Chapter 154 The disparity of forces
It was too late, and the Black Iron City defenders cooperated with the Fire Legion's actions two days ago. The reason why they did not attack the city was that they had to wait for the main force to arrive.
Thinking of the Black Iron Guard's mission, Cai Dao was not in a hurry to arrange the task immediately and pondered for a while: "The Black Iron Guard will not attack before the main force arrives. The cavalry of the Flame Legion must be coming to meet with the Black Iron Guard and trying to block us in the city!"
He quickly thought that if he wanted to set up a formation to ambush, he had to take advantage of the other party's siege before the other party's cavalry arrived, otherwise there would be no chance. In this battle, it would not only face thirty times the enemy, but also forty times the enemy's enemy, including the Black Iron Guard, it should be 40 times the enemy.
It's hard, it's hard! Cai Dao suddenly felt that this battle might not be as smooth as he imagined. The enemy was too powerful, and it was hard for him to imagine that he could defeat the opponent. Even if he had to lose, he had to fight this battle. Even if he was defeated, he would have to fight again.
Faced with an absolutely overwhelming force, Cai Dao knew very well that only by concentrating troops could the effect. At present, there were only about 600 cavalrymen. If they were used separately, they would be instantly submerged in the crowd. He regretted it. Maybe Heide should have studied the power-absorbing crystal earlier, so that it could be useful at this time.
Facing an absolutely powerful opponent, suddenly, no one could think of any effective method. In fact, no matter from which point of view, even if the Gran Army had 10,000 strange plots, they would have to lose. As Cai Dao had been thinking, no mind could play a role in the face of absolute power.
There is no so-called combat plan anymore, and the Flame Legion has not even given the Gran Army time to arrange it calmly. The only thing everyone can count on is Cai Dao, who is counting on his own luck, otherwise it would be impossible to survive in this war.
Escape is a way. At present, the Black Iron Guards have only 5,000 people at most, and it is impossible to completely stop the Gran Army from escaping. But if they want to escape, Cai Dao would never wait until now. He would not believe in evil. He would fight with the Flame Legion in Black Tiger City. In this small city where there is basically no defensive force, he will fight with the fierce Flame Legion to fight for life and death.
Everyone was looking at Cai Dao, waiting for his instructions. Now, everyone knew very well that if they fought desperately, any combat plan was meaningless. Cai Dao pondered that the only thing he could rely on now was the formation established by the power storage crystal, as well as the strength of himself and Qingniu.
Thinking hard, what advantages does the Gran Army have? Is there no advantage at all? His eyes suddenly lit up, and four words appeared in his mind: Beheading action!
I silently calculated in my mind that the formation can cause huge damage to the enemy when the opponent arrives, and then cut off the enemy's commando. The commando will be eliminated, and then the beheading mission will be carried out, creating riots and chaos in the enemy's camps using the method of special operations. Then, the chances of winning this battle will surface.
Thinking of this, he smiled confidently and glanced at Feilin first: "This time, your mission is to investigate the position of Horn and the Commando. In fact, this is a mission. Usually the commando is on the side of the commander. This is related to the outcome of this war, and you must do it!"
Feilin gritted her teeth. At worst, she could take action to get in. With her skills and lurking ability, she should be very sure to get into the military camp. Cai Dao's eyes turned to Carder and Hull: "I'll take back what I said just now. You will gather all the warriors above the French samurai in our army to form a special battle camp, and there is no need for a witchcraft warrior!"
"All of you go back to the camp and tell everyone that this will be a battle that will determine the life and death of the Gran Army. It will either rise or destroy, and everyone will put out all their energy." Cai Dao swept across everyone with a cold face, and everyone agreed.
After the meeting, Cai Dao came to the city and looked into the distance. Although he knew that the Black Iron Guard must be nearby, he did not see it, which made him a little uneasy. Perhaps it was not only the Black Iron Guard who came. He thought that if he was prepared, he might not be able to snipe the Gran Army. Perhaps they could not keep the backbone of the French warriors, but they could definitely keep most of the Gran Army soldiers.
After thinking about it, at the speed of the opponent's cavalry, I'm afraid it will be possible to arrive in two days. At that time, it is impossible to break through. Therefore, if you want to set up a formation, you have to take advantage of the present. Cai Dao pondered for a moment, and after a while, Xuanji suddenly spoke: "Old monster, I feel that it's not long before the condensed body, just a little more people are enough. At that time, I can help you! If the battle situation is really not going well, I will choose in the city."
Xuanji refers to a little bit of people. Last time, this guy swallowed hundreds of prisoners of war in one fell swoop and just picked his teeth and said that he had just enough to plug his teeth. Cai Dao's eyes lit up. If Xuanji succeeded in condensed, it would undoubtedly increase his strong combat power. Thinking of his foundation in Heihu City, he shook his head: "Don't attack the residents of the city. After the war begins, there are people, so you can suck it slowly!"
The Sky-Surfing Formation, the Phantom Mirror Formation? After experiencing the last ambush, Cai Dao suddenly felt that both formations could play a certain role in the battlefield, and at least trap some members of the enemy. However, the terrain near Black Tiger City was almost all flat. Because of the war half a year ago, the woods with a radius of two or three kilometers outside the city were razed to the ground (in the era of cold weapons war, both sides of the offense and defense city would choose to clear out the impact of vision and obstacles outside the city).
This leads to the fact that the illusion mirror array is basically ineffective. In fact, the illusion mirror array is an illusion array. The reason why it is a "mirror" is because it itself continues or reverses everything you see like a mirror. Those who enter the celestial array will immediately disappear from their vision, and of course, the people behind are unlikely to be fooled. With the illusion mirror array, this shortcoming can be made up.
However, precisely because the radius of several miles outside the city is flat, the effect of the illusion mirror array is not very good. It is very simple. If you enter the illusion mirror array, you will be affected, and if you don’t enter, you won’t be blind. Of course, you can see the fact that a group of people suddenly disappear. Despite this, the first formation chosen by Cai Dao is still the mystery array. After all, the consumption of this formation is the least. Although it has no lethality, Xuanji is an alternative secret weapon. The enemy’s death will also hit the enemy’s morale.
"It's a pity that if I succeed in condensed and refine the Blood River Flag and cast the Blood River Array, these soldiers will be the most wonderful sacrifice!" Xuan Ji's demonic nature is a bit guilty. He uses tens of thousands of people as sacrifices, and he is worthy of being a person in the devil's way.
The Heavenly Misty Formation is not enough to cause too much damage to the enemy. Cai Dao pondered for a while: "I know a scorched earth formation, but that demands great power. A thousand kilograms of power-causing crystals are definitely not enough to be used, but I can only make do with it. Anyway, this is not a heavenly soldier and general! Bull Nose, you can pour the Dao power as soon as possible, and you must arrange the formation tomorrow."
Cai Dao actually didn't know the original name of the scorched earth formation. However, the formation was extremely sharp and even killed the immortals. He didn't know everything. However, even if it could make the broken part of the scorched earth formation, it would be enough for a monk like Qingniu to drink a pot, let alone ordinary people.
What can a thousand kilograms of power-calorie do? The scorched earth formation must be set on the head of Horn's central army. However, Black Tiger City can be besieged and stationed from all directions. In which direction will it be stationed? Cai Dao was sobered up and left the city alone, patrolled outside the city for a while, and when he came back, he had already had a scheming in his mind.
There are flat lands within a few kilometers outside the city, and there are not no reason why Black Tiger City was established here. However, there are several large wooded areas several kilometers away from the north and west. If he were Horn, it would not be possible to set up the central army there. Therefore, only the east and south are left. The Flame Legion went up from the south. The most likely one is that the central army was stationed in the south and surrounded the other three parties.
At the south of the city, Cai Dao smiled and turned to the city head of the south of the city. There was obviously a large enough open area outside the south of the city for the Flame Legion to station the army. If he wanted to break through, the north and west would be the best choice. Although the army could be stationed there, the existence of the woods would inevitably make the opponent's army's defense line not deep enough.
Although Horn is not very clear about his intentions so far, it is certain that Horn wants to annihilate the Gran army in one fell swoop. But Horn should theoretically know the strength of the Gran army. If he fights street battles, the Flame Legion will definitely suffer a lot - but if he really fights street battles, the lethality of Cai Dao and Qingniu can be limited.
There is a scorched earth formation outside the south of the city. What about the other three city gates? The attacks between the north gate and the west gate are likely not very fierce, so Cai Dao felt it was necessary to set up another formation outside the east gate. However, he did not know whether the power storage crystal was enough, so it was necessary to temporarily place other people's hands at the north gate and the west gate. As for the south city, Cai Dao and Qingniu will defend, and other forces will mainly be wary of the other three gates.
In just one day, Cai Dao only needs one night to implement the beheading plan and the riot plan, and as long as all aspects cooperate, one night will be enough to defeat the Flame Legion. However, he doubted whether his side had time. The Black Iron Guards would probably attack the city first and then take turns to fight. In this way, it would be possible that the city would be broken without mentioning it.
After thinking about it, he shook his head. In short, this battle requires all the resources that can be used in his hands. For example... Thunder Talisman, he smiled. Since his strength has increased greatly, he has not used the Thunder Talisman for a long time. On the battlefield, the Thunder Talisman may play an unimaginable role - especially on rainy days! If the rain only falls above the enemy's head, it will be even more interesting.
He was thinking about it here, but Qingniu was exhausted in the logistics warehouse holding the power crystal. According to Cai Dao's meaning, it is best to have a powerful ancient formation like the scorched earth formation that is better than Qingniu's pure Taoist power. If it is mixed with Cai Dao's true energy, the effect will definitely be greatly reduced. As for whether it is true, Qingniu may never know in his life.
After losing Dao power for a long time, Qingniu couldn't bear it. If he lost all of this, wouldn't he be as tired as a dog? However, he also knew that this was a very critical moment. Whether his and Cai Dao's plans could work and whether they could retain the Gran army would be able to rely on this move.
Sometimes when I think about it, he also feels very magical. He unknowingly stood on the same front with Cai Dao, and it was the most solid one. However, the ancient immortal magic in Cai Dao's mind really made him covet, and from any angle, he had no reason to continue to be an enemy of Cai Dao in this world. Furthermore, Cai Dao seems to be not an evil demon, but a disciple of the ancient immortal family.
However, the only thing that made him a little worried was Cai Dao's strength. Cai Dao's strength has increased too quickly. He has had tens of thousands of years of experience in his mood. As long as he obtains enough metal materials, he can achieve further strength. If Cai Dao returns to Earth, wouldn't he be the world of cultivation? After thinking about it, he laughed silently. If Cai Dao had enough strength, he would naturally ascend to the fairy world...
Cai Dao is drawing talismans now, and he is drawing the Five Thunder Points. With his current strength, the Heavenly Thunder Points are far from being drawn. However, the Five Thunder Points are already very powerful talismans in the Taoist world, and it is indeed the case for Qingniu. After changing one talisman after another, he was also a little tired after drawing ten consecutive pictures.
Faced with such an upcoming war, Xuan Ji thought very simply, how to get more "food" in this war, and then complete the condensed body in one fell swoop. After condensed body, practice for a while and take revenge in the future.
These people thought it simple because they would never have any worries about their lives in this war. But what others thought was never simple. Although Cai Dao said it excitedly and described victory in hope, they were still very clear that there was a dead end in front of them. Maybe there was hope for victory, but that was no different from a miracle.
Instead of expecting the miracle to appear, it might be better to find it out by yourself. At least many people think so, but at this time they suddenly find that they can no longer leave. Or, when they are labeled as Gran Army, this matter is destined, and there is only one choice in front of them, to continue to follow Cai Dao until they die in battle.
In contrast, the tension among the residents in the city is far less oppressive than that among the Gran army, because the residents in the city think that this time is the same as before, as long as the Gran army is defeated or the city is broken, everything will be started again.
But they didn't know that this time, Horn came with the City Massacre Order. If the Gran army was defeated, then the ones that remained in the city would inevitably be massacre and death, blood and fire.
A big battle is finally coming...
