The use of black powder in the military field has once again been sublimated.
Hundreds of explosive packets were all concentrated on several dangerous cliffs in Falling Eagle Valley.
The tens of thousands of heavenly warriors who entered Falling Eagle Valley were killed and injured numerous times. At the same time, the long canyon was divided into several sections by rolling boulders.
Especially the north exit was completely blocked by rocks, and the soldiers of the heaven trapped in the canyon could not get out at all.
They have no crossbows in their hands, and there are no long-range attack legions of destruction in their ranks.
In the canyon, they could only watch helplessly as the soldiers of the five southern Xinjiang tribes on the highlands on both sides launched attacks on them.
There is no room for them to hide.
The soldiers of the five tribes hiding under the rock wall to the east and on the high ground to the west can easily kill them with crossbow arrows or thunder rockets.
Hide under the rock wall to the west, and the soldiers of the five tribes in the east will start eating.
The Celestial Legion trapped in the canyon lost more than half in the blink of an eye.
Si Wenliang was also a courageous man. He ignored the trapped Tianjie soldiers and immediately retreated the troops that had not entered the valley to the south, seizing the southeast and southwest hills as soon as possible.
These two mountains are not high, but they are crucial. If they are occupied by the soldiers of the five tribes, their retreat will be completely blocked.
If these two mountains are controlled by heaven, they can attack the two wings of the southern Xinjiang army when advancing, and they can retreat southwards like mountains.
The Phantom Princess also has extremely high attainments in military affairs. She wants to stay with Zhan Ying in Falling Eagle Valley, and these two mountain tops are crucial.
At this moment, the warriors of the five tribes in southern Xinjiang are running desperately, and the mad warriors and skeleton warriors in the heaven are also running.
Both parties discovered that the other party was climbing on the other side of the mountain, and both wanted to gain control of the two mountains.
Gray did not expect that the enemy would react so quickly. Instead of rescuing his companions who were trapped in the valley, they immediately seized the southeast and southwest highlands.
Now both sides are racing against time.
Whoever reaches the top of these two mountains first will have the advantage in this battle.
The five ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang have lived in the mountains for generations, and climbing rocks and mountains are as easy as walking on flat ground.
But they were a bit far away, coming from several miles away.
In comparison, the Celestial Legion is relatively close.
One of his subordinates reported to Gray: "Chief, the enemy is almost rushing to the top of the mountain. We're afraid we won't have time to seize the southern high ground!"
Gray's eyes were gloomy and he said, "I saw it.
Give me the order to go down and knock down the enemies on the mountain at all costs!"
These two mountains are too important. Gray cannot give up. No matter how many people he loses, he must take them down.
In the race against time, the Celestial Legion is one step ahead.
Their vanguard reached the top of the mountain earlier than the vanguard in southern Xinjiang.
When they reached the top of the mountain and looked to the other side, the leading troops of the warriors of the five ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang were less than twenty feet away from the top of the mountain.
This short distance of twenty feet is the difference between life and death.
On the top of the mountain in the southwestern highland, a crazy warrior from the heavenly realm transformed into a wolf-headed human body, brandishing a long-handled giant ax in his hand and roaring like a wolf.
The dozens of mad warriors who were the first to reach the top did not choose to stick to the top of the mountain. Instead, they chose to rely on the favorable terrain and dive downwards to buy time for their subsequent climbing companions.
These dozens of mad warriors were whistling and roaring, holding giant axes, maces and other heavy weapons in their hands, mercilessly harvesting the lives of the warriors in southern Xinjiang.
The two sides started fighting more than ten feet away from the top of the mountain.
The warriors of Southern Xinjiang were at a disadvantage when facing the tall madman warriors. At this moment, they were attacking upwards and were completely at a disadvantage.
After dozens of madman warriors blocked the southern warriors, more and more heavenly warriors took advantage of this short period of time to rush to the top of the mountain and completely occupied it.
The battle in the southeastern highlands was almost the same, with the Celestial Legion gaining the upper hand.
Gray's order to capture the southwest and southeast highlands at all costs was also conveyed.
On the east slope of the Southeast Highlands, a tall Zhuang general ripped off his heavy rattan armor.
He roared: "Brothers! We must drive the enemy down before they can stand firm! The brothers of the Tianhu Army rush up with me!"
"Come on!"
"Come on!"
Countless southern Xinjiang warriors trampled on the corpses of their companions who rolled down the mountain, and screamed hysterically, like a black flood, flowing upstream, which was extremely tragic.
However, there are more and more heavenly soldiers on the top of the mountain. No matter how many people go up, they will soon turn into corpses and roll down.
The Zhuang warrior who was shouting just now, with dozens of people, only advanced less than three feet when he was cut in half by the giant axe.
While the two highlands were locked in a bloody battle, fighting also began at Wai Niutou Mountain, fifty miles to the north.
Tianjie's 5,000 forward battalion learned that the main force was ambushed in Falling Eagle Valley, and immediately changed from the rear to the front, wanting to go back to support.
At this time, the warriors of the five tribes on Niutou Mountain were already in place.
They used thunder rockets to push back the Tianjie forward battalion's efforts to go south for rescue.
Seeing the soldiers of the five tribes blocking the attack behind him, the commander of the forward battalion immediately changed his formation and moved hundreds of giant warriors up from behind, trying to let the giant warriors clear a bloody path for the army.
If it were in the past, the 20,000 warriors in Niutoushan would not be able to stop this heavenly forward battalion.
But things are different now, they have black powder in their hands.
This thing can cause fatal damage to thick-skinned giant warriors! Gray sits at the highest point of Eagle Valley, commanding the overall situation.
News of the battle at Niutoushan in the north has come. According to the current situation, it will be difficult for the Tianjie forward battalion in the north to break through Niutoushan in a short period of time.
Even if we break through, it will still take more than an hour to get here on the fifty-mile mountain road.
The Celestial soldiers trapped in the valley below were already trying to catch a turtle in a jar, so Gray focused his main attention on the battle for the two highlands to the south.
He did not expect that it would be these two highlands that ultimately decided the outcome of this battle.
According to the battle report from the front line, only about 13,000 of Tianjie's 30,000 main force entered the valley, and 17,000 people did not enter the valley and were outside the ambush circle.
Now that the Celestial Legion has occupied the high ground in the south, the southern warriors have been launching suicide attacks continuously, but to no avail, which makes Gray a little upset and angry.
He could not let these more than 10,000 heavenly main forces leave alive, he had to annihilate them all on the spot.
Otherwise, if these more than 10,000 Heavenly Realm soldiers sneak into Shiwanda Mountain in batches to fight guerrillas, the five ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang will not have a good life.
Therefore, Gray could only constantly dispatch soldiers to support the war in the south.
After about half an hour of fighting, Si Wenliang saw that the situation in the south had been stabilized, and began to dispatch the six-winged legion to attack the soldiers of the five tribes on both sides of Falling Eagle Valley from the air.
The phantom sees the battlefield clearly through the magic sound mirror.
When she saw the warriors of the five tribes suffering heavy casualties while fighting for the two highlands, she finally showed a smile.
She knew very well that this celestial army would definitely not survive, but for being able to kill so many enemies, it was considered a worthy death.
