After receiving the supplement, Li Dezhi did not feel much relieved. Instead, he felt that the danger was getting closer and closer to him. The reason was that the army of Nanchen Kingdom had found a way to crack the fortifications of Laodao River. For the underground fortress, they relied on their advantages in strength and equipment.

, bombarded continuously with large-caliber artillery until the underground fortress was destroyed.

The ground defense tower standing along the Laodao River was once a masterpiece that Li Dezhi was proud of. Because there are a large number of formations carved on the defense tower, ordinary magic artillery has almost no effect on it. If a large number of troops are concentrated to storm the defense tower

, which will trigger a larger-scale formation and cause a devastating blow to the attacking troops.

After paying the price of countless lives, Nanchen Kingdom finally discovered that these defense towers were not indestructible. The reason why the previous magic artillery strikes were ineffective against it was because these defense towers formed a group of eight to ten.

Formation. When a defense tower in the formation is attacked by a magic cannon, the remaining defense towers can share the damage through the effect of the formation. As long as you concentrate the artillery fire and conduct saturation attacks on all defense towers in the formation at the same time, you can quickly

Destroy these defense towers.

After finding a way, the Nanchen Kingdom army immediately organized the formation masters in the army to deduce the relationship between the defense towers on the south bank of the Laodao River, and quickly drew up a defensive formation map for the entire south bank of the Laodao River.

With the guidance of the formation map, the Nanchen Army's attack progress was much faster. Although the daily casualties were still the same, the enemy's defenses were destroyed more than three times faster than before. It only took five days.

In a short time, the Nanchen State army cleared all the fortifications built by Li Dezhi on the south bank of Laodao River.

After clearing all the defenses on the south bank, Ye Dark Wind did not repair it. He concentrated nearly a thousand magic artillery pieces of the entire army and bombarded them day and night for three days and three nights. After consuming nearly 100,000 magic artillery shells, he finally

An open space ten kilometers wide and three kilometers deep was created on the north bank of the Laodao River as a beachhead for crossing the river.

Three days later, Ye Darkfeng organized 300,000 troops, divided them into 300,000 phalanxes, and crossed the Dao River with great strength. Seeing this, Li Dezhi did not dare to neglect, and also organized 400,000 troops to intercept. This was the first time since the two sides started fighting.

A face-to-face hand-to-hand combat began.

Needless to say, the brutal hand-to-hand combat lasted from morning to evening. One side charged forward with all their strength, while the other side resisted desperately. Both sides were red-blooded, and everyone fought risking their lives.

Even if you only have your last breath left, you will never give up the fight. The battlefield is full of scenes of blood and flesh. Every minute, countless warriors fall to the swords and guns of their opponents. The water of the knife-drawing river is soon stained with blood.

It turned bright red and gradually faded away after three days.

The troops of the Nanchen Kingdom participating in the attack were all veterans from the Rising Sun and Feiyang legions. Their individual soldier quality and equipment level were superior to the state soldiers of the Chen Kingdom. After a whole day of fierce fighting, the balance of victory finally tipped towards them.

The Nanchen Kingdom tilted. In the end, the Nanchen Kingdom's army successfully set foot on the north bank of the Laodao River after paying a price of nearly 100,000 people.

The beachhead on the north bank was breached, and the Nanchen Army continued to pour in. The Chen State defenders, who had lost strategic depth, began to show signs of defeat. In order to preserve their strength, Li Dezhi had to order the entire army to retreat 150 kilometers north.

The second line of defense continued to block the enemy. At this time, the Nanchen State army was no longer able to fight. They could only watch the Chen State army calmly retreat. The month-long Battle of Laodao River finally came to an end.

During this Laodao River battle, in order to buy time, Ye Anfeng changed his past steady and steady style and launched an almost crazy attack on the tightly fortified Laodao River defense line of the Chen State army. In the end, relying on strong military power, the Chen State was torn apart.

The army's defense line won the battle. However, Ye Anfeng also paid a heavy price for this. A month of offensive regardless of the cost, the number of casualties of the Nanchen Kingdom army reached a staggering one million.

, among which more than 400,000 were killed, and as many as 200,000 were seriously injured to the point of permanently losing combat effectiveness.

As the defender, the Chen army suffered equally astonishing casualties. After a great battle, the Chen army suffered more than 700,000 casualties, 300,000 killed, and 150,000 seriously injured and disabled. After this battle, Ai, as the main force, suffered

The Aizhou Army was almost completely wiped out. Fortunately, Ye Xi sent additional troops in time, which allowed the Aizhou Army to barely maintain a little combat effectiveness.

After successfully setting foot on the north bank of the Laodao River, the Nanchen Kingdom's army was exhausted. Their weapons and equipment, especially spells and artillery shells, were greatly consumed and they lost the ability to continue fighting. Ye Darkfeng could only order the troops to repair in place and wait for replenishment of supplies.

Ten days later, the troops were repaired and the equipment and supplies were replenished. Ye Anfeng immediately ordered the troops to set off and march towards the enemy's second line of defense, the Qingshui River defense line. The Qingshui River defense line is located in the middle of Aizhou, with an average width of less than two meters.

The 100-meter-long river is far less difficult to attack than the Naoya River. Ye Anfeng is confident that he can break through the Qingshui River in a short time. As long as he breaks through the Qingshui River, there will be no danger in Aizhou. The Nanchen Kingdom's army can march eastward.
