"Will the Broken Star Palace personally take a shot as well? If they do, wouldn’t we be unable to use Black Tortoise and the others?" Tang Nazhi was completely dumbfounded. The Broken Star Palace had a special method to handle magical beasts. If the Broken Star Palace themselves were to also attack, then they simply could not fight with their Mythological Beasts!
Shen Yanxiao shook her head.
"Since they made the alliance of the four countries to undertake this task, it should be that they themselves do not intend to attack. Even if they were to take action, it would be later.”
"Eh, then how should we guard against them when the time comes?" Tang Nazhi asked.
Qi Xia replied, "We don’t need to. At that time, it will be a big chaotic warfare between millions of people. It is basically impossible for them to take actions against Black Tortoise and the others, so don't worry."
Regardless of the Broken Star Palace’s method of dealing with magical beasts, it would certainly take a lot of preparation to complete. With millions of people engaged in a chaotic battle, they would not have so much time and space to prepare it. Therefore, they did not have to worry about this.
"But for safety’s sake, try not to let Black Tortoise and the rest attack the enemy's rear." Qi Xia added another sentence.
Nangong Mengmeng sat at one side, quietly listening to the discussion of Phantom, and her heart could not help but hang in her throat. The crisis this time was too great for Shen Yanxiao. Nangong Mengmeng was very worried that Shen Yanxiao would not be able to cope with this problem.
"Mengmeng, do you know when they will arrive at the Barren Land?" Shen Yanxiao asked.
Nangong Mengmeng answered, "The Holy Sage speculated that it will be after thirteen days."
Thirteen days.
They only had thirteen days to prepare.
Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes. Their time was tight.
"Little Xiao, how are you going to arrange things?" Qi Xia asked.
Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath and responded, "First of all, investigate and find out which outermost city they are preparing to attack first. Yang Xi, you should focus on gathering all the armaments you have in the meantime. Once we are clear about their movements, immediately transport any materials over. Have all the demons temporarily put down their work for now, and station all of them in the several outermost cities. Once they discover the alliance of the four countries, they are to immediately ignite smoke signals to indicate the presence of the enemies, then all the demons in the nearby cities will assemble."
The decision of Shen Yanxiao made Qi Xia quite surprised.
"You intend to begin defending from the outermost cities?" This was definitely a very bold idea. According to the current situation, staying in the main cities would be the best way, but Shen Yanxiao intended to start from the outermost city, which was much more difficult.
"Fight and retreat. Let Du Lang and others transfer all the people in the outermost cities to the main cities in this time. The loss of the merchants during this war will be compensated after the war. What I want is to use every city to consume their forces. Every time they take down a city, I want them to pay the price with blood. They just have to be stationed on the wall, attack them with artillery, and retreat if they can't defend the city. Leave no one in the city, and don’t take any direct confrontation with the alliance of the four countries. I’d like to see how many people they have to sacrifice in order to get to the main city, The Rising Sun City!" Shen Yanxiao smiled coldly. She would not disperse her force, but would not submissively hand over her other cities either.
If they wanted to take her city, they would have to leave tens of thousands of lives for her first!
She would like to see, with more than fifty cities, how long the battle line of the four-nation alliance could last!
"So ferocious!" Tang Nazhi looked at Shen Yanxiao. He reckoned that only Shen Yanxiao could think of this method. Without a frontal battle, there would be no casualties. With the artillery directly attacking the enemies, if the four countries wanted to enter the city, they must attack the city first. Otherwise, if they only stared at the artillery while forcibly entering the city, the deaths and injuries on their side would not be small.
