Chapter 322 The Beginning of the Final Battle (Part 2)
Crespo said: "The pressure on my side is relatively small. Sixteen thousand people died, more than a thousand were seriously injured, and more than 90,000 were slightly injured."
Cruz said: "The number of dead on my side is 25,000, more than 4,000 are seriously injured, and about 170,000 are slightly injured."
Oliveira said: "My side suffered the heaviest casualties. More than 30,000 soldiers died, nearly 9,000 were seriously injured, and 140,000 were slightly injured."
After the four deputy commanders reported the casualties, their boiling blood also calmed down one after another. As they looked at each other, their expressions looked a little stern. They did not expect that the total number of casualties in this battle would be so huge.
The total number of dead and seriously injured was close to 100,000.
That’s one hundred thousand lives!
Judging from the comparison of casualties, the opponent's nearly three million were destroyed, and our own losses were one hundred thousand. According to the ratio, it seemed nothing. However, the casualties of one hundred thousand people still woke up several marshals. This was already one-thirtieth of the losses in our own fortress. quantity.
Ye Yinzhu just nodded slightly after hearing the casualty figures, but did not comment. After scanning the faces of the four marshals and Master Falan, he said solemnly: "Let me analyze the current situation."
"Today's battle is the first battle since we came to the abyssal plane. There are many more combat methods in the abyssal plane than we imagined. In other words, their commanders are not ignorant of the art of war. With a few Months later, the abyssal army was mobilized to attack us. We cannot yet determine the total number of enemies, but a conservative estimate is that there are as many as 50 million. This is ten times the size of our prepared army. This is the power of the abyssal plane. Although in terms of density, the number of abyssal creatures on this continent is far less than that of our Ryuzakinus, all abyssal creatures can be used as warriors and are all under the control of advanced abyssal creatures, and Our total fighting force is only five million."
"Today's battle. It seems that we have won a big victory, but through the numbers just now, everyone has also seen that our losses are not as small as imagined. After all, this is at least one million level events happening at the same time. Fighting. Damage is inevitable. Although the number of casualties this time is one to thirty. But please don't forget that most of the people we kill are low-level abyssal creatures. For the abyssal army with a number of more than 50 million, It’s nothing at all and it doesn’t hurt their spirits.”
"The purpose of such a huge abyssal army gathering here is to defeat us at once. When the number of defenses in our fortress is reduced to a certain level and the magicians cannot effectively support it, we will no longer be able to get such a casualty ratio. . Therefore, today’s victory should not make us relax, but we should be more vigilant.”
The marshals nodded slowly. Agree with Ye Yinzhu's words.
Ye Yinzhu continued: "The war behind will become more difficult.
Even more tragic. After today's battle, the abyssal plane has partially figured out our strength. It also allowed us to see some of their power. But what I can be sure of is that the main force of the abyss army has not appeared yet. In the previous war, only the eight abyss demon lord-level powerhouses who appeared at the end can be regarded as real advanced abyss creatures. This kind of tentative attack on the abyss plane will not be carried out many times. Maybe the next time will be their full-scale attack. Can you imagine how huge the enemy we have to face is when tens of millions of enemy troops attack at the same time? The forbidden spell may take away the lives of ten thousand people. However, on such a huge battlefield, how many of our forbidden spells can exert their power? There are also magicians among the creatures of the abyss. It can offset a lot of our magic effects. This is why I try not to use magicians to attack today, not only to reduce the consumption of magicians, but also to hide our strength as much as possible to maximize the effect in the final decisive battle. "
Cruz lowered his head in shame and said, "I'm sorry, Marshal. I shouldn't have questioned your order before."
Ye Yinzhu smiled and shook his head. Said: "Marshal Cruz, you are not wrong. Everyone's purpose is the same. What I want to say is. From now on, we cannot relax for a moment, especially when the Amethyst Legion returns to Ryuzakinus for supplies. . It seems that our reserve army can no longer wait. Later, Marshal Oliveira, please return to Ryuzakinus immediately and transfer all our remaining two million troops into the fortress, ready to face the enemy at any time. enemy."
"Yes." Oliveira's answer was simple, and she just nodded quietly.
Ye Yinzhu said: "The abyss plane will not delay us for more time. They must have also noticed the impact of the ancient tree of life on the environment of this plane. Losing the protective color of the environment will greatly reduce their combat effectiveness. Therefore, no matter what, they will carry out the next attack in the shortest possible time. And the next time, it will definitely not be as easy as today's response. However, as long as we can withstand this wave of attacks, then, the initiative It will be in our hands. Everything can proceed according to the original plan."
Having said this, Ye Yinzhu's eyes flashed with light, and he stared at the people around him sternly, "Therefore, no matter what the cost, in the next battle, we must withstand the enemy's attack and reduce our losses. Not only must we delay the abyssal plane army here, but we must also weaken their strength as much as possible. The key to this holy war may lie in the next war."
O'Brien said: "Yinzhu, Falan's magicians are in normal condition. I have asked the magicians who have cast magic before to return to Falan immediately for magic recovery. They will be able to return in about five hours and maintain full combat effectiveness. .”
Ye Yinzhu nodded and said: "In this battle, the magician army is our most important firepower output. Senior brothers, I will trouble you to take command. In the first battle, we will retain our strength as much as possible. In a battle, no matter how the abyssal plane attacks, no matter whether they seek a decisive battle or not, we will go all out to fight against the enemy, and we must cause the most severe losses to the opponent. And deter the enemy."
"Yes." The four deputy commanders respectfully accepted the order at the same time.
The temporary end of the war not only failed to calm down the fortress, but the atmosphere became even more tense than during the war. All the corpses of the abyssal creatures were thrown outside the fortress and purified in the flames.
Let the abyss army on the opposite side watch helplessly as the corpses of these abyss creatures disappear in the flames.
Each legion was well prepared for contingency. In the previous war, the main force of the coalition did not attack and quietly hid in the fortress. But at this time, they all came out of the hidden crypt, fully equipped, even if they were When resting, you must always be alert and ready to enter the battlefield at any time.
No one knows when the next wave of attacks from the abyss army will launch, so everything becomes tense.
The abyss army is more tolerable than expected. One day has passed and they still haven't made any movement. Just as Ye Yinzhu said, the loss of millions of low-level abyssal creatures is nothing to the entire abyssal army.
There was no damage to the muscles and bones. Looking around, it was still a dark area with no edges visible.
Even several marshals are a little envious of this abyssal army. It is impossible for Ryuzinus to gather such an army, even if the total population of all races in the Ryuzinus continent is much larger than that of the abyss. impossible.
Because abyssal creatures do not need any supplies, as long as the death energy in their bodies is not consumed, they can launch attacks and release their own power.
The warriors of all races in Ryuzinus continent need logistical supplies to support them. Food, drinking water, weapons and equipment, treatment, and shelter are all a huge expense.
The number of five million troops is already the limit of the economic support of various countries. This is the result of Falan not hesitate to use all his wealth to support this war.
If you want to increase the number of combatants, it will cause huge damage to the Ryuzakinus continent itself.
The abyss creatures were silent and motionless, and Ye Yinzhu was happy to see them like this. After all, it would take time for Zi and the Amethyst Legion to return.
The current strength of the coalition is not complete. Without Zi Zai, the orc army will obviously not be able to exert their strongest strength.
Therefore, waiting like this is only a good thing for the fortress.
After a day of deployment, more than one million of the two million coalition reserve troops had entered the fortress. They were organized by four deputy commanders and deployed to the four directions of the fortress, ready to embark on the battlefield at any time.
The troops behind were still continuously passing through the passage and entering the fortress.
Since a decisive battle could happen at any time, all the materials prepared by the coalition forces before entering the abyss were transported in without reservation, so that the soldiers could get the best supplies and keep their combat effectiveness in the best condition.
As the commander-in-chief, Ye Yinzhu even meditated while sitting on top of the city. The little dragon girl did not return to Longqinus for supplies. With the existence of the Eternal Tree, her life energy was restored very quickly. After After a day's rest, the consumption in yesterday's war has been fully recovered.
