Le Gang's face was gloomy.
The war had barely begun when a breach was forcibly made in the Great Wall.
You have to understand, he was the commander-in-chief in charge of the Eastern Front, so he definitely wouldn't benefit from settling old scores later.
Due to the violent explosion, the breach in the Great Wall was blasted into an even larger size than before, and the damage was completely beyond repair using supernatural abilities.
Those awakened individuals from Zhongzhou who originally came to stop them were all reduced to mangled limbs in the suicide bombing just now; none of them survived.
Those who witnessed this tragic scene from the Great Wall were all stunned. A deathly silence fell over them, and no one could utter a word. Even their breathing seemed to be clearly audible.
The entire venue was completely silent; only those present could truly grasp the terror of such a self-destruct attack.
However, Le Gang did not intend to give up immediately and wanted to buy some more time. He immediately gave a loud order:
"All troops on the Great Wall, listen up! Immediately move towards the breach."
"We must stop the Eternal Flame Alliance's attack!"
Upon receiving the order, many more soldiers from Zhongzhou rushed to the breach to defend it.
at the same time.
On the opposite side of the battlefield, a massive, dark army of Eternal Fire was watching all of this with predatory eyes.
Watching the daredevil team fight to the death, risking their lives to break through the Great Wall defenses and create a breach, this scene deeply shocked the hearts of every Yonghuo warrior.
A solemn and melancholic atmosphere quickly spread through the hearts of every member of the Eternal Fire unit, eventually coalescing into a surging fighting spirit that erupted within the Eternal Fire warriors.
"The flame will never be extinguished!"
Commander Yonghuo's eyes widened, his hair stood on end in fury, and he shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Charge! Avenge our brave and fearless brothers!"
His voice boomed like thunder in the air, echoing endlessly.
"revenge!"
"revenge!"
Hearing the commander's hoarse roar, the already high-spirited Eternal Fire Army behind them instantly became even more excited.
The crowd, filled with fervor, joined in the shouts, like an unstoppable torrent rushing towards the breach in the Great Wall.
In an instant, shouts of battle resounded through the sky, deafeningly loud.
It looked like the Great Wall was about to fall.
Li Yu, standing on the Great Wall, watched the approaching Eternal Fire army, then turned and glanced at the massive cannon beside him.
Li Yu began to have doubts. He didn't even dare to think about how many people in the Eternal Fire Alliance would die if this shot was fired.
He really couldn't understand why, at such a critical moment, the Central Plains defense line still didn't use giant cannons to intercept, nor did it send tanks to support them, and there weren't even many heavy weapons on the Great Wall.
Do they have some other tricks up their sleeve?
But the current situation leaves no room for a second move.
Just as Li Yu was filled with doubt, she suddenly heard Ma Yuanbai's voice.
“Population,” Ma Yuanbai uttered softly.
Upon hearing this, Li Yu subconsciously turned around and repeated, "Population?"
Ma Yuanbai seemed to already know the reason, and took the initiative to step forward and slowly explain:
"In order to reduce the population."
"Using weapons to directly annihilate the Eternal Fire Army would be completely ineffective."
"As you've seen along the way, the population of the Central Plains region is simply too large, and the same is true for the surrounding allied cities. With ample food, the rate at which humans reproduce is astonishing."
"In addition, with the arrival of the Water Era, the land sank and space was compressed. The Central Plains, which could not accommodate more people to begin with, also had to face the continuous westward migration of people from all directions."
At this point, Ma Yuanbai pointed to the several thousand people behind Li Yu and continued:
"Even our group of refugees managed to reach the Central Plains defense line. Can you imagine how many people are gathered in the entire Central Plains right now?"
“They must control the population size, otherwise the Central Plains will be overwhelmed. This is not only a problem of food, but also a problem of living space.”
"When the population becomes too large to be digested, war becomes inevitable."
Ma Yuanbai couldn't help but recall that his former shelter had used a similar method to reduce the population.
At the time, the shelter deliberately provoked a conflict with the nearby safe zone. Many people died in that battle, but it did greatly alleviate the population pressure inside the shelter.
After hearing these words, Li Yu immediately understood.
He immediately understood the true intentions behind the seemingly unusual instructions and actions issued by Zhongzhou.
However, even though he had already realized it, he still couldn't help but feel a little surprised:
"There are actually such methods."
Hearing Li Yu's exclamation, Ma Yuanbai could only shake his head with a helpless wry smile:
"This is just a necessary means to maintain stability and resource balance; those people have many other means."
After figuring everything out, Li Yu's expression suddenly turned serious; he realized the gravity of the situation.
"So, they never even considered holding the Central Plains defense line?"
Sure enough, after seeing the breach in the Great Wall, Xu Lin, who had been watching the battle, decided not to stay there any longer.
However, before leaving, Xu Lin made a special trip over to call Li Yu, since Li Yu was now a promising stock that he was personally betting on and would focus on cultivating.
"Li Yu, get ready to evacuate with me," Xu Lin whispered as he approached.
"Okay." Li Yu nodded without hesitation and immediately followed.
After learning the truth, Li Yu certainly didn't intend to stay on the Great Wall; he didn't want to be cut off as a surplus of people in Zhongzhou.
Just then, Le Gang, standing atop the Great Wall, suddenly unleashed his full power, activating his superpower once again.
In an instant, he transformed into a metal giant, leaping high into the air.
The various metal objects that were originally still all around suddenly seemed to be drawn by some mysterious force and began to rapidly converge on Le Gang's location.
Le Gang actually planned to use these metals to forcibly seal the huge gap in the Great Wall, thereby reversing the current unfavorable war situation in one fell swoop.
Just as Le Gang was unleashing his full power, Commander Yong Huo flew out from the opposing enemy camp, his body transforming into a completely fluid mercury-like state, and roared at Le Gang:
"Don't even dream about it! You're not the only superhuman!"
Before he could finish speaking, Commander Yonghuo suddenly swung his arm, and countless drops of mercury rained down.
A series of crackling sounds rang out, and the numerous metal objects that had just gathered around Le Gang were instantly knocked to the ground as if hit by a storm.
Le Gang glared angrily at the other man. He knew that with this guy causing trouble, the breach would be difficult to repair.
As the Eternal Fire army drew ever closer, Xu Lin's heart leaped into his throat.
He can't leave now; he has to run.
Xu Lin ran off in a panic, not forgetting to turn back and urge him on:
"Li Yu, hurry!"
"Forget everything else, let's get out of here!"
