1526. Arrive at Moyunling
The reinforcements of Handanar City were stationed on a high hill outside the No. 2 Gorge in the southern mountain pass of the Moyun Mountains, and a large number of Western Route troops gathered on this grassy slope, and the 17th Heavy Infantry Regiment, which had arrived first, had already set up a marching tent.
Before it got dark, they lit a bonfire on top of the hill and some torches on the grassy slope to illuminate the meadow.
For some time to come, the camp here will become a temporary camp for the Western Route Army.
The mountains at the southern foot of the Moyun Mountains are close to the edge of the highlands, and because of the many mountain paths, the mountains here become intermittent, unlike the northern mountain range of the Moyun Ridge with only one mountain pass.
There are more than a dozen mountain roads in the southern foothills in this area, stretching for nearly 100 kilometers from east to west.
No matter which mountain path you take, you can enter the mountains at the southern foothills, which is the main reason why the demon legions did not choose to garrison here.
These trails can all be extended down the mountain, but in the middle of the southern foothills, all the trails are reunited by the upward elevation of the terrain, and form a unique valley, which is the Dak Valley currently occupied by the Western Route Army, which is the only passage from the southern foothills to the Gandaur Mountains.
If you look at the mountain road at the southern foot of the Moyun Mountains on the map, it is probably like a handle placed upside down on the ground.
Because of the dense jungle at the foot of the southern foothills, the Bena legion carved out a wide mountain path at the foot of the southern foothills suitable for cavalry charges, which was stopped by a dangerous peak when it reached the Dak Valley.
It was with that easy-to-defend valley that the demons were able to hold off the two attacks of the Bena Legion.
There is only a very thin stream under this grassy slope, and the meandering stream flows with the clear glacial snow water of the mountains at the southern foothills, and the moonlight of the snow is sprinkled on this grass, and a group of orderly soldiers from the logistics department lead the horses to the side of the river to carry water and drink horses.
The ground by the stream was soft and muddy under the trampling of a herd of Guborian horses.
A group of hoplite soldiers who had just arrived on foot also squatted by the stream to wash their faces, their bags had not yet had time to be put down, and these soldiers could not hide the fatigue on their faces in the night, and then they had to set up tents in the area that belonged to them.
Not far away by the stream, several infantry soldiers had begun to prepare to build a stove by the stream, they rushed to this side at the speed of a rapid march, and at noon and evening they only ate a little dry marching rations, and now they had to hurry to the grassy slope to set up tents, they wanted to cook some hot porridge to keep everyone warm.
Several knights in costume riding demonic horses ran along the river, pointed to the earthen stove in the shape where they had been built, and shouted: "The pool above the high hill has been filled with clear water, you people don't drink the snow water in this river, you go to the designated area above to build an earthen stove, go, go, don't gather here......"
A group of heavy infantry soldiers who had just arrived here hurriedly got up again, carrying heavy bags and continuing to walk up the grassy slope.
If you look down from the night sky, you can see that the camp stretches for several kilometers, and the heavy infantry regiments of the Western Route Army have arrived here one after another, all setting up tents in their respective camps.
Since the supplies of the Western Route Army were very well prepared, the infantry soldiers arrived here and began to prepare dinner.
The Moyunling Highlands and the Duck Valley are completely different climates, and it is the rainy season in Handanar County, but the temperature here is still only a few degrees Celsius at night.
The marching tents prepared by Surdak for the hoplite infantry regiments were also covered with thick wool felt, and almost all of the marching tents were inhabited by the same group of battle squads.
Many infantry soldiers thought that when they arrived at the Moyunling Heights, they would fight the evil spirits, but when they came to the camp, they saw the endless wilderness sprinkled by the moonlight, the cool wind, the clear air, and the stars in the sky, and the clouds on the horizon seemed to be touched by raising their hands, but they couldn't see a single evil ghost.
The rolling hills were hidden in the night, and none of the warriors knew how big this vast world was.
I only heard that the Knights of Constructed Armor had spent half a month passing through the entire highlands from south to north, so if you don't count the mountains surrounding the highlands, in fact, the Moyunling Highlands would not be much bigger than the Invercargill Warcraft Forest in the White Forest Plane.
In fact, it has been difficult to find the whereabouts of the demons here for a long time, and some adventuring groups who want to return to the Dak Valley camp near it, and when they saw that the large army of the Western Route Army had officially entered the Moyunling Heights, they did not mention returning to the Dak Valley to repair.
"We're putting so much effort into fighting for this land, is it really that good here?" Andrew asked as he led a demonic warhorse, followed behind Surdak.
Surdak stopped, and a group of costumed knights passed in front of him, saluting him.
Surdak motioned for them to pass first, and then turned to Andrew and said:
"Of course, this Moyunling Highland is actually a natural barrier to Handanar County, and it is more reliable to be stationed here than to garrison the forest farm camp south of the Gandaur Mountains."
"As long as we can build a city here, our lord's army can continue to expand north."
"To put it bluntly, the other six counties of the Warsaw plane are just a few insignificant pieces of land surrounding Epsonshire."
】
"In the future, if we want to form a lord army to expand north, then we can unite with the Aigrod tribe to expand northward, or we can organize an alliance army to unite with other lords in Bena Province, I believe that there should be many lords who are willing to rely on the natural fortress of Moyunling Highlands to open up a wider land to the north......"
"I heard Elder Ambrobie say that through the northern mountains of Moyun Ridge, in the distance is a completely unexplored and wild land, where demonic beasts are rampant, and that side is the real treasure place for us."
Late at night, the two stood on a high post.
When Andrew heard Surdak say this, he was immediately thrilled by the longing in his mouth, and he couldn't help but puff up his chest and say heroically.
"Then we'll go all the way north, to the end of the skyline."
Surdak squinted his eyes and glanced at Andrew, and said to him:
"If you want to continue north, you must grow into a qualified regimental leader, not a berserker who only knows how to charge, or I would rather put you in the White Forest plane to guard Invercargill Forest."
Andrew scratched his head with a slightly embarrassed face, and said with some embarrassment:
"Hey...... Didn't you say you wouldn't mention it? ”
The conversation between the two was drowned out by the noise of the camp at night, and the infantry soldiers, after setting up their tents, had to be fixed with some ropes, and had to use some wooden wedges to drive into the surrounding dirt, the muffled sound of the wooden wedges being struck by the wooden mallets, and the shouting of the soldiers who needed to master the rhythm of the beating, and the excited conversations of the soldiers were mixed together.
It was a sleepless night......
……
Among the barracks, the first to be built must be the marching tent.
Inside the tent, Selena brought two cups of black tea and handed one of them to Surdak, who was looking at the map.
According to the sorcerers in the reconnaissance team:
Reinforcements from Handanale were now in the middle of the Highlands, and their 70,000-strong horse infantry was stationed at the foot of a hill near the eastern end of the North Sunderland Ranges.
Although they have not yet officially engaged the Demon Legion, they have begun to set up a large number of boundary pillars in the central part of the Highlands, trying to carve out all the lands in the west-central part of Moyun Ridge as their territory.
This group of reinforcements from Handanar City are all horse infantry, and even their bags have separate war horses to consign, so in terms of the mobility of the team, they are directly chasing the constructed knights of the Western Route Army.
It's just that this is also what Surdak is most worried about, so many fine Gubolai war horses poured into the Moyunling Heights, which is a rare and delicious feast for the evil spirits on this highland.
This group of demons has been reluctant to make a move, mainly because they have failed in the previous battles, this time they fought on the Moyunling Heights, fearing that a rout would make the morale of the demons even more sluggish, so they became much more cautious.
However, the reinforcements of Handanar City are a piece of fat and fat meat for the demon army......
Thinking of this, Surdak couldn't help but sigh.
The most important part of the battle situation this time was the great battlefield in the North Sunderland Mountains, and they did not expect the appetite of the reinforcements of Handanar City to be so great, and all the land west of the central axis of the entire Moyunling Highlands was divided into their war zone.
I've heard that the reinforcements from Handanaar City have even contacted some of the adventure groups operating around the North Sunderland Mountains, but these adventure groups don't seem to buy it and don't want to follow their legions to round up the demons.
If according to Surdak's battle plan, the Western Route Army bombarded all the way west along the main battlefield along the North Sunderland Mountains, it seemed that it would not work.
This line of attack was occupied by reinforcements from the city of Handanar, and it is said that the southernmost boundary marker in the area occupied by the reinforcements was south of the hills of Villagassi, less than two hundred kilometers from the North Senlander Mountains.
However, this hill hides a turquoise vein, which is now occupied by reinforcements, and it is estimated that they will not give up the Garcy Hills no matter what they say.
The area of the reinforcements of Handanar City is bounded by the guide sign arranged by Surdak in the east, and an area with a depth of 500 kilometers from north to south is demarcated in the middle of the highlands, and extends 200 kilometers to the west, just enough to include the current buffer zone of Surdak and the demon army into the territory of the territory.
"These fools who don't know whether to live or die."
Andrew sat across from the round table and cursed angrily.
Wolf Knight Tiger and Carrie. Decker sat on either side of Andrew, Carrie. To Decker's left is Naomi, then Samira, and Selena is seated between Surdak of Tygo, the Wolf Knight.
"Boss, what are we going to do next?" Wolf Knight Tiger asked.
Surdak looked at the map, narrowed his eyes and said:
"They want the front of the North Senland Mountains, so let it be for them, once the war starts, this is destined to become the main battlefield of the Moyunling Highlands, I hope they can hold on for a little longer......"
