Chapter 784: Generalissimo Jun guards the Heavenly Pass

Hearing Jun Moxiao's question, Baili and Feng pondered for a long time before he replied slowly:

"At this point in the war, the enemy has lost about three million, and our army has also lost about three million."

Jun Moxiao calculated in his heart, and then said sadly:

"On the battlefield, cruel and ruthless, countless fresh lives have turned into white bones in a blink of an eye, and I don't know when there will be no war?"

Baili Kazufeng replied in a tired tone:

"Between people, as long as there is a relationship of interest, there will be contradictions."

"The same is true for countries and countries, competing for land, competing for resources, fighting for power and status, where there is contention, there will be war, and the war should be endless!"

Jun Moxiao looked at the terrain of the battlefield and the defense line set up by Baili Hefeng according to local conditions, and asked suspiciously:

"Supposedly we have a favorable terrain and we are on the defensive side, so the casualties should be small, so why should there be the same number of casualties on both sides?"

Baili Kazufeng explained:

"Because our army is mostly recruited, when we start the attack, the enemy's casualties are far greater than ours, but as soon as the defense line is breached, our casualties will immediately increase."

"The combat experience and combat effectiveness of our soldiers are too far behind the enemy's, and in every battle, we have the advantage first, and when the enemy breaks through the defensive line and fights in close combat, our advantage is quickly wiped out."

"In a head-on battle, our soldiers are far from being their opponents, and the advantage will change little by little, and eventually it will become evenly matched."

"Thankfully, we had a defensive line that gave us the advantage at the beginning of the game, otherwise we wouldn't have had a chance of a draw."

Jun Moxiao nodded slightly and said:

"The gap between recruits and veterans is indeed not small, this war has just begun, a gate of heaven, probably not enough to stop their progress, we must be fully prepared to fight a protracted war!"

As they spoke, on the battlefield in front of them, the army of Baili and Feng had already withdrawn their troops, and the two of them hurriedly jumped down the mountain and went to the barracks.

On the other side, the siege generals who had just retreated back to the camp also hurriedly walked into Wu Changkong's barracks.

As soon as he entered the barracks, he knelt down and said:

"Second Highness, the last general Leng Hanyun is incompetent, and he failed to attack the opponent's fifth line of defense today."

Wu Changkong seemed to have known for a long time, and was not surprised, but said in a calm tone:

"General Leng get up first, it's not your fault, we can't attack this time, we'll continue next time."

Leng Hanyun got up and said unwillingly:

"We could have expected to succeed, but their reinforcements have arrived, and they are so strong that we are forced to withdraw our troops."

Wu Changkong looked at a middle-aged man sitting beside him and asked:

"Master Fan, how should we continue this battle?"

If Jun Moxiao is here, he must know this Fan Junshi, his name is Fan Moyou, and he is also a famous strategist in the Demon Realm Army, he also participated in the war three thousand years ago, although he is not a military advisor by Ye Wuyue's side, but the general he assists has also achieved great results.

Fan Moyou had been staring at the map on the table in front of him for a long time, as if there was endless fun hidden in that map, and when he heard Wu Changkong's question, he withdrew his gaze and replied in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant:

"Of the six lines of defense, we have already broken through four, and the most difficult one will be the last one, which is the one at the real entrance of Tianmen Mountain."

"After this half a month of attacking, presumably His Royal Highness also discovered that the army led by Baili and Feng are mostly recruits, and we are just very difficult to break through, once they are broken, they will not be able to resist our attack at all, and in terms of combat effectiveness, we have an absolute advantage."

"It's a pity that the terrain of this Tianmen Pass is narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, no matter how many troops we have, we can't give full play to our normal combat effectiveness, and we can only enter more than 100,000 or 200,000 people each time, and their defense lines are one after another, which adds a lot of resistance to our attack."

"Now, their reinforcements have begun to arrive, and there will definitely be more to come."

"Our time is running out, and the longer we drag, the more difficult the situation will be, so I suggest that we launch one last sneak attack tonight, attack at night, and break through all their defenses tonight, no matter the cost."

Wu Changkong frowned slightly and said:

"If we want to break through the last two lines of defense, we will pay a heavy price, and even if we succeed, our troops in the past are very limited, won't we be besieged by them?"

Fan Moyou said softly:

"His Royal Highness can ask the Night Generalissimo for support, he will definitely send a large army to come."

Wu Changkong asked suspiciously:

"Will the Night Marshal send troops to support?"

Fan Moyou said in a firm tone:

"Definitely, because we are only the vanguard, and the bigger battlefield is in the West Rain Country, we have been blocked at Tianmen Pass for too long, which should greatly exceed the expectations of the Night Generalissimo."

"Therefore, now the army of the night generalissimo is actually not far from us."

Wu Changkong immediately said without hesitation:

"Okay, I'll send someone to ask for support, General Leng, you take the soldiers to eat quickly, rest immediately after dinner, recuperate your spirits, and prepare for the night attack."

After the messenger and Leng Hanyun went out, Wu Changkong and Fan Moyou pointed to the terrain on the map and discussed the specific night attack plan.

In the camp tent of Baili Hefeng, the Tiger King strode in, he bowed slightly and saluted Baili Hefeng:

"The last general, Wang Hu, see General Baili."

Baili Kazufeng nodded and said:

"General Wang has worked hard, Tianmen Pass can hold on for so long, General Wang has made a lot of contributions!"

"Come, let me introduce you, this is the Lord of the Jun Mo Xiao Monarch Pavilion from Lingyun Pavilion."

Wang Hu immediately turned to Jun Mo and saluted with a smile:

"The last general, Wang Hu, meet the lord of the Monarchy."

Jun Mo looked at the tall and burly Wang Hu with a smile and exclaimed:

"Sure enough, it is a fierce general, just now I saw General Wang on the mountain commanding a degree on the battlefield, when the other party was defeated, General Wang took the lead, ran in the front, and pursued by victory, not bad, not bad, hold Tianmen Pass, General Wang is indeed a great meritorious!"

After such a long time of training, Wang Hu also knew that as a deputy general, he could not take the credit of the main general, and immediately replied loudly:

"Pavilion master praises, my last general is just acting according to orders, and the matter of arranging troops is commanded by the general of Baili, how dare the last general take credit!"

Baili and Feng immediately said:

"Here, we are all one, and the credit for guarding the pass is not that of any one person, but of all our soldiers."

"What's more, the war is not over yet, and it's not yet time to reward meritorious deeds, let's take a look at the map first and discuss the next step of the defense strategy!"

Jun Mo looked at the map with a smile, and after a while, he asked:

"What is General Baili's plan?"

Baili and Feng thought for a while before replying slowly:

"Originally, we didn't think much about it, we just tried our best to defend, we could hold it for as long as we could, and when the army arrived, we would discuss the next plan of action."

"However, now that the Monarch Pavilion Lord has arrived, according to the orders of our Heavenly King, we will unconditionally obey the command of the Monarch Pavilion Lord in all actions here, from now on, the Monarch Pavilion Lord is the generalissimo of our immortal realm, and everything will obey the orders of the Generalissimo Monarch."

Jun Mo smiled and said in a deep voice:

"For the deployment of Tianmen Pass, General Baili is the most clear, therefore, here, you are still in command of the battle, I am responsible for guarding the rear, if I need support, I will also send other troops to supplement it at any time."

Baili and Feng thought about it, and then said to Jun Mo with a smile:

"Obey the orders of Generalissimo Jun, however, although Tianmen Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is not an impregnable wall, it is not impenetrable, if the demon army attacks with all its might, we will not be able to defend it for long, and sooner or later it will still be broken by them."

Jun Moxiao nodded and replied:

"I know that the Baili General can block them for half a month, which has greatly relieved our pressure, in fact, the best defense is to attack, if we have enough troops at this moment, it is not a passive defense, but to rush out of the Tianmen Pass, take the initiative to fight out, and it is the best choice to move the battlefield outside the pass."

Baili Hefeng looked quite helpless and said:

"Yes, if the troops are enough, there is no need to be beaten so aggrieved passively, but unfortunately, our troops are too small, and now Wu Changkong still has five million troops, and all our troops add up to only three million, and the combat effectiveness is uneven."

"The 800,000 elites of Lingyun Pavilion are indeed very strong, but our army in Yong'an City is mostly recruits, and this comparison does not have an advantage in the defense of Tianmen Pass."

Jun Mo replied with a smile and slowly:

"If Wu Changkong is indeed only five million, I think we can still defend against it, because our Lingyun Pavilion's 800,000 army is all monks who can be a hundred."

"However, Wu Changkong can't only have an army of five million, he is just an advance force, followed by tens of millions of demon realm troops, if I guess correctly, he is already about to merge with Wu Changkong."

"There are tens of millions of demon realm troops, and there must be elites coming, which is the most headache."

Baili Kazufeng nodded and said:

"Yes, their army should have arrived, and our army has not yet arrived, even the closest Liutingfeng army will still have three days to arrive, can we still hold it for three days?"

Jun Mo replied with a smile:

"Liu Tingfeng has four and a half million troops, if there are only five million troops of Wu Changkong, we can defeat them, if the army of the Demon Realm has merged with Wu Changkong, then our army strength is still insufficient."

After a pause, Jun Moxiao then asked:

"What time do they attack every day?"

The Tiger King, who had been standing on the side without speaking, replied casually:

"They started attacking in the morning every day, and they continued to fight until the evening before they withdrew their troops, and today because Generalissimo Jun led the army to support, they will retreat relatively early."

Jun Moxiao thought for a long time before asking:

"Will they choose to carry out a sneak attack at night today?"
