Chapter 62: The Great War and the Trapped Dragon Bay (1)
Zhong Yulou and Xuemanshan were still at a loss, and Han Gongting explained: "Pingyang Pigeon has a habit of sending messages to our army, and they use twelve pigeons to convey the same message each time, so that not only Shen Moxuan of Shenglong Valley can receive it, but I can also receive it." But he is just an ordinary person, and he can find out that the Long He army is five miles north of Shenglong Valley, but can't the Long He army find him? Once the Long He army discovers him, how can he not know that he is reporting to our army? If Long Yuandong catches a carrier pigeon and sees this note, he will inevitably think that the suspicious army in Shenglong Valley is our real main ambush army. Since he thinks that there is our main force ambush in Thang Long Valley, how can he go to Thang Long Valley again? If he doesn't go to Thang Long Valley and Broken Dragon Gorge, is there a third way to go? So I expect that the Long He army will fall into our trap!"
Zhong Yulou said: "However, how did Pingyang Pigeon and the civilians know that we have an ambush in Shenglong Valley? This is a major secret of our army!"
Xue Manshan added: "If the Long He Army hadn't found the letter from Pingyang Pigeon, it was still possible that they would not have taken the road of Longxia. ”
"The line of Pingyang pigeon was told to Shen Moxuan, and they had contact two months ago. ”
Han Gongting put away the game of Go, shook the hem of his clothes, walked out of the pavilion, and said, "If the Long He Army does not find the Pingyang pigeon, they will continue to carry out their surprise attack plan." Shen Moxuan only needs to adapt to the situation and change the ambush formation, so he is not afraid of them. The surprise attack of the Long He army was unfavorable, and in a hurry, and they did not know the reality of our army, how could they not retreat in a hurry? However, with Long Yuandong's character, how could he be willing to retreat after leading the army back? Therefore, they would definitely come down along the Broken Dragon Gorge to the west to take revenge on us. Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious, hurry up and follow me to Sleepy Dragon Bay to wait for the Dragon He Army!"
Han Gongting was right about everything, but he just didn't expect the speed of the Long He Army to be so fast.
While the three of them were still arguing in the pavilion, the Long He Army had already come to the top of the Broken Dragon Gorge Waterfall.
The waterfall of Broken Dragon Gorge is about 100 meters high, falling vertically downward, the sound of the roar of the torrent is deafening, the waterhole under the waterfall is washed by the flowing water all the year round, and the bottom is not visible.
At this time, it was already winter, and although it did not snow in Broken Dragon Gorge like Hanyuan County, the water in the gorge was cold to the bone, and just standing on the shore, I couldn't help but shiver.
He Dali stood on a stone by the waterfall, cautiously looked down, and smacked his tongue: "It's so high, you let us jump directly?
Long Yuandong said: "Why do you always drop the chain at critical moments? Aren't you usually quite capable? If you want to jump, you will jump, mother-in-law!"
He Dali smiled: "It's no problem for me to jump, after all, I know a little bit of water, so I won't drown." And although the water is cold and the cliff is high, it can't freeze me to death, and it can't kill me. However, half of the soldiers in our Longhe Army are earth attribute soul masters, Tu Ke Shui, but Tu is also afraid of water, most of them can't swim, after I jump, will they also jump down? What is the difference between that and sending them to death?"
Dugu Wenwaist also persuaded: "At this time, the mountains and rivers are abundant, and the water is turbulent, if you force them to jump, I'm afraid there will be an accident." We can't just be quick and do nothing else!"
Long Yuandong glared at his sword and said: "Don't talk nonsense! The way to use soldiers lies in using odds; The way to use odds lies in a quick word! As long as we are fast enough, we will not be afraid of the enemy's ambush!"
Dugu Wen's waist was speechless for a while, knowing that he couldn't convince Long Yuandong, so he turned his head to look at He Dali.
He Dali picked up a basin-sized mountain stone and threw it into the deep pool under the cliff, the stone was separated by a few seconds before falling into the water, splashing a huge splash, and the sound of entering the water was covered by the sound of the waterfall, and it was not heard at all.
He took off his upper shirt and tied it around his waist, revealing a strong muscle, his right leg was slightly bent, and said, "Since you insist on me jumping, then I will take the lead in jumping one!"
Long Yuandong stretched out his palm and stopped: "Wait! I thought about it just now, and what the military advisor said is not unreasonable. In this way, we divided the way to the division, picked out all the warriors who did not know how to swim, and led by the military division, circled down the mountain road on the right, bypassed the waterfall, and advanced in a roundabout way, and by the way, we could also observe the surrounding terrain. The two groups converged five miles downstream of the waterhole. ”
The difference between the top and bottom of the Broken Dragon Gorge Waterfall is very large, and the drop zone is very long, and it is necessary to walk more than twenty or thirty miles of mountain road around the waterfall. Dugu Wenyi immediately ordered more than 600 soldiers who didn't understand water at all, and without saying much, he took the lead in setting off.
On a hill more than 2,000 meters away from the Broken Dragon Gorge Waterfall, several sentries of the Five Elements Sect were lying on the ground with binoculars, carefully peeking at the movements of the Long He army.
A young sentry hurriedly said, "No, no, no!
Another person reprimanded in a deep voice: "What are you muttering? Have you forgotten what you are doing? Look clearly, they have only left five or six hundred people, and the main force led by Long Yuandong and He Dali is still there!"
The young sentry whispered, "That's what the eldest brother said. Shall we report to the altar master and ask them to immediately send troops to surround the deviant division of the Longhe army?"
The older scout continued to observe and said, "Remember to me, we are scouts, and our responsibility is to report the situation on the front line to the superiors. It's okay to let Kuroko report this, you stay first, maybe there will be other changes. ”
The young sentry said, "Yes." After a while, he couldn't help muttering: "The enemies have all arrived, and the Snow Altar Lord has not come back yet, so he is really anxious." We've been busy for more than half a month, but we can't let them slip away again!"
"Shut up!" the elder scout changed color and said, "Take care of your own business!
The young sentry was startled and lowered his head to cover his mouth.
On the Broken Dragon Gorge, He vigorously struck each other with both palms, drank a few times in the air, cheered himself up, walked to the waterfall, and said: "Long Shovel, after I jump down, you give me a look, in case I can't climb ashore, you quickly come down and catch me!"
I remember that Xiong Zhuangzhuang is an ancestral black gold iron bone, and his small man is more than 600 pounds, but you are heavier than him, and I really don't know what material your bones are. You say that you know how to be watery, but you are so heavy that you can't float at all, and you can only walk from the bottom of the water to the shore by holding your breath in the pool. This pool is at least a few tens of meters deep, and the walls are steep and smooth, I'm really afraid that you won't be able to climb up and drown in it!"
Long Yuandong joked: "So don't pretend, hurry back, let the water attribute brother go down to explore the way first, you won't be too late to jump!"
He Dali got off the donkey and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, who will come first?" ”
In the Longhe army, almost half of the warriors are earth attributes, one-third of the warriors are metallic, and the rest of the warriors are wood, fire, water and other attributes.
This kind of soul master attribute composition is basically the distribution characteristics of the local soul masters of the Tuhao Empire, with the soil attribute being the most, the five element attributes being the second, and the nine palace attributes being very few.
The reason why the metallic soul master can account for one-third of the Longhe army is because Long Yuandong himself is extremely metallic, and he has more experience and effectiveness in training metallic soldiers, so he is specially drawn from various troops.
I saw more than a dozen water-attribute warriors walking out of the queue, and a white-faced ape-armed man with a slender arm was at the front.
Long Yuandong shouted: "Feng Asan, after you go down, immediately send someone to occupy the favorable terrain, and at the same time pick up the brothers who go down behind." The roaring sound of the water and the peculiar terrain make it a good place for the enemy to set up an ambush, so you should pay close attention to the surrounding situation and immediately use fireworks to warn you if something is wrong. ”
Feng Asan put his right fist on his chest, saluted a military salute, and said, "Yes!" walked to the waterfall, took a deep breath, jumped into the waterfall, and disappeared.
When He leaned over to look, Feng Asan suddenly came out of the waterfall again, and at this time the person had reached the middle of the waterfall. He stepped on the waterfall, walking down as if he were leisurely, his body almost perpendicular to the cliff face, but there was not the slightest water stain on his clothes.
He sighed vigorously: "Sure enough, there is a specialization in the art industry. The attributes of the five elements and nine palaces have their own merits. ”
After Feng Asan, more than a dozen water attribute soul masters jumped into the pool one after another.
Long Yuandong said: "Fatty, now it's your turn! You are too heavy, if there are too many people going down, I am afraid that you will hit others when you jump, so you give priority to jumping." Rest assured, there are our brothers down there, and they won't drown you. ”
He Dali pulled off a long rope from a pro-soldier, and said with a smile: "I think it's safer to have this." "Tie a head-sized stone to one end of the rope, walk to the waterfall, aim at a cypress tree on the cliff, wave it away, and the stone with a rope is wrapped around the cypress seven or eight times, and it is tied firmly.
He pinched the other end of the rope vigorously, his chest suddenly straightened, and he held one hand high and stood straight.
Long Yuandong was stunned for a moment, thinking that something strange had happened behind him, and turned around to see that the soldiers were orderly and there was nothing abnormal. I only heard He Dali shouting in a tragically loud voice: "Brothers, farewell! goodbye to you!"
Only then did Long Yuandong know that He Dali was playing treasure, and scolded with a smile: "Don't be a fart! Make this kind of joke again, Lao Tzu will hammer you!"
He Dali was in the air, he couldn't hear his words, he felt that there was a sudden strong force on the rope, and his body was pulled closer to the cliff, he thought he would hit the cliff, and hurriedly bent and stretched his legs, ready to kick on the cliff and jump outward.
He vigorously pulled the whole cypress tree, and fell into the pool like a meteorite.
Before he entered the water, he had already used the attribute skill "Petrified Skin", and his body was invulnerable, and he didn't feel pain at all, but the more than ten water attribute soul masters who were guarding him in advance were so shocked that his ears exploded, he was dizzy, and some people were even a little careless, and they were almost swept away by the huge waves he stirred.
He Dali directly smashed the pool of water out of a huge pit of more than ten meters, and if he could open his eyes at this time, he could almost see the bottom of the water. The huge wave that rushed outward poured back, stirring up a splash five or six meters high again, and the splash fell, completely submerging the grass, leaving a whirlpool-shaped ripple.
Then the cypress also fell on the right near the shore, and the leaves were scattered all over the pool, carrying the floating load and sinking.
Feng Asan came back to his senses and said, "Quick, go into the water to catch people!"
