Rumble!!

Thunder and lightning rang out in the air, and lightning pierced the silent night, illuminating the entire sky.

In the air, the rain was pouring down.

Below, a procession like a long dragon was walking, stretching for hundreds of miles.

These people are Li Cunxiao.

Li Cunxiao and his two major armies, if they have been walking for nearly ten days, are almost halfway through, but the weather is getting more and more intense, and in the past ten days, the rain has been getting heavier and heavier.

Fortunately, all the logistical food in Great Xia was used as a marching pill, otherwise I am afraid that even if they were not heavy, it would seriously slow down their marching speed.

At this time, there are still a lot of figures scattered in the air, flying around, constantly patrolling, some patrolling the surroundings, and some supervising the soldiers below.

Li Cunxiao and Meng Tian were also in the air.

"General Li, this Burning Dynasty is really a bit excessive!"

Thinking of some of the areas he had passed by before, he was devastated, but the Burning Dynasty still didn't care about it, and Meng Tian sighed.

No wonder the people are against you.

You have destroyed other people's countries, and all places have been devastated by war, but the Burning Dynasty has not taken any measures, and you still want to make people submit, how is this possible.

Even when they destroyed Great Chu, they spent a lot of money and issued a lot of policies to appease those people, and they succeeded in subduing the people.

It's good that you burn the dynasty, you don't do anything, and you still want to subdue people, I'm afraid you're thinking about fart!

When Li Cunxiao heard this, his face was indifferent, and after a while, he said calmly: "Don't worry, the Burning Dynasty won't last long, and the hard days of these people are coming to an end. ”

Meng Tian nodded, for His Majesty, they are still very relieved, they are definitely a person who loves the people like a son.

At this moment, in front, Gao Pet flew quickly.

"Two generals, go forward for about three days, and we will reach our set goal, do we need to prepare in advance?"

"Oh, it's coming, have you found any traces of the Burning Dynasty's army?"

Gao Zhong shook his head: "No, according to intelligence, the other party's three million army set off one day later, and the distance is about the same as ours, but now it seems that the other party's speed is probably about seventy percent of us at most, and it will take at least seven days to get there." ”

Li Cunxiao nodded, "Okay, then you go there to prepare first, and when our army arrives, we are building a position." ”

"Yes, Lord!"

Gao Pet answered, and flew away again.

Li Cunxiao's plan was to find a favorable terrain, and then destroy the enemy in one fell swoop according to the convenience of the terrain.

As for what is favorable terrain?

In Li Cunxiao's view, as long as he uses it comfortably, it is a favorable terrain, that is to say, wherever it is, they are all advantageous, this is self-confidence!

......

At this time, Zhu Dan was leading the army on the way, but the heavy rain continued, and their marching speed could not be increased at all.

They are not like the general army of war, they have easy-to-carry marching pills, their dry food is pulled by carts, but it has been raining, and the food is easy to get wet, so they need to provide logistics vehicles, and the speed will naturally slow down.

"General, there are two armies wreaking havoc in the area we are defending, one of them is farther away from us, and the other is closer to us, according to intelligence, they seem to be coming towards us as well, I am afraid that we will encounter it soon. ”

On the way, Zhu Dan's deputy Zhao Zhipeng really kept reporting the situation to Zhu Dan.

Although Zhu Dan is confident, he is also a famous general after all, so basic intelligence work still has to be done.

"Well, what we want this time is to shoot with all our might, concentrate on destroying one first, and then go to destroy the other, it just so happens that the other side has a unit close to us, so let's take them first!"

After speaking, Zhu Dan said again: "Order, let all the soldiers be ready and ready to fight at any time, and in addition, divide the Fire Legion and the Yanming Legion on the left and right, so that they can support the rest of the place at any time." ”

"Yes, General!"

......

Cliff Valley!

This is an unusually large valley, basically the largest valley in the original Shuimu Dynasty realm, and this valley is still very peculiar.

Because the peaks on both sides of this valley are so high and so smooth that they are almost impossible to climb, it is called the Cliff Valley.

This valley, the key route connecting the two states, was a very important pass of the Mizuki Dynasty in the past, and in the valley, there was also a military fortress built in it to prevent accidents.

Since the Burning Dynasty occupied the Mizuki Dynasty, the cliff city has also fallen into a state of ruin.

At this time, an army appeared in the cliff city, and it was looking around.

"Quickly, quickly search every place, we must not miss any place, this place is the easiest to ambush, we must search clean!"

One order after another was passed on, and the soldiers here quickly began to search the houses in the cliff city.

"Report to the general, there is no abnormality in the south of the city!"

"Report to the general, there is no abnormality in the north of the city!"

“......”

After a while, the soldiers who went out to search came back one after another, and there was nothing abnormal in the four directions of the cliff city!

"Very well, leave a thousand men and horses to occupy this city, and the rest of you, follow me to the front of the cliff valley.

Then the general gave another command, and left with thousands of men.

At this time, above this cliff valley, in a place where no one could see, a figure was quietly watching them.

"Sure enough, as the general guessed, the other party will definitely not let go of this place in the cliff valley!"

Looking at the busy soldiers below, a smile appeared on Gao Chong's face.

Li Cunxiao had already guessed that the other party would definitely have something to arrange in the cliff valley.

Because the terrain of the cliff valley is so suitable, it is a typical terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

As long as a defensive line is arranged at the mouth of the valley, it is completely possible to fight more with less and keep the enemy out.

Zhu Dan was actually afraid that the other party would come early and occupy the exit of the cliff valley and block them outside, in this way, even if the other party's strength was not as good as theirs, but with the terrain, it could completely stop them for a long time.

In this case, it would not be in line with his original intention of wanting to quickly annihilate the other party.

As for the ambush above the valley, this Zhu Dan didn't think about it, because although the cliff valley is a valley, it is not suitable for ambush.

Not only because the valley is wider than the shoulder, dozens of miles wide, and the ambush is of little significance, but also the rugged terrain above the valley is not suitable for soldiers to ambush here.

What's more, if you want to go up to the top of the mountain, you have to take a long detour, and you can't have time to do it.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, seven days had passed.

Zhu Dan's army had come to the entrance of the Cliff Valley.

"How about it, have you found any traces of the other party?"

"General Hui, I found out, the other party was on the other side of the valley, a hundred miles away, camped, and did not enter the valley. ”

Zhu Dan nodded, it seems that the other party's marching speed is really not fast, and he arrived a little later than them.

"Have any anomalies happened lately?"

The guard who was in charge of guarding the cliff valley heard this, thought for a while, shook his head and said: "There is no abnormality, the weather has rained recently, and it has only improved in the past few days, but there seem to be a lot of birds recently, and many soldiers said that they saw a lot of big birds flying in the air at night." ”

"Birds?"

Zhu Dan frowned, and then asked, "Have you sent someone to check, what is the reason?"

The adjutant general showed a touch of embarrassment on his face, and then said: "General, our side is understaffed, so we didn't send anyone to check, besides, those big birds are not low, we are afraid of unnecessary casualties, so we didn't care about them, according to the last general's guess, it should be a group of people migrating!"

Zhu Dan nodded and didn't say much, he just asked casually! Since nothing abnormal happened, forget it.

"All the troops are leaving!"

Suddenly, the army began to move again, and slowly became inferior to the valley.

At this time, on the other side of the valley, a hundred miles away, Li Cunxiao's battle army was stationed here.

"What's the matter, has the other party arrived?"

"It's here, now the other party should be heading towards the interior of the valley!"

Li Cunxiao nodded, and then asked, "Has the Tianwu Legion arrived at the predetermined location?"

Gao Zhong quickly replied: "Just now, the news came from the general lord that the Tianwu Legion has all arrived at the predetermined location, and is only waiting for the general to give an order. ”

"Well, tell General Meng to be ready at any time, and when the time comes, start attacking!"

"Yes, Lord!"

In fact, Li Cunxiao's strategy is very simple, that is, to close the door and beat the dog.

Although the Cliff Valley is an easy place to defend and difficult to attack, it depends on who it is for.

If they defended, it was true that others would not be able to attack it, but now it is different, the Burning Dynasty is defending, and they are attacking, so it is difficult to say.

Li Cunxiao has no intention of passively engaging in battle.

When he learned that Zhu Dan was leading an army of three million, he thought of a plan, that is, to let the other party enter the cliff valley, and then before the other party came out, he would attack back and forth, with the Battle Martial Legion responsible for the front exit, and the Tianwu Legion responsible for the rear exit, annihilating the other party in one fell swoop.

In the cliff valley, except for these two exits, there are no other exits, so the way out is blocked, and because of the terrain, the other party cannot outflank them or the like, so they can only fight in this limited dozens of kilometers.

In this way, not only did they make up for the gap in numbers, but also gave full play to the strength of their two major armies.

Rumble!!

The ground trembled slightly, and Zhu Dan, who was staying in the cliff city, frowned, and a trace of uneasiness flashed in his heart.

At this moment, a lieutenant quickly flew in from a distance.

"General, it's not good, there are large armies at the front and back exits of the cliff valley, and I'm afraid we are about to reach the mouth of the valley at this time. ”

"What?"

Zhu Dan's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "The other party actually dares to take the initiative to attack?

At this time, Zhu Dan no longer had the idea to think about why the other party appeared behind them, and now what he was thinking about was that the other party was so ignorant of life and death, and he didn't think about how to resist the encirclement and suppression of himself and others, and he actually dared to take the initiative to attack.

"Order, the whole army quickly assembled, divided into two parts, quickly went to the front and rear exits, and be sure to destroy the other party!"

"Yes, General!"

There was a response from all around, and suddenly, a number of generals quickly flew towards the military camp outside the city, preparing to assemble a large army and rush towards the mouth of the valley.
