War of Expansion (1)
Half a month later, the cold wind howled, the snow was white and the world was covered in a silvery white, and the war broke out.
Since neither side wanted to leave the Spirit Vein and lose the city as a solid backing, they both chose to send their lower-level combat forces to make initial probing attacks after the war began.
On Blackblood City's side, the largest force consisted of a beast tide of sixty to seventy thousand low-level Demon Beasts.
It must be said that in terms of the number of cannon fodder, there are almost no races that can compare with the Demon Race.
Following the beast tide came thirty to forty thousand Blood Servants of various appearances, and then an equal number of the Barbarian Tribe and low-ranking Spirit Tribe beings.
In addition, the Crimson Redblood Army, as the final force in the first wave of attacks, was also dispatched by Blackblood City to attack Evil-Suppressing Pass.
More than 100,000 Foreign Races Army marched in, followed by two castle-like War Fortress.
This is War Law Treasure of the Blood Race, similar to the Flying Boats of the Human Race. It is equipped with special restrictions of the Blood Race and various War Law Artifacts, making it extremely powerful.
In addition to the War Fortress, eight Blood Race at the Golden Core Combat Strength were also dispatched: four Purebred- Blood Race and four Golden Core Blood Servants.
In addition, six Golden Core Combat Strength dispatched by the three major Foreign Races forces, including Ten Thousand Blades Mountain, also followed behind the army.
The four Golden Core Demon Beasts were responsible for controlling the beast tide, while the two Barbarian Tribe Golden Core cultivators Commander the Barbarian Tribe army.
Boom...! Boom...!
As the Foreign Races Army approached, the earth trembled, and the snow flew up, the heavy snowflakes swirling back into the sky and lingering for a long time.
The sight of over 100,000 lives gathered together was absolutely awe-inspiring.
Yang Tianyou stood on the bridge of the Suppress Evil Boat, his Great White Gold Eyes glowing slightly as he gazed into the distance.
After a moment, he lowered his head, looked at Zhiming who was curled up in his arms, and asked, "Have you found the location of Si Fan or the Lord of Blackblood City?"
"Found them! Twenty-two miles to the northeast, on a small hill, Si Fan and the Lord of Blackblood City are hiding there using a special Law Treasure." Zhiming's large ears twitched slightly, taking in all the movements within a thousand miles.
"Heh, are they looking for an opportunity to ambush us? Should we deliberately expose an opening to them...?" Yang Tianyou pondered for a moment, then shook his head and muttered to himself, "No, before the Spirit Beasts are all gathered and before Madam arrives, I alone, even with the help of the Suppress Evil Boat and Puppets, won't be able to stop these two. I'd better wait a little longer..."
On the other side of the hill, Si Fan and the Lord of Blackblood City did not notice Zhiming's spying.
The two thought they had hidden it well, and were talking about something with smiles on their faces.
The Lord of Blackblood City said excitedly, "Uncle, this army of over 100,000 is enough to give the Yang Household a hard time. Even if they can annihilate this army, they will definitely consume most of their Spirit Vein Spiritual Qi and Spirit Stone reserves."
By then, the Fleet's sustained combat capability will plummet, and we only need to wait in comfort, hold Blackblood City, and sooner or later find an opportunity to severely damage them.
Upon hearing this, Si Fan nodded slightly and said, "If these more than 100,000 low-level combatants were to launch Law Technique attack simultaneously, even I would have to retreat."
If the Yang Household dares to overestimate their abilities and send out their Fourth Tier Flying Boats to confront the army head-on, they will definitely be bogged down. That will be our time to make our move.
"However, judging from the current situation, the Yang Household doesn't seem to have any intention of taking the initiative. Could it be that they know Uncle is coming to Blackblood City to provide support and are on guard?" The Lord of Blackblood City said softly, a thoughtful look on his face.
"Impossible. The fact that I requested Iron Lion King's assistance was only known to the highest levels of the various forces in Iron Lion Ridge. It wouldn't be leaked so easily," Si Fan said with certainty.
The Lord of Blackblood City nodded slightly, then said in a deep voice, "That is because the Yang Household's own Spirit Stone reserves are insufficient. Such a huge Fleet, although it looks magnificent, requires a lot of resources to burn as power support every moment."
"The Yang Household Golden Core Household; they couldn't possibly have such abundant resources, could they? Are they really willing to drain their Lineage dry just to win this war?"
Si Fan shook his head and said, "Forget it, no matter what they think, since the war has already begun, we just need to proceed according to the established steps. Remember, the best strategy is to remain hidden and wait for an opportunity to launch a surprise attack."
As the two were talking, they were completely unaware that an invisible force was enveloping the area.
Zhiming listened to their conversation carefully, word for word, and then reported it to Yang Tianyou in detail.
The latter did not react after hearing this.
Blackblood City's scheme wasn't a conspiracy; it was an open and blatant plot.
With over 100,000 Foreign Races Army, the Yang Household couldn't possibly ignore them.
Once it breaks through the Evil-Suppressing Pass and enters Purple Moon County, it will instantly cause widespread devastation and irreparable losses.
Furthermore, the destructive power of this army should not be underestimated.
If attacked with concentrated fire, even a Nascent Soul Cultivator could be severely injured on the spot if things go wrong.
"Let's fight first, consider it training. The Purple Moon Army hasn't experienced a large-scale battle since its inception..."
As the thought flashed through his mind, Yang Tianyou's gaze shifted to the Purple Moon Army.
At this moment, war had fully broken out.
More than 100,000 Foreign Races Army, like a rising tide, crashed against the walls of Evil-Suppressing Pass amidst deafening roars. The Golden Core Combat Strength behind the army also joined the fray.
On the Human Race side, all the Flying Boat except for the Suppress Evil Boat also launched an attack simultaneously.
Divine Ability, Law Technique, Formations, War Law Artifacts... all came together to form a magnificent torrent of attack, creating a tremendous surge as it rushed towards the Foreign Races Army.
In an instant, the two colorful, towering torrents collided with a deafening roar.
Boom!!
Blood splattered, scales flew everywhere, and pitiful howls rose and fell.
There were people of Foreign Races, and Human Race.
The former were killed outright, while the latter were killed or injured in the aftershocks of the attack collision.
At the same time, the towering walls of Evil-Suppressing Pass also began to shake violently under the impact of this torrent of attacks.
The bloody war, which was exhilarating, reached a fever pitch from the very beginning.
On the western battlefield of Evil-Suppressing Pass, under the Commander of Yang Yusheng, one hundred Purple Moon Army and two hundred Yang Household Cultivators are jointly piloting a Third-Tier Upper-Grade War Flying Vessels, fighting fiercely against the Foreign Races Army.
Black and White and Yang Xuanyun, acting as insurance, were positioned at the core of the Flying Boat Formation, ready to provide support at any time.
The Purple Moon Army formed the White Tiger Roaring Sky Formation, transforming into hundred-zhang-tall Winged White Tigers. Breaking free from the protection of the Third-Tier Flying Boats and the city's Formation, they charged directly into the Foreign Races Army.
With a swift claw strike, dozens of Foreign Races creatures were torn to pieces.
With a flap of its wings, thousands of sharp blades condensed from the Geng Metal Qi formed a mighty river of blades, turning the swarms of Foreign Races gathered before it into a rain of blood.
Its tail swept out like a whip, pulverizing the Foreign Races creatures one by one.
After the three consecutive attacks, the nearby Foreign Races will react and unleash thousands of attacks simultaneously.
At this time, the Purple Moon Army will set up the Xuanwu Suppressing Sea Formation, using the unparalleled defensive power of the Xuanwu Divine Beast to resist the concentrated fire of the Foreign Races creatures.
Of course, after this round of concentrated fire, the Purple Moon Army dared not remain on the battlefield any longer.
Once the Purple Moon Army is bogged down by the Foreign Races Army and subjected to frequent concentrated fire, even if they manage to hold out, they will suffer heavy losses.
Whenever the Purple Moon Army wanted to retreat, Black and White would seize the opportunity to lead the remaining two hundred cultivators with Yang Xuanyun in Third-Tier Flying Boat to come and meet them.
After the Purple Moon Army returns to their Flying Boats to rest for a while, they will continue to fight.
This cycle repeated itself, and the Purple Moon Army's Sha Qi grew stronger and stronger, their military power increased, and their coordination became even more seamless.
His overwhelming aura even instilled fear in the surrounding bloodthirsty Foreign Races.
The Purple Moon Army's outstanding performance quickly attracted the attention of the Foreign Races's high-level combat forces.
The Redblood Army of the Blood Race slowly advanced from the rear, their sharp weapons transforming into longswords, locking onto the Purple Moon Army from ten miles away.
Yang Yusheng showed no fear, raising his Long Spear and fluttering his scarlet cloak in the wind.
Behind him, a hundred Purple Moon Army simultaneously raised their magical Law Artifact, bravely choosing to fight amidst the earth-shattering roars of the War Beasts.
