Zhao Hai didn't give Liu Kaide any time to react. While they were still attacking Nanyu City, Stonehammer and the others were already preparing to attack the other cities.
Just as Zhao Hai and the others suppressed the army on the city walls, Stonehammer and the others also began to move. Zhao Hai had already obtained the coordinates of several cities from the Lesser Dragon City. So Stonehammer and the others only needed to use their transmission formations to enter these cities.
Moreover, Zhao Hai used the excuse of preventing the other city-states from sending reinforcements as an excuse to set up a separate camp for Stonehammer and the others. This camp was filled with people that the other city-states trusted, as well as people who could use lightning formations. Because of this, it was very convenient for them to move.
At this time, Stonehammer and the others were fully prepared. Behind each of them were about 100 Void Dance Experts. Although they had a lot of Void Dance Experts this time, attacking Nanyu City would require a lot of them. Because of this, each of them could only bring about 100 people.
Stone Hammer looked at the other Generals and said, "Everyone, remember, after entering the city, the first step is to open the barrier. The second step is to destroy the transmission formation. After that, we'll attack the city's defenders. Alright, everyone get ready, we'll move out immediately." Everyone nodded, then the four teams split up.
Some of them were carrying bags on their backs, which contained the components of the transmission formations. Once they arrived in the city, they only needed to assemble the transmission formations.
Seeing that everyone was ready, Stonehammer opened his mouth and said, "Let's begin." After he said that, a white light flashed on his body. The others also did the same. When the white light disappeared, they also disappeared from the camp.
However, the camp didn't stop because of their disappearance. Groups of soldiers gathered and gathered at the four transmission formations in the camp. They were waiting for the transmission formations to be activated. Then they would immediately go to the transmission formations and kill their way into the four cities.
At this time, Stonehammer and the others appeared in one of the cities. As soon as they appeared, Stonehammer immediately said, "Open the barrier." Then he directly opened the formation on his body. Two other people also opened their own formations. Then they immediately flew up and headed towards the city's transmission formation.
At this time, the city's defenders also reacted. The city's defenders also made some defensive arrangements. Some of the ballistas were also facing the city. This was Liu Kaide's arrangement. Liu Kaide knew that Zhao Hai and the others also had transmission formations. However, they didn't have any formations, so they could only use this method.
When Stonehammer and the others appeared, the city's defenders were indeed stunned. But while they were in a daze, Stonehammer and the others had already opened the formation. Then they flew up and headed towards the transmission formation.
The transmission formation was also guarded by a small group of soldiers. These tactics were something that Liu Kaide learned from Zhao Hai. In the past, when the Saint sent teams to deal with the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance, Zhao Hai used these tactics to break their operations. Now, Liu Kaide was using these tactics to deal with Zhao Hai.
When the city's defenders reacted, a person who looked like a general immediately shouted, "Ballistas, attack freely. Light the smoke signal." Along with his words, the ballistas in the city immediately shot towards Stonehammer and the others.
However, Stonehammer and the others were equipped with shields. And their shields were magic artifacts. Naturally, they couldn't be shot by the ballistas. At the same time, Stonehammer and the others immediately had the Sky Dance Experts use their lightning formations to counterattack.
Before long, they arrived at the transmission formation. Stonehammer and the others used their lightning formations to shoot at the city's defenders. After sweeping the city's defenders down, they directly arrived at the transmission formation. Then they took out their weapons and used all their strength to stab the ground. Their weapons were formations. When they stabbed the ground, everything within five meters of the ground was destroyed. It was impossible for the transmission formation to be buried that deep, so it was naturally destroyed.
After destroying the enemy's transmission formation, Stonehammer and the others immediately surrounded it to block the incoming ballistas. At the same time, they used their lightning formations to counterattack. At the same time, a new formation was slowly taking shape in the enemy's transmission formation.
There were five thousand defenders in the city. However, some of them were resting, some were guarding the transmission formation, and some were on the city walls. At this time, almost all of the defenders in the transmission formation had been eliminated by Zhao Hai. The defenders on the city walls had also suffered heavy casualties. The defenders in the barracks had just come out of the barracks, so they weren't a threat to Stonehammer and the others. Therefore, the transmission formation that Stonehammer and the others brought was quickly assembled.
When the transmission formation was assembled, they immediately activated it. They also placed a blade on the transmission formation. This was a secret signal that they had agreed with the people in the barracks. As long as the people in the barracks see the blade, they would know that they had succeeded. When the time comes, they would naturally rush over.
The four transmission formations in the barracks lit up at the same time. When the soldiers saw the blade, they knew that the transmission formation had succeeded. They immediately divided themselves into small teams and entered the transmission formation. Then the transmission formation flashed with white light before they disappeared.
A team of a hundred people appeared behind Stonehammer and the others. Stonehammer and the others immediately expanded their encirclement. The team of a hundred people immediately came out of the transmission formation. Then they took out their lightning formations and shot at the surrounding defenders.
Then another team of a hundred people came and joined the battle. After five hundred people came out, although they had weapons in their hands, they didn't have any lightning formations. After all, Zhao Hai didn't provide a lot of lightning formations.
The defenders in the city couldn't hold on any longer. They weren't elites to begin with. Before, they could rely on their blood qi to resist Stonehammer and the others. However, as Stonehammer and the others increased in number, their firepower became fiercer and fiercer.
When Stonehammer and the others had more than a thousand people, and the defenders in the city had more than two thousand casualties, the defenders finally collapsed. They began to flee towards the outside of the city.
When Stonehammer saw this, he immediately summoned the other Sky Dance Experts. One hundred Sky Dance Experts were divided into four teams. They guarded the four city gates and forced the defenders to surrender.
When the defenders saw that they had no hope of escaping, and that they weren't a match for the enemy, they had no choice but to put down their weapons and surrender. Naturally, Stonehammer wouldn't be polite. He confiscated the weapons of these people and then locked them up in a barracks.
After dealing with the matters in the city, Stonehammer sent a letter to Zhao Hai. At the same time, they went to the city wall and looked at the situation in Southern Yu City.
Zhao Hai looked at the letters that Stonehammer and the others sent. Their letters arrived almost at the same time. Moreover, there was only one thing in the letters, it was that the four cities had been captured. Zhao Hai received the letters with satisfaction. Then he looked towards Southern Yu City and smiled faintly as he said, "I wonder what the other side is thinking right now?"
Liu Kaide's complexion was pale. He didn't think that Zhao Hai would make such a move. He actually attacked the other four cities. Moreover, he was quite ruthless. Now, even if they wanted to use the transmission formations to return to the other four cities, they wouldn't be able to.
Liu Kaide was very clear that the other four cities were more ominous than happy. However, he wasn't willing to give up just like that. Even if he wanted to support the other four cities, he didn't have the strength to do so.
Zhao Hai's attack today was very fierce. It was even fiercer than the previous two days. Liu Kaide and the others couldn't hold on any longer. At this time, if they were to send people to support the other four cities, then Southern Yu City would be finished.
Liu Kaide was very anxious. He wanted to help the other four cities, but now it seems like it was impossible. The smoke signals of the other four cities had been extinguished, but the transmission formations were still not restored. Liu Kaide was very clear that there was only one explanation for this, the other party had already captured the other four cities.
Although Liu Kaide didn't want to admit it, he knew that the other four cities were hopeless. Moreover, according to the current situation, Southern Yu City wouldn't be able to hold on for more than a few days. At this time, the wisest choice was to retreat. Taking advantage of the fact that Southern Yu City's transmission formation was still working, they would retreat to the other cities and then think of a way to deal with Zhao Hai's army.
However, Liu Kaide didn't do this this time. This was because he knew that they couldn't retreat anymore. The provisions and soldiers in Southern Yu City were the limit of what Southern Yu City could provide. Even if they retreated, they wouldn't be able to transport the provisions. And even if they retreated, they wouldn't be able to reach the other cities of Southern Yu City. They couldn't just let the soldiers go hungry and fight against Zhao Hai's army, right? Moreover, when they reach the other cities of Southern Yu City, if the soldiers didn't have any food, then they might just rob them. One must know that they had swords and spears in their hands, not fire sticks. Once the soldiers started to rob food, then the situation would become uncontrollable. Because of this, Liu Kaide knew that although it seemed like they could still retreat, in fact, they had no way to retreat.
Liu Kaide looked at the army that was still attacking, then he waved his hand to summon one of his trusted subordinates. Then he whispered to the subordinate, "Send people to destroy the transmission formation so that it can no longer be used. Let's prepare to live and die together with the city."
When Liu Kaide heard this, the confidant couldn't help but stare. Then his voice became somewhat excited as he said, "General …"
Liu Kaide waved his hand and said, "Do it. Even if we want to leave now, I'm afraid that it would be difficult. Besides some Sky Dance Realm experts, do you think that Zhao Hai would allow anyone else to leave? Moreover, if we leave, then Southern Yu City would be breached by Zhao Hai. When that time comes, the tens of thousands of defenders would be gone. Without these defenders, even if we escape, what can we do? Stay here and delay for as long as possible. Buy some time for the Council! "
When the confidant heard this, his eyes couldn't help but dim. Then he cupped his fist towards Liu Kaide before turning around and leaving.
