669 Troops At The Back (1/2)
”General Zong and General Ren are both Unparalleled Famous Generals. Even in Great Shang, they could be Commanders and might even be made a Marquis. However, it was the Ruler's blessing for them to be willing to serve Gantian...”
Kong Yao's eyes flashed, filled with many emotions.
She didn't expect that Ren Tianxing would fight this battle to such a level.
She also didn't understand why such a talent would be willing to come to such a secluded land like Donglin?
No matter where he was, such a talent would have a great future.
Did Zong Shou really have some special charm? Such that all these talents were willing to listen to his orders?
A moment later, the situation below changed.
Right in the middle, the Night Demon Army stopped blocking the attacks of those 100,000 Red Amored Soldiers.
Many of them retreated from the front and lined up 10,000 feet at the back.
Not long later, a really wide and firm formation was spread out. Two wings spread out in a concave moon shape. They were showing signs of pincering the hundreds of thousands of Ren Tianxing's troops.
It was also the same case on the side of Zong Yuan and the 500,000 Night Demons. They weren't anxious to help their other race members and their formation was really orderly as they pressed over.
There was also another 100,000 who were carefully covering the retreat path of the Red Armored Cavalry.
Kong Yao frowned, her eyes filled with unwillingness, ”There are some talents there too...”
Decisively cutting their own meat to prevent the situation from getting worse. Such decisiveness could only be built up from years on the battlefield.
Actually during these three months they were already really clear about the commanding ability of the Night Demon Generals.
So from the start Kong Yao didn't have any hope of crushing them at once.
If the enemy was so easy to handle, then she wouldn't need to use those various methods to force Prince Jia Mingluo to fight to the death with her here.
As expected, after Ren Tianxing crushed the enemy at the front, they stopped chasing.
They formed up once more and warily looked at the enemy retreat.
They backed off to the destroyed stone castle and then stopped.
It was the same on the side of Zong Yuan. The Iron Cavalry trampled over and collected tens of thousands of Night Demons. He also stopped whilst he was up, turning around and retreating back to their original position.
Although the Night Demons suffered a loss of 130,000 they still had the advantage.
However, it wasn't that their attacks were of no use at all. Although they didn't crush the enemy, they drained their enemies' morale!
Since the sky turned dark, they were on the back foot against the Night Demon attacks. It made one slowly numb, seeking death in despair.
However, this small victory seemed to have made all the soldiers beneath the mountain see some hope.
So this Night Demon Army could be beaten and weren't invincible!
So they could fight back! Gantian Mountian army had strong Generals like Ren Tianxing and Zong Yuan!
If they persisted who knows if they would be able to win and be able to live...
The opposite side was evidently more careful in using troops. Looking down from the peak, he could see more troops being shifted over from the two wings.
They placed a full 600 10,000 men formations in the middle.
It caused the pressure on the two wings to instantly relax.
Ren Tianxing was unafraid. The 500,000 Red Armored Warriors still lined up after the ruins, their aura like that of a mountain which stood tall!
Zong Shou took in a deep breath. With Ren Tianxing's ability, he should be able to defend till the sun rises.
At that time they wouldn't be able to lose. It would be whether they win more or win less...
However, what was next would be the battle of attrition, the most cruel part.
The Night Demon Main General took a little loss just now and wouldn't underestimate Ren Tianxing.
This mountain would become a meat grinder!
Just as his brow furrowed, there was suddenly a ripple in the night sky. A talisman sped through the air.
The guards nearby all nervously turned around and looked at it.
Zong Shou's eyebrows rose up as he looked over. When the talisman entered his eyes he wasn't surprised, just slightly startled.
He waved his hands to tell the people around to not need to be wary. He reached out and grabbed it. Sending his Spiritual Sense in, he knew that it was from Common People's Path Head Fangwen.
It just talked about concern for his safety and that they were unable to be totally relaxed about this battle.
7,000 Common People Mysterious Dragon Warriors had already rushed over to Huizhou and could rush over at any moment to help him.
