The Sacred Ding - Chapter 1054
Jingshan mountain, which stretches for three thousand miles, is located at the intersection of Jingjun county and Chu county. It is adjacent to Canghu Lake in the south. Jingjiang River originates from Jingshan mountain and enters Wantao river through Canghu lake.
In late March, blue whale class and silver shark class armored warships swam upstream from Jingjiang River, sailed into the lake, occupied Laojun Mountain on the Northeast Bank of the lake, and established a water camp.
Laojun Mountain is also the South Camp of the Beiling army at the east foot of Jingshan mountain. In addition to the warships and boats that block out the sun by the water camp, the land camp is undulating, stretching more than 60 miles from north to south, with 2 million troops and horses stationed. At the same time, a city controlling Jingshan mountain and Shouhu lake is built here.
Beiying is located at the north foot of Jingshan mountain, with 1.8 million elite.
In addition, there are 1.8 million troops scattered in several dilapidated cities destroyed by magic soldiers in the west of Jingshan mountain. While rebuilding the cities and gathering scattered refugees to reclaim wasteland and store seeds, they guard against the possibility that magic soldiers may cross Jingshan mountain and flee to the East Bank of the falling star sea.
Jingshan mountain stretches for three thousand miles. Although it can not be compared with xiongshan mountains and rivers that often stretch tens of thousands of miles, such as Zibai mountain range, Wanxian mountain range, Shiwei mountain range, Dayan mountain, Hengduan Mountain range and Yunling mountain, the terrain is also extremely steep. With strange peaks, dangerous mountains, deep forests and quiet valleys, it is an easy place to defend and difficult to attack, which is unfavorable to the Tianji chariot of Beiling army, It is also disadvantageous for the Beiling army to lay out its superior forces.
More importantly, after the demon family launched the winter offensive, millions of clans and ordinary people who stayed nearby and did not evacuate to the North fled into Jingshan from the surrounding prefectures and counties to avoid the magic robbery. At this time, they all fell into the hands of the West Road magic soldiers and became blood food and consumables of the blood refining magic array.
In addition, millions of miscellaneous demons have been driven into Jingshan, and the West Road demon soldiers are not worried about the supply problem until the next winter.
On the South Bank of Wantao River, millions of magic soldiers, led by ghost Xi, set out from Wuhou mountain, bypassed Yinhun mountain and continued to move westward. In late March, the outpost soldiers and horses had entered the Maozhen mountain range on the other side of Jingshan and Changhu Lake to establish a stronghold.
Last year, Chen Hai once hoped that Anxi defense force and Vietnamese North Korean reinforcements could resolutely enter Maozhen mountains to establish a defense line.
In that case, the south of Jingshan and Changhu is restrained by the elite of millions of Anxi army, which means that when the magic soldiers launch the winter offensive, they absolutely dare not easily enter the area west of Jingshan.
Even if the demon clan crossed the Wantao river last winter and launched a large-scale offensive, it is inevitable, but the ordinary people west of Jingshan still have a chance to escape, and at least twenty or thirty million people will die less in the whole winter.
Either LV and the Vietnamese did not think that the Beiling army could easily carry the demon family’s winter offensive, or LV and the Vietnamese wanted to weaken the residual evil forces of Liuyang Palace by magic soldiers, or LV and the Vietnamese themselves did not have the courage to resist the magic soldiers. The Anxi defense army and the Vietnamese aid army not only did not push the defense line to Maozhen mountain last year, Now let the demon family build a strong stronghold in Maozhen mountain range and gather a large number of troops.
The intention of the demon clan to gather troops and horses to Maozhen mountain range is also obvious. In addition to further threatening and raiding Anxi Prefecture and the southwest of Beiling, it is obvious that they do not feel that Beiling army will wipe out the West Road demon soldiers before winter.
At this time, they gather in Maozhen mountains. When the next winter comes, they can gather three or four million magic soldiers to cross the river directly north, and they can rescue the magic soldiers on the West Road as soon as possible.
At the beginning, Qin Hushan, Wu Zhidong and others led 5.6 million northwest Qinwang troops at the West foot of Shiwei. Using the danger of mountains and rivers, they blocked the main force of Xuanyin Valley magic soldiers almost ten times their own in Suo Longxing for two and a half years.
The demon family has every reason to think that the West Road demon soldiers with 1.78 million elite soldiers can keep after winter by taking advantage of the mountains and rivers of Jingshan mountain.
Moreover, the demon clan has established a stronghold at the north foot of Maozhen mountain on the South Bank of Wantao river. It is only more than 3000 miles from the south foot of Jingshan mountain in the north. There, they can gather 20000 wing demon elites, and can fly across Wantao river at any time to reinforce the demon soldiers on the west road.
The calculation of the demon family is quite satisfactory. If the Beiling army still stays at the level of the three allied forces more than ten years ago, it is really impossible to annihilate the West Road demon soldiers who have completely retreated into Jingshan before winter. Even in winter, it is not qualified to fight in the ice and snow with elite demon soldiers of the same scale, but the Beiling army at this time has two concepts with the three allied forces more than ten years ago.
The area initially controlled by the magic soldiers on the west road is located north of the east foot of Jingshan mountain. Several blood refining magic arrays can only cover the mountains and valleys at the East and north foot of Jingshan mountain. Chen Hai directly uses the wind flame airship to send troops near Xiushi peak, the main peak of the middle foot.
Before the demons did not react, Chen Hai sent 200000 elite troops, 500 heavy bore guns with a range of about 100 Li and 50 four column devil killing arrays near Xiushi peak, directly reduced the living space of the West Road devil soldiers in Jingshan by half and occupied the commanding height of Jingshan, Restrict the elite wing demons of the demon family on the South Bank of Wantao River from entering Jingshan at will.
Then there is a mountain, a mountain hard to seize.
Heavy bore crossbow and six bore heavy loaded crossbow are only conducive to close combat. The storm fire scattered cluster arrows used in long-range combat have been improved. After each storm fire scattered cluster arrow is excited, the flame jet rolls hundreds of sharp and small gold spikes, which has considerable lethality to the elite magic soldiers below the magic school level within a radius of ten feet.
The initial offensive started from Xiushi peak and covered it with 500 heavy guns every day from Xiushi peak to the mountain and surrounding areas where magic soldiers were stationed. Almost tens of thousands of storm scattered cluster arrows were consumed every day.
Then, in the sword repair camp, with the assistance of the floating warships of the Tian and yuxu, tens of thousands of soldiers surrounded by the newly transformed Scorpio chariots, fought bloody battles with the demon family for every mountain peak and valley.
Scorpio chariot is actually a combination of traditional puppet animals and tracked Tianji chariot. Le Yi first created the prototype when he led the black Yan army.
Compared with the Tianji chariot, the eight giant mechanical feet protruding from the side cabin of the Scorpio chariot can be suitable for rapid climbing and tough operations in rugged areas. The casting is much more complex than the general heavy Tianji chariot, with a large staffing and easy damage. In the past, three or five hundred land tests were trial produced in Yanzhou and Tianying City, and there has been no condition for large-scale mass casting.
This is also mainly because in the past, Terrans were mainly defensive, and there was no urgent demand for Scorpio chariots.
However, based on the Tianji war equipment production capacity of Beiling Prefecture at this time, the casting of Scorpio chariots is quite complex, but at the same time, the chariot workshops in Tianying City, Wanxian city, Xinhai mausoleum and Lingzhou are started at the same time, and the monthly output is more than 300 or 400.
Chen Hai gathered more than three-quarters of the scorpion chariots produced by various chariot workshops every month to Jingshan for mountain warfare, so as to make up for the defect that the Terran soldiers could not form a large-scale array in the rugged mountains, and the close combat was far weaker than the magic soldiers and generals.
In addition to a large number of new Tianji weapons being put into the battlefield, hard battles have been fought one after another. Although the casualties of the Beiling army have always been relatively large, more will die. As a whole, the Beiling army is more determined to fight, and its fear of the demon clan has disappeared.
In May, the Beiling army launched an offensive against the Western magic soldiers from the East and North, completely forcing 1.6 million Western magic soldiers into Jingshan, and then carried out attacks and battles from the East and North.
The danger of the terrain only slowed down the attack speed of the Beiling army, but could not break the Beiling army’s will to fight.
At this time, the Beiling army had gathered more than five million troops and horses on the periphery of Jingshan mountain. Although no more than one million troops and horses could enter the depths of Jingshan mountain at the same time, there were a large number of wind flame airships in the army, and five million troops and horses could enter the front-line battlefield in turn.
Although the demon clan gathered more than 20000 elite winged demons on the South Bank of the Wantao River, and the battle bird camp of the Beiling army was weakened, leaving only more than 3000 battle birds and two floating warships, after April, in addition to the more than one million water divisions and elite Ma Bu army gathered along the cities on the North Bank of the Wantao River between hailing and Tianshui, under the command of nearly ten real kings such as Qin Hushan, Yuan Zhou, Yuan Yanxue and Qin Qian, The northern mausoleum army gathered in Jingshan mountain, led by Chen Hai, cangyu, Xi Tongguang, Jidu, Zhou Wanqing, Ning chaner and Cangyi, with as many as 30 people.
Among the Dragon army, the Jian Xiu Hu guard camp, which exists as the personal guard of Chen Hai, is mainly composed of the disciples in the later stage of biling territory, with the sword Xiu in Mingqiao territory and daodan territory as the backbone, and has also been expanded to 10000 people.
After the winter offensive, the air combat elite of the demon clan suffered heavy casualties and was weakened too much. At this time, there are only 20000 wing demon elite and more than 100 head demon Jiao. If they dare to break into the sky of Jingshan mountain, it is not much different from looking for death.
By the end of August, the loss of the magic soldiers on the west road was less than 800000, which was compressed near the Yuzhu peak, the main peak at the north foot. With Yuzhu peak as the center, almost all the peaks 200 miles away from the radius fell under the control of the Beiling army.
Considering the range of the heavy bore gun, the living space of the magic soldiers on the west road is actually compressed into a circular area with a radius of less than 100 Li centered on Yuzhu peak
Only by annihilating the main force of the demon soldiers can it weaken the strength of the demon clan. Therefore, no matter how difficult the conditions are, Chen Hai should organize the battle as much as possible.
On the eve of Chen Hai’s organization of the Beiling army to launch the final general attack on the magic soldiers on the West Road, Anxi Lu’s envoys crossed the Wantao river again and rushed to Jingshan camp to meet Chen Hai.
This time, in addition to the previous LV Gengshu, the son of the LV family, there was also LV Shang’s senior brother, the supreme elder of taiyanzong, and also the only Zhao Xiaozhi in Anxi who reached the peak of the sixth realm of heaven and half stepped into the third realm
