Groton nodded: "Okay. But our army needs a temporary rest."
The demon army has to march hundreds of kilometers in a hurry, which consumes a lot of physical and spiritual energy. If they don't take a rest at this time and continue marching to the Wangtu River Valley, the combat effectiveness of the entire army will be reduced by 30%.
Huo Dan said: "Master Demon General, the King of Disaster has more specific instructions regarding this war."
"Say it."
"You can divide your troops into two parts," Huo Dan said. "Half of the cannon fodder troops will go to the Wangtu River battlefield first to consume the enemy's strength. As for the other half of the elite troops, they can join up with the monster troops rushing over.
, then go to the battlefield and wipe out the enemy's exhausted troops."
"Monster troops?" Groton repeated.
Huo Dan nodded: "Yes, it is the monster army that assisted the King of Disaster, wiped out two thousand skeleton soldiers, and thwarted the undead conspiracy."
Groton narrowed his eyes and said, "Wait a minute, is this really an order from the King of Disaster?"
"Absolutely true."
Huo Dan took out a devil's eye and said, "You can confirm with the Lord of Disaster."
Groton said: "I will do it myself." He did not take the devil's eye from Huo Dan's hand, but took out a devil's eye himself and injected it with evil energy.
The Devil's Eye lifted into the sky and expanded rapidly.
Soon, the voice of the King of Disaster came from the huge green eyeball: "Golaton."
"The Great Lord of Disaster."
Groton knelt down and said, "Your humble servant Groton, I ask for your personal instructions."
Groton could feel the violent spiritual power of the King of Disaster from this sound, which was no different from the previous sounds.
"I have ordered Huo Dan to deliver the specific instructions. You just need to follow them."
There seemed to be a hint of impatience in the rumbling voice.
Groton said hurriedly: "Yes, great king of disaster, my subordinates will definitely obey your instructions."
After the green devil's eye shrank, it fell into Groton's palm again.
"Master Demon General, do you have any other questions?" Huo Dan said.
"there is none left."
Groton asked, "I will leave the elite troops here and wait for the monster beast troops to gather. How long will it take for the monster beasts to arrive?"
Huo Dan said: "Soon. When I conveyed the order, they were already forming a team and preparing to set off."
Groton nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
From Groton's perspective, this combat instruction from the Lord of Disaster is actually questionable.
Use half of the army as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's strength in order to achieve final victory. Even if you win, it will only be a miserable victory.
Since there are monster troops as backup, it is better to join the demon army directly and face the opponent with the strongest army. It is possible to directly defeat the opponent and achieve a hearty victory!
This is also the reason why Groton is suspicious of the orders of the Lord of Disaster.
However, since it was confirmed to be the order from the Lord of Disaster, it would be fine.
Anyway, in this war, no demons will really die, and the dead demons will be reborn after a certain period of time.
Regardless of whether it is a tragic victory or a complete victory, as long as victory is enough, the result will not be different. It is just to please the King of Silver and make the King of Disaster more proud.
At that moment, Groton ordered three demon lords to lead 5,000 demon troops and continue to the Wangtu Valley.
Most of these five thousand demons are cannon fodder troops such as Little Lemurs, Styx Imps, Blade Demons, etc. They are the cheapest and weakest units.
The other powerful troops, such as the Destruction Demon and the Pain Demon, stayed in place according to the order of the Lord of Disaster, waiting to join the monster troops.
…
"Why haven't you arrived yet?"
Groton was a little impatient. It had been an hour since Huodan left.
The other demon lords advised one after another: "Master Demon General, those monster beasts are not worth relying on. Why don't we go into the battlefield first?"
Groton shook his head: "No, this is the order of the Lord of Disaster, and we must obey it."
Waited for some time.
Finally, Groton and other powerful demon lords sensed a large number of spiritual energy fluctuations coming from the distance.
"Coming!"
A demon lord shouted excitedly.
On the ground in the distance, a large group of monsters, led by a giant snow-white wolf, ran towards the direction of the demon army.
Groton greeted him.
"Are you the new mount of the Lord of Disaster?"
"Ouch."
"You...should understand my language, right?"
"Ouch!"
"Okay, you must obey my orders next and make no mistake!"
"Ouch?"
Blue veins appeared on Golaton's forehead.
Suddenly, smoke and dust billowed out from all sides of the Cohuon Hills.
Dense fluctuations of spiritual energy came from all directions.
A demon lord shouted: "Oh no, Lord Groton! We are surrounded!"
"It's the undead! More than 10,000 undead!"
In the distance, ten skeleton phalanxes appeared from four directions, slowly approaching in formation.
"You..." Groton suddenly looked at Raging Claw.
Raging Claw sat on the ground in a standard dog sitting position, looking at Groton with an innocent face.
"We have been fooled!" Groton shouted angrily, "This monster has colluded with the undead. The reason why we have been kept waiting for so long is just to create time for the undead army to encircle us!"
"Where's Huo Dan? He..."
"He must have surrendered to the enemy!" Groton said firmly.
"General Groton, what should we do now?" the demon lords asked in a hurry.
Groton briefly assessed his own strength and immediately calmed down. He said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, although we have divided our troops, the only ones left here are elite troops, and there are still 5,000 troops! Although the enemy has a large number of troops,
, but they are just skeletons worth mentioning. If we compare one to ten, we will definitely defeat the enemy!"
After a pause, Groton shouted: "Don't forget, our greatest advantage is that we are not afraid of death!"
"That's right!"
"We can be reborn!"
The demon lords encouraged their troops one after another, and the morale of the five thousand demon army suddenly rose.
In one of the phalanxes of skeleton soldiers, Bai Xiaowen, who was wearing a hood to hide his whereabouts, narrowed his eyes.
"It seems that they are planning to confront me head-on. As expected, the demon lords are very confident in the quality of their individual soldiers."
"It's a pity that I don't intend to confront you head-on. As a lord of the command system, on this kind of battlefield, my role is equal to that of a king-level powerhouse!"
Bai Xiaowen is actually a bit humble. He himself has a strength comparable to that of a king. As a control system evolver, it is not too much to be worthy of two kings.
True energy erupted violently, and suddenly a black giant phantom appeared in the sky above the ten skeleton soldiers' phalanx.
