Chapter 818: Capturing the High Mountain
Chapter 818: Capturing the Mountain (Page 1/1)
Mao Wenlong was furious, and before the five hot air balloons reached the sky above Xiangjiang Island, two of them were killed first. The accident came too suddenly, which caught people off guard, but at the same time aroused Mao Wenlong's anger.
It should also be the previous step-by-step method, Mao Wenlong directly ordered that forty warships dock directly. And more than 30 hot air balloons in the fleet also took off at the same time, and the target was the high mountain in front of them.
Such a decision was very risky, but no one dissuaded Mao Wenlong, on the contrary, everyone agreed. The reason is simple, Yiren apparently already has the equipment to hit hot air balloons. If a small number of hot air balloons continue to be sent to reconnoitre, it will only be to deliver targets.
It is better to attack it directly in one go, occupy the high mountains in front, and use this as a foothold for the Dongjiang Army. Then depending on the situation, gradually find a way to advance into the depths of Koe Island.
Cheng Zuo asked for his life and was willing to act as a vanguard, and the head of the Chen family did not show weakness, and petitioned to let Chen Jiaerlang become the leading stormtrooper.
Mao Wenlong did not hesitate, and immediately agreed to the request of the Chen family patriarch, and said that if the Chen family behaved well this time. Five meritorious people from the Chen family will be promoted to enter the Dongjiang Army and serve as generals!
The patriarch of the Chen family trembled slightly with excitement when he heard this, and his clansmen were no exception, one by one, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, their eyes were red, and they vowed to take down the mountain in front of them.
Only when the Chen family truly enters the general class of the Dongjiang Army can the value of the Chen family truly be reflected. Only by entering the general class of the Dongjiang Army does it really mean that the Dongjiang Army accepts the Chen family. And not just a foreign feudal army that has been outcast, as it is now.
The patriarch of the Chen family said goodbye to Mao Wenlong happily, returned to his own fleet, gathered 3,000 soldiers of the Chen family, and began to speak: "This battle is related to whether our Chen family can integrate into the Dongjiang army. If anyone dares to retreat half a step when the fight starts, kill! ”
The five warships were merged, and the bow deck was joined into a large platform. Three thousand neatly arranged Chen family soldiers stood quietly on it, and after the Chen family patriarch's lecture was finished, a chorus of shouts rang out.
"Swear to kill the enemy, never take half a step back!"
The Chen family patriarch was very satisfied with the performance of the three thousand disciples in front of him, and their determination could be felt by the Chen family patriarch at this moment.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, and Chengzuo leads a thousand Dongjiang army elites as the vanguard. When the warship docked, it rushed up as soon as possible.
And the three thousand warriors of the Chen family who followed were not inferior, and the crowd was excited, with the determination to go and never return, and decided to dedicate their young lives for the Chen family.
"Kill!"
Cheng Zuo led the army to rush to the front, until he reached the halfway point of the mountain, and waited for the first wave of attacks from the Laiyi people.
"Bang ......"
A burst of muskets suddenly rang out among the sparse trees, and the black smoke rising into the air immediately revealed Yiren's hiding place.
Although the Dongjiang army suffered casualties, when Chengzuo discovered the enemy's traces, he immediately organized the Dongjiang army to start firing back with muskets. The sound of gunfire echoed through the forest for a long time.
The long-distance firefight, which gave the Chen Jiajun, who was full of enthusiasm and death, had no chance to perform, so he could only hide in the rear patiently, watching the Dongjiang army fight fiercely with the Yi people, but he couldn't help anything.
An arrow suddenly exploded in the sky above Yiren's hideout, and he was confused, not knowing what the Dongjiang Army was doing. More than 30 hot air balloons floated in the air, followed by fierce fire oil and gunpowder jars, which rained down.
The sound of explosions and the fierce flames that rose into the air immediately turned all the hideouts of the Yiren into a sea of fire. A fierce sea breeze followed, blowing the burning fire high up the mountain.
The gunfire of the Yiren has completely stopped, and occasionally the survivors of the Yiren have just escaped from the fire, but they are always cut off by the Dongjiang army who are staring at them.
Seeing this, the Chen family couldn't sit still anymore, they knew that if they waited any longer, any credit would be in vain, and they had nothing to do with it.
It's not terrible to die, it's terrible to be that you didn't make any war achievements. They don't even want their lives, what else do they have to fear.
"Kill!"
The three thousand warriors of the Chen family, under the leadership of their respective generals, also began to charge towards the mountain.
Without any suspense, the first battle of the Yiren ended in a great defeat, and as the fire spread to the mountain, the Yiren who were originally stationed on the top of the mountain also had to retreat.
After trying to get closer, the hot air balloon in the air did not encounter the attack of the previous giant crossbow, and began to gradually launch a fierce attack. For a time, the Yi people suffered heavy casualties, and they were even beaten to run around on the mountains.
The warriors of the Chen family, who arrived later, would not miss such a good opportunity to make a contribution. The three thousand people were like hungry wolves pounced on their food, rushing to kill the people.
In the chaos of the war, the heads of the Yi people became fragrant and sweet, and all the Yi people who were touched by the Chen family had no accident and all their heads were cut off and became the trophies of the Chen family.
With the assistance of a hot air balloon, the entire mountain near the sea was occupied by the Dongjiang Army and the Chen Jiajun in just two hours.
Mao Wenlong, who stayed at sea, saw the battle situation from the telescope and was very satisfied: "This Chen Jiajun does have two brushes, and it seems that killing the enemy is not inferior to the Dongjiang army." ”
"Thank you for your praise!" The patriarch of the Chen family had quietly come behind Mao Wenlong at some point, and at this moment, he just heard Mao Wenlong praising the warriors of the Chen family, so he implicitly accepted Mao Wenlong's kindness.
Mao Wenlong laughed: "Patriarch Chen doesn't have to be presumptuous, your Chen family's performance today is indeed heroic and extraordinary." It wasn't the general soldier who praised them just now, but the fact. ”
The patriarch of the Chen family accompanied the smiling face, then nodded implicitly, and then said no more. And Mao Wenlong also made a quick decision, ordered all the warships to dock, and then left some soldiers and horses to watch the warships, and the rest followed him up the mountain.
In order to ensure that the top of the mountain was not robbed by the Yi people, Mao Wenlong directly ordered to remove thirty artillery pieces from the warship and place them on the commanding heights of the mountain.
The smoke of gunfire dissipated, the fighting subsided, and it was almost dusk, and the Yiren did not move again after they retreated. The Dongjiang Army did not attack again, but was busy building fortifications under the orders of Mao Wenlong.
Cheng Zuo was covered in dust, there were spots of blood on his armor, his blackened face showed a mouthful of big white teeth, and he hurriedly said to Mao Wenlong: "Chief soldier, all our troops are deployed here, and our subordinates feel that it is inappropriate." ”
"What's wrong?" Mao Wenlong immediately asked.
"Xiangjiang is an island, surrounded by the sea, and people from the Yi or Fuso religions can escape from other places in the sea. His subordinates implored the commander-in-chief to send half of his troops to stay behind and patrol the sea, in order to prevent the enemy from escaping from the sea. Cheng Zuo said urgently.
