The day's battle had ended, and the last rays of the sun shone on the ruined battlefield, making it seem even more desolate.
Zhang Xing, who didn't follow the rules, led the Magical Beast Army and chased after the seven hundred thousand soldiers of Nucor's Allied Army relentlessly.
The Magical Beast Army fought all the way to the border town of the Nucor Empire.
Spoor Town was the Nucor Empire's first line of defense.
The twenty-two-meter-tall, five-meter-thick stone walls blocked the advance of the Magical Beast Army.
The city gates were tightly shut, and the terrified guards hid under the walls, trembling.
Spoor Town was the reserve force of the Nucor Empire, and there were close to two million people in total.
But of these two million people, only five hundred thousand could fight. The rest were from the logistics team.
They would never have thought that the one million strong army at the frontlines would be reduced to a few hundred thousand in just one day.
Moreover, their opponent was Zhang Xing, the murderous maniac who was wanted by Gebrey all over the world!
They believed in the murderous maniac, but how could someone with such great power be a bandit?
Even King Gebre would not have thought that he would offend such a terrifying person.
At this moment, in the Imperial Palace of Fort Coden in the Nucor Empire, there was a gloomy atmosphere. All the important figures had been summoned to the meeting hall by the Emperor.
No one was willing to speak up for Gebre, but no one dared to criticize him either.
The hall had been silent for an hour.
Gebre knew what these people were thinking. They were still sitting here peacefully, but when that Zhang Xing really attacked, they would probably join him at the first moment and trample on their former master. They wouldn't even spare him a glance.
He really wanted to kill these fence-sitters one by one, but he needed them now, and he could not do without their help.
Zhang Xing, oh Zhang Xing!
He had thought that this troublemaker would quickly become a target of scorn under his strategy, but now it seemed like he had poked a hornet's nest.
Who would have thought that he had the ability to control Magical Beasts?
What a mistake!
He regretted not listening to Duke Wendelen's advice.
What was the use of knowing Zhang Xing's so-called secrets?
With his ability to summon a Magical Beast Army, no one dared to provoke him.
"Lord Militant, how many men can we mobilize?"
"Oh, I mean, before Zhang Xing arrives at Fort Coden, how many soldiers can you deploy to the capital?"
Gebre looked at Sparker on his left.
"Your Majesty, there are about five million soldiers stationed at Fort Coden. I can mobilize another five to eight million within three days."
"Ten million soldiers, activate the city's defensive formation. I believe we can defend against the Demonic Beasts."
"If we can hold on for half a month, the troops of the vassal states will arrive continuously. A month later, we will be able to launch our counterattack!"
Spak said loudly.
The others were also moved when they heard this. Persisting for more than a month did not seem to be a difficult task.
War was a battle of time, manpower, food, and weapons.
The Niucor Empire didn't lack any of these three things.
"Nanba, how many troops can you send?"
Gebre looked at the representative of Nanba.
"If Fort Coden can hold on for more than 15 days, we can send at least five million troops."
"What about Xisi?" Gebre asked.
"Your Majesty, I think we can send at least five million troops."
Gebre nodded in satisfaction. The alliance of the three countries was bound together for good or ill.
Zhang Xing would not let any of them go.
