Chapter 622 Tan Aili takes over the Southern Xinjiang Mountain Division

After an in-depth and candid exchange with Senior Nasendi, those high-ranking generals with great power and reputation also took their seats one by one.

At this time, Tan Aili coughed lightly, cleared her throat, and then said loudly: "Generals, I have just arrived here and know very little about the Southern Mountain Division. However, now we have lost two crucial lines of defense in succession, causing the 600,000-man army to suffer an unprecedented defeat!

I am here to serve in times of crisis. As everyone knows, the military has always respected strength, so I do not expect you to obey me as you did to your old master. But for now, I hope you will follow the emperor's orders. Just follow the instructions and obey the orders. "

After saying this, she suddenly drew out the king's sword from her waist, raised it high above her head, and said sternly:

"This is a precious sword bestowed by the king, representing the supreme imperial power. If anyone dares to disobey military orders, he will be killed without mercy!"

Tan Aili knew that these generals were not her direct and trusted followers, so they would not obey her orders like her former subordinates. Therefore, she had to use the royal sword, which symbolized the imperial power, to restrain and control them.

She slowly looked around, her eyes sweeping across the faces of every general, and saw that everyone had a gloomy face and was silent. For a moment, the entire hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn...

After a while, Tan Aili gently put the king's sword back into the scabbard and continued:

"The fact that we have lost two lines of defense is an established fact. This is not the time to pursue responsibility, and I will no longer pursue military responsibility for this matter in the future. However, from today on, I will personally supervise and examine the merits and demerits of the soldiers of the three armies, and reward the good and punish the evil in a fair and clear manner!"

After hearing that they would not be held accountable for negligence, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. There were some noises in the room...

Tan Aili gave them some time to discuss, and then pressed her hand again:

"The reason behind this defeat was the Church's covert intervention and the participation of a large number of magicians. Our combat mages were busy with the aftermath of the plague and were unable to spare any time, so we were defeated.

It’s not all because of the ineffectiveness of the troops. I am here, unable to bring a new generation of mountain divisions to support us. I still have to rely on the existing troops to stabilize the situation. I dare not guarantee that we can win this battle. Next, I hope that the generals will express their opinions and discuss the situation…”

The military meeting was held to hear about the situation on the battlefield. Currently, there was not much strategy to implement in defending Zhennan City. Encouraging them to speak freely was just to appease the emotions of the generals.

The enemy attacked the city halfway through the meeting. Tan Aili had nothing to say, so she adjourned the meeting and let the three generals command the troops to defend the city.

Seniors Feng Kasi and Sendi followed Tan Aili to the city wall to watch the battle and did not express their opinions for the time being. The mountain division was defending the city with difficulty. The current situation was a chain reaction following the plague.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the plague only caused a devastating blow to Shadowmoon City and had no impact on other places. As soon as the plague broke out in Zhennan City, the second mobile team came with dark element detectors to wipe out the dark priests.

A large amount of antidote was immediately mobilized into the city, so no serious damage was caused.

The two sides fought fiercely. These siege enemies had protective barriers, which were blessed by the magic of a large number of enemy priests. Fortunately, the elite mountain division withstood the attack and waited for the enemy to tire themselves out. Countless siege soldiers were killed and wounded.

Tan Aili felt relieved when she saw the battle situation, and said to senior Sendi beside her: "Sendi, your war eagle is now at the age of merit. Can you take the opportunity to kill a group of priests? We can fully defend against the current round of attack, so there is no need to worry~".

Sendi laughed: "That's exactly what I meant. Madam, please sit back and I will act according to the circumstances..."

Sandy was still the same as before, using his air advantage to attack the opponent's magicians and priests. This was the only method Tan Aili could think of at the moment.

She also sighed. The Magic Island was suddenly faced with a huge change. All the masters had used the secret teleportation array to return to the island to participate in the battle in order to unify the Magic Island. They would not be able to come back to help for a while.

More than two hundred low-end magicians were left to manage Sheldon Castle. They were temporarily not qualified to go to the battlefield and contribute to Sheldon's economy and construction.

Emily wrote to say that a part of the core area of ​​Shield was moved to build magic facilities to be used as a backup base for Vita Tower. If Vita Tower was defeated, a group of magician seed members would withdraw to Shield to practice. It can be seen that the situation on Magic Island is also very critical...

The situation on the Magic Island has hindered Blaney. Now that he has become a high-ranking figure in Wit Tower, he has to control some magicians to participate in the war and cannot get away.

Tan Aili suddenly felt very stressed without Blainey's help. At least she helped her solve most of the difficult problems.

And that idiot, his life or death is uncertain, Tan Aili is waiting for good news from him every day. If he dies, her spiritual support will collapse, and she will not know how to deal with it...

Feng Kasi behind him said: "Marshal, I don't understand where such a small border country can get so many troops? They are far less powerful than Pulse!"

Tan Aili: "The Maya Alliance has at least more than a dozen principalities. The church armed forces in this area cannot be underestimated. There may be more than those in Pumasai. As far as I know, we have wiped out at least one million church armed forces in the country! There are also countless princes with hidden church forces..."

Feng Kasi: "Alas! If the church forces are completely eliminated, I'm afraid there won't be many survivors in Pumasai. What should we do? In this battle, looking at the dark masses of enemies and their endless attacks, it's hard to say who will win or lose..."

Tan Aili: "It is not a bad thing that the country is in trouble, otherwise it would be impossible to implement new policies and completely change the cannibalistic world in 10,000 years. If there are fewer people, the arable land will be enough to distribute, people will have enough food and clothing, the population will recover quickly, and we can fight as usual. Bad things are sometimes good things. Reforms are impossible in peacetime..."

Feng Kasi agreed with this and looked at the fighting on the city wall. At this moment, the troops were sufficient. After repelling one group, new soldiers took over and the old soldiers retreated in an orderly manner to recuperate and rest.

This is a pure war of attrition, with no room for shortcuts.

"Marshal, let me go and check the logistics. Should we call on the civilians in the car to kill cattle and cook sheep for the military and make some delicious food to reward the three troops?"

Tan Aili was concentrating on the fight between the two sides, and her thoughts were pulled back by Feng Kasi, who smiled and said: "Our mobile bank has not yet entered the city. We can write IOUs to the civilians, and any meat, fruits and vegetables can be exchanged for money. We can requisition them to cook and give them gold coins. Now that I am here, the food must be improved..."

After receiving the order, von Kasi did not dare to delay for a moment. He immediately took action and began to prepare steaming and fragrant military rations.

In order to make the soldiers eat better, he also actively mobilized nearby civilians to participate in the work of improving the food. Everyone worked together and was busy, making the work very lively.

In the distance, dazzling lightning flashed across the sky from time to time, accompanied by deafening thunder. This meant that Master Sendi had already started to take action!

He cleverly took advantage of the absolute safety provided by the surrounding environment and quietly attacked the priests and magicians.

Master Sendi continuously released powerful lightning rays from his hands. These rays were like nimble silver snakes, rushing towards the target at lightning speed.

Every time the ray hit a priest, it would cause a tragic scene - some priests were instantly charred by electricity and fell to the ground; others twitched in pain and wailed in despair.

However, Master Sendy did not rush for success, but adopted a steady and cautious strategy. He only focused on destroying a small number of priests each time, and gradually weakened their ability to assist the paladins through this piecemeal approach.

Once he was tired, he would retreat to the city without hesitation to rest, gather his strength, and wait for another attack the next day. If he continued at this pace, he would be able to successfully kill a group of priests every day, thus gradually changing the strength comparison between the two sides on the battlefield.
