After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 1486: The Attack of the White Demon
In the Panlong Desert of later generations, this thing was everywhere. Even when Sun Fuping and Nian Songyu went to the Panlong ruins, He Lingchuan summoned this thing to pull the desert ship.

But these three guys are really big, and the Earth Dragon King is no bigger than that. There is only one in the Panlong Desert in later generations.

But when he took a closer look, he still found something different. The bodies of these big guys were covered with dense scales, and they burrowed into the ground in spirals, just like drill bits.

Besides, this thing is not a living creature, but a mechanical puppet beast!

Xin Yi, who was standing nearby, took one look and said, "It's not an earth dragon, it's a spiral armored worm, a giant machine left over from the Middle Ages! It was used when Lingxu City attacked Yuan Kingdom, and it has the ability to burrow underground and drill into mountains!"

He Lingchuan quickly asked this Pepsi: "Do you have any other skills?"

"Are these two things not enough?" Xin Yi's voice was loud in the noisy battlefield. "Giant machines rarely have complex functions!"

It is already difficult to make it this big and still keep it functioning properly!

This is the spiral-armored worm that Lu Wushuang lent to Bai Moji.

Real earth dragon monsters are very dependent on the environment and cannot leave their native areas. Besides, it is difficult for the army to bring so many big guys on the road, so the mechanical puppet beast has the advantage. Like the golden armor general, it can shrink at ordinary times and is less than six feet long, which is convenient for transportation.

When they enlarged their bodies, they could dig holes more than ten feet wide on the ground and underground. Bai Moji placed them under another section of the river bank, allowing them to drill underground to the enemy's rear and dig out passages.

The Bega army passed through the passage of the spiral armored worms and emerged from behind the Yuheng City army!

Now, the army of Yuheng City was attacked from both sides.

In addition, the spiral armor worms dug holes everywhere on the shore, and the ground soaked by rain was already relatively soft, so soon there were many landslides, and the Yuheng army even found it difficult to maintain its formation!

Bega's army finally showed a "desperate" attitude.

Upon seeing this, He Lingchuan decisively ordered the entire army to retreat and retreat to the nearest auxiliary city!

The three-headed armored worms were a stroke of genius. The two sides had been fighting for more than 20 days, and the three-headed monster suddenly appeared, catching the Yuheng Army off guard. Now the enemy's attack was too fierce, and their morale was high, so he didn't need to use his own lives to fill the gap.

Since the war began, both sides have fought with all kinds of tactics. The Bega army led by Bai Moji finally broke through the enemy's riverside defense line after 27 days of fierce attack!

Seeing this, the Bega army cheered.

This step of victory is not easy.

Bai Moji breathed a sigh of relief, but there was no joy on his face. The cost of each of the three armored worms was several times higher than that of the Golden Armored God General, and it took three large pieces of light red black crystal to drive it... a cup of tea. This price made even Bai Moji feel terrified.

The war puppet, which is so expensive and consumes so much energy, can only dig holes, shake the ground and eat people, and has no other abilities. The cost-effectiveness is too low.

Of course, whether it is useful or not depends on the application scenario. This thing is professionally suitable for raiding cities.

Alas, this treasure should have been kept as a trump card for the sneak attack on Yuheng City. It is such a pity to sacrifice it in advance.

The army of Yuheng City is really troublesome.

He Lingchuan led his army to retreat to Beifu City, which was the second line of defense against the Beijia army. Bai Moji finally occupied the river bank and immediately ordered the establishment of a camp. As long as the Beijia army could take root here, they could seize food from the hinterland of the Maohe Plain.

With food, the Bega army was able to solve its urgent problem and implement its plan calmly.

Of course, as the commander, Bai Moji was well aware of the need to make a concerted effort. The Beiga army rushed towards Beifu City, closely following the Yuheng army.

Two of his aides advised him not to pursue the enemy, but he did not listen because this opportunity was so rare.

We have been working hard to attack for almost a month, aren’t we just waiting for this opportunity?
Sure enough, the Yuheng Army encountered several obstructions from the Xuanjia worms during their retreat, which disrupted their formation, slowed down their speed, and prevented them from returning to the city as scheduled.

At this time, another army sent by Bai Moji also arrived, outflanked it from the flank, and blocked it from the Beifu City.

It’s too late to return to the city.

With the enemy blocking them from the front and the enemy chasing them from the back, He Lingchuan gave his second order:

Abandon Beifu City and the entire army retreat to Nanfu City!
Ordinary armies have poor communication, and they would probably be in chaos if he moved them around so randomly. But although his team was a mixed team of Yuhengcheng Army and Seymour Army, they were all soldiers trained by He Lingchuan and were very familiar with his command style. These several U-turns did not cause any chaos, but instead made everyone run faster.

This time, the Beiga army finally stopped chasing and turned around to capture Beifu City.

This place is called "Fucheng". It is actually a large military camp with city walls and high gates. Only soldiers are stationed in it, not civilians, so it is empty at the moment.

How could Bai Moji care about such a small victory in the past? But now, not only the soldiers were excited, but even he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he could finally sleep well after the battle tonight.

It’s not easy to come by.

Taking over this auxiliary city means taking root in the enemy's territory, and then there is hope of completing the emperor's mission!
In the second half of the night, both sides were reorganizing their troops.

After the Bega army captured the auxiliary city, they were able to move their camp in - which had just been built - and only basic troops were left on the river bank to guard the transportation of supplies, so the entire road from inside to outside was brightly lit.

Most of the troops from Yuheng City retreated to Nanfu City, where they took the time to recover their strength and treat the wounded. The cooks even started to light fires and cook.

The generals stood on the top of the city wall, looking at the lights and the soldiers moving around inside and outside Beifu City, and they were all filled with indignation.

Wen Daolun said to everyone in a gentle voice: "We held the Bejia army on the river bank for 27 days in a row. Who would dare to believe this achievement? It's already amazing!"

The Yuhengcheng Army was formed only three and a half years ago, and He Lingchuan's newly trained Seymour Army and Tiger Wing Army were formed only a year ago. They used this lineup to fight against Bega's army and held out for more than 20 days, which made Wen Daolun very impressed.

Xin Yi also nodded: "They will eventually come ashore."

Objectively speaking, no matter how powerful the Yuheng City army is, it is impossible to keep the Beijia army out of the east coast forever.

This is not realistic.

The door panel said in a deep voice: "The past is the past. Once they gain a foothold in the Maohe Plain, they will cause endless troubles."

Wen Daolun comforted everyone: "The rush to harvest in the Maohe Plain is about to end. Even if they let go and grab as much as they can, they won't be able to grab much."

This is the significance of Yuheng City’s forceful resistance to the enemy—to buy time for the autumn harvest in Pingyuan.

He continued, "We will build strong defenses and clear the fields behind us, so that the Beijia army will not be able to get enough food until next spring and summer."
