No matter how long the night is, dawn will always come.
At dawn, the thick fog dissipated from Yingzui Cliff, and when the morning glow shone into the valley for the first time in several days, the soldiers from heaven and earth stopped fighting.
The darkness covered their eyes, allowing them to only see the enemy in front of them and not the road beneath their feet.
Now the sun broke through the darkness and illuminated the land. Both parties seemed to have woken up from sleepwalking, only to realize that they were in a different place.
From Queguan to Yingbelly Mountain, from Yingzui Cliff to Wangfu Ridge, and to Shifeng Peak, the topography has undergone earth-shaking changes in just a few days.
The blood really gathered into rivers, and the corpses really piled up into mountains.
The situation in the wilderness was not bad, after all, the battlefield was vast. In the 20-mile-long canyon of the inner defense line of Eagle Beak Cliff, it looked extremely tragic.
Mountains of corpses lie across the land where corpses are piled thickly. Every raised mountain of corpses is filled with warriors from the human and celestial realms.
The sun shines on the cheeks of these soldiers, and the swords in their hands shine with cold blood. There is only death here, no life.
Qu Datou had completed his mission. An hour ago, he had killed the 6,000 Skyfire Beasts and the giants who had been mobilized from the rear by the enemy. The madman army retreated along the canyon towards the north.
At this moment, Qu Datou was standing on a mountain of corpses to the north of the third line of defense. There were more than thirty shirtless militia soldiers with black skin and dark cheeks on the top of the high corpse mountain.
In front of them, at their feet, was the corpse of a giant warrior who had just been chopped into pieces. In front of them, there were four giant warriors holding large shields, seeming to be attacking the mountain of corpses.
The bright sunshine caused both parties to stop moving in unison, then raised their heads and looked at the eastern sky.
Zhan Ying stood on a hill on the eastern flank of Eagle Belly Mountain. There was a small gap at his feet, through which a steady stream of militia troops entered the battlefield.
After nearly three hours of bloody fighting, most of the main force of the million-strong militia on the Eastern Front has been lost. Seventy-three teams of one hundred and seventy-seven thousand people have rushed into the canyon, with only thirty-four remaining outside the gap.
A team of ten thousand people.
At dawn, the fog cleared, and Zhan Ying could roughly see clearly the fighting at the Yingzui Cliff defense line.
When he received the report of the frontline battle coming from Zhao Shiqu, he let out a long breath.
Heaven lost.
In the wasteland battle, the human cavalry overwhelmed the enemy's destruction army in the thick fog and compressed the enemy's main force into the defense line of Yingzui Cliff. The six-winged army that Gu Yuqi mobilized yesterday to attract the human aerial cavalry, after a night of fighting,
, although the Southern Xinjiang Dragon Riders and the Sky Bat Tribe, Eagle Tribe, and Griffin Tribe paid a heavy price, in the end, the remaining strength of the 50,000 Six-Winged Legion was finally eliminated.
They were strangled to death eighty miles south of Eagle Beak Cliff.
This battle has reached the sixth day. The enemy's more than 500,000 Storm Legion has been completely annihilated, the 180,000 Six-Wing Legion has been annihilated, and the 180,000 Destruction Legion has escaped control.
Now the enemy's only viable troops are more than 300,000 madmen, 200,000 skeletons, and 300,000 giants.
The main force of the Madman Legion has been transferred into the corridor by Gu Yuqi, trying to break the deadlock through the corridor.
Zhan Ying was not optimistic about Gu Yuqi's tactic. There was no shortage of strategists in the world. Although no news came, Zhan Ying had already made plans when he learned that the leader of the Baishan clan was leading 200,000 Skybat clan members to fly to the military medical camp in the rear.
Guess, Zhao Shiqu must use poisonous smoke to deal with the madman army in the corridor
Main force.
There are human cavalry in the south to seal the seal, and there are human infantry in the north fighting to the death. This twenty-mile canyon will be the burial ground of the enemy.
Gu Yuqi stood at the highest point of the Yingzui Cliff defense line, looking at the tragic battlefield below with a sad look on his face.
He has participated in several human catastrophes, and such a tragic battle situation is rare among the countless catastrophic battles he has experienced in the past.
The only ones that can be compared with it are the Battle of Motian Cliff, the Battle of Wuming Pass and the decisive battle of Kunlun Mountain six thousand years ago.
All the Skyfire Beasts in the canyon have burned and exploded. The Skyfire Beasts in the wasteland have been washed away last night. Now Gu Yuqi only has two roads.
One is to break out of the human defense circle through the discovered mountain tunnel.
The second is a frontal attack to break through the enemy's Yingbelly Mountain defense line.
He knew that he was defeated, but he absolutely did not want to bear the reputation of having his entire army wiped out. No matter what, he would lead a group of defeated soldiers and rush out of this damn place.
He had already received the news that the Six Celestial Tribes had been defeated in the battle at Qixing Mountain and had retreated to southern Xinjiang. Now he no longer expected to win the battle. He just wanted to escape here with hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands of defeated troops.
As for surrender, he had never thought about it.
The glory and pride of heavenly beings will never allow him to have the thought of surrender.
At dawn, Gu Yuqi said to his men: "Stop the attack in the canyon and bring up the giant army."
The fighting in the canyon suddenly stopped, and only the brutal fighting was still taking place in the corridor.
The fire had been extinguished, and Zhao Shiqu stood at the highest point of Eagle Belly Mountain again, with the flag representing the coach flying once again.
After the heavenly army retreated to the third line of defense, the drums on the human side also started to sound.
Zhao Shiqu held the sound transmission stone tightly and said hoarsely: "General Qu, the war between you and the soldiers is over. Quickly withdraw from the battlefield. The main army will take over next." Then, he began to issue orders: "Twenty-seventh
, the twenty-eight attack echelon, immediately entered the battlefield, took over the front line of defense, and the follow-up attack echelon moved south. I, Zhao Shiqu, am sitting at the highest point of Yingbelly Mountain, watching you kill the enemy.
Under my feet!" After hearing Zhao Shiqu's order, Zhan Ying stopped dispatching militiamen into the canyon. The gap occupied by the militiamen was quickly taken over by the forwards of the 27th attack echelon who came from Fist Mountain behind.
Regularity armed to the teeth
The main force marched into the valley along the gap with neat steps.
After entering the canyon, these regular troops began to clean the battlefield and smoothen the corpses in the valley.
At this time yesterday, there were only two to three feet high corpses pushed in the valley. Now the corpses have been piled up to four feet high. It is foreseeable that the corpses will continue to pile up, maybe even higher than the Eagle Belly Mountain to the north.
high.
After this war is over, it will probably take a long time just to clean up the millions of corpses in the valley.
Human corpses are relatively easy to clean up, but it is not that difficult to clean out the corpses of those tall giant warriors.
However, Zhan Ying feels that it is no longer necessary to clean up the corpses here. This battle is a one-and-done deal. In the future battle between heaven and man, heaven will no longer be able to only attack a few points like it is now.
After learning from the experience of this failure, future reinforcements from the heavenly realm will definitely avoid those heavily defended passes in the human world and attack multiple gathering points in the middle-earth. Even the next time the Gate of Catastrophe appears,
It is not impossible to give Middle Earth a center to bloom within the inner belly of the Middle Earth.
