Under the tent, right vanguard Xue Lingtian, Duanhou General Situ Qingyun and other high-ranking generals were all stained with blood on their armors, their faces were pale, their heads were lowered, and they did not even dare to take a breath.
At this moment, the curtain was suddenly opened, and two soldiers staggered in, supporting a figure covered in blood.
It is the left vanguard general, Gron!
At this moment, there is no trace of the majesty of a warrior on the battlefield.
The left arm was almost severed, and the wound was hastily wrapped with a thick bandage, but blood was still oozing out.
The armor on the chest was dented with a terrifying fist mark, which was obviously a severe injury to the internal organs.
His face was as pale as paper, his lips were chapped, and every breath he took was accompanied by severe wheezing.
"Marshal..."
Gronn's voice was as weak as a candle in the wind. He broke away from the support of his soldiers, knelt on one knee, and hung his head heavily:
"The last general... the last general is incompetent! The left vanguard battalion... is almost completely wiped out. Marshal... please punish me!"
"What?!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked!
Goebbels rushed forward, grabbed Gron's collar, and roared with red eyes:
"What did you say?! The entire army was wiped out?! Thirty thousand vanguard troops! 1,600 Soul Master troops! You told me they were all gone?!"
Gronn's body was shaking violently, blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and he smiled miserably, his eyes filled with bloodshot eyes and pain:
"Our Soul Master unit encountered Star Luo Empire's most elite assassination team 'Shadow', led by at least two hundred Soul King level experts... The brothers resisted desperately, but..." Goron's voice choked up:
"The ones who came back... counting the last generals, there are less than thirty people..."
"Pfft--"
A mouthful of blood spurted out from Goron's mouth. He could no longer hold on and his body fell softly.
"Medic! Medic!"
Goebbels roared, and the soldiers hurriedly carried the unconscious Gron down.
Inside the handsome tent, a deathly silence fell.
Thirty people...
One thousand and six Soul Master, with less than thirty people left.
This number, like a poisonous hammer, is hard on everyone's heart. Soul Master is the empire's most precious strategic resource, and each one has taken a huge amount of effort to cultivate.
Overnight, more than 90% of it was broken! This was no longer a broken muscle, this was a direct break of the spine!
Xue Lingtian's face turned pale, he took a step forward and added in a hoarse voice:
"Marshal, my right vanguard battalion... the situation is also not optimistic.
In order to respond to General Gron, we had a head-on collision with the Star Luo Empire's main force. The opponent's heavy armored cavalry and Soul Master legions were far superior in number and strength to ours... our unit... was also damaged by nearly half."
"Trash! They are all trash!"
Goebbels kicked over the weapon rack beside him, and countless weapons scattered on the ground, just like his broken mood at the moment.
"Xue Lingtian, you said you would use your tactics! Situ Qingyun, you said it was foolproof! What now?! Now you tell me, we lost? We lost so much that we didn't even have our pants left?!"
The two generals lowered their heads in shame and were speechless.
Who would have thought that what they thought was a seamless plan turned out to be a grave that the other party had already dug.
Like a bunch of smart-aleck fools jumping in with glee.
"What does our intelligence department do?! There was no one aware of such a huge sneak attack?!"
Goebbels had nowhere to vent his anger and could only pace back and forth in the tent, like a trapped Lion.
This disastrous defeat was not only a military defeat, but also a devastating blow to the Heaven Dou Empire's national prestige and military morale.
There is not even one elite force left, which means that they have lost all ability to take the initiative to attack.
Next, he can only be beaten passively.
Goebbels took a deep breath and suppressed the anger and frustration in his heart. He knew that now was not the time to hold people accountable.
Looking at the map, his eyes became extremely solemn.
"Give me my order!"
Goebbels's voice regained a bit of calmness, but it was filled with a biting chill:
"The entire army shrinks its defense line, abandons all peripheral strongholds, and retreats to the natural danger of the 'One Line of Sky'! Send the highest level request for help to the imperial capital! Tell Your Majesty that the main force of the Star Luo Empire has arrived, and the border is in danger!"
"Also..."
Goebbels' eyes swept across the crowd in the tent:
"Strictly seal the news of the defeat! Anyone who leaks it or shakes the morale of the military, regardless of official position, will be dealt with... military law!"
All the generals were shocked and agreed in unison:
"As you command!"
The order was issued, and the entire Heaven Dou military camp was in motion. However, the once high taxi spirit was gone at this moment, leaving only the panic after the failure and the fear of the future.
No one knows whether this war can still be won.
No one knows if they can make it home alive.
Completely opposite to the gloomy atmosphere in the Heaven Dou military camp, the Chinese military tent at the Star Luo Empire was filled with laughter and laughter, and the aroma of wine overflowed.
"Hahahaha! It's so happy! It's so happy!"
Star Luo Empire Marshal of the Army, Dai Tianfeng, a burly and domineering Soul Emperor strongman, was holding a gold cup inlaid with gems, smiling at the generals with a red face:
"Heaven Dou Those stupid pigs really think their strategy is so clever! Little do they know that all their movements are under my control!"
"Marshal is wise!"
A bearded general laughed and echoed:
"That old man Goebbels never dreamed that the chess pieces we placed at their top level had sent over their plan to lure the enemy deep into the country half a month ago intact!"
"That's right! We pretended to fall into the trap and used it, but instead prepared a big gift for them at Dragon Valley!"
Another general said proudly:
"In this battle, the Heaven Dou left vanguard battalion was completely wiped out, the right vanguard battalion was crippled, and the Soul Master army was destroyed in name only! Goebbels is probably hiding in his tent crying right now!"
"Hahahaha!"
Loud laughter erupted in the tent.
Dai Tianfeng looked at all this with satisfaction, drank the wine in one gulp, and then slammed the golden cup on the table.
The laughter stopped suddenly, and everyone's eyes focused on him.
Dai Tianfeng walked to the huge sand table, pointing the riding whip in the direction of the Heaven Dou Empire, his eyes full of domineering and greedy look down on the world.
"Soldiers!"
The voice is loud and provocative:
"Heaven Dou Empire's elite has been lost, and Goebbels has become a toothless tiger! Now he has shrunk to a thin line of sky, trying to hold on to the danger.
But, does this work?!"
"It's no use!"
The generals roared in unison, and the sound almost overturned the entire tent.
"Well said!"
Dai Tianfeng's eyes flashed:
"Send me the commander's military orders!"
"Order, the left army commander Dai Yu will lead 50,000 heavy armored cavalry, 30,000 infantry, and the 'Crazy Lion' Soul Master Legion to launch a general attack from the west side of 'Fenghou Slope' three days later!"
"Order, the commander of the right army, Zhu Ziqing, will lead 50,000 light cavalry, 50,000 crossbowmen, and the 'Netherworld' Soul Master legion, and launch a general attack from the 'Luo Ma Stream' on the east side in three days!"
