The topography of the Canglin Mountains is very complicated, the mountains are connected with the mountains, Jiaolong Lake is incomparably broad, so far, the cruising range of Fengqing has not been able to touch the edge of Jiaolong Lake, the waters that have been proven, the widest part of the north and south is about 70 kilometers, and the east and west are more than 200 kilometers long.

The straight-line distance between the demon army and Jiaolong Village is not far, but if you choose to detour, I am afraid that you will not be able to reach it for a month or two, even if you cross the lake, the wrong location you choose, you will be blocked by the mountains.

This complex terrain restricts the expansion of the territory, but it is also a natural barrier for the territory!

Perhaps it was the joking promise in the previous small talk that made General Mu's attitude towards Zhang Sheng a lot better, although most of the time he was still habitually squinting, but at least he was willing to let a personal guard pick him up when he acted.

Fengqing patrolled Jiaolong Lake just to warn in advance, but how could the efficiency of the fleet be compared to the air cavalry!

Wanting to wait for Fengqing's report, he didn't know when it would be, Zhang Sheng could only go with General Mu to further determine the information, and before that, he went to the military camp first to let Qin Liangyu reorganize his army for battle.

The eagle Jiao soared into the air and quickly crossed over Jiaolong Lake, and the strong wind brought by the huge wings rippled in a circle on the surface of the lake.

The location where the demon army tried to cross the lake was not far from the original tomb area, the ancient tomb had been completely filled in, and the demon army had built a large camp around it, and the surrounding trees had been cut down.

This is a place where the demon army will never give up, and the abyssal rift is the root they must protect! Once the Abyssal Rift is sealed, they lose not only the follow-up reinforcements, but also the logistics line that keeps them alive.

Until it can be self-sufficient, this will be the lifeblood of the demon army!

The location chosen by the demon army to try, the width of the lake is about fifteen kilometers, connected by wooden rafts, connected into a pontoon bridge, but the distance is too long, if you want to stabilize the march, you will inevitably be assisted by the strength of the army in the end.

Perhaps it was because of the deterrent effect of General Mu's two generals in a row before, and the demon army did not try to attack after discovering them in the air, but only carefully guarded.

"The location...... No matter what, there won't be any problems, right? "In this position, Zhang Sheng thinks that even if the demon army successfully crosses the lake, it will not pose a threat to Jiaolong Village in a short time, and it is not so easy to get out of the mountains.

At present, the follow-up reinforcements of Zhenyuan City have not yet arrived, only his team and a thousand empty horsemen, and it is too risky to start a war.

"Won't there be a problem? You don't think that Ben will come all the way from Zhenyuan City to protect your territory, right? General Mu glanced at him with his peripheral eyes.

"Of course not. But as soon as the reinforcements arrive, they will break the main force of the demon army from the front and seal the abyss rift, and these remnants scattered into the mountains will only be scattered and brave, and they will not pose a threat at all. Of course, Zhang Sheng knew their purpose.

Wipe out the Demon Abyss Demon Army and win meritorious service, but this does not conflict with what he said, or the plan he said is the most correct choice, without the support of the Abyss Rift, the Demon Army is a tree without roots, and it is only a matter of time before it is exterminated.

"You're quite right, but such a victory is something that can be achieved by one person." General Mu looked at the army on guard by the lake and did not continue, but his meaning was already clear.

It seems that General Mu needs a brilliant victory that can shock the audience, and this guy is not a qualified commander at all!

For Zhang Sheng, it doesn't matter if you win good-looking or ugly, victory is the most important, this is war! He doesn't need to be written into the military book!

But General Mu needs!

In a moment, Zhang Sheng understood the thoughts of this family son, the army of Zhenyuan City belonged to various factions, and it also belonged to the kingdom, but it did not belong to the Mu family. He wanted to use this to make a name for himself as a genius and give him more say in the military in the future with a brilliant victory.

And the battle loss ratio or anything is not in his scope of consideration, and these can be whitewashed in the war report. But how to fight in order to achieve the result expected by General Mu, Zhang Sheng still couldn't figure it out.

"However, we have too few troops available now, not even 10,000!" Zhang Shengzhong vaguely reminded General Mu that no matter what his purpose was, if he failed, he would not regret taking the medicine.

"You can choose not to participate, but in the next war, your territory will no longer be protected by the expeditionary force."

The expeditionary force has always been laissez-faire to the lord, and the lord does not have too many obligations and responsibilities, so naturally he cannot enjoy too many rights and interests. Isn't the constant destruction of the lords of the expeditionary force by the rebels the best proof of this!

Zhang Sheng is not sure how long this war will last, and how far the war will spread, if he falls out with General Mu now, the follow-up ......

The point is that the military development of the territory is currently in a bottleneck, and without new population growth, there will not be much change in the short term. Such a force is too fragile in the face of the abyss.

After much consideration, Zhang Sheng still decided to agree, no matter what, General Mu didn't want to be defeated more than him, he spent so much effort, if he messed up, the entire Mu clan would be embarrassed.

The empty rider immediately turned back and began to make plans.

However, on the way, General Mu proposed a deal to Zhang Sheng, in the next war, Zhang Sheng and his territory will not appear in the battle report, and the final spoils will be distributed to him, but there is no merit, of course, General Mu will give corresponding supplements, and the conditions can be mentioned by him.

Concealing the existence of his lord, is this an attempt to create a battle report for the destruction of the army?

For Zhang Sheng, the biggest role of meritorious service is to obtain a knighthood and improve the corresponding authority. After this battle, as long as the battle report is impartial, there is absolutely no problem for him to be named a baron, but don't think about it, it is a hundred thousand merits, but as a partial army, he will never be possible.

It's just that the baron's words don't have a big impact on the territory, Ran Chengjie's head is still in his hands, and as long as the fishing plan is successful, it will not be difficult to make 10,000 merits. Therefore, he agreed, mainly because he coveted those rare resources that were difficult to obtain even through unconventional means, and General Mu was able to obtain them.

After summoning the generals and finalizing the battle plan overnight, General Mu led the Jiaoying Air Cavalry Regiment to set off first. The ten psionic researchers who were originally responsible for sealing the rift in the abyss also acted together with the team of Jiaolong Village, and one of them was a grandmaster-level figure, who would further strengthen the ship and produce some special armaments before setting off.

Jiaolong Village sent 9,000 troops in this battle, with Qin Liangyu as the commander, Fengqing and Yan Guo as the auxiliary. Fortunately, it is a large shipbuilding, and each ship can barely carry 3,000 people, and all kinds of ordnance materials are also loaded on the ship as soon as possible.

This is already the limit, the territory cannot be completely empty, after all, there are still tens of thousands of slaves, and the remaining 3,000 soldiers need to defend Lingshi Fort and Jiaolong Village, and the pressure is not small.

Let's go!

……

The laying of the Demon Army pontoon bridge is progressing quickly, and most of it has been completed in just three days, and there are many simple boats in the middle to be fixed, at least it doesn't look like a tofu slag project. After all, this is in a high-martial world, and a lot of common sense of reality is not common here.

When the boats in Jiaolong Village approached the pontoon bridge, General Mu had already led the air cavalry regiment to entangle with the demon army for a day.

Air cavalry with high mobility and air supremacy will definitely make everyone want to vomit, and without equal air power, the initiative will always be held by the other side. Conventional anti-aircraft means have no hit rate to speak of, and can only rely on numbers to carry out covering strikes. The bow regiment with [Will Lock] is a good choice, but the Abyss is known for its infantry, and although it also has some archers with strange characteristics, it can't target the air cavalry.

In fact, [Intuitive Lock] is also effective, but the premise is that it must have over-the-horizon strike capabilities, otherwise the range will not reach targets above high altitude. Moreover, the mobility of the archers was too poor for them to run after the air cavalry.

So if you want to deal with the Air Cavalry, it's best to use stratagem!

The strong people who are separated from the body can also deal with it to a certain extent, but don't forget, the leader of the air cavalry regiment is General Mu, who holds a divine soldier.

Although General Mu has not departed from the category of super-first-class, his own realm has surpassed the internal qi and separated from the body, reaching a higher level of "gathering qi to become a god", otherwise even if he had the help of divine soldiers, it would be impossible for him to break through the protection of the power of the army.

The [Force] value of 95 to 98 belongs to the category of [Super First-Class General], but in this range, it spans two realms! The [Force] value of 81 to 95 is the internal qi separation body, but more than 95 is the gathering of qi into the divine realm.

The demon army is now mainly divided into two parts, one to guard the abyss rift, and the other to lay pontoon bridges, according to the agreed battle plan, General Mu is mainly to contain the part of the demon army that guards the abyss rift to attract attention, and Zhang Sheng is looking for an opportunity to destroy the pontoon bridge.

Zhang Sheng didn't rush to attack, simply destroying the pontoon bridge would not have much impact on the demon army, and even if his existence was hidden, such a result would only be a dispensable victory written in the battle report.

General Mu's harassment has been continuing, although the impact on the demon army is minimal, but under the influence of the abyss breath, the demon army is short-tempered, after several teasing, there are always people who can't bear to provoke and shoot, the result is naturally needless to say, the body was thrown into the camp by General Mu from a high altitude. In the meantime, General Mu also had time to patronize the demon army on the side of the pontoon bridge twice.

After another three days, the pontoon bridge was finally opened, and under the effect of the power of the army, it was like a golden road. Armies cross lakes, explore roads, and plunder resources.

In order to achieve the ultimate goal, the demon army needs to gather a larger number of troops, and it is far from enough to rely solely on the abyss for logistics and supply, and the demon army never pays attention to sustainable development, kill them all! Grab the light! Whether it is a man or a beast, it is the same in their eyes, which requires a larger territory.

The crocodiles in this area have long been slaughtered by them, and they can only be regarded as ordinary water nature, so they have no way to continue plundering the lake, so they can only target the mountains and forests.

The night sky was full of stars, and a faint white mist rose on the surface of the lake, and the "golden road" loomed in the mist.

The finished shape of the three building ships slowly sailed out of the night, and small boats loaded with oil, sulfur, poisonous bombs, and flammable materials appeared one after another.

Fireship!

Jiaolong Village does not have the technology to manufacture boats, but there is no problem with small boats, and in order to deal with possible water battles, Zhang Sheng specially prepared a number of fireboats.

The Expeditionary Force's psionic researchers have carved summer etchings, burst etchings, and carminative etchings on these improvised fireboats, further enhancing the effects of spontaneous combustion.

Fire Attack!

This is Zhang Sheng's favorite, and it is the only strategy he can use to enhance the effect at the moment.

Attacking halfway is a tactic that is talked about a lot in the books of war, simple and effective. At present, many of the demon army have passed the pontoon bridge, as long as the pontoon bridge is cut off, the demon army that crosses the lake is just a walking feat.

Under the effect of the wind etching, the fireship continued to accelerate and crash into the pontoon. The power of the army is capable of resisting and neutralizing non-entities' energy attacks, but has no effect on entities.

Some of the demons who were passing on the pontoon overnight spotted the fireboat, but the most they could do was to shoot bows and arrows, and they couldn't stop the fireboat from approaching, but it was too late for the master to arrive.

In the end, almost a quarter of the fireship was destroyed, but the remaining three-quarters passed through the shroud of the force of the army and crashed directly into the pontoon. In the course of the impact, the oil tank shattered, and in an instant spontaneously combusted under the heating of the summer etching, and the flames swept away.
