20. Bloody Battle All the Way (2)
In the distance to the left of the Tianling River, there are also people watching the fleet, they are also the same black mask, there are as many as seven people, one of them is very tall, a foot long, he frowned and said: "This time is really troublesome, these guys from the Yanhuang clan are actually training, and they are not in a hurry to hurry, it seems that they have already prepared." And one of the people on his left said softly: "My lord, although we can win some demon god armor like this, but we have offended the Yanhuang clan, is it worth it?" "This is nothing worth it, this battle, the Yanhuang clan knows the way, we also know the way, this battle must be fought, the patriarch of the Yanhuang clan, Han Wenzheng, is shrewd? This man is a terrible man, send me a message back, just say that the troops in my hands are not enough, if you want to win, send me more people." "My lord, the people above are already a little dissatisfied with the manpower you used this time, and you are afraid that you will ...... if you ask for reinforcements again. "I care about them to death, you are my subordinates, they are not my subordinates, I only care about my subordinates, what do I care about them? Those old guys are just afraid that they are dizzy, if the Yanhuang clan is really so easy to deal with, there is no need to wait for us to deal with it, the people of the Tianguang Empire have already swallowed them to the point that there are no bones left, I really don't know what those old guys think." ”
Several people around him showed a look of emotion in their eyes. The man then said, "Be careful, we don't take this first battle, let this first battle be fought by others, and we don't rush to die." "My lord, this is not good, in case ....... The man persuaded him again. "No case, if the Yanhuang Clan can't even attack for the first time, I'll gouge out my eyes. Let's go. ”
Two months later, the combined fleet of the Yanhuang Clan and the Elf Clan finally reached the upper reaches of the Splitting Mountain Gorge, and the 100,000 troops of the Tianguang Empire were also preparing to withdraw, and it was impossible for these 100,000 troops to go down the river again, if they wanted to go downstream, they would need to go around more than 3,000 kilometers more, so the commander who led the troops said goodbye to Han Wenzheng. Han Wenzheng sent it to a group of people, and also sent 100 million gold coins as a hardship fee, which made the 100,000 army very happy to go back.
After sending off the army of the Celestial Light Empire, Han Wenzheng summoned a group of important people for a meeting. In the battle of the Great Wall, Han Wenzheng said: "Everyone, our calamity has really begun, and this mountain gorge is our first dangerous pass, and I estimate that the enemy will definitely have the exit of the canyon to intercept us." "Everyone has reached a consensus on this point, such a good terrain, they don't have to be in vain.
Luo Gu Shi, the commander of the first division of the elven clan, stood up and said: "Your Excellency, what to do, you just need to give an order, we have no opinion, even if we all want to send us to death, there is no problem." "Master Shi's words are over, don't worry, we are brothers, I will never let everyone go to death, but this level must be difficult." The river is narrow and deep, and the current is very fast, and if they put something in it to sink our ship, we are afraid that our losses will be great, so when we pass by for a while, we should pay special attention to what special things are under the water and on the water. ”
Everyone received the order together, and Han Wenzheng said: "Ding Tieniu." "Yes. Father. "You lead your first squad to reconnoiter at high altitudes, monitor everything, see if there is anything special on both sides of the canyon, and if there is an ambush, come back immediately and report it. "Yes. Father. Ding Tieniu agreed, immediately retreated, and gathered his first class to set off.
Han Wenzheng said: "Lu Tieping. "Yes. Father. "Your task is to look around carefully and monitor all unusual people and things. "Understood, father, I'm doing it. "Very well, report any special circumstances immediately. "Yes, nothing special has been found so far, but after the last battle with the covert group, I think the enemy should also guess that we have special reconnaissance methods, so this time they should act in a more covert way, and our traditional reconnaissance methods are afraid that they will not be very effective. Lu Tieping expressed his opinion.
Han Wenzheng said: "I also understand this, but you won't care about that, I have my own arrangements." "Yes, father. "Zong Tiefang. "Yes, father. "You and Brother Shi led the First Division into the canyon as the vanguard, be careful along the way, and report back immediately if there is anything. Brother Shi, my son is still young, and there is something you still need to mention. "His Excellency the Patriarch is too polite, the clan brothers are both intellectual, it should be true that I cooperate with him." "Luogu Shi is very self-aware.
Han Wenzheng thought for a while and said: "Tie Fang, Brother Shi, the possibility of your first division being intercepted is not great, I estimate that the enemy will not intercept the troops of your first division, so after you pass through the Splitshan Gorge, you will have to deploy in the open area to receive our large troops through the Splitshan Gorge, at this time, you may be besieged by countless enemies, so you must be careful." "Yes, father, I know what to do, I will set up a circle to defend it, and wait for the large army to come and meet it. "It's best if you understand. Han Wenzheng was still not at ease, and said again, "Be careful." ”
After Han Wenzheng finished speaking, he said, "Shi Iron Soul." "Father, I'm here. "You and the troops of the Fifth Division entered the Splitshan Gorge in the second batch, and I estimate that the chance of your second batch of troops being intercepted is fifty percent, although it is not very high, but it cannot be careless. "Understood. "Brother Hua, everything is up to you. Han Wenzheng said to the commander of the Fifth Division, Jumu *Hua. "Your Excellency Patriarch, where is this? I promise that all actions will be under command. These are the words of your Yanhuang clan. Jumu said with a smile. Everyone was also smiling.
Han Wenzheng said: "Ke Tieshou." "Yes. Father. "You lead all the people of the second company, watch carefully underwater, call for help in case someone goes into the water, and in addition, remove the obstacles under the water, understand?" "Understood, father. "Go get ready. ”
Han Wenzheng gave the order again: "Iron sword." Sun Tiejian bowed down and responded, "Father, I'm here." "You command the rest of the first company, be prepared to take over, and answer the other side if there is a problem. "Understand, father, there is Lao's father on the Great Wall. "Don't worry. ”
Basically, there is no problem, Han Wenzheng said: "The rest is the problem of our Chinese army, we and the large army are the third group to enter the Splitshan Gorge, and the enemy will definitely intercept our group, so the army must be spirited and deal with everything carefully, so as not to let the enemy take advantage of it." "The elves don't know anything about the art of war, but the Yanhuang people still understand that intercepting the Chinese army, dividing the fleet into two, and then intercepting and killing at both ends should be the best plan, and Han Wenzheng arranges the troops according to this principle.
As for the troops of the second, third, and fourth divisions in the rear, they are responsible for intercepting the enemy forces attacking behind, and this is only a precautionary measure, the enemy may not have so many troops to fight in three battlefields at the same time, but it is also necessary to guard against it. Everything has been arranged, just waiting to pass through the ghost gate of the Split Mountain Gorge.
The 100 warships of the 1st Division slowly sailed into the Split Mountain Gorge, and there were 100 soldiers on each warship, these warships were all refitted, and they were much more flexible in terms of driving, and their combat effectiveness was not worse than that of ordinary naval ships, but in comparison, the strength was not so strong.
The Split Mountain Gorge is very narrow, only 3,000 meters wide, and the narrowest place is only about 2,500 meters wide, and there are quite a few reefs and the like, so only 20 warships can be allowed to pass through at one time. In addition, the current is extremely fast, so the distance between a group of ships and a group of ships should not be too close, at least a distance of more than 500 meters, in case something happens to the ships in front of them, there can be a buffer time, in this way, a hundred warships are lined up into a long line of more than 3,000 meters, it can be said that if you attack from the high mountains on both sides, it is very difficult to defend.
The current was fast and fast, and it took only three hours for the troops of the 1st Division to pass through the Splitshan Gorge without any danger. When the fleet of the 1st Division was about to reach the exit of the Splitshan Gorge, the fleet of the 5th Division began to enter the entrance of the Splitshan Gorge, and on the high mountains on both sides, 100 soldiers of the 1st Company of the Yanhuang Clan patrolled the air on the Thunderbird, carefully reconnoitring to see if they could find out where the enemy was, but they were still unable to find the enemy's position despite exhausting all methods.
The fleet of the 1st Division, after passing through the Split Mountain Gorge, assembled in the open area at the exit, and then formed a circle, all the weapons were ready, the trebuchets were loaded with stones, and the ballistae were also loaded with large arrows, and all the countermeasures were prepared, and their task was to intercept the enemy here, lest the enemy block the exit of the Split Mountain Gorge.
Three hours later, the troops of the Fifth Division also joined this circular formation, there are 20,000 people stationed here, plus there is a second company of the navy underwater, this combat effectiveness is not weak, there should be no problem, now, it depends on whether Han Wenzheng's Chinese army can pass smoothly, but everyone knows that the enemy will not let go of the unique terrain of the Splitshan Gorge, and if the enemy is not discovered, it does not mean that there is no enemy.
The Chinese army is the entire fleet, including the Great Wall, the total number of large and small ships has reached more than 2,900, which is good, lined up in a long line of more than 70 kilometers long, such a long fleet, it is impossible to take care of the Great Wall alone, if the enemy does not sneak attack, there will be ghosts.
Han Wen was standing on the bow deck of the Great Wall, and Qiushui was standing beside him, saying, "Husband, I'm afraid that the enemy has already begun to move. "I know that if you want to fight, you can fight, but the elves are only afraid that there will be casualties. "There's no way around that, it depends on who the other party is, if possible, settle it as peacefully as possible, I don't want to see any casualties among the elves." "Shui'er, I'm afraid that this matter will not be our turn. Han Wenzheng let out a long sigh.
Just after the Great Wall entered the middle of the Splitting Mountain Gorge, Lu Tieping, who was in charge of reconnaissance, reported: "Father, there are a large number of heaven and earth vitality gathered on the high mountains on both sides, and it is energy with a dark nature, and the strength of the energy is constantly increasing. However, the Life Formation did not respond at all. "These people should be the necromancers on the Western Continent who can stop children crying at night." See what they can do. In Han Wenzheng's words, only the undead troops summoned by the necromancer would not be detected by the life formation, because those were already dead people.
