Chapter Seven Hundred and Eighty-Seven: Fighting Endlessly
The chaotic sound of horseshoes beating on the beach, I led a group of iron blades such as Matcha and Wang Jian to ride in the crowd of walrus cavalry for the last round of charge. How many there are, blood is all over the body, the long-term battle has caused mottled knife marks on Longyin's blue rock armor, and the ruler's cloak behind him looks like it was fished out of blood.
...
"Crack."
The blade of the sword was flattened, and a walrus cavalry was cut into two pieces together with the spear and the lead. He fell to the ground screaming, his body convulsed and twitched. At the same time, an iron spear burst out, and Li Mu took it away and threw it to a The Iron Blade Cavalry went, he looked at me, and said, "How long have we been killing the Walrus Cavalry, it seems like a century..."
I nodded: "A full 6 hours."
Yue Qing came over with a dagger that was dripping blood, and said, "Brother Xiaoyao, Zhanlong's battle damage is very serious, there are only 10,000 people left, and your Imperial Forest Army doesn't seem to be much better..."
I couldn't help but feel a pain in my heart, yes, this imperial forest army was almost grown up by me watching them, and they suffered too much damage in this battle, so I have to feel sorry for them.
Lin Wan'er looked at the sea with her starry eyes, propped up an iron umbrella in her hand to protect against the noon sun, and said leisurely, "How many sea monsters are there in the sea? It stands to reason that hundreds of thousands of sea monsters have died on the shore, and there should not be more. Bar."
I walked up to her, hugged her who was a little tired, and said with a smile, "Thanks for your hard work, Wan'er, your achievement value has reached the sixth place." [
Lin Wan'er chuckled: "Isn't it because Zhanlong blocked the impact of the walrus cavalry... By the way, many guilds including Xiongba Fengyun, Thousand People's Tomb, and Immortal Valley, their positions were washed away three hours ago. heavy……"
I didn't pay much attention to the situation of the other guilds, but I didn't expect the loss to be so bad, so I frowned and said, "How could it be like this..."
MM Yue Weiliang bent down to pick up the spoils on the ground, blinked her eyes, and said: "Thousand People's Tomb is a guild with 30,000 Greedy Wolf Cavalry, it's strange that it can't resist the Walrus Cavalry..."
Lin Wan'er smiled: "It's not surprising. The wolf cavalry pays more attention to attack and burst rate, and the bonus to defense is far inferior to that of the iron blade cavalry. Moreover, the number of people in the mass grave is too fast, good and bad are uneven, and there is not much cooperation. There is a tacit understanding, occupying a large section of defense line next to the Autumn Harvest Corps from the very beginning, the density is too low, it is normal for them to be overwhelmed."
Li Mu said: "Forget it, anyway, we have resisted this wave of strange monster attack."
I nodded: "Well, Wan'er, you are in charge of preparing for the next round of defense. I'll go to the Imperial Forest Army to have a look."
"Okay~"
...
Carrying the blood-stained Longchi Sword, he rode his horse to the Imperial Forest Army's position, only to see disabled soldiers wailing everywhere. After coming over, one by one said respectfully: "Commander."
I nodded, got off my horse, and asked, "How is the situation?"
Han Yuan's eyes were red: "The 8,000 recruits we brought were killed to less than 4,000... The 20,000 veterans from the Sword and Shield Battalion and the Iron Cavalry Battalion also suffered heavy casualties after this battle. More than 7,000 people died, more than 9,000 were injured, and now there are less than 10,000 people who can still fight. This is an optimistic statistic when the slightly injured continue to fight."
I took a deep breath, patted Han Yuan on the shoulder, and said: "Immediately let the civilian husband escort the injured soldiers back to Tianling City for medical treatment, and the rest stay and continue to prepare for the next battle. The strange demon army will never be so easy Just let us go, the Imperial Army has already been damaged to such a serious extent, they will definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue."
There was a trace of despair in Han Yuan's eyes, and he said: "General, will we all die here this time? The Sea of No Return is already in jeopardy. If we... If we die here, will our parents' home country It really fell."
I gritted my teeth and said: "Don't worry, there are still a large number of adventurers fighting, the empire will definitely not fall into the hands of strange demons, our losses are great, but the sea monsters are even greater, don't forget, almost all of them It has been destroyed, and the number of warships supervised by the kingdom of the fearful is limited, so I don't believe that Luo Lin has the ability to destroy so many warships and still have many warships."
There is hope in Han Yuan's eyes, not only him, but even the faces of the ten thousand princes Xiao Li, Long Yu, and Xia Ye are also radiant. It seems that these few words of mine have boosted a lot of morale and made people Everyone sees hope, well, this kind of moment makes them see hope should be more important than anything else. [
At this time, the herald came again as promised, and shouted from a distance: "Is General Li Xiaoyao, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, still alive? If he is still alive, please hurry to the Zhongjun tent to discuss the matter."
Han Yuan immediately rode his horse over and scouted: "Idiot, what are you talking about, how can our commander die so easily, haha, our commander is both civil and military, so he won't die."
The herald looked horrified. Looking at Han Yuan, he seemed to think that the commander Wan was sick, but Han Yuan's military rank was higher than the herald, so he didn't dare to say anything, but I was a little moved. It seems that Han Yuan Yuan has truly regarded me as his brother, otherwise he wouldn't be so excited.
...
Get on the horse, let Han Yuan, Xiao Li and others continue to prepare for the battle, while I gallop to the camp of the central army. The battlefield along the entire coastline can already be described as hell on earth. There are corpses everywhere, but I only You can see the tip of the iceberg on the battlefield, but the real situation can only be known in the Chinese military account.
Straight into the tent of the Chinese army, when Princess Peier saw me, I could see a look of relief on her pretty face, although it was only fleeting, but I still saw it, Princess Peier would not I hope that my capable general will hang in this war like this.
Stepping on the snow-white carpet in the Chinese military tent, I left a clear bloody footprint on the ground every step I took. I killed so many murlocs and walruses that there is still a lot of blood along my path. The battle armor and battle robe flowed down, and the scabbard and scabbard were also stained with blood. It was too late to clean it, so I could only wipe it with the cloth of the cloak so that it would not be too slippery to hold.
Immediately, a guard officer frowned and said, "General Li, why didn't you wipe off the blood on your body before entering the Chinese military tent? You've defiled the emperor's military tent, so you can be convicted."
I looked up at him and smiled: "I'm sorry, I was too busy and didn't have time to wipe it carefully and change into clean clothes."
Pei'er sneered: "Chief Qing Guard, keep your mouth shut, or you will go out to fight against the strange demons. There are so many red tapes at such a moment, should I say you are ignorant, or should I say you are golden and jade-like?" The outside is ruined."
The head of the guard was speechless by the little princess and couldn't say a word, and Emperor Locke didn't say anything, so he should have acquiesced to Pei'er's statement. After all, Pei'er holds the two major military powers of the Changfeng Army and the Imperial Forest Army. As the number three figure in the empire, the emperor still needed his youngest daughter to help him guard the country, so how could he blame her.
Not long after, commander-level generals entered the central army account one after another, including the forbidden marquis of the Fire Ax Army. three people.
Marquis Jin prostrated himself on the ground with a sad expression on his face, and said: "Your Majesty, the Autumn Harvest Legion was wiped out, Commander Xia Xun was killed in battle, the Xiliang Legion lost more than 90%, the commander Liang Xiao was besieged, killed himself, and the Haiqin Legion lost more than 90% in battle. Eighty percent, the commander Wang Lu died in battle, these three legions are gone, all gone..."
Emperor Locke's body trembled: "Commander Xia Li, Commander Liang Xiao, and Commander Wang Lu all died in battle."
Theodore gritted his teeth and said: "Father, the three commanders died in battle and died for the country. They are indeed role models for the soldiers of our empire. I suggest that their bodies be returned and buried with the honor of a marquis."
Desolation appeared in the eyes of the old king: "Zuzao."
Owen said: "Father, the most urgent task is to deploy the next battle plan. This time at least more than 500,000 walrus cavalry died in battle. The Kraken will definitely not let it go. I am afraid that they will be their real main force next time. Maybe, Sergeant The old man Lin will also march on his own, and we will face the most terrifying attack at that time, my Xia Yu army still has a 100,000-member establishment, and it is still capable of fighting, so don't worry too much, Father."
The old king looked at the eldest prince: "Theodore, how is the battle of the Flame Dragon Army going?"
Theodore's expression darkened, and he said, "Father, the Flame Dragon Legion was heavily attacked by the Walrus Legion, and suffered heavy losses, but there are still 90,000 people who can fight."
Emperor Locke sighed: "Pearl, where is your army?"
Pei'er said: "There are still 60,000 people in the Changfeng Legion who can fight."
"Where's the imperial army?" The old king seemed to be very concerned about the appearance of the imperial army.
Pei'er looked at me: "Li Xiaoyao, you can answer the emperor yourself."
I nodded, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Royal Forest Army has been severely damaged, and there are still 10,000 people left who can fight."
"What." The old king was startled: "The Royal Forest Army originally had nearly 30,000 people, but there are only 10,000 left..."
Theodore couldn't help sneering: "Sure enough, he's just a talker."
Pei'er was angry: "Brother Emperor, please don't talk about the Imperial Forest Army like that. Where is General Long Xiang who counted the results of the battle? Let's talk about the comparison between the Imperial Forest Army and the Yanlong Army."
Among the crowd, a middle-aged man wearing a red armor came out, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Your Majesty, according to the statistics of the last general, 140,000 members of the Yanlong Legion participated in the battle, and 50,000 people were injured in the battle, killing a total of 170,000 strange demons. As for the imperial forest army, a total of 280,000 people participated in the battle, 110,000 people were lost in battle, and a total of 140,000 heads of strange demons were captured."
There was a gasping sound from the crowd. It seemed that no one thought that the imperial forest army with less than 30,000 people could kill enemies several times their own. Of course, many of them were dragon-slaying iron blade knights charging to help in the battle The result, and the role played by 50 ballistas cannot be ignored, otherwise the Imperial Forest Army would not be able to kill so many strange monsters.
...
A look of astonishment flashed across the old king's face. He thought for a while and said: "After this battle, all legions with less than 10,000 people will be disbanded and join the Imperial Forest Army, led by General Li Xiaoyao. The Imperial Forest Army will be built to exceed 50,000 people. regular legion of men."
Pei'er was overjoyed: "Thank you, Father."
She pulled me, and I said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
