Chapter 570 Xingluo’s defeat and the battlefield killer Dugu Bo

Just when Tianlin was concentrating on his cultivation, earth-shaking changes took place on the mainland.

In the Star Luo Empire, after Dai Tianjue received the news of the surrender of the Wuhun Empire, he didn't care about the agreement. He sent several envoys to the Tiandou Empire from different directions and prepared to attack the city at all costs.

Gengxin City must be taken back, otherwise even if Xingluo and Tiandou join forces, the Qibao Glazed Sect can use this city to raid the hinterland of Xingluo.

As for the lives of Davis and Zhu Zhuyun, he couldn't care so much about it. At worst, he could spend thirty years retraining them. No matter how important his son was, it was still more important than not being the emperor.

Unfortunately, his reaction was still a step too late for Ning Fengzhi and Tianlin. The two people, who had already anticipated his move, sent Dugu Bo and Yin Yang to lead an army of 300,000 people in advance.

The Star Luo Empire originally had an army of 1.4 million, and they originally didn't take it seriously with a mere 300,000. But not long ago, the 700,000 army they sent just lost about 400,000, and the remaining 300,000 were also lost. Big injuries and small injuries.

Therefore, Dai Tianjue could only replace these troops with the original border city defense troops. They would defend the city, while the border troops would serve as the main offensive force.

Of the intact 700,000-strong army, Dai Tianjue only left 100,000 to garrison the Star Luo capital, and the remaining 600,000 were all thrown into the battlefield. It could be said that they all came out in full force.

Unfortunately, Dai Tian never thought that this value was basically under Ning Fengzhi's calculations.

A siege battle is completely different from a confrontation between two armies in the wild. Generally, it requires at least two to five times the number of troops to be successful, and preferably ten times the number of troops to minimize casualties. Due to the existence of soul masters in Douluo Continent, under the influence of soul masters, With help, this multiple can be shortened, but unfortunately, the soul masters in the Star Luo Empire are simply not powerful enough.

Therefore, Ning Fengzhi sent exactly half of Dai Tianjue's troops.

Since Gengxin City was an empty city, even if Dai Tianjue had not attacked the city before, he had adopted a siege strategy. The 600,000 troops were dispersed, with the main force at the south gate, and the corresponding north gate with the smallest number of troops, less than 50,000.

Yin Yang led a legion of thousands of high-level soul masters to avoid the Star Luo Empire's patrol troops and attack the North Gate at night, almost annihilating the entire North Gate army. Then, the main force of 250,000 entered the city from the North Gate. Dai Tianjue had no time to react.

But even so, he still had more than half a million troops, which was still twice the number, so he launched the siege order without hesitation. He even took action himself and fought Yin Yang to the same place.

Just as the fierce battle between the two was in full swing, Dugu Bo sent the remaining 50,000 troops to guard the various escape routes, while he himself made a surprise attack on the Star Luo Empire's rear military formation.

In this battle, Dugu Bo fully demonstrated what it means to be a deadly weapon on the battlefield. He alone can become a nightmare for hundreds of thousands of troops.

He first turned his own Jade Scale Snake Emperor poison into poisonous mist and spread it, killing about twenty to thirty thousand people in Xingluo within two quarters of an hour.

Then use the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal temporarily borrowed from Yang Wudi to dissipate the poisonous fog. Killing people in war is inevitable, but the killing can be reduced by deterrence.

These tens of thousands of people were a deterrent. After the poison mist was lifted, Dugu Bo spit out new poison and used a snow-colored swan kiss. The spread speed was faster than the green-scaled snake emperor poison just now, and the toxicity seemed to be more violent, but in fact this poison It's just that the paralyzing poison is not fatal. Within a short period of time, more than 200,000 troops were poisoned and unable to move.

Faced with this situation, Dai Tianjue could only choose to withdraw his troops. Dugu Bo's poison spread too fast. If this continues, his entire army will be annihilated. As for the 200,000 people who have fallen, he can't take care of so many. Anyway, he was already poisoned, and he thought he might not survive.

This army of more than 200,000 people became abandoned. The 20,000 to 30,000 people who had just turned into blood had frightened them. They thought that they would follow in the same footsteps, but Dugu Bo promised at this time to surrender. If you don't kill them, you can detoxify them immediately.

Without hesitation, most of the people chose to surrender. Dugu Bo pretended to shuttle among the army with a flower of unknown variety. There was nothing special about this flower, it was just fragrant and had no other use.

Dugu Bo told them that anyone who smells the fragrance of this flower has been detoxified and will be able to move after twelve hours.

All the soldiers cried with joy. They didn't have to die. The colleagues who had turned into blood just now really frightened them.

In fact, Dugu Bo's paralyzing poison can only last for one day, and even those with advanced skills will be cured in a short time.

Dai Tianjue led the defeated soldiers and wanted to retreat back to Xingluo through a small road, but on the way they were ambushed by an army of 50,000 troops arranged by Dugu Bo in advance, and tens of thousands more were killed and injured.

However, with Dai Tianjue here, Dugu Bo also ordered that it would be enough to kill them all at once, and there was no need to chase them, otherwise most of them would be killed by Dai Tianjue.

Dai Tianjue escaped like a frightened bird. He had always heard that Dugu Bo was good at group fighting, but he had never heard that he was good at it to this extent. Is the speed at which the poisonous mist spreads a joke? If Dugu Bo recklessly releases the poison, don't worry. Speaking of one or two cities, the entire continent, except for those powerful titled Douluo, or those who are Soul Saint or above with the ability to resist poison, are bound to die.

In other words, Dugu Bo, holding the Snow Swan Kiss, theoretically has the power to destroy the entire continent if he is not blocked by anyone.

In the end, there were only about 170,000 troops who fled back to Star Luo. Counting the 300,000 who fled back from the previous war, the largest military power in the Douluo Continent actually had less than 500,000 soldiers left. And all of them were defeated.

The rest were either killed or surrendered. They were no match for the Qibao Glazed Sect.

Now Dai Tianjue finally understands the sorrow of the Tiandou Empire when it faced the Wuhun Empire before. It is probably the same scene. Although there are many troops, they have no power to fight back when they encounter a super-scale titled strong man. Titled Douluo For the military, it is too much of a dimensionality reduction blow.

Those who are good at group battles can kill a large area with one kill. Those who are not good at group battles, as long as they don't act stupidly and fight against millions of troops, conduct assassinations and sneak attacks, and take the heads of generals from millions of troops, it is no more difficult than picking out the treasure.

Why on earth did they think that with an army of one million, they could ignore the Spirit Empire and the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect?

Anyway, Dai Tianjue didn't dare to move lightly now. He recalled most of the troops outside and stood firm in the capital. Now he only hoped that the envoy sent to Tiandou could bring him some good news.

I heard that the Tiandou Empire has developed a lot of hidden weapons in recent years, and has also established a hidden weapon army, the Tang Family Army. I hope it can achieve some results.

However, Dai Tian would never come to attack Gengxin City. After Gu Ran arrived, he was planning to fight in the opposite direction. Starting from Gengxin City and advancing southward, Gu Ran wanted to capture the entire Xingluo territory in a short period of time and complete the task. This country-destroying war.
