But if you think about it carefully, you will understand that this is just their wishful thinking.
"Wuyou, are you saying that they already have someone strong enough to break through the defense line?" Master Shenchen's eyes also became solemn.
There are about ten powerful demon gods. As long as the two allied forces do not encounter a life-and-death crisis, they will always have ten powerful gods stationed there just in case.
Previously, two of the three gods were injured and one died, so Xiao Wuyou and his group were dispatched to provide support in order to balance the fighting power of the gods.
Of course, one more or one less doesn't matter. The Western Region's defense line is not so easy to be breached.
Unless the other party is a more terrifying being than the God of Transformation.
Although he was not sure, Xiao Wuyou still looked directly into Master Shenchen's nervous gaze and said word by word: "That's right."
It is always better to say it in a positive way than to say it in a weak way.
The more nervous my good brothers are, the easier it will be to fool them later.
"You all have understood how to lay out this plan, right?" Xiao Wuyou spread his hands and looked at everyone with a smile.
Now that things have been said to this point, everyone's thoughts have become clear.
"Since the army is really approaching, and the other side has a suspected Lingxu existence, wouldn't it be controlled by others if we venture into the wilderness? We should focus on defense."
"Indeed. But what about setting up defenses?"
According to common sense, the focus should be on defending the central line of defense.
But right now, they have one last problem.
Everyone turned their attention to the little fox girl who had been stealing the cakes on the table.
Seeing the little fox girl holding a cake in her mouth with a confused and cute look on her face, Master Shen Chen couldn't help but sigh, and large golden words appeared around him.
"I suggest that the Demon King retreat to the rear to ensure his safety."
The little fox girl immediately got angry, swallowed the cake in one gulp, and jumped onto the table.
However, Xiao Wuyou was quick-witted and grabbed her by the tail and dragged her down again, then said to Shen Chen in a deep voice: "Absolutely not."
"If Momo leaves, we will lose."
Chapter 63 A Bad Premonition
---------------------
Xiao Wuyou is not joking.
Although he didn't want Momo to take any risks.
But the predictable scene itself is Momo's destiny. If Momo is not present, then no matter how these "supporting characters" act, they will end up in failure.
This is the hardest thing to explain.
Sure enough, after these words came out, although no one questioned it verbally, their expressions changed slightly. Some people even looked at Tushan Momo with a puzzled look on their faces.
Although Tushan Momo is the demon king, her cultivation is only at the level of a spirit, and she has no battle record worth mentioning. Of course, her presence can maximize the efficiency of the defense formation, but it also adds a weakness to the defense.
Originally, we only needed to guard the core of the central defense line, but now we have to take extra care of her. It can only be said that there are pros and cons.
But from the perspective of the prophecy, Momo must stay.
Xiao Wuyou exhaled and said solemnly: "I know it's hard for you to believe, but actually..."
"But in fact, this is the way to win."
Unexpectedly, when he was halfway through his words, the green snake took the initiative to speak.
"Master Momo, staying behind to guard the defense line will help the formation operate. Being the demon king at the front line will also help boost morale."
"Oh, yes." Xiao Wuyou responded, wondering how this green snake could be so smart.
"and......"
"Also, there is the central defense line in front and Momo is in the back. Although there are two places we need to defend, this will also help to share the demons' military strength so that they don't attack one place." Then, Su Lanyu smiled again and took over Xiao Wuyou's lines.
But this statement is a bit far-fetched.
"Your Majesty the Dragon King is too idealistic. If the Demon King is present, the demons will follow the trail. Their forces are dispersed, but don't we also have to divide our forces to protect the two key points?" Someone couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Wuyou was a little nervous at first, but when he saw that his junior sister's face was calm and quiet, he didn't say anything.
Xiaoyu is so smart and dares to say that. She must have her own plans.
"Do you think Brother Wuyou hasn't thought about this problem?" Unexpectedly, Xiaoyu threw the question back with just one sentence.
"What's the meaning?"
Xiao Wuyou actually wanted to ask the same question.
It’s not that I didn’t think about it, it’s that I didn’t think about it at all!
"If there is only one defensive point in the central defense line, the demons will surely attack it in groups. But if there are two defensive points, the demons will have to choose which one to attack. At that time, we can divert the tiger away from the mountain, concentrate our forces to deal with the demons in one place first, and then return to defend in time. Wouldn't that mean we can win?"
Su Lanyu's words stunned everyone and they applauded continuously.
Xiao Wuyou was naturally happy to have some free time and nodded with satisfaction.
"That is to say..."
"Lure the enemy deep into our territory and attack from the east while making a feint to the west!"
"We are not completely retreating, but using defense as an offense!"
The idea is very simple.
If both sides have equal combat power, neither side will have an advantage if they defend two key points at the same time.
However, if we can trick the enemy into concentrating their forces in the wrong direction, we can gain an advantage by taking advantage of the enemy's strength and our weakness, and then return to defend our weak points.
However, the difficulty with this method lies in how to deploy the troops.
For example, if we induce the enemy to concentrate their forces in a weak spot, but fail to hold out long enough, the defense line will still be breached. This plan is equivalent to shooting oneself in the foot.
Master Shenchen smiled and asked, "Then how should we allocate our forces and create a virtual and real situation?"
At this time, Su Lanyu turned her head, looked at Xiao Wuyou with a smile, and said modestly: "It depends on Brother Wuyou."
Xiao Wuyou was secretly happy, but when he heard his junior sister mention him again, he was stunned.
No, this plan was obviously yours, why do you have to leave it to me to decide?
"Although I can guess the general plan of Brother Wuyou, I am still powerless to do anything about the specific details." Su Lanyu seemed to be ashamed of herself and sighed.
But the people at the scene were already filled with a happy atmosphere.
"It's okay, it's okay. With Lord Xiao here, this plan will not go wrong!"
"That's right, we all listen to Master Xiao!"
"Master Xiao, if we take action, we will surely be able to annihilate the demons and let them know how powerful the coalition of our two tribes is!"
Amid the high morale, laughter and cheers of the entire audience, Xiao Wuyou was the only one who was silently sweating coldly.
Damn it, there must be no mistakes on Momo's side. Logically, we should give priority to protecting her side.
According to Junior Sister, we should lure the enemy's main force to the weakest point? But where is the weak point?! Isn't it the same as saying nothing after talking for so long?!
The happier everyone laughed, the more Xiao Wuyou had a bad feeling.
Finally, the group of people laughed enough, and Master Shenchen came to his senses and looked at him gently: "So, where do you think is more suitable as bait?"
The demon in the prophecy is coming for Momo, which means that Momo's attraction is greater than the central defense line. It is better to use this to make Momo the bait, and you only need to protect her closely.
Xiao Wuyou was about to speak, but he caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye that the little fox girl's eyes were dark and melancholy, her ears drooped, and she seemed to be worried about something.
This look startled him and he changed his mind instantly. Even if Tushan Momo herself didn't notice it, the intuition of the son of destiny and the magical power of the demon fox that seeks good fortune and avoids danger were superimposed together and played a role all the time.
So Xiao Wuyou said seriously: "I suggest that we use the central defense line as bait to lure the enemy deep into our territory and delay the enemy's main force."
"How about Momo leading a small number of elite troops to guard the southern defense line, and then rush to support the central defense line after the demons in the south are completely wiped out?"
Master Shen Chen was slightly stunned.
This answer was different from what Shen Chen expected. Logically speaking, the movable demon king should be used as bait to better delay the enemy's main force, right?
But Shen Chen changed his mind and felt that Xiao Wuyou must have his considerations.
Well, it's a risky move.
Wuyou had a lot of thoughts, and all the doubts in this meeting had been answered. It would be impolite to ask more questions.
"It's up to you." Master Shen Chen smiled kindly.
------------------------------------------
A few days later.
The demon army gathered as expected, and under the protection of the demonic energy, they slowly approached the Western Defense Line.
Most of the demons are fallen from the demon race. They are dominated by wildness and influenced by evil spirits. They are bloodthirsty and warlike. It is not an exaggeration to call them a fearless army.
However, the leader of this fearless army, the dark shadow of the demon who was revered as the Lord of Demons, stood in the air and frowned deeply.
In war, what matters is not bravery but strategy.
Five thousand years ago, the demon lord suffered a great loss. He was confident in his profound cultivation in the realm of refining emptiness, but was lured into a trap by the Vajra Sect and the demon clan. He was tragically sealed and lost 70% of his cultivation, leaving only this broken body.
Now, looking at the towering defense line in the distance, the Demon Lord always has a bad feeling.
Chapter 64: Trap
---------------
"Demon Lord, the Demon King Pill that you desire is right in front of you, what are you worried about?" The demon on the side saw that the Demon Lord was indifferent and became a little impatient.
The demon lord never looked back, but sighed and said sarcastically, "It's easy for you to say, but in your opinion, how should we send troops?"
Normally, it is certain that the coalition forces will gather their forces to defend the central defense line. But if the Demon King is present, they will definitely allocate a part of their forces to protect his safety.
We have received information that the Demon King has appeared before. The Demon Lord's real body is sealed behind the Western Region's defense line. Through the seal, we can sense the Demon King and confirm that the Demon King is indeed present.
But this feeling is too vague.
There are three key points in the Western Region’s defense line: north, south and center. No one knows where Tushan Momo is hiding.
If you take a wrong step and end up trapped in the enemy camp, the result will be more harm than good.
Whenever faced with such a choice, the Demon Lord would ask the left protector Horse-face for his opinion.
Now that Horse-Faced Demon is dead, the Demon Lord feels extremely regretful and thinks that he should not have allowed him to test Xiao Wuyou's true strength.
"Are you worried about Xiao Wuyou?" Tianmo couldn't help but laugh.
"Although Xiao Wuyou is very smart, he is still a human being, not a god. You don't need to be afraid of him. If you are worried about Xiao Wuyou, I can challenge him and lure him out for you. Then you can rest assured."
"Are you sure? There are no other threats besides Xiao Wuyou?" The Demon Lord was still a little worried.
"What if he has another ambush..."
The demon was ashamed: "You are still at the half-step refining stage, how can an ordinary spirit-transforming person hurt you?"
Tianmo was also very puzzled. In terms of the peak cultivation level of the Demon Lord, he should be above the Dragon King and the Qin Family's ancestor. Even if his strength was less than half of that now, he was still not something an ordinary god could defeat.
Moreover, he was very clear that the Demon Lord's power was different from that of other great masters of the Void Refining Realm, and even the two sons of destiny would find it difficult to threaten him.
He had originally been quite respectful of this incarnation of countless demons' fallen thoughts, but he had not expected that the other party would be so timid.
"You go first." The demon lord took a step back and stretched out his hand towards the western defense line.
The demon shook his head helplessly and led a group of demon vanguards into the void.
Then, in the empty space in the middle of the central defense line, countless terrifying monsters suddenly fell, like a rain of strange visions, crashing down brutally.
The demons were mixed in there, and the first spiritual consciousness instantly cleared the layout of the central defense line.
The two incarnations...are they the old monk and the six-tailed fox?
Huh, only two people? Bait? The Demon King is either in the north or in the south.
The demon's consciousness had just swept over when golden handprints and a demonic roar attacked from both sides, erupting with terrifying spiritual power that almost tore the sky apart.
But from the void, a three-headed monster bird and a strange meat ball covered with tentacles also flew out and blocked the attacks from both sides.
The demons also have gods, so the Heavenly Demon doesn’t even need to do it himself.
When Tianmo saw the two gods being suppressed under the city wall, he suddenly wanted to laugh.
Xiao Wuyou was indeed on guard against the demons attacking Tushan Momo. So he deliberately used the central defense line as bait to divert the demons' main force...
