Chapter 1267: The Million-Man Battle
Facing the hundreds of thousands of troops on all sides, Mo Tianheng was also plagued with a headache.
"Better ask the troops inside the city for aid! I wonder if they'll care about me!"
Mo Tianheng immediately swept his Divine Sense toward the city.
His Divine Sense was also far stronger than that of Martial Cultivators of the same level.
When his Divine Sense entered the city in full display, Ye Liuyun immediately sensed something amiss.
"Huh? Why is it you?" Ye Liuyun, upon realizing it was Mo Tianheng, couldn't help being very surprised.
"What a coincidence! Come quickly to rescue me, I'm surrounded by a Foreign Tribe army of hundreds of thousands!" Mo Tianheng, without time to explain, immediately begged Ye Liuyun for aid.
Ye Liuyun swept his Divine Sense and was startled as well!
"So many people surround just you? What did you do?"
Ye Liuyun, while calling Qin Peng to dispatch troops, also questioned Mo Tianheng.
Mo Tianheng's treatment was even higher than his. The Foreign Tribe had never surrounded him like this.
"I don't know either, I only killed some Foreign Tribe soldiers in neat armor! They've been chasing me ever since. It started with just those soldiers pursuing me, but here it turned into an entire army surrounding me!"
Mo Tianheng truly couldn't fathom the reason.
Once Ye Liuyun's forces gathered, he immediately led troops out of the city.
At the same time, he also notified the cities on both flanks and sent reinforcements.
"How much longer can you hold on?" Ye Liuyun worried Mo Tianheng wouldn't last until he opened a breach.
"I have a Formation and can hold for two or three days!" Mo Tianheng also knew Ye Liuyun's forces were clearly at a disadvantage.
Thus, when he saw Ye Liuyun confronting the Foreign Tribe's hundreds of thousands without any hesitation, he felt deeply grateful.
"Then protect yourself first, I'll lead troops to cut through. As for the rest, we'll discuss when we return." Ye Liuyun instructed, then ordered Qin Peng to command the assault.
"Alright. But be careful, a squad of Foreign Tribe soldiers is still chasing me from behind. Compared to these Corpse Demons, they seem considerably stronger!"
Mo Tianheng, of course, could discern the soldiers' strengths and kindly warned Ye Liuyun.
Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun silently communicated with Qin Peng, urging him to ready his elite troops. Otherwise, if those Foreign Tribe elite soldiers struck, they could suffer heavy losses.
They must engage the elite troops directly to have any hope of total victory.
"All units, advance; nearby garrisons, rush to reinforce and eliminate both of them there!" After receiving the news, Tuomu Hai also made a ruthless decision.
On one hand, he ordered the nearby Foreign Tribe armies to converge and encircle Ye Liuyun and Mo Tianheng. On the other, he urged the elite squad chasing Mo Tianheng from behind to capture both Ye Liuyun and Mo Tianheng together.
Since they were already exposed, he simply decided to kill them both.
The nearby Foreign Tribe army shifted, moving toward Ye Liuyun's direction, and the other Imperial armies immediately realized Ye Liuyun was causing trouble.
They knew Ye Liuyun was powerful and never lost in battle, so they, hoping for easy gains, proactively sent troops to assist, perhaps to share some spoils.
Thus, around the city where Ye Liuyun stood, both Imperial and Foreign Tribe armies gathered.
A battle involving over a million people was about to erupt.
But at this moment, Ye Liuyun, Qin Peng and their companions never imagined that rescuing one person would provoke such a massive incident.
Qin Peng only found that the Foreign Tribe army's resistance was extremely tenacious.
Some Corpse Demons even resumed wave after wave of suicidal assaults, charging at them recklessly.
These Corpse Demons were blasted into ash by the Warship's bombardment, yet they kept surging forward layer by layer, never retreating.
Thus their advance was very slow.
Mo Tianheng had already set up his Formation and waited leisurely.
Watching Ye Liuyun's Warship bombard, he couldn't help admiring: these Warships truly are battlefield weapons!
A single Warship strike can wipe out a Corpse Demon horde. Where the light formed from Spirit Stone hits, only the Foreign Tribe's armor and weapons leave remnants; Physical Bodies are instantly incinerated to ash by the energy.
Qin Peng commanded the fleet; before they could advance far, they discovered more Foreign Tribe armies rushing over.
Ye Liuyun and Qin Peng both wore solemn expressions.
"How did we attract so many Foreign Tribe armies?" Qin Peng asked Ye Liuyun puzzledly: "If we keep fighting like this, the nature of this battle will change! It will become a massive war!"
"Let them be; just go all out. I must rescue the people inside!" Ye Liuyun told Qin Peng.
"Alright! Just wait for the spectacle! Let's make it a big one!"
Qin Peng also got excited, immediately adjusting the Formation and strategy.
Their forward push slowed even more.
Mo Tianheng also knew they were currently on the defensive, so he didn't rush to press.
Anyway, his Formation could hold for two days without issue. If Ye Liuyun still couldn't reach him then, he could think of another plan.
However, what Ye Liuyun and the others didn't anticipate was that the arriving forces kept increasing.
Both the Foreign Tribe troops and the Great Summer Imperial army kept growing in number.
When they arrived, they all joined the fight.
The battlefield stretched for thousands of li; everywhere battles raged, cries of killing filled the air.
The two sides' armies intercepted and obstructed each other, already throwing the situation into chaos.
Both sides lacked unified command, all fell into melee.
Ye Liuyun immediately had Qin Peng use a Transmission Talisman to contact a familiar Leader, coordinating unified offense and defense, bringing more people into the coordinated deployment.
Soon, the Imperial army seized the advantage.
But shortly after, the Foreign Tribe side also achieved unified command, making the two sides evenly matched again.
Mo Tianheng, surrounded by the Foreign Tribe army in the middle, could only gape in amazement.
"What secret about the Evil Dragon Foreign Tribe have I uncovered?"
At the same time, he kept recalling his earlier experiences, trying to pinpoint why he had provoked the Foreign Tribe.
Ye Liuyun now personally joined the battle, wielding the Demon Slaying Sword, leading a squad of Demon Cultivators forward.
Once a foreign tribe, corpse demon, or demon cultivator whose realm exceeds his comes to kill him, he directly launches a Spiritual Soul Attack to kill them.
Now the battlefield is too chaotic; he also dares not delay. The more he kills, the less threat there is to his side's soldiers.
During battle, it is also Ye Liuyun's best opportunity to practice his sword and Qiankun Palm. Therefore, Ye Liuyun is also very enthusiastic about battle.
It's just a pity that the Magic Vine is asleep; otherwise, this battle would be enough to fill its belly.
Feng Wanru, Ye Tiandao, and others naturally stay with Ye Liuyun. Xiao Lanbing mainly takes charge of protecting everyone's safety and usually does not act.
