Six years after the end of the world, it was early morning on January 8th.
This is destined to be another time that will be remembered in the history of the new world.
Accompanied by the slightly cold morning breeze, the 140,000-strong army of the Fallen Star Sect completed its assembly from the camp ten miles away, and marched to the outermost perimeter of the Savior Guild's defense line with an overwhelming momentum.
Any professional standing on the defensive line on the outskirts of Shu County can easily see the endless black crowd and the tremors on the ground caused by the army's uniform march.
Apart from the dull footsteps, the followers of the Fallen Star Sect remained dull and did not shout any slogans.
But the more cold and silent the army is, the stronger the shock and impact will be.
Fortunately, in order to boost the morale of the troops and get a good start, the sixteen battle groups scheduled for the first battle today are all carefully selected elites.
More than two-thirds of the professionals have experience fighting against Fallen Star believers, and more than half of them have fought in the Battle of Yanjing.
With such a foundation and experience, facing the power of 140,000 enemy troops, the professionals who were well prepared on the defensive line only showed a little commotion, but they did not panic or even be timid before fighting.
"Woo" The loud and distant sound of the trumpet spread across the battlefield, and the 140,000-strong army gradually stopped one kilometer away from the defense line and began to make arrangements.
Since too many troops were invested in this battle, just one line of defense was simply not enough to accommodate so many people.
The senior leaders of the Fallen Star Sect knew very well that if they attacked only one front, this massive war would take who knows how long to end.
And if the time drags on for too long, it is obviously not a good thing for them who have come from afar.
Therefore, we must divide our forces and conduct a multi-line siege.
If we follow the conventional routines of the earth's old civilization, siege warfare must take into account both the attack and the heart, which is usually to surround three and miss one.
But the Fallen Star Sect obviously did not dare to divide its troops into three equal parts, as that would be too scattered.
The Savior Guild can gather a small number of top powerhouses in one direction, and immediately activate the scroll of return to the city after a sudden attack.
Maybe once or twice is not enough to affect the situation of the battle, but if it happens a few more times, the accumulated losses will be very considerable.
The commanding minds of the Fallen Star Sect were obviously very clear, and they chose to divide their forces into two groups.
In this way, with an army of 70,000 on each side, the numerical advantage of the diamond-level warriors can be guaranteed.
Even after the troops are divided, they will still be worthy in any direction.
If the human warriors really dare to gather forces on a certain line of defense to take the initiative. , then the strong men from the other direction can change the situation of the battle in an instant, whether they attack the city directly or provide reinforcements from behind.
However, contrary to the expectations of many human professionals, these two armies of fallen stars did not attack the east and south defense lines of the Savior Guild.
Instead, after the division of troops was completed, they deliberately circled half of the city and stationed themselves on the outskirts of the city in the west and north directions of Shu County.
Here, the Fallen Star Sect played a little trick: they came from the southeast and were marching very fast.
If human professionals were not fully prepared in advance, they would probably not have time to reinforce the defense lines in all four directions to the same extent.
In this way, the most likely thing to do is to selectively focus on strengthening the eastern and southern defense lines.
Based on this, they will attack in the other two directions.
If you guess correctly, the Fallen Star Sect has directly selected the weak point of human defense.
Even if they didn't guess correctly, the strength of the four lines of human defense was basically the same, so they didn't lose anything, they just traveled an extra distance.
"These cultists are really cunning."
Looking at the black crowd in the distance who were gradually completing their preparations, the senior officials of the joint command who boarded the defense line to observe the military situation could not help but comment or curse.
Fortunately, Boss Fang Jin had made preparations early and strengthened the defense lines in all directions to the extreme, even to the extent that it greatly exceeded the original Yanjing defense line.
Such thorough preparation prevented these Fallen Star believers from succeeding.
"Tell me, which of these two directions is the enemy's main attack direction?"
Putting down the high-powered telescope in his hand, Fang Yuanshan, the president of Tianshui Guild, looked at the others around him.
Judging from the number of holy symbols and flags of the Fallen Star Sect that he observed, a large number of elites from the Fallen Star Sect were gathered in front of the northern defense line where they were located, and at least two people suspected of being cardinals even came out to lecture.
Perhaps, the Fallen Star Sect wanted to attack mainly on this line of defense, while the west side was just a feint attack and containment.
"It's really hard to say."
Wang Jueping shook his head repeatedly and said: "The holy emblem and flags in front of me may be just the formation of the Fallen Star Sect to spread suspicion, and the real main attack may be on the west side.
Or maybe the two lines of defense are the main attack.
Virtual and real, Who can say for sure, let alone” His eyes were deep and full of meaning.
The top experts present are all qualified to know the matters related to the Xuantai Guild.
After being reminded by Wang Jueping, many people immediately thought of the possible backhand that the Fallen Star Sect could use.
Maybe, the current two lines of defense are just a cover-up to confuse their ears and eyes.

"You really can't be careless at all."
One of the experts frowned and sighed depressingly.
While they were communicating, the Fallen Star Sect outside the distant defense line had officially completed all deployments and began its first tentative attacks.
A large number of mages with summoning skills were gathered together, and in front of the formation, they summoned a total of no less than thousands of various summoned creatures: elemental ones, undead ones, ordinary warcraft, and plant-type trees. , and even void creatures, it can be said that there are all kinds of strange things.
These creatures that were supposed to be hostile to each other, under the strong restraint of their respective summoners, were forcibly crushed into a cannon fodder army with no sense of coordination at all, and were sent out to start "charge the battle" A large number of traps, some trenches and elemental bombs buried on the outermost perimeter were quickly detonated by these summoned creatures.
This has disappointed many professionals who had previously placed certain expectations on them, but there is nothing they can do about it.
The Fallen Star Sect is not a fool.
How could they only allow them to dig holes and not allow others to fill them?
However, Fang Jin was obviously prepared for this method.
He didn't even need to personally give orders.
The frontline commanders who had already made plans to choose quickly dispatched a group of sharpshooters with the longest range to attack the summoned creatures sent to "thunder" from a distance of more than a mile.
Conduct indiscriminate coverage strikes.
The Fallen Star Cult reacted equally quickly.
Seeing that the first batch of summoned units were almost dead, they quickly started the second wave of summons.
In the end, the magic traps on the outermost sides of the two defense lines achieved the result of delaying the Fallen Star Sect for half a day, and were soon filled with a long gap by countless summoned creatures who did not know what death was.
The real siege battle officially begins from this moment.
On both fronts, the Fallen Star Sect each dispatched 10,000 troops.
Under the cover of dozens of gold-level priests and at least two archbishops, they launched an astonishing onslaught against the Savior Guild.
This is the final battle to end the apocalypse:
