Yun Yang was indeed anxious about the current situation, but there was nothing he could do; there was nothing he could do.
Facing such a terrifying enemy, whether he could stay alive and ensure that he would not be found and killed was already more difficult than ascending to heaven.
There was no need to even think about escaping or winning the battle. Those were already far-fetched dreams.
However, how should he deal with the current situation?
"Of course, we won't bear the great karma of a dynasty's rise and fall, but trapping you here is enough to seal this karma."
It was still Mr. Nian's voice, but this time, he was guffawing into the sky, high-spirited as if everything was within his grasp.
The truth was that everything was within his grasp!
Yun Yang could only endure it without moving, endure it forever, until his energy was depleted and he could no longer hold it in.
There was no way to resolve the current situation.
Despite his anxiety, Yun Yang's heart was about to explode, but there was nothing he could do.
…
The eastern battlefield.
The army that Han Sanhe had deployed stretched dozens of miles. Wherever it passed, it was like a black torrent that devoured everything.
The Empire of Dongxuan's main force was moving at a slow pace.
All the water sources along the way were under their control, without the slightest mistake.
All the land near the battlefield had been plowed to ensure that all the trees and plants within sight had been cleared. Some of the steep peaks were even flattened by the ace cultivators Han Sanhe had sent.
Dongxuan's military base was arranged into a huge fan shape.
It was concave in the middle.
Dongxuan's army maintained this formation and continued to advance.
All the air vents along the way had been widened.
Although the four empires had worked together to trap Supreme Cloud in Ziyou, Han Sanhe would never let his guard down like Dayuan's marshal. The formation that he had set up now was a special formation that specifically targeted and guarded against the Nine Supremes.
Be it wind, cloud, thunder, lightning, water, or fire, you can forget about opening an opening here!
If you're already trapped in Ziyou, that's great!
However, if you're not, you won't have a place to strike even if you come to this battlefield! At the very least, if you want to directly cause great losses like before, it's absolutely impossible!
On the main battlefield, there were only two hundred thousand men from Zhan Ge Troop who had arrived to fight Fu Baoguo head-on!
Both sides advanced and retreated. They had been in a stalemate for a long time.
…
Fu Baoguo's face remained calm and composed, calm and capable, unmoving like a mountain.
Every day, he would find a certain time to gather his generals and joke around. He looked extremely relaxed and carefree, as if he did not care about his opponent or the battle at all. However, when he was alone, his face would immediately turn into a frown, and he would be deeply worried.
The Dongxuan Warsong army they were facing now was merely the vanguard. The real test was yet to come.
However, the current situation was like a raging fire, abnormally intense!
The military camp that Zhan Ge Troop belonged to had never entered the main battlefield, only sending out a small force to harass the enemy each day. Every few days, they would send out a large army to attack, but they would retreat after a period of intense battle, never lingering to fight.
Fu Baoguo knew that Zhan Ge was only exhausting his combat power bit by bit, turning himself into an army that was weary from the prolonged battle to create favorable conditions for Han Sanhe's army to arrive. However, it was one thing to understand; there was nothing he could do about it. He could only react passively and passively achieve the enemy's goal!
Han Sanhe had yet to arrive at the main battlefield; along the way, he had used every method that he should and should not have used to defend against the Nine Supremes' ambush.
As for Fu Baoguo, he had also adopted the strategy of fortifying the walls and clearing the field.
The mountains on the left and right of the Fortress of Resilience had been cleared by Fu Baoguo.
Even the rocks had been moved into the Fortress of Resilience to be used for war.
The few mountains nearby had been destroyed as well.
The trees in the forest further away had not been cleared, but Fu Baoguo's army had turned them into sharp tree stumps that were half a man's height.
Countless traps had been set up to cover the entire mountain range, ensuring that the mountains would not become Dongxuan's supporting force.
Fu Baoguo had set up no less than a hundred thousand traps within thousands of miles. Basically, the entire ground, including the forest, had turned into a beehive.
Yutang's eastern front faced the Empire of Dongxuan. The empire's national power was the greatest in the world and they had the continent's top general, Han Sanhe, as their marshal. Therefore, the eastern front had always been Yutang's most deployed military force.
Currently, both sides of the battlefield were heavily guarded. Yutang's three hundred and fifty thousand men had been arranged into a swallow-winged defensive formation by Fu Baoguo.
From top to bottom, front to back, left to right, they were guarded like a steel bucket, impenetrable and unassailable.
However, such a formation and arrangement could only be used under normal circumstances, or perhaps most circumstances. Once Han Sanhe's main force arrived, they would only need to engage in battle to destroy most of their traps.
Every day that Han Sanhe's main force arrived at the main battlefield, there would be reinforcements from the Empire of Yutang.
There were those sent by the Empire of Yutang, those who came on their own accord, martial artists from the martial world came to help, and there were even groups of sects who came to help … All in all, there was an endless stream of reinforcements. Every day, the number of reinforcements would increase by tens of thousands.
Even so, Fu Baoguo had never felt truly relaxed.
Martial artists who were skilled in martial arts had individual combat power that far surpassed ordinary soldiers, but once they entered the battlefield and entered the battlefield, their effectiveness might not be as great.
The most important thing on the battlefield had always been discipline! It was cooperation! It was not individual heroism, it was one man's recklessness!
These reinforcements had to go through a certain level of training before they could enter the battlefield. Otherwise, not only would their assistance be useless, it might even cause the opposite effect! Relatively speaking, it was the sects who could use them without worry.
After all, there was discipline in the sects; there was teamwork and tacit understanding between them.
In spite of this, they still could not blend into the military formation and be used as regular soldiers.
Just a simple command and strict execution of orders was something that these reinforcements could never achieve.
Looking afar from the Fortress of Resilience, dust billowed into the sky from the east, banners blotting out the sun. From Dongxuan's direction, another troop had arrived at the Fortress of Resilience.
Fu Baoguo's frown deepened. With a glance, he could easily tell that the other party had sent another two hundred thousand soldiers.
In spite of this, Han Sanhe's main force was still at the back, advancing slowly and unhurriedly.
These few days, it was not only Yutang who had been sending in reinforcements, but Dongxuan had also been sending in endless reinforcements.
At this moment, from almost every direction within Dongxuan Nation, there were troops coming to reinforce them.
Zhan Ge's location was like an ocean where hundreds of rivers converged, attracting all the small lakes in the Empire of Dongxuan to gather and converge here. The troops would converge and attack in unison!
If the enemy troops were to converge successfully, the enemy's morale would be boosted while their own troops would feel the pressure of a mountain pressing down on them.
It would be detrimental to the military's morale!
"Wang Dingguo!" Fu Baoguo was decisive as he hollered coldly. He summoned his best general.
"Yes, sir!"
"I'll give you thirty thousand Steel Cavalry. Charge forward!"
"Yes!"
"The enemy's reinforcements have just arrived and their morale is at its peak. We must destroy this morale!" Fu Baoguo's eyes were gleaming as his voice was chilling. "I'll give you thirty thousand Steel Cavalry for this battle to be a complete victory, but on top of that, I have a request! You have to bring back at least twenty-five thousand men after the assault! "
"This lowly general …"
"As long as one person is missing, you'll be punished according to military law!"
Fu Baoguo snorted coldly. "The current situation is disadvantageous to us. Only by breaking through the formation with minimal casualties and dampening the enemy's morale can we shock the enemy! If I let you and your thirty thousand Steel Cavalry die in the enemy's formation, what's there to shock about, no matter how valiant your death is? The enemy can afford to die, but our army can't! "
"This lowly general understands. I'll do my best until the day I die!"
"The key to this battle is that the enemy has just arrived. Although their morale is high, it's inevitable that their men and horses will be exhausted. You can weave in between Zhan Ge's troops and the new troops, then kill your way back. As long as you're quick, it won't be difficult to achieve your goal. "
Fu Baoguo looked at the two troops that were rapidly approaching each other from afar and said coldly, "They want to boost their morale and unite their armies. Even the cowards in the army would feel a sudden surge of bravery and confidence when it comes to something like this …"
"As for me, I'll let you completely destroy this courage and confidence of theirs!"
"Even if you can't destroy Dongxuan's morale, at least the morale of the two troops converging must not appear!"
"Go!"
Wang Dingguo bellowed, taking the token arrow and turning to stride out, his face filled with determination.
Fu Baoguo's expression was steely.
He knew that the enemy's morale had been rising during this period of time. Now, right now, was the best time to dampen their morale. When they had accumulated their morale to a certain level, he would annihilate them in one fell swoop. This would be the juncture where the enemy would feel defeated!
As long as the plan was accomplished successfully, the army before them would not be much of a threat for a long period of time, at least until Han Sanhe arrived, no matter how many troops there were.
Now that the enemy's reinforcements had just arrived, Zhan Ge was welcoming them while the Shadow Cavalry was still recuperating in the frontline. If he took a detour and plunged right into the enemy's midst, the Shadow Cavalry would not be able to react in time.
When the Shadow Cavalry moved again, the distance between them would be enough for Wang Dingguo to rush over with his men and rush back.
He believed that when his Steel Cavalry charged back, the enemy's Shadow Cavalry would still be speeding up. They would not have the chance to meet each other after all …
"Whether we can fight for the time to recuperate before Han Sanhe's main force arrives depends on this battle!"
