Chapter 115: Before the War
In the early morning, the bright sun dispelled the fog.
A drop of dew slowly swiped from the leaf and fell quickly.
In the distance, dense smoke rose from the mountains, and silver figures lazily walked out of their tents, and soon filled the aisles of the camp.
They sat around munching pancakes, drinking hot soy milk, and chatting like a market.
"Aren't you on a battleship today?" asked one of the heavenly soldiers.
"No, no. The heavenly soldier on the side shook his head: "I heard that we have to walk." Hey, I don't know who came up with the tactic. ”
"No, you still have to walk? It's nothing to mess around. ”
"You two, be careful what you say. The young man standing behind him patted them on the shoulder.
Suddenly, the two soldiers hurriedly gagged with the soy milk in their hands.
Glancing at them coldly, the young general said, "If I hear someone talking about strategy and tactics again, don't blame me for reporting to General Xue." ”
After the young general left, the two began to whisper again.
"This tactic was formulated by General Xue?"
"Isn't that right, I didn't look good when I saw General Xue mention it yesterday. He has long been accustomed to guarding the South Heavenly Gate all year round, how can he like this kind of landing march?"
"Who made that?"
"It should be, and the one who wants to go up ......"
The Heavenly Soldier looked up at the sky, and the other Heavenly Soldier immediately shut up in amusement.
Slowly, this soldier was divided into two roads, and the five thousand heavenly soldiers finally finished eating and began to make pre-battle preparations.
"Leave all the heavy equipment in the camp, don't bring heavy equipment, remind again, don't bring heavy equipment! Try not to bring anything you can, only bring your weapons and dry food!" A young general walked among the heavenly soldiers and shouted continuously.
In the distance came a general with a languid expression, a frown, and two mustaches.
When the young general saw the general, he hurriedly bowed down and bowed his hand: "General Xue, I slept well last night." ”
"Okay?" General Xue glared at him impatiently: "What a fart! What the hell is this mortal weather?" Hey, what kind of roast deer you got me last night, it made my stomach ache. If it weren't for your kindness, I would have whipped you a few times!"
When the young general heard this, he quickly shrank his head and lowered his head.
General Xue sighed heavily, frowned and glanced around the camp and asked, "Not ready yet?"
"Also...... It's not close. The soldiers have been accustomed to ship warfare for a long time, and this time they will inevitably be a little uncomfortable with land warfare. ”
"Hurry up, hurry up, it's done, go back to Nantianmen immediately. I can't stay in this place. Ay...... If it weren't for the fact that Nantianmen really didn't have any military merits, I wouldn't have been able to come here. ”
"The last will obey. ”
After a while, the 5,000-strong troops were finally put in order.
But there was also a fuss over the question of who would guard the camp.
Anyone knows that this time they are going to receive merit, how can they accept such a thing as running all the way to guard the camp?
Therefore, General Xue Tian proposed that those who guarded the camp would also be given the same merits.
This is good, everyone is vying to defend the camp, and after tossing for a while, Xue Tianjiang, who was already in a bad mood, went crazy. The end result was that all the soldiers were disrupted, and the heavenly soldiers were ranked according to their ranks, and the weakest ones were left to defend the camp.
There was still a lot of trouble like this, but the heavenly soldiers didn't dare to speak again when they saw that General Xue's face was getting more and more ugly.
So, the weakest five hundred were left to defend the camp, and the remaining four thousand and a half were all dispatched.
Finally, they set off, and a mighty silver procession began to wind its way through the valley.
Unlike the armies of the mortal world, this flying heavenly army said on foot, then it really was on foot - you know, their horses are all flying.
It hadn't taken a few steps, and there were already heavenly soldiers scolding and scolding.
The original decision to walk was to avoid the ambush being discovered, after all, the other party's generals were leveled, but the soldiers were not. The evil Jiao can't afford to produce enough warships, and land battles are not as good as ship battles, once they are scattered, they can't chase them with battleships.
That's why they chose the canyon as an ambush site. If it is surrounded, it will be served in a pot, and no one can run away.
But looking at the swaggering appearance of this army, I'm afraid it's not much worse than flying.
Among the green leaves on the hillside in the distance, the short beak curled up and stared at the silver army that was slowly moving forward in the distance, and took out a piece of jade from his waist and put it to his mouth.
"The sortie, indeed on foot, without heavy weapons, left the battleships where they were stationed. Follow the agreed route, but a little later than the agreed time. ”
"Got it. ”
"They've released the scouts! Two heavenly soldiers just flew over, what should I do?"
"Find more people, solved. Keep it clean and don't leave it behind. ”
"Understood. ”
"Also, it's good to reduce the frequency of the other party's reconnaissance, if none of the heavenly soldiers sent out go back, whoever becomes a general will find out that something is wrong. ”
"Got it. ”
......
In the valley dozens of miles away, the monkey slowly put down the jade slip and glanced around at the surrounding monster leaders faintly.
The leaders of the monsters looked at him intently, all of them clenched their fists, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Under the slope behind them, there was a large area of youkai under the same nervous tension that was pressed by the black pressure to the extreme.
So many youkai gathered together, except for the suppressed gasp, they didn't even make a sound.
"The other party is exactly as agreed, can you rest assured now?" the monkey said as he looked at them lightly.
"This ...... When are we not at ease, we must believe you!" said a snake spirit, swallowing its tongue.
The goblin leaders around him laughed, but they laughed a little dry, a little empty.
At the end of the day, they're still afraid.
The monkey did not laugh, but watched coldly, and saw that the leaders lowered their heads one by one.
Silence.
The lion spirit finally raised his head and held back a smile: "Brother Monkey, it turns out that you already knew that they were on this marching route, hahahaha, you have already prepared." Let's follow Brother Monkey, we will definitely win this time, right?"
"Yes, yes!" the leaders chimed in.
The monkey looked at him expressionlessly and replied, "I didn't know anything before, and I only got this thing last night." The solution was also thought of yesterday. ”
At this point, the faces of those leaders turned a little blue.
This time, it's really a life of death......
As soon as the whole atmosphere dropped to freezing, all the youkai were silent, suffocating silence.
After a long time, the lion spirit took a deep breath, trembled slightly and said: "Everyone, it's best to be mentally prepared, we went this time, only some of them can live, including myself, anyone can die." But if we don't go, we'll all die. ”
Silence again, silence like death.
"Fight!" shouted the elephant elf, clenched his fists.
"Let's work together to kill the Heavenly Army!" the tiger spirit stretched out his hand.
"Damn, don't die even if you die!" the black wolf spirit also stretched out his hand.
"Pull a few pads!"
"the whole family!"
Hands of different sizes came together, they came from different races, but they all had the same name - Demon!
All the leaders gritted their teeth and looked at the monkey with a pair of eyes.
"Let them, they can't eat and go around!" the monkey also stretched out his hand, looking at the leaders who were once again full of wildness, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "This is like a little talk!"
"Expedition-!" a hysterical roar soared into the sky!
After a while, this mighty demon army quietly opened.
Whether it is the leader or the little demon, they all have solemn faces, tiptoeing along, consciously choosing places where the sun does not shine to advance.
Those pairs of eyes carefully observed the movements around them, and with leaves in their mouths, no one dared to make a sound.
In the surrounding forests and on the hillsides, scattered demons stalked cautiously, silently passing messages in sign language.
Twenty thousand horses were moving, and the sound of the stirring could even be drowned out by the rustle of a gust of wind blowing through the leaves.
Three heavenly soldiers who had come out to reconnoiter flew over their heads, and they didn't notice that this army was inferior at all. However, they also didn't have a chance to get to the location of the demon army they had predetermined, because dozens of birds and monsters had already quietly followed.
The heart that jumped to the throat, the nerves that stretched to the limit, and the meticulous style of acting.
This qiē is just because they all know that this battle is a matter of life and death.
No one wants to die.
......
At this moment, in the clouds a hundred miles away from this army, a young general of the Heavenly Army flapped his wings and landed steadily in front of the canopy.
"Marshal, the Eastern Route Army has already been launched. ”
"Where's the West Road?"
"No movement yet. The troops on the demon clan's side attacked before dawn today, and the four warships had also moved west, as if to meet the Western Route Army. With all due respect, the troops of the demon clan seem to pay much more attention to this battle than the Xuan Turtle Clan. They were so heavily guarded that even the scouts we sent out were missing. ”
"Why are there only four? Didn't they have six when they set out?"
"There seems to have been a civil unrest in the demon clan's camp last night, and two ships were destroyed. The subordinates have just sent people to investigate, and thousands of people have been killed and wounded. ”
"Oh?" the corners of Tianpeng's mouth curled slightly, and he smiled, "What's the situation?"
"It's not clear yet. ”
"What about the Demon City, has the location of the Jiao Demon King been clarified?"
"The demon city is as usual, and even the defense is a little loose. The Jiao Demon King has been confirmed to be in the city. ”
"Well, got it. ”
"Marshal, what should we do now?" asked Tianheng, who was standing aside.
I only heard Tianpeng sigh lightly, looking at the green mountains in the distance, and said with a smile: "I started to hope that the demon clan won." These soldiers of Nantianmen should be taught a lesson. Just wait and see how they play. Monitor all parties closely and never let them know about our deposits. ”
"No!"
