And so, the Chen Kingdom army retreated.
Chen Kingdom's city Rune Artifacts extremely advanced, so even after all the garrison had withdrawn, the city walls maintained a fierce barrage of firepower. The soldiers of the Haotian Empire dared not advance rashly, otherwise they would suffer enormous losses.
In addition, there is Robot Corps of nearly 100,000 inside Flying Dragon Pass. These robots have also been abandoned by the Chen Kingdom. With them left behind to carry out guerrilla warfare, the Chen Kingdom soldiers can retreat at their leisure.
The Haotian Empire's army watched helplessly as Chen Kingdom soldiers fled in rows into transport vehicles, leaving them utterly powerless and infuriated.
"Hmph, you're not getting away!"
Seeing that the Five Elements Army also wanted to escape, the Tiger Vanguard Army immediately intensified their offensive and held them back.
After the Tiger Vanguard Army unleashed its true power, its strength at least doubled compared to before. Even the Five Elements Army in their Mechanical Combination state could not withstand the Tiger Vanguard Army's attacks, and their massive alloy bodies were riddled with cracks.
"Haha! It is a great honor to fight against Tiger Warriors today."
Don't worry, everyone, we'll meet again soon.
Although Chen Rufeng was at a disadvantage, his composure remained undiminished.
As soon as he finished speaking, the mechanical body composed of the Five Elements Army suddenly lit up with a blue light, then turned into blue particles and shattered away.
"Damn it, chase after them!"
The commander of the Tiger Vanguard Army Legion roared angrily, urging his men to charge forward.
boom...!
The alloy city wall, which was seventy or eighty feet high, could not withstand a single impact from the Fiery Tiger. After breaking through the city wall, the Fiery Tiger did not stop and continued to chase after the soldiers who were fleeing behind Flying Dragon Pass.
"Hmph! I refuse to believe you'd abandon these people and run away alone!"
Unable to find any trace of the Five Elements Army Five Elements Army, the Tiger Vanguard Army commander decided to use this method to force them to reveal themselves.
Although the retreating soldiers were traveling in large transport Rune Artifacts, the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry, once in battle formation, were incredibly fast. If they were allowed to pursue them like this, the Chen Kingdom soldiers would inevitably suffer heavy losses.
However, at that moment, several missiles exuding a dangerous aura flew in from the sky and struck the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry.
Boom!
Several mushroom clouds exploded around the Fiery Tiger. Although the explosion range of these mushroom clouds was not very large, their power was more concentrated. Even the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry, who were protected by Divine Radiance, felt the pressure.
"Stop! This is Chen Kingdom's Demon Spirit Missile, everyone be careful!"
Before the battle, the commander of the Tiger Vanguard Army Legion had carefully read Chen Kingdom's intelligence and had a certain understanding of missiles, robots, and even Spirit Magnetization Technology.
However, he did not expect that Chen Kingdom's Spirit Magnetization Technology could actually enable such a large army as the Five Elements Army to teleport together.
With the rune missiles as a deterrent, the Tiger Vanguard Army dared not make any rash moves, and in the end, the Chen Kingdom army successfully withdrew, leaving only an empty city for the Haotian Empire.
"Old hag! You can't do anything to me, so don't waste your energy!"
The battle at Flying Dragon Pass has been decided, and Chen Mu, not wanting to entangle with Divine Lord Xuanji any longer, spoke up.
"Snort!"
Divine Lord Xuanji had given it his all, but after fighting for so long without any result, he had long since decided to give up.
However, the battle of Flying Dragon Pass was not over yet, and if she left prematurely, it would easily attract gossip, which is why she has been entangled with the matter until now.
Seeing that she had won, she decisively used her divine sense to contact Divine Lord Cangmu and leave together.
"Let's go! We'll deal with them after I figure out how to counter Chen Kingdom's formation."
Originally, Divine Lord Tianlang should have come along to deal with Chen Mu, but he was seriously injured in the Tomb of the Gods Divine Lord Tianlang had to return to the Heavenly Realm immediately to heal. That's why only Divine Lord Cangmu and Divine Lord Xuanji came.
Divine Lord Cangmu's abilities are not actually suited for direct combat, but rather for support and healing. That's why he was suppressed by the combined forces of the Demon-Slaying Sword and Mingye. If it were the Divine Lord Tianlang who took action, the Demon-Slaying Sword and Mingye would be in a much more difficult situation.
"Yes, Lady Xuanji."
Although Divine Lord Cangmu hated these insects that dared to provoke him, he dared not disobey Divine Lord Xuanji's wishes and could only leave indignantly in the end.
Although rumors of the Haotian Empire's attack on the Chen Kingdom had been circulating for some time, most people did not expect it to unfold so hastily.
The Battle of Flying Dragon Pass was the first battle between the two sides, but it was by no means the only one. Not long after the Battle of Flying Dragon Pass, at least dozens of border cities in Jing Province and Yi Province of the Chen Kingdom were attacked by the army of the Haotian Empire.
The Haotian Empire truly lived up to its reputation as the number one power on the Pan Emperor Continent. Even though the Chen Kingdom was well-prepared, it was still at a disadvantage in this battle, suffering repeated defeats and losing more than a dozen border cities.
However, the Haotian Empire did not gain much advantage either. It seemed that the Chen Kingdom had long anticipated that it would be unable to defeat the Haotian Empire, so it retreated very decisively.
The cities that were captured contained very few valuable supplies, and the Chen Kingdom army that was repelled did not suffer many casualties; their military strength remained intact.
"Pass down the order: conduct a thorough search of all conquered territories to ensure that no Chen Kingdom communication facilities are missed."
Judging solely from the strength of both sides on paper, the Chen Kingdom undoubtedly had no chance of winning.
The only thing Long Bo is worried about now is the Rune Research Institute led by Chen Mu. He still can't think of a good way to deal with the ability to teleport an entire legion away using Spirit Magnetic Wave.
"Your Majesty, haven't we already sent many communication Rune Artifacts from the Chen Kingdom to the Heavenly Realm? Why haven't they given us a reply yet?"
In the battle between the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry and the Five Elements Army, if it weren't for that strange teleportation technique, the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry would definitely have crippled the Five Elements Army. Wen Dao felt very unwilling to lose such a great achievement.
"Alas! How can we command the people of the Heavenly Realm?"
However, there is some good news. When the Divine Lord Xuanji returned to the Heavenly Realm not long ago, she mentioned to me that she would ask an acquaintance in the Talisman Department for help. With her influence, we should get a reply soon."
Long Bo spoke, responding to Wen Dao Dao's words.
"Hmph! A bunch of petty opportunists. When His Majesty reaches the Divine Realm, I..."
Wen Dao was about to finish speaking when he was stopped by Long Bo's gaze.
"What we need to do now is to gradually erode Chen Kingdom's territory. As long as we eliminate all of the Chen Kingdom's communication buildings within our territory, they won't be able to cause any trouble."
Uncle Wen Dao, I'm afraid you'll have to work hard these next few days.
"Your subordinate obeys!"
Wen Dao Long Bo, not wanting to say anything more, tactfully bowed and left the study.
