The southern border of the kingdom, the Great Wall on the border.

After learning that the dispatched demihuman joint forces had been defeated one after another by the newly-appeared human army and were retreating to the base camp, the big leader Jura had to suspend the immigration plan and let the newly immigrated demihuman race quickly pack up their things and return to the wilderness.

If the recaptured land cannot be firmly in the hands of the demihuman alliance, then all the previous work will be in vain.

According to the returning scouts, the demi-human joint force was unable to counterattack the human army.

This made Jula somewhat unbelievable. They had dealt with the garrison at the Great Wall on the border so many times, and they had already figured out how the human army fought.

In addition, it is rare for tribes to unite and fight together. It stands to reason that at least the two sides should fight back and forth and the situation of mutual stalemate was quickly defeated.

After deeply understanding the reasons, Jura realized that the human army was very different from the human army they knew before.

The weapons equipped by ordinary soldiers are not long guns, but "short sticks" that can be used for long-range attacks. They are so powerful that they can easily penetrate the exoskeleton that the Scorpions are proud of.

You know, the defensive power of the poisonous scorpion's exoskeleton is comparable to that of a human knight's armor, but it can't even stop it? The enemy's new weapon is too scary, right?

What's even more terrifying is that with such a powerful weapon, the enemy can actually use it in one hand.

Not only that, they also have magic attacks that cannot even be blocked by magic shields, as well as the "big thick tube" on the ship that has a long range and is more destructive, etc.

The weapons equipped by the enemy have obviously been iteratively upgraded, and are many times more advanced than the original weapons of the Biyuan United.

The two sides have already widened a huge gap in terms of weapons, making it useless to make up for it in other aspects.

Facing such a powerful human army, the demihuman alliance had almost no hope of victory, which made Jura couldn't help but have the idea of ​​retreating.

However, the Demihuman Alliance was formed to regain the lost land.

If we order a retreat to the wilderness at this time, we are bound to encounter fierce opposition from all parties.

After finally breaking through the Great Wall, how could there be any reason to escape back? Many tribal leaders had this idea and vowed to have a decisive battle with the human army.

There was no other way, so Jura had no choice but to bite the bullet and lead the demihumans to unite.

After the troops returned to the base camp, he immediately convened a meeting of the clan leaders of each tribe to discuss countermeasures against the human army.

The meeting made a decision to move the headquarters of the Asian Alliance to the wilderness area behind the city wall and deploy most of the troops to the Great Wall on the border.

It is planned to use the enemy-defending function of the Great Wall to block the counterattack of the human army.

There are also weapons left over from the human garrison that need to be used.

For large siege equipment like trebuchets, some soldiers have already figured out how to operate them, and they should be able to play a role in the upcoming battle.

As long as they successfully defend the Great Wall on the border, the Asian Alliance can rely on this to fight back against humans at any time and regain the land.

It's ridiculous to say that the Great Border Wall was originally built by humans to defend against the invasion of the demihuman race, but now it has become an important defense for the demihumans to jointly resist the human army. The positions of the two sides have actually been reversed.

Although the demihumans had made various preparations for a defensive battle, Jura was still very uneasy.

Facing the enemy's powerful firepower, could the demi-human alliance hold on to the Great Border Wall? He was unsure.

A few days later, the human army appeared as expected. They established camps and defensive positions in safe areas outside the attack range of the trebuchets.

The enemy did not attack rashly, but sent scouts to collect intelligence very cautiously.

The demi-human alliance originally thought that the human army would launch an attack immediately after arriving at the Great Border Wall, but it turned out not to be the case. It seemed that the other side had not been dazzled by the previous victory.

This enemy is the most difficult to deal with.

In this way, the two sides faced off for several days, but no war began.

The combined demi-human soldiers maintained high alert on the city wall, monitoring the movements of the human army every day.

This is not a solution, we can't keep going like this.

As a result, Jula once again convened a meeting of the clan leaders of each tribe to discuss what the human army was doing.

At the meeting, some clan leaders arrogantly stated that the other party must have been too timid to launch an offensive on the Great Border Wall. After all, they themselves had spent a lot of effort to capture the Great Border Wall.

Some clan leaders also speculated that the enemy should know that various preparations had been made here, and wanted to use time-consuming methods to wear down the soldiers' patience and vigilance.

When the soldiers become passive and lazy, they can suddenly launch an offensive. This way they can have a greater chance of winning and recapture the Great Wall.

Jula was a little worried. He felt that the human army might be waiting for something because they did not take further action.

At the end of the meeting, several bold clan leaders became impatient and requested that troops be sent out to test the enemy.

Jula agreed.

Early the next morning, the city gates were opened, and the demi-humans jointly sent a force to attack the human army's camp, but were driven back by heavy machine gun fire from the opponent.

After that, I tried several more times, including sneak attacks at night, but all ended in failure.

As long as that thing is there, it will be difficult for the demihuman alliance to approach the human army's camp, and the temptation ends here.

After this incident, the clan leaders who had been staying at the base camp saw with their own eyes the power of mankind's new weapons and that they must be treated with caution.

…

In the central tent of the Asian United Base Camp, the leader of the Changmao Tribe asked to see the chief leader Jura.

The Longhair Tribe is a demi-human covered in tawny long hair. They have long arms and short legs, but they can still run very fast with their hands.

Seeing Jula, the chief of the Longhair Tribe made a request: "Big Chief, we, the Longhair Tribe, want to withdraw from the demi-human alliance and return to the wilderness to live our own lives."

"Why are you quitting? Can you have a good talk with me?"

Jula must try his best to dissuade him from actually applying to withdraw at this critical moment.

"Think about it, the Canaan Desert is constantly eroding the wilderness, and the living space of your hairy people is also being squeezed. Only by taking back the land from humans can our demihuman race thrive better."

"I understand everything you said, but..."

The two talked about this matter for a long time.

No matter how Jura tried to persuade him, the leader of the Longhair Tribe was still determined to withdraw from the demi-human alliance.

"Rather than taking back the land, we Longhairs want to survive the war with humans."

It seems that the leader of the Longhair Tribe was frightened by the new weapons of mankind. He did not believe that the demi-human alliance could defeat the human army, so he chose to quit to save his tribe.

"well--"

In response to this, Jura could only sigh and agreed: "Okay then, I approve your long-haired tribe to withdraw from the demi-human alliance."

As early as the establishment of the Asian Union, he promised that the tribes that joined could withdraw at any time without any obstruction.

Because he could not break his promise, Jula could not refuse the request of the leader of the Changmao Tribe.

"Thank you, Chief, for making it possible."

After saying that, the leader of the Changmao Clan turned and left.

Watching the other party open the tent door and go out, Jula shook his head and sighed again.

This is the third tribe that has requested to withdraw. As expected, the demihuman race cannot truly unite. When encountering difficulties, some people will retreat.

The only good thing is that the withdrawing tribes are not very strong and will not have a great impact on the demihuman alliance.

As the leader of the demi-human alliance, Jura was initially confident that he could accomplish a great cause, but now he is forced to this point by the human army. It is really ridiculous.

After thinking about it, Jiula instructed the tribesmen to call his son Long over.

Not long after, Hao entered the tent.

"Father, why did you call me here?"

"Long, come here." Jula sat on his seat and waved to his son, "I have an important task for you to handle."

He walked in front of his father, but the latter felt that he was still a little far away and asked him to get closer.

"Listen, Hazy."

When his son was close enough, Jula carefully explained the task content in a voice that the two of them could hear.

"I will hand over all the tribesmen to your leadership and take charge of the remote section of the city wall. Once the demi-humans unite and start a war with humans, you will immediately lead the tribesmen to retreat from the border wall and return to the wilderness while taking advantage of the chaos on the battlefield."

"Why?"

Hearing this mission, Hajime was very puzzled and asked: "Shouldn't the demi-human alliance unite to deal with the current predicament together?"

The voice of his son's questioning was a bit loud, and Jiula was so frightened that he quickly stretched out his hand and made a shushing gesture.

"Shhh - don't be so loud."

Hao immediately reacted and asked in a low voice: "Father, why do you want me to lead my tribe to betray the demi-human alliance?"

"Because I don't want to see our ghost race suffer heavy casualties here."

Jura explained to his son: "I initially thought that the demi-human race in the wilderness could defeat humans as long as they united. Now it seems that I seriously underestimated the strength of humans. The opponent's new weapons are really too powerful. This time

The battle can be said to be lost."

As he said that, Jula carefully observed his son's reaction and found that he was silent, which probably meant he recognized the power of human beings.

"Half, I asked you to do this so that our ghost race can continue to exist."

Jula continued: "Retreating in time can preserve most of the effective forces and gain advantages in future internal struggles, so as to occupy a good territory with good resources in the wilderness area and ensure that the tribe has enough living space."

"But, father."

Hao frowned, as if he didn't want to do this.
