Chapter 212: The trump card of the demon-barbarian coalition!(1/2)
Unlike the two front lines of defense, the number of positions on the third line of defense has been greatly weakened.
In total, all the strongholds of the third line of defense are only fifteen.
The decrease in the number of strongholds means that the cultivators can concentrate more cultivators.
Take the Shuanghu Mountain stronghold where Wang Cheng and Qingyunmen are located as an example. When the real war came, the total number of cultivators gathered here had reached more than 770, almost twice that of the Tiexin Mountain position where he participated first.
Moreover, these 770 and the people were all concentrated in a large formation, without any positions.
At this moment, the number of monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage at the Shuanghu Mountain stronghold reached 87!
So many foundation-building cultivators, as well as many Qi-refining cultivators, and the mountain protection formation that has been transformed into a chain array.
Even if a real Jindan stage monk comes to attack, he will never want to build this stronghold with his own strength.
The stronghold where heavy troops gathered in this way must at least have the Golden Pill stage cultivation level to serve as the commander-in-chief of the stronghold.
But now Longshan Academy has summoned all the Jindan stage cultivators together to fight with the third-level existence in the Demon Barbarian Alliance.
This is why Zhang Qi, an inner disciple of the Longshan Academy, was given the opportunity to command so many cultivators to fight during the foundation-building stage.
If they cannot successfully form a pill in the future, this experience will probably be the most brilliant experience in their lives and will be difficult to have in the future.
When the demon barbarian coalition appeared outside the Shuanghu Mountain stronghold, Zhang Qi, who was commanding such a large-scale battle for the first time, quickly called Wang Cheng, some late-stage foundation-building cultivators in the stronghold, as well as the heads of various sects, and discussed countermeasures.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, you have made many achievements in the two previous stronghold guard battles and are experienced. In your opinion, how should we fight this battle?"
Out of appreciation and trust for Wang Cheng, Zhang Qi bypassed the digital late-stage monks present and directly asked Wang Cheng's opinion.
To be honest, Wang Cheng really doesn't want to endure his kindness.
These days, Wang Cheng and Qingyun Sect have already made enough limelight.
As a person who has been brought out to establish a typical example, the third line of defense is afraid that there are no monks who don’t know his name and the name of Qingyun Sect.
In this case, it would be best for him and Qingyun Sect to wait quietly for the limelight to pass, and not make any trouble at this moment, so as not to be attacked.
People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Celebrities cannot have any stains. Any stain that may be normal for ordinary people will be infinitely magnified once they appear on celebrities.
For example, the simplest swearing.
Who doesn’t swear by ordinary people?
However, once a celebrity swears, he will most likely be labeled as a low-quality person and is said to be uneducated.
Wang Cheng believed that if he expressed his opinion now, he would probably only get a few compliments if he said it well.
But if you don’t say it well and you get caught and fight back, you won’t be able to get rid of it with a few ridicule.
So when Zhang Qi asked about it, he was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang really asked Wang. The two wars that Wang participated in before were all commanded by fellow Taoist Wang Xiu. Wang just obeyed the orders, and he never thought about how to command the battle!"
This answer made Zhang Qi stunned, and he never expected Wang Cheng to answer like this.
However, he was also a smart person. At this time, he looked around the monks with different faces around him and almost understood what Wang Cheng was concerned about.
Therefore, he showed an apology to Wang Cheng, and then yelled casually: "Haha, it doesn't matter. Zhang just asked casually. In fact, how to fight this battle? The uncles of our sect have already given orders. Let's follow the orders."
After saying that, he simply didn't ask the others' opinions. He just read the orders passed down from above again, and ordered everyone to stick to their positions according to the plan and use the formation to destroy the spirit and strength of the demon barbarian coalition.
The war began soon.
The 50,000 or 60,000 demon barbarians gathered outside the Shuanghu Mountain position soon launched a fierce attack on the Lingshan Mountain.
Most of these demon and barbarian coalition forces at this time were veterans who survived the previous wars.
They performed much better than the previous wars.
Especially those second-level monsters, they began to know how to cover up the first-level monsters that they had never looked down upon before.
Even some smarter species will command the same race to conduct coordinated operations.
This is true for monsters, not to mention those barbarian warlocks.
Originally, barbarian sorcerers were wise among barbarians, and their wisdom was no less than that of cultivators.
It’s just that the barbarians’ unique method of tribal inheritance prevents them from establishing advanced barbarian civilization and learning knowledge beyond tribal inheritance.
But in the same way, the knowledge they have mastered is the experience and knowledge accumulated by the bloody and tears of the barbarians.
This kind of empirical knowledge is much more impressive than the knowledge that cultivators see from books and will never be remembered forever.
In the previous few battles, these barbarian warlocks have learned experience from countless dead monsters. They know how to do when attacking the cultivator's formation to maximize their lives and know how to do it to cause maximum damage to the formation.
In the current battle between Shuanghushan, they have fully utilized these experiences.
Although Wang Cheng discovered this, he had no good opinions to put forward.
After all, sometimes, shortcomings are shortcomings, and it is impossible for all shortcomings to be compensated for.
In other words, if you want to make your strength stronger, you have to endure its shortcomings.
Moreover, even if the demon man has experience, he can know how to protect himself better than the war at the beginning, and he will die if he deserves it.
It’s like no matter how hard an army can attack, it still has to use its life to break through some commanding heights in the battle.
The Shuanghu Mountain position is now a strong city, with sufficient guards and complete food and grass. It can be said that the army is full of strength and food.
It is impossible for the demon army to eat it in one breath.
This must be a long-term war.
For Wang Cheng and most monks, this is an excellent opportunity to make merit before the formation is broken.
They throw away spells one by one, even if many of them are used to intercept the attacks of second-level monsters, they will always have the chance to kill some first-level monsters.
Moreover, because of the sufficient manpower, they can even rotate the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage this time. After one group of people is almost exhausted, another group of people will come up.
In this way, the position of Shuanghu Mountain was as stable as Mount Tai, without any sign of being unable to support it.
If this continues, it will not seem like a big problem if you support it for another half a month.
After all, the demon man died a lot every day, which means that their attack strength will drop a little every day, and the more they go, the less power they become.
But is the situation really that simple?
There are also many knowledgeable people among the demons and barbarians. Will they not be able to see this?
Of course not!
In order to win this war, they also prepared their trump card!
Therefore, when the war in Shuanghu Mountain lasted until the ninth day, the killer weapon of the demon barbarian coalition appeared.
Buzzing!
I don’t know when, countless red locusts suddenly gathered outside Shuanghu Mountain.
Each of these locusts is as big as an adult fist, and is all first-level monster insects, with a population of hundreds of thousands!
They formed a red insect cloud that covered the sky and the sun, and soon came to the sky above the mountain protection formation in Shuanghu Mountain, and then covered the mountain protection formation like a black cloud covering the top of the mountain protection formation.
This scene shocked all the cultivators on Shuanghu Mountain at that time.
It was not until the insect cloud formed by the red locust was less than a hundred feet away from the mountain protection formation that Zhang Qi, the commander-in-chief, came to his senses and then roared wildly: "Let's kill these demon insects together, and you must not let them fall on the mountain protection formation!"
Although until now, everyone still doesn't know what the functions of these red locusts are.
But you can know with your butt that the demon barbarian coalition has always hidden this killer weapon and has not been used until now. It must have extraordinary confidence in it.
During the war, the enemy must not let them do what they want to do. This is the simplest truth.
But it's too late!
The number of red locusts is too large and appears very quickly.
Even if all the monks on Shuanghu Mountain took action together, they would have only eliminated one or two dozen of the insect clouds in a hurry.
When these demon insects actually landed on the mountain protection formation, they all exploded.
The self-destruction of a demon insect is probably so powerful that even a cultivator in the early stage of Qi refining will be difficult to hurt.
But when hundreds of thousands of demon insects exploded themselves together, the power was much stronger than that of ordinary third-level spells.
At that moment, the entire sky above Shuanghu Mountain was filled with explosion fire, and the red flames swallowed the entire Lingshan Mountain.
The self-destruction of those red locusts not only produced a chain reaction, forming a great explosion power, but also became a combustion aid, further enhancing its power.
The chain formations that stood firm after nine days of attack by the demon barbarian coalition forces on Shuanghu Mountain exploded directly under this wave of attacks!
Fortunately, what is different from the previous defense line is that the formation of Shuanghu Mountain does not directly connect with the spiritual veins and the earth veins. Even if the formation is broken, it will not cause too much damage to the mountain.
However, without the mountain protection formation as a support, the demon barbarian coalition forces with more than 20,000 left outside can drive straight in.
Ao Woo!!!
roar!!!
The roars and roars of various monsters resounded throughout the wilderness. All monsters were now roaring wildly with blood red eyes, and rushed towards Shuanghu Mountain, which had lost its mountain protection formation.
They have shed too much blood these days and have suffered too much pain.
Now it is time to make those cultivators bleed and pay the price!
"Hurry, hurry up, everyone form a formation to protect themselves. Never be dispersed, otherwise they will die!"
