Rebirth of the Strongest Seventh Prince

Chapter 156: The Fall of Juegu Pass 1

The demon army was advancing much faster than everyone imagined. As the saying goes, "If you don't think about the future, you will have immediate worries." In fact, the major families of the Business Alliance had been prepared for a long time. Although they didn't expect the situation to be so bad, since the last tragic battle at Juegu Pass, the major families have begun to quietly move their family businesses to other countries in the north. They have branch bases almost everywhere in the continent. Even if the main base of the Business Alliance is destroyed, they can rebuild it after repelling the demons. Their business families have plenty of money. Now it has been a few days. Although there are still many shops in the Business Alliance, the main businesses and connections of the major families have been safely evacuated. Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner. As the main force of the demon army approaches, the Business Alliance has also issued a nationwide announcement, calling on all the people in the Business Alliance to evacuate to the north. It would be best if they could at least cross the natural canyon. With the mainland coalition forces, unless the demons are really powerful and unmatched, they will not be able to enter the deeper hinterland of the continent.

The mouth of the valley.

The main force of the demon army arrived two days earlier than humans expected. It is conceivable how fast the demon army advanced.

On the vast wasteland outside the Juegu Pass, the endless demon army was resting. Millions of infantrymen were sharpening their knives. Since the demons attacked the continent again, they had been attacking humans with heavy cavalry and alien beasts. Most of their infantrymen had not yet stained their hands with human blood, and they were already itching to get started. Tens of thousands of huge alien beasts were lying on the huge rocks, their eyes flashing with ferociousness, their mouths constantly drooling, and they were staring at the direction of Juegu Pass viciously.

There were countless huge catapults in the endless demon army. The most terrifying thing was the eight huge and amazing city-breaking hammers placed in front of the catapults. They were no less than twenty feet long and were swinging on thick iron chains. The blacksmiths of the demon clan had been working hard for a long time to forge this terrifying weapon. Its tip was cast in the shape of a roaring demon dragon head, and it was cast with a spell of destruction. In order to respect their god, the demon god Lucifer, the demon clan named this city-breaking hammer the Demon Hammer.

The transportation of this battering ram weighing hundreds of thousands of pounds is naturally mainly completed by the huge monsters from the abyss. In front are two huge monsters with iron chains hanging on their bodies, and they are surrounded by many demons, who are responsible for operating this terrifying city-breaking machine.

Behind the catapults were countless giant crossbows. The enemy used giant crossbows to deal with their heavy cavalry and alien beast corps, so they had to fight back and use giant crossbows to deal with the enemy's highly mobile assault corps. Not only that, these giant crossbows were extremely destructive. If they were equipped with magic crossbow arrows, they could even destroy city walls, so they could also be used as siege tools.

In the central tent of the demon clan, the highest-ranking generals of the demon clan army had gathered here. In the tent, the demon clan commander Ye Lan sat in the front seat, and the demon clan generals stood in two rows. In the middle, kneeling on the ground was the vanguard general Ye Kong, who was now apologizing.

"Marshal, Ye Kong is incompetent. He was unable to capture Juegu Pass before the arrival of the army, which also caused the deaths of over a hundred alien beasts and hundreds of fallen angels. Ye Kong feels sorry for the Marshal and is willing to accept the punishment and resign from the position of Vanguard General!" Ye Kong lowered his head.

Ye Lan leaned in his seat, expressionless, his fingers tapping the edge of the chair lightly, without saying a word.

The demon generals standing on both sides were also observing Ye Lan's expression, and no one dared to speak carelessly. If there were humans here, they would definitely find that there was a human among the demon generals. However, don't be fooled by his appearance. His name is Ye Mo, the offspring of humans and demons, the offspring of Ye Hun, who was regarded as an evil person by humans, and the demon princess.

Seeing that no one spoke, Ye Mo stood up and bowed, "Marshal, I think General Yekong's contributions are enough to offset his mistakes. We must be clear that humans have gathered millions of troops at Juegu Pass. If it weren't for the unfavorable terrain, they would have already rushed out of Juegu Pass and slaughtered our vanguard troops one by one. Although General Yekong's night attack did not capture Juegu Pass, it also killed hundreds of thousands of human troops, causing low morale among humans, so I think his merits outweigh his faults!"

When other demon generals heard someone speak, they also pleaded for Ye Kong. Ye Kong looked at Ye Mo gratefully. The reason why he came to plead guilty was not only because he was ashamed, but also because he wanted to keep his position. Because Ye Lan liked people who dared to take responsibility for their mistakes the most. With the pleas of others, Ye Kong's position as the vanguard general would definitely be kept.

As expected, Ye Lan laughed loudly and said, "Ye Mo said it well, Ye Kong, your merits outweigh your faults. If there is any fault, it is actually my fault. I did not put myself in your shoes. After all, there are millions of human troops gathered there. How can you conquer them with just your few men? And you were able to kill hundreds of thousands of human troops, which is really amazing! You deserve the position of Vanguard General!"

"Thank you, Marshal!" Ye Kong was overjoyed.

Ye Lan smiled and continued, "According to what you said, the human army at Juegu Pass has about five million people, and there are also five thousand griffin knights, magic cannons, and terrifying giant crossbows. However, these may be big obstacles for your vanguard, but for our army of tens of millions, they are nothing. You go back and start preparing. I may order an attack on the city at any time and massacre Juegu Pass!"

"Order!"

Juegu Pass.

At this time, the entire Juegu Pass was filled with tension. The early arrival of the main demon army made the soldiers of Juegu Pass panic. In the past few days, the alien beasts and fallen angels alone had caused them heavy casualties, and now there were tens of millions of demon troops. How could they resist?

In the hall, the Great Sword Saint Vina, the Holy Mage Nalanchuan, the Gatekeeper General of Juegu Pass Lei Ao and other generals gathered together to discuss how to face the main force of the demons.

"Everyone, the main force of the demon army is arriving sooner than we expected. Now tens of millions of demon troops are temporarily resting outside the pass. According to the demon clan's usual swift and decisive style, I estimate that they will start attacking the city tonight at the latest!" Weiner's face was solemn.

"Once the main force of the demon clan arrives, we will definitely not be able to resist. We have no choice but to evacuate Juegu Pass and lead the army to the Natural Grand Canyon to form an alliance with the armies of other countries!" said Nalanchuan.

Weiner frowned and said, "The problem is that the headquarters asked me to delay the demons as much as possible and keep the demon army at Juegu Pass for a few more days."

The guarding general Lei Ao said firmly: "Two commanders, you lead the army to the Grand Canyon first, I will block this place!"

Weiner frowned and said, "Brother Lei, what do you mean? How could we leave you behind?"

Lei Ao smiled and said, "General, I have been in Juegu Pass for dozens of years and have long regarded Juegu Pass as my home. The demons want to destroy my home, and Lei Ao is the first to disagree. Since we can't stop the demons, it doesn't matter whether you are here or not. It's better for you to go to the Grand Canyon of Nature. That's where you should be. Only there can you have the capital to fight the demons and avenge us!"

Nalan Chuan said anxiously: "Brother Lei——"

Lei Ao waved his hand and said, "General, please don't say more. Lei Ao has made up his mind and will never leave Juegu Pass. Even if he dies, Lei Ao will die in Juegu Pass and take a few more demons with him!"
