do you think he doesn't understand?
He also knew that this time it was not a crime of war, but that Lu Yuan on the other side was too reluctant.
Even he and Zhu Lanxi launched the Martial Soul Fusion Technique, the Netherworld White Tiger, but they couldn't beat Lu Yuan, so what should I do?
The key is that he seems to be immortal, one person can block ten thousand troops on the battlefield, and even give him a little time to hold back a hundred thousand years of soul skills, and tens of thousands of troops on your side will be completely wiped out.
Dai Qingxiao's anger is actually similar to that of a player who plays a game and dumps the pot, purely unwilling to admit that this is his mistake.
Especially since he is still the emperor, the emperor must not be wrong, which will compromise the emperor's coercion.
That's why he got angry.
After Dai Qingxiao calmed down a little, he sighed, "Maybe the time hasn't come this time...... Maybe we really shouldn't be obsessed with that......
He looked very tired and stroked his forehead, his eyes full of dazed and sleepy, he wondered if it was really worth it?
Or is it necessary to persist any longer?
Can you really capture Zhennan Pass if you stick to it?
There was a faint sense of retreat in his heart.
This battle was fought not long ago, and the siege of a month is indeed not a long time, generally speaking, it is common to siege the city for two or three months, and even a relatively long siege for half a year is possible.
But that was when the difference in strength between the attacking and defending sides was not large, or the defending side was slightly inferior to the besieging side.
However, the Star Luo Empire's siege forces this time add up to 1.5 million troops, and the most important thing is that there are still one million elite troops.
According to the elite degree of the army, it can be divided into elite ace army, border guard, city defense army, miscellaneous army and temporary army.
Like the ace legions of the two empires, the Royal Knights, the Heaven Dou Empire has a record of 50,000 Royal Knights being able to annihilate a kingdom's 500,000 troops, and the Royal Knights of the Star Luo Empire can be said to be even stronger than the Royal Knights of the Heaven Dou Empire.
The army of a kingdom is almost equivalent to the city defense army.
And the Royal Knights are equivalent to the trump cards in the elite ace army, and the elite armies of the Star Luo Empire's Raven Army and Tiger Roar Army are not as exaggerated as the Royal Knights, 10,000 troops are better than 100,000 city defense troops, plus the strength of the border guards is a little stronger than the city defense army.
But at least 10,000 troops can be equivalent to 20,000 border guards.
In other words, the 300,000 troops in Zhennan Pass are only equivalent to the 200,000 elite troops of the Star Luo Empire.
The offensive and defensive forces of five to one could not be attacked after a month of siege......
In addition, the loss of the empire was too great, and the sacrifice of 500,000 elites and 500,000 people only exchanged for the annihilation of the more than 200,000 troops on the opposite side.
This is difficult for Dai Qingxiao to accept.
When the generals of the Star Luo Empire heard Dai Qingxiao's words, they all fell silent.
In fact, the first to be shaken in their hearts were the front-line generals, as early as the moment when the Shenlong Sect appeared, they failed to attack Zhennan Pass again, and they felt that they couldn't win this battle.
But they didn't dare to say this to Dai Qingxiao, so they had to continue to lead their troops to fight.
But at this time, Dai Qingxiao seemed to have suddenly woken up.
At this time, Wang Qianji, the Death Blade General who was standing at the forefront, took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty...... Now that the attack on Zhennan Pass has suffered too much damage, the minister thinks it is better to retreat."
"Because even if we can capture the Zhennan Pass, is it really worth it for us to suffer such a huge loss?"
The generals couldn't help but nod, but there was one person who didn't think so.
"Death Blade, the empire has suffered such a huge loss in this battle, shouldn't it be attacked even more?!" The lion general, Wren, frowned
He looked at him with a frown and said, "If you return to the city before you have made an inch, I am afraid that you will make everyone on the mainland laugh at that time!" How should we face the common people of the empire, and how should we face the soldiers who died in this battle!"
"Wild Lion! Now is not the time to save face." Wang Qianjian snorted coldly and said, "If you continue to fight, are you really sure to attack Zhennan Pass? You must know that Zhennan Pass is not just one gate!"
"Behind him, there is a huge empire the size of our Star Luo Empire, they haven't come to reinforcements this month, what about two months later? The four kingdoms of the Heaven Dou Empire can still send reinforcements!" He said coldly.
"After a month of continuous attack on Zhennan Pass, the strength is already insufficient, maybe on the next third or fourth day, they have already been attacked by our Star Luo Empire before they can wait for reinforcements, and then relying on Zhennan Pass, what if the enemy army arrives?!" Wren didn't give in, looked at Wang Qianjian and said.
The two generals were arguing with everyone at this moment, which immediately made their generals very uneasy.
It's not that it's rare to see the dispute between Wang Qianjian and Wren, and within the Star Luo Empire, it's not an iron bucket, and even when the overlord general Gao Zhong was alive, there were often discords between the three major generals.
It's just that this is in front of the emperor and on the front line, but Wang Qianjian and Rennes, the two generals with the highest voice in the voice, are arguing here, which is really unsettling.
But thankfully......
This siege is a personal expedition!
"That's enough!" At this time, Dai Qingxiao shouted.
Suddenly, Wang Qianjian and Wren both stopped arguing, knelt down on one knee again, and said in unison, "The royal front is rude, and I hope His Highness will forgive you!"
Dai Qingxiao looked at the two of them, his brows furrowed, and he sighed, "Forget it, there is still one day that is only a month, since this is the case, let's see if the battle tomorrow can capture Zhennan Pass."
"If we capture Zhennan Pass, we will occupy Zhennan Pass, and then try to do it for a long time, but if we can't attack it, then we can only give up and retreat." He looked around at the generals in front of him and said tiredly.
Suddenly, Dai Qingxiao made an order, and everyone could only say, "Obey Your Majesty's will!"
……
It's the night.
In the middle of the south pass of the town.
"Fifth Soul Technique...... Source number control!" Lu Yuan used his soul power to directly penetrate the space in front of him and open up a space shuttle tunnel twenty meters long and three meters high.
Behind him is the only remaining 50,000 troops in Zhennan Pass, a total of 350,000 troops in Zhennan Pass, and now only one-seventh of the troops remains, which can be described as very tragic.
However, the 50,000 troops who survived the brutal battlefield, no matter what happened before, are definitely elite warriors now.
In addition, there are more than a thousand monks of the Divine Dragon Sect, all of whom are soul masters, but they are also sacrificed on the cruel battlefield.
In the last two battles to defend Zhennanguan, more than 200 monks were killed among them, and only more than 1,800 monks were able to return alive.
But even so, they still have no regrets, which is probably the power of faith.
"Sen Luohou, you take everyone to evacuate tonight first." Lu Yuan said, "And all the members of the Divine Dragon Sect, let's also evacuate together, this grace of fighting side by side, I, Lu Yuan, have written it down!" There will be a recompense for the day to come!"
Sen Luohou frowned, "Heavenly Shadow Prince, won't you retreat with us?"
Yu Qianxi also frowned, "Yes, Lu Yuan, you should retreat with us, otherwise everyone will retreat, and only you will be left...... And Miss Rongrong, it's not appropriate."
"Don't worry, I'll go too, I don't plan to hold on, of course I have to retreat." Lu Yuan said with a smile.
"I'm just staying to buy some more time, and at the same time, ......" he was obviously smiling, but for some reason his eyes revealed a hint of coldness and said, "Give those guys from the Star Luo Empire a ...... Great gift!"
Ning Rongrong also smiled and said, "Okay, you guys go first, don't worry about me and Xiao Yuan, it is impossible for me and Xiao Yuan to have an accident."
She has the ability to fly on the right leg bone of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor, and she can still absorb it
The vitality of the nearby weeds regains their injuries.
Lu Yuan is even more outrageous, since he got Xiao Wu's soul ring and soul bone, now he has many life-saving skills, "Void Phantom Scattered", "Glimpse Step", "Crossing Shadow", "Invincible Golden Body", "Teleportation" and "Death Star True Body" The damage reduction has made his survivability full.
It can be said that even if Tang Hao is resurrected now, he may not be able to kill Lu Yuan smoothly.
Ning Rongrong was so confident that she and Lu Yuan would be fine, the most important thing was that she knew very well what kind of gift Lu Yuan was going to give to the Star Luo Empire.
"But......" Yu was still very worried, and wanted to persuade him.
But then, "Okay."
Yu Youxi, who was on the side, smiled and took his sister's hand and said, "Trust him, he's always been like this, hasn't he?"
Yu Youxi turned her pretty face to look at Lu Yuan, her eyes were full of smiles, "He has always been so confident, and he never disappoints, we should trust him when he is sure of something."
Lu Yuan couldn't help but chuckle as he listened to her comments on himself, "So...... Believe me, go first, and I'll meet you to-morrow night."
"A word is a certainty." Yu Youxi said with a smile.
Lu Yuan nodded and replied with a smile, "One word is a deal."
Then without the Star Luo Empire knowing, Zhennanguan was empty overnight, and only ...... were left
Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong.
They sat on the empty city wall, closed their eyes and used their soul power to cultivate, waiting for the dawn to come.
