Misfortunes never come singly. Not long after the rear troops fought with the pursuing Destroyers, the scouts from the front also reported that they had discovered a group of enemy troops not far ahead.
The protagonist doesn't know whether this enemy group took a detour to pursue them, or whether they just happened to be stationed there and were hit by the Divine Envoy King's army. Without the flying knights as eyes in the sky, the Legion of the God Envoy King is like a blind man who can only stretch out his hands to sense the surrounding environment. The range of perception is very limited, and he can only rely on luck to choose the direction to break out. Maybe he will hit an iron plate head-on.
The protagonist shouts to come here and let him lead the beetle troops of the 1st Legion to charge for a while. Only the Beetle Legion can break through the enemy's blockade as quickly as possible and cover the breakout of the large forces.
The army did not dare to stay for a long time. Once dawn, the enemy would definitely pursue them in full force. If they could escape for one more minute, maybe one more team of soldiers would be able to escape.
The Beetle Legion took the order and left. Although the large stag beetle with the strongest assault force was no longer in the legion, under the cover of the double-pronged Rhinoceros tank equipped with a ballistae, the medium-sized beetle assault troops quickly dispersed and eliminated these beetles. With a force of more than 200 Destroyers, the army was able to continue on its way.
After that, the pursuing enemies continued to catch up with the rear of the breakout army, and more and more legions in the rear were forced to serve as the rear troops, and they were completely lost from the news.
On the road where the Divine Messenger King's army broke through, there were dead corpses everywhere, like black lines, marking the movement path of the army.
A greater danger will soon come.
The sky finally brightened, and a familiar "buzz buzz buzz" sound came from the air. The protagonist looks up at the sky. It should be that the flying knights have finally taken off. Now the Angel King's army is in desperate need of reconnaissance from the air.
The encirclement of the Envoy King's army was extremely conspicuous from the air, and several bee flying knights quickly found the protagonist.
But before the protagonist could be happy about the arrival of the Flying Knight, he received bad news.
Judging from the information package provided by the Flying Knight, the Destroyers who originally surrounded [Qingqiu City] have discovered that the defenders have broken through and are chasing the south from all directions, just like countless lines are gradually converging together and once again gathering into A black tide that swallows everything.
The scale of this black tide far exceeds any Destroyer force that the Angel King's army has fought before.
The number of Destroyers who are chasing is estimated to be tens of thousands, most of them are large Destroyers, and there are also a few small Destroyers.
Under the guidance of the Radar Destroyer who finally woke up, they chased in the direction pointed by the Radar Destroyer's tentacles. Among them, the large group of Destroyers is still about more than an hour away, but the front group of about a thousand small Destroyers is less than half an hour away from the rear group.
What's even worse is that there are still scattered Destroyers along the way harassing and containing the breakout troops. These scattered destroyers are small groups of enemy troops stationed outside [Qingqiu City]. Some are performing reconnaissance missions nearby, and some are exploring the abandoned secondary nests of the Angel King's legion.
Once the breakout army is entangled by these sporadic enemies, a steady stream of destroyers will drag the army into the abyss.
Previously, the protagonist led an army of 90,000 and defeated 5,000 Destroyers in a field battle. But this time, the number of enemies was greater, tens of thousands, and the troops were fully equipped. But at the moment, there are only less than 80,000 soldiers in the Divine Envoy King's army. Due to the ebb and flow, the protagonist simply does not dare to fight a decisive battle with the enemy.
Moreover, this force is now the last main force of the entire Divine Envoy King's Legion. The protagonist cannot risk everything. He cannot afford the gamble, and the Divine Envoy King's Legion cannot afford to gamble.
——I am the dividing line——
At around eight o'clock, the army of the God Envoy King who broke out arrived at a patch of dense grass on a slope. The grass stems and leaves here were criss-crossed, making it unsuitable for the army to pass.
At this time, the army of the God's Envoy King had divided nearly 8,000 troops into continuous battles to carry out the mission of never returning, and the enemy was getting closer.
The protagonist feels that this dense grass is not suitable for large troops to pass through, so he orders the army to go around and march on the nearby flat ground.
The Flying Knight did not notice any movement in this area in the air. Even the small groups of enemy troops that had been popping up before were reduced. The Angel King's army seemed to have escaped the most dangerous part of the road. As long as they were not overtaken by the pursuers behind them, , it seems safe.
Blessings never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone.
Just as the army was passing through the dense grass, a group of thousands of large destroyers suddenly appeared from the grass. Before, the flying knights had never noticed that there were so many enemies lurking in the grass.
They directly blocked the waist and cut the encircling God's Envoy King's army into two sections, and then ignored the first half of the God's Envoy King's warriors and pressed directly to the rear.
The protagonist was so anxious after hearing the news that half of the troops were separated. Once the pursuers caught up and attacked from both sides, these troops would be completely wiped out.
The main force of the God Envoy King's army is now so much. If half of the nearly 40,000 troops are lost in this breakout battle, the rest of the war will be impossible to fight.
For now, the only way is to defeat this sudden force of destroyers and rescue the separated troops as soon as possible.
According to the information provided by the Flying Knight, the main force of the enemy of the Great Destroyer still has half an hour to arrive, and the rescue operation must be completed within half an hour.
The protagonist no longer hesitated. He picked up the mace and ordered the 1st Army Corps and Rambo Flying's 2nd Army to follow him back for reinforcements. The remaining troops left two legions to build a temporary position in front to prepare for the response. keep going.
When the protagonist arrives at the battlefield with the Guards Squad and two veteran main legions, the place is already in chaos.
The blocked troops behind were in chaos. They had no fighting spirit and only wanted to break out according to the original plan. Therefore, they all chose to take a detour and had no intention of staying and fighting.
However, under the enemy's fierce offensive, the troops fighting on their own could not escape at all. Wherever they appeared, they would be hit hard by the enemy and forced to retreat.
Obviously, the enemy commander is very smart and knows that it is difficult to completely block the retreat of the warriors of the God Envoy King who are eager to return home with just his thousands of troops. He can only tighten his fists and attack flexibly to let the God Envoy King lose his unified command. The legion stayed in place and did not dare to break through.
But the enemy obviously didn't expect that the Legion of the God's Envoy King, who had already broken through, would fight back.
The protagonist enters the state of being descended from the gods, and rushes into the enemy's formation first. He runs and jumps on foot, and is actually a minute faster than the beetles under Gun's command. The Imperial Guard team can only chase behind and barely keep up.
The protagonist's power of a cat cannot be blocked by any Destroyer. The Destroyers surrounding him were swept away by the mace in a circle and smashed away.
When his subordinates catch up, the protagonist continues to rush forward, vowing to defeat this enemy force before the gods come down to earth to make contact.
