Not to mention the people who were crushed to death by the collapse of houses, the number of ordinary people who were directly shocked to death by the impact was at least 100,000 or 200,000.
They followed the traces left by the winged demons and sneaked to the outskirts of Canngling City three days later. At this time, they happened to see three to four thousand elite Rakshasa demonic soldiers retreating north under the cover of thousands of elite winged demons. , you can also see the tall demon body of the Great Demon King Wu Zhen, and the entire Canngling City is also filled with the strong bloody atmosphere that has just gone through a brutal killing.
Although the disciples of the three sects who originally followed Ji Chengyun and Huan Wen to the east were mainly in the spirit realm, it was thanks to their arrival that Chen Hai was able to repulse the attack of the great demon Wuzhen with great reluctance and won the victory. In this battle, in addition to the casualties of 300,000 to 400,000 civilians in the city, the 400,000 defenders who were hastily reorganized before the war acted as human shields one after another, doing whatever it took to isolate the elite demon soldiers from the Tianhe Sect and the disciples of the three sects. Two-thirds of the generals did not even have a chance to fight against the elite demon soldiers, and were directly trampled or shocked to death.
At this time, Cang Yi, Ji Chengyun, and Huan Wen were all seriously injured, and they did not have the powerful self-healing power of Chen Hai, so they all retreated to heal their injuries and could not come out to meet Qin Qian and Fu Shaoqun for the time being.
When Fu Shaoqun and Qin Qian entered Canngling City, they realized how reluctant Chen Hai and the others had won this battle!
"..." Qin Qian and Fu Shaoqun were stunned. They didn't expect Chen Hai to be so bold in his tactics. He was trying to use himself as bait.
This is indeed the best opportunity for Longxiang's advance troops to separate and attack them. However, once the Great Demon Lord realizes that their retreat is no longer guaranteed, he will desperately gather the superior demon soldiers gathered in advance and attack Cangling again from Qinyang City. The city launches a bloody attack. How will Canngling City be defended then
Fu Shaoqun and Qin Qian looked at each other. They knew that it would not be easy for Chen Hai to win this battle, but they did not expect that the casualties would be so heavy. Of the 400,000 defenders who had been hastily organized before the war, only 70,000 were left alive at this moment - The victory in the battle just now was completely made of flesh and blood, but to their surprise, when they entered the city, they saw that the generals were not frightened by such tragic or even cruel casualties, but they just seemed a little... He was unusually silent, like a silent stone, and his will even seemed firmer than that of the elite soldiers.
These elite demon soldiers can still quickly climb over these majestic mountains and return to the west of Scarlet Shadow Peak, not to mention those elite wing demons that block out the sky and the sun.
If the great demon king Wu Zhen wants to borrow a large group of elite winged demons from Chilongling at this time, he should be unable to attack Canngling City in time. The demons will probably gather troops in Qinyang City to fight against this side. I want to know what Chen Hai’s next plan is. Should he continue to gather stragglers in Canngling City and confront the demonic soldiers coming from the north? Or should he lead his troops to the east and join the main force of the Northwest Qin King’s army to see if there is a chance to go deep in Shiwei Mountain? Looking for a fighter jet
Zhou Wenwei, Chen Zhengqing and other disciples of the Tianhe Sect, as well as the three disciples of the Wanxianshan Sect who came with Ji Chengyun and Huan Wen, were surrounded by the defenders, but they were penetrated by the elite Winged Demons several times and died in the battle. There are more than a thousand people.
Once the attention of the Great Demon King Wu Zhen is completely attracted by Chen Hai, even if they realize that a hundred thousand Longxiang advance troops have entered the hinterland of Beiting, they will most likely believe that Longxiang advance troops will rush to Canngling City as soon as possible to follow him. When Chen Hai joins forces, the demon soldiers heading south from the gap in Jiuyuan Fortress will rush to Qinyang City in the north at all costs.
It was quite difficult for Qin Qian and Fu Shaoqun to sneak out quietly without any other guards, given their cultivation level. In the end, it took them three days to sneak out of Shiwei Mountain and enter Shiwei Mountain. The hilly belt to the west.
"I didn't ask Longxiang's advance troops to come over and join us. Instead, I asked them to take the retreat of the demon soldiers heading south from the gap in Jiuyuan Fortress!" Chen Hai said calmly.
Chen Hai was now eager to understand the situation of the Northwestern King Qin's army being besieged in Shiweishan. Li Yongchang and Chen Zhengqing stayed outside to clean up the battlefield. He took Qin Qian and Fu Shaoqun into the temporary tent in the south city to talk.
The entire Canngling City fell into a deathly silence.
The old demon Wu Zhen mobilized a large number of elite winged demons from the east. Qin Hushan and the others were aware of the mobilization of the demon soldiers, so they would definitely send someone to contact them.
Although Qin Hushan, Wu Zhidong and others led the Northwest Qin King's army to firmly control Chiying Peak and even the eastern part of Yuzhou, the demon soldiers who entered Shiwei Mountain were too many and too strong - Even if they took advantage of the steep terrain and blocked the main force of nearly four million demon soldiers to the east of Scarlet Shadow Peak, the majestic mountains that could reach tens of thousands of feet could stop ordinary demon soldiers, but they could not stop demon soldiers and demon school-level demon soldiers. Elite magic soldiers.
The entire northern city of Canling City was completely destroyed. On the ground within a radius of ten miles of the northern city, a thick layer of flesh and blood was piled up among the ruins of the city. There were also broken limbs floating everywhere, which was very disturbing. Shockingly, they didn’t know how many people had to die to form such a thick, deep, and large river of flesh and blood!
"The Longxiang Army's 100,000 elite troops are less than seven days away from Canngling City, and it will be difficult for the demon soldiers to organize a strong attack on Canngling City within seven days. Chen Hou, what's our next move?" Qin Qian understood. By the time the main force of Longxiang's advance army arrived, they were already less than 20,000 miles away from Canngling City, and they were advancing quickly on the Fengyan airship, which gave them a little peace of mind.
And there were by no means a few civilian casualties in the city. After all, the demon soldiers gathered a large group of elite wing demons this time, and they were able to attack from all directions, and there was a violent impact during the battle. There was no large formation in the city to protect them, and almost half of the houses in the city were destroyed. .
After the Tashan defense line collapsed, Qin Qian and Fu Shaoqun fled westward with the army. Like bereaved dogs, they were in danger of being swallowed up by a large number of demon soldiers at any time. Although Chen Hai came here, he wanted to slow down the main force of the demon soldiers as much as possible. In the end, there was no telling how many people would be left alive to retreat back to the Northwest Territory, but Qin Qian and Fu Shaoqun sneaked out of the heavy siege of the demon clan for the first time. Looking at the vast world and the wildly flowing river, they felt much more comfortable.
Of course, Chen Hai and the others achieved brilliant results in this battle. They killed almost 10,000 elite winged demons and nearly 10,000 elite blue-scaled demon guards on the battlefield. Countless people were injured, at least in just three to five days. Within a few days, it would be difficult for the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen to launch a strong attack on Canngling City from the direction of Qinyang...
Qin Qian and Fu Shaoqun landed in front of Chen Hai. Seeing Chen Hai in such miserable condition, they stepped forward with inexplicable emotions and saluted: "Chen Hou!"
Fu Shaoqun and Qin Qian flew to Beicheng and saw Chen Hai standing among blood and flesh, his clothes and armor all broken, his naked chest was covered with wounds, and there was even a penetrating wound as big as the mouth of a bowl on his abdomen. Although At this time, he was quickly recovering from his wounds with the supernatural power of his body being indestructible, but he still looked so shocking. It was hard to imagine how tragic the battle before they came over was.
Seeing the demon soldiers retreating hastily north, abandoning their armor, Fu Shaoqun and Qin Qian knew that Chen Hai should lead reinforcements in Canngling City at this time, and they won another battle and repelled the demon soldiers' offensive again, but Chen Hai They didn't send soldiers and horses to take advantage of the situation to chase them out. They could also guess that Chen Hai could enter Canngling City so quickly and there must not be many elites around him. This battle must be against the vanguard elites commanded by the Great Demon Lord. It was extremely difficult to win.
As they traveled westward, they could see that the main stream of the Cangling River and the valleys of its tributaries were full of people fleeing to the west. However, the vast majority of these refugees were unarmed ordinary people and descendants of clans with strong cultivation base. , approximately after learning the news of the collapse of the Tashan defense line, they began to retreat westward. At this time, there were very few people left in the western foothills of Shiwei Mountain, not to mention those who had higher cultivation levels, could control weapons or He is an elite member of the clan who owns high-level spirit cavalry and spirit birds.
In the battle just now, the Great Demon King Wu Zhen mobilized more than 20,000 winged demons and 15,000 blue-scaled demon guards to attack Canngling City from the north again. In addition to the 400,000 miscellaneous soldiers that Chen Hai had hastily organized—except for the initially recruited 300,000 miscellaneous soldiers were later incorporated into the garrison by intercepting the remnant soldiers fleeing westward and the clan's children. Their combat strength was relatively more elite - only the three thousand Northwest Territory clan members who volunteered to follow Ji Chengyun and Huan Wen into the Beiting to ward off the demons. The disciples entered Canngling City in advance to reinforce Chen Hai.
The morale of the Tianhe Sect disciples who were forced to march westward with Chen Hai was also quite good. They seemed to be inspired by the bloody battle to fight to the death!
"..." Qin Qian was puzzled. One hundred thousand elites of Long Xiang's army entered Canngling City as quickly as possible. The great demon king Wu Zhen had suffered losses twice and wanted to attack Canngling before he could gather enough strong troops. City, are you really not afraid of capsizing in the gutter of Chen Hai like Yan Xun and Feng Kang
Initially, the Beiting had 300,000 to 400,000 defenders in Yuzhou. When they led their troops to retreat to Red Shadow Peak, the Yuzhou defenders had already fled without fighting, so they were not surprised by what they saw. Strange, they just lost so many contacts. They didn't know how many elite reinforcements Chen Hai had brought this time, nor did they know how long they could drag the main force of the demon soldiers on the eastern front after joining Chen Hai.
"We will probably have to fight another bloody battle here!" Chen Hai said calmly.
Although there were as many as four and a half million demon soldiers heading south from Jiuyuan Fortress at this time, they were scattered on the 30,000-mile road from Jiuyuan Fortress to Qinyang precisely because they were eager to go south. None of them was a match for the 100,000 elite Longxiang advance troops assembled.
Qin Qian, Fu Shaoqun and Chen Hai had worked together to control demons on the battlefield in the northern part of Mo Zhangling for a long time. Naturally, they knew his ability to run an army and dare to fight tough battles. They also knew how brilliant Chen Hai's previous achievements were, but in such a disadvantageous environment, Seeing Chen Hai win again, they still couldn't suppress their inner shock.
Even after leaving Shiwei Mountain, they did not dare to fly across the sky with their swords for fear of attracting a group of strong demons to attack them. They only used the dense forests and deep valleys to track the remains of the large group of winged demons heading west. Traces, all the way west to find Chen Hai and others' foothold.
This means that except for the small area controlled by the Northwest Qin King's Army, the surrounding area of Red Shadow Peak has actually fallen under the tight control of the demons. In order to disturb the retreat of the Northwest Qin King's Army, Qin Hushan and the others also clearly knew that the demons The clan has at least two Demon Lord-level beings stationed in the Chilong Ridge area.
"You guys are here, there weren't any twists and turns along the way, right?" Chen Hai pulled himself up from the river of flesh and blood that reached his thighs, and walked gently onto a section of the wall, as if he was afraid of disturbing the souls of the generals who were sleeping forever. He didn't feel the slightest surprise that Qin Qian, Fu Shaoqun and others came to meet them at this time.
