Chapter 839 Five-day ultimatum, return to Tianyuan!
The rainy night is hazy.
Blood and water mixed together, staining most of the streets in Fenghuo City.
The air was mixed with a thick smell of gunpowder smoke and the lingering smell of blood, which went straight into the nose.
From the start to the end of Shenting's all-out attack, it just took one day and one night.
But their progress made everyone who knew the news dumbfounded and worried.
This is not a life and death battle between humans and aliens, but a chaotic war within humans.
Catalyzed by the general trend, encouraged by words, and seduced by spies who have already penetrated the inside.
Many cities in the Long Banner territory did not launch frontal defense at all, so they raised white flags and announced their surrender to Shenting.
This is the sequelae of the previous Seven Years War.
The survivors who can survive until now will not know who the next lord is or which territory they will be in at the moment of life and death.
If you can’t survive today, how can you talk about tomorrow?
At this time, many people in Fenghuo City were already hiding in the building, packing their luggage in advance, ready to surrender and flee after the Shenting army came in.
But the strange thing is that the Shenting troops stationed themselves after arriving outside the city, entering a rare truce time.
Just a pair of eyes, a line of sight, but now they are all focused here.
Waiting for the final trump card of Longqi Territory to appear!
“Shenting coerced a large number of civilians into the city this time, forcing Long Qi to break this precedent so that he could occupy the nominal high ground.
Although Long Qi has not been fooled yet, he has How long can they endure it when they reach their final home?"
In an underground shelter in the city, dozens of people sat around a round table, staring intently at the video coming back from the surveillance cameras outside the city. picture.
The troops attacking Shenting are mainly divided into three camps.
One is a team of divine soldiers who have undergone genetic evolution and can still maintain their sanity.
The second is a human shield composed of a large number of irrational evolvers.
The third one is the civilians who came and plundered along the way.
The evolved human shields come first, and the team of magic soldiers and civilians are mixed together. Once the fight starts, no one knows whether they are hitting the magic soldiers or ordinary people.
Therefore, Long Qi was at a loss from the beginning of this battle, and was forced into the current situation.
"Besieging but not attacking means that the benefits from capturing Fenghuo City are far less than surrounding it. What must the Shenting be waiting for?"
"No matter what, the Five Elements Provinces have all fallen. Only the five major cities under direct control are still making the final resistance. So, we should know what the Holy Court is waiting for soon."
This person did not continue, but was present. But a name couldn't help but pop up in everyone's mind.
This time Shenting did not directly attack the Tianyuan territory, but instead attacked the Longqi territory.
If the Dragon Banner Territory can withstand this offensive, then the situation in the New World will remain the same, and Shenting can only think of ways to plan the next attack.
But if the Long Banner territory shows its decline and remains indifferent in the face of this siege, then.
Shen Ting will be able to slowly make a fuss with tens of millions of civilians on this occupied territory.
"The Tianyuan territory is the last territory of mankind that has the strength to resist the Divine Court. If they use righteousness to force them, this is simply a conspiracy."
"Yes, Tianyuan If the territory wants to recruit more survivors to enter the territory and fight against the Divine Court, it must occupy the moral high ground, but now, we don’t know how to deal with this situation.”
Every sentence, the more the whole The more the topic was discussed, the more pessimistic the atmosphere became.
Tianyuan Territory has everything, but what it lacks is a person with charisma who can convince everyone.
If Su Shen was here before, all he had to do was raise his arms and the survivors of the New World would be like headless flies who didn't know where to go.
But it's a pity. Now it's time to see how much strength the Longqi territory can still use to fight back.
If the counterattack is fierce enough, the pressure on Tianyuan Territory will not be too great, but if the counterattack is not enough, the offensive pressure that Tianyuan Territory will bear will be several times that before!
At this time, inside the Provisional United Front Building of Hope City.
"What are you talking about? They want to use the last few cities in the Dragon Flag Territory in exchange for letting us withdraw from the Sky Wall?"
Looking at the latest news coming back from the Dragon Flag Territory, Chen Shen suddenly became pale. , his face was so gloomy that water dripped from his face.
Propping up the sky wall consumes countless manpower and material resources. It is the first and last barrier of Tianyuan territory.
With it, no matter how arrogant the outside evolutionists are, they must actually use their bodies to get through this line of defense.
Available now.
Shenting actually wants to morally kidnap Tianyuan's territory at the expense of several cities to make way for the sky wall?
"Are they crazy? What do they think this is, playing house, or a game?"
"This is a war that requires bloodshed and sacrifices. Do we If we let go of the sky wall, can these people survive?" Feng Tianmin slapped the table, trembling with anger.
"Tell him, it's impossible. Even if all the cities in the Long Banner territory fall, we will never let go of the sky wall!"
Crack.
Feng Tianmin slapped the table hard and made a dent.
At the same time, there was a knock on the door from outside.
“No, Commander Feng, Mayor Chen, and the Shenting troops outside the Sky Wall suddenly attacked. They stopped five kilometers outside our wall and shouted.”
"What are you shouting for?" The expressions of both of them changed at the same time.
“They claim that they have captured Lord Su in the Long Banner territory, and if they want to survive, they will use the sky wall in exchange.”
"In addition, they also said that they control the central cities of the five provinces of Long Banner. Based on a five-day cycle, if the Tianyuan territory does not release the sky-supporting wall for one day, they will randomly select a city and carry out large-scale massacre!"
Boom!
After listening to the staff report, their eyes went dark at the same time, and their thoughts were as chaotic as thunder.
Wars often begin first with a war of public opinion, also known as a "war of hearts and minds."
Whoever can win the public opinion war, occupy the moral high ground, and gather the spirit of fighting will be regarded as a well-known division in the next war, and can stimulate every soldier to display their extraordinary combat effectiveness.
But this time, Tianyuan Territory was undoubtedly in a state of great passivity.
Those Evolutionaries who are hoarding outside the Sky Supporting Wall and have been slow to attack, their purpose is not to use their lives to fight against the Sky Supporting Wall.
It was only now that they really showed their bloodthirsty fangs.
“Lord Su Chan is in the safest shelter in the Dragon Banner Territory. There, even if the entire Dragon Flag Territory is lost, Shenting will never have the strength to open the shelter door. I can be 100% sure that it is Safe.”
“But since they can say such things, it must be another trick of the Demon Soul Clan!” After the shock, Chen Shen took the lead to calm down and began to analyze.
"And since they dare to shout slogans to massacre the city, it means that they have chosen to give up their original position and stand on the opposite side of mankind. We may have a chance to win in the battle of public opinion!"
"And the Five Elements The province, the five capitals, coincidentally correspond to the five royal families."
Having seen the huge blood sacrifice array pattern that was passed back before, the more Chen Shen thought about it, the more he felt that things were not as simple as he imagined.
Those who are in authority are confused, but those who watch are clear.
Especially those of them who are in high positions and whose words and deeds can affect the territory.
From the beginning, I fell into a misunderstanding that the other party had prepared, but there was no way to get out.
So.
“Contact County Magistrate Su and Commander Deben, we will convene an all-army meeting immediately!” “The Sky Wall is the only line of defense for the territory. It is related to the life and death of millions of people and is the last hope of mankind. , we can’t let it go no matter what.”
“In this case, within twenty-five days, the other party will force us to show our trump card, so let’s see who has the better hidden trump card. Big!”
Taking out the password suitcase under the work desk, Chen Shen had a rare look of cruelty on his face.
No one would be willing to use this deadly weapon unless the situation was desperate.
Even the Golden Eagle and the Fall of the North Land, they did not launch it towards the Evolver's position.
We are all human beings, and everyone maintains the last trace of reason and does not want to see a tragic situation in which both sides suffer.
But if Shenting still wants to push further, then the next battle will reach the stage where each other's trump cards are truly revealed.
Winner takes all.
The loser exits!
On April 27, the ninth year of the last calendar year, the wind and rain that lasted for several days finally stopped.
Countless migrating teams set off again, and the tide of corpses rolling repeatedly in the mud also resumed their movements.
Just facing the scorching sun above their heads, all the survivors who knew the current war situation were worried, some good and some bad.
The bad thing is that after twelve o'clock tomorrow night, it will be the end time of Shenting's first "Five Days Ultimatum".
The Tianyuan Territory did not choose to let go of the sky-supporting wall, which meant that at least one capital city in the Five Elements Province would be besieged and massacred by Shenting.
And if they really take action.
Calculating time, since the last disaster struck, it has been nearly half a year since a new disaster struck the wasteland.
I am afraid that before the next disaster occurs, there will be very few survivors left.
The good thing is that Tianyuan Territory's first frontal attack against Shenting finally resulted in a rare victory.
It is rumored that the president who led the Adventurer Association to defeat the three major territorial alliances joined the Tianyuan Territory and became the leader of the army.
Under his command, Tianyuan Territory only paid less than a thousand people to destroy the 100,000-strong Shenting position in one fell swoop, killing tens of thousands of enemies.
You must know that this is still the result of a cold weapon battle in the divine power barrier.
Once there is no interference from the divine enchantment, allowing Tianyuan territory to fight with hot weapons, then Shenting will not have any strength to fight back.
As a result, the trend of public opinion in the New World gradually became polarized as the war situation changed.
In the battle for the "King of the New World".
One group supports the Tianyuan Territory to give up the Dragon Banner Territory and defends the last piece of human land to the death. They cannot relax the defense line and let the Shenting gang of ambitious human traitors get the fruits of victory and take advantage of the aliens behind them.
One group supports the release of the Sky Wall and the innocence of civilians. No matter who will rule the New World next, if there is no population, then he will be a bare commander. No matter how the two sides fight, they must ensure that the only survivor of mankind cannot Died in the civil war.
Including the migration team, Sumo could hear similar fierce quarrels every night.
But he didn't have any solution to such a quarrel.
After losing the identity of Su Shen, the Su Youzong people spoke lightly, and at best they could only have some prestige in the Tianyuan territory.
If you want to raise your voice, there will be a large number of responders.
At least this time in the ruins, it is completely impossible to achieve.
Fortunately, as he got closer and closer to Tianyuan's territory, Sumo's anxious heart finally relaxed a little.
He couldn't wait to go to the place where the alchemy furnace burned seawater.
If the power of the ocean can really be used for burning.
Then, as Chen Shen said, it is time for everyone to reveal their trump cards.
The sun is scorching, and in the summer of the wasteland, the temperature has risen to over 30 degrees.
On the first platform supporting the sky wall.
Chen Shen, Feng Tianmin, and Su Deben stood at the edge together, motionless, looking at the wall.
At this time, the large open space in front of the sky wall was crowded with human heads everywhere, and the corpses left by Shenting were being carried.
In the sixth collision between Tianyuan Territory and Shenting, Tianyuan Territory once again won a great victory with the help of this high wall that was basically impossible to shake.
The other party, on the other hand, could only leave tens of thousands of corpses and flee in despair, being defeated again.
"From last night to now, Shenting has continuously sent millions of zombie waves towards Houtu City. It seems that their plan is serious." Feng Tianmin said solemnly.
Tonight was the last day of the five-day ultimatum. Just yesterday, he secretly prayed that the other party would just say harsh words.
But Shenting's current behavior has directly proved that they just want to speed up and quickly reach the stage where each other's trump cards are revealed.
“Whether it’s true or not, the population of our territory has now exceeded seven million. In recent days, it has been the peak period of migration. Presumably the population will soon exceed ten million, and its size is no larger than that of a dragon. The flag territory is half a minute smaller.”
Chen Shen’s eyes were red, and he held the railing tightly, trying not to think about the casualty figures that were constantly being reported from Houtu City.
Under the tremendous psychological pressure these days, his biological clock has been completely disrupted.
As long as he lay down and closed his eyes every day, it seemed that he could see countless ordinary people standing in front of him and asking him loudly: Why did he choose to give up on them?
Therefore, he could only comfort himself and deceive himself all the time, so that he could feel a little better.
“Calculating the time, it’s time for Su Youzong to come back, right?”
“I would have asked him to leave with me if I had known earlier. I didn’t expect that I would set off later and arrive earlier than him. Some." Su Deben shook his head and looked at the team entering the city under the sky wall.
He came here by water all the way, and he didn’t know if someone attracted his attention.
The ship sailed on the Changlong Fairy River without encountering any obstacles, and returned to Tianyuan Port easily.
"If I go with you, I won't be able to meet the director's father. It's worth it to waste some time to save people." Feng Tianmin forced out a smile.
Successive victories are the only consolation for everyone.
In addition, Su Youzong's return is also something that everyone is looking forward to.
This "newcomer" who has only appeared in the territory for less than a year has already cut through the night sky of the entire territory like a meteor.
His magic and various decisions are unique and no one can replace him.
From morning to now, the three of them seem to have just arrived, but in fact they have been waiting for a long time.
"Hey, another team has come, I don't know if it is"
At the end of the earth, from the far side of the sky wall, another long migration team with no less than ten thousand people came. .
Su Deben pretended to be relaxed and picked up the telescope to take a look, but then he shouted in surprise: "Quick, see if it's his team, and see if it's him sitting on the lizard!"
"Oh?" Chen Shen also looked happy and picked up the binoculars to take a look.
Sure enough, in the distance in front of the team, dozens of mutant lizards were moving forward at the same time.
At this time, after a little recognition, the person sitting on the first lizard was none other than a legendary figure who is now almost regarded as a myth by countless refugees in the Tianyuan territory.
Su Youzong!
