However, since Bluemoon dared to fight, she had to be confident. Otherwise, a veteran like her wouldn't have been so reckless. This was obvious from Wen Liugong's urgent report to Wang Yuanqiao.
The enemy forces hadn't arrived yet, but the head-on battle had already ended.
Bluemoon looked around with tightened lips. Corpses were floating in the starry sky. Although the earth-shaking battle cries had receded, the blood mist formed from magic power lingered for a long time. Beads of blood of all sizes drifted through the starry sky, accompanied by severed limbs and broken armor.
Many people in the exhausted army were gasping for air. Apart from the people who were commanding in the central army, almost no one was clean. Almost everyone was covered in blood.
The number of people who were dragging their exhausted bodies to clean up the battlefield had decreased significantly. Bluemoon noticed this after looking around.
The results of the battle were quickly reported. She and Long Xin had gathered about 2.5 million soldiers, but only about 1.5 million were left. In other words, up until now, Serene Valkyrie's strength had been greatly reduced. The army had lost more than a million men and horses, and seventy percent of them had died here. In other words, seven hundred thousand men and horses had died in this battle. From this, it could be seen how powerful the elites of the eastern army were. The multiplying of men and horses was not as simple as one plus one equals two.
Although her plan had succeeded, it wasn't as effective as when she had dealt with Baili Jie the first time. Wen Liugong and Long Dean had doubled the number of champions around them, and there were as many experts as there were clouds in the sky. When Meng Ru's group launched a sneak attack, the experts around the two quickly slowed them down, giving Wen Liugong and Long Dean a chance to retreat into the battle formation. Although Meng Ru's group had charged in with a hundred thousand men, it was easy to imagine the pressure they were under against an army of eight hundred thousand.
Wen Liugong and Long Dean's command posed a significant threat to Meng Ru's group. Fortunately, Bluemoon led her men to attack in time, otherwise, Meng Ru's group would've lost their lives.
However, Meng Ru's group of a hundred thousand also caused quite a bit of trouble, throwing the enemy into chaos from both inside and outside. This was also the key to their victory.
Although they had won, the result of the battle was that they had killed a thousand enemies and suffered eight hundred casualties. It was a bitter victory!
The netherworld army only had sixty thousand men left, and they had lost thirty thousand in this battle. Needless to say, the human army had suffered great losses. With the heavy casualties of the human army, the Netherworld army might have already been wiped out.
Naturally, the results of the battle were also glorious. In this battle, they had annihilated 800,000 enemy troops. After a few battles, roughly counting, they had annihilated about 2,200,000 enemy troops and obtained about 130,000 Potions of Destruction!
"The army is extremely exhausted. We can't fight anymore!" Meng Ru and the other two stepped forward and informed Bluemoon.
The three of them were all injured. Ao Tie's injuries were the most serious. He had lost an arm. What was even more unfortunate was that out of the thirty subordinates that the three of them had brought, only eighteen were left.
"Understood. I will inform the Domain Chief right away!" Bluemoon nodded, then took out the Star Bell and contacted Miao Yi.
Miao Yi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that they had achieved a complete victory. Warning: The enemy's main army is about to arrive. Find a place to hide immediately and wait for me to come up with a new attack plan!
Bluemoon: Sir, the army has been fighting for a long time and is extremely tired. We need time to rest!
Miao Yi remained silent for a moment before replying, 'Sure!' Find a place to hide immediately. I'll meet up with you soon.
Before ending the call, Miao Yi asked about the casualties. When he found out that they had lost 700,000 troops in a single battle, he instantly fell silent.
After putting away the Star Bell, Miao Yi ordered, "Don't give chase anymore. Take a detour and meet up with Bluemoon's troops!"
On the other side, Dan Qing and the others immediately made a right turn and fled into the depths of the vast starry sky.
Having lost contact with Wen Liugong and Long Dean's troops, Wang Yuanqiao felt a great deal of pressure. He waved his hand and stopped moving forward. There was no need to rush anymore. Was there even a need to say the result?
Kong Han and the other generals were silent, their expressions extremely solemn. A small half of the five million Eastern Legion elites had been lost. There were only about 2,800,000 soldiers left.
Wang Yuanqiao swept his gaze across the crowd and tried his best to speak in an encouraging tone, "Everyone, there is no need to belittle the enemy's morale. I believe that even if the enemy won, it would be a pyrrhic victory. They must have expended a lot of their troops as well. We still have the advantage in numbers. There is still a chance for us to eliminate them! Order Wu Jinhuan's million-strong army to spread out a net of spies. We will find another opportunity to fight! "
The generals exchanged glances. Did they still have the advantage in numbers? 'What about the enemy? With the help of the human race, their spies are much deeper, denser, and more numerous than ours. Just this alone is enough to deal with an army of two million soldiers. Yet we have to send another million soldiers. Not to mention, do we have enough time for His Highness to give us? '
The generals knew that even if Wang Yuanqiao didn't want to do it, he had to at least put on an act. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to answer to His Highness. They cupped their fists and said, "Understood!"
The battle temporarily came to an end. Naturally, the results of the battle in Purgatory had also reached here. After all, Dan Qing and the others had also participated in the battle.
Below the pavilion, Yun Aotian and the others, who were either sitting or standing, were silent. They had already annihilated 2,200,000 Eastern Legion elites!
Not only had they stayed in Purgatory, but they had also stayed in the outside world. Naturally, they knew how powerful Heavenly King Ying was. Even if they had the entire Purgatory army under their command, that Heavenly King Ying was still not someone they could afford to offend. Naturally, they knew what it meant to have the Eastern Legion elites. But now, Miao Yi was already wrestling with Heavenly King Ying, and he had even annihilated more than two million Eastern Legion elites.
Everyone below the pavilion was silent. They exchanged glances with one another, all sighing in their hearts. To think that such a small fry from the Small Realm all those years ago would be able to reach such heights. Mu Fanjun stood in front of a cluster of flowers and gazed at them. Her expression was the most complicated.
A geomantic compass was placed on top of the pavilion, and the star chart displayed was that of the Black Dragon Swamp. Yang Qing didn't have much experience in space battles. At this moment, Jin Man was explaining the battle situation to him on the geomantic compass.
When she was done, Jin Man sighed and said, "Back then, during the battle in Yuding Domain, I only thought that your courage was commendable. Now, it seems that the Sage King is indeed skilled in battle. If the Sage King can retreat unscathed from this battle, your name will truly shake the world! Now, it seems that the Grand Deacon's previous worries were a little too petty. On the other hand, the Sage King's boldness is extraordinary. He stood his ground against the opinions of the masses and threw away such a huge source of income like Virtuous Assembly Hall just like that. Look at it now. The Imperial Guards are almost here. It's unlikely that the Eastern Legion elites will be able to turn the tables, unless the Sage King makes a huge mistake in his decision-making! "
Yang Qing didn't seem to understand her teasing. After staring at the geomantic compass for a long time, he finally nodded and said, "It's about time."
"What's about time?" Jin Man was a little confused. She didn't understand what he meant.
Yang Qing smiled and didn't explain. He took out the Star Bell.
When he arrived at where Bluemoon's troops were, Miao Yi, who hadn't taken off his armor, walked into the cave with his armor clattering noisily. Bluemoon and the others immediately came to greet him. Bluemoon even took the initiative to apologize, "It's all because of my recklessness that the army has suffered such heavy losses!"
Miao Yi stared at her for a while, then said decisively, "Let's not talk about this. Now is not the time to talk about this!" He walked over to Meng Ru and the others and looked at the three wounded men. He focused his attention on Ao Tie's missing arm. Without saying anything, he turned and strode into the cave hall. He stood in front of the geomantic compass and said, "I've received news that the enemy has sent out another million troops as spies. It's clear that they haven't given up! But there's nothing to be afraid of. We still have about two million troops, while the enemy has less than three million. They still have to send out another million troops as spies. Furthermore, we already have about one hundred and forty thousand Transcendence Bows in our hands. The situation is far better than the situation before the war. We weren't afraid before, so there's even less to be afraid now! Most importantly, while the enemy is in a hurry to find me for a decisive battle, I can wait for an opportunity to strike. That's why we can still think of a way to divide and annihilate the enemy. Now, order the army to seize the time to rest and reorganize! "
"Understood!" The generals cupped their fists in response.
Everyone then gathered around the geomantic compass to discuss the next step of the battle plan.
Beside them, Mo You had a mournful look on his face. 'More than a million troops? Our clansmen have died in battle! '
On the other hand, the chief beside her who had personally participated in the battle appeared calm. He seemed to have realized something. 'This battle? The human army had played an important role. So …? The clansmen also had the ability to fight against the elites of the eastern army! '
A few people glanced at the geomantic compass and couldn't help but move closer to it to listen to Miao Yi and the others discuss how to deploy their troops. Their eagerness to learn was obvious.
After experiencing the baptism of battle, many people's mentality had changed.
Halfway through the discussion, Miao Yi temporarily left the geomantic compass and took out the Star Bell. It was a message from Yang Qing.
Yang Qing politely asked, 'Milord, what do you plan to do next?'
Miao Yi, 'Since the battle has already begun, there's no need to be polite. If they dare to play, then I dare to play along!'
Yang Qing, 'Milord! 'Don't fight anymore. You can stop now!?' Putting aside the clansmen, there are only sixty thousand soldiers left in the Netherworld Army. These will be your foundation in the future. Milord, have you forgotten the situation back then when you had no subordinates to use? These sixty thousand soldiers will be your backbone in the future. If you kill them all, will you have to rely on others in the future? '
These words struck a chord in Miao Yi's heart. After a moment of silence, Miao Yi replied, 'I'm afraid that even if I am willing to stop, the enemy might not. We've already fought to this point, and we've already offended them. All the more reason for me to not show any weakness!'
Yang Qing earnestly advised him, 'Milord, don't let your emotions affect your decisions anymore. Don't be stubborn! Sometimes, taking a step back isn't because you're afraid of the enemy, nor is it to show weakness. Sometimes, retracting your fist is to accumulate strength so that you can strike out with greater force! '
Miao Yi, 'What do you think?
