Chapter 749: Ambush from all sides, double arrows shoot the demon"What did you say?!"
"Eighty percent of our main forces, the demon soldiers in the three camps, are all dead?"
When Emperor Gui, with the last 20% of his demon soldiers, the Three Lords, the remaining seven pioneers, the Demon Sea and others, arrived here and assembled with the main force, he was stunned by the battle situation reported by his subordinates.
The demon general stammered, "Actually... not all of them are dead. There's still 10% left..."
boom--! !
Before he could finish his sentence, the demon general who was reporting the battle situation was smashed to pieces by a palm strike, leaving no intact body.
Dang Shenmie's face was filled with rage, and his shouts were louder than thunder: "You were set up to kill each other, and only 10% of your troops are left with 80% of your forces, and you still have the nerve to live?!"
"enough!"
Emperor Ghost stopped Dangshenmie from venting his anger: "Dangshenmie, calm down for a while."
The three of them knelt down and bowed their heads, sincerely apologizing: "It was my poor decision-making that led to such heavy casualties in our main force. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
In any case, the demon generals leading the team are direct subordinates of the Three Lords.
Now, because of their incompetence, the Shura Kingdom's army suffered such tragic losses. As the superiors of those demon generals, the Three Lords cannot escape the blame.
"Can I get back 80% of the demon soldiers by punishing them?"
"This defeat can only be blamed on the enemy's cunning and my poor deployment of the battle formation and choice of surrender."
"Everyone, get up!"
"Keep them alive and use their merits to atone for their sins. Don't let those 80% of the demon soldiers die in vain!"
Although his heart was bleeding at the moment and his face was terribly gloomy, as the 'Emperor', he had to calm himself down.
But how could we bear such a heavy loss?
In this battle, more than 80% of the demon soldiers were killed and wounded.
The demon generals under the command of the three were also killed by the heroes, and only one in ten remained.
If the Emperor Ghost had not arrived in time and released the sea of demons, perhaps even the three would have been killed.
"...Thank you, Emperor!!"
The three statues stood up with gratitude and silently swore in their hearts that they would devote their lives to the Shura Kingdom.
It has to be said that Emperor Gui's ability to lead his subordinates is one of the best in the entire history of the Shura Kingdom, so much so that Ce Jun, his former right-hand man, the Three Lords, the Seven Vanguards and other talented people are all convinced of him.
The air was silent for a long time.
Emperor Ghost finally calmed down: "The Demon Sea can temporarily fill the shortage of troops. Although they have obvious weaknesses, they are barely enough. As long as we can win the subsequent battles and seize more land, the Shura Kingdom will be able to obtain a steady supply of troops."
"May I ask the Emperor, what should we do now?"
Emperor Ghost pondered for a few breaths, then sighed and said, "Retreat to the Ghost Sacrifice Greedy Demon Palace first!"
"Also, shrink the defense line!"
"Our current military strength is not enough to maintain 400 miles of land."
"I obey my orders!"
Soon, under the command of Emperor Ghost, the three gathered the remaining troops, guarded the periphery with the sea of demons, and covered the remaining demon soldiers as they slowly retreated towards the spirit world.
When they were halfway through the journey, they heard shouts of killing and drum beats from the front, and tens of thousands of demon soldiers were suddenly in an uproar.
"Oh no, it's an ambush!"
Man Xieyin's face changed drastically, and she was about to rush forward with the two rings in her hands, sacrificing herself to cover the retreat of the others.
But as soon as she moved, she was pulled back by Emperor Ghost.
"Dharma-sama, calm your mind!"
"The sea of demons is endless and can never be killed. It is impossible for them to break through the defense line immediately!"
"The deliberate beating of drums and shouting is mostly a bluff to tire out the enemy, in order to disrupt the morale of our army. Don't be fooled and lose your composure!"
As he spoke, Emperor Gui looked helpless.
It would be fine if ordinary demon soldiers were frightened, but you, Man Xieyin, are already a demon of the third rank, so why are you still so impatient... "...Yes, Emperor."
Man Xieyin then realized that she had been too impulsive and retreated back to her original position in embarrassment.
The situation was exactly as Emperor Gui had expected. The anti-demon army did not intend to launch a general attack and annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop. After all, with the sea of demons ahead, that was not practical.
What they wanted was to disrupt the demon army's minds and undermine their morale.
And the strategic purpose of this operation was indeed achieved.
Although Emperor Gui was smart enough to see through the plan immediately and passed on the enemy's purpose, he was ultimately unable to control the hearts of every demon soldier.
As they advanced along the way, the anti-demon army would beat drums and shout "kill" every once in a while, pretending to charge.
Every time they harassed, the demon army lost a bit of courage and their morale dropped a bit.
Emperor Ghost saw the situation completely, but he had no choice but to speed up his advance.
After harassing the enemy ten times, the demon army's fighting spirit had dropped to the lowest point. At this time, the anti-demon army finally let go and officially launched a general attack on the demon army.
“Kill – lah!!”
The rebel army was eager to fight and attacked the demon army from all directions.
The demon army was terrified upon seeing this. If it weren't for the Emperor Ghost and the Three Lords behind them, and the sea of demons in front of them, they would have almost thrown down their weapons and surrendered on the spot.
"All the monsters, kill them all, leave no one alive!!"
Yao Ding is the real body of the Demon Sea.
Among the three, Emperor Gui only delegated the command of the demon to the Lord of the Tathagata, Manxieyin.
Of course, this is not because he is most optimistic about Man Xieyin.
In fact, the reason is just the opposite, it is precisely because Man Xieyin's foundation is the weakest among the three, she is not as good as Chi Yantian in terms of intelligence, and not as good as Dang Shenmie in terms of martial arts, so Emperor Gui let her control the Demon Sea.
In this way, Chi Yantian and Dang Shenmie will be free to deal with more important enemies.
Under Man Xieyin's command, the sea of demons seemed to have wisdom and order. They rushed towards the rebel army in groups according to fixed rules.
Seeing the sea of demons taking action, a pair of figures like a fairy couple on a distant peak realized that the time had come and took action at the same time.
There was a sudden sound, and the poems and the tidal flaws were unsheathed at the same time.
"The ten directions are desolate and boundless."
"The sunset has its owner through the ages."
"The Immortal Poet is everywhere, and his sword goes away and never returns!!"
Young Master Yaoxing leaves Xiaolou and the talented lady Minyue Li Jianshi!
The husband and wife joined forces with swords and used powerful moves together. Suddenly, the sword auras and sword lights in the air crisscrossed, covering the sky and occupying half of the sky.
Then with a bang, thousands of sword lights and shadows turned into a rainstorm and poured down, like a swarm of locusts, bombarding the sea of demons.
The sword energy is extremely sharp. If it touches you, you will be injured, and if it touches you, you will die.
The vast sea of demons was blasted clean out by the flashes of swords and sabers in the blink of an eye.
Some of the entities hiding in the sea of demons were frightened and turned around and fled in a hurry, while driving their own demon shelters to protect themselves.
At this moment, two more explosions were heard.
"Star Chasing Arrow: Dragon Soars to the Sky!"
"Time flies by like an arrow!"
He Wentian and Zhu Wuniang took action.
Two flying arrows, one like a shooting star, the other like time, so fast that you can't be prepared for, so fast that you can't even blink an eye.
Just as the demons were stunned, an arrow flew through the air and hit the demon's body.
One arrow hits the head, one arrow pierces the heart!(End of this chapter)
