"No, I have to go back and report to the king quickly!"
Seeing more and more blood monsters coming from a distance, especially some huge blood monsters, they were not afraid of the fire at all and rushed up the high wall with roars.
Qiao Feng stirred up his spirit, turned into a breeze, and flew back.
"Send someone to investigate, what is going on?"
Qiao Feng left with admiration. On the high wall, the face of Linhai Marquis Peng Qianhai also turned green.
All along, he has sent countless spies to monitor the movements of Langya's defense line.
As soon as the blood tide broke out, he ordered fires and cannons to drive away the blood monsters.
But who would have thought that it didn't matter if he didn't set fire or cannon. Once the cannon was fired and the fire was set off, the blood tide that was originally moving slowly towards Langya suddenly turned around and surged towards him instead.
"Why exactly?
What went wrong?
Aren’t all blood monsters afraid of fire?”
These questions kept running through his mind, but he had no answers.
"Master Marquis, could it be because the cannons made too much noise? The Langya people had three artillery battalions, but not a single shot was fired!"
There are still smart people, a fifth-level general ran over in a hurry.
"Impossible. Blood monsters are just like wild beasts. They will avoid fires and explosions when they see them. How could it be because there is too much noise?" Peng Qianhai, the Marquis of Linhai, scolded angrily.
These methods were all told by his Shui Tribe son-in-law. How could they be wrong? He didn't believe them.
"Master Marquis, it is better to believe that it is true than to believe that it is not. Langya will never stop firing for no reason. Why don't we stop the bombardment?"
"Yes, Lord Marquis, there are too many blood monsters, and there are so many high-level blood monsters. The Shui tribe's army is retreating. If we don't think of a way, we will have no choice but to escape!"
The surrounding Huaibei County generals tried to persuade him, but even the Shui Tribe generals present had a gloomy look on their face and did not say a word.
"Send my order, stop the bombardment!"
Seeing that many defense lines were breached, the 200,000 Shui Tribe troops had fled back, leaving only the 300,000 Lin Haijun troops still standing firm.
The prince Peng Youhuo ignored him, grabbed his father's arm, and issued an order beyond his authority.
"Obey the order, we listen to the prince!" At the critical moment of life and death, all the generals did not care so much, and they all clasped their fists together to accept the order.
Soon, the sound of the cannons stopped, but unfortunately the trebuchets were still throwing barrels of kerosene, and the fire burned fiercely, even more intensely.
Everyone was willing to believe that the noise of the artillery was too great, but they were unwilling to give up the role of the fire in blocking the enemy. After all, the low-level blood monsters were burned to death in the fire, and everyone could see it.
After observing for a moment, the blood monster's offensive not only did not weaken, but even the city wall tens of meters high collapsed in several places!
More than 300,000 naval troops were surrounded by a black tide of blood. There was no way to escape, and they were annihilated right before their eyes.
"I told you it had nothing to do with artillery, but you didn't listen. Quick, the whole army retreats!"
Peng Qianhai, the Marquis of Linhai, had a dark face and glared at his unfilial son with dissatisfaction. Under the protection of several masters of the Hai tribe, he hurriedly evacuated on a bird.
"Your Majesty, let's go. We can't stop you anymore. Turn around and admit your mistake to the Marquis!" A trusted general came forward and pulled Peng Youhuo onto a flying bird.
"Why is this happening? It's not because of the sound of cannons? What could that be?" Peng Youhuo was confused and followed the others on the bird.
He couldn't figure it out until he was flying high in the sky!
Like everyone else, he didn't expect the fire to be the culprit.
"Roar!" Deep in the black blood tide, the hundred-meter-long blood monster king lay lazily on the ground.
The mouth opened wide, and the half-cooked corpses roasted in the fire, whether they were blood monsters or humans, all flew into the mouth automatically.
Chewing it with great enjoyment, I moved my long legs and walked towards the collapsed high wall in the distance.
A human figure urinating on it flashed through his mind, and the fierce light in his eyes deepened.
As the beloved of the Dark Side Ogu God, he finally went out for a walk and was provoked by a mortal?
At the same time, the Langya Army commanded the main tent. Baimu Qingfu had a bandage on his head, and his arms were hanging with flaming blood and green light. A group of high-ranking generals who had taken a break from the battlefield were surrounding Li Wenhao to complain.
"Your Highness, it's so tragic. The last general's Golden Crow Army lost 60,000 to 70,000 people in less than an hour of fighting.
If you hadn't urgently dispatched ten thousand fire spirits up there, we probably wouldn't have been able to withdraw!" Baimu Qingfu said something emotional and pretended to rub his eyes.
"No, it's not as serious as you said!" Li Wenhao was almost overcome with embarrassment and waved his hands in disgust.
Is it okay to talk nonsense if you really pretend that the other person is not present?
Obviously, Xuan Mo Dao's Huaibei Army went up in time. The Golden Crow Army suffered heavy losses, but they did not suffer losses of 60,000 to 70,000 people, less than 50,000 at most.
More than 200,000 blood monsters were annihilated. This ratio is already very good.
The more than 10,000 fire spirits that were temporarily dispatched came out in just over an hour.
There are also more than 5,000 golden-armored warriors. We plan to send them up together with Chao Zhong from the Eastern Legion before dark. By then, there may be 10,000 fire spirits and more than 5,000 golden-armored warriors.
In addition, the various elixirs and materials that exploded are countless!
He couldn't tell what it felt like, but Li Wenhao felt strange in his heart, as if he was exchanging the lives of ordinary soldiers for special soldiers.
But this is war, and he has no choice.
"Your Highness!"
Yanxue Qingguang followed closely and said: "Even if the situation is not as bad as Baimu said, General Chi You does not allow cannons to be fired or set fires, and only allows the soldiers to use cold weapons to fight against the blood tide.
What do you mean by doing this, you can make the blood tide move toward Linhai County?
Isn’t this nonsense?”
"Your Highness, if the fight continues like this, our three armies, the Golden Crow Army, the Huaibei Army, and the Eastern Army, will collapse within three days!"
"Yes, what the military advisor said is reasonable. The loss today is estimated to be more than 100,000 people.
According to this ratio, even if we mobilize all the troops from across the country, we will not be able to withstand this winter!"
"Your Highness, you should give General Chi You the order to fire. We really can't continue fighting like this, otherwise we will only retreat!"
After Yanxue Qingguang finished speaking, military advisor Fu Baichuan and eastern garrison commander Chao Zhong all spoke with solemn expressions. Their words expressed strong dissatisfaction with Chi You.
"I know all what you said, but Chi You patted his chest and promised me, how about we wait and see?" Li Wenhao rubbed his bare head, feeling a headache.
It feels really awkward to have a group of subordinates sue you in front of you.
I feel like having an attack, but I can't find a good reason.
"Hmph!" Qingluan, who had been standing behind and fuming, couldn't bear it any longer and said: "Who did I think said the blood monster would seek the light? It turned out to be General Chi You?
Do you believe this?
I want to go back to the Queen and ask her to comment on it!"
"Yes, come to the queen, she is a sensible person!" When the generals saw that Li Wenhao was clearly protecting Chi You, they all shouted.
Suddenly, Irina's market price rose and she became a popular figure.
