——————————
Gu Xi didn't know why the enemy retreated, but after seeing the battlefield and the intelligence sent to him, Gu Xi understood that this was an opportunity.
The troops that the Maharaja arranged to guard near Dragon City were originally two of the Seven Eyes, Seven Hearts, and Seven Tentacles troops under the Maharaja.
One is the Void Demonic Heart Troop that guards the source of the Void, with a strength of 200,000, and is mainly for defense.
The average level of soldiers is around level 25. Their situation is quite special. They look a bit like dematerialized ghosts, but they are more energetic than ghosts.
It's the kind where the body becomes insubstantial and physical attacks have almost no effect.
But their own attacks can hurt others. It can be said that they are more difficult to deal with than ghosts.
The other one is the Rift Tentacle Troop within the Seven Tentacles. The number of this troop is about 250,000.
How can I say it looks like a sutured body?
Half of their bodies look like complete human troops. Whether it is the weapons in their hands or the armor on their bodies, they are all dressed up as standard human soldiers.
But the left half of their bodies is different.
This part of the body directly transformed into tentacles, as if the body was split into two pieces and tentacles were placed in the other half.
These tentacles are extremely elastic. Not only are they not easy to cut off, they can also be attacked at a semi-long range.
Most importantly, these tentacles are somewhat destructive to space.
In the past three years or so, the Void Demonic Heart troops have mainly been engaged in targeted defense, while the Rift Tentacle troops have been the main force in destroying the red light curtain.
It's a pity that their strength is not very strong, with an average level of about 27, which was just like that in the eyes of Gu Xi three years ago. In the past three years, they have not taken down the defensive shield put up by the Sky Axe.
At the beginning, Moore, who was guarding here, thought they could break in and stared at them for a long time.
Later, it was discovered that their methods were of no use against the defensive shield, so they paid no attention to them anymore.
The main ones being withdrawn this time are the Void Demonic Heart troops.
As far as Gu Xi's guess was concerned, it was probably because no one had been guarding it for more than three years. There was something wrong with the Source of the Void, and the Void Demonic Heart troops had to be transferred back to deal with it.
As for Gu Xi's actions to increase troops near Longcheng during this period, it was not that the king had not seen it.
It's just that the monarch has always believed that Gu Xi's strength is insufficient, and he has always been hiding behind the defensive shield.
Even if there were more troops, it would be of no use. Gu Xi simply did not dare to open the defensive shield and come to his side.
Because the Great Lord saw clearly that Gu Xi had been developing through the defensive shield.
As soon as the defensive shield is opened, their work over the past few years will be in vain.
The prince's men can attack Gu Xi's territory from all angles.
By then, let alone Gu Xi's men, they would not have enough troops. Even if they had enough troops, they would not be able to defend against the Great Lord's attack.
The Maharaja observed Gu Xi here for more than three years.
Although I don't know the British people in Victoria City as well, I still have a deep understanding of them.
He believed that Gu Xi would never let go of the defensive shield.
For this reason, when there was a problem with the Source of the Void, he transferred back the Void Demonic Heart troops.
As for the Rift Tentacle troops, just stay where they are and let them continue attacking the defensive shield.
In order to ensure a better fighting environment for the Rift Tentacle troops, the Maharaja also transferred a group of servants from nearby.
There are quite a few of these servant armies, about 300,000 people.
Mainly there are existences such as shadow ghosts, zombies, and corpses of cultists, as well as some existences such as wooden people and poisonous people. Their level is not too high, level 15 to 19 is the limit of these servant armies.
The stronger you are, if you pass level 20, you will almost be accepted into the main battle force by the king.
They won't be used as a servant army here.
As for wild monsters below level 15, the monarch has no time to pay attention to them.
In their eyes, monsters below level 15 are all cannon fodder, miscellaneous soldiers, and food, and do not need to be counted in the order of the troops at all.
These miscellaneous wild monsters, whose number may exceed one million, are like a flock of sheep mixed in the outermost edge of the defense line.
Perhaps when the defensive barrier is broken, these miscellaneous soldiers will have some use. Anyway, in the eyes of the monarch, these miscellaneous soldiers are not actually included in the battle order.
But Gu Xi's side is different. In Gu Xi's eyes, all existence is meaningful.
In other words, he counts all enemies.
This is exactly why one of the two main battle units of the Maharaja was transferred away. As a result, Gu Xi's battle report showed that the enemy had transferred a small part.
However, this is also good for Gu Xi. At least Gu Xi is not too careless now because the monarch's defense troops have been transferred.
Instead, he carefully mobilized his troops, carefully analyzed the enemy's situation, and carefully considered the next battle ideas.
In battle, what you fear is not the ever-changing situation, but what you have missed.
Thinking everything through before the war is the best idea.
If there is no way to cover everything, then you have to find a way to plug all your flaws.
Although it was not the first time that Gu Xi faced such a battle, this time he was fighting against the monarch, so Gu Xi naturally had to be cautious.
Gu Xi made various plans to deal with different situations one after another.
At the same time, Gu Xi's main heroes were also mobilized.
Among these heroes, the one who cares least is naturally Arroyo from the Black Spear Battalion.
At this time, he looked excited.
Ever since the last battle with the Dragon Tooth Soldier and the Hundred-Headed Dragon under the golden apple tree, Arroyo had drifted away.
He wasn't quite sure about his fighting ability before.
It's different now. His Black Spear Battalion are experts at fighting demigod-level soldiers.
The soldiers under the monarch on the opposite side were only level 35 at their strongest, which was still far from the requirements of the demigod level.
At most, all the soldiers in their team are champions.
But so what, what Arroyo killed was a championship level one.
The same expression was on the side of Shi Li.
The last time he fought the Dragon Tooth Soldiers, he hadn't had enough of them yet.
This time he must kill hard and get back all the experience he lost last time.
As for the other heroes who came here one step ahead, they all had the same look.
They knew clearly that the strength of their troops was not comparable to that of the Maharaja's troops, but they had no fear of death. In their eyes, all enemies were paper tigers, and as long as they fought, there was no possibility of failure.
Among these troops, the most stable ones are the undead arrow tower hunter troops transferred from Black Pole City.
They didn't show any signs after being transferred here. They just silently set up tall arrow towers and prepared to attack.
