Everyone in the war room has left, and only Monica, Shadow, and Hohenheim are left in the room.
Seeing Hohenheim's annoyance, Ying wanted to leave, but was stopped by him.
"Tell me about the beheading battle in detail."
Ying thought for a moment: "Okay." He sat on the chair and said: "Actually, we almost killed Zalbog tonight. When we led the Yinhuang Army over, the guards at their camp not only
It was completely inaccurate and underestimated the strength of the ten thousand Yinhuang army. Not long after the battle, the enemy army was already in chaos. The two generals Fann and Langya and I pursued and intercepted Zarberg several times, but we were all defeated.
The guards around him and the Black Feather Battalion stopped him. In the end, Langya and I had forced Zalberg into a desperate situation, but a group of very powerful people still emerged and rescued him."
Hohenheim said bitterly: "If I had known earlier, I would have sent two more people to go with you."
Monica said: "General Cheman, you don't have to blame yourself too much. The failure of the beheading battle has nothing to do with you. We don't have many defenders to begin with. In the battle tonight, the army has been damaged to this extent. Two more will be missing."
With people like Fann and Langya who can fight, the Royal Capital City will be in danger. Once there are not enough defenders in the Royal Capital City and Zalberg cannot take it down, the King and we will be completely finished."
"Yes, we can't take this risk." Hohenheim could only lament helplessly.
Monica stood up and said: "The fighting has stopped now. Cheman, you are seriously injured. You should take a good rest while you are being treated in the hospital. You have not slept much in the past few days. I will go to the hospital to see you."
To see my son, do you want to go with us?"
"You go first, I'll go after reading Vann's casualty report."
"I'm leaving."
Ying looked at the two of them and left. As he walked on the road, he recalled the previous beheading battle. In the war room just now, he did not say that he had every chance to kill Zalberg, but did not take action.
At that time, he was riding the Emperor Dragon and could burn Zalberg to death on the spot with a breath of dragon flame. Even if the bloodthirsty demon could block Zafino's dragon wrath, it would be difficult to protect Zalberg from being affected.
"He saved me, did he save me? When did it happen?" Ying was not a kind-hearted person, but Zalberg's words did make him confused. He thought in his heart: "If he
He didn't kill me before, which I can understand, but how could he save me? It's impossible for him to save me. Brother Rehog has been chasing me for so long. He knows my identity well and he didn't turn against me and kill me.
I should be trying to make use of my abilities, but there is no way he would save me because of this. It doesn’t make sense. And I have been in danger a few times recently. One time I almost died at the hands of Rehog’s brother.
After that, he was seriously injured and almost killed by a hired killer, and then when he was at the Tomb of the King of Heroes...could it be that time?" Ying was trembling in his heart, but his brows were furrowed again.
After thinking about it, Ying shook his head as he arrived at the door of the hospital: "No, there's no reason, it's illogical. Maybe he was delaying time on purpose, waiting for someone to save him. Oh, damn bastard, I
I fell into his trap and missed this good opportunity. I should have ignored him at that time and let Zafino spray him with dragon fire to kill him. Oh, forget it, don’t think about it, just thinking about it makes people angry
regret."
In the camp of a certain army in the southwest of the city, Zalberg was still in shock, thinking about the life-and-death moment just now. He had never felt that he was so close to death.
In the camp, only Ignatis, Apollo and a few others were present, while the officers were still busy preparing for the battle.
Ignatis said to Apollo: "Your Majesty, we are ordered by the throne to come here to help. If you need help, please just ask."
Apollo said to Zalberg: "Would you like to ask the medical staff to come over and take a look at you?"
Ignatis said: "I checked him on the way here and he was not hurt."
Zalberg, who had been in a daze, suddenly shouted angrily: "I should have killed him in the first place, Celeste Bingzhixie!!"
Apollo said: "I didn't kill him that time. Now that he has obtained Long Ling's power, it's not that easy to kill him again."
At this time, someone outside the tent shouted: "Report."
"Come in!" Tonight's encounter made Zalberg's tone less calm than usual.
An officer came in with a soldier.
"What's up?"
The officer said: "Prince, when we were searching the destroyed base camp just now, we found the body of your housekeeper outside the camp. This is his head. He has been cut into pieces."
The soldier handed the box containing the human head to the officer, who in turn handed it to the bloodthirsty demon.
"What? Ganata..."
The bloodthirsty demon opened the box, took a look and nodded, "It's Ganner."
The officer added: "There was a surviving soldier at the scene. He said that they were fleeing to the camp with your housekeeper and the women from the Prisoner's Gate, when they were suddenly intercepted by a white-haired boy riding a dragon. The Prisoner
The hostages at the gate were snatched away by him, and the rest were killed by his dragon."
"It's Bingzhixie again!" Zarberg punched the wooden box next to him. He took the box from the bloodthirsty demon, looked at the head in the box, and closed his eyes unbearably: "Oh
~! Ganner has been with me for decades, and he is the most familiar with me and my right-hand man. He just became a grandfather last month. He also said that when things here are over, he will go to see his grandson, okay?
I thought that my grandson died here before I even saw him. I was the one who hurt him." Zalberg was filled with grief and tears flowed down his face.
Everyone was silent. The most caring butler who had been with him for decades died suddenly. Who wouldn't be sad?
Ignatis glanced at the people around him and walked out of the tent.
Zarberg slowly closed the box, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "I want to bury his body in the royal capital myself. Lieutenant Colonel, what happened to the officials and ministers who followed me?"
The officer said: "There are many lost officials and ministers who have not been found yet. We are working hard to find them, but we have also found the bodies of some adults."
"Come on, take me to see you."
In an open space in the military camp, all the officials were placed here. They looked very embarrassed, some were crying loudly, and some had lingering fears.
Zalberg led people to the outskirts of the resettlement camp and frowned when he saw these conditions.
Someone next to him laughed and said: "Huh, these officials and ministers are usually better at talking than anyone else, but they just cry when something happens."
When the officials saw Zalberg coming, they stood up one after another.
"Prince." Panotta squeezed out from the crowd and followed Trossa.
Zalberg was overjoyed: "It's good that you two are fine. I heard that a lot of people died, so I'm afraid something will happen to you."
Panota said happily: "Thank you, Prince, for your concern."
Zalberg asked: "What's going on?"
Panota said: "These officials have never suffered much. They will get into chaos when encountering the smallest things. I have just calmed them down. When they finish venting and calm down, they will be fine."
"You are the most capable. I'm here to find you. Come, come and discuss things with me." Zalberg took them and left.
Arriving at a large house with a map and a sand table, Zalberg said to the guards in the room: "Go and call Raul, Bernstein, and Disman."
"yes."
A few minutes later, Raul and three others came in one after another.
Zalberg said directly: "Bernstein, first tell me about today's battle situation."
Bernstein said: "Let me put it simply, in tonight's attack, our attack on Nancheng achieved certain results. Although we failed to attack in the end, there were loopholes in their defense of Nancheng. I have observed the problems.
As for their senior officers and commanders, the large-scale attacks in the past three days have injured many of their general-level officers, and our repeated operations have made it impossible for their officers to cope. But today I
We have also seen some new faces in their army. They are not wearing armor with the imperial mark. They are probably civilians or mercenaries. As for the casualties of the army, they are still being counted, and the casualties are estimated to be very large."
"It is certain that there will be casualties when attacking the royal capital." Zalberg said: "What about you, Raul?"
Raul said: "I have calculated the situation here in the military camp. Including my army and the flanking troops guarding the base camp, a total of more than 14,000 people died."
Bernstein and Destin's expressions changed: "So many casualties? Their attack took place less than an hour ago."
Raul sighed: "This was my mistake. I didn't expect that the royal capital would be attacked so tightly. They dared to send heavy troops out of the city to attack our base camp. They were completely unprepared. And I didn't expect that their army would be so powerful.
, we have nearly 60,000 people, but we can't stop their attack of 10,000 people." After saying that, he went out and asked the soldiers to bring in two pairs of armors and swords. "Prince, you see, this is what I got from the Yinhuang Army who died in the battle.
With the weapons and equipment taken off, our soldiers' armor is like pieces of paper under this sword, but our swords can't hurt them."
He picked up the white nuclear crystal steel saber and slashed it on the ordinary armor. The armor was immediately split into a long crack. Then he pulled out his sword and slashed at the black nuclear crystal steel.
There was a clang on the armor, and the nuclear crystal steel armor showed no damage.
Bernstein was surprised and said: "This... this is too strong. Disman."
Disman said: "I have seen Galvas wearing this kind of equipment, but I have never tried it myself. I only heard that it was excellent, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful."
Zarberg said: "To be honest, I underestimated the damage caused by these equipment. Let's not talk about it for now. I called you here to discuss tomorrow's battle plan. Bloodthirsty Demon."
