Yuan Meng didn't know that "release the power of military power with a glass of wine" happened in the long-deceased civilization. He would never know that Tianhao had a similar idea, wanting to use more gentle means to exchange wealth for the control of the clan from himself and the Zongyuan and Ling Xiao.

The last time the meeting was held in Heijiao City was a test. Unfortunately, Zong Yu's attitude was too tough, which prompted Tianhao to completely dispel this idea.

The clan domain is dead.

Yuan Meng and Ling Xiao's attitude was barely acceptable. Tianhao asked them to allocate troops from their respective ethnic groups to receive training, especially the soldiers of the Kuangniu Division who completed the training in advance to join the Eighth Legion, which was essentially weakening the two major divisions from the military level.

A large number of civilians moved to the north.

A large number of soldiers were sent to the front line.

Yuan Meng didn't know what Niu Lingxiao would think, but he had already seen it. The Pig and Deer clans were destroyed one after another, and the Tiger clans were temporarily defeated. I heard that the Lion clan had sent troops to rebuild Fangya City, so Tianhao's intention to send the Eighth Legion to attack the Eagle clan was very obvious. In the order of weak first and strong, the Lion clan must be at the end.

I need a chance to show and prove myself!

Yuan Meng smiled bitterly in his heart.

It was not out of helplessness, but just a little unwilling to accept it.

I was ahead of Tianhao, I was his senior. I was driven back and forth by a young junior... Anyone would feel uncomfortable if they were replaced.

But so what?

The result of not admitting defeat is death, and the Zongyu is the best example.

Yuan Meng felt that the best way to clear it up is military merits. Instead of spending every day in fear and anxiety, it is better to volunteer to go to the battlefield and use the heads and blood of the alien race to prove that he has no intention.

I can hand over the Mad Bull Department to you.

But you also have to make a promise that you will never hurt my family.

Yuan Meng felt that Niu Lingxiao was most likely to have the same thoughts and concerns as him.

The huge shelling was shocking, and the battlefield filled with strong smoke was far beyond Yuan Meng's imagination. Although he had served in the Lock Dragon Pass and had seen the muskets and cannons of white people in the south, he still felt that compared with the powerful cannons in front of him, the white people's weapons were garbage.

The gables in the distance were blown up, and cracks that were dozens of meters long were everywhere. There were constantly scattering bricks and stones, and the crumbling towers could no longer be maintained. They tilted in the distant screams, and then collapsed, stirring up dust in the sky.

The cold and emotional order came from his ears: "The second artillery team cooled down, and the third artillery team opened fire."

Yuan Meng knew that those thick tubes would heat up. His understanding of hot weapons was superficial and not profound. If he hadn't taken the huge lethality of the flintlock rifle, he still felt that the traditional long-handled battle axe and war knife were better used.

Artillery belongs to high-tech troops. During training, Yuan Meng saw young people sitting in the classroom for class. The witch-wizard in black is a teacher. There are strings of numbers on the blackboard, and there are many inexplicable lines. All kinds of strange names are difficult to remember, such as "parabolic", "geometric structure", "reverse side", "ridgeline", and "explosion area" in a mess... Yuan Meng was dizzy.

He gave up his dream of becoming an elderly artilleryman and instead received shooting training in a more practical way. The results were not bad, and he got a "excellent" evaluation in the final exam.

When he was young, Yuan Meng received long-term shooting training. He was once the best hunter in the hunting group.

The pass in the distance was obviously unable to hold on, and people kept screaming and falling down on the broken wall. Through the telescope, Yuan Meng saw an Eagle soldier close to the bombing point and lost his left half of his body. He relied on his survival instinct to scream and ran to the side. After a few seconds, he fell head-on.

Is this the power of artillery?

A bitter smile appeared on Yuan Meng's face again.

He didn't know how many times this was today... This helpless expression might always accompany him and become a solidified part of the stiffened facial muscles and nerves that cannot be reversed.

Ah Hao... It's more appropriate to call this title. He is pretty good and gave me a position of "Reserve Deputy Corps Commander".

The three words "reserve" are actually equivalent to deprivation of power. Yuan Meng did not care about this. He knew that he could not have real power in the army. However... this war was unexpected from the beginning and completely different from what he imagined.

The Eagle tribe is a powerful tribe.

The most popular saying among the Eagle people is: "We have the best archers in the world."

This is not a false pretext.

It was an extremely terrifying genetic talent that penetrated into the bones. The ancient mud template records the long history of the war between the Cattle Tribe and the Eagle Tribe. The Cattle Tribe was defeated and defeated. If it had not been developed with high-hard alloy armor and blocked the sharp bows and arrows of the Eagle Tribe, the Cattle Tribe would have long accepted the fate of being exterminated.

The Lion Clan rarely initiates large-scale wars against the Eagle clan, but only sends small-scale troops to hire pig people to fight small things in the border areas. This is also for the same reason. On the one hand, it is difficult to conquer the Black Feather Pass, and on the other hand, there is no better way to suppress the Eagle clan long-range suppression. Of course, the Eagle clan also has the same idea. They hire pig people as cannon fodder, considering the strong strength of the Lion Clan and the stable grain supply. Instead of rashly launching a large-scale decisive battle that is not worth the loss, it is better to attack tentatively first, and even if you lose, it will not hurt your bones.

Yuan Meng has always believed that he could not break through the Heiyu Pass.

But just under his gaze, the solid wall was blown up by a shell. Accompanied by countless splashes of gravel, a deafening "rattle" sound came from a distance. Immediately afterwards, the wall facing the Dragon Army slowly collapsed, as if a giant hand was hidden underground, pulling down all obstacles that were covering and blocking directly above.

Yuan Meng opened his mouth and widened his eyes.

This scene broke his fixed logical thinking for many years. Heiyu Pass, which was once regarded by the previous king as "at least 200,000 elite warriors must die to conquer", was broken for a day without even a day.

Taking a deep breath and enduring the choking smell of gunpowder, Yuan Meng put away his telescope, turned around and took two steps to the side, controlling his excitement, and asked fierce teeth in a trembling voice: "Legislature Commander, please let me go! This battle... I'll take the lead!"

Although there are all kinds of grudges and disputes with Tianhao.

Although my ethnic group, population and territory are all deprived.

Although I may lose the power in my hands forever, I am at best a wealthy and rich nobleman.

But I am a dragon clan after all.

I have my passion and ideals.

I want to join the war!

Looking at the old man who is too old to him, looking at his resolute and stubborn expression, he smiled slightly and nodded.

His Highness the Regent said in a secret letter: If Yuan Meng wants to show off, let him do it.

It's also a way to test and determine whether he is loyal or not.

Although Yuan Meng was old, his body was still filled with passion.

...

The Eagle tribe territory is close to the eastern city of Jinling City, outside the sea.

It was a clear night with stars.

A huge fleet arrived from the north. Under the guidance of the navigator, all kinds of ships avoided the reefs hidden under the water, and along the pre-explored waterway, they circled an irregular word "中" on the sea surface, turned from the sea surface in the east, and sailed to the shore.

The Intelligence Department lost two second-level spies and spent more than a thousand dragon gold coins in exchange for detailed geographical and hydrological data about this sea area.

Below the water surface here, the landform is in the form of a cliff falling. The slope extending from the land to the south for two kilometers is submerged into the sea like a barrier, forming a natural harbor.

Six first-class battleships sailed directly to the outer sea. They took the south as the main warning direction, forming a tight blockade line.

This is a large warship built on a large covered ship of 1,500 tons. It is also the first-class battleship with the Dragon Clan currently has the largest power and most artillery capacity. The interior of the cabin has been redesigned and the cargo hold is further compressed. It does not consider the navigation time and is purely aimed at the maximum power artillery fire. In the general editorial table of the Dragon Clan's Navy Department, this first-class battleship is called "fighting wolf".

Because the cargo capacity is completely compressed, the maximum navigation time of a single "Feither Wolf-class" warship is not more than five days when it is fully loaded, so a supply ship must be accompanied. This is due to the experience of the civilization era, combat and logistics are separated and each performs its own duties.

Fifteen small tonnage "Qinglang-class" warships slowly sailed into the offshore. The sailors on the deck lowered the boat, lined up the surrounding sea area with both ends of the fleet as the core, forming a fan-shaped search surface towards the surrounding sea area. They quickly landed and climbed the mountain along the route explored by the Intelligence Department... The whole process lasted for more than an hour, until the vanguard on the top of the cliff with various auxiliary tools lit the horse lantern and sent a light signal from a distant position. Zhengjiang, who was in charge of the flagship, finally smiled and immediately issued an order: "Everything goes well, next is the performance time of the Marine Corps."

This world is very different from that in Tianhao's memory. He felt incredible by the terrible disaster caused by the impact of the asteroid on Earth.

The Eagle Territory is a good example, especially on the east side of the sea, where mountains are formed between land and ocean due to crust movement and compression. The steep mountains and rock structures have become a huge barrier for the Eagle people to move to the sea.

They encountered the same problem as before: the mountains blocked the development of the northern lake area of ​​the cattle tribe and blocked the way for the eagles to obtain wealth and food from the sea. Although the eagles knew that drying the sea water would lead to salt and building fishing boats would lead to a large amount of seafood, they could not send large-scale immigrants to climb over the mountains and settle down at the sea.

Of course, young people can cross mountains and ridges, but even they are blocked by the steep cliffs near the sea and cannot complete the final path to conquest. It is a cliff as smooth as a mirror, hundreds of meters high. People can tie their bodies with ropes to the bottom of the cliff, but there is only a beach about two hundred meters away from the sea. It is too narrow to build a village, and it is even more difficult to contact other inland cities.

The Eagle tribes have never given up. Over the long years, they sent countless explorers to search along the south and north ends of the eastern mountains, hoping to have a pass to the seaside. Unfortunately, time and search records have forced the eagle kings of all dynasties to give up their extravagance——The cattle tribe in the north and the lion tribe in the south. In this section under their control, the damn high mountains blocked there like sentries, without any gaps.

The Eagle King was forced to give up his unrealistic ideas. The only thing they could do was to build Jinling City in the center of the basin formed by the eastern mountains as the main body. The land here is fertile and the water flow is abundant, which is a little compensation for the Eagle people's geographical advantage.

Two landing craft sailed out of the fleet and slowly approached the shore. This novel-designed ship hatch is located in the front section and is inclined. Apart from power, the overall design and function are all from the civilized era, and there is almost no difference.

Fully armed Dragon Warriors came out of the open hatch. They held rifles loaded with bullets and carried swords for fighting behind them. A total of two hundred people were caught by the ropes that the explorer had laid down from the top of the mountain, climbed up the cliff in sequence, and quickly expanded the alert range.

More landing crafts appeared, and more than 300 engineers gathered on the beach quickly. They used small rickshaws to transport explosives from the cabin and sent them to the bottom of the cliff. Several witches in black uniforms took out engineering drawings from waterproof animal skin bags, compared the marks made before, and guided the engineers to dig up the explosive placement points along the bottom of the cliff. The people at the top of the cliff also put down a few vine baskets connected and fixed with ropes. The engineers sat in with tools such as iron pickaxes, and the people on the mountain pulled up hard. The surface of the rope was marked with red paint, and they calculated the length in this way... In this way, the large vine baskets equipped with engineers were hanging close to the cliff, and people waved iron hammers and used steel pliers to carve out blasting holes on the surface of the cliff.

People are busy from midnight to dawn.

If Tianhao wants to unify the north of the continent, he must conquer the Eagle clan. Although the Eagle clan prince pursued his sister Tianshuang, it was his personal behavior after all. Moreover, the two of them had no results in the end and were left alone.

The Eagle Clan, with a total population of up to 1.5 million, is a hard bone. It is difficult to meet the requirements of Tianhao's short-term combat only by attacking hard from the direction of Heiyu Pass. Although the Dragon Clan army has fully changed clothes and has strong combat power, it is difficult to annihilate the enemy with a single attack. Once the Eagle Clan loses, the Eagle Clan city walle south of Heiyu Pass is very likely to give up its original place and completely turn to the Lion Clan.

Tianhao needs to wedge an army from the east, plus an offensive force in the direction of Heiyu Pass, cut off the Eagle tribe from the east and west sides, and then divide his troops to the south of the Eagle tribe territory to achieve the effect of encirclement.
