Yuan Tianjie nodded and said, "The war must be delayed as much as possible. The more people die, the better … If we keep fighting like these few days … I believe that in another ten days, my injuries will be almost completely healed … That damned book fanatic! He actually caused my spiritual and soul power to suffer such heavy injuries! "
Yi Luoyue said calmly, "I will order Yu Chi to continue to send troops to fight and create a large number of casualties on both sides!"
…
Not only were generals like Yu Chi and Mu Cang Lan unable to understand what was going on, but even the soldiers who had just joined the army were also unable to understand what was going on …
In any case, every day after that, hundreds of thousands of troops would be fighting in pairs!
Yu Chi only sent troops from one direction to fight every day! And the tens of millions of troops in the other directions were all biding their time. Anyone who acted rashly would be killed without mercy!
This made his own troops grumble to the heavens. They couldn't understand at all. If they attacked together, no matter how stubborn the other side was, they would all be dealt with within a few days. But using this kind of fighting method was simply adding fuel to the fire … Yu Chi, you can't be a spy from Mu Cang Lan's side right …
But on the other side, Mu Cang Lan and Xie Danqiong were also depressed.
In order to prepare for this big battle, the surrounding ground was filled with countless vicious traps. Even the heart of each tree was hollowed out and filled with explosives and poisonous smoke.
All the ambushes were arranged perfectly and flawlessly.
But all the ambushes were still built on one foundation: When the enemy attacked from all directions at the same time, they would be launched at the same time! Only in this way could they inflict heavy damage to the enemy on a large scale.
But fighting like this now, those ambushes were completely useless …
Because at most, they would only be able to detonate the ambushes on one side. The other sides would be completely wasted. Not to mention the minimal effect, they would also expose their final trump card.
How could they be worthy of the huge manpower and resources they had invested in so many days? Besides, there was a huge disparity in the actual strength of the two armies. If those ambushes were useless, how could their side continue fighting?
They were completely not the enemy's match ah!
But now, the enemy was calmly attacking like a master, neither fast nor slow. It was like boiling a frog in warm water.
"What exactly is Yuan Tianjie planning?" Mu Cang Lan frowned and paced back and forth in the commander's tent. "It's not a large scale attack! Nor did they send out experts to attack! Every day, they use ordinary troops to attack our elites. It's simply sending them to their deaths … Could it be that they want to borrow my hand to destroy Mo Yuntian's military power? But that shouldn't be the case … As long as he was still the Celestial Emperor, all of this power belonged to him … How could he sacrifice all of this power? But if that wasn't the case … then why? I don't get it! "
Even though Mu Cang Lan had followed Yuan Tianming for a million years, he was still completely confused.
Xie Dan Qiong sat quietly at the head of the table. He didn't say a word. He looked like a stone statue.
In his heart, he was thinking about the strange battle situation over the past few days. He faintly had a guess. However, there were too many things happening at the moment. He could not figure out what exactly had gone wrong.
"Reporting! Yu Lai has sent people to attack again! "
Mu Cang Lan let out a long sigh and said, "Let General Luo lead the troops to meet the enemy. General Hou has fought for an entire day today, and the soldiers are already very tired … withdraw and rest well."
The messenger received the order and left. Not long after, the sound of fighting could be heard from outside. The sound shook the surroundings and lingered on.
Mu Cang Lan's face was even more worried. He sighed and said, "This battle is really terrible. No matter who wins or loses in the end, the ones who die are actually my Mo Yuntian's great men … But now, we have no choice but to fight. What's happening in front of us is really regrettable!"
A general beside him also nodded repeatedly. "If the souls of the heroes who died in the battle on the other side know that they died for the sake of the Heavenly Demon … Even if their souls return to the spring, it would be difficult for them to feel at ease!"
"What did you say?" Xie Dan Qiong, who was thinking, suddenly stood up. He looked at General Ma who had just spoken. His expression was somewhat frightening.
General Ma was shocked by Xie Dan Qiong's sudden reaction. "I … didn't … I didn't say anything …"
"Hero Soul … Spirit … Spring …" Xie Dan Qiong only felt a flash of inspiration in his mind. He instantly remembered the scene of the fierce battle with the Heavenly Demon on the Chong Tian Continent. He couldn't help but pat his forehead and said, "I see, I see. The truth is actually so simple. I actually only thought of it now …"
"Chief, have you thought of something?" Mu Cang Lan's eyes were dignified.
"The reason why Yuan Tianjie didn't attack and only used a small scale battle, I think I already know." Xie Dan Qiong said slowly.
"Oh, then what's the reason? Is there a hidden conspiracy? "
"There is indeed a hidden conspiracy, but it has nothing to do with the battle. In the rebellion of the Seven Kings, although Yuan Tianjie killed the Seven Kings, he inevitably suffered heavy injuries!" Xie Dan Qiong said slowly, "I heard that if the Heavenly Demon's Divine Soul is damaged, he can use a large number of human souls as a sacrifice to absorb soul energy to heal his own injuries."
"Now, it must be because Yuan Tianjie's own soul is damaged and can't recover in a short time, so he used this method of using human souls to heal himself. If it really was a large-scale battle, although more people would die, Yuan Tianjie may not be able to absorb a large amount of soul energy. He can only watch as a large amount of soul energy is lost … Now it's only a small scale battle, and the location is relatively close. Yuan Tianjie can eat to his heart's content and use the soul energy of the dead to heal his injuries …"
Xie Dan Qiong sighed. "I should have thought of it … Yuan Tianjie used such a strange battle strategy to absorb soul energy to heal his injuries …"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
They were furious again!
"Is this true?" Mu Cang Lan was furious.
"It's absolutely true!" Xie Dan Qiong nodded heavily. "I dare to guarantee that this is absolutely true. It's not a lie!"
"Damn Yuan Tianjie! Damn Heavenly Demon! "Mu Cang Lan stood up and pointed to the sky, cursing loudly!
Everyone was cursing non-stop.
"So, the final result of this battle will only benefit that demon Yuan Tianjie. If Yuan Tianjie asks Yuchi to come and challenge us again, do we still have to fight?" A general was worried and angry. "But if we don't fight, are we going to wait for death?"
Mu Cang Lan was distressed. "I really didn't expect Yuchi to be such a bastard. He's usually a flatterer and has a low moral standing. But at such a critical moment, he's actually willing to help the Heavenly Demon and send his comrades to the battlefield to their deaths to become soul energy to nourish the Heavenly Demon! He's really worse than a dog or a pig! "
"He's really crazy!"
Although they were cursing, they were helpless in the face of this thorny problem.
Sometimes, after knowing the truth, facing the truth was even more difficult and helpless than when they didn't know the truth!
"If we fight, the death toll will definitely continue to increase, and there will be more soul energy for Yuan Tianjie to absorb and recover from his injuries. But if we don't fight, we can't just wait to be captured … With the current camp, if the enemy forces charge, the so-called fortifications will just be a joke. They won't be able to withstand a single blow …"
Mu Cang Lan slammed his fist on the table. "How can such a thing happen? How can there be such an evil race in the world?! We can't advance or retreat like this. Are they trying to suffocate us to death?! "
"It's a pity that my brother isn't here …" Xie Dan Qiong sighed softly and said, "My brother is most proficient in formations. He can summon the power of heaven and earth with the help of formations. If he's here, he only needs to set up a wind-guiding formation and attract a gale to completely blow away the newly formed soul energy … Yuan Tianjie won't have anywhere to absorb it."
"Wind?" Mu Cang Lan's eyes lit up as he looked up.
"Can we use the power of an expert to artificially create a gale? Will this be effective? "Mu Cang Lan asked.
"This … might work, but I'm afraid that the enemy will also send experts of the same level to interfere. The results will be minimal …" Xie Dan Qiong frowned. "But right now, we don't have a better idea. We can only use this method to deal with the current situation."
"I'll arrange it. No matter what, we can't just watch the Heavenly Demon wreak havoc and devour the souls of the heroes!"
Mu Cang Lan said in a low voice.
…
The battle on the second day went on as usual. However, there were a few more ambushers in the sky. A few Saints under Mu Cang Lan's command stood high up in the sky. When the battle started, they seemed to have gone crazy. Each of them swung the branches of a large tree to create an artificial gust of wind. The sound was terrifying and deafening. It blew sand and stones into the air and made people lose their balance.
"Could it be that these people are so bored that they have nothing better to do? Have they become stupid?" Yu Yu walked out of the tent and looked up. He was puzzled. "Waving a tree to create a gale … Can it kill people? What a joke! "
The people around him laughed. "Commander, it seems like Mu Cang Lan's side is about to collapse … They actually did something so bizarre. They really don't know what they're talking about. Hahaha …"
Yu Chi also laughed heartily. Just as he was laughing, the Prime Minister's gloomy voice suddenly sounded by his ear, "Immediately send people to chase those crazy fellows up there away, the sooner the better! Immediately! "
Yu Yu Yu Yu was stunned!
What was going on? What kind of explanation was this? Could it be that when the other party was crazy, they had to follow suit? This, this, this … Waving a tree was just whipping the air, but it was really crazy …
"What are you waiting for?!" The Prime Minister's tone was extremely strict.
Yu Yu Yu Yu Yu shuddered. He did not dare to delay and immediately ordered, "Quickly send a few experts to chase those fellows in the sky away!"
The generals who were laughing suddenly froze.
What? They want us to go crazy too?
…
There's something going on today. A book friend from Cangzhou brought his father to Jinan to see a doctor. They encountered some difficulties and contacted me. I'll go to Jinan Provincial Hospital. I'll make up for it tomorrow.
