On the evening of August 1, 443 Ayl, when the sun reluctantly set down the hillside and disappeared into the horizon with the last trace of afterglow, the defenders of the Shenlong Pass in the eastern coastal province of the Air Empire and the invading army of the Eternal Empire below took up arms and stepped onto the battlefield.

The commanders of both sides in the coincidence or inevitable thinking, the will to choose to the Shenlong Pass as the end of this war, the eternal empire Newman front has been cornered, must recapture the dragon pass to come back to life, and the seashore has other options, but the master of the seashore chose to rely on the Shenlong Pass this natural danger to resist the enemy, would rather consume a lot of materials and money to minimize their own casualties, the two sides after a series of preparations, finally ushered in the decisive moment.

On the city wall to the west of Shenlong Pass, which is not very long, it is densely packed with soldiers from the coastal provinces, and there are more soldiers waiting near the city wall, they are nervous one by one, and most of the equipment on their bodies is the standard armor of the Eternal Empire, but they are tied with fiery red belts and scarves around their waists and necks to distinguish between friend and foe in the melee, they are the first field infantry regiment belonging to the coastal province, and they are also complete recruits.

Next to one of the field infantry regiments was a phalanx of five thousand, arranged in a longitudinal position facing the wall, each of them holding one or more longbows in his hand, and carrying at least two pots of feathered arrows at his waist, they were the first archery regiment of the coastal province.

On the flanks of the First Archery Regiment were 10,000 reinforced, 10,000 Minotaur hoplites lined up in ten neat phalanxes, who had recently captured the Shenlong Pass from the enemy with their bravery and loyalty, and were already veterans who had experienced the baptism of blood and fire. They were once willing to give up their freedom in order to survive, but now they understand the value of freedom, they cherish life under the sun and laughter even more, and they have stepped on the battlefield that belongs to them without hesitation for this hard-won life. Because they are a member of the seaside, because they are free to live under the sun.

In the city wall of the pass, more than 30 heavy ballista carts in more than a dozen dark forts are ready, but the firing ports in front of the ballista are blocked with weeds and vines, because now is not the time for them to exert their might, they are like poisonous snakes hidden in the shadows, waiting for the critical moment to give the enemy a fatal blow.

Twenty trebuchets were fixed in two rows not far from the city walls, and after being tuned, their range and angle were almost perfect, and the stone projectiles they threw not only crushed the enemy with their own weight and speed. It can also roll down the hill and extend the strike range. Next to each trebuchet was a hill of huge oval stone bullets, and next to the hill stood several strong minotaurs, whose faces were covered with the marks of time and the wind and frost of fate, and they were responsible for carrying the stone projectiles to the trebuchet.

On the city wall east of Shenlong Pass, there are also a lot of soldiers, and the soldiers of these logistics troops are nervously and vigilantly watching the prisoner of war camp at the foot of the mountain to the east, always carrying those unguarded prisoners to take the opportunity to sneak attack.

The tallest building in the pass, the aerial platform. At this time, Wang Yong, Amy, Chris, Tiemian, Mu Sen, Nuosen and other territories gathered together, and everyone chatted and laughed, hiding the tension in their hearts and the depression before the outbreak of the war.

According to the previous agreement on cultivating newcomers proposed by Chris, Wang Yong and others stood one after another as the commander of the Musen Corps. No, it was behind Commander Mu Sen, silently watching him issue orders one after another.

After completing the pre-battle deployment, Mu Sen turned around. With a worried face, he said to Wang Yong and Chris: "For such an important battle, you really don't give any proposals? I have no experience at all, so you are not afraid that I will mess up?"

Wang Yong smiled and said, "Brother Mu Sen." Go your own way of thinking and let it go, with the genius of Chris, what are you afraid of messing up or not. Although he has many years of military career, Mu Sen, who is only a captain, is still very immature in terms of knowledge and observation of the battle situation, which Mu Sen himself is very aware of, and he is constantly studying hard, but he didn't expect that Wang Yong would hand over the command to him in this decisive battle and let him take full command of the battle, but Wang Yong and Chris did not give any advice, which made Mu Sen feel very bottomless.

Looking at his deployment, Mu Sen was still not at ease, and explained his layout, hoping that Wang Yong and Chris could find out the deficiencies and deficiencies for themselves to correct and improve. But before Mu Sen could speak, Chris said approvingly: "Well, the layout and defense echelon are very well arranged. First of all, lighting a bonfire outside the city as it used to do at night instead of turning on the lights and searchlights right now is probably intended to surprise and interfere with the enemy at a critical moment. Moreover, the defensive echelon is also well arranged, and the recruits of the First Field Corps are first allowed to resist the enemy's cannon fodder, which can not only strengthen morale, but also allow them to familiarize themselves with and adapt to the battlefield. This longitudinal array of the archery legion should be intended to take turns to avoid damage from overuse of bows and arrows, and at the same time, it can also keep them in sufficient combat effectiveness. And the Minotaur hoplites I won't say much, they are the strongest main station on our seashore, when the first field regiment kills the enemy's cannon fodder troops, they will step on the battlefield with full physical strength and fighting spirit to face the enemy's main force, and the first field regiment can also rest and replenish physical strength during this time. This is a very perfect arrangement, the guys in the Eternal Empire will have a hard time now, haha!" Wang Yong and the others also nodded again and again when they heard this, and gave Mu Sen a thumbs up without hesitation.

After listening to Chris's explanation, Mu Sen stood on the spot, because Chris's analysis was not bad at all, and he completely analyzed his thoughts. Knowing that at this time, Mu Sen understood why Wang Yong would use this Chris so much, because people have real materials and unique vision, Mu Sen solemnly saluted Chris and said, "Please give more guidance in the future." ”

Chris waved his hand embarrassedly and said, "I can't talk about what I don't point, let's discuss and discuss together." Mu Sen smiled slightly, took out a cigar and handed it to Chris, helping him light the cigar while no one else smoked. (To be continued......)
