Longshan Road is mainly hilly, with mountains everywhere, just like a dragon's body, all covered with scales, and no place is flat, so it is named Longshan Road. There is also a saying that there are eight mountains, one water and one field.
At this moment, Xiao Zhan had led his army into the hinterland of Longshan Road and stopped in the void where the terrain was relatively dangerous.
When he sent troops to Guangling Road and passed by Longshan Road, he specially left the army to observe the terrain of Longshan Road, and finally decided to fight King Yu's main force at this place.
Because here is the most dangerous terrain and the most turbulent water in the entire Longshan Road, which is very conducive for him to use the power of mountains and rivers to defeat the enemy.
Of course, if King Yu's main force can be led to Tianshan Road, it will naturally be more conducive to defeating the enemy.
But Tianshan Road is in the north of Xiliang Road. If the army is transferred to Tianshan Road and King Yu does not lead the main force to pursue him, then King Yu can march straight in and occupy Xiliang Road.
It can be said that more than 70% of the soldiers in the Xiliang army came from Xiliang Road.
If Xiliang Road is occupied by King Yu, and King Yu adopts the policy of killing everyone, then the Xiliang army will have no parents and family members, which will be a huge blow to the Xiliang army.
Therefore, Xiao Zhan could not take risks, so he chose to fight the main force of King Yu on Longshan Road to the east of Xiliang Road.
"Form up and prepare to meet the enemy!"
Xiao Zhan issued a military order.
The nearly 700 million troops immediately formed a formation.
The crossbowmen were in front, all holding crossbows, and the crossbows were loaded, ready to be fired at any time.
The cavalrymen were behind, all with their swords drawn and raised to their ears, and they were ready to charge into the battle.
"Report!"
The chief scout came to report.
"Your Majesty, Prince Yu's main force is only 500 kilometers away from our troops!"
"Explore again."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
King Yu's side.
Moving forward like walking on thin ice.
Because King Yu was worried about an ambush and did not dare to run too fast, so he sent dead soldiers to "clear mines" in front. The dead soldiers "cleared mines" while making sure it was safe, and sent someone to notify King Yu, and then King Yu dared to lead his army to advance quickly.
After advancing a certain distance and catching up with the dead soldier, you can only slow down and let the dead soldier continue to "clear mines".
The attack on Tianhe caused 400 million casualties to King Yu's main force. King Yu was completely frightened and had to be cautious.
If another three to two hundred million people died, the number of soldiers would be equivalent to that of the Xiliang army.
