"If you don't want him to die, get out of the way!"

Using Qian Tan's neck as a shield, Ji Hao forced his way through the alien slave warriors who scattered after hearing the sound. Behind him, thousands of human warriors covered in blood followed closely and evacuated quickly along a rugged path.

The three giant ships sprayed a wave of crossbow bolts in this direction from a distance, but they were far away, and there were alien slaves running around as an eyesore. The crossbow bolts didn't even hurt a single human hair, and they pierced randomly. The ground exploded into a ball of blood.

Behind Ji Hao, the gate of a city that could accommodate tens of thousands of people was broken open, and tens of thousands of foreign slaves swarmed in. They happily broke into the city's warehouse and brought out a large amount of wine and meat, dancing and shouting with joy. .

This is the fifth city Ji Hao has abandoned in just three days.

There were tens of thousands of human soldiers stationed in every abandoned city. Every time Ji Hao used Qian Tan as a human shield to clear the way for evacuation. The human soldiers who retreated with him scattered in all directions during the evacuation, causing him to give up. With so many fortresses, there are fewer and fewer human warriors behind him, giving people the illusion that tens of thousands of human warriors have completely perished.

During these three days, whenever Ji Hao abandoned a city, three to five thousand people would often clash with each other in the nearby human city of Evil Dragon Bay and attack Gan Po's army from the left and right wings, creating a situation where the human race was unwilling to fail. The impression of stubbornly resisting and trying to regain lost ground.

The small-scale human army of only three to five thousand, facing a fleet of hundreds of solid metal giant ships, would often fire a burst of crossbow bolts, leaving a few corpses behind, and then dragging a large group of people covered with bruises and blood. His companions fled in panic.

Seeing Ji Hao once again escaping from the city in embarrassment with a few people, Gan Bo, who had swollen to the extreme, stood on the wall of the human city that he had just acquired, holding a totem battle flag high with both hands, pointing towards Ji Hao. Hao’s back shouted loudly:

"Despicable indigenous creatures, you can't stop me! In front of my powerful army, tremble, fear, and despair! Then, kneel down and surrender to me!"

A dozen generals of the Yu tribe beside Gan Po laughed loudly at the same time. They looked at the vast water vapor in the south and laughed so hard that their teeth were exposed. They seemed to have seen the vast plain south of Dragon Bay, and to the south of the rolling mountains behind the plain, the vast, fertile, rich and prosperous territory of the human race.

"General, we should continue the attack!" A Yu tribe general held out his chest reservedly and bowed to Gan Po's graceful bow: "The great and supreme Blood Moon is above, because of your bravery and skill in fighting, we have won consecutive victories. We have descended on the five human cities! The blood moon is above. According to the war history records, in the past 1,300 years, no noble of the Yu clan has achieved the great feats you have achieved today!"

Gan Bo gracefully dropped the totem war flag in his hand and looked to the south proudly.

After pondering for a moment, he said calmly: "Tell the main army of the family at the rear that I don't need their elite reinforcements. I need more servants and slaves, and more small ships with nimble movements. I want more The Wu Jing and other supplies were replenished.”

Narrowing his eyes, Gan Po said with a naughty smile: "How much magic crystal and baggage have we consumed in the past few days, please quote them ten times the amount."

All the generals of the Yu tribe laughed easily. This was their due welfare.

In the past thirteen hundred years, on the battlefield of Evil Dragon Bay, no Yu tribe general had been able to break even a single human city. Gan Po captured five human cities in a row, so he falsely reported some battlefield losses and got everyone a little pocket money. This was an unspoken rule that the family's top leaders would acquiesce to.

Suddenly, a group of foreign slaves happily carried out thousands of metal boxes from the city's warehouse. They opened the lids of the boxes excitedly, and suddenly countless high-grade witch crystals carved into standard shapes were exposed in front of everyone with their brilliance. .

These witch crystals should be the reserve energy of this city's defense witch formation.

"Oh, what a harvest!" Wu Jing is an energy crystal formed from the purest energy of heaven and earth, and is the toughest hard currency. With the seizure of thousands of boxes of witch crystals, along with the trophies from the four previous cities, Gan Bo couldn't help but smile, high-fiving each other and laughing with the subordinates and generals around him.

Soon, Gan Po's official document requesting reinforcements of more servants and slaves was sent to the main army of the Qian clan in the rear.

In a mobile battle fortress surrounded by more than seventy Blood Moon God Towers, dozens of generals from the Qian clan gathered together and looked at Gan Bo's official document with complicated expressions.

"How is the fight at Xueyun Peak?" A mature and steady general of the Qian clan asked about the latest battle report.

"The human race captured three supporting strongholds, but they took them back. Just today, the human race paid hundreds of thousands of casualties and used the blood sacrifice witchcraft to catch the Di clan by surprise - they were killed by a Blood Moon God Tower!" A Qian clan general smiled gloatingly: "A divine tower, I look forward to His Majesty's expression when he hears the news."

"So Evil Dragon Bay, could it be a trap?" Another Qian clan general frowned and asked cautiously: "The elders warned us to be careful. However, I don't think this place will be a trap."

"How could these human natives dare to set traps and ambush us?" A Qian clan general said arrogantly: "And, as everyone knows, these human races are all the same. We have fought against them for countless years. , they all fight to the death. Trap? Ambush? They don’t have such a high IQ.”

"And they attach great importance to the honor of the tribe." An old general of the Yu tribe said with a smile: "They would rather die than give up their position voluntarily, which would bring shame to their tribe. So..."

While the Qian generals were discussing the battle situation, on the afternoon when Ji Hao abandoned the fifth city, Qian Po finally encountered a hard nail.

This is a camp several times larger than the previous one. In this fortress with strong defense, there are a hundred thousand dead slaves wearing brand new armor, holding sharp knives, and acting like a regular army, and A bloody battle broke out among Gan Po's legions.

The fierce and cruel battle lasted for an hour. Relying on the powerful giant ship and the power of the cultivator Talisman Master, Gan Bo broke through the city wall and defeated the city defense. The alien servants and slaves, which were several times the number of the human defenders, rushed into the walled city. .

All 100,000 human dead slaves died in the battle. The losses of servants and slaves under Gan Bo's command were more than twice that of human warriors. Thousands of Jia warriors in Gan Bo's legion also fell, and thousands of Yu warriors were injured or killed.

One hundred thousand people died in the battle

Not long after the news was sent back, the main force of the Qian Legion set off and broke into the Evil Dragon Bay in a mighty manner. Like a hungry dragon, it roared towards the south and rushed into two places in just one day and one night. Wandoli.
