Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 627: Emergency situation

Stepping through the white snow, the attack of the first unit of the Western Fifth Army was far smoother than imagined.

Marching all the way to Dongwang City, they captured one city after another, and the casualties were much smaller than in previous years.

December 19, 414 in the Lux calendar.

With only one or two days to go, the first unit of the Fifth West Army will arrive at Dongwang City before other units of the Fifth West Army and take on the important task of setting up a camp.

However, crises always come quietly and inadvertently.

In order to coordinate various troops and jointly achieve the goal of retaking the plains, Wansheng Kingdom's various armies will rely on magicians to maintain regular encrypted communication.

Yesterday, the Luhua Army held talks with other generals and learned about the situation on other fronts.

The eastern front, especially the Second Eastern Army, took advantage of the gap in the city wall for unknown reasons and advanced all the way until they penetrated the enemy camp. The two sides engaged in a fierce exchange of fire and were now in a stalemate.

On the central front, after a long march, the Wansheng Kingdom’s Central Recapture Army also noticed the fact that the Luoze Empire was shrinking its front.

However, due to the fear that the Wansheng Congress would use the vastness of the plain to carry out detours, encircle the two wings of the army and cut off the retreat, the central front did not dare to move too fast, leaving many defenders along the way.

Of course, many generals were dissatisfied with this decision.

"I think those humans are just cowardly. Now we should concentrate all our forces and crush them all like eggs, so that they can see the power of the orcs."

The opinions of these few people failed to change the choices made by the vast majority of generals.

This year has been so abnormal.

Although in previous years, the Luoze Empire would shrink its front line, this year it was too strong, as if it had completely abandoned the entire plain. The Central Recapture Army took back several important buildings on the plain almost effortlessly. City.

As long as we don’t know the strategy adopted by the Luoze Empire, the best option is to be cautious and avoid the army falling into their trap.

As for the Fifth Western Army...

Except for the first unit, which went extremely smoothly, the other two units suffered to varying degrees.

As the Luhua Army was worried? Human beings are building walls much faster than imagined. They have already placed many weapons on the city walls.

Many of them radiated to the marching direction of the Third Front of the Fifth Western Army and the cities it wanted to capture.

If we march according to the original plan, we will inevitably be attacked by the Luo Ze garrison on the city wall from the side. After consideration, we decided to lead the third unit of the Fifth West Army to temporarily change the route. This delayed a lot of time.

The Second Unit of the Fifth West Army is not much better. The big city they are responsible for containing? The garrison inside is always braving the severe cold? They are training openly and openly on the city wall, as if they are specially training for Wansheng. The scouts of the country watched.

Occasionally, the Luoze Empire would act "real" and command troops to leave the city, as if they were going to a real battlefield.

At this time, the second unit of the Fifth Western Army immediately became more energetic and ready to contain them at any time. Unexpectedly, those soldiers just walked around the field and went back.

This situation happened not only once or twice, but many times, the second unit of the Fifth Western Army became startled and nervous.

Some commanders couldn't hold it any longer, intending to pin down the human soldiers who were pretending to be on the snow and beat them up, telling them not to wander around when they had nothing to do.

But these pretentious human soldiers are too close to the occupied city? It is extremely convenient to retreat or seek help.

Under Luo Ze Empire's strategy, the Second Force suffered a big loss. After repeated back and forth, the progress of the Second Force of the Western Fifth Army in carrying out its original mission was also slowed down a lot.

According to conservative estimates, it will take a full week for the second and third troops of the Fifth West Army to converge and jointly attack Dongwang City.

It is worth mentioning that in view of the excellent performance of the first unit of the Fifth West Army, General Zhenguo has approved that the first unit of the West Fifth Army arriving at Dongwang City can rely on their judgment to carry out the attack on Dongwang City first.

At that time, Luhuajun’s face did not show any joy.

According to past experience, the troops sent by the Luoze Empire to Dongwang City will account for more than one-third of the troops they dispatched to the entire Boots area.

The first unit led by the Luhua Army, excluding the soldiers who guarded the fruits of victory and the soldiers who uprooted strongholds and established new strongholds in key places, and after deducting the number of casualties, only about 20,000 people were left.

Dongwang City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Even in winter, if their troops attack Dongwang City with such a small number of people, it will still be overwhelming.

The general Zhenguo did not have a hard request and must take back Dongwang City.

What he gave the Luhua Army was the right to adapt to circumstances. The Luhua Army could fight or not fight at all.

The Luhua Army has decided, and there is really no other way, so let’s try the strategy.

Anyway, it failed. In winter, it was difficult to control the human soldiers wrapped like rice dumplings on the plains.

But before the Fifth West Army could march to the West Fifth Army, a piece of news broke his fantasy of attacking Dongwang City just the next day.

The Luhua Army received a call for help from the magicians from the rear troops.

“Report, we don’t know where an elite Luo Ze Empire force emerged from. They carried out surprise attacks on various strongholds and recaptured cities, and the fruits of our victory were taken away again! Request Support.”

"Report, the opponent is extremely powerful and should be at least A level or above."

Before he finished speaking, the soldier who used the crystal ball to communicate with the Luhua Army was cut in half with a sharp knife, and blood was sprinkled on the crystal ball, completely cutting off communication.

This has never happened.

Having a premonition that the situation was urgent, the Luhua Army quickly ordered people to contact General Zhenguo of Wansheng Kingdom. As a result, unexpectedly, the other two teams of the Western Fifth Army also encountered the same situation.

At some point, a group of powerful soldiers arrived at the rear of the Western Fifth Army. Wearing light clothing, they moved on the snowy plains and launched surprise attacks on several cities or strongholds, causing countless casualties in the rear.

And that group of people continued to move, and it was difficult for the rear troops to withstand their offensive.

After hearing the news, Luhuajun frowned, Wanshengguo actually used such a trick.

Furthermore, it is still unclear how the Luoze Empire used these elites to enter the battlefield.

Did they come from the other side of the wall, or did they disguise themselves as ordinary soldiers and mingled with the troops stationed in the big city, or did they build a teleportation magic circle in some hidden place?

No matter what, there is no way to sit idly by and ignore this situation.

As the elite strongholds are removed one by one, the follow-up actions of the supply troops will be restricted by others, which will have an impact on the attack on Dongwang City.
