The moment such a crazy thing happened, which even I didn't know how it was done, the Hescos tried to counter this by recalling their forces back.
However at this moment I noticed many figures flying from all over the back region of the Hescos defences.
"Zombies? They even brought out zombies? Hahahaha! These two sneaky bastards, hahahaha!" I laughed till tears came into my eyes.
I didn't know how these two bastards did it, but that didn't make me less happier. I watched the Hescos fighting in a desperate way against everyone everywhere, acting like headless flies who got thrown into the middle of fire.
No matter what they did, no matter where they tried to go, everywhere was now filled with my forces. Ground or sky, my forces filled everywhere.
These two little bastards really outdone it this time. Even I got tricked by them, and I still didn't know how they managed to do it!
The previously hard to win battle turned into such chaotic and guerilla-like warfare. The forces of both sides kept fighting nonstop, all trying to keep themselves alive.
For Hescos and their allied forces, this turned into a fight for survival. Winning or losing didn't become an issue for them anymore. They couldn't keep themselves alive to begin with.
As for my forces, they moved like dragons in the sky. They were unstoppable, killing anywhere they went, and they were helping each other all over the vast battleground.
When the fight turned to cover up the entire grand defensive structure, I could finally see it as a whole. The defences were built over a grand space that was at least three times the size of my capital. And my capital was indeed massive.
That made me think about something. Did we trespass into the capital of the Hescos in that world by accident? That might explain what just happened so far.
Or else how could they build such a grand defensive zone, with the edges showing signs of still under construction.
I now realised why the Hescos tried to risk hitting my forces with everything they got. They seemed strong and mighty, but their defences were still incomplete. And so their forces had to take the risk to save what remained of the completed zones.
That was in the past. Right now they were trying to find a path away from the defences and run for their lives. Many succeeded, but most of their troops were trapped in the middle of my forces, getting killed without any chance to fight back.
I watched all this in cold blood, feeling nothing but pride in my forces and generals. I reached such a stage thanks to my preparations, ones that took me tons of resources and lots of time.
If I didn't do a single thing of what I struggled to do before, this victory wouldn't be real.
Be it training the troops out there at the training grounds, gaining capable generals and talents like Legend and others, establishing the research department, or even trying the crazy solution of Loran and his people.
This was like a grand scheme that I never intended from the start but everything seemed to fill in their positions. Without a single factor, things would have ended up bad.
I felt lucky, lucky that each step I took, every decision I made was right. I was blessed by this, and that was just part of my strength.
I inhaled it deep, feeling how it was great to crush my enemies and end up victorious. I watched how such a mighty race who ruled over the entire universe was getting smashed by my forces.
It felt awesome! And when I thought about the recording I was promised with by Silverlining, I felt more ecstatic about it.
The battle seemed to go on forever, but I knew it was almost over. The remaining forces of Hescos weren't even enough to bring me any headache or put out a fight anymore.
"Lily," after watching many Hescos escape and the rest were unable to enjoy the same chance, I decided, "send out envoys inside, tell these two to start accepting surrender."
"Are we going to take control of these Hescos?!" Lily seemed speechless. She was like the others, not knowing what was going on at the other side of the portal.
So it seemed shocking when I said it. For her, for everyone, the best case scenario was for our forces to push the enemy back and control enough area to control.
None of them imagined we could reach this point, the point that we have the ability to accept surrendering Hescos forces.
"Just hurry and send envoys out," I paused before adding, "after controlling the place there, they have to keep pushing forward. We need to find a portal out there to link it with here."
"O… Ok…" Lily's face was expressing how deeply shocked she was. She exchanged looks with others before she and many generals started to send out their people.
They were curious to know what happened, and so they decided to send their people there to check out what went on out there.
They didn't know that I planned to get the recording tapes of this battle, showcase it all over my capital. It was a golden chance, and I wouldn't let it go.
I waited for half an hour before finally seeing a majestic scene. All over the entire battlefield, many forces fell to the ground, abandoning the fight and issuing their surrender.
I watched hundreds of thousands of Hescos, even millions fall to their knees, raise their hands over their heads, stopping fighting and announcing their decision to surrender.
As for the allied races who fought under the Hescos banner, they were in tens of millions.
These races were mostly fodders, weak to not be considered proper forces. But if I got them and sent them with my forces out, they could work as good fodder, saving the deaths of many of my forces.
