The place where the two armies met was a shocking scene. The ground was covered in a thick layer of Sektor corpses. Even Maccon and the others, who had expected this, were stunned, not to mention the players who had followed along.
Li Huailin was sitting on top of the pile of corpses. He was bored from waiting, so he wondered if he should summon the corpses to attack Hildeirs City. However, he gave up on the idea. After all, the corpses he resurrected weren't his summoned creatures. They only had a good impression of him, but Byakee was a god they worshipped. It was hard to say who they would side with in the future. After becoming undead, it would be a little difficult to kill them. Their military strength should be enough, so there was no need to take the risk.
"Your Majesty." Just then, Maccon came over.
"Too slow." Li Huailin stood up immediately. "I told you to arrive at noon. What time is it now? Are you looking for trouble?"
"I'm sorry, it's my responsibility," McCann replied, standing at attention.
"Forget it. Let's go now." Li Huailin didn't want to pursue the matter, so he waved his hand.
"But Your Majesty, there's a Sektor troop behind us. If they catch up …" McCann said hesitantly.
"Don't we have international friends to help us stall them?" Li Huailin spread his hands.
"But this time, their main city is under attack. If they forcefully retreat …" McCann said, "Should we ambush them here for reinforcements?"
McCann was good at drawing inferences. After seeing Li Huailin's successful ambush, he thought that if he attacked the enemy's main city, the enemy would, of course, rush back to reinforce them. At that time, if he ambushed them again, wouldn't he be able to achieve a complete victory?
"Oh? You're good at coming up with ideas. " Li Huailin said with a smile. Yes, McCann's strategy had always been stable. He always fought head-on, and it was rare for him to come up with an ambush plan. "Your idea is worth encouraging, but I won't accept it this time. Try harder next time."
"Uh …" Macken put his hand on his forehead and said, "This … Can Your Majesty tell me why?"
"Because if we destroy the Sechtor troops, who's going to help us stall the American troops? Do you think these people are on our side?" Li Huailin said, "Don't worry about them. Let them play by themselves. We just need to attack Hildeirs."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Maccon also understood. It turned out that Li Huailin had never treated the troops of Willings City as his own.
Of course, Willings City had received the news as well. At this time, someone had taken a screenshot of such an exaggerated scene and posted it on the forum. Now, they almost understood that this was all Li Huailin's plan. The troops that were destroyed by Li Huailin were the troops of Hildeirs City. The other party did not send people to help them at all. Instead, they pretended that they were here to help, so that Hildeirs City would send reinforcements. Then, their goal was to destroy the reinforcements.
Once the reinforcements were destroyed, the next target of the Hua Xia District would, of course, be Hildeirs City. Hildeirs City was now very empty. First of all, the troops they had been fighting these days were of course the main force of the church. They could guess this without anyone telling them. Otherwise, how could they be so strong? Now that the main force of the church was delayed here by them, and the remaining reinforcements were also killed by the Hua Xia District. Was Hildeirs City not empty? Wouldn't the main force of the Hua Xia District be finished?
Now, they began to wonder if all this was planned by the people of the Hua Xia District because they also heard from their own NPCs that they were attacked from the sea when they landed. At first, they thought it was an attack by the Sechtor monsters, but there were no attacks from the sea in the past few days. If the Sechtor monsters did it, why would they stop after attacking once? Now that they thought about it, they wondered if this was also arranged by the people of the Hua Xia District. After all … they seemed to have done this before. The last time they tricked the East Asia District, they seemed to have used this method to trap the East Asia players and trap them in a city. Now that they thought about it … it seemed that they were in the same situation.
On the other hand, as soon as they logged in, they were greeted by such a large army. This seemed a bit too much of a coincidence. The NPCs definitely did not know that they had logged in. The only ones who knew were the players. Then, the people of the Hua Xia District must have told the Sechtor monsters? Or were they the ones who dragged the monsters here?
No matter how they guessed, they felt like they had been tricked. Now that they thought about it, they seemed to have been working for the people of the Hua Xia District. They used their numbers to help delay the main force of the Sechtor monsters, and then the final result seemed to have been handed over to the people of the Hua Xia District. This sounded like they were stupid donkeys.
Who would be willing to be stupid donkeys? It was not easy for them to understand that they had been tricked. What should they do now? The best way was, of course, to counterattack. Didn't you want us to delay the Sechtor monsters' troops? We won't do that. If they know that their main city is under attack, they will definitely rush back to support. We'll let them go and catch you off guard.
The idea was good, but the problem was … this method could not be implemented. The Sechtor monsters' troops would not listen to your arrangements, and the worst thing was that the NPCs here would not listen to your arrangements either. The biggest difference between the Hua Xia District and the Hua Xia District was that the NPCs over there were led by players. Then, it would not be a problem for them to come up with fancy tactics. But the players in the American Continent were just accessories to the NPCs. The NPCs there treated the players as the ones to charge in battle or the kind of existence that did casual labor. What kind of tactics were you talking about? Who cared about you?
Just like now, the group of guild leaders immediately reported this matter to the NPC commander here, but it was useless. The NPCs could not understand the players' thoughts at all. The purpose of their visit was to stop Byakee from destroying their continent because a pillar that spewed out black fog had also appeared on their continent. Now, the other troops were already attacking Hildears City. Was this not a good thing? As for what the players said about getting into the city first to trigger the main mission and the hidden rewards, what did it have to do with them?
What was even more unacceptable was that the players told them not to chase after the Sechtor monsters outside the city when they retreated and to let them go back to attack the troops in the Hua Xia District. What kind of godly reasoning was this? To the NPCs, it was simply inexplicable. The main city was attacked and forced to retreat. Why didn't you chase after them? Why did you let them go? Was there something wrong with your brain? Don't you understand the principle of taking advantage of someone's weakness to kill them? After all, this group of Sechtor monsters had killed many of their subordinates in the past few days. They hated this group of Sechtor monsters to the core and were looking for opportunities to take revenge. Now that the enemy's backyard was on fire, such a great opportunity for revenge, how could they let them go?
The Favorability of the guild leader who suggested this immediately dropped by 20 points. If the Favorability did not drop to Indifferent, he would probably have been arrested as an enemy spy. Even if they did not arrest him directly, the group of NPCs felt that these players did not have any strategy at all and did not intend to listen to their opinions anymore.
Therefore, even if the American players saw through the plan of the Hua Xia District, there was no way to deal with it. The group of players was really angry. They were really tricked and could not do anything about it. Immediately, many players went offline and then went to the forum to insult the players in the Hua Xia District.
On the church's side, the situation of the first and second regiments was also very awkward. Yes, not long after, they also received the latest information. First, their third legion was directly ambushed by the enemy on the way to rescue them and was completely wiped out. Combined with the previous information, they also knew that they had fallen into the enemy's trap. Now that their Holy City, Hildears, was under attack, of course, according to the church's orders, they should hurry back, but could they go back themselves?
In their opinion, the troops in the Willings City in front of them must be in the same group as the troops that were attacking their Holy City. The enemy must now be waiting for them to retreat. As long as they retreated, the enemy would definitely chase after them. When that time came, they would definitely suffer heavy losses. From the beginning, they had already seen a lot less soldiers on the city wall. What did this mean? The enemy had already prepared troops to go out of the city to chase after them, and there was no need to defend the city wall at all.
It was impossible for them to disobey the church's orders, so they must retreat. The plan now was to retreat slowly under the pursuit of the troops in Willings City, but it would definitely take a long time. Otherwise, they could retreat as fast as they could, but the losses would be very shocking. Neither of these options was a good choice, but was there a way to choose now?
The two legion commanders discussed for a while and finally decided that they should retreat slowly. Otherwise, they would collapse if they were to be chased all the way. As for the problem of time, they could only hope that the Holy City of Hildears could support them a little. After all, it was Hildears City, and there was definitely no problem with the city's defense. As for the defensive troops, they could only let the church temporarily organize them.
After the decision was made, the legion immediately began to execute. As expected, as soon as they started, the soldiers of Willings City followed up, looking like they were ready to attack at any time. On the other side, the battle of Hildearth City was progressing faster than they had expected.
