Chapter 47: Winter in the Southern Plains
On the first day of the attack, the Celestial Empire army lost 500 soldiers and more than 10,000 soldiers were wounded. As for the results of the battle, it is to consume a large number of cannonballs, arrows and other items in the 'Fire Cloud' City.
For twenty consecutive days, the Celestial Empire army has been using low-intensity siege methods, causing many casualties to the defenders of 'Fire Cloud' City. Wen Yuan and the others also had no choice but to choose this trick, after all, if they could obtain the 'Fire Cloud' City by relatively mild means, it would be much easier than completely destroying it and rebuilding the wall by themselves.
The fame of Long Feng and Genu gradually rang out, and Long Feng's fame lies in the fact that he always uses all kinds of vile and dirty means to use magic. The defenders of Huoyun's city have caused countless troubles, and occasionally these spells will also affect the Celestial Empire camp, so that almost everyone can avoid him from afar; Gnu has almost become a perfect image of the god of war, he participated in a siege battle, a person carrying a shield and a big sword rushed up the city tower, killing seven generals of the opposing side, killing and wounding more than 300 soldiers, but unfortunately the follow-up troops were completely suppressed, and they were not able to rush to the head of the city to seize that section of the city wall, and Long Feng, who was afraid of exposing his strength too much, split a small lightning bolt for Gnu from afar, so that Gnu almost lost his armor and escaped from the city wallγ
However, only this performance has made Gnu a hero among the soldiers of the Celestial Empire, although there is still a certain gap between the strength of the internal force and several famous generals of the Celestial Empire, but his fierce and fearless combat style makes almost all the generals sigh behind their backs and say: "It is really a painful thing to let people fight against a beast." β
Yang Tian, who had nothing to do, also fell into a lot of fame, of course, the color of this reputation was not very good-looking: under the arrangement of Long Feng and Finse, who deliberately wanted to see the excitement, Yang Tian found one of the few residents in the nearby town who did not flee to the Southern Plains, and was about to be annihilated on the spot when she was pulled up by the soldiers of the Military Discipline Department. After Wen Yuan, who was embarrassed, reprimanded him sharply, he gave Yang Tian a punishment of ten military sticks that was not light or heavy, which made all the magnates of the Western subject countries very jealous of the special treatment Yang Tian received.
The wind blowing through Yang Tian's head had already brought a hint of chill, and Long Feng said boredly behind him: "This is not good, although this city is almost defeated, but I am always a little frightened." β
Yang Tian, who had seen the real blood battle scene, asked him with a slightly mature look: "Is there anything wrong? We still have an absolute advantage now?" The 'Fire Cloud' city is about to be conquered, and if we repair the city wall a little, we can spend the winter here comfortably, and when the spring begins, we can cooperate with the water army, and we can give the people of the Black Cloud Empire on this plain a good look...... What's wrong?"
Long Feng looked at the catapult that was weakly throwing the boulder at the head of the city in the distance, and whispered, "It's because it's too much delay." The army of more than three million people, if it is forcibly pushed, it can also be pushed to the city near here, but Wen Yuan, this kid has too many concerns, so he is still entangled with the 'Fire Cloud' City, if the Great Commander of the Black Cloud Empire here is desperate, the trouble is the army of the Celestial Empire. β
Yang Tian didn't speak, in his mind, although what Long Fengxiang said was very reasonable, he really couldn't see anything wrong with the situation. The Celestial Empire's coalition army is 3.37 million, and the Black Cloud Empire's regular army here is only 3 million, deducting those soldiers who have been beheaded, there are about 2.2 million left. The enemy army at sea, according to the generals of the Celestial Empire, should have been driven back, right?
Long Feng didn't speak, and from the air, he vaguely felt something unpleasant. His spiritual cultivation is getting higher and higher, and he has begun to have the instinct to sense danger that is unique to certain small creatures. He was keenly aware of the improvement of his abilities, but he could not grasp the specific situation. The people on Yang Wei's side seem to have something wrong and haven't been in normal contact with him for more than ten days...... Long Feng thought about it, anyway, according to his own strength, he could protect Yang Tian's surname no matter what, and the rest was no longer his consideration.
Night, secretly, came.
There was a sudden stirring in the southern camp, and the soldiers who had been waiting for the camp suddenly woke up, raised their torches, and searched for a small group of people who were said to have rushed into the camp.
The Chinese army in the northern camp was also immediately brightly lit, and after a while, the entire camp of the Celestial Empire coalition army was mobilized, cautiously observing the 'Huoyun' city ten miles away.
For a long time, for a long time, the raging fire suddenly burned from the 'Fire Cloud' city, and the city was densely covered with Black Cloud Empire soldiers with hideous faces, and they brought all the strong men in the city to the city, and then in the blood rain in the sky, the heads of those men were cut off by the soldiers with snowy broadswords behind them, and the corpses were mercilessly pushed down under the city wall, and then, there was another group of men.
Some brave men began to resist, but they were immediately shot into hedgehogs by the archers, and several men with good skills jumped off the city wall, and ran towards the camp of the Celestial Empire with their sprained thighs, and just after struggling a dozen steps, they were turned into fireballs by the magicians at the head of the city.
Yang Tian and Long Feng brought Fense, and Gnu sneaked into the Chinese army, in this weird situation, it is still the safest in the Chinese army with the most masters, this is also Yang Tian's first reaction after Long Feng continued to instill the creed of safety first to Yang Tian, as for the 80,000 elites under their hands, they didn't bother to pay attention to it at all, their own surname is the most important, isn't it?
Wen Yuanzheng and his subordinates observed the changes in the 'Huoyun' City, muttered to themselves, and asked as if asking the people around them: "What do you say, what are they doing?
Qi Zhantian frowned and said: "Impossible, if the people are in turmoil, there should be some omen, so suddenly the fire is raging, and all the elites are slaughtered, it's a bit weird." And there doesn't seem to be much movement in the city, so I really can't figure out what the problem is. β
Long Feng made it bad, and said maliciously: "It is said that some evil magic requires a large amount of human blood and soul as a sacrifice to the demon king when it is used.
The mages near the Chinese army changed their faces one by one, desperately remembering whether they had seen relevant information in any classics, but the more things they recalled, the more ugly their faces became, and the strange atmosphere made all the generals of the Chinese army a little uneasy.
Wen Yuan quickly gave an order: "Order all battalions, be careful." If there is any confusion, it will not be counted. β
More than a dozen bald-headed black-clothed monks slowly walked out of several tents near the Chinese army, their faces were extremely pale, they were the apostles of the Great Black Heavenly God Sect, but they were not very clear about the Western magic system, so they naturally couldn't tell what the other party was busy with, so they had to come out regardless of their own existence, and first protect Wen Yuan and other important people before anything else.
The wind slowly blew from the side of Fire Cloud City, sending bursts of heat and the smell of popcorn. Long Feng took a deep breath and said a little nostalgically: "It's so fragrant, it's so fragrant, it's so fragrant." β
Wen Yuan turned his head curiously and asked him, "Mr. Long Feng, what is popcorn?"
Long Feng immediately came to his senses, and explained in detail: "The simpler method is to put corn, rice or something in an iron cylinder, add a little sugar, and then seal it, put it on the fire and grill, and constantly rotate the iron cylinder so that the rice and corn inside will not be baked, and it is also convenient for the sugar to stick together with the rice more evenly, and this thing will be ...... after it comes out of the pot."
Wen Yuan and the others, who were already pale, didn't bother to listen to Long Feng's further explanation, and Wen Yuan shouted angrily: "Order, all camps, prepare to fight, be careful of the enemy soldiers breaking through." β
Long Feng stopped his mouth and whispered to Yang Tian: "Eh, the reaction is a little slower, you should have known a long time ago, killing all the strong men, so that you don't have enough people familiar with geography to use, burning up the grain and grass, see how you survive the winter, and then, even if the whole army breaks through, even if you can't rush out, you have to be injured a few more, see how you play this winter." β
Yang Tian gloated and whispered: "You deserve it, look at the people they underestimate the Black Cloud Empire, if they are forced to be in a hurry, just come and scatter and see how you play." β
The lights on the city walls were gradually extinguished, and the permanent population of the city of 'Huoyun' was no more than a million, and now more than 200,000 men had been slaughtered, and the corpses were piled up all over the land below the city walls, and the highest place was almost parallel to the city walls.
The military horses of the Celestial Empire silently arranged their defensive formations, preparing to resist the death-threatening breakthrough action of the defenders of 'Huoyun' City. Although it is not known which direction they will choose to break out, if they are in a hurry to merge their large forces, they will choose the south, which is the easiest way to break out. Therefore, although Wen Yuan ordered all the camps to be prepared, only the people in the southern battalion were really nervous, and several elite troops were quickly transferred from the nearby camp, ready to deal a head-on blow to the enemy.
The four gates of 'Huoyun' City were wide open, and black soldiers poured out of the city like a tide.
Wen Yuan frowned: "Damn, in order to cover the surprise attack of his large army, he actually sacrificed some soldiers as bait, which direction did they choose?"
In front of the Chinese army's tent, more than 20 new artillery pieces have been slightly raised, ready to deal a devastating blow to the charging enemy. The 30,000 crossbowmen also aimed their crossbows at the sky.
The four breakout armies rushed desperately at almost the same speed, so that the large battalions in all four directions of the Celestial Empire began to pour death into their ranks almost simultaneously. The soldiers who rushed out of the north gate were particularly miserable, and the power of the new artillery was unimaginable, and often with a burst of fire, hundreds of soldiers who were densely clustered together disappeared without a trace. The survivors rushed desperately towards the Celestial Empire camp, and they were greeted by the raindrops of repeating crossbow arrows.
The 'Fire Cloud' defenders in the other three directions were left with few corpses left after the first wave of blows, with tens of thousands of corpses piled up on the ground in each direction. Only the north city gate, which was facing the direction of the Chinese army, continued to rush in the direction of the Chinese army's tent. Many soldiers did not have time to get out of the city gates, so they simply jumped off the city wall and clashed over the corpses like hills.
Yang Tian sighed and said, "Fortunately, we are still ten miles away from the first camp here, no matter how powerful they are, they can't rush over, right?" Long Feng nodded again and again, Genu desperately held his big sword and stood behind Yang Tian, while the other Celestial Dynasty generals gave Yang Tian a blank look, but withdrew their gaze in the fierce eyes of Wen Yuan and Qi Zhantian.
The cannons that were hastily lifted out, after firing ten shells from each cannon, could no longer be fired, and even the crossbowmen's crossbow arrows were all shot, and more than 30,000 corpses were densely lined up in front of the camp, but more than 200,000 soldiers of the Black Cloud Empire had already rushed up and began to frantically chop the horses, wooden fences and other items in front of the camp.
The soldier armed with the 'Thorn Dragon Lance' stepped forward and mercilessly stabbed the spear into the chests of the Black Cloud Empire soldiers outside Zhang Xu Kai. Countless Black Cloud soldiers swarmed in, pushing the corpses of their comrades in front of them, and pounding the fragile fence. On the Celestial Empire side, three or four soldiers used a spear at the same time, stabbing it violently, and the sharp spear head pierced the bodies of four or five soldiers stacked on top of each other, and then retracted violently, followed by another stabbing blow after accelerating over a long distance.
The faces of the generals of the Great Tent of the Chinese Army were much more relaxed, according to this situation, the soldiers on the Black Cloud side would not have time to rush into the camp at all, and they would die at the hands of these elite pikemen. At the same time, several elite troops have rushed out from the large battalions in other directions, outflanking the rear road of this Black Cloud army, and the southern battalion has sent 200,000 troops, ready to rush directly into the city to rescue grain and grass.
Gnu suddenly shouted: "Eh, there are more and more dead people, they can stand on the corpses and jump into the camp, those fences are only more than one person high, it's not difficult to jump over." β
As soon as he finished speaking, countless black shadows stood on the pile of corpses, and they jumped into the camp frantically, their steel knives slashing against their spears. The pikemen were so frightened that they dropped their spears and retreated to the rear, only to have already been cut down by a thousand.
The Black Cloud soldiers, who had already clashed into the camp, ignored the retreating pikemen, and desperately cut down the fence, pushed the logs, and let their companions in the rear. No sooner had they turned back than the red-eyed pikemen had regrouped their equipment and stabbed them together with their companions who had rushed into the camp in high spirits.
The generals who stood on the hill in front of the Chinese tent and watched the scene shook their heads, and one of the generals concluded: "Very elite soldiers, much more powerful than what we have encountered before." β
The exclamation on his side had not yet fallen, and hundreds of thousands of Black Cloud soldiers had already rushed into the camp under the leadership of the generals, and they were entangled with the soldiers of the Celestial Empire. The soldiers of the Celestial Empire Alliance, who clearly had the advantage of manpower, poured out from between the tents, surrounded the group of soldiers, and then gradually divided them.
Just when the soldiers began to gather, the magicians who had been hiding in the Black Cloud Soldiers, barely keeping up with this raid, gathered their energy frantically, and then began a crazy self-explosion in the densest place of the Celestial Empire coalition soldiers. A magician can make at least three hundred or so soldiers lose their own combat effectiveness, and then the black cloud soldiers who pounced on them unceremoniously cut off a part of their limbs.
Wen Yuan slammed his fist on the flagpole in front of him, and in the exclamation of the generals, his fist exploded with a ball of blood. Qi Zhantian roared angrily: "Order, open the distance, shoot them mongrels, quickly, now the distance is not enough, just shoot those in their crowd." β
The high-ranking archers were instructed and began to show their might gradually, and now the Black Cloud soldiers, although separated, were roughly gathered into five large corps, and bows and arrows rained down, causing heavy casualties to the soldiers in their center.
The commander of 'Huoyun' City slashed more than a dozen elite soldiers of the 'Tiger Wolf Army' with blood-red eyes, and roared angrily towards the big tent of the Chinese army flying high with the colorful dragon flag, and the soldiers who entangled him on the road did not have a single enemy. The other generals who could intercept him were blocked by the dense soldiers, and they could only watch the madness as he flew countless lanterns and torches along the way, lit countless tents, and killed the Chinese army.
Long Feng whispered to Yang Tian and said, "Have you seen it? If it is possible in the future, do not tell the enemy your exact location." Otherwise, one shot can destroy you. β
Yang Tian also asked him in a low voice, "Then, if the soldiers don't know where I am, won't they be demoralized?"
Long Feng said irresponsibly: "Then, let a few substitutes run around with your banner, and you can even cultivate a few stand-ins...... Anyway, as long as you're safe, you don't care what else he says. Yang Tian, who felt deeply reasonable, hurriedly nodded and agreed.
Wen Yuan had already ordered: "Let that enemy general come over, who will kill the enemy for Ben Shuai?"
The military commanders shouted loudly, and the order was passed over, and all the soldiers on the road abandoned the brave 'Fire Cloud' city commander one after another, and went straight to the place where the Black Cloud soldiers were besieged. More than a dozen special generals were overjoyed when they saw the hunt, and they rushed towards the commander.
The Lord of the Fire Cloud City flew to the bottom of the hill where everyone was standing, and rushed straight up the hill despite the weapons that the generals swung at his body. Those generals scolded fiercely and withdrew their weapons, after all, asking a dozen of them to join forces to kill an enemy general who did not resist was not something they could do with arrogance.
Long Feng grunted dissatisfiedly, raised his hand and slashed out a wind blade, a thick wind blade with a length of three zhang roared and destroyed all the flagpoles, wooden fences and other items on the road, and slashed at the 'Fire Cloud' city commander who had begun to lose his consciousness. There was no room for resistance, and the menacing warrior was tossed into a puddle of flesh by the wind blade and sprinkled on the ground.
Wen Yuan looked at Long Feng with a little surprise, Long Feng forced out a cold sweat on his face, and snorted and complained: "Damn, Lao Tzu is afraid that he will hurt His Highness, so he desperately sent out such a wind blade, but he really used up his strength to give birth to a child." Wen Yuan nodded in understanding and withdrew his gaze, after all, in Wen Yuan's little knowledge of Western magic, he vaguely knew that the mage could forcibly send out a force that he could not bear in some way, and in the Eastern Continent, it seemed to be called something disintegration.

After a night's commotion, all the soldiers who broke through the Black Cloud Empire were killed, and more than 2,000 soldiers surrendered, but several Celestial Empire generals who were resentful because of the many casualties among their men simply ordered to be beheaded along with them.
The Northern Battalion of the Celestial Empire Coalition Army suffered more than 80,000 casualties, and most of them were seriously wounded. However, the defenders of 'Huoyun' City were all wiped out, and among their corpses, more than a dozen big men wearing strange tight black leather armor were found, and the situation before and after should be that they conveyed the order of the Black Cloud Empire's commander in the Southern Plains, so that 'Huoyun' City destroyed all the items that could be used by the Celestial Empire coalition forces and broke through the siege.
The results of the warehouse inspection made Wen Yuan's heart feel a heavy lead, and the grain and grass that was expected to supply the army for a year had been almost burned, leaving behind a lot of what Long Feng called popcorn.
Because the shock brought by the desperate breakthrough of the defenders of 'Huoyun' City has not passed, more unfavorable news has come one after another. The cavalry troops separately monitored the nine nearby cities, burned all the grain and grass, only part of it was taken away by the garrison, and swept all the soft in the city, and abandoned the city where they were stationed overnight.
The cavalry team, whose strength was not much different from theirs, did not dare to pursue rashly, and after following them from a distance for a while, they found that they seemed to be retreating purposefully, so they had to stop the pursuit, and after a little inventory of the treasury of the abandoned city, they could only reluctantly turn back to the camp.
The rangers sent to the hinterland of the Southern Plain to investigate also reluctantly sent back information: the military headquarters of the Black Cloud Empire in the Southern Plains gathered all the garrisons and the rangers outside, and set up a large camp near the port of 'Shuiyun', a port city on the southern continent, which tasted like a decisive battle with the army of the Celestial Empire.
Wen Yuan, who was troubled by these unfavorable news, finally received an urgent secret report that surprised everyone. The secret letter sent by the secret camp master of the sea fleet overnight said that the power system of the new warship had a fatal weakness, and it had suffered heavy losses in the battle to block the sea line of communication, and it was no longer able to stop the reinforcement of the Black Cloud Empire to the Southern Plain. Fortunately, the warships of the Celestial Empire rushed to re-blockade the strait, but about a million or so recruits from the Black Cloud Empire had already sailed to the Southern Plains.
Just when all the high-level people were discussing the military plane in the Chinese military tent, Yang Tian and Long Feng sneaked out.
Yang Tian said with a smile: "It was a good plan, but unfortunately there are unforeseen circumstances, and there is a big trouble...... Their main army is about the same number as ours, and they at least have a lot of food and grass to eat. We're going to have a lot of fun, maybe we won't be able to get through this winter, and we'll starve to death. β
Long Feng said indifferently: "What are you afraid of, no matter how many people starve to death, they won't starve us." As for whether it can win the war, it depends on how the army of the Celestial Empire handles it. Anyway, there is no way to get through the Boulder Wilderness now, and now we have to spend the winter in Firecloud or any other city. β
Yang Tian thought about it, took out a gold coin and said, "Let's bet and see who can bet accurately." I guess we're going to attack their camp while we still have the advantage of our forces, you say?"
Long Feng unceremoniously snatched his gold coin, and said with a big grin: "You are decided, if it is in a large area, if it is the entire Southern Plain, three million troops against three million troops, spread evenly on the ground, there are not many soldiers on each unit of land." Or maybe they defend the city, we attack the city, I think Wenyuan will attack desperately...... The problem is that now they have set up a big camp, and if we attack, we will simply fight for who has the most men, and in the end, the one who wins is the one with the most people...... Don't forget that they still have more than a million reinforcements coming soon, and we may not be able to win then...... Even if he wins this battle, if he loses millions of troops, Wen Yuan will not have a good time going back, and the idiot will fight hard. β
Yang Tian was dumbfounded, so he couldn't hide his reluctance to give up the piece of gold coin in Long Feng's hand, and said slowly: "Miscalculation, it's because I didn't think it through, but I can't say that I lack anything." β
Long Feng comforted him and said, "It's okay, at most, it's just that you don't have enough experience." Anyway, it has nothing to do with us, if the Celestial Empire coalition wins, we will secretly make a little military merit. If they lose, we will immediately open the way and leave, I don't believe that there is a monster like Gnu to open the way, and the soldiers of the Black Cloud Empire can stop us. β
Yang Tian and Long Feng, a pair of people who didn't seem to know what a sense of responsibility was, laughed strangely. Long Feng was very upset with himself in his heart, in fact, he was not such a person, but since someone asked him to cultivate Yang Tian into such a bastard, he could only be a bastard.

All the high-ranking people of the western vassal countries were abandoned outside, and the Celestial Empire military made their own decision, looting all the grain and grass that could be found nearby, leaving only the remaining local people with food that could barely be mixed with the winter, and the Celestial Empire army slowly forced towards the 'Shuiyun' port, stationed in an arc in the six cities of 'Tianfeng', 'Tianyun', 'Tianshui', 'Heiyue', 'Heiyun' and 'Heiyan', forming a blockade line for the camp of the Black Cloud Empire fifty miles away.
In fact, in this way, as long as the Celestial Empire army can hold this defense line, it is equivalent to announcing the loss of the Black Cloud Empire's possible influence on the entire Western Continent, and what they have now is nothing more than a piece of land more than five hundred miles long and wide outside the 'Shuiyun' Port.
Wen Yuan was very optimistic that the situation was not very bad, at least inexplicably they were close to the ultimate goal of this plan. Although it is said that the current situation of the Celestial Empire army is not very good, Wen Yuanda thinks that as long as it survives this winter, everything will be fine. The only thing to do now is to organize the remnants of the people to prepare for the sowing of seeds after the beginning of spring.
Long Feng took the opportunity to teach Yang Tian a lesson: "The common people can be used as cannon fodder desperately when they are fighting, but if you really want to carry on the war, you can't use them well, it's still not good." But now the hope of winning the war lies in those old and small people...... The Black Cloud Empire's hand is still enough, slaughtering so many elite laborers, if it weren't for us bringing some servants over, next year will be spring, and we will be ready to go hungry. β
Yang Tian looked at the vast land outside the 'Heavenly Wind' city and nodded constantly.
Long Feng sighed and said, "It's a pity that the Black Cloud Empire doesn't seem to understand this truth, they have controlled the Southern Plains for more than ten years, and it seems that the population has not increased much. If they desperately encourage childbearing, there used to be more than 30 million people, but now there can be at least 60 million people, at least it is much easier for them to recruit soldiers. β
Wen Yuan's voice suddenly came and said, "According to our information, it seems that the Black Cloud Empire does not allow people they regard as a lowly race to enter their army, saying that it is to maintain the noble bloodline of their army. β
Looking at Wen Yuan and the others who were slowly approaching, Long Feng scolded: "They are idiots, as long as they can hold weapons, those who can kill the other party's soldiers are qualified soldiers, what kind of bullshit blood...... Could it be that people born into nobles have one more bird than ordinary people?"
Wen Yuan sighed a few times and didn't speak. After all, there are also differences between dignitaries and ordinary people within the Celestial Empire, and it is difficult for him to answer Long Feng's radical and vulgar comments.
Yang Tianke didn't have these realizations, and asked Wen Yuan directly: "Dashuai, how long can we eat our current grain?"
Wen Yuan's face was a little unsightly, and he said in a low voice: "Your Highness, I won't hide it from you, we don't have much grain and grass with us, plus the grain we have scavenged now, it is only enough for us to use for more than two months." However, if it is time to sow the seeds properly, it will take at least four months...... Eh, if it is on the ground of the Heavenly Empire, they can sow seeds there four times a year, and they will not have this kind of trouble. Although this is the southern plain of the western continent, geographically referring to the Liuhua continent, it is only the central south of the continent, and the climate is not too warm and humid. β
Yang Tian shouted: "Isn't that that why we won't have anything to eat in more than two months?"
Wen Yuan hurriedly nervously stopped him and said, "Be quiet, be quiet." We can just know these situations, and we must not let the soldiers know. There will always be food, but if the army is distracted, we can't do anything. β
Long Feng said with a smile: "So I know that I won't be able to start preparing the sowing plan now when the spring of next year will not be, that is, to calm the hearts of the army?" However, I don't understand, this time the advance plan is simply a mess, Marshal Wenyuan, you won't make such a mistake, right?"
Wen Yuan gritted his teeth, shook his head, didn't speak, and said in a low voice for a long time: "The problem is, I didn't expect the other party to counterattack us in such a broken way...... And the armies of sailors who swore that they could block their sea lanes...... Alas......"
Yang Tian, who deeply felt that the inside story was unclear, pulled the dragon wind, said goodbye to Wen Yuan, who looked depressed, and hurriedly slipped down the city wall. Long Feng estimated that Wen Yuan couldn't hear his words, and hurriedly told Yang Tian: "Remember, there must be some problems in the Celestial Empire now, and in the future, you have to find the right backer before making plans." β
Yang Tian nodded hurriedly and said carefully: "It seems that this time the problem is not small, using a new warship that has not been tested at all to attack the opponent's convoy, this ...... Moreover, I feel that these millions of troops are simply used by the cannon fodder you mentioned in the city, who can have such courage to throw all the elites into a war that may not be won at one time?"
Long Feng said in a deep voice: "Millions of elite troops, you seem unimaginable, but in the Celestial Empire, what is it? Millions of men, they can be trained in half a year's effort, and they don't care about it at all." It is too cost-effective to sacrifice millions of people for a chance to go down in history. β
Yang Tian nodded, suddenly shook his head again, sighed, and didn't know what he was thinking, so he rushed to the mansion arranged for the four of them with a somewhat lonely figure.
Long Feng also sighed, and kept calculating in his heart: "If this kid can't even see through the life and death of millions of people, how will he face a bigger scene in the future? β
The wind from the southern ocean blew slowly, and by the way, it sent the transport team of the Black Cloud Empire that showed some signs of ruin, and the Black Cloud recruits, who had been dizzy by the naval battle, scrambled to jump onto the land, raised their war knives, and let out a long breath.
The generals of the coalition forces listened to this piece of information with gloomy faces, and began to think about how to deal with this unfavorable situation. Especially when the scouts reported that the Black Cloud Empire's transport fleet had also brought a large amount of food, Wen Yuan and the others' faces became even more ugly.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Affected by the oppressive atmosphere of the generals, all the soldiers couldn't help but start to lose their morale, and vaguely felt that the development of things was not as prejudged as their own aspects.
Just when the army of the Black Cloud Empire was happily preparing to meet the army of the Celestial Empire, just when the morale of the army of the Celestial Empire was unstable and it was likely to be chaotic before the battle, the winter of the Southern Plains finally arrived. The temperature began to slowly drop, the air began to dry out, the wind changed direction, and the violent cold wind blowing from the boulder field replaced the damp warm wind blowing from the sea, and the land began to freeze slowly, and if a puddle of blood dripped up, it would not be long before it turned into a large block of red ice.
It was in this dreary atmosphere that the Celestial Empire coalition forces adopted the plan proposed by Long Feng to harass the other party with all their might, and began the first organized guerrilla war for the sake of guerrilla warfare on the planet, which appeared in a national war.
