Chapter 279: Terrifying War Fortress-1

The reason why Rong Wei and others were in a hurry to inspect the 18th Cave was that in addition to the trapping camp in the 18th Cave, which alarmed Rong Wei, the most important thing was that the 18th Cave was too "calm".

You must know that before the Lu Dao, the Eighteen Caves were the places with the greatest pressure of war among the Thirty-six Caves on the Upper Thirty-six Caves, the Blade Gorge, and the Yongdao, even the guards under the direct command of Rong Wei had to put more than 100,000 combat forces here to barely stabilize the battle situation.

Although it was difficult to push the trap battalion to this position with the greatest defensive pressure, intending to make them suffer, but the trap battalion under their command of the Zuohu soldiers, combat attendants, armed war servants, logistics service soldiers, gravity soldiers, and battalion construction servants were just some newcomers who had never been on the battlefield.

Lieutenant Rong didn't dare to really joke about the war, so while preparing to watch the jokes of the trapping camp, he was ready to respond to the cry for help from the trapping camp at any time, but the strange thing was that the trapping camp not only did not send any signal for help, but even the wolf smoke that symbolized the encounter with the enemy at the pass never rose.

If it weren't for the fact that the trap camp was about to turn ⊥ 18 Caves into a large-scale construction site, and 1100,000 people were in full swing here, Rong Wei would have thought that the Eighteen Caves and Roads had fallen and been completely broken by the Liyi rebels.

This is too abnormal, from the time before and after the Autumn Harvest Festival, the Trap Combat Camp丨 took over丨Blade Gorge丨The garrison and defense of the Eighteen Caves and Yongdao, to the three full months when the first snow has fallen so far, the Eighteen Caves position has not released even one wolf smoke warning of the enemy.

As if the trapped air battle camp had negotiated with the Yi rebels, before they repaired the defense facilities of the Eighteen Caves, the rebels would definitely not come to disturb them, and the Liyi rebels seemed to have forgotten about the Eighteen Caves and Yongdao, but the pressure on the other Thirty-five Caves and Daofeng Gorge was increasing day by day, and they had no time to distract from other things.

If it weren't for the sudden fall of snow at the beginning of today, the offensive of the Li Yi rebels had slowed down, and Lieutenant Rong had been able to breathe for a few days, and he would not have had the time to run to the eighteen caves to "inspect".

According to the regulations of the Great Wilderness Frontier Guards, whenever the pass is attacked by the enemy, a column of wolf smoke must be raised to "warn" other positions, and if the battle situation is urgent, a second column must be raised to remind the friendly troops to "be on alert" and be ready to support at any time.

If the pressure is too great, you can also raise the three-pillar smoke that represents "asking for help", the five-pillar smoke that symbolizes the "critical" position (the first wall is lost), the seven-pillar smoke that is "attacked" (the second wall is lost), and the nine-pillar smoke that is completely "breached" (the third wall is lost), and so on.

But here in the Eighteen Caves, let alone 3579, not even a pillar of smoke has ever risen when encountering the enemy, but the wolf smoke from other Yongdao has been rising all day long, making the line along the Stone Mountain like a big chimney of a black factory

If it weren't for the scouts who stayed here, they would indeed use the war eagle to spread the news every day, informing Rong Wei that everything was okay here, and it is estimated that Rong Wei would have brought someone over to take over the defense of the Eighteen Caves again.

As the longest defense line in the 36 positions of the Stone Mountain, the Yongdao with the highest probability of being attacked, the 18 Caves cannot be unattacked, and the width of the Yongdao is only a few hundred meters The first Cave Yongdao, and the 36 Cave Yongdao, which has the least pressure and is extremely conducive to defense, have been beaten to a pulp during this time, which shows that the Liyi rebels of Jianshi Mountain Bu have become more and more crazy with the advent of winter.

Since the rebellion of the three kings of the Liyi Hundred Tribes, the rebels have been like a snowball, and the chaos has become bigger and bigger in the land of Zhongrong County, and has now spread to the military towns and war towns in the whole territory of Zhongrong County.

I heard that some prefectures and cities have even been broken through the defense line by the rebels, invading the inner territory and wreaking havoc for thousands of miles, and their conditions are so miserable that people can't bear to mention it.

However, the rebels who only relied on torture and plundering could not have perfect logistical support and abundant war reserves like the defenders, and once they could not loot and replenish food and materials, their offensive would be frustrated, and naturally it would gradually disintegrate and dissolve with the internal chaos.

It is said that the cause of the rebellion of the Liyi tribes was because of the autumn harvest festival last year, when the military cities and Rongbao were too ruthless to the Li people and the Yi people, resulting in the people of the Li Yi tribes having no food to survive the winter, and they were always dead, so they forced the Li Yi tribes to rebel.

No one would have thought that the Liyi rebels had successfully survived last year's cold winter by plundering, and that after several seasons of grain harvest this year, they had actually accumulated enough grain and materials to encompass a large number of ordinary people and subordinates in various places, forming a terrible "chaotic tide of people", and suddenly it was out of control.

Last winter, they were able to survive the winter by plundering because the scale was not large, and with the arrival of winter this year, the number of rebels has increased by tens of thousands of times, and it is impossible to survive the winter by raiding alone.

That's why they will expand frantically, striving to conquer those fortifications, fortresses, tunzhai and dock gatherings that have hoarded a large amount of grain and materials, and seize materials for the winter.

As the materials in the northern battlefield were looted by the rebels, under the coercion of winter survival pressure, they would inevitably rush to the south to gain greater living space.

Under such circumstances, how could the pressure on the defense line of the Stone Mountain not be great? As the widest of the 18 Caves in the 36 Caves of the Knife Blade Gorge, how could it not be attacked by the rebels who took the route to the south

Taking advantage of the first snowfall, the rebels waited for the rear supplies to be repaired and the opportunity to postpone the offensive, so they hurriedly came to the Eighteen Caves to inspect and see what was going on.

With more than one million combat forces under the command of the trap air combat battalion, Captain Rong is not worried that the 18 caves will fall all at once, and with so many people, even if they fill it with human lives, they can hold out for a long time, right?

Even if he heard that the eighteen caves were broken through by the rebels and entered the inner city, Rong Wei would not feel strange, but there was no movement, which made people too uneasy, for fear that they would fall into the air and see that the rebels were strong, so he simply surrendered to the enemy

But as they came all the way from the twelfth of the eighteen caves, this worry slowly dissipated, not to mention the strong combat strength of the soldiers under the command of the trapping battle camp, the existence of these twelve terrible war fortresses alone is estimated to make those rebels vomit blood.

Break a layer and look up at it again, break a layer and look at it again, and if you change it endlessly, whoever will think you want to die will feel like you want to die, right?

In the process of taking a very peculiar winch elevator and climbing the 70-meter-high wall of the No. 12 War Fortress, Lieutenant Rong suddenly realized that it was because the defense of the Eighteenth Cave position was too strong and too difficult to fight, and after the defeated rebels here vomited blood, they were very sad to change places to fight other Yongdao, so it would cause the pressure on other Yongdao to increase recently?

What Rong Wei didn't know was that his "divine comprehension" was actually very close to the truth, but he only guessed the beginning, not the end......

When Rong Wei and his entourage climbed the wall accompanied by Amber Tiger, they were immediately shocked by the majestic and majestic scene of the No. 12 Yonggu War Fortress, which was more than 30 meters high and 22 meters thick (more than 50 meters), almost more than twice as high as the original first city wall of the 18th cave

Standing under the city wall, not to mention attacking the city with flesh and blood, it is estimated that it is to look up and look up, and you have to break your neck, the most terrifying thing is that the wall is as high as 70 meters high and 50 meters wide, and it is not a flat plane, but a three-level ladder combat platform in the shape of a "convex" character has been erected

The bottom level of the base is five meters high and thirty meters wide, with a space of ten meters wide on both sides for soldiers to walk, the second level of the base is three meters high and twenty meters wide, and only the outer side is reserved for a 10-meter-wide combat platform, and the third level of the base is also three meters high and ten meters wide, and the outer side is reserved for a 10-meter combat platform.

As a result, the entire fifty-meter-wide top of the War Fortress, including the top of the Season 3 pedestal, has a total of four layers of battle platforms, instead of the single-story battle space at the top of the regular city wall

What makes people's scalps tingle is that on these four-layer battle platforms, every ten meters, there is a huge equipment installed, although it is tightly wrapped in linoleum cloth, and it is impossible to see what it is, but just looking at the complex structure and the hideous appearance of teeth and claws, you can know that this thing is definitely not used as an ornament at the head of the city.

And close to the city wall, there is also a 50-meter-high and 30-meter-wide Hidden Arsenal, a 30-meter-high and 20-meter-wide Arsenal, which is combined with the war fortress to form a huge three-level ladder.

The dam-like war fortress has a staggering eighty-two meters in total height including the three-level war platform at the top, and a terrifying one hundred meters in total with the two giant war structures in the rear

The stunned members of the guard patrol group only felt cold all over their bodies when they saw all this, and couldn't help but feel sad for the people who were preparing to attack this war fortress, while Lieutenant Rong thought a little more, which also caused his body to shudder and tremble slightly......

Such a war fortress, in the entire eighteen caves丨Blade Gorge丨Yongdao, there are twelve acropolis, not counting the acropolis at the entrance, and there are twelve Nima
