Han Yi left with the Guardian Pioneer Army, but Kitano was actually clear, but he didn't choose to let people chase after him.
Although he was shocked and even unbelievable when he learned the news of the independence of the Protector, he did not choose to take action against the Guardian Vanguard, even though he knew that they were now rebels.
Because Kitano looked at the problem from a different height than the people below, he thought about how the vanguard should deal with itself like Han Yi.
If the Vanguard chooses to retreat, then he will not hesitate to choose to annihilate them, and will never allow them to return to join the Protectors.
But they chose to continue to move forward and enter the Western Continent, then everything was different, because it was impossible for the alien beast country to accept the surrender of the human race, and at the same time, he firmly believed that even if he chose to rebel, the Dao Protector Army would definitely not turn his back on the race and choose to be with the alien beasts.
In the dead of night, only the crackling of the campfire and the howling of the wind echoing through the canyon were heard.
At this time, several dirt bags suddenly bulged up at the edge of the canyon, and then a group of strange beasts crawled out of the pit and began to rush towards the camp of the Earth-Shaking Army.
At this moment, the soldier on the tower in charge of the lookout suddenly turned his head to the area shrouded in darkness, because there seemed to be the slight movement of objects passing through the grass.
Without hesitation, he immediately bent down and drew his arrow, put the whistling arrow on his bow, and shot it at another lookout point.
The arrow of this herald arrow is a kind of groove in the middle, similar to the pattern of whistle remodeling, when the arrow is shot, breaking the wind at the same time, as if someone is whistling, will make a rapid whistle, it is developed in the dawn army, and later spread throughout the army.
"Chirp~!"
A crisp whistling sound sounded, and several soldiers in the watchtower in the distance immediately looked up at this place.
The lookout here immediately made several gestures in succession, and the soldiers immediately saw this, and hurriedly pulled out a special white arrow, and then lit the arrow with a kerosene lamp, and after pulling the string, it shot towards the darkness in the distance at the same time.
The rocket streaked through the air in an arc of half-moons, constantly illuminating things in front of it.
When they saw the dense beasts appearing from a distance, these lookout soldiers were all shocked, and then at the same time pulled the alarm bell on the watchtower.
The specially made alarm bell seemed small, but it was loud and began to reverberate around the camp.
When the sound was transmitted to the watchtower in the distance, the soldiers over there also sounded the alarm bell without hesitation, and a moment later, the sound of the alarm bell echoed over the entire earth-shaking military camp.
The sudden alarm woke up the Earth-Shaking soldiers who were in their slumber, and everyone quickly opened their eyes from their sleep, quickly got up and began to dress.
In less than a minute, people began to come out of their tents and assemble outside.
One of the things in the training of war in peacetime is about how to organize personnel to counterattack in a short period of time when the enemy suddenly attacks our army, so the reaction speed of the earth-shaking army is extremely fast, and it quickly generates a living force.
Several generals also came out of their tents and began to inquire about the situation.
The first lookout soldier to have the appearance of the strange beast had already conveyed the situation, and the herald immediately reported the news, and then the entire army of the Earthshaking Army entered a state of combat readiness.
The direction of this strange beast's surprise attack came from all directions, and it was still from underground, obviously premeditated, it was not that they did not occupy the canyon, but they had already occupied the canyon, but they chose to hide underground and wait for the opportunity to move.
Faced with this situation, the earth-shaking soldiers divided into four routes, each choosing a direction to start advancing.
"Squeak~" Seeing the fire in the Earth-shaking military camp lit up, the alien beast that had been quietly advancing seemed to have received some order and began to rush towards the Earth-shaking military camp frantically.
After a day's hard work, preliminary defenses had been erected around the Shaking Barracks.
However, several earth-shaking generals did not plan to use the defensive works, because they were too fragile at this stage, could be easily damaged, and were not very lethal, so they decided to go out of the camp to fight.
The surprise attack of the alien beast can be said to be very fast, and if it is encountered by an ordinary army, it will definitely be taken by surprise.
However, in the face of the well-trained Earthshakers, their plans for a surprise attack fell through, and a head-to-head confrontation took place here.
The shouts of slaughter echoed over the canyon, and the collision between the alien beast and the earth-shaking warrior did not appear to be evenly matched, but a one-sided slaughter.
The four square battle formations formed by the soldiers of the Earth-Shaking Army were like four millstones, constantly crushing forward, and a large number of strange beasts were caught in them, and then they were slashed and killed by random knives.
In this wave of raids, the biggest weakness of the alien beasts lies in the connection in numbers.
Because it appeared from the pits around the canyon and chose to attack before it could assemble, it caused the strange beast to fail seriously in this raid, and the follow-up support could not keep up with the strange beast warriors in front of it.
When a large number of alien beasts were rushed and killed, the rout of the alien beasts in this raid was even more obvious.
Perhaps the Alien Beast Legion didn't expect that what they had to face was the combat power of the entire army of the Earth-Shaking Army, one of the four pillars of the Open Heaven, and when the signs of rout appeared, they were unstoppable, and the four battle formations continued to crush forward, and they went straight to the mouth of the pit on both sides of the canyon.
"Shake the ground!"
At this moment, Kitano's voice suddenly came from the center of the barracks.
"Whew!"
All the earth-shaking soldiers roared, then raised their right foot and stomped on the ground.
"Boom!"
At this moment, the earth was really shaken, the canyon shook the mountains, and the rocks continued to slide from the canyon.
This blow all the earth-shaking soldiers condensed their spiritual energy in the soles of their feet, and then pressed heavily into the ground.
In an instant, all the strange beasts that had not yet appeared in the ground were torn apart, and the tunnel dug by the king beast all collapsed and was buried.
Faced with such a situation, the king beast hiding underground was also frightened.
Although it was deep underground, this blow also hurt him, and in the face of this situation, the king beast began to dig into the ground and run into the distance, facing such a powerful earth-shaking army, it had completely lost the desire to continue fighting.

But at this moment, a long cyan mang rose from the self-shaking military camp, and when it rose to more than five zhang long, it broke through the ground and slashed towards the running king beast.
This blow was menacing, even if the king beast had discovered the existence of this blow through its hearing, there was still no way to escape.
Faced with this blow, the king beast immediately turned around and resisted.
When the green mang swept by, its upper body and lower body slowly separated, and then died.
This battle came and ended quickly, in the face of such a powerful earth-shaking army, this wave of beast raids did not have the expected effect at all, but were all killed, which greatly boosted the morale of the officers and men of the earth-shaking army.
After the battle, the carcasses of all the beasts were dragged to the edge of the canyon and burned, while Kitano ordered the construction of underground defenses.
This kind of underground defense is composed of a row of wooden stakes, after driving them into the ground, there are special ropes between each other, implicated, as long as one of the wooden stakes is damaged, the bell on the exposed wooden stakes will ring, can effectively prevent large-scale underground attack.
This kind of underground defense project is not a difficult task for the Earth-shaking Army, but it is only one of the basic defense constructions.
Since the herald has already gone to the territory of the Earth-shaking Army to convey the notice of material delivery, a large number of strategic materials are still on the way, otherwise, there are more defensive facilities that can be built, which will greatly consolidate the defense of the Earth-shaking Army in the canyon.
At this stage, it is mainly development and consolidation, and as long as the other three major legions have not arrived, Kitano will not recklessly send troops to attack.
Although the specific strength of the Alien Beast Realm is very vague, it can be deduced from all the information they have obtained that this Alien Beast Realm is definitely not weak.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to annex all the creatures of the Western Continent and establish a supreme and unique special existence like the Open Heaven Kingdom.
So Kitano knew that this time he really had to wait.
The original plan of the Western Expedition was that Shi Jingtian chose to be independent and behind the enemy of Kaitian, but it was full of unknowns.
At the same time, Beiye also had a guess in his heart, maybe this Western Expedition would be stillborn after the stone shocking independence action, and then it would not be the other two major armies to come to support, but to ask him to go back to encircle and suppress the Protector Army.
Of course, all this was just Kitano's speculation, because he never felt that Shi Jingtian was a reckless person.
After hearing the news of the independence of the Protector Army, Kitano's first thought was that this could be a plan that several generations of Protector generals had already planned, and then passed it on from generation to generation, and when they arrived here in Shi Jingtian, the Western Expedition War just happened, and Shi Jingtian just grasped this node.
On the night when the Earth-shaking Army was building a defense project overnight, the Guardian Pioneer Army led by Han Yi rushed out of the canyon.
Facing the vast night, Han Yi immediately ordered the whole army to extinguish the torches, and then chose to rest on the left side near the mouth of the canyon.
The so-called combat readiness rest refers to not taking off armor and battle clothes, not leaving weapons, not setting up tents, and maintaining a state that can cope with sudden battles at any time.
The soldiers of the Guardian Army rested against the rock wall on the side of the canyon, which also had the advantage that at least the rear could not be suddenly attacked, as long as they dealt with the battle coming from the front.
Since it was night, Han Yi didn't plan to let the Guardian Vanguard continue to advance, after all, the night was always full of many unknown factors.
If you advance with a torch, it will be too conspicuous, and it will be easy for the existence of the alien beast army to be discovered, and a battle will take place.
Han Yi was not afraid of small-scale battles, and at the same time he had confidence in the soldiers of the Guardian Army, but if there were countless strange beasts in front of him who were ready to wait for an opportunity to move in the canyon, then Han Yi continued to move forward, undoubtedly hitting the muzzle of the gun.
Just now, Han Yi also heard the shouts of killing in the canyon, and understood that the Alien Beast Legion had already been ambushed in the canyon, planning to raid the Earth-Shaking Army.
Han Yi didn't know what the battle situation was, but he could probably guess some, after all, in a place as big as Liuyun Canyon, if the Earth-shaking Army couldn't even annihilate the ambush soldiers, then how could it be called the prestige of the four pillars of the Open Heaven.
The temperature difference between day and night in the western continent was obvious, and the cold wind at night swept over the soldiers of the vanguard army, and everyone gathered together, leaning on the rock wall, waiting for the dawn to come.
Fortunately, all the soldiers are spirit refiners, and they all have spiritual energy protection, although the temperature is low at night, it will not cause any major problems to them.
And Han Yi, Tie Ta and others also got together and began to discuss the next move.
At this stage, the situation of the vanguard army is actually very bad, not only Han Yi, but even Wang Dao is also clear.
There are three reasons for this.
The first point is that they have entered the Western Continent, which is the territory of the alien beasts, and they are wandering around, attracting the attention of the alien beast army, and with their 50,000 people, they are likely to be besieged and killed.
The second point is that the pace of the war seems to have slowed down, because the Guardian Army has defected, and the Earthshaking Army will not choose to start a war against the Western Continent alone, but will only temporarily adopt a defensive combat strategy, which is not good for the Guardian Vanguard Army outside the canyon.
The third and most important point is that they don't have food reserves and other materials, and they can't afford to spend them at all.
There are a large number of supplies in the rear of the earth-shaking army, and the troops continue to support the materials, but they don't have them, all they have is some dry food that they carry with them, and it is already the limit to last two days.
Faced with this situation, Han Yi could only find a way to find life in it.
In fact, Han Yi and Tie Ta can have a better choice, that is, to leave together, not to care about the life and death of these soldiers of the Guardian Pioneer Army, with their strength, walking in the Western Continent, as long as they are not surrounded and targeted by the king beast herd, there will be no death threat at all.
But since Shi Jingtian entrusted the vanguard army to him, then Han Yi would not choose to leave alone with the iron tower, because the Guardian Army was also Han Yi's army, and there were many soldiers here who were the descendants of his former subordinates.
Faced with such a crisis situation, Han Yi began to discuss with Tie Tower, Wang Dao and several others how to deal with it.
After another three hours of discussion, Han Yi finally decided that for the time being, the vanguard army would go all the way along the canyon mountain road and go to the left to look for supplies, but they could not go far, because they had to observe the battle situation and look for opportunities to turn back.
Originally, Wang Dao's proposal was to go straight out of the canyon, first find a place where there are supplies in the alien beast country, plunder a batch of supplies, and then find a safe place to station.
However, this proposal was vetoed by Han Yi.
The reason is very simple, the front is always the place where the troops are most concentrated during the battle, although it is not clear about the layout of the troops of the Alien Beast Country, but Han Yi knows that there are alien entrants, it is still too risky, he is responsible for the lives of the soldiers of the Guardian Army.
Just as the soldiers of the Guardian Pioneer Army were waiting for the dawn to come, an army of alien beasts led by a white elephant beast slowly approached the place where the canyon was located from the canyon mountain to the west.
They were agile, and the light in the bodies of the alien beasts behind the white elephant was more profound than those alien beasts that Han Yi had encountered before, and their body structures were more refined, obviously an elite force among the alien beasts.

And the white elephant in the lead is also obviously different from other king beasts, there is no obvious extracorporeal stone armor, not to mention, there is a long-handled sickle-shaped twisted weapon hanging on its back, and its own wrists and ankles are also covered with ring-shaped items of different colors, which looks completely different from the strange beast behind it.
If Han Yi and the Iron Tower were here, they would definitely recognize this person, because the sign of its entrant was too obvious.
The equipment they wore was completely a space-enhancing item, but it was slightly different in style from the weapons and equipment of their human entrants.
After a few moments, the alien beast force led by the alien entrant stopped its progress and began to rest in place.
One was below the canyon and the other above the canyon, and in the darkness of night, neither side found each other's presence, and they were all stationed in place to rest, waiting for the next day.
