Chen Hai led the soldiers and horses of Yequ Mountain, and the first to raid was the Black Mountain Village, and after attacking the southern city gate, he fought a street battle with the thieves who defended the city for several days. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThis battle not only annihilated the 2,000 soldiers and horses left behind in the Black Mountain Village, but also almost demolished all the houses in the Black Mountain Walled City, and finally found a lot of treasures accumulated by the Black Mountain Kou in the cave secret room of the Inner Palace.

When Chen Hai and the others left the Black Mountain Village, they distributed a large amount of food and materials to the slaves, and even if there was a large amount of surplus, they were all transferred to the Moyue Lake more than a thousand miles away with the release of the slaves at this time.

In order to collect the necessary materials for the construction of the Exquisite City, the baggage battalion even remelted the six fine-wrought iron gates weighing more than 100,000 catties in the Black Mountain Village into iron ingots and transported them to Moyue Lake.

After chasing each other for six or seven days in the depths of the vast desert, the five thousand horse bandits in Guhushan Mountain were forced to retreat into the Black Mountain Village, which almost had a complete empty city on the city wall for them to occupy and defend.

At this time, it is already March of the seventy-sixth year of Emperor Yitian, the weather is not so cold, naturally don't think about being able to splash water to freeze the city gate hole, at this time the thieves don't seem to want to be sealed in the walled city, even if most of the main force retreats into the walled city to rest, there are more than 1,000 elites outside the south city tower to dismount and form a formation, it is clear that they want to borrow the terrain advantages of the south city tower, and they can deploy more elite archers in the city gate tower and the two wings of the city wall, and the elite horse thieves who form a formation under the city are each other's horns to jointly suppress the charge of the elite army.

The main force of the Montenegrin army was still four or five thousand miles away, and Chen Hai led the horse infantry army to camp ten miles away from the Nancheng Tower this time, and then calmly arranged the siege of the city.

The two thousand elite cavalry led by Fan Dachun were also exhausted at this time, and even dozens of people were exhausted to death in the depths of the vast desert, and there were not a few who were exhausted, but at this moment the whole army was extremely excited.

If you really fight in the depths of the vast desert, there is no favorable terrain like Shiyue Gorge, and the thieves are full of vigilance, all of them run faster than rabbits, and even if they can defeat the enemy in the end, it is difficult to annihilate more than half of the number of enemies, at this time, how can you not be excited to see five thousand thieves completely enter the urn?

The main force of the Ma Bu Army stared at the enemy's every move, Fan Dachun led two thousand elite horses to dismount and rest, and there was nothing to worry about, and his physical strength and spirit recovered quickly-Chen Hai also passed the news to Deng Tong'er and others who stayed behind in the Demon Moon Lake and supervised the construction of the New Essence Peerless City as soon as possible.

Moyue Lake is about 1,100 miles away from Black Mountain Village, and there are two pocket-sized oases in the middle that can be used as springboards.

Deng Tong'er learned that the Guhou bandit had been forced into the Black Mountain Cottage by the main force of the Elite Army, and immediately arranged a baggage battalion to transport a large number of cast iron parts of the catapult to Montenegro at the fastest speed, so that a number of catapults could be assembled in the fastest speed, which could form an effective threat and blow to the enemy in the walled city.

At this time, it was no longer a matter of exhausting hundreds of horses - Chen Hai also wanted Deng Tong'er to establish supply fortifications in the two pocket oases between Moyue Lake and Montenegro and in Shiyue Gorge and other three places, so as to facilitate the passage of supplies and men and horses in a more effective and orderly manner.

Shiyue Gorge is completely a stone mountain deep in the desert, there is no water source on the surface, it is extremely difficult to establish a supply base, Chen Hai asked Deng Tong'er to dig a deep well there, even if the deep well can not produce a water source, he can not hesitate to deploy a condensation rune array to gather rain and dew to store water.

Shiyue Gorge is the central point between Moyue Lake and Black Mountain Village, whether it is to use the resources of Moyue Lake to capture Black Mountain Village now, or to include Moyue Lake and Black Mountain Village in the future under the jurisdiction of Jingjue City, Shiyue Gorge is a strategic point.

There are a total of seventeen small and medium-sized oases in the vicinity of the Black Mountain Village, and there are also seventeen small and medium-sized tribes, all of whom have been forced to submit to the brutality and obscenity of the Black Mountain Kou.

In addition to the six tribes that have taken the initiative to join the Demon Moon Lake, there are also eleven small and medium-sized tribes who have not yet chosen to join the Essence City because they are afraid of the bloody revenge of the Black Mountain Kou, or because they are unwilling to give up the oasis with abundant water and grass in the world and move to the Demon Moon Lake, or because they have been deeply assimilated by the Black Mountain Kou.

But at this time, Chen Hai will no longer give these tribes more choices.

Chen Hai personally cast eleven exquisite school captain seals, and asked Guo Hongju to send people to the tribes:

The person who receives the seal of the captain is the captain clan of the Elite City, and it takes five days to send Jian Yong at a ratio of one out of ten, carrying the corresponding war horses, armor, grain and grass, to the periphery of the Black Mountain Village to participate in the siege of the city.

Chen Hai pretended to be the envoy of the state, at this time, he officially established Montenegro as the vice-city of Jingjue City, governed the surrounding 300 li land, refused to accept the clan of the school captain's seal, and limited the clan to move out of the oasis within 300 miles of Montenegro Village within half a month.

Either the clan will join the war, or the clan will move out, and there will be no choice to continue to stay and watch the situation and enjoy the benefits.

The previous successive victories of the elite army, coupled with Chen Hai's nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses to besiege the exhausted and sleepy horse thieves in the black mountain village, coupled with a little coercion and temptation, nine of the eleven clans almost did not hesitate, and accepted the seal of the elite captain sent by Chen Hai.

These nine clans have 70,000 people, and they sent Jian Yong at a ratio of one out of ten, carrying war horses, armor and food to participate in the battle outside the Black Mountain Village, plus Deng Tong'er sent 2,000 strong people from the Demon Moon Lake, Chen Hai could call the people and horses outside the Black Mountain Village, and after five days, there were more than 18,000 people.

A large amount of grain, iron, timber and other materials were also gathered in large quantities.

Chen Hai first arranged for 30 catapults to collapse the southern city tower, remove the shelters on the city wall, and then build dozens of building carts to approach the city wall from both wings, and built more than 1,000 archers to shoot with arrows and crossbows to force the thieves down from the city wall, and then advanced to the city gate step by step with a spear phalanx.

Guhou was a thief in the depths of the vast desert, and finally retreated into the Black Mountain Village, which was already a desperate choice. In addition to the necessary food, they mainly carried their precious belongings with them, and discarded some cumbersome bulk materials in the depths of the vast desert, and when they withdrew into the black mountain village, they found that the walled city was in a mess, and wanted to organize soldiers and horses to defend the city, even if there were hundreds of craftsmen and craftsmen with them, there was not enough wood and iron in the walled city for them to build defensive equipment.

Although most of the thieves wore fine armor, there were times when the elite soldiers were pressed together with iron nails or wires in a double row of wood, creating shields or partial carriage boards, which were more defensive than fine armor, and at the same time could protect a large number of archers, swords, and shields from approaching the walls.

The spear phalanx has great drawbacks, but the elite army occupies an absolute advantage in strength at this time, and the morale is extremely strong, so there is no need to worry about being attacked on the flanks.

The horse thieves were soon forced to retreat to the Black Mountain.

The spear phalanx is not conducive to street battles in complex terrain, and other sword and shield soldiers and archers are not as elite as horse thieves in street battles, Chen Hai is not in a hurry to send troops into the city to seize the alleys.

His main purpose is to first block the five thousand thieves in the city, and then build more catapults one after another, put them on the periphery of the walled city, and continuously throw stone bullets weighing hundreds or even hundreds of pounds into the walled city after hollowing out the inside and filling them with fire oil into the walled city, so that these five thousand horse thieves know that retreating into the black mountain village is their most wrong choice in the future.

The advantage of horse thieves is in the vast sand sea, attacking and defending the village is their fatal weakness, of course, in the past, the Xiqiang country seemed to be strong and strong, but in the depths of the vast sand sea, it is extremely difficult to organize large-scale siege warfare.

Equipped with a heavy catapult, it only takes twenty or thirty people to operate, and the firing range can be as far as two thousand steps away, while the ordinary human-type catapult, each one needs one or two hundred people to operate at the same time, in order to throw hundreds of pounds of stone projectiles to a thousand steps away, the limitations are too great.

The horse thieves trapped in the Black Mountain Village, although led by the Guhou Mountain Horse Thieves, only accounted for one-third of the troops, and the other nearly two-thirds of the horse thieves were all left-behind soldiers and horses from seven or eight other cottages.

They thought that if they gathered at Guhou Mountain, they would be safe and sound, who would have thought that the edge of the elite army would be so strong?

In this world, it has always been difficult to share wealth and wealth, and it is even more difficult to share hardships.

If these eight or nine horse thieves gathered in Guhushan Mountain, they could not be threatened by anything, and they could get along safely, but after abandoning Gufu and fleeing from Shandong, internal disputes and contradictions began to emerge, and at this time, they were besieged in the Black Mountain Village, and they had to bear a large number of stone bullets and flame bombardments at all times.

On the tenth day, someone secretly sent a secret letter, intending to cooperate with the outside and help the elite army to capture the Black Mountain Village.

Even if the horse thief who intends to surrender knows Deng Tong'er and Fan Dachun, it is difficult to tell whether this is a trap or not. Chen Hai ordered the letter of surrender to be put into the walled city, asking those generals who wanted to surrender to give up their soldiers and horses first, run over and surrender themselves, and accept the control of this side, and they did not need to cooperate with the outside to capture the Black Mountain Village;

In three days, a horse thief could no longer endure the stone bombardment and death threats all day, and took advantage of the short truce every morning to tear open the section of the city wall that was responsible for defending, and more than 200 people rushed out of the black mountain village to surrender and accept the reorganization.

This is like a big lake breaking open, and the first horse thieves go out of the city to surrender, which means that the morale of the remaining horse thieves has entered the final stage of collapse.

Soon there were thousands of horse thieves who surrendered out of the village through various ways, Chen Hai no longer hesitated at this time, with these surrendered horse thieves as the pioneers, Fan Dachun, Han Wendang, and Deng Tong'er led three thousand elites, followed by three gaps in the wall and officially entered the village, and carried out the final battle to seize the city......

For more than ten days, the catapult continued to bombard, and tens of thousands of stone bullets and flame bombs were mined and created into the black mountain village, although the casualties of the horse thieves may be thousands, but this kind of passive beating, and can not fight back, for the horse thieves who have no loyalty, the morale is almost collapsed.

In addition to the surrendered horse thieves, a total of 4,000 elites killed into the Black Mountain Village, the war can be described as devastating, many horse thieves do not have the courage to surrender, nor the will to resist, in the elite army into the Black Mountain Village, they chose to put down their armor and surrender.
