Chapter 1020 Battle (3)

The three thousand miles of Jingshan is located at Jingjun, at the intersection of Chujun, and is adjacent to Yanhu Lake in the south. Jingjiang River originates from Jingshan, passes through Yanhu Lake and enters Wantao River.

In late March, a series of blue whale-class and silver shark-class iron-armored warships swam up the Jingjiang River and entered the Lihu Lake, occupying Laojun Mountain on the northeast of Lihu Lake to establish a water camp.

Laojun Mountain is also the southern camp of the Beiling Army on the eastern foot of Jingshan. In addition to the warships and boats that cover the sky and the sun, the land camps are rolling and stretching for more than 60 miles north and south, with two million soldiers stationed there. At the same time, a city that controls Jingshan and Yanhu Lake is built here.

Beiying is located on the northern foot of Jingshan Mountain, with 1.8 million elite troops.

In addition, there were 1.8 million soldiers scattered in several broken cities west of Jingshan that were destroyed by demon soldiers. While rebuilding the city, gathering refugees scattered in all fields to reclaim land and stockpile, while guarding against demon soldiers that might cross Jingshan and flow to the east coast of the Flying Star Sea.

Jingshan is stretching for three thousand miles. Although it cannot be compared with the majestic mountains and rivers that stretch tens of thousands of miles, such as the Zibai Mountains, Wanxian Mountains, Shiwei Mountains, Dayan Mountains, Hengduan Mountains, Yunling, etc., the terrain is also extremely steep, with strange peaks and dangerous ridges and deep forests and valleys. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is not conducive to the Beiling Army's most advantageous Tianji combat vehicle to launch its battle, nor is it conducive to the Beiling Army's advantageous forces spreading its superior forces.

More importantly, after the demons launched a winter offensive, a large number of clans and ordinary people who were stranded nearby and had not evacuated northwards, all fled from surrounding prefectures and counties to Jingshan. They wanted to avoid the demon disaster, but at this time they were inevitably unfortunately fallen into the hands of the demon soldiers on the west route, becoming consumables of blood food and blood refining array.

In addition, hundreds of miscellaneous demons were driven into Jingshan, and the Western Demon Soldiers would not be afraid of any problems with replenishing supplies at least until the next winter comes.

On the south bank of Wantao River, millions of demon soldiers, led by Guixi Demon Lord, set out from Wuhou Ridge, bypassed Yinhun Ridge, and continued to move westward. In late March, the sentry horses had entered Jingshan and established a stronghold on the Maozhen Mountains on the other side of the Lake.

Last year, Chen Hai once hoped that the Anxi Defense Forces and Vietnam-Korean reinforcements could resolutely enter the Maozhen Mountains to establish a defense line.

In that case, Jingshan and the south of Hunan are suppressed by millions of elite Anxi troops, which means that when the demon soldiers launch a winter offensive, the soldiers and horses will never dare to easily enter the area west of Jingshan.

Even if the demons crossed Wantao River and launched a large-scale offensive last winter, the ordinary people west of Jingshan still had the opportunity to escape, and at least 20 to 30 million people could die less throughout the winter.

Or the Lu family and the Yue Dynasty did not think that the Beiling Army could easily withstand the winter offensive of the demon clan, or the Lu family and the Yue Dynasty wanted to use the demon soldiers to weaken the remnant power of Liuyang Palace, or the Lu family and the Yue Dynasty themselves did not have the courage to resist the demon soldiers head-on. Last year, the Anxi Defense Army and the Yue Dynasty reinforcements not only did not push the defense line to the Maozhen Mountains, but now they have allowed the demon clan to establish solid strongholds in the Maozhen Mountains and gather a large number of troops.

The intention of demons to gather troops into the Maozhen Mountains is also obvious. In addition to further threatening and attacking the Anxi County and the southwest part of Beiling, it is obvious that they also do not feel that the Beiling Army will annihilate the Western Demon Soldiers before winter.

At this time, they gathered in the Maozhen Mountains in large numbers. When the next winter came, they could gather three to four million demon soldiers directly cross the river and go north, and rescue the demon soldiers from the west as quickly as possible.

At that time, Qinhu Mountain, Wu Zhidong and others led 500,000 to 600,000 to the northwest of the king's army at the western foot of Shiwei Mountain. They used the dangers of mountains and rivers to block the main force of Xuanyin Valley demon soldiers, which was almost ten times more than him, in the Lock Dragon Pass for two and a half years.

The demon clan has every reason to believe that the Western magic soldiers with 170,800,000 elite troops can take advantage of the dangers of Jingshan Mountain until after winter.

Moreover, the demons established strongholds on the northern foot of the Maozhen Mountains on the south bank of the Wantao River. They were only more than 3,000 miles north of the Jingshan Mountains. They could gather 20,000 winged demon elites there, and could fly across the Wantao River at any time and reinforce the demon soldiers on the west road.

The devils' plan was quite satisfactory. If the Beiling Army was still at the level of the three coalition forces of more than ten years ago, it would be impossible to annihilate the western demon soldiers who had completely retreated into Jingshan before winter, and even in winter, they were not qualified to fight in the field with elite demon soldiers of the same size in the snow. However, the Beiling Army at this time, with the three coalition forces of more than ten years ago, there were two concepts.

The area originally controlled by the Western Demon Soldiers was located in the northeast of the eastern foot of Jingshan Mountain. The several blood-refining arrays formed could only cover the eastern foot of Jingshan Mountain and the deep valleys of the northern foot of the mountain. Chen Hai directly used the Fengyan airship to send troops to the vicinity of Xiushi Peak, the main peak of the middle foot.

Before the demons could react, Chen Hai sent 200,000 elite soldiers, 500 heavy-bore cannons with a range of about 100 miles, and 50 four-pillar demon-killing arrays near Xiushi Peak, directly compressing the living space of the western demon soldiers in Jingshan by half, and occupying the commanding heights of Jingshan, limiting the demon elites on the south bank of Wantao River to enter Jingshan at will.

Then there is a tough attack on one mountain and another.

Heavy-bore crossbow and six-bore heavy-mounted crossbow are only conducive to close combat. The Blast Flame Sphere cluster arrows used for far-fighting have been improved. After each Blast Flame Sphere cluster arrow is activated, the flame jets will sweep hundreds of tiny gold-tempered spikes, which are ten feet in a radius of ten feet and have considerable lethality against elite demon soldiers below the level of the Demon School.

The initial offensive started with Xiushi Peak, covering the heavy artillery from Xiushi Peak to the hilltops and surrounding areas where demon soldiers were stationed. Almost tens of thousands of Explosive Sphere Arrows were consumed every day.

Then, in the sword cultivation camp, with the assistance of the air warships of the Shintian and Yuxu, tens of thousands of martial soldiers surrounded the newly transformed Scorpio chariots, and fought bloody battles with the demons on every mountain and valley.

The Scorpio chariot is actually a combination of traditional puppet beasts and crawler-type Tianji chariots. Le Yi first created a preliminary aircraft when the Black Yan Army led troops to fight.

Compared with Tianji chariot, the eight mechanical giant feet extended from the side cabin of the Scorpio chariot can be suitable for rapid climbing and attacking operations in rugged areas. The casting is much more complex than ordinary heavy Tianji chariots, with more staffing and easy to damage. In the past, Tianying City in Yanzhou only tried to produce land use tests for three to five hundred vehicles, and there was no condition to carry out large-scale mass casting.

This is also mainly because in the past, the human race focused on defense and did not have too urgent demand for Scorpio chariots.

However, with the production capacity of the Tianji war machineries of Beiling County at this time, the casting of Scorpio chariots was quite complicated, but at the same time, the chariot workshops in Tianying City, Wanxian City, Xinhailing City and Lingzhou were also harassed, and the monthly output was more than three or four hundred vehicles.

Chen Hai concentrated more than three-quarters of the Scorpio chariots produced in the chariot workshop every month to Jingshan for mountain combat to make up for the shortcomings of human military soldiers who were unable to form large-scale formations in rugged mountains and fighting in close combat, and were far weaker than demon soldiers and generals.

In addition to the large number of new types of Tianji war machines being put into the battlefield, one after another, the hard battles were fought. Although the Beiling Army had always suffered heavy casualties, there were more generals and soldiers growing up. As a whole, the Beiling Army had a stronger fighting will and his fear of the demons was eliminated.

By May, the Beiling Army launched an offensive from the east and north to the west demon soldiers, forcing 1.5 million and 600,000 Western demon soldiers into Jingshan, and then launched a battle of mountaintops and valleys from the east and north.

The dangerous terrain only slowed down the attack speed of the Beiling Army, but could not defeat the combat will of the Beiling Army.

At this time, the Beiling Army had gathered more than five million soldiers and horses outside Jingshan. Although there were no more than one million soldiers who could enter the depths of Jingshan at the same time to fight, there were a large number of Fengyan airships in the army, and five million soldiers could turn to the front-line battlefield for rotation.

Although the demons gathered more than 20,000 elite winged demons on the south bank of Wantao River, the Beiling Army's battle bird camp was weakened to only more than 3,000 battle birds and two floating battleships, but in April, in addition to the more than one million navy and elite cavalry and infantry gathered along the north bank of Wantao River between Hailing and Tianshui, led by nearly ten heavenly true lords such as Qin Hushan, Yuan Zhou, Yuan Yanxue, Qin Qian, etc., the strong men of the Beiling Army gathered in Jingshan, led by Chen Hai, Cang Yu, Xi Tongguang, Jidu, Zhou Wanqing, Ning Chan'er, Cang Yi and others, with as many as thirty people.

In just the Longxiang Army, the sword cultivator Huwei Camp, which exists as the personal soldiers of Chen Hai's guards, is mainly disciples in the late stage of the Piling Realm, and is the backbone of the Mingqiao Realm and Daodan Realm, and has also expanded to 10,000 people.

After the winter offensive, the demons' air combat elites suffered heavy casualties and were too weakened. At this time, only 20,000 winged demon elites and more than a hundred demon dragons were left. If they dared to break into the sky above Jingshan, it would be no different from seeking death.

By the end of August, the devil soldiers on the west road lost less than 800,000 and were compressed to the vicinity of Yuzhu Peak, the main peak of the northern foot. Almost all the peaks with Yuzhu Peak as the center and radius of two hundred miles fell into the control of the Beiling Army.

Considering the range of the heavy-bore gun, the living space of the Western Magic Soldiers was actually compressed into a circular area with a radius of less than 100 miles...

Only by carrying out an annihilation strike on the main force of the demon soldiers can the strength of the demon clan be weakened. Therefore, no matter how difficult the conditions are, Chen Hai still needs to organize the battle as much as possible.

On the eve of Chen Hai organizing the Beiling Army to launch a final general attack on the Western Demon Soldiers, the envoy of the Anxi Lu clan once again crossed the Wantao River and rushed to the Jingshan Camp to meet Chen Hai.

In addition to the previous Lu Gengshu, the envoy group, this time, also had Lu Shang's senior brother, Taiyan Sect's Taishang Elder, and the only Zhao Xiaozhi in Anxi who reached the peak of the sixth level of the heavenly rank and entered the upper third level in half a step...
