Chapter 925: The Two Tigers Fight for the Mountain

This 50-meter-wide bridge, with the middle point just on the mainstay, crosses the human gate, the god gate, and the ghost gate, and is also the framework of the three-in-one hub project.

But there is a difference, the entire bridge body, from south to north, is encased in a transparent culvert.

This is a special consideration of Maike, even if the entire bridge is buried under the water due to a monstrous flood here in the future, the function of the bridge can be used as usual without being affected in the slightest.

Mai Ke gave an order, and the army crossed the river in a mighty way.

After crossing the river, the army marched eastward along the slow ridge, and Mai Ke made contact with Wang Quanzhou as soon as possible.

Wang Quanzhou was the one who developed to the north when Funiu Mountain divided his troops into three roads, and he commanded 150,000 troops and was responsible for occupying Zhongtiao Mountain.

Soon locked the area where Wang Quanzhou was located, it turned out that he had basically swept the entire Zhongtiao Mountain, and now he was fighting to capture Shunwangping.

Mai Ke took Li Xiuchengde and others to immediately break away from the brigade and fly to the northeast.

As you fly, open the globe and get to know the Nakajo Mountains better.

Zhongtiao Mountain, one of the main mountain ranges in the south of Shanxi Province in China, runs from northeast to southwest, connects Taihang Mountain in the east, the Yellow River in the south, the Fenhe River valley in the northwest, and faces the Qinling Mountains across the Yellow River in the west.

Because it is located between the Qinling Mountains and Taihang, the mountain is long and narrow, so it is called Zhongtiao, with a total length of about 160 kilometers and a width of 10 to 15 kilometers. The highest peak is 2,300 meters above sea level in Yuanqu County, Lishan Shunwangping.

Zhongtiao Mountain shields the land of Luoyang, Tongguan and the Central Plains, guards Xi'an and the Great Northwest, and overlooks the southern and northern parts of Jin, and its strategic position is very important. The northern slope of the entire mountain range is steep, and the southern slope slopes gently, and the southern slope is exactly the path of the Heavenly Army's attack on Nakajo Mountain. If the Manchu army wanted to support, it could only come up from the northern slope, which was quite advantageous to the Celestial Army from a geographical aspect.

Zhongtiao Mountain can be divided into three sections according to the mountain situation: the eastern section is called Lishan, with Shunwangping being the highest, and the top of the mountain is in the form of a platform, and there is a meandering fault basin in between, and the western section is called Zhongtiao Mountain. Standing between the Yuncheng Basin and the Yellow River Valley, the main peak Xuehua Mountain, the altitude is about 2,000 meters; the middle section of the mountain is gentle, in the form of a step, there is a wide valley covered with three-toed horse laterite and loess in the saddle of the watershed near Zhangdian, which is formed by the uplift of the wide valley in the Tang County period.

To the north of Zhongtiao Mountain is the Yuncheng Basin, and there are seven prefectures and counties and 150 natural villages in the entire Zhongtiao Mountain area.

Zhongtiao Mountain and Taihang, Luliang, Taiyue three mountains are each other's horns, the strategic position is very important, for the past dynasties of soldiers must fight for the place.

This is also the reason why Mai Ke decided to seize Zhongtiao Mountain.

Wang Quanzhou's specific tasks. It is to completely occupy this area, and then to the north you can leap into the Taihang Mountain area, to the east into the Central Plains region, to the south and Funiu Mountain to form a line, and to the west you can enter the Guanzhong Plain.

Now, the Celestial Army has occupied Hanya, and with the cooperation of Nakajo Mountain, an iron and copper wall can be built. Break the Manchu Qing Dynasty's Sino-Western contact.

For the Celestial Army, Zhongtiao Mountain runs along the Yellow River. The mountain is long and narrow, and the whole mountain range divides the Central Plains and the northwest: it is the Yuncheng Basin on the north side, and the Central Plains on the south side, like a majestic natural gateway.

With this gateway in hand, the Celestial Army could easily enter these areas, and at the same time, it could also prohibit the enemy's entry.

When Mai Ke and others flew over Lishan Shunwangping. Seeing that the Heavenly Army was struggling to climb the mountain, one of the leading generals, the red rabbit horse under his crotch, and the heavenly halberd in his hand was Wang Quanzhou, the commander of the Heavenly Army Field Army!

The mountains are full of people. At a cursory glance, there are at least 20,000 people!

He can bring 150,000 people, but the others are gone?

Mai Ke quickly caught up with Wang Quanzhou, said hello, and then picked Wang Quanzhou up from his horse, placed him in the air attic on the back of the clouded leopard, and said to him: "Come, tell me how the situation is?"

"Can you finish the fight, now that Zhao Nasutu and I are fighting for this mountain, there will be heavy losses if we go at night!" Wang Quanzhou said urgently.

"Who is Sona Sutu?" asked Mai Ke. He had a list of Manchu administrations, but he didn't want to spend effort looking up.

"He is the current governor of Shanxi in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, with strong martial arts and firm will! Ever since I jumped into Zhongtiao Mountain, he has been fighting against me, although in the end, all the prefectures and county capitals were captured by me, along with those nearby villages, but I also suffered a great loss! Now he is from the northern foot of Shunwangping, and I am from the southern foot of Shunwangping, all of them are striving to reach the peak first!" Wang Quanzhou introduced.

"Who's ahead now?" Mai Ke was also anxious when he heard this.

"Now there is no distinction between up and down! The mountains at the northern foot of the country are steep, but the distance is short; the slope at the southern foot of our country is gentle, but the distance is long! The soldiers of the Tian army are all hard-working and tenacious; and their mountain soldiers are also very powerful, not only good at climbing mountains, but also proficient in the fighting techniques of mountain warfare! So in the end, they rely on willpower to fight!"

"Okay, you go down and continue to supervise, I'll go north to see this governor!"

After Mai Ke finished speaking, he put Quanzhou back on the horse's back, and then noticed that next to the horse, there was a clouded leopard with him.

Mai Ke's mount, the old clouded leopard, was communicating with it in beast language, and Mai Ke listened to it for a while, only to know that the two were father and son.

Mai Ke then remembered that he gave Wang Quanzhou and the other four people a clouded leopard each.

After letting go of Quanzhou, Mai Ke immediately got up and asked the clouded leopard in a gap: "How is your son?"

"Alas! Don't mention it, it's competing with that red rabbit horse! It said that it must defeat the red rabbit horse, so that Wang Quanzhou will give him more opportunities to fight! Now most of the time, he rides the red rabbit horse to fight! Also, it has never been to the sky once, and it also wants to fly in the sky, and it wants to be on par with her father and me, so why can't it fly? Is it because of its young age?"

Mai Ke was stunned, there are still so many ideological problems? Some of them are really difficult to solve, such as the problem of flying in the sky! As for riding a red rabbit in a war, it should be a love for it.

Mai Ke agreed on the spot that he would have the opportunity to talk to it in person next time.

Flying from the front of the mountain to the back of the mountain, it didn't take long for Mai Ke to reach the north slope of Shunwangping, only to see a mottled crowd struggling to climb the mountain, and the number of people was much more than that of the heavenly army!

Not only were there a large number of people, but they were also dappled in color, not only in clothing, but also in flags, all of which were of different colors.

Mai Ke took a closer look, and most of the clothes were black, gray, and earthy yellow; the flags would have all kinds of colors, not only all kinds of colors, colorful, but also the words on the flags, probably surnames, the most of which were "Yan".

When did the Qing soldiers get so much help?

Mai Ke was a little confused.

I contacted Wang Quanzhou and asked him what was going on.

Mai Ke smiled helplessly.

He said there were two reasons.

The first reason is that the imperial court's order to cut off the household has caused many families to form groups to participate in the war. About half of them are the townsmen of these families.

The second reason is actually caused by the Celestial Army. The Heavenly Army captured seven prefectures and counties, one hundred and fifty natural villages, and although most of the armies of the defenders and landlords were solved on the spot, many escaped.

These fleeing enemies were armed, and with nowhere to go, they all gathered around the governor, and although they were not taken seriously, it was better than being homeless, and many of them wanted revenge!

After all, many of their family members, relatives and friends were wiped out by the Heavenly Army!

In this way, a phenomenon of opposite development was formed: the more the Heavenly Army attacked, the fewer people it fought, while the Qing Army fought more and more.

Let's take these miscellaneous cards of the Qing army attacking the mountain as an example, it has grown to 60,000! Only one person is riding a horse with a gun, leading a team of iron cavalry to rush to the front, getting closer and closer to the mountain.

At this moment, he stood on his horse's feet, faced the Qing army and villagers who climbed up, and shouted loudly: "Life and death, here is one move! The first to rush up the mountain will be promoted to a thousand generals! Kill one enemy and reward 100 silver vehicles!"

The speed at which everyone climbed the mountain was significantly faster!

He then continued: "My words count! Meritorious service will be rewarded! But if anyone dares to hold back and run away, then blame me for being ruthless and will not be spared!"

Then he turned his horse's head around and flew after the first group.

He wouldn't spend too much time dealing with these remnants of the defeated army, and behind everyone, there was a team of Tsing Yi, who were expressionlessly joining the troops behind the palace, only one step behind them.

Their acceleration is very bad for Mai Ke!

He could see that the Celestial Army on the southern slope was still some distance away, at least five minutes later than the Qing Army!

These five minutes are usually nothing, but at this time, it will be fatal!

If the enemy occupies the top of the mountain first, these five minutes are at least 5,000 lives!

So, he spoke to Wang Quanzhou and shouted: "The Qing army will reach the top of the mountain in five minutes, you will run and climb the mountain for me! I will resist for a while!"

Now Mai Ke regretted not taking his hundred and eighty guards with him.

It's useless to regret it now, he shot the clouded leopard, and shot at the top of the mountain like an arrow from a leopard to a person.

Mai Ke is fast, that Zhao Nasutu is faster, I saw that the black horse he sat down on was like a whirlwind, flying up, and he stepped on the peak a millimeter earlier than Mai Ke!

Zhao Nasutu looked around, there was no one, and he couldn't help laughing: "Oh hahaha, I won! Boys! ...... quickly."

Unexpectedly, Le Ji was sad, and a loud "bang" sounded from his head!

The huge impact made him dizzy for a while, and the black dragon horse, which was his mount, also staggered, and returned and fell off the peak platform.

Zhao Nasutu was shocked, a python dragon turned over, and the horse came up again, who was it? Why was it missing?

Zhao Nasutu was surprised, and Mai Ke was also surprised, this sudden attack with a hidden weapon couldn't help him?

Fortunately, although the enemy was not killed, at least the deterrent effect was mentioned, and although the enemy general came up again, he just stood on the edge of the lawn and did not dare to rashly occupy the whole flat, so that at least the heavenly army could come up and not be suppressed by the enemy under the lawn.

At this time, the Qing army rushed up with one hundred and eighty people, shouting and rushing over!

Mai Ke saw that Wang Quanzhou and the others had not yet arrived, so he immediately made a decision, moved with both hands, one hand of fire element, and the other hand of water element, and threw it out!

In an instant, the enemy tasted the wonderful taste of ice and fire!

A fire dragon sweeps from east to west, and a water dragon sweeps from west to east.
