At this point, he was extremely worried that Bi Zhuo's fifty million men would also fall into the trap. In the face of such a large enemy force, a mere fifty million men wouldn't be able to hold the exit. There was no longer a need to guard the exit, so it was only right for them to recall their forces. There was still a chance of breaking out of the encirclement if they merged with the forces here. With the strength of the guard army, there was a chance that they would be annihilated if they split up.
At the same time, Qu Changtian hurriedly ordered Han Zejun, Quan Wuping, and Xiao Yanlie to retreat and gather their strength. They couldn't give the enemy any chance to divide and conquer, so they had to clench their strength into an iron fist to deal with the enemy.
The three groups that had split off retreated in a hurry. This side had just regrouped when the 1.5 billion men, including Bluemoon, surrounded them and attacked ferociously. It was clear that the archers of the 1.5 billion men were all concentrated at the front, clashing head-on with the archers of the Imperial Guard.
Qu Changtian's men formed a spherical formation to deal with the attacks from all directions. They no longer charged and entered a defensive stance, using the magic breaking bows to exhaust the enemy's power.
Bluemoon's men attacked from all directions like spikes stabbing toward the ball in the center. At the same time, countless streams of light bombarded the enemy.
The intense sounds of fighting seemed to shake the starry sky.
After the battle stabilized, Qu Changtian urgently reported the situation …
Bi Zhuo was shocked when he received the news that the main army had fallen into a trap. He quickly waved his arm and shouted, "Men, assemble! Follow me to the left commander's aid!"
He had just finished speaking when a cry of alarm came from the side. "Sire!"
Bi Zhuo quickly looked around and saw a large number of men emerging from the surrounding planets and celestial bodies to surround them.
Bi Zhuo immediately glanced back at the Star Door behind him. The enemy forces far outnumbered them and would likely be difficult to defeat. The best way now was to leave through the Star Door. However, he couldn't bear the consequences of not carrying out Qu Chang Tian's orders, and he couldn't just abandon the main force that was being besieged. If he really did that, it would be tantamount to weakening the strength of Qu Chang Tian's troops, and once the enemy troops ran to join the siege, it would undoubtedly increase the pressure on Qu Chang Tian. Not to mention, no one knew if there was an ambush behind the Star Gate.
After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Bi Zhuo raised his spear and pointed in the direction of the main army. "Follow me to kill our way out of the encirclement and reinforce the left commander! Kill!"
Fifty million soldiers charged toward a certain direction with great vigor.
Heng Wudao's shout came from the starry skies. "I've been waiting for you for a long time. Where do you think you're going?!"
It was the Fourth Circuit's Marshal, Heng Wudao, who was leading a group of troops to block their path. Both sides were bombarding each other with arrows and arrows.
The 50 million troops were intercepted by the army in front of them, and then they were surrounded by troops from all directions.
In the beginning, Miao Yi wasn't able to predict how Tyrannical Tyrannical Dao would split his forces. However, he guessed that Tyrannical Dao would definitely seal off the Star Gate to prevent him from escaping. As such, he immediately allocated five hundred million troops to Tyrannical Dao just in case. In this way, it was equivalent to 500 million soldiers besieging an army of 50 million. This was ten times the enemy's army, and Bi Zhuo's situation was even more dire than Qu Chang Tian's!
Bi Zhuo, who was in the battle formation, reported urgently.
Qu Changtian, who was on the main battlefield, groaned inwardly when he received the news. From the looks of it, the enemy seemed to have secretly gathered two billion troops and were waiting for them to walk into the trap!
He couldn't help but blame Lord Qing for what was going on. As the supreme commander of the Imperial Guard Army, how could he misjudge the situation so badly, not to mention the fact that his intelligence was wrong?
Right now, he could only come up with two plans. The first was to defeat the enemy, and the second was to break out of the encirclement. The third was to hold their ground and wait for reinforcements …
Just as the attack was about to begin...
On a barren planet in the Chuding Domain, Hua Yitian strode out of a cave and gazed at the Star Gate leading to the Third Domain in the distance. A group of generals followed behind him.
At the entrance of the Star Gate, hundreds of thousands of Southern Army guards were blocking the entrance, refusing to let anyone in. Previously, several million troops had already gone through a search. Now, they weren't even searching anymore. They just refused to let anyone in. What could they do? The guards of the Star Gate have nothing to fear. Do you still dare to forcibly attack us?
The subordinates didn't know what was going on with their superiors, so they thought they had nothing to fear. Little did they know that someone actually dared to openly offend their Lord this time.
"Follow the plan. Attack!" Hua Yitian gave a simple order.
Very quickly, the Star Gate guards realized that something was wrong. They saw several million Imperial Guards charging straight at them, showing no signs of slowing down.
What terrified them even more was that the troops charging at them didn't even bother to greet them. They just drew their Magic-Breaking Bows and shot, drowning them in a stream of light.
The hundreds of thousands of Imperial Guards were instantly routed. The army charged through the Star Gate and emerged from the void. The troops that had entered earlier had already made preparations to receive them.
"Let's go!" Hua Yitian waved his hand. The troops gathered and followed him into the depths of the starry sky.
But before they could fly far, Hua Yitian raised his hand again, and the rest of his entourage came to a halt. A general was charging at them from the front. It was the Southern Army's Marshal Mao Lu, Yan Xiao. Behind him was a group of generals, most of whom were Cheng Taize's subordinates. They led a dense crowd of troops to block their path.
Hua Yitian and the others quickly looked around. A dense group of troops had emerged from their hiding places and were closing in on them from all directions. The number of troops far exceeded their expectations.
Yan Xiao pointed his spear at Hua Yitian. "Hua Yitian, I have been waiting here for a long time. Why did you kill my brothers in the Southern Army? Surrender now, and I will spare your lives. Otherwise, I will kill you without mercy! "
Miao Yi ordered him to lead a million personal guards and have them coordinate with Cheng Taize's troops.
"Governor, the situation is bad. It seems like most of them are Cheng Taize's troops. What's going on?" Someone transmitted his voice to Hua Yitian.
Hua Yitian swept his gaze across his surroundings and narrowed his eyes at Yan Xiao. He knew that things had gotten troublesome. He knew that Yan Xiao was obviously waiting for him to surrender. 'Surrender? How is that possible?! ' He calmly ordered to his left and right, "Get into formation!"
The three hundred million Imperial Guards were quickly revealed.
What Yan Xiao had just said was all nonsense. After the 1.5 billion troops formed an encirclement, Yan Xiao shouted, "Kill!"
In an instant, light flashed in all directions from both sides, and the sounds of battle reverberated through the air. It was a battle of life and death ….
Outside the exit of the Heavenly Palace Galaxy, a massive archway silently floated in the air. On a planet not far away, was the encampment of the Imperial Guards.
After being notified, Liao Yingtong entered the Governor's central tent. He saw Mu Yulian sitting behind a table, cupping her fists as she said, "Greetings, Governor!" As she said this, she instinctively looked around to see if there were any outsiders around.
Mu Yulian smiled and transmitted her voice over, "No need to look. There are no outsiders here. You're the only one left."
Tens of thousands of years had passed since then, and the unbearable past between a man and a woman had long since passed. The man she had given herself to, Bo Yue, had long since been killed by the local forces after he was transferred to another place. Back then, when she received news of Bo Yue's death, she couldn't say whether she was happy or unhappy. Bo Yue's death was a relief to her. Qu Yahong, who used to serve Bo Yue, eventually followed him. In the end, she was dragged down by Bo Yue and died a long time ago.
Meanwhile, she, Mu Yulian, had broken away from Bo Yue and walked a path that belonged to her own. After following Miao Yi and leading half of the Tiger Banner in battle all those years ago, she gained the courage and confidence to stand on her own two feet. Her mental outlook had completely changed, and she no longer thought of relying on a man. Perhaps it was because of that battle that she had basked in the light of it all. Now, she was already a General of the Imperial Guards.
She had always been receiving Miao Yi's support in secret. To be honest, she didn't expect her old subordinates to end up like her, becoming Miao Yi's spies within the Imperial Guards. It wasn't until Miao Yi ordered them to retreat and needed her to provide support that she found out.
Liao Yingtong stepped forward and transmitted his voice over, "Is everyone here?"
Mu Yulian shook her head. "Only a thousand or so of our old brothers are here. There are still some who are inside and can't come out. His Highness wants them to hide in the Astral Caverns for the time being. It won't be too late to come out after the situation has stabilized."
Liao Yingtong asked curiously, "Why does His Highness suddenly want us to leave this place?"
Mu Yulian replied, "I don't know. Since His Highness has made such arrangements, there must be a reason. Don't …? Ni? Magnesium] Feidon 8? Yi Xing Sang?
Bi Dan? Ji Ji? Ni? Ni? Lungshui Zhi Toad
She, Mu Yulian, was the highest commander here. She had no qualms about entering and leaving her territory.
After the two of them left the planet, they traveled to another barren planet in the depths of space and met up with the thousand or so people who were hiding in a valley.
"I wanted to bring some people with me." One of the generals sighed.
Mu Yulian said, "His Highness said that we would alert the enemy and told us to put our own safety first. We shouldn't stay here for long. Let's go!"
Soon, the thousand or so people flew into the vast sea of stars. They knew that they had completely left the Imperial Guard and could no longer turn back …
Somewhere in the Western Army, a group of Imperial Guard troops was fighting fiercely with the local garrison. It could also be considered a surprise attack.
After handing over command to his deputy, the general found an excuse to leave first. This time, he didn't look back and fled into the depths of space.
Similar incidents of Imperial Guard raids were happening in many places in the Western Army and Northern Army.
In the Kou Tian Palace, Kou Lingxu, who was standing at the bridgehead feeding the fish, suddenly turned around and said, "What did you say? Lord Qing is attacking Niu Youde? "
Tang Henian said, "We can't confirm the authenticity of the news yet. It's from our spies in the Ox Palace. They say that there are many rumors going around in the Ox Palace, saying that Lord Qing mobilized 1.5 billion Imperial Guard troops to attack Niu Youde's lair. Now the Ox Palace is in a state of emergency, and Niu Youde has killed two of his concubines. "
Kou Lingxu frowned. "1.5 billion Imperial Guard troops? Where did 1.5 billion Imperial Guard troops come from? "
