Chapter 409: Xingluo Reinforcement: It's late

"My lord, the Xingluo Fortress has been occupied by the Heaven Dou Empire! The king coaches have been killed by the enemy! Many of us have died, and only we have escaped."
Among the people who escaped from the Star Luo Fortress, the most powerful Soul Sect said to everyone present.
The man frowned, looked back at Dai Qinglan, then looked at this person, and slowly said, "Don't worry, let's tell the whole story."
The Soul Sect nodded and said: "Good sir. Don’t you know, sir, the person headed by the Heaven Dou Empire [biqudao www.biqudao.vip] is really Su Qin. He is very cheap and has performed a series of insidious moves. Only then took the Xingluo Fortress..."
With a sad expression on his face, the Soul Sect slowly said what had happened before. His narration was full of emotions. Although Dai Qinglan and others had not personally experienced it, they also felt the situation from the words of this person.
This man who appeared to be in his twenties suddenly narrowed his eyes when he heard the name Su Qin, and he was a little surprised, but this subtle change was not noticed by others.
This person is not someone else, it was Ning Fei who followed Su Qin's orders to sneak into the Star Luo Empire a few years ago.
After so many years, Ning Fei has also broken through from the original four-ringed soul sect to the five-ringed soul king, and has found a fairly good position in the Star Luo Empire. Ning Fei had not received Su Qin's order, and had been lurking in the Star Luo Empire.
Although Ning Fei first approached Dai Qinglan for a purpose, after so long, he also developed some feelings for Dai Qinglan and regarded this person with similar experiences as his own confidant. Of course Ning Fei still remembered his mission, and he had already figured out how to do it in the future.
Ning Fei recovered from his thoughts, looked at the person and asked, "How many people have you escaped?"
The soul sect thought a little, and said, "There were about 30,000 people following me, and a few others fled in other directions with others. It is roughly estimated that the number of people who escaped should be around 70,000 or 80,000. "
Ning Fei was also slightly surprised when he heard this number. The 250,000 people who finally escaped were only 70,000 or 80,000? Less than one-third of the total number of defenders!
Ning Fei nodded slightly when he heard the words, and didn't say much. He rode back to Dai Qinglan and the others, and slowly said, "Brother Dai, what should I do now?"
The other generals also showed shocked expressions in their eyes when they heard this. At this time, they also looked at Dai Qinglan, waiting for Dai Qinglan's order.
When Dai Qinglan heard the words, he sighed in his heart. Even though he had already gone all out, he was still a little late after all.
Dai Qinglan was silent for a while, then turned to look at the generals next to him, and said: "General Qian, you will bring these people to the rear for repairs, and wait for the large troops from the rear to arrive. It is only 20 minutes away from the Xingluo Fortress. Camp inside and out. The other generals will bother you to get the other soldiers back."
The generals hesitated a little when they heard the words, then all nodded and said: "Okay."
Immediately, Dai Qinglan looked at Ning Fei and slowly said, "A Fei, you and I will go to the Xingluo Fortress to see the current situation."
Ning Fei showed a look of surprise in his eyes when he heard the words, and quickly stopped: "Brother Dai, there are two titled Douluo-level powerhouses there! It is too dangerous for us to pass by like this. We should wait until the army is there. Get information."
The other generals also showed surprise in their eyes when they heard the words, and they immediately persuaded them.
"Marshal Dai, don't do it!"
"Marshal, your safety is the most important thing, just leave this to the scouts!"
"Boss, this is too dangerous, you can't go!"
...
Listening to the people's words, Dai Qinglan hesitated for a while, but when he recalled Emperor Xingluo, his hesitation was also broken. Although his personality is a bit withdrawn and low self-esteem, it is only when facing the Xingluo royal family. At other times, he also has the pride of being a royal family.
Dai Qinglan glanced at the crowd, a solemn and determined expression appeared in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Then you don't need to say. Just do what I said."
The rest of the people still wanted to persuade something, but after looking at the look in Dai Qinglan's eyes, the words that came to the mouth were swallowed back, Qi Qi should be.
Dai Qinglan nodded slightly, looked at Ning Fei, and said, "A Fei, let's go."
Ning Fei looked at Dai Qinglan, who was somewhat self-inflicted, hesitated for a while, and nodded, "Good Brother Dai."
Immediately, Dai Qinglan and Ning Fei rode towards the Xingluo Fortress.
The rest of the people looked at the backs of the two of them leaving, looked at each other, and did not say anything more, and each followed Dai Qinglan's instructions to do things.
Dai Qinglan led Ning Fei all the way towards the direction of Xingluo Fortress. When the outline of Xingluo Fortress could be seen from a distance, the two dismounted their horses in a dense forest, tied the horses, and then approached carefully. Star Luo Fortress.
It didn't take long for the two of them to reach a place where the walls of Xingluo Fortress could be clearly seen, hiding in a hidden corner and looking toward the walls of Xingluo Fortress.
Above the fortress wall, the banner of the Heaven Dou Empire had been planted at this time, and soldiers from the Heaven Dou Empire were patrolling on the wall, and soldiers from the Heaven Dou Empire were also arranging simple defenses outside the wall.
The Xingluo Fortress was the first line of defense built by the Xingluo Empire against the Heaven Dou Empire, and naturally it had also considered the possibility of loss. Therefore, the wall of the Star Luo Fortress facing the Star Luo Empire is not as thick as the one facing the Heaven Dou. The thickness of the wall is even thinner than that of a normal city wall. The height is only about 15 meters, and there is no moat.
Therefore, although the Xingluo Fortress was taken by the Heaven Dou Empire, the fortress here is not easy to defend. If the Star Luo Empire wants to retake the Xingluo Fortress with the same force, it will attack the stars more than the Heaven Dou Empire. Fortress Luo is much easier.
When both Dai Qinglan saw this scene, they looked at each other, and both saw a touch of helplessness in each other's eyes. The two did not stay long, even if they returned the same way. The two returned to the large army to rectify their equipment, and gathered the lieutenant generals to start thinking about how to recapture the Xingluo Fortress.
...
In the Xingluo Fortress, Su Qin and others were summing up the casualties after the war.
In the battle of the Tiandou Empire, more than 40,000 soldiers died, more than 50,000 disabled, and more than 110,000 Xingluo soldiers were captured. Among them, many of them were disabled. A total of more than 50,000 Xingluo Fortress soldiers were killed. Capture Xingluo, two titled Douluo, several soul sages, and hundreds of soul masters of varying levels.
From the above point of view, the attack of the Heaven Dou Empire was an acceptable victory.
