298, Iron Mountain Raid
The strength of the three armies fought against one Cao Shuai's department, and although our army had a slight advantage in quality, the disparity in quantity was too great. So this battle is not destined to be too easy to fight. So next, the key is to look at the terrain and the terrain distribution of Zhu Bajie's minions.
Iron Mountain is relatively high, so it is a watershed. A total of three rivers developed from Iron Mountain, which flow into the Pacific Ocean from the northeast, east, and southeast directions. One river is in the north of the mountain and two in the south of the mountain. In addition, there are many tributaries that originate in the Iron Mountains and flow into these three rivers. Therefore, in the area of Iron Mountain, a grid of rivers is naturally formed, and if you want to enter Iron Mountain by land, you must attack from Shanxi. Zhu Bajie's lair is in the densest part of the river. After all, Marshal Zhu Bajie Tianpeng went down to earth, and he still knows some about the art of war. The location of this lair is very well chosen, and anyone who tries to attack the lair directly will have to face his powerful water army.
In the end, I came to a conclusion, if I swaggered to suppress the bandits like this, with my troops, I would definitely not be able to defeat Zhu Bajie. Don't say it's me, I'm proud of the strength of the country, I'm afraid I may not be an opponent. After all, the geographical location of Zhu Bajie is really good, as long as you wait for work, it is a husband and a wife.
So before I send out the troops, I have to do one more thing. That is to go to Iga Valley. I have the Iga Valley Token in my hand, which I can use to command the Iga Valley Ninjas. At this stage, Igaya will cooperate with me in order to gain territory in Hokkaido.
It's also very easy to find Iga Valley, [Shengke] has already established a branch in Aolai, and when I inquired in the past, I knew the location of Iga Valley's branch here. Go to the branch to find their [General], pull out the token, and the general immediately expresses his willingness to obey orders. The [General] is the head of the branch of the Iga Valley, and he can mobilize the entire Iga Valley personnel of the Proud Rowa.
The task I gave to the general was to destroy all the Iron Mountain scouts and intelligence lines from the capital to the Iron Mountain within three days, in short, to make Zhu Bajie blind. The general gladly accepted the task. Because Iga Valley is also interested in Iron Mountain, he has been monitoring the situation on Iron Mountain's side. However, as I took over the mission, the general also understood the intention of my trip.
"General Xiong, if the expectation is correct, the general is planning to take the Iron Mountain. However, the purpose of Igaya's investment in Iron Mountain is also for Iron Mountain. If the general's trip is successful, my previous business in Iga Valley will be in vain. The general has to give us a way to compensate us. ”
I nodded: "That's as it should be." After the Iron Mountain is won, Iga Valley can buy 10% of the Iron Mountain production at cost price, how about it? ”
"It's not good, Issei is too little. With the role that Igaya played this time, it is absolutely fair to have two percent. ”
"That's half a percent. Let's make friends. ”
"Deal."
The wolf is a white-eyed wolf, but in the face of interests, it is not a loss to cooperate with the white-eyed wolf for the time being. At least this time, if Igaya doesn't make a move, I really won't be able to take Iron Mountain. Zhu Bajie is not an ordinary person, and it is not so easy to be taken down.
After three game days, the army set off. Sure enough, I trekked through mountains and rivers along the way, and I didn't encounter any harassment at all. Zhu Bajie's scouts and intelligence lines have been uprooted in Iga Valley, and at the same time, Shengke's intelligence lines have also penetrated into the depth of Iron Mountain, and the scouts of the Aolai National Forbidden Army are also very powerful, and they have investigated the garrisons around Zhu Bajie clearly. The army quietly bypassed Zhu Bajie's defense line, as if entering a no-man's land, and directly inserted into Zhu Bajie's lair. There, there will be only one road of troops guarding Zhu Bajie.
The time of the march reached two game days. In the end, the army has quietly disappeared in the mountains and forests near Zhu Bajie's lair. Next, our army will continue to bypass the defense force of Zhu Bajie's lair, directly break into the core of the lair, and strive to directly capture Zhu Bajie.
It is worthy of Marshal Tianpeng who went down to earth, and Zhu Bajie's defense is relatively good. The strength of one road was garrisoned in four directions, one in the southeast, one in the northwest, and one in the northwest, and each of them was twenty to forty miles away from the central army. You can come back at any time to support the Chinese army. And what our army has to do is to leave enough troops to block the return of these large armies and buy time for the breakthrough of the Chinese army.
The last chance is that in Zhu Bajie's Chinese army, the strength of each of the four divisions will be stationed one mile away from the core of the old nest, and only one division of troops will accompany Zhu Bajie. The main force of our army must divide the four surrounding divisions in the shortest possible time, and finally besiege a division in the core of the nest with superior forces, capture Zhu Bajie, capture the thief and capture the king.
My other chance of winning is that I have already recruited three reinforcement divisions in the three game days that I have been waiting in the capital, and this time I have brought them together. This means that the total strength of my army has actually reached fourteen. Although these people are not genuine forbidden troops, they are all elite combat power among officers and soldiers. After having the forbidden army, the strength of the forbidden army is actually almost the same.
So I already have an arrangement. The infantry of two reinforced battalions and one reinforced battalion of jungle archers in the main forbidden army will be the main force of this blockade and division. A reinforced battalion of infantry and a reinforced battalion of jungle archers were responsible for blocking the four corps on the periphery. The other reinforced battalion of infantry was responsible for blocking the four divisions in the inner encirclement. The strength of a reinforced division was responsible for receiving on the perimeter. The remaining main force of the Genuine Forbidden Army, except for the staff and the person who responded, the others will quickly rush through the gap of the four divisions in the inner circle and surround one division of Zhu Bajie's lair together with the other two reinforced divisions. Concentrate all the generals of our army and capture Zhu Bajie and other senior generals alive.
The arrangement has been decided, and the attack is launched. With the exception of the two reinforced battalions blocking the perimeter and a reinforced division responsible for the reception, the other armies moved together and launched a swift assault on the inner encirclement. And the strength of a reinforced battalion that blocked the inner encirclement rushed to the front. Since the attack was launched from four directions, the first reaction of the enemy army was to immediately meet the battle and try to block our army.
The blocking forces quickly held back the enemy, while the cavalry of the three reinforced posts immediately broke away and broke through behind the enemy from both sides. The rest of the forces followed the cavalry and made a detour together. The enemy of the four divisions saw that it was not good, and they could not care about the enemy in front of them, so they left a small number of troops behind the palace and quickly turned back to fight. Of course, the blocking reinforcements could not be blocked by them, and they also followed the army in a detour and rushed behind enemy lines.
At this time, the strength of our army, which was detouring behind the enemy, had already formed a huge scale. The enemy did not dare to make a mistake, so they had to put on a defensive posture first. And the blocking force also took advantage of this effort and successfully entered the position of blocking from behind the opponent. It also means that from this moment on, one of Zhu Bajie's divisions has been completely isolated.
The catapult was quickly set up. The catapults of the whole three reinforcement stations, with only one round of bombardment, made the cottage crumble. In another round, the walled gate and many buildings were destroyed. Originally, Zhu Bajie also put out jungle archers, trying to rely on long-range defense, but he couldn't withstand the catapult was too good, and he only hit ten **, which almost broke the position of the jungle archers. And by this time our army had already launched a charge. The main force of the charge is the naval army in the genuine forbidden army. Water battles can't be fought, so they can only be used as infantry. And the navy army is also very happy, after all, it is worth being happy if there is a battle. In terms of cavalry, the horse cavalry and platypus cavalry were not useful for the time being, but the lizard cavalry and monkey cavalry shone brightly.
The characteristic of the monkey cavalry is that it can go up where there is no water, and it can walk on the ground no matter what the terrain. The lizard cavalry, on the other hand, can rely on the lizard's epidermis to defend itself and ensure their foot strength. So instead they rushed ahead of the trolls. When the lizard cavalry and monkey cavalry were the first to rush through the gate that had been destroyed by catapults, it meant that Zhu Bajie had actually lost the battle. The swarming naval army has actually surpassed Zhu Bajie's strength. And as soon as the strength of the two reinforced divisions is increased, it will be completely caught in the urn.
In terms of the inner encirclement, the blocking troops formed a circle formation and made up their minds to strictly defend against it. The four divisions in the inner encirclement wanted to rush over to the rescue, but thinking of the thousands of troops and horses of our army just now, even if they rushed over, I am afraid it would be a drop in the bucket. The leading admiral was in such a trance that he had already seen what the catapult was doing in the lair. Then they saw the army rushing into the cottage. It would be stupid to rush forward at this time. Besides, it is still a problem to rush through the circle in front of you. In the end, the four generals decided to wait until the four corps in the rear arrived. I hope Zhu Bajie can hold on to that time.
But the four armies on the periphery were not having a good time at this time. The bush archers set up an ambush in the jungle and the infantry set up a position at the junction, and although they immediately returned to their aid as soon as they heard the movement, they were met with a resistance when they were exhausted from running. The jungle archers formed a curtain of arrows, and as long as they rushed forward, they were only shot down by a dense number of arrows, and the few people who finally rushed in front of them were also immediately chopped and chopped vegetables. But seeing that Zhu Bajie was in trouble, he couldn't help but rush. It's like a moth to a fire. Seeing that the strength of a battalion is gone. and the heart of the governor was dead. As a result, the four armies that came back from the periphery could only stop and wait for news from the front.
As they waited, the battle on the front line was nearing its end. Zhu Bajie has a set of soldiers that is right, but since ancient times, thieves have spared their lives. Seeing that he has been reduced to a lamb to the slaughter, his majestic momentum is gone. With the sound of surrender, there are more and more bandits who lay down their weapons. In the end, there were only 10,000 people left around Zhu Bajie.
At this time, I came out of the crowd: "Pig village master, don't resist." Aolai Kingdom must destroy you, and I must take Iron Mountain. Even if you are let go today, you will be attacked more and more. Besides, an excellent village owner like you, I am embarrassed to let you go, letting you go is equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain, and the price that General Ben spent in order to exterminate you is unimaginable. In a word, as long as the owner of the pig village is willing to surrender with the iron mountain, the general will use the best food in the world to entertain the owner of the pig village. The owner of the pig village can eat all the delicious things of the general's territory in the nine theaters. I don't know if the owner of the pig village is interested? ”
As I spoke, Zhu Bajie's saliva was dripping. He couldn't resist the temptation. Besides, now that the road is at the end of the road, it is already a choice of life and death. In the end, Zhu Bajie made up his mind and chose to surrender. A top literary figure has managed to get it.
