Gouyao Tianhuang took out a Communication Jade Talisman and issued orders to the garrison Assistant Envoys on the other two islands under his defense.
"Nakajima Taidi, bring your men to reinforce Chichang City immediately. You have two hours to arrive. Disobey, and you will be executed!"
"Watanabe Jingba, bring your men to reinforce Chichang City immediately. You have four hours to arrive. Arrive late or fail to arrive, and you will be executed!"
Gouyao Tianhuang issued two orders in succession, summoning all 150,000 garrison troops from the other two islands. Once both reinforcement forces arrived, the ** Divine Cult's troops inside Chichang City would number 450,000. He intended to defend Chichang City to the death, gathering every soldier under his command for a decisive battle to the death against the Immortal Realm's Allied Army there.
To the east of Outland Sea Island, his younger brother Goushi Tianhuang led 400,000 Cult Disciples in defending the islands. The garrisons on the Outer Sea Islands also numbered 200,000. Unfortunately, those 200,000 Cult Disciples were beyond his authority to mobilize. Otherwise, he would certainly have summoned them all to hold Chichang City before launching a surprise counterattack against the Allied Army's base.
The total forces both sides had now massed at Chichang City reached an astonishing 900,000.
With Gouyao Tianhuang pouring in reinforcements regardless of the cost, Lei Zhenxiao's men had been unable to breach the walls. After half a day of fierce fighting, corpses from both sides carpeted the ground from the foot of the walls to two or three li outside the city.
