He Renjian gritted his teeth at the sight of this. Now he understood that the situation was not good.
Now the army of Yaoguang Fairyland has penetrated more than 200,000 miles, or more than 100,000 kilometers, into this wasteland that once belonged to Qiankang Fairyland. Assuming that Shang State sets up defenses every 100 kilometers, the army of Yaoguang Fairyland has no chance of escaping! Moreover, Shang State has many robots, so they are not afraid of consumption!
The news from the army made He Renjian more and more anxious. Of the more than 20,000 soldiers who had nasal congestion before, more than 15,000 of them started coughing. More than 5,000 of them... had died in the battle.
Seeing that the longer the time dragged on, the worse it got. And gradually more and more people began to show symptoms, He Renjian finally realized the problem of infection, but it was a little too late. In addition, more than half of the elixirs for strengthening the body and replenishing the essence of the army had been consumed, and the situation was getting worse.
Even though He Renjian was usually full of intrigues and had a strong character, he finally became anxious at this moment. The conflict and battle that lasted only half an hour had left nearly 100,000 corpses!
A million-strong army, with one-tenth of it lost. This is definitely a heavy loss. Moreover, the army is now trapped in the middle of this desolate land.
When we set out, we thought that this place was so desolate that it would be easy to occupy it. But now the situation is clear - this place is so desolate that we can't escape even if we want to!
Damn it, why did I lose my mind in the first place! However, there is no regret medicine in the world. After discussing with many generals and think tanks, He Renjian finally decided to defend on the spot and wait for rescue!
It is certainly difficult to defend against an attack like that of the Shang State, but if you want to attack, it will be a dead end.
Between two evils, we had to choose the lesser one, and considering that there were a large number of sick soldiers, we had no choice but to make this decision.
The army occupied the hill where the Shang Kingdom was located before, and relied on the hill for defense, forming a three-dimensional defense network. After all, the Yaoguang Fairy Kingdom was not a soft persimmon. Once the decision was made, He Renjian really defended it, but the cost was a bit high.
Some Golden Immortals took out magic bows, some strange mirrors and other magic weapons, all of which had the ability to launch long-range attacks.
Compared to advancing, defense does not require group defense. A small team of three or two people is enough to complete the defense, and it is also flexible and changeable.
He Renjian spent half a day to complete the defense. Looking at the aerospace carrier circling madly in the sky and the fighter jets diving continuously, he sighed fiercely. "Has the distress signal been sent out?"
The guard next to him immediately said, "It has been sent out, and a reply has been received."
"Yes!" He Renjian nodded slowly, thought for a moment and said, "Everyone, hold on a little longer. I estimate that rescue will arrive in one or two days at most. As long as there is a little help, we can form an internal and external attack, or attack Shang Guobie's defense line, and we can be saved."
"Attack Shangguo's defense line?" A soldier next to him didn't quite understand.
"It's very simple, because the Shang Kingdom does not have enough legions. Now that the Shang Kingdom's northern legion is besieging us, the Shang Kingdom's northern defense line must be empty. There was such a suggestion in the message just now, didn't you notice it?"
