Chapter 166: The dust falls, and the troops are turned around
Chapter 166 The dust fell, and the troops were transferred
The pelican department is located in the outer area of the slope valley, because of the low-lying terrain here, so the Python River has formed a series of small lakes here, the deepest of these lakes is only two or three zhang, and the shallow water is only knee-free, but it is precisely because of the numerous lakes here that form a natural line of defense.
Lush aquatic plants, taller than a person, are all over the lakes, and the pelican department is built in this lake group, such a water area is the most unfavorable for the army to attack, because no amount of army can spread here, and the surrounding lush water and grass provide natural cover.
This kind of terrain is a battlefield where the horned crocodile warriors are good at it, but the crocodile tribe is blocked under the Python Hill Pass.
After the first battle of the python head village, Wu Zixu used the rune array to kill the two giant pythons, and after the defenders in the python head village lost all their support, they had to retreat in embarrassment and retreat to the python hill soil city, compared to the python head village, this python hill soil city is undoubtedly more solid, but it is more difficult to surpass half a step, but it is the defenders in the python hill soil city who released the biggest killer weapon, poisonous snakes, and poisonous mosquito swarms.
In the mountains and forests around Python Hill, the snake scale tribe has stocked countless poisonous snakes, pythons, and all kinds of snakes in it, and the number of these snakes has reached a sideways step, and it is precisely because of the existence of these poisonous snakes that this python hill has become a difficult pass to pass through, don't think about bypassing from the forest, that is the act of looking for death.
You can see the python coiled on the big tree when you raise your eyes, there may be a poisonous snake hidden in the dark grass, and even if you take a step forward, you may step on the iron-backed poisonous snake's body like a dead tree root, so to speak, take a step forward, you may encounter several poisonous snakes, it is estimated that no one will go into it to experience it.
In this case, Wu Zixu and his entourage encountered difficulties, not to mention attacking Python Hill Tucheng, it was a problem to hold the captured Python Head Village, and they could only hope that the wolf army in the north would attack from behind and open up the Python Hill Road.
But the pelican tribe is obviously not a soft persimmon, although Tan Daoji led tens of thousands of troops to oppress, but it is a little difficult to take this pelican tribe, the soldiers and horses under his command are all land athletes, when encountering this kind of water-criss-cross terrain, it is a little blind, and he can't get the strength of the faction.
In particular, the more than 10,000 soldiers of the snake-scale Tusi army who retreated from the foot of Mao Mountain retreated into it, but it greatly strengthened the defense here, which made Tan Daoji's weak water power unable to open the situation at all.
"Shao Hao Tusi, the five thousand soldiers and horses supported by the snake scale tribe have entered the pelican tribe, and from the news from the scouts everywhere, the snake scale tribe has sent a large army to help, if we don't take the pelican tribe within two days, it will be difficult for us to kill into the valley!"
Tan Dao Ji Yan can not know this, but against the snake scale tribe, he is not the main force this way, but a partial division, and the effect of luring the snake out of the hole is good, but whether the beheading plan can be implemented smoothly, Tan Daoji is a little worried.
In a fairly complete room in the Tusi Mansion that was not lightly destroyed, Leng Zhuo sat on a bamboo recliner, beside him, the snake scale girl Tusi Yin Ling'er knocked on Leng Zhuo's thigh like a maid, and not far away, Yin Ling'er's mother, the previous female toast, the great elder and the big sacrifice, these three women who could almost decide everything in the snake scale tribe all stood there respectfully.
Last night's fighting, the blood has not yet dried, on the square around the sacrificial temple, the blood of the giant python stained the entire square, the huge body, has not been dealt with yet, but this one, the snake scale tribe has raised a hundred and seventy or eighty years of giant pythons have all hung up, and the rest are some giant pythons in the growth period of more than ten zhang, which can be said to have suffered heavy losses.
Leng Zhuo's strength made all the people who witnessed last night's battle gloomy, and they couldn't muster up the strength to resist again, but Leng Zhuo Liwei's goal was achieved.
"Right now, the most important thing is to appease the tribes in your name, I need your strength, and at the same time order the soldiers of the tribes who are going to the front, continue to assemble, I will send people to the Wolf Hair Tusi Army, as well as the Xilin Crocodile Department, now everyone is a family, if there are any more dead people, it will be resentful!"
"Yes, Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, I will send someone to deliver the order later!" Yin Feng'er lowered his head and replied respectfully, while the other two were relieved, finally Leng Zhuo had no intention of suppressing the snake scale tribe, after all, the snake scale tribe had relied on strong means to subdue the tribes before, and after years of integration, these tribes and the snake scale tribe have been interdependent, but between the tribes, there is still a certain degree of autonomy, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be a few ambitious people to stand up, and then the snake scale tribe will lose its superior position in the valley county, although it will not decline all at once, but it is certain that it is not what it used to be。
"For the time being, everything is still business as usual in the Snake Scale Tribe, and you must also hurry up and do the affairs of the servant army, if there is nothing to do, just retreat!"
"Silver Wind Toast, you stay!"
Pelican tribe, the patriarch Cry Gu looked at the letter from the giant python city, the wrinkled face, couldn't help wrinkling tighter, and on the side, the young patriarch cried and peeked at the content of the letter, his face was also from surprise to puzzlement, and then frowned.
"Father, what does this toast mean, why can't I understand it!"
Cry Valley Yi had stayed in Shu for several years, learning the culture of the empire, and the Pelican tribe had grown a lot in his hands, which could be said to be thriving, but in this Xiegu County, the status of the snake scale tribe was unshakable.
"Maybe it's a reconciliation with the wolf, right?" Wai Gu Yi was also a little difficult to grasp, after all, before this, he had only received an order from the Tusi Mansion to block the other party's attack, and the Tusi Mansion was recruiting a large army to come to support, and it was only two days, and the order had completely changed.
"So fast, how is it possible?" Cry Tooth obviously didn't believe it, two days, even if the Tusi Mansion intended to negotiate with the other party, it would not be possible to achieve it in two days: "Could it be fake, the conspiracy of the other party's envoy deliberately made up these, so that we relaxed our vigilance, and then attacked while we were unprepared!"
When he heard this, he also nodded, and said: "I don't rule out this possibility, be careful, order all departments, don't take the initiative to attack, and send more people to be vigilant against the other party's deception, and at the same time, send someone to the Tusi Mansion to confirm whether the news is true!"
"Well, I'll do it!"
The same scene also happened in Python Hill Tucheng, after receiving a letter from the Tusi Mansion, the tribal patriarch guarding the Python Hill Tucheng was not sure, but while guarding, he sent someone back to the Tusi Mansion to inquire.
At the same time, the people sent by Leng Zhuo also contacted Tan Daoji and Wu Zixu.
"Huh, it seems that the matter of the valley has been issued, the order will go down, the army will be ready to pull out the camp at any time, and all the scouts from the four sides will be withdrawn, and you will not enter the water area without an order!"
Tan Daoji's heart was put down, it seemed that the Giant Python City had succeeded, but he didn't expect His Majesty to actually go to the Giant Python City, it seems that this time, the snake scale tribe in the Giant Python City has been subdued, if the next goes well, he will be able to have an extra seventy or eighty thousand snake scale toast soldiers and horses in his hands.
With these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, there are 200,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and it is almost difficult to sweep the Hushan Tusi Leader, and even draw one out to attack the Storm Bear Tusi Leader, Tiger Mountain, and Storm Bear from the flank and back, and more than half of the territory of Maolin Mansion will be included under the wings of Da Chu.
And with the continuous transportation of the Great Chu army by Longshan Dao, the Great Chu can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in Shuzhou, and then digesting it, out of thin air, the Great Chu can have more than 500,000 soldiers and horses in Shuzhong, and if the potential of each tribe is fully tapped, the number can be even more.
With this force, it can be crushed all the way to the west, and constantly expand the number of servant troops, in the past, the situation in Shuzhong, the outer eight provinces and the inner eight provinces fought and merged, the reason why it has been in a state of stalemate, a big reason is that the empire implemented the Tusi system, the barbarians are dismembered, divided by interests, and constantly inseparable in it, resulting in deep grudges between the Tusi tribes.
In this way, nature is like a piece of loose sand, unable to form a joint force, and can only have a draw with the eight mansions in Shuzhong, but once this force is twisted into a rope, the power that erupts from the outer eight mansions is enough to shock everyone.
Tan Daoji did not doubt this at all, the last thing that the barbarians lacked was warriors, because almost an adult man was a qualified warrior, and even a woman could be a warrior, no worse than an imperial soldier.
Equip the armor of Da Chu to these barbarians, and you can get a huge elite army, not to mention sweeping Shuzhou, even if it is sweeping Kyushu, it is enough.
And Wu Zixu, who received Leng Zhuo's handwritten letter, immediately ordered to withdraw from the python first pass after asking about what happened to the envoy, because it was no longer necessary to occupy this place.
"Angel, shall we retreat?" The crocodile king looked at the soldiers who withdrew from the stockade, his face was full of puzzlement, you must know that this village has been blocked by the crocodile tribe for decades, and it was not easy to take it, and he was not happy for a few days, so he was about to give up.
"Well, the snake scale department will fight side by side with us in the future, now we are no longer enemies, so there is no need to continue to occupy here, we will collect our troops and go back, ready to go south down the river, to the violent bear Tusi Ling, compared to this mountain forest full of snakes and insects, it is easier to make achievements there!"
When the crocodile king heard this, he nodded, there are really not many gnaws here, and the reason why he never forgets it is because his tribe has been competing with here for more than a hundred years, and outside, it should be a wider world.
