Valkyrie Storm

Chapter 2331 Luo, the Star of Troubled Times

The sudden withdrawal of Ma Yanwang and others was tantamount to a disaster for the Xingluo front line.

Their departure not only took away the saints, but also affected morale. What was more obvious was that the withdrawal of more than 300 million troops from Yan State swept away [-]% of Xingluo's military strength.

To make matters worse, the three holy lands gave a vague response of "Be safe and don't be impatient" to the solemn request of the Marquis of Beijiang that day.That is to say, immediately after the incident, the executive teams of the three holy places collectively showed a gesture of 'hesitation', which made Beijiang Hou feel deeply worried.

The offensive of the Daqian Dynasty exceeded the expectations of the Marquis of Northern Xinjiang.

On the fourth day after the incident, Zhao Lengsu did not investigate other matters, but concentrated on investigating whether Ma Yanwang and others had evacuated to Jiulongling. Immediately after the verification, the long-quiet Dagan army started again With the sound of the war drums, more than ten million troops marched forward triumphantly, and forcibly pushed them to the battlefield in the western border.

Not only the saints from Zhenyao Temple appeared one after another, but the Holy Spirit Temple also volunteered to participate in this battle.

On December [-], the empire officially broke out!

Zhao Lengsu, the military commander of the Dagan Dynasty, struck out with a heavy fist. On the first day, he pushed all his hidden powers up, and even scattered all the assassination troops of the Holy Spirit Temple and the military assassination troops on the battlefield. Zhao Lengsu He even crossed the sword himself, forced the war, and handed over the command to the advisers.

This kind of attack method that is almost like breaking the boat is extremely rare on the battlefield of the empire. Xingluo did not expect Zhao Lengsu to attack so resolutely. He did not hesitate or be vigilant. Chance.

Zhao Lengsu's madness was reported. On the evening of the day when the Dagan royal family and the counselor group broke out in cold sweat, the Dagan Dynasty broke through across the board, from the sage group to the entire battlefield, and won a complete victory. The defensive front that the Luogu country worked hard to build, pressed the Xingluogu country to retreat layer by layer.

The teams of the Three Great Sacred Grounds were in a state of hesitation at first, but in the end they couldn't stand it anymore and had to go to the battlefield again to assist the ancient Xingluo country to launch a counterattack.

The Xingluo military struggled hard, managed to hold their ground in the early morning of the day, and ended the fierce and stormy war. But even so, the ancient Xingluo country still paid a heavy price after this battle. In just one day, more than Millions of troops were either killed or captured.Including the Marquis of Beijiang, the saints and semi-saints in all districts were seriously injured, and the newly recovered vitality directly returned to the original weak state.

However, the Daqian Dynasty's offensive did not end there, let alone give Xingluo Ancient Kingdom a chance to breathe.

After a short half-day of recuperation, Zhao Lengsu secretly recovered some of the elite forces, held only the assassination troops in his hands, and used them for surprise attacks, and then the whole army launched a continuous onslaught.

From the tenth day onwards, the Dagan Dynasty continued to attack continuously, and the tens of millions of military departments regained their original enthusiasm and revived the pride of war. With the roar of war drums, they walked through the violent wind and rain, shouting the slogan "Long Live Dagan" , Forcibly attacking the ancient country of Xingluo, the offensive wave after wave was higher than the wave.

The Xingluo Ancient Country retreated repeatedly, and there were occasional partial victories, but they could not restore the overall defeat and did not affect the overall trend.It's not that the Marquis of Beijiang didn't try his best, it's that the victory of Xingluo Ancient Kingdom in recent months is all due to the support of Tang Yan's power.

What about now?Although the Three Sacred Lands had provided explicit or covert reinforcements, all of Tang Yan's troops had been withdrawn, and even the elite troops of the three armies had been withdrawn, making the frontline military strength of the Ancient Xingluo Kingdom far behind the Dagan Dynasty.It is very rare to be able to barely keep the front line intact, and it is really impossible to expect victory.This is no longer something that can be influenced and determined by tactics and command capabilities.

When the strength of the two sides is almost the same, tactics and command can play a role, and it may also play a decisive role in reversing, but when there is a huge difference in the overall strength of the two sides, it is no longer the commander who can reverse it.

The continuous defeat on the front line also directly affected the interior of Xingluo Ancient Country. A cloud of tragic defeat once again rose on the front line of the battlefield and diffused towards the country.

People have just recovered from the seven years of war, and now they are facing a new wave of destruction.It is precisely because of the seven years of worry and suffering that the people of Xingluo Ancient Country are more afraid of the more severe crisis now.

On the [-]th, the fifth day after the war broke out, there was another drastic change on the front line.

More than ten days ago, the small and middle-level forces who responded to the request of the royal family to reinforce the front line retreated one after another at such a tense moment, escaped from the front line, and returned to the country.

They were originally ordered to form the special warfare units of the major armies, and they are currently stepping up their special training, so they have not joined forces with the various armies for the time being.If they are allowed to go through a few victorious wars, they may arouse enthusiasm, taste the sweetness, and gradually integrate into the group army.

However, before they were ready to join the group army, they were faced with such a disastrous defeat. The bloody scene and continuous defeat made them fear from the bottom of their hearts.

As a result... without saying hello to the Marquis of Beijiang, a large number of small and medium-sized forces fled in a hurry by taking advantage of the chaos, mobilizing their whole bodies, some of them fled, and the other forces did not hesitate.

The withdrawal of this force once again affected the frontline barracks, and once again reduced the lack of strength in the hands of the Marquis of Beijiang.

The situation on the front line is in disarray.

At this moment, everyone from princes and generals to ordinary people knows the situation of Xingluo Ancient Kingdom. No matter those who supported Tianji Pavilion or Tang Yan before, they all miss Tang Yan's seat now without exception. Peace of mind and peace of mind on the front lines.

People's hearts are always fickle. No matter how much Tianji Pavilion has paid for the empire and what it has shaped, in the face of ruthless war and death, most people choose to forget, and suppress the resentment brought about by the destruction of Tianji Pavilion to the minimum. Call for Tang Yan and others to return.

In fact, the most anxious thing during this period is the royal family.On the one hand, they mobilized new recruits to advance to the front line. On the other hand, they frantically arrested a large number of disciples of Tianji Pavilion, and packed them all into the palace.

After four days and four nights of brutal review, a few pieces of information were finally pieced together.

First, Tang Yan entered the Tianji Pavilion and never came out again!This is a fact!
Second, when Ma Yanwang destroyed the Tianji Pavilion, eight saints appeared unexpectedly, but they were all captured alive by Ma Yanwang and the others.But some people said it was dead, some people said it was useless, and this news cannot be confirmed for the time being.

Third, as early as five months ago, mysterious people visited Tianji Pavilion for several consecutive days, and those mysterious people never left after that.This is top secret, and even many elders don't know it.And those mysterious figures may be the eight saints!

The information search is almost done, but new troubles have come again.Where did the eight martial saints come from, and why did Tianji Pavilion insist on detaining Tang Yan?
The old kings reconsider what Yao Wu said before, and the things that forced them to make choices seem to have a deep meaning.

"The Human Sovereign is currently in the retreat stage."

"After refining the spiritual source liquid provided by Tang Yan, the Human Sovereign's strength has obviously recovered, and he is undergoing in-depth recuperation and recovery. Zeng personally ordered that unless the Dagan Human Sovereign appears, he must not be awakened."

"When is it now, I still care about the Emperor. His Majesty did not expect this to happen, so he went into deep retreat. But now the gate of the empire will be breached soon. If you don't report to the Emperor now, what? time to go?"

"Now is really not the time. We will invite His Majesty the Emperor, but we must make a clear decision beforehand, and we must also have a feasible measure, otherwise we may not survive a few people."

The old kings were arguing fiercely. The sudden incident caught them off guard, and the violent wind and rain made them even more powerless to fight.The corruption of the frontline war made the country panic and made them even more anxious.

Beidou Fighting King suppressed his anger: "I beg of you lords, save your saliva for arguing. You waste one day, and tens of thousands of 10,000+ soldiers were killed or injured on the front line. Now the empire is facing life and death, I beg you to clarify the key points of the matter, put it away Your poor sense of belonging to the Tianji Pavilion. The Tianji Pavilion is gone, and now the only ones who can protect the ancient country of Xingluo are those teams from Jiulongling, and only those more than 20 saints!
Please touch your conscience and tell me what happened that day, what made Ma Long make that decision, what made you rush to Tianji Pavilion overnight, and what did you whisper to Yao Wu!How many secrets are there! "

An old king waved away many irrelevant people, and said in a deep voice: "There is nothing to hide, let me tell you. At that time, Yao Wu reminded us to choose between Tianji Pavilion and Tang Yan. He also added An additional condition is that the Tianji Pavilion has a strength and influence not weaker than that of Tang Yan."

"Why did you delay talking about this kind of thing until now! It's impossible for Yao Wu to let you make this choice for no reason, unless..." Beidou Zhanwang frowned, slightly suppressing his anger: "The eight dead are the forces he refers to? "

"What we are struggling with is this problem. On the surface, Yao Wu should have hidden eight saints, but those people alone should not be enough to make Tang Yan and his five saint companions disappear, so... we guess that Yao Wu may be behind the scenes. It has a deeper power."
