Chapter 402: Eliminate the Remnants of the Monster Clan
After eliminating the Demon King of Huangshan, Zhong Yu led the army to move forward. Three days later, when the 70,000-strong army under his command arrived at the city of Shangqiu, all the demon soldiers in the city had received the news of the fall of the Demon King of Huangshan.
Some demon generals want to resist defending the city under the banner of avenging the demon king of Huangshan, and keep buying people's hearts among the demon soldiers, which seems to have a different purpose.
But there are still some demon generals who think that the enemy's strength is too strong, even the demon king of Huangshan Mountain can't resist, they can't escape, and they have completely fallen. With their remaining demon generals, how can they be opponents.
These people wanted to retreat back to the Thousand Li Mountains, or to redistribute to various places in the Ming Dynasty, and to lurk again, waiting for a good opportunity.
After all, not all monsters are brave and fearless. The truly intelligent monsters, especially those at the level of monster generals, have the same wisdom as ordinary people, or even better.
With a monster general who has his own thinking and basic judgment, the fear of life and death is naturally far greater than that of ordinary monster soldiers.
Therefore, after encountering difficulties and encountering a force they could not stop, the first thing these demon generals thought of was not to resist revenge, but to retreat to save their lives.
In the end, these few demon generals fled with more than 2,000 demon soldiers, completely leaving the whirlpool of Dongjiang Province.
They are either trying to return to the mountains and forests of thousands of miles, or they want to sneak into various places in the Ming Dynasty again, and return to the past happy days.
As for the remaining monster soldiers, there are about 20,000 people in total, but they are divided into 13 factions, each of which has the power of thousands or thousands of people, and they fight endlessly, trying to annex others. Achieve the great cause of the demon king again.
It's a pity that these demon generals may be somewhat different in strength, but they can't compare to the suppression of Huangshan Demon King.
They are dissatisfied with each other and have a lot of filth, so how can they be willing to submit to others.
Without Huangshan Yaowang, the spiritual leader and commander, the remaining 20,000 troops under his command have completely become a chaotic army, with no leader among the dragons.
Therefore, before Zhong Yu led his army to the city of Shangqiu, ready to strike fatally at the monster clan, within three days, several large-scale internal fights broke out among the monster clan.
The faction forces of 13 demon generals are attacking each other, and they want to merge a force of sufficient size before the decisive battle, and they are fighting Zhong Yu to the death.
After they fought and annexed each other, the number of the remaining 20,000 demon soldiers shrank sharply, and finally there were only more than 10,000 people left, commanded by three powerful demon soldiers.
At this moment, the forces among the monsters are somewhat led by someone who can take charge, and they can reach a certain consensus with each other.
Under life and death, the three factions united together, and finally assembled 12,000 troops out of the city to stop them.
Although they knew that this battle was bound to be a battle of ten deaths and no life, but for the glory of the Yaozu, in order to avenge their former master Huangshan Yaowang, coupled with the tyrannical temperament deeply embedded in the blood of the Yaozu, it was their duty to fight. rushed out.
Outside the city of Shangqiu, on a rather vast plain, there used to be fertile fields, but now, in less than half a year, they are all overgrown with weeds, and there are no rice seeds on them, and they are completely deserted.
Just above these deserted fertile fields, the monster clan's 12,000 troops are waiting in formation.
Opposite them, an army of nearly 80,000 people slowly pressed forward, forming a half-moon shape to surround them.
"Sure enough, they are indeed monster soldiers who can wreak havoc on a whole province. Even if the leader is dead, their own numbers will not be able to gain an advantage, but they can still maintain a fierce and fearless aura."
Sitting on a 32-horse horse-drawn horse tailor-made for Zhong Yu, Zhong Yu looked at the demon soldiers in front of him and couldn't help sighing.
Looking from a distance, these demon soldiers could see that the whole monster was filled with murderous aura, entangled with blood energy, and using the method of looking up energy, they could vaguely see grievances entangled with them, constantly wailing and demanding their lives around them.
However, before these ghosts got close, they were scattered by the murderous aura of these demon soldiers, and their figures became weaker and more transparent.
This is the unique killing intent of the army. With the murderous aura condensed by killing countless creatures, even ghosts and unjust souls can't get close, and magic and poison can't harm people. For those ascetics and ghosts, it is extremely powerful. Great suppression.
This is also one of the imperial court's confidence in maintaining deterrence against those sects.
"Since that's the case, let's send them to follow the Demon King of Huangshan completely!"
Zhong Yu took a few glances at the demon soldiers, and soon lost interest, after all, they were just some crazy soldiers, nothing special at all. Zhong Yu has seen a lot in his previous experience, and he can't keep attracting his attention at all.
The reason why I was able to see a few more times this time is that I was a little surprised at the madness of the monster race when I first arrived in this world.
Instead of caring about these monster soldiers, Zhong Yu is now more curious and interested in the countless hidden and dark eyes around the battlefield.
"After this call for action, has it finally attracted the attention of some local forces?"
Zhong Yu thought to himself.
The army around him quickly received the order and slowly started to operate.
The first to take action is the 10,000 fourth-tier mystic masters and 10,000 third-tier mystic masters in this expedition, a total of about 20,000 sorcerers.
In their respective camps, countless brilliance and splendor appeared, constantly exuding strange rays of light, in which powerful forces surged, all of which were incomparably powerful spells.
This time, all the small spells were used, because there were not many enemies to deal with, and the strength was not very strong, so medium or large spells were not used, small ones were enough, and the killing effect was also the most impressive.
Every three to five people or ten people form a combined technique, spend more than ten seconds to accumulate strength, and then cast together.
In just one minute, thousands of powerful spells blasted out, completely covering all the demon soldiers at once, covering their figures in the brilliance of the spells.
When all the brilliance dissipated and gradually revealed the dilapidated and smoky battlefield, there were only three or four thousand demon soldiers left in the field.
And before these demon soldiers were lucky and continued to attack, the magic army in the rear formed a second wave of attacks while the magic attack continued.
Swipe.
Thousands of spells were blasted down again, and the remaining monster soldiers on the field were hit again. The smoke in the single field cleared again, and there was no longer a monster soldier standing.
hiss
With Zhong Yu's keen consciousness, in the darkness not far from the battlefield, he seemed to hear countless gasps.
He can understand their mood.
More than ten thousand demon soldiers, with such a powerful force, couldn't even touch the enemy, and were directly killed by the enemy's magic army.
Such a powerful long-range strike capability is not weaker than the regular field army of the general empire.
This also represents a terrible fact that Zhong Yu, a force that suddenly emerged, has a profound foundation of an empire, at least in terms of the bottom-level combat power of the army.
Although it is not clear how the high-level combat power above the sixth rank of Zhong Yu's forces is, judging from the ability to keep the Huangshan Demon King, there should still be some combat power around the sixth rank, and it is not weak.
The bottom-level combat power is not weaker than the empire, and the sixth-tier high-level combat power is a little bit more, plus a huge army.
These secret spies can almost believe that Zhong Yu's power is more terrifying than the so-called Huangshan Demon King, and can even shake the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.
