The biggest disadvantage of Bailing Pavilion is the lack of manpower. Together with the team that is still chasing Chu Yang, there are only more than 6,000 people in total.

Now they have only more than 2,000 soldiers guarding this side of the canyon. If they don't have the absolute advantage of terrain, they will be easily crushed by the Northern Alliance.

The consequences of losing the position are unimaginable. Jiuye is now sweating profusely, but there is no clever way to change this critical situation. He can only constantly dispatch manpower and quickly distribute it to every corner of every fork.

Bailing Pavilion still maintains the advantage of being high above. The soldiers of the Northern Alliance can only passively take a beating in the battle for the time being, and can hardly launch an effective counterattack against the enemy who is high above.

However, because it takes some time to mobilize troops and supplies, Bailing Pavilion's defense will not be so comprehensive after all. Many forks are unguarded, or weapons and supplies are not delivered to the right place.

These places are equivalent to a temporary safe zone for the Northern Alliance, and are also the most suitable places for them to break through.

Countless metal ladders were placed on the cliffs of the canyon, and the soldiers of the Northern Alliance charged up the ladders with ghosts howling.

The depth of the canyon is 20 to 30 meters, which is almost equivalent to the height of a ten-story building. It is already a long climbing distance for ordinary humans.

Fortunately, the Northern Alliance spent some time in the past few days to carefully make hundreds of lightweight ladders that can be spliced ​​together, so they are not helpless in this canyon.

Jiuye is now a little anxious. Seeing that enemies are splicing ladders everywhere, as if they are about to break through the bottom of the canyon, he decisively ordered a fire attack.

Only a big fire can temporarily stop the battlefield and stabilize the situation.

A large number of kerosene fire pots were thrown into the canyon, and flames immediately rose to the sky near the exit of the space crack.

The kerosene burned very quickly. As the surrounding kerosene fire pots were constantly thrown down, the fire quickly spread to the bottom of the canyon and soon burned to various forks.

In the cold weapon war, fire and water attacks can almost be called a sure kill, and human power cannot resist them at all.

But the Northern Alliance did not have no means of dealing with it. After suffering from fire attacks several times, they also developed a way to counter fire attacks.

They arranged a magic circle outside the storm area and applied simple ice magic armor to the army participating in the attack. Although the spell effect would lose support in the witch world because of the lack of spiritual power, the layer of frost could still condense on the soldiers and play a certain role in resisting the flames.

In addition, every soldier who rushed out of the space channel carried a large amount of sand and soil. When they saw the flames, they threw the sand and soil under their feet. This kind of fire extinguishing effect was far more effective than carrying ice balls out.

While Bailing Pavilion was setting fire, the Northern Alliance was charging and extinguishing the fire, without any intention of giving in.

In this tug-of-war, the Northern Alliance relied on its large number of people and gradually gained more advantages. With the continuous investment of the army, there was a tendency to rush out from the bottom of the canyon.

Chu Yang couldn't help but sweat for Bailing Pavilion at this time.

He didn't want Bailing Pavilion to be destroyed so quickly, but hoped that Bailing Pavilion could consume more of the Northern Allied Forces' troops. Seeing that Bailing Pavilion was about to fail, he began to think about whether to temporarily close the space channel.

But Bailing Pavilion still had a trump card.

Seeing the crisis, Chang Zun finally ordered his subordinates to take out the killer weapon - grenade.

The production of grenade is not complicated, it is nothing more than the problem of gunpowder formula and production process. Many ghost cultivators have some understanding of this modern weapon, and it is also very simple to restore the grenade.

Compared with the ghost cultivators' refining work, the process of making grenade can actually be said to be as simple as the handwork of elementary school students. It is just an iron ball wrapped with some gunpowder.

Bailing Pavilion has already prepared a large number of grenades, just to play a killer role in the witch world.

However, it is difficult to find the raw materials for making gunpowder in the underworld, and although the hand-made production of the weapon refiner is simple, it is not as fast as the assembly line in modern society. Therefore, the number of grenades prepared by Bailing Pavilion is not large, and they are generally not used easily.

But at this critical moment, Bailing Pavilion can no longer consider the consumption of materials, and immediately took out the weapon at the bottom of the box.

As soon as the grenade, a powerful weapon from the modern battlefield, appeared, the situation on the battlefield was quickly stabilized.

Under the bombardment of the grenade, the offensive of the Northern Coalition was immediately cut off, and their subsequent troops had almost no way to rush out of the space channel. They were all blown to pieces at the exit of the channel.

The situation in the other forks was similar. The Northern Coalition had no follow-up force, and the offensive did not have enough troops to support it. Under the coordinated attack of various weapons such as grenades, it was finally gradually annihilated.

Looking at the battlefield full of corpses, Chu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

He wanted to release the ghost beetles to devour the corpses, but he was worried that this would rob the witch world of the life energy it needed, so he had to hold back.

The battle was not over yet. Although the Northern Alliance gave up the large-scale charge due to the threat of grenades, they were still sending small teams of troops to rush out of the space channel.

Small forces were used to consume war supplies. The formation was very loose and the action was faster.

Bailing Pavilion did not waste grenades anymore, and started the attack mode of bows and crossbows plus stones. The battle seemed to have returned to the original state.

Jiuye immediately began to mobilize personnel and supplies, sent out all the teams that were resting on shifts, established more positions around, and surrounded and blocked all the branches in the canyon.

The key point is the location of the exit of the passage. Jiuye deployed more troops this time and concentrated most of the weapons and supplies at the exit of the passage.

"Maybe we should change our defense strategy."

Jiuye asked Chang Zun for instructions: "The situation just now was really dangerous. I think we should block the entrance of the passage and not let those northerners rush in. If there are some omissions, our troops may not be enough, and the consumption of supplies will be greater."

"No, blocking the entrance of the passage too tightly will also cause us a lot of trouble. Don't you find that... the ground near the exit of the passage has been filled up by two meters?"

Chang Zun immediately rejected Jiuye's proposal.
