Chapter 1016 Broken Arm Survival
April 13th, Haiyun Mountains.
In the early morning, Haiyun Mountain is filled with smog, tumbling up and down, almost like a fairyland. When the sun rose, the thick fog dissipated, revealing the blood-red land at the foot of the mountain.
This is not a fairyland, it is hell.
Although the adventurer's corpse was refreshed, the blood of the corpse remained, and the mottled blood was soaked in the soil, sprinkled on the grass, and splashed on the branches.
Overnight, the 200,000 Southern Expeditionary Army was wiped out, and none of the survivors survived.
This battle became the biggest turning point in the battle of Annan. Counting the 500,000 players still trapped in the mountain road, nearly half of the 1.6 million professional combat players in Annan had been cut.
With the collapse of the Southern Expeditionary Army, the fate of the Fourth Army in Haiphong City can be imagined.
In this way, except for the 800,000 forbidden troops stationed in Hanoi, who were still unscathed, half of Annan's player army and territorial army had been killed by Daxia.
What is even more frightening is that the Great Xia Army was almost unscathed in the process.
The huge gap made the Annan players almost collapse. When the news that the 200,000 army was ambushed at the foot of Haiyun Mountain and the entire army was annihilated was sent back to Hanoi, the entire royal city fell silent.
Depression, fear, grief, and endless negative emotions hang over the city.
After the players calmed down a bit, accusations flooded towards Ruan Tianque, the lord of Haiphong City, with two main pain points.
First, if Haiphong City hadn't been too aggressive in dealing with the Dongchun Chamber of Commerce, perhaps this national war would never have happened.
Second, it was the information provided by Haiphong City that allowed the second Southern Expeditionary Army to be ambushed by Daxia without any precautions, leading to the annihilation of the entire army.
It can be said that Ruan Tianque is a criminal in the national war.
Based on such considerations, the Annan player directly gave up his plan to recover Da Nang City, and even said that the entire southern border was completely abandoned by the Annan player.
Half of Annan's country fell.
*************
In the next few days, the Annan battlefield suddenly calmed down.
In the absence of reinforcements, under the double pressure of poisonous smoke and food shortage, the fate of the half a million players still trapped in the mountain road can be imagined.
Some players really don't want their comrades to kill each other because of the competition for food, so they simply commit suicide.
The scene was extremely sad.
Mu Guiying's department stationed in Da Nang City completed the "cover" task, followed southward, and cooperated with Huo Qubing's department to encircle and suppress the Fourth Army Corps in Haiphong City, which remained in the south.
In addition, there was no movement on the entire Annan battlefield.
On the contrary, in the China region, the [Yanhuang League] coalition forces broke into the territory of Western Chu, and fought fiercely with the Western Chu army. The scene was once stalemate, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner in a short time.
The Xiang clan was already rich in strong generals, and the troops trained by Xiang Yu himself could be called elite divisions. Moreover, the Western Chu army was fighting in the local area, so the strength of the two was in the middle.
Seeing that Daxia was singing all the way in Annan, half of Annan had been captured in a blink of an eye, Dichen and others were on the verge of riding a tiger, so they gritted their teeth and once again dispatched 200,000 troops from their respective territories to the battlefield of Western Chu.
This time, Xichu immediately panicked.
[Yanhuang League] There is also no shortage of famous generals here, Wu Qi, Tian Dan, Lian Po, each of them is a well-known generation, and Xie Xuan, Hua Xiong, Zhao Zhuang and other good generals can be called stars. bright.
The Battle of Western Chu has thus entered a critical period.
Even so, no one would think that Xi Chu would lose so easily. Xiang Yu in history was a man who created miracles one after another, and there are countless cases of winning more with less.
There are still fights in this battle.
At this moment, the accident happened again.
On April 14th, the Great Xia Yingyang Army stationed in Shu, under the command of the god general Li Mu, suddenly entered the territory of Luoye City, and a great battle broke out in the southwest.
At the same time, the Flaming Army of Luofeng City marched eastward, brazenly breaking into the territory of Shura City. The Northern Xinjiang Corps is frequently active on the border of Zhangwu County, and may enter the territory of Handan City at any time, thinking of it as a countermeasure.
All of a sudden, the situation in China is changing.
No one expected that Great Xia would provoke a war at this time, and when the [Yanhuang League] was most vulnerable, they would join forces with Luofeng City, intending to take down the entire Kansai Province.
"It's exciting now!"
Because [Yanhuang League] attacked Daxia's allies first, Daxia fought back at this time, and was not at a disadvantage in public opinion. Players don't think that Daxia can only be beaten and not fight back.
If anyone is to say who is the culprit, it should also be 【Yanhuang League】.
Foresighted players already understood that [Yanhuang League] first took advantage of Ouyang Shuo's overseas trips to Australia to capture the southern province of Anhui by surprise, and then took advantage of Da Xia's attack on Annan to suddenly send troops to Western Chu.
The entire operation is interlocking, and it is obviously a huge plan, not a temporary idea.
On the surface, [Yanhuang League] is just to connect the territories together, and the ultimate goal is probably to establish a dynasty, in order to compete with the Great Xia Dynasty.
Especially after Dichen spent a lot of money to bid for the [Amulet of Merit] at the global auction, the ambition of [Yanhuang League] to establish a dynasty and a country has been clearly revealed.
Faced with such a situation, Daxia seemed to have no reaction, but in fact he was hiding murderous intentions.
Years ago, Daxia first annexed Jiangchuan Province in a "light and calm" manner to balance the influence of [Yanhuang League]'s acquisition of Southern Anhui Province.
Then it became more ruthless.
Daxia was able to take a risk when attacking the tough Annan, and brazenly sent troops to attack the Kansai Province. It can be foreseen that once the Kansai Province falls, even if [Yanhuang League] wins Xichu, the overall strength will not be improved, which is tantamount to nothing.
"Cruel enough, accurate enough!" Someone gave King Xia a thumbs up.
…………
As soon as the news of the war came out, Piao Linghuan, the lord of Fallen Leaf City, and Sha Pojun, the lord of Shura City, immediately panicked.
The two of them originally had only 150,000 troops in their territory, and another legion was transferred in the Battle of Western Chu, and there were only 80,000 regular troops actually guarding the territory.
Whether facing the Great Xia Ying Yang Army or the Lie Yan Army of Luofeng City, they are powerless to parry.
And even if they wanted to recall the troops of Western Chu, it was too late. These troops had already penetrated into the territory of Western Chu and became entangled with the army of Western Chu.
Withdrawing the troops at this time, not to mention whether it is too late or not, may even cause the [Yanhuang League]'s hard-won advantages to collapse, and if one is not good, it may collapse completely.
Therefore, no matter what their considerations were, Di Chen and the others would never allow Shura City and Fallen Leaf City to withdraw their troops at this time. Without the consent of Di Chen and the others, there would be no teleportation array available, Piaoling Huan and Shapojun couldn't withdraw even if they wanted to, so they could only stare blankly.
In desperation, Piaolinghuan applied for asylum from the Tang Dynasty, and Shapojun applied to the Great Qin Empire, hoping to escape the catastrophe with the help of the two dynasties.
The reply of the two dynasties directly drove them into the cold abyss.
"reject!"
The opinions of Da Tang and Da Qin were surprisingly consistent, and the envoys of the two territories were kicked out of the royal city without even seeing the two emperors.
"Conspiracy, this is a huge conspiracy!" Sha Pojun was almost crazy.
Piao Ling Huan is fine, he is just a commoner player, but because he got close to Xiongba, he was able to enter the [Yanhuang League], and then he was lucky to survive in the fierce competition in the wilderness until now.
Even if it fails, Piao Ling Huan has no regrets.
Shapojun is different. Shura City is not only a territory, but also the foundation for the Shapojun family to settle down. Once it falls, the consequences will be disastrous.
Even if the Feng family fell to Swordsman City, the consequences would not be so serious. After all, the Feng family is a family of ancient martial arts. Even if they lose their territory, they can still thrive in the game.
The Shapojun family has no way out.
At the critical moment, Dichen showed his charisma as the leader of the [Yanhuang League], and urgently summoned five members to Handan City to discuss matters, to see how to solve the current crisis.
The six people discussed and discussed, and there was only one way, with the strength of the [Yanhuang League], either abandon Western Chu and try to keep Fallen Leaf City and Shura City with all their strength; or abandon the two territories and concentrate their forces to take Western Chu.
It's simply impossible to do both.
How to choose?
Di Chen, Chun Shenjun, and Zhan Lang naturally gave their full support to take down Xichu, and [Yanhuang League] took action again and again, working hard for so long, isn't it just for the successful implementation of Plan Z?
The capture of Xichu is the most critical part of Plan Z.
So, how can you give up halfway.
From an emotional point of view, Xiongba is naturally unwilling to abandon the illusory Fallen Leaf City; from a personal interest point of view, the existence of Fallen Leaf City is also a strong support for Xiongba.
But Xiongba is the real hero.
The so-called hero must know how to choose.
Compared to saving the Fallen Leaf City, the implementation of Plan Z is the top priority. After much deliberation, Xiongba not only supported the attack on Xichu, but also personally came forward to do the work of Piaolinghuan.
Piaolinghuan exists attached to Xiongba's family, and while gaining a foothold in the wilderness, it also loses its independence. Since Xiongba, the "main family", came forward to persuade him personally, Piaolinghuan could only choose to accept it.
As the only remaining commoner lord in China, besides Ouyang Shuo, Piaolinghuan's ability to get to where he is today seems to be due to luck, but he actually has his own way.
The way of wandering and illusion is to know how to follow the trend.
Since the [Yanhuang League] abandoning the Kansai Province is irreversible, Piao Ling Huan will naturally not go against the trend. Not only will it be of no benefit to him, but it will also sever the relationship with Xiongba.
On the contrary, choosing to agree is tantamount to selling Xiongba's great face. As a child of a big family, Xiongba will definitely compensate Piao Linghuan and will never ignore it.
This is the cleverness of Piao Ling Huan.
In the end, everyone's eyes turned to Sha Pojun.
This representative figure of the gray area, from the expectation at the beginning, to the struggle, to the despair at the moment, his mood can be described as ups and downs.
All that's left now is depression and depression.
That is the dejection after the ambition is shattered, it is the paleness of the end of the road.
Seeing Sha Pojun like this, Dichen and the others also felt heavy. Although Sha Pojun's popularity in [Yanhuang League] was extremely poor, seeing him come to this point, after all, he still feels a bit sad.
The pain Ouyang Shuo brought to [Yanhuang League] was really too deep.
Seeing this, Di Chen suddenly said, "Everyone, I have a proposal."
