Immortal and Demon Cultivation
Chapter 5461: Breaking Defense
As if it had been agreed, the heaven wanted to blossom on both the east and west sides at the same time.
When the battle started in the city of Kucha in the western region, An Wenxiu, the commander of the central army of the heaven, finally launched a full-scale attack on the third line of defense of Niangzi Pass, Laojun Cave.
It was already the second watch at this moment, and the defense line of Laojun Cave was quiet, with only countless torches illuminating the layers of defense lines.
Under the cover of darkness, tens of thousands of skeleton armies quietly approached the front line of the defense line of Laojun Cave.
Behind them were the black giant army and madmen, and behind them was the destruction army.
The arrogant heaven army also began to play the sixth.
They no longer launched attacks as blatantly as before. At this moment, they were like a group of rats hiding in the dark, slowly approaching.
When nearly a thousand destruction beasts arrived at the designated location, the heaven army tore off the camouflage, and hundreds of fireballs made a humming air explosion and slammed into the Laojun Cave position fiercely.
In an instant, the Laojun Cave position turned into a sea of fire.
Such a large-scale bombardment did not cause too many casualties to the human defenders.
Veteran General Xu Kai had been on guard against An Wenxiu's night attack, leaving only a small number of soldiers on the position, and the main force was hidden behind the Cangbing Cave and Laojun Cave.
The skeleton warriors were not afraid of the flames, wielding rusty swords through the sea of fire, and easily occupied the first front position of Laojun Cave.
The human defenders responded immediately.
They were not in a hurry to recapture the lost positions, but took the initiative to give up the first, second, and third positions of Laojun Cave.
Seeing that the soldiers had captured the three positions so easily, An Wenxiu felt a little proud.
Since taking the Queguan position, An Wenxiu has been resting.
In his opinion, the Laojun Cave position can be taken at any time.
The mountain is not high, just a hundred-foot earth slope, without deep defense, and the Cangbing Cave can't hide many people.
Laojun Cave is more like an ordinary human city.
As long as a wave of volleys from the Skyfire Beast, it can be destroyed.
The result was just as An Wenxiu expected.
The entire north side of the mountaintop was turned into a sea of fire. The human soldiers had no way to show up at all, and the skeleton warriors easily conquered three frontier positions.
However, when the skeleton army wanted to attack forward, the human defenders began to counterattack.
The flames had been mostly extinguished. Since a large number of heavenly soldiers gathered in the defense line, the sky fire beasts could not launch an attack to avoid hurting friendly forces.
The human defenders were waiting for this moment.
Let them in, and mix the enemy and us together. Make the sky fire beasts useless.
As the drums sounded, the human soldiers in the hiding cave rushed out.
They were only wearing shorts, not even clothes and armor.
Holding weapons, they let out a howl like a wolf, and collided fiercely with the enemy.
The two sides instantly fell into a fight.
After a hole was torn, countless human soldiers with black fire thunder bombs tied to their bodies rushed down the mountain with shouts.
Their target was not the Skeleton Corps, but the Giant Corps that followed closely behind.
Bang!
Boom...
The sound of gunpowder exploding came one after another, and thick smoke filled the entire Niangzi Pass.
Each explosion marked the death of a human warrior.
Of course, they also killed many giant warriors.
Before the appearance of black fire weapons, human warriors had to pay the price of at least more than 20 people to kill a giant warrior.
It is different now. As long as a warrior is tied with a black fire thunder bomb and hugs the giant warrior's thigh, he can blow the giant warrior into a disabled person.
Because the giant warrior is tall, it is difficult for him to stand up again after breaking his leg, and only death is waiting.
This has greatly reduced the casualties of human soldiers.
An Wenxiu, who was commanding the battle at Queguan, saw the flames in Laojun Cave, snorted, and said, "A trapped beast is fighting. Pass my order, the Skyfire Beast will attack immediately."
A deputy general beside him said, "Commander-in-chief, we still have a lot of people entangled with the enemy. Once the Skyfire Beast attacks, our people..."
An Wenxiu waved his hand and said, "We only have more than 2,000 people who attacked Laojun Cave. The mountains and plains are full of enemies. Their losses are greater than ours.
Immediately let the Skyfire Beast attack, and we must take Laojun Cave before dawn."
A moment later, hundreds of fireballs streaked across the night sky and hit Laojun Cave hard.
The soldiers on both sides were instantly trapped in the sea of fire.
The skeleton warriors were not afraid of fire, so they took advantage of it at this moment.
On the defense line of the righteous Laojun Cave, tens of thousands of human soldiers turned into living people, and their wailing and screaming were chilling.
Xu Kai, who was watching the battle from a distance, closed his eyes in pain.
He said, "Retreat."
Less than half an hour after the battle at Laojun Cave began, the human world lost more than 50,000 soldiers.
Xu Kai no longer put up a fearless resistance and ordered the army stationed in the north of Laojun Cave to start retreating to the fourth Chengtian Cliff defense line of Niangzi Pass.
There is a gorge that is more than ten miles long, and it will be a decisive battle between the two sides.
An Wenxiu got the news that the main force stationed in Laojun Cave had retreated, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
He said: "It seems that Xu Kai wants to fight a decisive battle with me at Chengtian Cliff. Order the soldiers to pursue them across the board. I want to eat up 200,000 of them before they enter the Chengtian Cliff defense line."
At the same time.
Three hundred miles northwest of Niangzi Pass.
A heavenly grain transport team was stationed on the spot. Thousands of carts of grain and grass materials gathered into a huge camp.
The 20,000 Storm Legion was responsible for the escort mission.
It was already the second half of the night, and the entire camp was asleep.
At this time, a group of cavalry troops appeared from the northern horizon.
They moved forward in the dark without lighting a torch.
Like a ghost in the dark.
The commander was called Baturu, the first warrior of the White Wolf Tribe among the nine wolf tribes on the grassland.
He followed the order of the Great Khan Zhebie and led 500,000 grassland wolf riders to attack the grain transport team of the central army of the heavenly realm.
Baturu used 300,000 cavalry for the attack, and the remaining 200,000 were used to resist the reinforcements of the Heavenly Realm Storm Legion coming from Niangzi Pass.
Because the grain transport team of the heavenly realm was rarely harassed, the vigilance of the heavenly realm soldiers was not high.
When the wolf cavalry was only five miles away from the camp and began to speed up the charge, the heavenly realm soldiers had not yet reacted.
The earth began to tremble, and the amplitude became larger and larger.
When countless six-legged beasts began to roar uneasily, the heavenly realm soldiers realized that this was not an earthquake, but an enemy attack!
The call broke through the camp.
The six-legged cavalrymen in charge of the escort rushed out of the tent in a hurry, looking for weapons and beast riders.
It was too late.
Cavalry pays the most attention to formation.
Although many people have ridden six-legged beasts at this moment, there is no formation at all.
At this time, the 300,000 bloodthirsty wolf riders led by Baturu are approaching quickly.
Five miles, three miles...
The remaining time is no longer enough for the commander of the heaven to gather the beast riders. When the 20,000 storm legions were still in a mess, the rain of arrows from the grassland cavalry had already fallen.
