Volume 4: The Game of the Gods Chapter 68: The Impressive Xuanwu Army
Just when Mo Yi and the Crown Princess were speechless for a long time because of Yan Lili's strong confession, things on the ground had already turned upside down!
Ever since Mo Yi uprooted the demon race's ten-thousand-year-old black crystal, Yan Zhu knew his trump card was gone. The black vortex in the sky that had previously held most of the Sha Mo people in check vanished in an instant. Between heaven and earth, not a trace of darkness could be felt anymore!
This was undoubtedly a devastating blow to the Kongming Clan, as if the source of their power had been drained away!
However, Yan Zhu was still able to stay calm at this time. After all, even if he had lost the dark power of the demon clan, he had not completely lost the battle. The number of people on his side still held an absolute advantage. It was just that the difficulty of taking Yonghui City had increased a lot. Yan Zhu had been waiting for this opportunity for revenge for more than 20 years, so how could he give up easily!
Moreover, in his opinion, the current situation was not too bad. At least he could still withdraw at any time - fight or retreat, the initiative was still in his hands.
Although the Fengyi Army appeared in the northwest just now, which confused Yan Zhu for a while, he quickly realized that this was just a bluff by the other party to lure the tiger away from the mountain, and the other party's idea was nothing more than to ease the pressure on Dongdaemun. Realizing this, he felt relieved. It seemed that Long Yu's luck had run out and there were no reinforcements available!
Even if we add those Shamo people, we still have three times more troops than them, so it will just be a protracted tug-of-war.
Thinking of this, Yan Zhu made a decision that would make him regret for the rest of his life and chose to continue attacking Dongdaemun!
This stupid idea almost made him miss the last chance to retreat!
At this moment, Long Yu, who was standing outside the East Gate, suddenly saw the Su-shaped general flag fluttering in the wind in the southeast distance!
General Su Ye, have you finally arrived? It seems that the situation at the West Gate has been determined!
The Kongming clan’s retreat route was finally blocked!
At this moment, Long Yu's face finally showed a trace of coldness. It was good! It was just in time! He knew that it was time for him to close the net!
It's time to reveal your next trump card!
Suddenly, flames shot up into the sky from the beacon tower in Yonghui City. Yan Zhu's eyelids twitched heavily as he looked at the beacon fire that suddenly ignited in Yonghui City.
As expected, he immediately spotted the Ruoye army surging towards him from the southeast. The markings clearly indicated the Dragon Cavalry! He had defeated the Dragon Cavalry just a few days ago! How could they be here?
His heart sank, knowing he had fallen into a trap!
At this moment, the wall of the East Gate suddenly emitted a dazzling blood-red light. Wherever the light reached, almost all the dark knights of the Kongming tribe were not spared and were burned to ashes in an instant!
The charging camp of the Kongming army was immediately pushed out of the moat!
Immediately afterwards, the east gate of Yonghui City opened by itself!
The drawbridge over the moat was lowered, and then there was the awe-inspiring sound of horse hooves!
The Ruoye tribe general who was rushing in the front, holding a scarlet blood-condensed sword and wearing a black armor and a black helmet, was none other than the Ruoye tribe’s prince, Long Yu!
Behind him, the Dragon Wing Army defending the city had almost all come out! The Ruoye tribe's counterattack had begun!
But Yan Zhu's nightmare was not over yet. Just when he finally realized that the counterattack of the Ruoye tribe at this time was unusual, the deafening sound of horse hooves suddenly came from behind him!
Yan Zhu subconsciously looked behind him and couldn't help but gasp. On the skyline behind him, the cavalry that covered the sky and the earth were forming a line and charging towards him with an awe-inspiring momentum!
And the golden flag with a coiled dragon on a black background is clearly the symbol of the Naruoye tribe!
However, these cavalrymen were somewhat different from all the Ruoye cavalrymen they had encountered before. It was not the unique emerald green armor they wore, but their aura, the kind of soul-stirring aura, as if their horses' hooves could flatten everything that stood in their way.
They were all wearing the same emerald green armor that shimmered with cold light, and the same emerald green helmets covered their faces. From a distance, they looked like a breathtaking blue sea and sky!
The momentum of the surging Ruoye cavalry at this moment far surpassed all the Ruoye cavalry that Yan Zhu had ever fought against. No matter whether it was the Dragon Wing Army and Dragon Cavalry that the Ruoye tribe was proud of or the Cloud Wing Army and Cloud Cavalry, they seemed to be not worth mentioning in front of these cavalry!
The aura that was so awe-inspiring and overwhelming that it covered the , a veteran of many battles. He had never expected that the Ruoye tribe actually had such a hidden trump card! He finally understood why Long Yu had opened the city gates to meet the attack head-on!
Behind him were the mysterious ace troops of the Ruoye tribe, whom Yan Zhu would never want to confront head-on!
No one expected that after the dark power of the demon clan disappeared, the situation on the battlefield would suddenly reverse to this point!
Yan Zhu finally woke up from his dream at this moment: "It turned out to be a trap. Long Yu, Long Yu, I really underestimated you!"
If the Dark Knights of the Kongming Clan were not well-trained, strong and powerful, and if the Clan Leader Yan Zhu was not in charge, and if they could barely keep their formation in order, the war would have ended by now.
At this time, the reinforcements from the Ruoye tribe that came from afar were only a few feet away from the Kongming tribe's remaining troops! Although the Ruoye tribe leader was not tall, he had an attractive heroic spirit. Under the emerald green armor and the helmet that almost covered his face, he had long emerald green hair of the same color!
Even those emerald green eyes are exactly the same as Long Yu's!
The sharp weapon in her hand was a green sword!
Long Xin, Wei Xingying's mother.
Wind flame.
Xuanwu Army!
The Xuanwu Army was originally directly under the command of the Emperor of the Ruoye Tribe and only obeyed the orders of the Emperor of the Ruoye Tribe!
The Xuanwu Army has been hiding in a secret place outside Wucheng, ready for any emergency needs of the Ruoye tribe!
The reason why the Xuanwu Army was here at this time was partly because Long Xin, the commander of the Xuanwu Army, saw the "Blue Sea Dragon Lotus" jade secret that his younger brother Long Yu had never left, but the most important reason was because of the order of the Emperor of the South China Sea Imperial City. In the handwritten letter of the Emperor of the Ruoye Clan, it was clearly written that the Xuanwu Army should rush to Yonghui City immediately to help Long Yu defend Yonghui City and annihilate the Kongming Clan in one fell swoop. The Emperor's meaning was very clear. The battle must be decided in one go and the Kongming Clan must not be given a chance to turn over!
Feng Yan, who brought the Jade Seal, and the Emperor's decree arrived at the secret place where Long Xin was in Wucheng almost at the same time. Long Xin was worried about his brother Long Yu who was risking everything in Yonghui City, so she summoned the Xuanwu Army as quickly as possible and rushed to Yonghui City day and night. Fortunately, she got one step ahead of him!
Before the demon clan's ten thousand year old black crystal was destroyed by Mo Yi, the Xuanwu Army had quietly approached Yonghui City. However, when Feng Yan came to see her before, she had already told her about Long Yu's trap. So before seeing Long Yu's beacon order, Long Xin did not act rashly. She kept a proper distance from the Kongming clan army, quietly waiting for the final moment to come.
As soon as he saw the beacon fire in Yonghui City, Long Xin's heart was ignited with a heroic spirit that he had not felt in hundreds of years!
The Ruoye tribe's princess, once a heroine who was no less than a man, now commands the Xuanwu Army. This woman possesses a heroic spirit that rivals that of men! She's even more of a brilliant general than Feng Yan, who stands beside her!
She drew out the green sword in her hand, and her heroic voice echoed in the sky, stirring the hearts of every member of the Xuanwu Army: "Everything is for the Ruoye tribe!"
"Everything is for the Ruoye tribe!" The 100,000-strong Xuanwu army roared together, like a green torrent with smoke and dust all over the sky, rushing towards the Kongming tribe army!
Everyone could feel how strong the fighting spirit of these Xuanwu soldiers was, and even a chilling murderous aura could be felt from this emerald green torrent.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
Suddenly, a bloody cry resounded through the sky, and the huge roar seemed to shake even the earth.
Soon, the Black Tortoise Army surged forward like a tide, colliding with the Dark Knights of the Sky Crying Clan. Tridents and Bone Dragon spears clashed like raging waves crashing against rocks, sending sparks of steel flying everywhere!
Seeing that the Xuanwu Army had seized all the advantage, how could the Longyi Army led by Long Yu and the Longqi Army led by General Su Ye be willing to show weakness?
As if it weren't raining, even God loved to punish the downed. At this moment, the battle in the sky had also been decided. The Sha Mo wizards who covered the sky and the sun began to slowly gather in the air. It seemed that the Kong Ming clan's last reliance, the Kong Ming wizards, also ended in a miserable defeat.
Could it be that God was also helping the Ruoye tribe? Yan Zhu couldn't help but sighed to the sky, but he was unwilling! He was unwilling to see his revenge plan, which he had painstakingly experienced for more than 20 years, go up in smoke at this moment! However, what's the use of being unwilling? Yan Zhu is no longer the passionate age of the day. At this time, he has already made up his mind. It is not a good idea to force himself to meet the enemy at this time. Who knows what other cards Long Yu has not played yet! He has almost played all his cards!
In this case, a man who knows the current situation is a hero. A great general should not only know how to advance, but also know how to preserve his strength. As long as there is green mountains, there will be no fear of running out of firewood! At worst, I can just recuperate for another twenty years! All thoughts flashed through Yan Zhu's mind quickly. Almost in just a moment, he gave the order: "The right army will cover the rear, the left army will be the vanguard, everyone, break out to the northwest!"
Almost in an instant, he had figured out that if he wanted to escape from the trapped situation of the Ruoye tribe, he had to rush out from the northwest!
The reason why they were able to defeat a large army when they came before was because they relied on the demon clan's space transfer technique. But now, the demon clan has lost its support and can only fight their way out!
The Fengyi Army in the northwest, which had been rebelling again and again with unclear intentions, seemed to have become the only weak link in the encirclement of the Ruoye tribe. Just now, when Yan Zhu personally led his troops to the northwest to deal with the remaining Fengyi Army, he had already surveyed the terrain. It seemed that even if there were an ambush in the northwest, there would not be too many, no more than 50,000 people at most. It would not be too difficult for his army of hundreds of thousands to break out by force.
And most importantly, the northwest seemed to be the weakest link in the Ruoye tribe! Long Yu in front, Su Ye to the right, and the Ruoye tribe's elite troops in the back were all tough opponents. Only the commander of the northwest was unknown. This gave Yan Zhu a glimmer of hope, and he ultimately chose the northwest as the breakthrough point!
Immediately, a clear gong sounded in the center of the Kongming tribe's army. At the same time, under the command of the flag, the Kongming tribe began to cover each other and break out to the northwest!
The Ruoye tribe's armies on all sides also immediately discovered the Kongming tribe's intentions at this time. They had sacrificed so many people to create the current situation, so how could they let them escape so easily?
However, when he saw the central flag of the Kongming Clan suddenly waved westward, Li Ying, the temporary commander of the First Battalion of the Fengyi Army, who was ambushed in the northwest woods, immediately became nervous. For the first time, Li Ying's face, which had always been calm and composed, showed a look of uncertainty.
He had just started to lead the remaining 10,000 Fengyi troops to come from the northwest, just to distract the attention of the Kongming tribe and relieve some of the pressure on His Highness who was guarding the East Gate. He also planned to take advantage of the exhaustion of the Kongming tribe attacking the East Gate to launch a surprise attack and severely hit the Kongming tribe. But suddenly, it didn't work. Not only did it not work, but he watched helplessly as the First Battalion of the Fengyi Army, which had less than 10,000 people, had to face the Kongming tribe army that moved to the northwest!
This is like hitting a rock with an egg!
No matter how smart Li Ying was, he could not think of any better way to use his remaining army of less than 10,000 to fight against the Kongming tribe's army of hundreds of thousands. This was like a fantasy.
but……
Li Ying knew that she didn't have much choice.
The men of the Ruoye tribe have never known what fear is and will never flee from the face of a battle!
The worst that can happen is death!
"Everything is for the Ruoye tribe!" Li Ying slowly closed his eyes and clenched the silver spear in one hand. He had never been passionate before, but at this moment, he felt a bit of passionate and heroic feelings in his heart!
He knew that the time had come to serve the Ruoye tribe till death!
Even if he could only delay it for half an hour, he would do his best to hold back the army of the Kongming tribe! Let those fellows step on his corpses and bury the army of the Kongming tribe forever under the Yonghui City!
Li Ying understood the truth that one general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of men! If his sacrifice could help the Ruoye tribe dominate the Xu Ming world, he thought, it would be worth it!
