Chapter 161, Big Mountain Fortress

You must know that although Anjue City is the same size as Nias City, and the summoning order has also been opened, most of the recruits are still in the training camp, and most of the troops on this trip are standing troops, and the total number will not exceed 20,000.

In other words, Anxin Jue City accidentally lost a quarter of its existing troops!

For any country, such a loss can be called miserable.

Therefore, in the following journey, the arquebus army led by Zhou Mingyue did not suffer any more sneak attacks.

It wasn't until we were about to step out of the unique mountains of Nias City that the sentinel in front sent back the news that they were blocked by a large number of enemies and could not move forward, so please help!

After Zhou Mingyue led the main force to arrive, he saw that the hill at the junction of Nias City and Anxijue City had been dug out of a dense cave by the Anxijue City army.

With these caves, the soldiers of Anjue City could easily hold back the enemy's advance.

After all, if you want to get to Anjue City, you can only cross this mountain, or you can only climb another mountain range that is completely steep.

Zhou Mingyue, who had already learned a little about Anjue City, believed that it would be much easier to cross this mountain than another mountain range.

If you go to another mountain range, you will probably be killed by falling to your death.

After all, in this world where the level of civilization is not very high, a series of things such as airplanes, excavators, climbing tools, etc. have not been invented, and it is too difficult to climb over that mountain range.

But the mountain in front of me, which is already covered with caves, is also a headache.

Zhou Mingyue looked at a team of elite arquebusiers who had just retreated, and there were many missing arms and legs.

No, Anxin Jue City is completely built with this mountain as a fortress.

It probably took no less than ten or twenty years, otherwise it would not have been possible to dig such a large mountain into a hornet's nest, even if only one side of it.

It's no wonder that the big leader of Nias City didn't develop in the direction of Anjue City before, and only fought with Rearthur City.

And after it was defeated, he did not hesitate to flee towards Anjue City.

There's a reason for all this.

If you were yourself, you would be very relieved to have such a big mountain in the way of the enemy.

"Boom! Keep banging, don't stop breathing! ”

Seeing this, Zhou Mingyue didn't have any earth-shattering plans to crack this level.

What thirty-six tricks, it's hard to use them in this world where you are unfamiliar and don't have any connections.

If Zhou Mingyue is willing to spend seven or eight years to build it slowly after seizing the house, maybe he can also have some discordant plan in Anxin Jue City, and adjust the tiger from the mountain, no matter how bad it is, he can also play a game of two tigers.

But it's all too time-consuming.

Zhou Mingyue was blocked in front of this mountain, thinking about what treasures were in the mansion of the great leader of Anjue City, and his heart felt as if he had been scratched by a cat, uncomfortable!

Therefore, he divided more than 2,200 fine arquebusiers into five formations.

Each formation of four hundred and forty stood outside the range of the soldiers of Anjue City, and kept shooting at the hill with their guns in hand.

When the barrel of the gun is hot and red for half an hour in one breath, it will be replaced by the next formation, and so on, never stopping, until the mountain has to surrender!

Well, Zhou Mingyue is completely relying on the relationship that his arquebusiers don't need to replenish ammunition at all to forcibly crush the enemy.

In this way, if any other army in this world is replaced, it may be able to hold out for three or four days, but if it is a long time, not to mention ammunition, it is difficult to supply food and grass in this endless mountainous area, just talk about the barrel of the gun, I really can't stand it.

The magic energy musket made from the musket parts is not as useful as the one made by the war plane projection, and the quality is still a little different.

With Zhou Mingyue's order, the first formation of 440 high-quality arquebusiers began to bombard the mountain with guns.

As I said before, a high-quality arquebus is equivalent to a cannon that has been shrunk, or a cannon with a caliber of more than 100 mm!

Well, if it is placed on the earth, the 100 mm caliber cannon may be just that, after all, on the earth, there are even 400 mm naval guns, and even other weapons with more powerful power, and this 100 mm caliber cannon is naturally not very conspicuous.

But in this world, this fine arquebus is already the top weapon, okay!

Imagine how terrible it would be for 440 100 mm cannons to bombard a hill without stopping!

In fact, the soldiers who were squatting in the cave at this time might feel it more deeply.

At first, many soldiers from Anjue City were still lying at the entrance of the cave, aiming at the foot of the mountain, waiting for another charge from the enemy.

The last enemy charge had left behind a lot of corpses, which made them feel good after almost years of not fighting.

Indeed, when there is no close contact with those corpses, these soldiers will not have too many psychological shadows, but will have a kind of excitement and pleasure brought by war.

But then, a sudden explosion knocked them out of the idea that war was cute.

The continuous explosions killed more than fifty percent of the soldiers in Anjue City who were lying at the entrance of the cave, and only the soldiers who reacted quickly hid in the cave and survived.

But the rest of the day was going to be hard.

Every ten seconds or so, an explosion would sound on the top of the mountain, and even some projectiles would be shot into the cave by chance, immediately setting off a storm of flesh and blood in the cave.

In fact, after three waves of continuous shooting, more than 10,000 soldiers on the hill lost more than two thousand.

And in the next whole day, there were only more than 500 soldiers who hung up.

After all, when digging these caves, they still fully considered the enemy's shooting angle and other relationships, and the cave opening not only slanted upwards, but also had two bends inside, so as to avoid the damage that can be caused by the explosive projectile as much as possible.

Well, it is not so easy to take down the remaining more than eight thousand soldiers on the hill.

But from the next day, some of the soldiers squatting in the cave couldn't stand it anymore.

There were bullets on the hill all the time exploding, not to mention how much damage the explosion from these bullets did to them hiding in the cave, just the constant buring in their ears was very uncomfortable, not to mention the pain of not being able to sleep at night.

Of course, they can also force themselves to ignore the explosions, after all, they are so tired that it is easy to fall asleep.

But from the third day, Zhou Mingyue divided the excellent arquebusiers into several formations, and rushed up the mountain from time to time to harass them.
