Chapter 758: Preserve Strength

Huang Long transmitted Huang Ling's meaning to the Dog Emperor City Lord, Xiong Shi City Lord, Monkey Emperor City Lord, and Tiger Emperor City Lord, asking them to retreat in a timely manner according to the situation, preserve their strength, and stop fighting hard with the dragon hunting disciples.

After receiving Huang Long's transmission, the four city lords all understood the painstaking intention and purpose of Huang Ling's request, so they arranged for their teams to gradually retreat according to the situation of both sides of the enemy, and gradually approached the Golden Eagle Divine City, the Golden Wood Divine City, and the Golden Cat Divine City.

After this, the dragon hunting children occupied more and more places, but the creatures in these places were either completely withdrawn, or the number was very scarce, and it was simply impossible to meet the needs of the dragon hunting children who came quickly.

This led to the dragon hunting disciples competing with each other in order to obtain more cultivation resources, causing more and more pressure on the resistance army of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom.

Among them, the pressure on the eastern front was the greatest, and in less than a month, the east of Yiguanbang ushered in the dragon hunting children, and the eastern part of Banqi Bang and Mangguan Bang also began to be attacked by the dragon hunting children.

The Fuyun State, Zhengyun State, and Langyun State to the north of Banqi State were also lost under the strong attack of the children of the Fire Dragon Clan who occupied Jinshan Divine City.

Both the Jinshan Divine City Resistance Army and the Jindu Divine City Resistance Army retreated to the territory of Banqi State and Mangguan State.

The resistance army of the Golden Eagle Divine City also retreated to the central regions of the Yi Guan State and the Eastern Guan State.

This is true for the east and northeast, and it is actually very difficult for the north.

The First Front Army of the Jinshan Divine City Resistance Army led by Dean Lion King retreated to the western line of Banqi State in the south of Leyun State, the Second Front Army of the Golden Earth Divine City Resistance Army led by the Tiger Emperor also retreated to the northern part of the original Quanbang, and the First Front Army of the Golden Earth Divine City Resistance Army led by Dean Xiong Hai retreated directly to the mountains north of the Golden Cat Divine City.

At this time, although more than 3 million resistance soldiers organized by the Golden Cat Divine City reached the northern mountains, and the resistance army organized by the Golden Wood Divine City also reached the northern part of the Former Quan State along the Yuanquan River, making the number of Jinshan Divine Kingdom soldiers on the northern front reach more than 10 million, but it was still at a disadvantage compared to the number of dragon hunting children who went south.

Looking at the entire Dragon Hunting Battlefield, the number of Dragon Hunting Disciples is still more than 17 million and nearly 18 million, while the number of resisting soldiers in the Jinshan Divine Kingdom is only more than 19 million and less than 20 million.

Although the number of resisting soldiers of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom was slightly larger, their combat effectiveness was much worse than that of the hunting children of the Dragon Clan.

Huang Long said: "Now, the resistance teams of our six major divine cities have all gone into battle, and the number of soldiers has approached twenty million. If we add the teams organized by some divine states in the south and west, the number of our soldiers may reach 30 million, and the number of soldiers can exceed the number of dragon hunting children, but the combat effectiveness is still not comparable to the combat power of the dragon hunting children! ”

"Yes, the combat power of the dragon clan creatures is incomparable to the creatures of other races, our 30 million soldiers can only be equivalent to four or five million dragon hunting children, and at most can only be equivalent to six million dragon hunting children, this is the status quo that cannot be changed. What we are doing now can only be to avoid the edge and try to preserve our strength as much as possible. In the past, our purpose in opening up the southern territory of Hongmeng Mountain was to go in and take refuge when we could not resist the attack of the dragon hunting children. Now it seems that we did the right thing. Huang Ling said.

"Yes, as the dragon hunting children continue to move south and west, our room for maneuver is getting smaller and smaller, and the pressure is getting bigger and bigger. Now, more than 17 million Dragon Hunting disciples are frantically attacking, all competing for cultivation resources, if our approach is not suitable, it is likely to be defeated, neither can resist the attack of the Dragon Hunting Disciples, nor can we keep the existing soldiers. Huang Long said.

"The battle in the east is already backed by the Golden Eagle Divine City, and the northern side is already based on the Golden Wood Divine City and the Golden Cat Divine City, and the three lines of defense we originally designed are now only one. However, we still can't fight a decisive battle with the dragon hunters, and we still have to take the initiative to retreat while fighting, and put the preservation of strength in the first place. Huang Ling said.

"As it stands, it should be. However, there are already some of our soldiers who do not want to continue the retreat and want to start a counteroffensive. Huang Long said.

"The desire to counterattack is understandable, but to start a counteroffensive now, you can only sacrifice in vain, which is not at all in line with our plan to continue to preserve our strength. You must constantly send messages to warn the resisting armies from all walks of life, asking them to accurately understand the situation, not to be impatient, not to act recklessly, and to take the preservation of strength as the main task. Huang Ling said.

"Okay, I see!" Huang Long nodded and said.

On the third day after Huang Long spread the word to the resistance army of all walks of life to preserve his strength, a huge battle broke out in the territory of Banqi State.

On this day, the Second Front Army and the Beach Army, which had retreated from the east and north to the territory of Banqi State, encountered more than 500,000 dragon hunters who had stormed the northern border of Banqi State.

At this time, there were more than 2 million soldiers in the Second Front Army and the Beach Army of the Jinshan Divine City's Resistance Army, and they were all under the command of the Monkey Emperor, the city lord of the Golden Mountain Divine City.

According to Huang Ling and Huang Long's plan, in the face of this situation, they should command the team to maneuver appropriately, and then evacuate quickly.

Because it is difficult for more than 2 million Jinshan Divine Kingdom soldiers to defeat more than 500,000 dragon hunting disciples, even if they fight to the death, they are not absolutely sure of victory.

However, the Monkey Emperor sent a message to the Jinshan Divine City Resistance Army in the west and the Jindu Divine City Resistance Army in the east, and the Third Front Army to assist in monitoring and helping the Jinshan Divine City Second Front Army and the Beach Army to encircle and annihilate the more than 500,000 dragon hunting children.

The first front army of the Jinshan Divine City Resistance Army in the west was led by the Lion King's dean, and after receiving the Monkey Emperor's transmission, he immediately dissuaded the Monkey Emperor, asking the Monkey Emperor to pay attention to maneuvering and retreating, and not to organize encirclement and annihilation.

To the east, Ma Hu, commander of the Third Front Army of the Jindu Divine City Resistance Army, also dissuaded the Monkey Emperor from retreating.

But the Monkey Emperor did not listen, and continued to ask the Lion King Dean and Marshal Ma Hu to lead the team to monitor from both sides and help Jinshan Divine City resist the Second Front Army of the Great Army and the Beach Army to encircle and annihilate the more than 500,000 dragon hunting children.

At the repeated request of the Monkey Emperor, the Lion King Dean and Marshal Ma Hu had to command the team to assist from both sides to help Jinshan Shencheng resist the Second Front Army and the Beach Army in battle.

However, after the battle broke out in an all-round way, because the Jinshan Divine Kingdom team could not do ten to one, and because the soldiers of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom could not completely divide the more than 500,000 dragon hunting children, the battle was delayed and difficult to win, and it was the next day.

At noon the next day, more than 300,000 dragon hunting disciples descended from the territory of Zhengyun State in the north.

After the arrival of these dragon hunting disciples, it was immediately difficult for the soldiers of the Second Front Army and the Beach Army of the Jinshan Divine City Resistance Army, who were fighting hard, to resist and retreated one after another.

Marshal Ma Hu and Dean Lion King, who were monitoring from the east and west, immediately commanded the team to cover the past from the east and west, wanting to cover the retreat of the soldiers of the Second Front Army and the Beach Army of the Jinshan Divine Castle Resistance Army.

However, when the Monkey Emperor saw the troops commanded by the Lion King and Marshal Ma Hu rushing towards him, he immediately organized and commanded the soldiers of the Second Front Army and the Beach Army of the retreating Jinshan Divine City Resistance Army to return to fight.

As a result, more than 4 million Jinshan Divine Kingdom soldiers fought with more than 800,000 dragon hunting disciples.

The battle lasted from day to night, and from night to day, until the next night.

The battle lasted three and a half days.

This battle was the largest battle since the dragon children hunted.

This battle was also the battle in which the soldiers of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom sacrificed the most.

After the battle, the surviving soldiers of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield and collected the dragon body, the dragon pill and the divine babies of the dragon clan's disciples, but they did not have time to recover the bodies of the many sacrificed soldiers of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom.

Because as this battle progressed, the dragon hunting disciples who had reached the north of Banqi State, Fuyun State, Zhengyun State, Langyun State and Leyun State also came quickly, wanting to come here to get a piece of the pie.

Therefore, the Jinshan Divine Kingdom team, which had barely won the victory, had to quickly withdraw and retreat to the south of Banqibang.

In this battle, although the Jinshan Divine Kingdom team was victorious, it paid a heavy price.

According to statistics, this battle annihilated more than 732,000 dragon hunting disciples, but sacrificed more than 1,569,000 Jinshan Divine Kingdom soldiers.

After the battle, Banqibang also fell into the hands of more dragon hunting children who heard the news, and became a new paradise for the dragon hunting children who went crazy south.

The 1st Front, the 2nd Front, and the Beach Army of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom could only retreat to the northern part of Mangguan State, south of Banqi State.

The Third Front Army of the Jindu Shencheng Resistance Army also urgently retreated southward, and finally retreated to the adjacent border areas in the eastern part of Mangguan State and the northern part of Yiguan State.

News of this battle quickly spread throughout the Golden Mountain Divine Kingdom.

After the Rabbit Emperor, who was in command of the Golden Eagle Divine City, received the report from the Monkey Emperor, he replied: "Your courage is commendable, but where is your ingenuity?" More than 1,500,000 of our soldiers have been buried like this by you! ”

After the Monkey Emperor received the reply from the Rabbit Emperor, he blamed himself very much, and he also knew that he was too impatient and reckless this time, and seriously lost the precious power of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom.

Yes, although more than 700,000 dragon hunting disciples were eliminated, more than 1.5 million Jinshan Divine Kingdom soldiers were sacrificed, and this kind of battle of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 2,000 can only be said to be a failure.

And because of this battle, the entire Banqi State was also lost, so that the northern eastern section of the defense line could only retreat to Mangguan State.

After Huang Ling and Huang Long received the report of this battle, their hearts became even heavier.

Huang Ling said: "Brother Huanglong, you once again send a message to the resistance armies, asking them to pay attention to the whereabouts of the dragon clan's hunting disciples and effectively preserve their strength. In the case that the ratio of soldiers and soldiers does not reach 10 to 1, resolutely retreat, do not fight hard, let alone a large-scale decisive battle to bury our precious strength. ”

Huang Long nodded, and immediately transmitted the message to the resistance armies from all walks of life, asking all resistance armies to earnestly learn the lessons of the defeat of the Second Front Army and the Beach Army of the Jinshan Divine City Resistance Army, always keep the preservation of strength in mind, and take the effective preservation of the vitality of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom as the criterion for judging the battle and retreat. In the case that the number of soldiers in the Jinshan Divine Kingdom is less than ten times the number of dragon hunting disciples, absolutely do not fight hard and do not fight.
