The painter's ability to set up formations is too strong and can easily arouse suspicion. There are usually not such strong formation masters among mercenaries.
If they find out that there are such powerful formation masters here later, King Zhennan may send powerful formation masters to deal with it next time.
The formations deployed by these people may not be powerful enough, but there is no problem in deploying more to play a delaying role.
Ye Liuyun and Cui Daoran also confirmed the retreat route, and then Cui Daoran prepared for the battle, while Ye Liuyun took several women to set up the rune formation.
Ye Liuyun also took action himself. Although he hadn't arranged the formation for a long time, he was only a little slower.
He and Xiao Wanrong also deliberately let their guard down, not arranging the power of the formation to be too strong, just keeping it at a level similar to that of a few women.
It's just that they deployed a large number of formations with different sizes and functions, covering an area of ​​thousands of miles in radius.
Half a day later, while Ye Liuyun and the others were still setting up their formations, the 10,000 baits sent by Cheng Dingfeng had already arrived.
He let the other women continue, while he paid attention to the five powerful martial saints in the opposing army.
"If these five martial saints are captured at once, they will never dare to divide their forces again!"
After thinking about it, he decided to only capture two this time and let three go, letting them think that he still had the strength to fight again.
As soon as the battle began, five martial saints from each side started fighting.
At the same time, Cheng Dingfeng's 90,000 troops and Qin Fengzhao's 100,000 troops immediately set off and rushed here at full speed.
Ye Liuyun also took action immediately, without using the power of time, and directly launched a spiritual cross-air attack.
The divine soul and red lotus karma fire suddenly appeared in the sea of ​​consciousness of a martial saint, burning the divine consciousness in his defensive treasures and planting a slave mark on him first.
Then the scene immediately turned into six versus four, with Ye Liuyun's side gaining the upper hand.
There was also a martial saint who was injured by someone controlled by Ye Liuyungang, and had almost no power to fight anymore.
"Quickly retreat!"
The Martial Saint on the opposite side did not dare to fight and immediately withdrew. However, the injured Martial Saint did not escape and was directly captured alive by Ye Liuyun, the Martial Saint.
Ye Liuyun directly planted a slave mark on him and asked him to return to the cave world to speed up his recovery.
As soon as Wu Sheng left, Cui Daoran immediately led 20,000 soldiers to kill him. After killing nearly 3,000 soldiers of the opponent, he immediately retreated.
Of course the other party will not let them go and will bite them tightly.
At this moment, Ye Shuangdao and Ye Jinyuan each came out with 10,000 people, let Cui Daoran's 20,000 people pass, and started fighting fiercely with the other side's soldiers.
Ye Shuangdao and Ye Jinyuan also took turns resisting, fighting and retreating at the same time, but the soldiers on the other side persisted in clinging to them.
The soldiers on the other side also knew their mission, so they were fighting with the determination to die. Their combat effectiveness was much improved than before.
Later, as the fighting time approached an hour, Ye Liuyun's consciousness could already see Cheng Dingfeng's army coming towards here at full speed.
They did not send Martial Saints to kill them first, but gathered the remaining eight Martial Saints together to avoid being defeated by Ye Liuyun one by one.
Of the 10,000 bait soldiers, there were now less than 4,000 left, but they were still chasing Ye Shuangdao and Ye Jinyuan.
But suddenly, the team of Ye Shuangdao and Ye Jinyuan suddenly stopped, turned around and went back to fight.
At this time, Cui Daoran's 20,000 people also came from both wings and began the final encirclement and suppression of them.
Cheng Dingfeng, who was on the way, also knew that the 10,000 soldiers would definitely not be able to escape, so he could only urge the army to advance as quickly as possible.
His consciousness could see the situation on the battlefield at this moment, and he could see the soldiers being surrounded and suppressed, falling one by one.
He was still thinking silently in his heart: "Your sacrifice was not in vain, it bought us enough time. I will kill all these mercenaries to avenge you."
He estimated that after all these soldiers were killed, the distance between them and the Wolfhounds might be about half an hour.
They will definitely not be able to escape from this distance. When the time comes, they can send a group of cavalry to intercept them, and they can stop them at any time.
The time was indeed about the same as Cheng Dingfeng expected. Those decoy soldiers fought desperately, but Cui Daoran did not let the soldiers attack too hard in order to reduce casualties.
When the battle finally ended, the distance between them and Cheng Dingfeng's army was only about half an hour.
At this distance, soldiers from both sides who are not too low in level can clearly see the strength of the other side.
"withdraw!"
After the battle, Cui Daoran didn't have time to clean the battlefield and ran away with the soldiers.
There was no time to even take into account the formation, so it seemed to be in disarray.
Cui Daoran deliberately let all the soldiers escape according to their own abilities and did not let them get into formation.
Cheng Dingfeng and the other commanders all looked at this with disdain.
"They are really a bunch of mercenaries, with so little discipline. Even if they are stronger individually, they are simply vulnerable to us."
All of them thought that these mercenaries were just strong and fast. If they really fought, they could be easily destroyed.
In the distance, Ye Liuyun and several women also stopped, preparing to activate the formation.
Half an hour later, Cheng Dingfeng's army pursued them into the area where they had set up their formations, and all the formations they had arranged in advance were activated.
Cui Daoran also released the battleship after escaping from the formation area and asked the soldiers to board the battleship to evacuate.
Once they board the battleship and drive away, the army behind them will no longer be able to catch up with them.
Cheng Dingfeng immediately sent a group of cavalry to pursue them first. However, they were immediately trapped by the formation and attacked by the formation.
At the same time, Cheng Dingfeng's army continued to fall into the formation, causing their advance to come to a halt.
"Lord Commander, if we continue like this we may suffer heavy casualties. It's better to stop the army temporarily and break the formation first!"
A deputy general suggested to Cheng Dingfeng.
But Cheng Dingfeng said: "If we stop now, they will really run away. The 10,000 soldiers before us did not die in vain!
I don’t believe how many formations a group of mercenaries can create with so many formation mages in their hands! The whole army continues to rush forward for me, and when they encounter a formation, they all attack together to break it with force!"
"Yes!" The deputy general agreed immediately and sent the order down.
So after the front army encountered obstacles, the center army and the rear army continued to move forward from the left and right sides.
Unexpectedly, the Wolfhound Legion actually deployed formations over a large area, and they were also held back by the formations.
"Keep charging, with such a large area of ​​formation, there must not be much ahead!"
Cheng Dingfeng confidently led the army and continued to charge forward, attacking the formation as he advanced.
Some of those formations are phantom formations, and some are trapping formations, with attack powers of various attributes such as fire and ice.
There are also a few that combine multiple formations into one. Even if the people outside break through the formation, the people inside are almost dead.
Those formations were constantly being destroyed. Once the soldiers fell into the formation, they would attack from the inside and outside together. There was no need to analyze the formation holes, they were all broken with force.
