The original situation of mountains roaring and tsunami attacking from all directions at the same time, one after another; the blood wave was emptied in an instant, and countless lives were thrown on the battlefield in a few seconds. After the first major retreat of the Wu League, this situation completely changed!
The attack mode has changed to an attack of 50,000 troops each time. One wave is followed by another, wave-like attacks, one after another. It does not insist on capturing the pass immediately, but it presents an infinite waste of time. The situation gradually depleted Star Soul's combat power.
Sacrifice still exists, the war situation is still tragic, there are still wars on all sides at the same time, and there is still fighting all the time anywhere on the border.
But the previous extreme situation of actual decisive battle was gone.
On Xinghun's side, the Fourth Army Commander finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is the normal and agreed-upon mode of war..."
Commanders from all over the world issued orders to adjust their combat deployment accordingly.
The real purpose of such a battle, apart from the highest level, only the four commanders can clearly know. Others, even the deputy commander of the Fourth Army, are completely unaware.
This is an extremely cruel decision!
Use tens of millions, or even billions and billions of lives as whetstones to pile up seed masters who can reach the top!
Whether it is the Wu League or Star Soul, every one of the sacrificed people is a good man with strong bones, and every one of them is a man with a strong character!
This decision was so cruel and bloody that it was outrageous.
But it was jointly decided by the top leaders of the three continents!
Marshal Dongfang would inspect the military camp every night to inspect the soldiers who were about to go on the expedition. Every minute and every second, his heart felt like a knife cutting.
But he couldn't say it, couldn't stop it, he had to encourage it.
Just this morning.
Commanders from all directions gathered at the Eastern Military Camp.
Marshal Dongfang organized a banquet and the four of them gathered at the top of the mountain. They were the only ones attending the meeting, and there was no one else.
The four of them sat down, each of them speechless.
"Now this matter is so serious... It's as if I personally want to send my brothers to die."
The first person to speak was Beigong Hao, Marshal Beigong.
This rough-looking man's face was full of grief: "I feel so guilty! Every time after a battle, looking at the long list of those killed in action, page by page, I felt like there were countless knives in my heart. It’s cutting! I can’t help them…”
Ximen Lie drank heavily, his expression equally gloomy, and he remained silent for a long time.
Nan Zhengqian lowered his head to drink, and said nothing, but he was breathing heavily.
Marshal Dongfang had a gloomy face and said angrily: "Keep your voice down, what are you yelling about? What time is it now? Everything we are doing now is laying the foundation for the future."
"Without the baptism of today's bloody battle, how can we deal with the demon clan that is about to return? If we don't use the current bloody battle, big waves to wash away the sand, and dig out real gold, what hope is there for the future?"
"Don't I know that my brothers suffered heavy casualties? But there is nothing we can do about it! Have you all forgotten the miserable situation when Star Soul was weak and became a subordinate clan on the mainland?"
"Today's bloody battle and current efforts are to prevent Star Soul from falling into the old state again. No matter how much sacrifice is made, it is still necessary! Do you feel good after your Majesty has formulated such a strategy?"
"This old man will bear eternal infamy for this. Why are you so uncomfortable now? I look down on you!"
Bei Gonghao swallowed a large jar of wine directly, his eyes were blood red, he beat his chest with both hands, and shouted in a low voice: "Of course I understand the reasons and all the truths, but the ones who died are all my brothers. I My brother is dead, can’t I be sad?”
"Bah, now it's not just your brother who is dead. Among all the comrades in the army, which one is not a brother?"
Nan Zhengqian glanced at Bei Gonghao coldly: "What? Are you mourning your brothers to show your deep affection? Or are those brothers who died more important than the entire continent and the reproduction of the entire human race? Are they more important? They died in order to survive the difficult times. Their heroic spirit will not be lost and they will only feel infinite glory. Do you want you to urinate here? "
Bei Gonghao was stunned. Sure enough, he stopped crying and started drinking heavily.
Marshal Dongfang stood up with his hands behind his back and said softly: "Beigong, if... this matter is only a high-level secret discussion, and the truth is not told to us. We are only responsible for commanding the war, and we have no idea that there is such a thing. If we made a promise, would you still feel so uncomfortable?"
Bei Gonghao was stunned when he heard this, and Ximen Lie was also stunned.
They both said they understood the truth, but in reality they still couldn't figure it out. However, in today's meeting, it was Nan Zhengqian and Dongfang Zhengyang who devoted themselves to doing ideological work for them.
Faced with the death of countless soldiers, Nan Zhengqian and Dongfang Zhengyang were heartbroken, but they had to do this ideological work, they had to do it.
"If I didn't know why at all, I would naturally be able to command easily, and I wouldn't feel so uncomfortable about sacrifice. This is the true nature of war, an unavoidable reality..."
Bei Gonghao said uncomfortably: "But the biggest problem is that now I know, that's why I feel like betraying my brother with my own hands..."
"This is a necessary process!"
Nan Zhengqian said calmly: "Didn't our seniors also make endless sacrifices in exchange for the throne, the emperor, and the future of the Demon Ancestor? Didn't the Emperor Throne, the Demon Ancestor, and others also end up in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood? "Grown up."
"That time, to put it bluntly, it was the first wave of Gu raising plan."
"Use everyone's flesh and blood and soul in exchange for peak talents who can aspire to the top, compete with the Great Witch, and restrain the Seven Swords!"
"Even higher-level enemies and opponents that we need to face in the future!"
"Even if there is no so-called plan, this Gu raising plan will still be carried out and will continue!!"
Nan Zhengqian said slowly: "It is precisely because of the appearance of the Throne Emperor that they were able to withstand it... The seniors at the time were able to put down their burdens, no longer suppress their injuries, fight happily, and pass away with regret!"
"Then I want to ask, in fact, each of the seniors can live on. According to their cultivation, even if they have been compared to the throne and others, they are still stronger than us now, right? They have suppressed their injuries for hundreds of years. It can still be done after a thousand years. In these years, there may not be opportunities to recover, so why would they want to die and never return? "
Nan Zhengqian said calmly: "I guess they also believe that they used human blood to create the throne emperor and others, but they feel guilty in their hearts. That's why they chose the last battle and returned in an instant!"
These words made the other three people, including Marshal Dongfang, suddenly tremble in their hearts.
Think again about the worst time in the past...
Nan Zhengqian’s statement is no longer extremely possible!
But... it's the truth!
"The Emperor and others took advantage of the situation and supported the Star Soul with their hands. From then on, the Star Soul Continent had the qualifications to negotiate with the Wu Alliance and the Dao Alliance; then there were the Rain Demon, Qin Sha, Dao Ling, etc... Their appearance. Later, the left and right kings, Fairy Baiyun and others emerged, who were worthy of confronting the great witch! But this level is not something we can understand yet. "
"However, when a new wave of disasters comes, to prepare for a rainy day, isn't it the time to start another plan to raise Gu? This kind of thing, you do it, I do it, you don't do it, I don't do it, but it makes me sad. Who will do it? Wait for the demon alliance to return and let the Star Soul Human Race return to the fate of an inferior race!"
Nan Zhengqian focused on Dongfang Zhengyang.
Bei Gonghao and Ximen Lie also became thoughtful.
"Back then, even us, didn't we fight one by one? Isn't it any different from the current situation?"
Nan Zhengqian said: "How many of our comrades who fought beside us are still left today? How many batches of brothers and generations have we endured?"
"If the fighting in those years was for our rise, then how many people died for our rise? Are there hundreds of millions!?"
Nan Zhengqian sneered: "Weren't they uncomfortable when the left and right kings commanded the battle? But what can we do? This is an inevitable process, and people must be sent up. Only by fighting out bloody battles one by one can we make them The real strong ones stand out! You keep saying that you can’t bear to see your comrades in arms die tragically? Are you just trying to escape your responsibilities? You’re lucky enough to be here now, right?”
Bei Gonghao fell silent.
What Nan Zhengqian said makes sense. Even if it is not a plan to raise gu, it is still a plan to raise gu.
"Compassion does not control soldiers, and justice does not manage finances. Commander Nan is right. This is an inevitable process. Personal emotions are insignificant before the current trend!"
Marshal Dongfang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then why do you have to let us know? Why don't you just say nothing and let us keep our heads down and fight?"
Bei Gonghao still couldn't figure it out: "Anyway, the one who should stand out will stand out... Now that I know the inside story, I feel depressed and uncomfortable. It's the same thing."
"This time is different than then."
Marshal Dongfang finally straightened things out.
He glanced at Nan Zhengqian. It seems that this guy came back from the capital. Is he here to be a teacher for the three of us
Since Marshal Dongfang intervened, Nan Zhengqian stopped talking.
Because, as long as Dongfang Zhengyang understands, there is no doubt that his words will be more organized and rigorous than his own.
Among the commanders from all over the world, Commander Dongfang has always had the most say and power!
"Why is it different?"
"Originally, we were just fighting against the Wu League; and everyone knows what the Wu League is like. If it weren't for their physical strength and their comprehensive strength being far superior to ours, I'm afraid they would have been destroyed by us in these years. The reason why they can maintain The current situation is because there are too few people in the Umbrella Union using their brains... "
