Chapter 1483 - Crisis (4)

“Then will the Broken Star Palace attack us head-on? If they attack, wouldn’t we be unable to use Black Tortoise and the others?” Tang Nazhi was thoroughly dumbstruck. The Broken Star Palace had a special method to deal with magical beasts, and if they were to attack, then they simply cannot use their magical beast!

Shen Yanxiao shook her head.

“Since they have brought out the four-nation alliance, it means that they do not intend to take action personally. Even if they did, it would be much later.”

“Err, should we be on guard?” Tang Nazhi asked.

Qi Xia said, “There’s no need for that. If they were to fight, it would be a battle royale with millions of people. It’s basically impossible for them to attack the Black Tortoise and the rest, so there’s no need to worry.”

No matter what methods the Broken Star Palace had to deal with magical beasts, it required a lot of preparation before it could be completed. There was not much time and space to prepare in a war of millions, so there was no need to worry about that.

“But for the sake of safety, try not to let Black Tortoise and the rest attack the enemy’s rearguard.” Qi Xia added.

Nangong Mengmeng sat on one side and quietly listened to the Phantom members’ discussion. Her heart was in her throat. The crisis this time was too huge for Shen Yanxiao and she was worried that she would not survive.

“Mengmeng, do you know when they will arrive at the Forsaken Land?” Shen Yanxiao asked.

Nangong Mengmeng said, “The Sage speculates that it will be in thirteen days.”

Thirteen days.

They only had thirteen days to prepare.

Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes. Time was of the essence.

“Xiaoxiao, what are your plans?” Qi Xia asked.

Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath and said, “Investigate which outermost city they are going to attack first. Yang Xi, you have to gather all the military reserves during this period of time. Once you notice their movements, immediately transport any supplies over. Right now, tell the demons to put down their work for the time being and guard the surrounding cities. Once they discover the alliance of the four countries, immediately light up the smoke and gather all the demons in the nearby cities.”

Shen Yanxiao’s decision surprised Qi Xia.

“Are you planning to start from the outskirts?” This was definitely a bold idea. According to the current situation, guarding the main city was the best method. However, Shen Yanxiao intended to start from the outskirts, which would be much more difficult.

“Fight and retreat at the same time. Have Du Lang and the rest transport everyone in the surrounding cities to the main city. Once the war starts, I will compensate the merchants for their losses after the war. What I want is to use every city to deplete their forces. For every city they conquer, I want them to pay the price in blood. We only have to guard the city walls and use artillery to attack. If we cannot defend the city, retreat immediately. Do not leave anyone in the city and do not have any direct conflict with the armies of the four countries. I’d like to see how many people they have to sacrifice to attack Sun Never Sets!” Shen Yanxiao sneered. She would not disperse her forces, but she would not easily give up her other cities.

If they wanted to take her city, they would have to leave tens of thousands of lives!

She would like to see how long could the front line of the four-nation alliance last in a battle for more than fifty cities!

“So ruthless!” Tang Nazhi clicked his tongue in wonder as he looked at Shen Yanxiao. Probably only Shen Yanxiao could think of such a method. If they did not clash head-on, there would not be any casualties. If they wanted to enter a city that was fitted with artillery, they would have to attack the city. If they were to attack the city, the casualties would not be small.
