Chapter 2197: Vice-Commander and Weakness
?
To be honest, Xu Tui had been carefully on guard when the black chess piece moved. He was afraid that the black side would join forces to kill him again. Based on their current location, the black chariots and cannons could join forces to kill Xu Tui.
It was very likely that he would be attacked by the Muya Pope, Qiao An, and another top expert of the Spiritual Race.
The Black Cannon of the Spiritual Race would either be Tu Hou or Xu Zhijia. He did not have the confidence to win against them as they were all very powerful Nebula Realm experts.
This was especially so when he had forcefully killed the purple-robed Bishop of the Muyas, Milolis. Xu Tui had consumed a lot of energy. He had consumed 30% of his mind power. Xu Tui only had less than 60% of his mind power left.
Therefore, Xu Tui had already pinched the mind power Origin Crystal in his palm. He began to quickly absorb and recover. At the same time, he prepared for battle.
Xu Tui was so nervous. However, when the black chess pieces started to take action, he smiled in surprise.
The black chess pieces avoided him. Even the Pope of the Muya people, Qiao An, who had fused with the black chariots, had attacked the bank of the red team. It could be considered an alliance with the black pawns of the Muyas.
The other black minister also retreated, completely avoiding the red soldier.
For a moment, Xu Tui's position as a ferocious red soldier became blank. On the other side, the Spiritual Race and the Great Xi Clan began to charge forward. However, because Xu Tui had displayed the ability to climb mountains and kill, the chess pieces on the left of the black team also began to deliberately avoid the possible killing of the red soldiers.
Therefore, the red soldiers would not be able to kill them even if they wanted to. After all, there were rules to the actions of the chess pieces. As a result, the black side's counterattack against the red side became much weaker.
This was because several chess pieces were moving to avoid the ferocious red soldiers and did not participate in the attack.
In the end, the Great Xi Clan's Black Chariot and the Spiritual Race's Cannon and Horse cooperated with the two black pawns crossing the river and acted at the same time. They called to the red team's cannon and horse. To be cautious, they were both two against one. The benefits of Ullr mobilizing most of the chess pieces to the left flank appeared now. Facing the shouts of the Spiritual Race, the Red Team could form a three-part defense.
Then, Ullr's face darkened. The consequence of the three-pronged defense was that the Red Team suffered heavy losses. It was mainly because the elites were not proportional. Among the chess pieces, there were at least 100 Nine Satellites from the black side. On the red side, there were 20 of them.
The Stone Bearer Ghost King, the Three-Eyed Ghost King, and the two Ghost Commanders died on the spot. On the red side, they threw away four chess pieces at once. One cannon, one horse, and two ministers!
In an instant, the advantage that the ferocious red soldiers had displayed was almost lost. Of course, the deaths of the 1,200 ghost soldiers led by the two Ghost Kings and the two Ghost Commanders were not in vain.
Black Chariot of the Great Xi Race belonged to the commander-in-chief of the Great Xi Race, Lu Lei. Half of the elites under him fought. More than 20% of the elites of the Spiritual Race died in battle.
Basically, the Red Team could barely exchange three for one. The difference was huge. If this situation continued, Red Marshal Ullr would become an empty commander in less than two to three rounds. At that time, the Red Team would definitely lose.
When it was the red team's turn to carry out the fourth round of operations, Red Marshal Ullr fell into deep thought. How could he break the situation?
On the other hand, the Great Xi Race and the Spiritual Race fell into an excited state after a short exchange.
He had gained something!
Previously, the chess pieces that the three races had killed were only soldiers. This time, the cannon and horse that they had killed had benefited the Great Xi Race and the Spiritual Race greatly.
Whether it was the gains from the chess pieces or the most precious things, they made the chess master extremely excited.
The Great Xi Race's Black Chariot and the Spiritual Race's Cannon and Horse had all obtained the mobility of the other chess pieces.
Xu Tui also frowned at this situation. If the black chess pieces continued to avoid him, the situation of the red chess pieces would really be worrying.
After all, the elite level of the other chess pieces on the red side was too low. Xu Tui had only relied on capturing the leader.
Just as Xu Tui was deep in thought, Ullr's voice suddenly entered the red soldiers' ears. "Ghost Commander Liu, I want to use you as the vanguard. The other main chess masters will circle around you and form a defense with you. Then, we'll kill our way to the black general. How about that?"
Ullr's voice had no intention of giving any orders. It was all for discussion.
Clearly, he had already realized the difference in the Red Soldiers, much less used the command rights of the Red Marshal. He was treating the Red Soldiers as people on the same level as him.
"Sure!"
Xu Tui quickly agreed to the request. Not to mention anything else, the Red Tiger Ghost King, the Wolf Fang Ghost King, and the others had essentially been subdued by Xu Tui with the Taishan Prefecture Lord Seal. They were essentially his subordinates. It was the same for the other Nine Satellites Ghost Commanders.
If he was killed and his most precious item was taken away, his strength would decrease drastically. Then, Xu Tui would be the one to lose in the end.
Just as Xu Tui agreed, Judge Liu's voice sounded in Xu Tui's mind. "Sir, we can actually ask for command rights." After saying that, Judge Liu explained further, "Now, Red Tiger, Wolf Fang, and the others have to listen to Ghost Emperor Ullr's orders on the surface. If you request it, you should be able to obtain their command. That way, it will be more convenient to cooperate with you," Judge Liu said.
Xu Tui was stunned. He thought about this suggestion. It seemed possible. To be honest, Ullr's command level was not bad. However, no matter what, it was really convenient for Xu Tui to command as he pleased.
Otherwise, Xu Tui would have to inform Ullr of his intentions. Ullr would have to weigh the pros and cons before giving command. If anything went wrong, it might be fatal to Xu Tui.
"I can act according to your strategy, but I want command," Xu Tui suddenly added. Ullr was stunned. "Command? Tell me the action plan you want. I will definitely give the order to command them to place their pieces."
"I'm afraid that you'll trick me." Xu Tui thought of a very powerful reason.
"How can that be? Even if it's for the final victory, I won't trick you," Ullr said.
"As you said, I am a member of the Red Team. I will definitely fight to the death for the Red Team's final victory. If the Red Team loses in the end, they will still leave me. Therefore, I need command! I only want the command line at the frontline. Just watch me lead the troops and charge," Xu Tui said.
Ullr was a little anxious. There were still 20 seconds left on the countdown. If this continued, he would either be judged to be on standby or move around. It was not in his interest.
"The two advisors are your personal guards. I won't move them. I want full command of the rest," Xu Tui emphasized again.
"Okay!" This time, Ullr agreed readily. "There are still 15 seconds. Set up immediately! You can also tell me directly about the command of the chess pieces in my hand. I will cooperate
with you."
Ullr agreed readily. What he wanted and considered was very simple. The Red Marshal is him. If the final victory belonged to the Red Team, then the greatest reward would be him. Even if this ferocious red soldier obtained a portion of the reward, he would definitely not be able to compare to a red marshal like him. He ate meat, so he had to let someone drink soup, right? As long as he was the Red Marshal, he would occupy the final vital point. So what if he gave the ferocious red soldiers the command of the other chess pieces? Soon, Ullr gave the remaining chess pieces of the Red Team an order as the Red Marshal, telling them to completely listen to the commands of the Red Soldiers.
Next, the command of the frontline troops would be taken over by the Red Soldiers.
Ullr described this description very clearly. It was conveyed to all the red chess pieces except the two chess pieces beside him. However, an unexpected scene happened at this moment.
A rule information surged into the minds of all the red chess pieces.
"The Red Marshal Chess Master has temporarily handed over the command of the frontline to the Huben Red Soldiers. According to the rules of the Heavenly River Chessboard, the Huben Red Soldiers will become the vice-commander of the Red Team and have a portion of the rights to be the commander-in-chief."
Ullr was stunned when this information surged in. Xu Tui was also stunned. Was there such a rule? It was also at this moment that Xu Tui and Ullr realized a very important problem. Where did the basic rules of the battlefield of the Heavenly River Chessboard come from?
A real battlefield!
According to the current situation, the rules of the battlefield of the Heavenly River
Chessboard should come from the real battlefield. This was because if the commander-in- chief did this on the real battlefield, he would be appointed as the deputy commander-in- chief. He might even be taken over.
At this moment, Ullr regretted his decision. He wanted to withdraw the order, but he realized that he could not. The message given to him by the Heavenly River Chessboard was that he
could only try to retract the order in the next round.
Xu Tui was thinking about another question. Judging from the situation, was there a possibility of him stealing the limelight? He was pleasantly surprised. He immediately began to command the remaining red chess pieces to move, including himself.
Xu Tui did not call for a kill. He gathered all the red chess pieces in the middle.
Xu Tui himself had also moved to the middle lane. According to the rules of the remaining chess pieces, they formed a defensive formation with the ferocious red soldiers as the center. No matter which chess piece the black side wanted to kill, Xu Tui, a red soldier, could join
forces to defend.
Of course, this was also under the premise that he had fused the mobility rules of Cannon and Horse. Otherwise, he would not be able to do it. The fourth round of the red team's operation ended. The fourth round of the black team began.
But Lu Qi was a little dumbfounded. This was not going to be easy. Next, no matter which chess piece was called to kill, the ferocious red soldiers would participate. The black side immediately became restrained. Actually, this was also the advantage of the Red Team's unified command.
On the other hand, the black side was a three-way giant. They quickly discussed and studied
it.
The problem was that there was a time limit to the chess arrangement of the Heavenly River Chessboard. The chess piece that the general forcefully commanded was 60 seconds, and the other chess pieces could move freely for 60 seconds.
A total of 120 seconds.
In 120 seconds, it was really difficult for the Muyas, the Spiritual Race, and the Great Xi Clan to
form a unified opinion under the infighting between them.
As time passed, they had to play chess. As soon as it moved, it revealed a flaw.
