The Western Army, which was the first to break out of the sealing formation, boarded the divine ship one after another.
They were safe for the time being, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, they did not dare to say that they were completely safe and did not dare to take it lightly until they got rid of the pursuit of the Western Expeditionary Army.
The five divine ships deliberately slowed down and flew towards the southwest.
They cannot wait outside the formation for the other half of the soldiers to escape.
We can only fly to the southwest first and wait for the remaining soldiers to catch up.
Whether those soldiers can escape from the sealing formation and survive depends on God's will.
This method of cutting off the strength of a strong man to save more people is also recognized by the five forces.
Soon, ten breaths of time passed.
The five divine ships left the sealing formation and flew a hundred thousand miles away.
One after another, more than 800 soldiers, covered in blood and seriously injured, caught up with each family's divine ship.
The remaining nearly a thousand soldiers were trapped near the sealing formation and were unable to escape.
Seeing this scene, Chief Wanyan issued an order decisively.
"Abandon the remaining people, no longer wait, let's move forward at full speed and get rid of the opponent's pursuit as soon as possible!"
As his order was conveyed, the five divine ships immediately began to accelerate, bursting out at their fastest speed, and fled towards the southwest.
at the same time.
Inside and outside the hole in the sealing formation, there were more than 800 soldiers, who were besieged by thousands of Western Expedition troops.
When the Western Army was escaping just now, they were at the end of the team. After being intercepted by the Western Army, they could no longer leave.
They all thought that the divine ships and armies of each family were still outside the sealing formation, waiting for them to break through.
Therefore, everyone tried their best to break through at any cost.
In their opinion, as long as they break out of the sealing formation, they can survive and escape.
But it is a pity that the number of the Western Expeditionary Army was several times their number.
Even the Commander-in-Chief of the Internal Affairs and Canglan Immortal personally took action and used their supreme magical powers to intercept the Western Army near the hole.
As a result, the more than 800 Western Route troops were quickly besieged to death and wiped out.
They didn't know it until their death. In fact, the army on the west route had given up on them long ago and sped away.
Twenty breaths later, the battle near the hole finally ended.
The earth-shattering loud noise and the divine light filling the sky are also gradually dissipating.
Although the Western Expeditionary Army achieved victory, in this ambush battle, a total of more than 1,500 people from the Western Route Army were killed.
However, there was no trace of happiness on the faces of the internal affairs commander and Canglan Wudian. Instead, his expressions were gloomy and very angry.
At the end of the battle, they rushed out of the hole in the formation without hesitation, leading thousands of soldiers in pursuit toward the southwest.
"The mission given to us by the Imperial Master is to completely annihilate the Western Army, thereby weakening the forces of the Rebel Alliance and shocking the Haotian Continent.
But now, we have only killed more than 1,500 people and allowed the main force of the West Route Army to escape!
How should we explain this result to the Imperial Master?"
"Eight thousand elite soldiers set up an ambush here in advance and successfully ambushed the weak West Route Army.
They actually failed to destroy the opponent and even allowed their main force to escape!
If the Imperial Master knows about this, he will definitely accuse us of being unfavorable and incompetent!"
On the way to pursue the West Route Army, the internal affairs commander and Cang Lan Bu Mie had such thoughts in their minds.
Thousands of the Western Expeditionary Army also understood this truth.
Therefore, everyone could not be happy, so they could only hold on tight and fly with all their strength.
However.
In the end, the death of more than 800 Western Route troops gave the main army twenty seconds of precious time.
When the Commander-in-Chief of Internal Affairs and Canglan Bumie led the Western Expeditionary Army and began the pursuit, the Western Army had already fled 400,000 miles away.
Moreover, the leaders of the five forces consumed resources at all costs to keep the divine ship flying at extremely high speeds.
No matter how fast the Western Expeditionary Army moved, they could not close the distance between the two sides.
Even though the two sides chased each other high in the sky for half an hour, the Western Expeditionary Army still could not see the shadow of the Western Route Army.
The distance between the two sides also remains at around 300,000 miles.
The most important thing is that the West Route Army, under the command of Clan Chief Wanyan, did not fly in a straight line.
Every time it flies hundreds of thousands of miles, the divine ship will slightly adjust its direction and change its route.
Such a simple method can effectively slow down the Western Expeditionary Army's pursuit.
After all, the most powerful people in the Western Expeditionary Army are the Commander-in-Chief of Internal Affairs and Canglan Immortal, and the consciousness of these two people can only explore ninety thousand miles.
They could not detect any trace of the West Route Army, let alone guess the opponent's escape route.
They can only judge the opponent's route of advancement based on the remaining divine power fluctuations of the five divine ships during the pursuit.
And every time the West Route Army changes direction, the Internal Affairs Commander and Canglan Immortal will spend several breaths of time casting spells to detect the fluctuations of divine power left by the other party.
This slowed down the Western Expeditionary Army and made it impossible to catch up with the Western Army.
Regarding the cunning of the West Route Army, the Commander-in-Chief of Internal Affairs and Canglan Buchu were very angry and contemptuous, but they could do nothing.
…
Unknowingly, an hour passed.
The fierce pursuit continues, and both sides have flown more than 20 million miles.
Both sides have consumed a huge amount of resources, but the distance between them is still about 350,000 miles.
Obviously, if this situation continues, the Western Expeditionary Army will never be able to catch up with the Western Army.
Unless... the resources of the West Route Army are exhausted, or the divine ship is broken down.
But there is little hope for this kind of thing.
Even if it happens, it will take ten days and a half.
By that time, the West Route Army had already fled back to the core of the Rebel Alliance's territory, and other armies had already arrived to support them.
What's even more frightening is that the Sword God will come to support you within ten days and a half.
Therefore, the commander-in-chief of the internal affairs and Canglan Immortal began to hesitate.
The two stood in the cab of the divine ship, looking at the sky in front of them, discussing with gloomy faces.
"The army on the west route was ambushed and suffered heavy losses. They will definitely send a message to the Sword God.
Now the Sword God knows about this and is probably on his way to provide support."
"Given the distance between the Sword God and us, we need to travel for half a month to get there.
But the Sword God cannot use common sense to guess, and it is estimated that it will only take three days at the earliest to arrive.
In other words, we only have three days at most.
If we cannot catch up with the West Route Army within three days, we should give up.
Otherwise, if you encounter the Sword God who comes to support you, the result will be the opposite."
"Your speculation is correct, but it was based on the situation when the Sword God had just learned the news.
What if the Sword God has the ability to predict the future and predict in advance that the West Route Army will be ambushed?
Three days? I think two days at most!"
"The Sword God is indeed not a normal person. He can always create miracles and do incredible things.
In fact, even if we hunt for two days, it won't make much sense.
