Chapter 469: A New Situation
Zhang Xiaotian and Zhan Tai took the lead in shaking away the Dark Dragon Source masters who were besieging them, and then only shouted, and then led people to kill the periphery, retreating to the direction of the demon domain, the speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they had already appeared thousands of miles away, and they were still moving away, and their figures gradually became blurred, and they could no longer catch up.
Behind Zhang Xiaotian and them were nearly a million snow demon armies that fled in a hurry, these people had different cultivations, and they retreated slower than Zhang Xiaotian and Zhan Tai, and their speed was naturally not as fast as them, and they were soon caught up.
After all, the retreat of the combined forces of the two Snow Demons was too sudden, and many people couldn't react, and after hearing Zhang Xiaotian and Zhan Tai's orders, they saw others running, so they shocked their opponents and fled, and they missed a point in the first opportunity.
Therefore, under the cover of the soldiers of the Dark Dragon Source, under the fierce pursuit of more than two million troops, where can anyone who runs slowly escape, he will be killed directly.
It's just that when the generals of the Dark Dragon Source led the army to chase down the already destroyed Huluba Mountain Range, although there were still some soldiers from the Snow Demon Two Countries who were bitten by them.
However, before the generals of the Dark Dragon Source could figure out the situation, countless firebombs suddenly flew from the direction of the combined forces of the two Snow Demon countries that had fled earlier.
These fireballs all beckoned to them, and their formation was instantly disrupted, and they lost the object of their pursuit, and had to stop.
Needless to say, these fire bombs were sent by the reinforcements of the two Snow Demons, and they came to pick up Zhang Xiaotian and Zhan Tai, because they did not rush up to fight with the army of Dark Dragon Source, but used fire bombs to stop the footsteps of the army and help Zhang Xiaotian and Zhan Tai retreat.
At this time, they successfully joined forces, and there were many people in total, and the equipment was the most sophisticated, and some of them had not been in battle. Compared to the army of Dark Dragon Source, which was already a little tired, they had an advantage, and after the army of Dark Dragon Source dodged the rain of bullets, those generals did not let people chase after them, but reported the situation to Yu Hao.
After Yu Hao heard the news, he directly ordered the army to retreat. Don't fall in love with war, firstly, he will be poor and not chase, and secondly, he will already know that the result will be like this, so naturally there is no need to fight Zhang Yuefeng and them again, after all, it is not the time to fight with them.
In this battle, Dark Dragon Source can be said to have won a complete victory, with three million against five million, but its own side only lost more than 600,000 people, while the five main forces almost lost nearly four million.
Of the four million, three million were simply killed in a pit. was also killed by Qin Tianwang, Qin Tianwang, as the commander, ran around with the army, but he hadn't met the army led by Yu Hao yet, and he was directly annihilated, I have to say, wronged and stupid!
The other million was lost by Zhang Xiaotian and Zhan Tai, and the two of them only killed more than 600,000 in normal battles with the army led by Yu Hao. There are still more than 300,000 in the process of retreating, and many soldiers have no time to flee. Or escaped slowly, so was killed or captured.
This is also normal, because the retreat of the large army, especially when it falls into the downwind, is basically a rout, and the soldiers do not have any fighting spirit. If you only want to save your life and only want to escape, instead of thinking about how to defeat the other party, then in the face of a strong enemy's cover-up, the casualties will naturally be very serious.
Although Zhang Xiaotian and Zhan Tai hated it. But there is nothing they can do, they have never suffered such a defeat, and they all remember their hatred deeply in their hearts.
Similarly, more than 400,000 of the Dark Dragon Source's army were killed in the bloody battle, and the other 200,000 were killed when they were chasing the deserters of the two Snow Demon Mountains, and they were bombarded by fierce artillery fire in the original Huluba Mountain Range, so they died more than 200,000 people.
Fortunately, all this has passed, although the reinforcements from the country of ten thousand demons bombarded with firebombs in the distance for a while, blocking the pursuit of the Dark Dragon Source army, but they did not attack, but retreated to the demon domain in an orderly manner, closed the connection between the demon domain and other cities, and completely hid.
There is no way, the loss of the country of ten thousand demons this time is the most serious, the war is fought on its territory, Zhang Yuefeng sent troops on both sides, and basically sent out more than half of the troops of the country of ten thousand demons.
But at this time, only Zhang Xiaotian's 600,000 horses returned, plus the hundreds of thousands of people who stayed in the Demon Domain, and the sparse hundreds of thousands of horses added up by all the other cities, a total of less than 2 million, which can be described as a serious loss.
Now if they want to firmly control the entire southern Xinjiang, no, the entire country of ten thousand demons is no longer possible, they don't have so many troops, they don't have such a strong strength, if they are scattered and stationed, then I'm afraid it won't be long before their men and horses will be eaten up by those forces in the local area who are not convinced of them, so that the entire country of ten thousand demons will fall apart and completely disintegrate, Zhang Yuefeng naturally won't do this.
Moreover, Zhang Yuefeng knew very well that the royal family of their country of ten thousand demons had never been merciful to the entire territory and the surrounding neighboring forces, and had never regarded them as anything else, they had been suppressed, bullied, formed a lot of grudges, and had many hostile forces.
Although the strength of these forces is not as strong as that of Dark Dragon Source and Jiuding Mountain, they usually do not dare to compete with the royal family of the country of ten thousand demons, and they have been holding back, but at this time, they will no longer be afraid, and they will definitely take a bite if they have the opportunity.
Therefore, Zhang Yuefeng had to put down his subordinates, and had to concentrate all the remaining forces of the Ten Thousand Demon Country into the Demon Domain, and with the help of the Super Great Array of the Demon Domain, he could resist all foreign enemies.
The super array of the demon domain is very good, it is the common effort of the ancestor of the country of ten thousand demons, as well as the strong people of the country of ten thousand demons from generation to generation, although it is not as powerful as the formation arranged by the sword ancestor himself in the dark dragon source, but the general army and masters are unbreakable, at least they have to use a lot of strength to achieve it.
At this time, the continent does not have this condition, otherwise the Great Demon Kingdom could fight with the army of ghosts for so long with only one demon capital, and it was indeed difficult to break.
At this time, in addition to the Immortal Kingdom, the Great Demon Country, the Snow Country, and the Blue Wolf Country were all in a similar situation to the Ten Thousand Demon Country, and they also took corresponding measures to retreat and stay in obscurity, waiting for a new opportunity.
It can be said that Huang Shengtian was completely pitted by Zhang Yuefeng this time, because the two of them were closest to the Dark Dragon Source and had the greatest fear of the Dark Dragon Source, so this time they seized the opportunity, and both of them did their best, but they were also tossed enough. had to be restrained and sharp, and be a man with his tail between his legs.
And the Great Demon Kingdom was already weak, and its strength had not recovered much, and it was made again, and the situation was the worst, and its strength was even weaker.
But there is a situation in the Great Demon Kingdom that other countries do not have. That is, when the Ghost Snake army invaded, in that land of the East, not only the Great Demon Kingdom suffered the heaviest losses, but other forces were also devastated, and they could not pose a threat to the Great Demon Kingdom.
It's just that the Great Demon Kingdom doesn't have so many soldiers, and it has only occupied a few cities near the Demon Capital, and it doesn't care about other places, and other places have long been abandoned. This time, the contraction action is minimal.
And the most crying in the five countries is the Blue Wolf Country, when Yu Hao returns, the killing started from the Blue Wolf Country, and the national strength of the Blue Wolf Country is not much stronger than the Great Demon Country.
Moreover, although Fu Tuqing and the latter group of some Blue Wolf Country masters who followed Qin Tianwang to chase and kill Yu Hao are still alive, because they don't return, they are actually equal to nothing.
Among the five kingdoms, the Immortal Kingdom was the luckiest this time. Because they sent the fewest men, and the battlefield was not on their own soil. Their losses are still within acceptable limits.
It's just that in view of the fact that the other four countries are already weak and can't and won't join forces with them to deal with Yu Hao and Jiuding Mountain in a short period of time, Qin Xiangyue also ordered his forces to shrink a little and give up some cities. took the initiative to throw a pie to those forces who were staring at the land of the Immortal Kingdom.
Although this is detrimental to the majesty, it is a good delaying tactic and can reduce some trouble for the immortal kingdom.
Only the Immortal Kingdom is not consuming with those forces that have been on the table at this time, as long as it retains its strength and concentrates its resources. Like the others, recover quickly, and sooner or later they will be able to regain what they have lost.
Because although those Shigong families picked up a bargain in this battle, their influence has greatly increased, but their foundation is too weak, and their comprehensive strength is not too strong.
Therefore, they are definitely not the main enemies of the Five Kingdoms, the main enemies of the Five Kingdoms will never change, and they will always be the Dark Dragon Source, including Jiuding Mountain.
Moreover, the people of the five countries are very confident that after their strength is restored, as long as they move their fingers, they will be able to eliminate those momentary strengths one by one, so they are not worried.
Because as long as the five countries consume a lot of resources in their own countries at all costs, constantly look for talented people, and formulate some encouraging policies, they can basically artificially create a large number of masters to supplement their losses.
After all, the five countries are so big, rich in resources, and full of talents, it is very easy to artificially create a group of useful masters.
Many geniuses are unable to go further because of a lack of resources, and they have been stuck in a certain realm, as long as the five countries help them from the treasury, they will be able to get out of this predicament.
As for why he usually doesn't do this, it's because out of selfishness, no one in the vested interest group wants others to be better than himself, even if others are better than themselves, as long as they don't have their own conditions, then he will look down on others and suppress others.
The second is that the masters on the continent must be limited to a certain range and maintain a balance, otherwise the limited resources on the continent will be easily exhausted.
The masters are not ordinary people, and the damage caused by their fight is too great, and it will cause irreversible damage to the mainland, so the five countries did not do so when they were relatively peaceful.
In fact, don't talk about the Five Kingdoms, so is the Dark Dragon Source.
Moreover, although Dark Dragon Source won this time, its own strength was weaker than that of Jiuding Mountain, so naturally it was impossible to forcibly collect its own results, otherwise the fish would not be eaten, and it might be choked by the sting.
Therefore, on the one hand, Yu Hao ordered the army to quickly clean up the battlefield and bring back all the things that were still useful, and on the other hand, he issued a large retreat order, withdrawing all the armies of Dark Dragon Source to several cities near Longwu City, and stationed here for a long time, which can be regarded as reaping a small part of the results.
In addition, Yu Hao also contacted those friends who had helped him a lot, and asked them all to come to the Dark Dragon Source to get together, and he wanted to put on a good celebration banquet to show his gratitude.
If this matter had been put in the past, then those friends might have been afraid of the five main forces, so they would not dare to go to the banquet, at least not dare to go to the banquet with great fanfare.
But this time it's different, Yu Hao has already beaten the five countries to the point of being too weak to take care of himself, where there is still strength and strength to threaten them, they are naturally not afraid.
Including the Xue family, the Zhao family, the Ethereal Palace, as well as the Chen family, the Luo family, etc., all made it clear that they would send heavyweights to come.
Among them, the Xue Zhao family, as well as the Ethereal Palace, really helped Yu Hao a lot, while Chen Luo and other forces came to the banquet because the Dark Dragon Source now has the upper hand and is one of the best forces on the mainland, so they can't be offended.
Similarly, if you really want to say that all of them are forces that have helped, then those who did not directly intervene in the battle between the Dark Dragon Source and the Five Kingdoms can actually be regarded as a great help.
But no matter what the reason is, the five countries are silent in unison, and some influential palace families on the mainland are not afraid of pressure to go to the Dark Dragon Source to go to the banquet to give the Dark Dragon Source face, and ignore the grudges of the Five Kingdoms, the confrontation between the Five Kingdoms and the Dark Dragon Source has actually been regarded as a reversal.
This reversal is that the identities of the five countries have changed from offensive to defensive, from hunter to prey, and a new situation has once again emerged. (To be continued.) )
