1418. Moyun Ridge

On the opposite side is the highest peak in the northern part of the Gandaur Mountains, the Moyun Ridge.

It is hidden in the mountains, but it is isolated among the mountains.

There are countless overlapping peaks on the Gandaur Mountains, and the Moyun Mountains are nearly a thousand meters high from a group of mountains. Towering like a cloud.

Standing at the foot of Moyunling Mountain, it is already difficult to take in the full view of this peak.

When Surdak entered Moyun Ridge with the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment, he didn't think it was so tall and majestic, and the Magician Scout Group flew around this Moyun Ridge for nearly twenty days before it could fly around the main peak of Moyun Ridge.

Prior to this, Surdak thought that Moyun Ridge was just a main peak, but according to the information obtained from the Wizard Scout Group, the peak hidden in the clouds was at least as large as the Sayroman Plateau in the Ganbu plane, which meant that there was probably a vast field hidden in the main peak of Moyun Ridge straight into the clouds.

Then the original plan of the Buna Legion in the forest farm camp to attack Moyunling was really a bit hasty.

The barracks of the Western Route Army were built in a northward woodland at the foot of the southern Moyun Mountains, which was a gentle slope full of oak forests, the oak trees between the woodlands were thick and tall, the woodland was covered with some mosses and ferns, there were no low bushes and vines, and there was a river stream not far away, facing the Moyun Mountains, and there was an open valley of nearly ten kilometers in front.

Even if there were an army of demons rushing down from Moyun Mountain, it would be exposed to this valley where there were almost no people to hide.

In the barracks of the Western Route Army, thousands of heavy infantry soldiers are in full swing to build the camp wall, and the entire wall is almost made of local materials. Nine-meter-high wooden fence.

Under the wall on the outside of this wooden wall, there is also a row of wooden thorns with an angle of 45 degrees, each of which is six meters long, almost the size of an adult. The legs were so thick, and the end of the diagonal point into the sky was sharpened by the infantry soldiers.

On the inside of the wooden fence, a platform is erected at the top, and this platform made of wooden planks is made of pillars, and there are ladders every 50 meters or so, and there are many arrow towers on the wooden fence.

The Legion had several highly skilled carpenters, and the makeshift camp had been built to look like a well-fortified stronghold.

Nearly 60,000 hoplite soldiers have been living in this camp, and each arrow tower on the wall is equipped with a magic bed crossbow, and almost half of the 100 bed crossbows sent by the military headquarters to the Western Route Army are installed on the camp arrow tower.

When the camp was first built, there were also demon scout squads running over from time to time to harass them, and Surdak ordered people to put out a hundred bed crossbows and shoot dozens of demon warriors who attacked the camp in a row, and these demon warriors became much more honest.

In order to prevent the Western Route Army from stationing the camp in Li, the demon legion on Moyun Ridge continued to send batch after batch of demon warriors.

For this reason, Andrew led two Constructed Knights to have dozens of skirmishes with the demon legions on Moyun Ridge in the past half a month, and these demon warriors could not take advantage of anything every time.

Although the strength of the Constructed Knights is similar to that of the Demon Warriors, the two sides are only evenly matched in a head-to-head battle.

If the Constructed Knight doesn't open the battlefield to charge, the Demon Warrior even has an advantage on the battlefield.

It's just that Andrew and the Constructed Knights are very flexible in their play, sometimes they will lead these demon warriors into the battlefield with ambush soldiers, these soldiers are almost all lurking underground, just waiting for the Ghost Warriors to enter the ambush circle, and then crawl out of the hole in the ground, their fighting style is also extremely savage, it is completely desperate to drag the Ghost Warriors with their bodies, and wait for the Constructed Knights who rush out behind to harvest the lives of the Ghost Warriors.

Sometimes the knights would lead evil spirits into the valley full of powder kegs, and the valley with a wide view in front of the Western Route Army camp was almost blown away by black powder, and the originally sparse pine forest had already turned into a scorched earth, and there were even large pits covered with small pits, and there were even many stumps and broken arms of evil spirits buried in the soil.

This conflict continued until the wooden fence on the front side of the camp was erected, and twelve arrow towers were erected, and twelve magic bed crossbows were arranged on the arrow towers.

The number of demon warriors who came over to harass them gradually decreased.

In fact, during this time, a large group of demon warriors also appeared at the foot of Moyun Ridge, preparing to take advantage of the fact that the lord army of Surdak failed to gain a foothold here and completely crush this group of advance troops.

It's just that at this moment, on both sides of this woodland, there are not only two army of soldiers and ants eyeing each other, but also a group of magicians riding magic handles around the sky.

The group of mages even threw a row of powder kegs neatly into the camp of the demon warriors, and before the demon army could form an offensive phalanx, the mages blew up the scene into chaos.

Although there were not many demons who died on the battlefield from the explosion of the black powder keg, the magicians managed to stop a large-scale attack by the demon legion.

Now that the barracks have finally been built, not only have the walls been built on all sides, but the tents in the camp are also gradually decreasing, and with the construction of wooden houses, this temporary camp seems to be much more regular.

The lord army of Surdak contains many natives of the White Forest Plane, rebels from the southern part of the Gampu Plane, and villagers of the Badlands.

This group of people are good at building wooden houses, and it only takes half a day to erect a wooden house for sixty people, and at least nearly a hundred can be built at the same time in the camp.

Today, the entire hillside is occupied by Surdak's Western Route Army, and numerous wooden houses are hidden in the woods.

……

Andrew strode into Surdak's newly built command post, greeted Selena, who was sitting next to him and was counting logistics supplies, and came to Surdak's side.

Surdak was in front of the map, tilting his head to draw the outline of Moyun Ridge on an unknown area of the map.

These map information were all provided by the Magician Reconnaissance Group, and the attack plan originally prepared by Surdak immediately changed the battle plan after learning that Moyunling was so vast.

"Head, should we try to kill it now, let me take the Constructed Knight to be the vanguard first, even if the demons on the other side are fully prepared, I am sure to withdraw completely."

Andrew stood on Surdak's side and said loudly.

Surdak withdrew his gaze from the map, waved his hand at Andrew, and pointed to the chair in the command post for him to sit down.

Then he said to Andrew: "The magician reconnaissance team is exploring the details of Moyunling, the terrain of this area is more complicated than I thought, the evil ghosts have been entrenched here for so long, they must be more familiar with this place than us, we rushed in this rashly, just to kill a few more evil ghosts is obviously not cost-effective, and it will also cause the evil ghost army to be highly vigilant." ”

Surdak dipped a quill pen in a little ink, then drew a small circle on the map, pointed to the area, and said:

"As long as we are stationed here, even if we can control the evil spirits from slipping out of the south side of Moyun Ridge, when the fortifications we have built here are completely completed, this will become the main battlefield of the Western Route Army."

Andrew looked down Surdak's finger and saw that Surdak was talking about the valley in front of the camp.

It was now all blown up by black powder, and every time the demon warriors rushed out of Moyun Ridge, they would take the initiative to avoid that battlefield.

He didn't think it was going to be the main battleground against the demon army.

At this time, Samira and Carry. Decker and Decker walked in from outside the command post side by side, and Surdak asked her:

"Are the rest of the Magic Bed crossbows in place?"

"It's all ready." Samira responded.

Because the Magic Bed Crossbow moves slowly, it needs to be dragged by a war horse every time, which is extremely inconvenient on the battlefield, especially in jungle warfare.

So this time, Surdak simply installed half of the bed crossbow on the arrow tower, and the other part of the bed crossbow was also arranged around the camp by Samira to become a fixed battery.

All the trees in the valley below the hillside had been cut down by the warriors, and the range of the bed crossbow had just reached the edge of the valley.

In order to clear this battlefield, Surdak can be said to have spent a lot of manpower and material resources here.

"I'm going to press the demon army here in Moyun Ridge, only in this way can those adventure groups safely and boldly enter the hunting grounds in the northern part of the Gandaer Mountains, this time I need them to be our eyes, no matter where the demon warriors run, they can't get out of their sight!" Surdak told Andrew about his plans.

Recently, he has been encouraging the adventure group to be stationed in the forest camp, and for this reason, he did not hesitate to divide part of the treatment team with limited resources in the Western Route Army to provide paid treatment for the injured members of the adventure group.

Surdak rubbed his forehead and asked Samira, "Do you know what's going on near Moyun Ridge?" ”

Samira thought for a moment, then replied:

"The biggest problem the demon legion has faced lately is still food. Due to the evacuation of all the demons of the Samosto River from that area, the hunting group on this side of the Sheep Intestine Canyon was also severely damaged, and according to the report of the Wizard Scout Group, it can be judged that the hunting area of the Demon Legion is now only the mountains north of Moyun Ridge. ”

"The demons may need to increase their hunting range in the northern part of Moyun Ridge, I think this might be a good opportunity for us......

Surdak thought for a moment before he asked Samira again, "Can the Magician Scout Group give us the details of Moyun Ridge?" ”

"The vegetation is dense over there, and the magicians are afraid that the demons will suddenly appear, so they dare not easily approach the top of the canopy." Samira said expressionlessly, "I heard that the highest peak is covered with clouds and mist, and the magicians of the reconnaissance group dare not fly into it. ”

"In addition, when the magician was investigating the mountains north of Moyun Ridge, he also found traces of the tribe's aborigines in that mountain range, but it is still a short distance from Moyun Ridge."

Surdak nodded, walked in front of Andrew, patted him on the shoulder with his hand and said:

"What we need to do now is to tie this demon army firmly here, this is the task that Duke Newman has given us the Western Route Army, only by doing this, can we think about other things...... For example, how to weaken the vitality of the Moyunling Demon Legion. ”

"I don't have the slightest interest in that Moyun Ridge right now, but if I can do it without losing manpower, of course I still want to hunt as many demons as possible......"

Andrew whispered a little unwillingly, "Don't you want to see the evil ghost gate hidden on the top of the mountain?" ”

Surdak waved his hand again and quickly said to Andrew, "No...... How can it be? …… I'm not interested in the summit of Moyunling at all! ”

Hearing Surdak say this, Andrew could only abandon the aggressive offensive plan.

Originally, he had agreed with the wolf knight Tiger this time, and the two continued to cooperate this time, just like fighting a beautiful cooperation battle in the Sheep Intestine Canyon.

Unexpectedly, when he ran to Surdak, he touched his nose, turned around and left the command post sullenly.

Surdak's gaze fell on the empty area north of Moyun Ridge, which was not detailed on the map of the Bena Legion.

On the table were several hexagonal magic crystals, which contained many magical images.

Surdak pulled out a crystal from it, and was about to check the contents when Samira, who was on the side, leaned over and asked:

"What are you looking at?"

Surdak drew an arc-shaped arrow around the blurred Moyun Ridge with a quill pen near the left side of the Moyun Ridge, and then asked Samira, who was beside him, "How long would it take us to ride a horse from the edge of the Moyun Ridge to the north?" ”

Samira thought seriously for a moment before saying, "Riding a horse is much slower than flying, at least half a month, are you going to send a reconnaissance team?" ”

She looked at Surdak's side face, and Surdak turned around and shook his head and said:

"No, this time I'm going to meet those tribal natives in person!"

“……”

Samira simply didn't know what to say.

Surdak then explained:

"Now that the natives of the Gandaur Mountains are extinct, and we can only find them further north, I still want to talk to them, they should be in a very difficult situation now, and in order to survive, they should also need to resist the demons, since we have a common enemy, I think we can cooperate with them in some way."

Samira immediately retorted, "You also said that these tribesmen were also hostile to the Imperial Knights, and when they opened up the Warsaw plane, it was the Busman Legion that drove them deep into the mountains. ”

Surdak confidently said:

"But we have a common enemy this time...... And...... I don't think the natives would see me as an enemy! ”

Samira knew that she could not dispel Surdak's thoughts, so she stopped dwelling on the matter.
