Chapter 1013: All parties join forces
A few hours later, the helicopter arrived in the city of Cangzhou and refueled. After that, Mikasha and Anielle left with Jiang Feng, and they flew to Europe in one of the helicopters.
Bane planned to go to Xichuan to meet Kaiding and Nia first, so he also bid farewell to Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng offered to send Bane by helicopter, but Bane refused, and he was content with only asking for a Maxima.
"Horses are not as fast as helicopters." Jiang Feng said.
"It's just for me, there's no need to use a helicopter. In addition, I plan to go to Xichuan along the border line of the Northern Underworld, mainly to see the terrain and prepare for the construction of the Great Wall in the future. ”
"Okay, then you're alone, you have to be careful."
"Thank you, farewell."
Bane rode away on horseback, with a dozen servings of compressed food in his bag and five or six bottles of drinking water, enough for the journey.
Now, all the forces of Yanhuang, as well as the major forces in the world, have basically reached preliminary cooperation.
On the other side, in the southern province of Xichuan, at the border of the Raya Mountains, Ao Lie's 500,000 troops finally arrived.
There are five cities in the Raya Mountains, and there are several large cities, but most of them are built on the mountains.
Previously, Kaiding and Nia swept through Xichuan and occupied most of the rivers and mountains in Xichuan. However, the Raya Mountains in Southern Province are really difficult to capture, and the cities here are built on the mountains, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Millions of refugees in Ao Lie have largely fled to the Raya Mountains, where they have organized themselves into militias and worked with the local army to defend themselves against the enemy.
Kaiding launched several strong attacks, but the cost of capturing a city was too great, and he later abandoned the Raya Mountain Boundary.
In addition, Kaiding has just conquered the three provinces of Xichuan, and the foundation is not stable, and there are often rebellions. In order to make steady progress, Kaiding put all his energy on developing and consolidating the rule of the three provinces of Xichuan.
Within the three provinces, the displaced people and stragglers who did not escape in time were gradually suppressed by the Greys, and then assimilated by the Greys.
Overall, the number of civilians in Ao Lie is about one-third less, and now two-thirds are still two-thirds, and they have successfully defended the border of the Raya Mountains.
After Ao Lie returned with his army, the first thing he did was to appease the people. However, most of the people could not be appeased at all, and they had lost so much in the past six months. There are many women who have lost their husbands.
Back then, more than one million troops followed Ao Lie to the east, but now, only about half have returned.
But in addition to sad things, there are also comforting things.
I remember that before people, people left their homes and fled to this day, and it is no longer easy to be alive. Now that Ao Lie is back, at least he doesn't have to worry about it anymore, and the hanging heart will be put down.
The top brass of the Ao Lie forces held a meeting all night to discuss the way forward.
Before Ao Lie and Guo Jia returned to Xichuan, they had already planned to enter the land of Tianzhu. But this proposal was opposed by many other high-level officials, because these six or seven million civilians had already established themselves in the Raya Mountains, and there was no need to migrate to other areas. Moreover, there are many large creatures in the mountains and rivers, and it is not difficult to feed these millions of people.
These high-ranking officials are generally conservative, and they are all city lords of several large cities in Southern Province. Although they are somewhat conservative in their thinking, they have made great contributions after all. It was they who evacuated the civilians to Nancheng in time, it was they who organized the militia to resist Kaiding, and it was they who saved the millions of civilians in Ao Lie.
Because of this, Ao Lie and Guo Jia had to respect them and must not take tough measures.
Why?
Because Ao Lie has been absent for more than half a year, these leaders have already won the support of the people. On the contrary, it is Ao Lie, and his people's gathering power is not as good as it was back then.
In addition, the commoners are similar to them, they are reluctant to move, and they even fall in love with the mountains of the Raya mountain realm. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is not afraid of enemy invasion.
The truth is true, but Ao Lie's idea is not to be in a corner of the country, he hopes to make a comeback and regain his lost territory.
Guo Jia, on behalf of Ao Lie, organized the language and expressed his views to everyone.
This Raya mountain boundary is indeed good, and it is not a problem to live for a short time, but it is not suitable for long-term development. There are a lot of large beasts here, and they will occasionally harass humans and attack their cities. In other words, every day, blue ore will be consumed by these large beasts.
Perhaps the ore output will be relatively high due to the mountainous terrain, but considering the daily loss, the ore production will be extremely reduced.
There is also the problem of food, millions of mouths, but it is not so easy to feed. Hunting large animals may be a great solution, but every time you hunt them, you have to pay a price. Every day, soldiers die because of hunting large animals, maybe not many soldiers die every day, but the accumulation of small amounts, in the long run, will also be a huge loss.
Moreover, there will be many restrictions on the terrain of mountains and rivers, and the pace of economic and military development will be very slow. If it's just a corner of the place, it's not a problem. But if you want to make a comeback in the future, out of Qishan and set the Central Plains, the difficulty is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Those leaders and city lords were also very understanding, they knew that Ao Lie was an ambitious man, and he was not willing to hide in Raya Mountain for the rest of his life. However, at present, the situation is not stable, the foundation is shaking, and the troops and soldiers need to rest and recuperate, so it is really not appropriate to move.
Besides, there are many forces in the land of Tianzhu now, and it is not easy to invade there.
After a controversy, the result was that the majority was against leaving Rayasan.
Ao Lie's face was very ugly, he watched those so-called officials express their opinions and speak the truth, and his heart was already extremely disgusted. But he can only endure, he must not get angry, now is not the time to put on a lord's shelf.
Ao Lie needed them to rally people's hearts, so he just listened quietly, listening to the debate between Guo Jia and those conservatives.
There are not many people who agree with Guo Jia, and Guo Jia has no choice but to use a little trick, that is, he lied to everyone that when the gray clan develops well, they will attack Southern Province and completely kill us.
Guo Jia usually never jokes about prophecy, if he sees the picture of the future, then everyone basically believes it.
That is to say, if the gray tribe develops and grows, it will definitely unify the southern province, which is an inevitable trend of historical development. It's like during the Three Kingdoms period, the Northern Wei Dynasty would eventually swallow Western Shu.
If you don't want to make progress, you will always perish in the end, and everything is only a matter of time.
Although conservatives are conservative, they are not stupid, and a corner of peace is not a long-term solution after all.
Guo Jia struck while the iron was hot, and solemnly explained: "Everyone, this battle must be fought, whether we move or not, the Gray Clan will come over sooner or later." We must not sit idly by and act sooner rather than later. In the current land of Tianzhu, the various forces never thought that there would be an invasion by foreign forces, and we must take it by surprise. Even if you can't quickly annex the entire Tianzhu, you can at least occupy the northeast region. ”
The conservatives discussed again, and after nearly an hour of further discussion, all conservative officials agreed to the move. But there is one condition, that is, the army must first gain a foothold in the land of Tianzhu.
In other words, after it is determined that the army has occupied the northeastern region of Tianzhu, these millions of civilians are ready to move.
Guo Jia originally had this kind of idea, so he reached a consensus with these old schools at once.
That night, Ao Lie and Guo Jia deployed and distributed the existing forces.
There were 500,000 troops brought back from Hedong, of which 100,000 were veterans of the battlefield, and they were particularly strong. Ao Lie recycled all the worn-out armor of 500,000 troops, intending to melt them all down to create 100,000 sets of B-rank armor.
In other words, Ao Lie plans to use 100,000 elite soldiers to surprise attack Tianzhu.
The preparation time is three days, and after three days, the official march to Tianzhu is carried out.
On the other side, on the continent of Europe, Mikasha and Ainil began to mobilize elite troops, mainly composed of the Kedoin people, with a number of up to 500,000.
The total strength of the Zerg is now as high as more than 10 million, but in the face of dark zombies, the numerical advantage does not exist. The more troops you send out, the more troops you will only infect.
Therefore, to deal with the dark zombies, it is necessary to send elite troops, troops wearing B-level or above armor, or troops with high defense power.
And the Kedoin combat race can be described as the elite of the elite, they don't need to wear any armor, and the defense of the body itself is as high as about 100, and the zombies can't bite at all.
The Kedoin combat race also has a great advantage, that is, even if it is injured, even if its strength is reduced, its defense will not be reduced, so it is difficult for dark creatures to be successfully infected. Unless it's some elite dark zombies, there's no chance that the Kedoin people will be infected.
In a barracks square, Mikasha saw the 500,000 soldiers, and her heart was indescribably excited. Such a strong ace army is about to be unveiled.
Mikasha had been preparing for the day of their appearance for a long time, and now she finally saw the day when they were ready to go. It's a pity that Mikasha originally planned to use this elite force to deal with Jiang Feng, but now it has become to help Jiang Feng. It's ironic, but there's no way around it.
If the dark zombies are not dealt with for a day, Yan Huang will become chaotic, Jiang Feng himself will be unable to protect and develop, and Mikasha will lose the meaning of life.
He really missed that time, the years when he fought with Jiang Feng, arranging troops, strategizing, and sometimes staying up late just to make a surprise attack.
The Jiang Feng who used to be is gone, and now only this young Jiang Feng is left, hoping that he will not disappoint Mikasha in the end, and become a person who can make Mikasha nervous and think about it every day.
While Mikasha was distracted, Anel came to the General's Terrace and reported to Mikasha: "Various cities along the coast have sent reports that the American troops have withdrawn. In addition, in the sea area closest to us, the US military actually left ten large ships empty. ”
"Empty? What do you mean? ”
"Nor can it be said to be completely empty, there are pilots, communicators, instructors, and they say that these are ten ships left to us by the Commander-in-Chief of the Reich. When we have assembled our elite troops, we can take a ship and sail around to the continent of Asia. ”
"Sail to go? Isn't that a long detour? We can cross the Eurasian desert directly, right? ”
"Our insects have very strong endurance, and it is indeed feasible to cross the Eurasian desert, but this will more or less affect the physical strength of the troops, and we have to bring a lot of bottled water, which is very inconvenient."
"Do you mean with the help of human ships?"
"Yes, anyway, now that we are temporary allies, we don't have to care about any face, just accept the kindness of breaking the sky."
"Have all those ships been inspected? Is it safe and secure? ”
"After checking, there should be no problem with security. Sister, have you ever considered developing the Navy? ”
"Of course I thought about it, but it's only about two years after the end of the world, and I don't feel like there's any need to be in a hurry. If the navy is developed, other fields of science and technology may not be able to keep up, and the race of Cytoin will not be born so quickly. Besides, we insects are naturally afraid of water, and are not suitable for naval warfare, as long as we dominate the land. ”
Mikasha recalls that back then, the Zerg dominated the continent and invaded the continent. During this period, the Zerg had an unpleasant quarrel with the zombies of Meilu. At that time, the Zerg did not develop a navy, so they went north, went to the extreme north, went around to the American land, and still fought the American land. So all along, the Zerg were not very interested in developing the navy.
But in this universe, the role of science and technology is becoming more and more obvious, and Ainel feels that it is necessary to keep up with the times and appropriately develop science and technology in other fields.
"My sister is right, but I mean, we can take this opportunity to send people to study those warships well, and when we produce them ourselves in the future, we can avoid many detours."
Mikasha thought about it for a while, and finally agreed: "Okay, this matter is left to you to handle, send some trustworthy humans, study hard, and pick those experts who are already very good at sea tools." ”
"You know, just leave it to me."
On the other side, the continent of Asia, Wangcheng.
100,000 U.S. troops have left Wangcheng and are heading north. In the process of advancing north, a part of the elite troops will converge with the coalition forces of the Northern Province, and a large part of the troops will converge with Jiang Feng's tens of millions of civilians in Cangzhou City.
The U.S. military was added to the escort group, and Jiang Feng's elite troops, as well as the Wudang Flying Army, could be allocated to go north to fight against the Dark Zombies.
In addition, the transport group of Wangcheng carried 100 tons of molten iron and entered the ant cave under the guidance of the Gray Man Corps. They will walk in the cave for several days until they reach the junction of the North and West Rivers.
If nothing else, the construction of the Great Wall in the southwest region of the North and Southwest will be given priority, because it is far away from Langfang City and will not attract the attention of the ghosts, gods and gray people, so there is very little resistance to building the Great Wall there.
People who have just entered the ant burrow always have their heads looking around, as if they are uncomfortable, or a little nervous. In the past, humans did not dare to enter this ant burrow. Even now, they are still afraid of the ant burrow, after all, this underground is the lair of the Grey Clan.
And this transport regiment is mainly composed of new recruits from Wangcheng, they are still inexperienced, if they are attacked in the ant cave, the black iron water is gone, but these tens of thousands of recruits will also be wiped out.
Although Jiang Zhi's forces and the Gray Clan have reached an alliance, this is too sudden after all, and it has only taken two or three days for such a big change to occur, and the hearts of ordinary soldiers are still a little mustard.
The commander of the leading regiment had vaccinated the soldiers before, and there was no danger in this trip to the ant cave. However, in the event of deception by the Greys, the total annihilation of the army is an inevitable result. But our sacrifice is worth it, and it will prove to everyone in the world that the Gray Man is a despicable, shameless, untrustworthy race, and has no bottom line. The Gray Clan will be infamous from now on, and all forces in the world will give priority to eradicating it.
As long as the Greys have the slightest sense of the big picture, they won't cheat.
But no matter what the outcome is, everyone must understand that since you are a soldier, you must obey orders, not to mention an ant cave, even if it is hell, you must go through it.
The recruits don't know much about the Greys, only that they were once zombies and have a deep hatred for humans. So in the hearts of the recruits, they were more or less worried about coming to this ant cave.
But over time, this fear faded. Why?
Because along the way, the gray people have always treated the human soldiers with a smile, and even patiently answered some knowledge of ant burrows for them.
Sometimes, the human soldiers will come across creatures that they have never seen before, and the Greys will explain the creatures to the human soldiers so that they don't get nervous.
After only a few hours of getting along with each other, the recruits also felt more and more that the Gray people were very similar to humans, and that they were not a bad race.
Among these gray soldiers, there are also many female soldiers, some of whom are very good-looking, but their skin is gray. But this did not affect the aesthetics in the slightest, and many human soldiers found topics to chat with those female soldiers.
In this way, the 10,000-strong transport regiment, accompanied by the Gray Man Corps, traveled through the underground world like a long snake. Almost every few meters, there are gray soldiers riding giant ants, and they are afraid that humans will be left behind. After all, ant burrows are intricate, and it's easy to get lost.
On the other side, the envoy of the Jiang forces came to the northern land, Altai, the royal city of the beasts.
After nearly a year of development, the Orcs have already established a foothold in the western part of the North.
During this time, the orcs have been developing with peace of mind and have not participated in any wars. No, it should be said that there was no direct involvement, but indirect participation.
That is, the orcs sent a steady stream of all kinds of ores to the forces of the river through sea. The desperate development of the beast clan can actually be understood as desperate mining.
The forces of Jiang are kind to the beast clan, and the beast king has never forgotten it. Because of the war, the demand for all kinds of ores by the forces of the river has become very huge.
In war, the orcs can't help much, but when it comes to ore, the orcs are full of firepower to help.
Of course, the forces of the river will also provide a large amount of material supplies to the beast clan. But in general, the value of what the orcs gave out was far greater than what they brought in.
But there were no complaints, who let Jiang Feng help the beast clan.
Today, the envoy of the Eno forces handed over the letter to the Beastmaster Lin.
After reading it, Lin directly touched his horns, looking sad.
"Jiang Feng actually asked for such a quantity of Molten Iron? My God, many veins have been dried up on our side, so where can we get so much molten iron. ”
