"Shangguan Ziyi! You lead the team and charge through this path! We must rescue Commander Nangong Hao!"
"It's impossible! What's the use of rushing in? If the way back is cut off, we still won't be able to return!"
Yes, it seems he was too hasty after all.
Bu Liuqing unleashed a whirlwind attack, killing more than a dozen Seven-Star Demons, while a long-dead Eight-Star Demon Guardian lay beside him.
However, the new eight-star demon will soon arrive here, and he still won't be able to take care of this passage. So Shangguan Ziyi is right; they can't risk attacking like that.
"What did headquarters say? What's the situation with Commander Nangong Hao?"
"They've...lost contact..."
Upon hearing Shangguan Ziyi's reply, Bu Liuqing's expression darkened. Losing contact now did not mean that they had been completely annihilated, but rather that they had been completely surrounded by the enemy.
They had to get there quickly. They never expected that Marshal Nangong Hao's central attack tactic would turn them into bait.
"A full-scale attack! A full-scale attack regardless of the cost! Decades ago, our predecessors fought a bloody battle against the demons and finally drove them back to the Demon Abyss. Now they are nothing but a bunch of defeated enemies!"
"Get moving, everyone!"
But this is destined to be a protracted war, regardless of which battlefield it is on.
Whether it's Nangong Hao, Bu Liuqing, or Wei Sha.
They each have their own battlefield.
This continued until the third day of the counterattack on Huainan City.
Vesa returned to the Mechanical King with the heads of four eight-star magical beasts in his hands.
Mechanical King truly held the line. In the past two and a half days, he worked with Han Fangfang to hold off tens of thousands of magical beasts. Zhai Chi also completed the task assigned to him by Wei Sha very well, and opened a gap in the encirclement for Chu Tai and the others.
After the two forces joined forces, only 12,000 of the 20,000 soldiers that Chu Tai had brought with him remained, while Wei Sha and his men had maintained their strength well. During this period, more than 2,000 of them had died in battle, leaving 28,000 troops.
Although they lost nearly 10,000 soldiers, the monsters suffered even greater losses!
A total of 80,000 monsters died in the battle, including a large number of seven-star monsters and five eight-star monsters.
One was killed by Tang Ningchuan and Xie Ran, while the other four were magical beasts that ambushed Weisha but were killed in turn.
Seeing the situation was not good, the monsters immediately retreated. The monsters that were originally going to provide support also immediately contracted their defenses and chose to rest outside first before plotting against Huainan City.
Meanwhile, the battle on the sect's side was progressing very smoothly. The demons, having been attacked from the rear, had no intention of continuing to fight the sect's soldiers. However, a battle is not something you can simply run away from.
The sect disciples, who were still gritting their teeth and holding on, immediately shouted slogans of great victory and began to chase after the monsters with all their might when they saw the monsters begin to retreat!
In an instant, the monster army, which still had a numerical advantage, was divided into pieces and had no cohesion whatsoever!
They're completely fighting their own battles!
Well, that's to be expected, since in the Warcraft race, decisions are usually made among the clan leaders before being passed on to their own tribes.
As a result, too many eight-star and seven-star magical beasts had died in the previous ambush, causing a considerable number of magical beasts to hesitate when receiving orders.
That's why the current situation has arisen.
The battle at the East Gate was nearing its end when the sect's troops arrived a day later to join them.
Warcraft suffered a crushing defeat!
Casey personally brought the corpses of the eight-star bronze scorpion beast and the ghost eagle demon to Wesa.
As of now, eight of the 22 eight-star magical beasts at the East Gate have died, bringing the total number of magical beasts killed to over 200,000. The military region has suffered a total of 20,000 casualties, and the sect has suffered a total of 8,000 casualties.
But it was a glorious and resounding victory!
During their attack, the North Gate was invaded by monsters again, but it was also repelled.
This operation to defeat the enemy was a great success. The monsters will not be able to organize an effective attack for a short time, and this is the first time that everyone has learned about the number of the main force of the monsters at the East Gate.
There are still nearly 300,000 Warcraft players!
If we include the monster fodder from the North Gate and the monsters from other gates, the total number is roughly 800,000!
Everyone was stunned when they learned of this number.
It should be noted that Huainan City initially had only 30,000 soldiers, and even with the sect disciples included, the total number was less than 100,000.
That's 30,000 vs. 800,000! Even with the Weisha troops that came to our aid later, it was only a little over 70,000 soldiers. Add to that the 10,000 reserves that were urgently conscripted from Huainan City during this period, and the total number of soldiers was only 80,000.
But now they have actually achieved the glorious result of breaking through the North Gate and severely damaging the main force of the East Gate monsters!
Such a victory would be considered a top-tier achievement even within the military region headquarters!
Many reporters interviewed Chu Tai after everyone returned victorious, but Chu Tai and Wei Sha didn't have time to participate in such interviews, so they left them to their subordinates.
Liu Lang was awkwardly intercepted.
"Young man, our army's great victory has aroused strong reactions among the residents of Huainan City. May I ask if the military region will continue to take such actions?"
Has the crisis in Huainan been resolved? And...?
Liu Lang was completely confused, but then he remembered the words Bu Xiaosai had taught him at the Polar Night University.
"If you encounter a question you don't know how to answer, you can do this..."
Liu Lang's eyes gradually cleared, and he spoke calmly to the reporter in front of him.
