412. Zhou Tianxingdou reappears(2/2)
Now, the Heavenly Court is facing a crisis, and those who have joined the Heavenly Court because of the temptation of interests naturally cannot count on it.
Step by step, he sat down. Haotian looked at Taibai Jinxing and others standing alone in this huge palace and smiled and said, "I am very happy that you are willing to continue to follow me. But to be honest, even if you stay here, it is useless. Let's all go away. If I can survive this disaster by chance, you will need you to assist me in the future. If I have not survived this disaster, there is no need for you to bury me."
However, in the face of Haotian's remarks, none of Taibai and Jinxing left.
They all bowed down and said in unison without hesitation: "I am willing to die for Your Majesty!"
Looking at the few people who looked resolute and without any wavering, Haotian sighed, but in the end he did not continue to persuade them to leave.
He said, "Since all the ministers are unwilling to leave, let our king and minister fight against the enemy here. Chang Geng will open the Zhoutian Star Fighting Formation."
"promise!"
Taibai Venus retreated in response.
After a moment, a large array of stars slowly rose up with Lingxiao Palace as the center, covering the entire bullfighting palace.
This is also the legacy left by the demon clan.
Although Haotian was already in ruins when he got it, after years of restoration, this guardian formation that once became the ancient heavenly court has recovered some of its power.
Even if there is no Chaos Bell and the River Map and Luoshu, with the blessing of the power of stars, this great formation cannot be underestimated.
This is Haotian’s last trump card.
The opening of the Zhoutian Star Dou Array finally stopped the human army from chasing and killing.
The Heavenly Army, who had finally escaped into the bullfighting palace under the pursuit of the human army, could finally take a moment of breathing.
But even so, the Nantian Legion and Tianhe Naval Army had a total of 1.2 million Tianmen, but there were only more than 200,000 people who retreated to the Bullfighting Palace. Moreover, most of these Tianmen were injured, so it was difficult to form any combat power.
As for when the reinforcements from the several Tianshang Legions who were responsible for guarding other Tianmen will arrive, no one knows.
Even Tianpeng doubted whether these legions would come to support after learning about the fall of the Nantianmen.
After all, among the Tianjun, except for him and Tianhe Water Army commanded by Tianyou, who are absolutely loyal to Haotian, the other four Tianjuns are mixed with fish and dragons.
Fortunately, these people definitely dare not openly violate Haotian's orders, but now that the South Heaven Gate is in danger, the Heavenly Court is in danger, and Haotian cannot protect himself. It is completely unknown whether these people will obey Haotian's orders.
It can be said without hesitation that Tianpeng is very pessimistic about the development of the future situation.
But no matter what he thinks, he still needs to do what he should do.
To endured his inner fatigue, he ordered Tianyou to arrange the remaining Tianjun to set up defenses in the bullfighting palace, while Tianpeng himself walked towards Lingxiao Palace.
He was going to meet Haotian and ask about the next arrangements.
When he walked into Lingxiao Palace and looked at the few people in the empty hall, although he had expected it, Tianpeng felt a little sad when he saw this situation.
Seeing Tianpeng covered in blood-stained armor walking in from outside, Taibai Jinxing and others saluted him one after another: "Master Tianpeng, you are here."
He nodded to Taibai Jinxing and others, Tianpeng saluted to Haotian and said, "Mr. General Mo is incompetent and failed to defend the South Heaven Gate. Please forgive me."
Although Haotian ordered his retreat to the bullfighting palace, in Tianpeng's view, it was his dereliction of duty that he could not defend the South Heaven Gate.
The strength of the enemy is not an excuse, but one's own weakness is the original sin.
Looking at Tianpeng kneeling in the hall on one knee, Haotian smiled on his face: "It's fine if you're fine, get up quickly."
Tianpeng stood up in a heavy mood.
Looking at Haotian, who had not dried up the blood in the corner of his mouth, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
It took him a long time to control his emotions and ask for instructions: "Your Majesty, all the remaining soldiers of the Tianhe Water Army and the Nantian Legion have retreated to the Bullfighting Palace and swear to guard His Majesty to the death. What should be arranged next? Please tell me."
When Haotian heard Tianpeng mention these two legions, he was silent for a moment, and then asked: "How many people are left?"
Tianpeng's breathing stagnated.
After a long time, he slowly said: "Report to Your Majesty, there are more than 170,000 soldiers in the Tianhe Navy Army and more than 80,000 soldiers in the Nantian Army."
Because the Nantian Legion was the first to be defeated, even if it joined the war again, it was not on the main battlefield. Therefore, the casualties and injuries were mainly soldiers of the Tianhe Water Army, and there were many people left in the Nantian Legion.
When Haotian heard the numbers that Tianpeng said, he was speechless for a long time.
Eighty-hundred-thousand Tianhe Naval Army.
Four hundred thousand South Heaven Legion.
Now there are only so many people left...
After a long silence, Haotian finally said, "Thank you for your hard work. I have asked Chang Geng to open the Zhoutian Star Dou array, so that the soldiers will rest first. They do not need to participate in the next battle. Tell the soldiers that if the Zhoutian Star Dou array is broken later, I will allow them to surrender."
