Chapter 1406 Never Give Up

After Ji Tianxing returned to the human race's camp, he entered a hidden secret room, and went to heal his injuries.

In a short while, more than two million soldiers of the human race who were scarred and bruised also returned to the various camps to rest and heal their injuries intensively.

The emperor and several commanders also suffered serious injuries.

But they can't retreat to heal their wounds, they must properly arrange the wounded soldiers and the aftermath.

Everyone was holding on to their injuries, and they were still busy in the camp, giving various orders.

Long Yunxiao and hundreds of thousands of soldiers guarded Tianlong Pass without daring to let go.

The last person to withdraw from Tianlongguan is of course the emperor.

At the time of the expedition, the emperor's demeanor was solemn, sacred and majestic.

But when he retreated to Tianlongguan, his hair was disheveled, his body was covered in blood, and the purple gold dragon crown on his head was gone.

Fortunately, he was strong enough, but suffered some minor injuries.

After returning to the human camp, he sat in the commander's palace and called several commanders to discuss military affairs.

In the bright and tidy conference hall, the emperor, who was dressed in a clean dragon robe, sat at the head.

The emperor also changed his clothes, tidied up his appearance, and stood next to the throne with his whisk in his hands.

But his eyes were a little dim, his complexion was as pale as paper, and his spiritual aura was much weaker. It was obvious that he was seriously injured.

On both sides of the main hall, there are six commanders standing respectively.

Except for Long Yunxiao, Sifang God General and Yun Zhongqi were all wounded and looked ugly.

An invisible heavy atmosphere enveloped the entire hall, making everyone feel sad and tragic.

Everyone was silent, no one spoke.

After a long time, the emperor raised his head to look at the crowd, and asked in a low voice: "Everyone has counted the number of casualties, please report quickly."

His voice was dry and hoarse, and his tone was filled with deep tiredness and helplessness.

The commanders hesitated for a moment, and then reported one by one: "I want to report to the emperor, the battalion led by my subordinates has killed 530,000 people, seriously injured 160,000 people, and lightly injured 50,000 people..."

"Reporting to the emperor, the Donglin Camp under his command has 480,000 dead, 120,000 seriously injured, and 80,000 lightly injured..."

"Northern border camp, 560,000 dead, 180,000 seriously injured, 30,000 slightly injured..."

One shocking number after another was reported by the commanders.

Behind every number, there are tragic scenes of fierce fighting, rivers of blood and mountains of bones.

After a while, the commanders finished their reports.

The emperor made a summary and reported to the emperor: "To the emperor, in this war, our family sent a total of 6.3 million troops, led by seven commanders.

Today, there are only more than 2.8 million soldiers who have successfully withdrawn from Tianlong Pass.

Three and a half million soldiers died outside Tianlong Pass, including two commanders, Prince Yi and Prince Xiao..."

The Emperor Master's words made everyone silent, and they lowered their heads in great pain.

Dijun's expression was also very ugly, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his pupils were full of worry and despair.

It took him a long time before he opened his mouth, and said in a low and angry voice: "The 3.5 million troops were all killed overnight!

Our clan originally only had more than 7 million soldiers, barely able to defend Tianlong Pass and face off against the demon army for a month.

Now that the casualties are so heavy, most of the remaining 2.8 million soldiers are injured, and it is difficult to participate in the war in the short term.

This Tianlong Pass... is bound to be unable to hold on, our family's general situation is over! "

At the end, Dijun's tone was extremely painful, and he sighed in despair.

The commanders felt extremely sad when they heard this, they clenched their fists secretly, their nails pierced the palms of their hands, and they didn't notice it.

The emperor shook his head slightly, showing a wry smile, and said in a tone of self-blame: "It's all my fault, knowing that the demons are powerful, but still taking a chance, ordered the initiative to attack.

If it wasn't for this Emperor's greed for merit, how could he have made such a big mistake?

Three and a half million soldiers died on the battlefield, Tianlongguan is about to fall, and the demon army will soon move south and step into the land of Zhongzhou!

All of this is due to a decision of this emperor, a decree..."

Hearing Dijun's words full of remorse and self-blame, the emperor's teacher and all the commanders were full of worry, and quickly spoke to persuade them.

"Dijun, you must not think like this, this is definitely not your fault!"

"At the beginning, it was the commanders who made the suggestion, and the two princes strongly insisted on taking the initiative to attack. You, the emperor, also gave careful consideration and asked everyone to vote before issuing the order.

This was decided by all of us through discussion, not by you arbitrarily, so don't blame yourself for it! "

"Emperor, the two princes have already repented and sacrificed their lives to cover the retreat of our army to Tianlong Pass.

Now that our soldiers have suffered heavy casualties and their morale is low, what you have to do is to inspire everyone and set an example..."

Everyone persuaded them one after another, and they were very worried that the emperor would choose to give up resistance because of his pessimistic mood.

The emperor raised his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said solemnly: "You don't have to worry, although the emperor is in a heavy heart, annoyed and remorseful, but the emperor will never give up lightly!

No matter how dangerous the situation is and how difficult our situation is, this emperor will never give up.

No matter what, this emperor will persevere until the end, and swear to protect the people of the human race to the death! "

The emperor and several commanders finally felt relieved and hurriedly reported the situation of their camps.

The emperor listened carefully to the news reported by several commanders, and after thinking about it for a while, he gave orders one by one.

"There was a great battle just last night, our soldiers suffered heavy casualties, their morale must have been low, and there would even be an atmosphere of pessimism and despair, affecting the morale of the army.

All commanders, do your best to appease the wounded and stabilize the morale of the army.

The ancient god formation at Tianlongguan can last for nine days, we must be more careful and guard against the attack of the demon army..."

Several commanders nodded repeatedly to express their obedience.

The emperor thought about it, and said to the emperor teacher: "It is absolutely impossible to defend Tianlong pass with only two million soldiers.

Emperor teacher, immediately draw up an imperial decree for the emperor, send an order to the nine regions in the south, and recruit the defenders from each region to rush to Zhongzhou to help in the battle!

In addition, offer high commissions for resources, attract folk masters and powerful people to join, and cooperate with our army to protect Zhongzhou! "

When the commanders heard this, they immediately felt that this was a good idea.

But the emperor frowned, and said worriedly: "Emperor, there is still Nine Heavens Ancient God Formation that will be closed, even if the order is sent to the Southern Nine Regions, it will be too late!"

The emperor looked at the sky outside the hall with deep eyes, and said in a low tone: "When the reinforcements from the south arrive, Tianlong Pass has long been lost, and the demon army has already entered Zhongzhou.

The emperor mobilized reinforcements from the south for the final battle in a few months. "

The emperor and several commanders were silent for a moment.

After about an hour, the emperor and the commanders finished their discussions.

Several commanders left the hall one after another, returned to their respective camps, and went to appease the wounded.
