"How should we deal with those outside?"
His tone was calm, but it was filled with coldness.
Hu Qianqiu leaped onto the parapet of the stone castle and then spat out.
"What else can we do? Same old rules! Didn't the ruler say that it is best if those fellows have no way out, we can't be careless … "
Chai Zhou knew that this would happen, smiling slightly and nodding towards the few generals behind him.
Moments later, a large group of men and horses were chased out of the city.
The style of their armor wasn't the red of Gantian Mountain but the pure black of the Taishang army. Thousands of people were chased out to search for those Night Demons who still had a chance to live, killing them one by one.
Fifty to sixty of them attacked together and chopped them into meat paste.
At the same time, furious roars could be heard coming from the giant black mist, followed by sharp murderous intents.
Hu Zhongyuan laughed coldly, not bothering at all. He waited quietly for a moment and seeing that there was still no movement, he shook his head in disappointment, "It seems like today's matter is over. Heh! These useless things! "
In the past, each time he ordered the surrendered troops to slaughter the injured Night Demons, they would occasionally strike out in the day.
That was the situation he loved the most. Each time it happened, the Night Demons would suffer heavy casualties.
However, in the recent two months, such good things rarely happened.
Sighing softly, Hu Zhongyuan looked at the dilapidated fortress beneath him.
The protective spiritual array was almost completely destroyed. This stone castle was mostly flattened by the siege machines of the Night Demons.
If they defended, they could still last for half a day. However, if they continued to stay in the stone castle at night, they would be asking to die.
"Prepare to abandon the castle! Let the spirit masters work harder to level this place. "
Although it was a broken structure, if it fell into the hands of the Night Demons, it would be a problem.
Chai Zhou's pupils constricted as he looked behind him. At this moment, although there were still three hundred stone castles left, they were spread out on a hundred-mile battle line. They vaguely formed three lines, blocking the foot of the Seven Extremes Mountain.
During these few days, the Night Demons would break through a layer of their defensive line every two days.
Two days to break through a formation, if we retreat from here again. In at most six days, these Night Demons would reach the foot of the Seven Extremes Mountain!
"It's Kong Yao's idea! They say that our people are worth more than the land — "
Hu Zhongyuan snorted. He was still not used to calling that woman Inspector of the Left.
However, after a few months of continuous fighting, he had already acknowledged Kong Yao's ability in the depths of his heart.
To be able to maintain such a situation with such an inferior army, even Qiu Wei might not be able to do so if he was here.
If it were him, he would have been defeated long ago!
I originally thought that Jun Shang was captivated by this woman's beauty, but I didn't expect it to be Kong Yao. He was actually quite capable.
However, looking at the three months of intense battles, they only suffered around 200 thousand casualties. However, they lost close to a million Night Demons.
Hu Zhongyuan's eyes were filled with confusion for a moment.
What was the chance of victory in this battle?
As soon as he thought of it, Hu Zhongyuan subconsciously blurted it out.
"Chai Zhou, what do you think are our chances of winning?"
Actually, in his heart, he didn't hope to win. He just wanted to force the Night Demon army back and he would be satisfied.
Chai Zhou was startled when he heard that. Hu Zhongyuan was the main general of the left wing and if he said those words, it might shake the morale of the army.
However, shortly after, he broke out into laughter, saying emotionally, "Six days later, we will go all out! Even if we die, we will drag a few Night Demons down with us. As long as Jun Shang can escape, our Gantian Mountain will still be as stable as Mount Tai … "
When the few deputy generals heard that, their eyes didn't flicker at all, standing on the spot like javelins.
Hu Zhongyuan was startled when he heard that. Then, he laughed out loud, "That's right! This time, we will go all out and drag more Night Demons down! As long as Jun Shang is here, why do we need to worry? Chai Zhou, if I can make it back alive, I won't argue with your Chai Clan about the Xuanxing Bamboo Arrow in the Conference Hall! "
When Chai Zhou heard that, he didn't show any gratitude. Instead, he scolded out, "Who wants you to give it to us? My Chai Family will give up the Xuanxing Bamboo Arrow business … "
The Xuanxing Bamboo Arrow was the standard spiritual arrow of Gantian Mountain. However, Gantian Mountain was changing day by day and the army didn't use it. Even among the commoners, it was sold really early.
This was why the Chai Family didn't care.
Hu Zhongyuan laughed and didn't say a word. He still squinted as he looked at the black mist opposite him.
He, Hu Zhongyuan, still had six to seven days to live …
At this moment, he suddenly had an urge to get drunk.
Anyways, he was going to die, so it was okay to indulge once. To be able to follow Zong Shou to unify Donglin and experience so many exciting things. He had no regrets in this life …
※ ※ ※
"At most, seven to nine days!"
At this moment, in the clouds not far away from Seven Cloud Mountain, a green-robed Taoist said coldly.
If Zong Shou was here, he would be able to recognize this person. It was the Taoist who had clashed a few swords with him on Lianyun Island.
When he said those words, apart from Wuji, there were two other Taoists around thirty. They were all dressed in purple robes and gave off an extraordinary aura.
Behind the four of them, there were seven men who were also dressed in green robes and had long swords by their waists.
"Before this, I took the chance when the two armies were fighting to sneak in. Looking at the grain of the Night Demons, they could only last for four to five days. As for the Gantian Mountain army, they can at most last for six days. After six days, they will be wiped out under Seven Cloud Mountain. However, along with the reinforcements that are rushing over, they might be able to last longer … "
"Senior Master Minghui, speaking of which, doesn't this mean that Gantian Mountain has a high chance of winning?"
The one who replied was a middle-aged Taoist. At this moment, his eyes were filled with a weird expression.
For Zong Shou and the Gantian Mountain army to be able to last until now already shocked him.
When he heard the words of the green-robed Taoist, he found it even more unbelievable.
He wasn't good at the art of war, but he knew that if the Gantian Mountain Ruler could defend until the Night Demons ran out of grain and had no more strength to fight, Then they would most probably be able to win this battle.
"Three months of fighting, one attacking and one defending. The Night Demons only lost three hundred thousand men. However, Zong Shou has already lost a million and two hundred thousand men! "
When Minghui said this, he laughed coldly, "At this moment, Prince Jia Mingluo still has a million and six hundred thousand men!"
It could be said that the disparity was so great that it made one's heart palpitate.
The few people present all frowned and didn't say a word. As expected from a race that swept the Cloud World and controlled hundreds of worlds during the ancient times. The combat strength of these Night Demons was indeed shocking.
"I think they have no chance at all!"
Minghui shook his head and came to a conclusion. A light flashed in his eyes, "However, that Kong Yao is really surprising. I originally thought that the Monster King wouldn't be able to last for ten days. However, in the blink of an eye, three months have passed. This woman's ability to lead troops is really rare in the world! "
The moment he said this, even Wuji was speechless.
When Zong Shou made Kong Yao the Commander to lead the war matters of Gantian Mountain, everyone thought that the Ruler was charmed by her beauty and did something stupid. Or maybe this woman was just a decoration, a chess piece that Zong Shou was using to suppress the Generals of Gantian Mountain.
However, looking at it now, that person's ability to judge and use people made one exclaim in admiration once more.
Although they were at a disadvantage in the consecutive battles against the Night Demons. However, everyone knew in their hearts that this was a clever housewife trying to cook a meal without rice.
Although the situation was close to collapsing, it wasn't because of Kong Yao. Instead, it was because they had too few troops!
Although they lost, it was still a glorious defeat!
"I didn't expect this woman to be so talented! She isn't a talent who personally came to the battlefield but a person who is a general. In the past, her talent wasn't obvious, but now that she is leading such a huge army, it really makes one's eyes light up! "
Wuji sighed, following which he mocked coldly, "I heard that the Taishang Emperor smashed three tables and smashed four teacups because of this. He also sent out decrees to scold the Kong Family. Imperial Teacher Zhongxuan also went into seclusion because of this matter to calculate the fate of this Kong Yao … "
"No matter how much he regrets, it is too late! Even if he can get her back, he won't be able to make her loyal! "
Minghui squinted, his eyes were also filled with mocking intent, "That Zong Shou's eyes are really sharp, it is really admirable. There is a reason why this kid was able to unify Donglin in a short few years. However, looking at the various methods he used, he might not be able to make Kong Yao convinced. After this battle, our Taoist Sect might have a chance. If we can have this woman, once the Spirit Wave Period arrives, our Taoist Faction will have a much higher chance of winning. "
When Wuji heard this, he smiled and didn't reply. If there was a chance, naturally, he wouldn't let go of such a talent!
Then, he heard another middle-aged man in a Taoist robe say coldly, "I see that the victory and defeat of both sides are just a few lines away. If Daoling Vast Habitat goes all out to help, that Monster King might be able to win … "
The moment these words were said, the atmosphere instantly became tense. Wuji frowned. The person who spoke was one of the three sects of Huizhou, Luotian Sect Leader Long Shuang.
He looked at the other person, Sect Leader Fayan. Although he didn't reply, his expression was one of worry.
Wuji knew what the two of them were unhappy about. After all, Huizhou was a place that had been passed down for ten thousand years. Unless they had no choice, they wouldn't be willing to give it up and rely on others.
Before this, he didn't think that they had a chance of winning. However, at this moment, Zong Shou was able to fight with the Night Demon to such an extent.
"The Spiritual Wave is imminent and the Demon Path is eyeing aggressively. Cang Shengdao is also showing signs of rising up. With the strength of our Daoling Vast Habitat, we can't lose to such an unimportant place. Both sides will suffer heavy losses … "
The two of them had dark and cold faces and didn't say a word. Wuji said expressionlessly, "Moreover, all of your places are ready. After this battle, even if Jia Mingluo wins, he will suffer heavy losses and temporarily won't be able to go to Dongtu. Donglin Cloud Continent will be yours to take. "
The moment he said this, Fayan Long Shuang and the others all looked over in shock.
Even if Gantian Mountain lost, it wouldn't be so easy to fall. How would they allow their two sects to move in?
Wuji silently looked at the seven people behind him. As he knew that he couldn't easily take down Donglin, he needed to take the life of that Monster King after Zong Shou lost!
He sighed in his heart. He didn't want to do that and felt that it wasn't appropriate.
However, at this moment, this was the decree of the Daoling Palace Head. Even he couldn't go against it. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
