The fortress is nothing but an optical illusion, merely to prevent the enemy soldiers from seeing through it when these formations appear.

After all, upon seeing a fortress, the enemy’s first reaction is naturally to worry about whether it contains guards, just like the towers that appeared before!

And this brief moment of hesitation is already enough for the formations within the fortress to activate automatically!

Flames, poisonous mist, and occasional ambushes, the entire battlefield is in utter chaos.

However, this chaos is exactly what Ye Luo desires!

Of course, things are far from over.

The commanders of the Commerce Alliance see their hundreds of thousands trapped, and naturally, they want to find a way to rescue them. Therefore, the sound of the Spirit Power Cannon erupts again, with the enemy planning to use it to shatter the flame barrier, paving the way for reinforcements!

But at that moment, a thunderous roar resounds from the rear and flanks of the Commerce Alliance!

Ao Long, leading twenty thousand men, has charged out from the flanks!

Who is Ao Long? Once his momentum erupts, how terrifying it is! Coupled with the fact that these twenty thousand received orders to create momentum from the outset, and they are all elite werewolf soldiers, it can be said that the momentum Ao Long and his men explode with at this moment is comparable to a hundred thousand elite!

Their orders were to charge as soon as the fire starts!

Originally, they thought the fire was just a signal, and they were to be the main force of the first wave!

But they never expected that when the fire started, it was actually the tail end of the battle, the point where the battle was about to end!

They were not the main force of the charge but the trump card to crush the enemy’s final morale!

Of course, if Ao Long and his men were the ultimate trump card.

Then the Demon Beast army led by Mo Lu and the Three-Tailed Wolf is akin to Mount Tai crushing the last strands of enemy morale!

As Ao Long and his men charged out, having circled around to the enemy’s rear, Mo Lu and the Three-Tailed Wolf finally led the demon beasts in an attack!

In an instant, the people of the Commerce Alliance felt completely surrounded!

"Report, sir, it’s not good, we’ve been completely surrounded by the enemy, a massive enemy force has appeared at our rear, numbering at least hundreds of thousands, and our supply line has completely collapsed!"

"Report, sir, it’s not good, not good, thousands of wolf clan troops have been discovered on the flanks, and the commander defending the flank has already been defeated!"

A series of bad news seemed to arrive simultaneously.

The commander of the Commerce Alliance was shocked and, after a moment, shouted with anger: "Damn Da Yue Empire, damn spies! The Third Prince has mobilized the werewolf army for support, and they’ve even drafted troops from within the country, yet these spies were completely unaware! Retreat, retreat quickly! If we don’t retreat, we’ll be stuck here!"

Retreat?

It’s undoubtedly the most foolish decision!

One must know, had this commander not been so cowardly and ordered to hold our ground, even with Ye Luo’s forces, it would have been impossible to defeat them!

But with the retreat order given, enemy morale utterly collapsed!

Seeing the chaotic retreat of the enemy, Ye Luo finally let out a deep breath!

Though Ye Luo believed his deployment was exquisite and flawless, even the perfect strategy is powerless against absolute strength.

In truth, Ye Luo was gambling, gambling on whether the enemy would collapse!

Fortunately, Ye Luo won!

With a swift gesture, Ye Luo finally dispatched the final one thousand troops!

This one thousand, initially reserved by Ye Luo as a backup, had not received any attack orders. They were stationed on the enemy’s other flank, but unlike Ao Long’s side, tasked to attack at the sign of fire, their orders were to await commands from the main tent, not attacking without orders!

Simply put, this was Ye Luo’s plan for a rear guard to sacrifice in the event of a failed strategy requiring retreat.

Of course, if the strategy succeeded, they would become the vanguard for collecting war spoils!

Another army charged!

It further convinced the members of the Commerce Alliance that they were surrounded!

Once they began to collapse, there was no stopping it.

The command structure of the Commerce Alliance crumbled in an instant, with some choosing to flee along the route they came, and others into the nearby forests!

Those who fled along the original route were somewhat fortunate, after all, Ye Luo didn’t have the manpower to block them from that direction.

But those who fled into the forests undoubtedly sought their own doom, for the beasts within the forest weren’t to be trifled with!

Abandoning armor and scattering strategic resources everywhere!

When Ye Luo and his men finally charged through the poison mist to pursue the tens of thousands of enemies before them, they found themselves unable to keep up.

The collection of spoils alone was enough to overwhelm the less than one hundred thousand wounded soldiers under Ye Luo!

One hundred thousand soldiers, alongside fifty thousand demon beasts, with some recruits, and most of the beasts freshly captured and unorganized!

Yet this army managed to defeat the claim of two million troops of the Commerce Alliance!

This battle, it’s simply a miracle!

The results achieved are rare in history!

Ye Luo, at the cost of under ten thousand soldiers and twenty thousand demon beasts dead or wounded, achieved the annihilation of over a million enemies!

And adding those consumed by beasts in the forest, the count would likely need to add tens of thousands more!

In reality, fewer than a fifth of the Commerce Alliance forces escaped!

The horrifying losses secured the Southern Territory from further military threats! 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Ye Luo’s battle quickly spread like a myth, honored as a War God by both the Commerce Alliance and Da Yue Empire’s people!

Indeed, with such terrifying results, the title of War God is well deserved!

And simultaneously, after this battle, the Southern Territory began a full-scale counterattack, gradually reclaiming lost lands!

Of course, this also meant that Ye Luo was about to switch battlefields once more!

For though enemies in the Western and Southern Territory had been expelled, those in the Eastern and Northern Territories remained!

Moreover, they were in critical condition!

Ye Luo reorganized the Southern Territory on one hand, while beginning to arrange for troop support to the Eastern Territory on the other.

Ye Luo still had no license for rest!

Feng Ling, with the Seven Blood Killers, served at Ye Luo’s side, while Princess Yu remained in Three Stone City. Nowadays, Princess Yu has practically become Ye Luo’s major steward, for Ye Luo now commands not only the Southern but also the Northern Territory!

In addition, several cities and tribes in Da Yue Empire’s heartland have sworn loyalty to Ye Luo!

To this point, most people wouldn’t consider it significant, nor would the Demon King or Demon Queen mind it.

In their hearts, the Third Prince was always their sole heir, their concern only being whether the Third Prince could gain the tribes’ acknowledgement.
