Turing Tuo's tenacity, or stubbornness, is far beyond Sauron's imagination.
Even after being slapped by Sauron, he still had no intention of retreating and insisted on marching towards Tianlang Pass.
Although the casualties caused by last night's air raid on Turingtuo were not large, it was at least a huge warning.
Warn Turing Tuo that Sauron has gunpowder in his hands, which can change the pattern of war. Although Turing Tuo has an army of 200,000, if a war really breaks out, it is hard to say who will win.
But Turingtuo still had no intention of retreating.
Faced with Turing Tuo's stubbornness, Sauron and others had to hold another meeting.
The topic under discussion is whether we should fight? Can we fight?
After many deductions, there is still only one result, a real big fight, with a winning rate of 40 to 50%.
And even if they win, they will suffer heavy losses, which will be very detrimental to the subsequent annexation of the southeastern provinces.
Because the amount of gunpowder is really not enough, Tianlang Pass is indeed a bit narrow, and things like super giant catapults cannot be used.
The only thing that can work is the oil war!
With an astronomical amount of fire oil and an army of more than 50,000, Tianlang Pass should be able to defend it. However, once Turing Tuo moves to the north to fight Fenglei Castle, or attacks from both sides, it will be really difficult to fight, and the winning rate will drop sharply.
Suddenly, Yan Naier said: "Husband, are you doing something to Tu Lingchen?"
Her words were very cryptic, but Sauron understood the meaning of her words.
After Turing Chen was captured, Sauron tampered with him. Now Turing Chen, like Li Li, is unable to get an erection.
However, Turing Chen can be recovered. As long as Sauron unblocks certain muscles and veins in his body and supplements with some medicine, he can regain his glory soon.
Nair meant to make a deal to make Turing Chen a real man again in exchange for Turing Tuo to withdraw his troops.
Sauron closed his eyes, then shook his head and said: "No, the chess piece Turing Chen cannot be moved yet."
Then, he slammed the table and said: "Hit! Since Turing Tuo is so stubborn and stubborn, let's beat him!"
Yan Yan said: "But if we really start fighting, our situation will be relatively unfavorable, especially since Turing Tuo can attack the Tianlang Pass and the Fengleibao defense line. Once he is determined to cross the river, our defenses on the east bank of the Tianshui River may block it.
Can’t live.”
Sauron said: "We tried every means to make Turing Tuo retreat, but instead they saw through our psychological bottom line, looked down upon us, and felt that we were weak and could be bullied. Even one or two air strikes could not change this situation. Then simply
Fight a battle, fight a big battle, and completely weaken Turing Tuo, so that he will retreat."
Beat Turing Tuo painfully and then make him retreat. This is Sauron's new strategy!
After Sauron made up his mind, everyone present immediately unified their will, changed their strategy, and completely defeated Turing Tuo!
…
After the Griffin air raid and bombing, Turing Tuo suffered a lot of casualties, but this caused Turing Tuo's 200,000 troops to march almost crazily. They had arrived at the 200-mile journey in just two days.
Then, an army of 200,000 people set up camp five miles away from Tianlang Pass.
Like Zhiwei before, Turingtuo completely dispersed the 30,000 cavalry to prevent the horses from being frightened and bombing the camp again.
Moreover, after his army set up camp, the first thing he did was to dig trenches.
In just two days, dozens of miles around were dug into holes, and most of the soldiers were hiding in the trenches.
As a result, Sauron's air strike tactics were basically useless.
Because the error in air raid throwing at an altitude of several hundred meters is extremely huge, throwing a gunpowder package into a trench is even more difficult than winning the lottery.
So Sauron stopped throwing gunpowder in air raids, and instead threw barrels of kerosene. Although some casualties were caused, they were indeed negligible for an army of 200,000.
From the air, Sauron looked at the Turing Tuo camp. Deep trenches extended in all directions, and all the mid-level and senior generals lived in caves.
The entire camp was like a hedgehog covered with sharp thorns, making it impossible for people to make a sneak attack.
Turingtuo is indeed much better than Zhiwei!
At least Turing Tuo's army camp was airtight, and there was almost no chance of a sneak attack.
…
After resting for two days, Turingtuo made a decisive decision and the army approached Tianlang Pass and prepared to attack the city.
The shocking war drums sounded again.
The Tianlang Pass and Fengleibao defense lines are completely different. They are much narrower. The city wall is only more than a mile long, but it is more than ten meters high, and its thickness is completely sufficient.
But the entire city wall is completely solid, with no bunker or shooting port inside.
The entire city wall can only accommodate three to four thousand troops at best, not many giant trebuchets, and not too many giant crossbows. Compared with the defense line of Feng Lei Fort, it is difficult to deploy.
So Sauron made a decisive decision and simply did not place the super giant trebuchets, but only placed dozens of medium-sized trebuchets.
The entire city wall was defended by soldiers.
Now the only thing that works is the fire oil attack. In order to hurt Turing Tuo, Sauron decided on a desperate plan.
A few days ago, before Turing Tuo's army arrived, he ordered thousands of soldiers to pour kerosene on the ground in front of Tianlang Pass.
On the ground that is more than a hundred meters long and nearly a thousand meters wide, millions of kilograms of kerosene are poured into a thick layer.
After the kerosene solidified, the ground was covered with grass and trees, and it looked normal. Any scouts who tried to enter the area for reconnaissance were shot, and the pungent smell of kerosene was covered up with the stench of hundreds or thousands of rotting corpses.
After the war, when Turing Tuo's army rushed under the city wall and the crowd was crowded, a fire turned hundreds of thousands of square meters into a blazing hell, which would surely burn Turing Tuo's army until ghosts cried and wolves howled, causing countless casualties.
Use astronomical amounts of materials in exchange for the fewest casualties and the greatest victory.
In earthly terms, it means using a thousand bullets to kill an enemy.
Use money to pile you to death, use countless bullets and artillery shells to pile you to death!
Now in the Kingdom of Raging Waves, only Sauron can fight such a war!
…
"Giant crossbow position, move forward!"
"Giant trebuchet, move forward!"
Following the order, dozens of giant trebuchets and thousands of giant crossbows from Turing Tuo's army moved forward.
Stop three hundred meters away from Tianlang Pass!
Tianlang Pass is shaped like a funnel, narrow inside and wide outside.
Therefore, the entire city wall is only five to six hundred meters long. However, the outer perimeter is two to three miles long, so a sufficient number of giant trebuchets and giant crossbow positions can be placed.
"Giant trebuchet, launch..."
"Huge crossbow, launch..."
"Swish, swish, swish..."
Hundreds of kilograms of stone bullets hit Tianlang Pass ferociously.
Hundreds of giant arrows shot wildly.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
The stone bullets hit the city wall fiercely, making loud noises, as if the entire Tianlang Pass was shaking.
Occasionally, a stone bullet hit the defenders on the city wall, causing blood and flesh to fly everywhere in an instant.
Hundreds of giant arrows were shot at the city, most of which failed to hit any target, but a few of them hit the target and directly penetrated two or three people, which was extremely tragic.
Tianlang Pass is too cramped, and the solid city wall has no place to place trebuchets and giant crossbows.
If you want to destroy Turing Tuo's giant crossbow formation and trebuchet formation, you can only rely on griffins.
"Crunch..." followed by a cry.
A dozen griffons flew into the sky, carrying hundreds of kilograms of giant gunpowder bags, flew over the Turingtuo giant crossbow position and trebuchet position, and dropped the gunpowder bags.
"Boom boom boom..."
There were violent explosions.
Although the accuracy was really bad, it still caused considerable damage to Turing Tuo's giant crossbow and trebuchet.
Just like that, Turing Tuo's long-range attacks came one after another.
Sauron's side, on the other hand, used more than a dozen griffons to conduct three rounds of air attacks, and then suddenly stopped!
Because Turing Tuo's dragon shooter actually climbed to the top of the mountain on both sides of the battlefield and shot the gryphon beast from a high position.
The entire battlefield is more than a thousand meters wide. After dozens of dragon warriors climbed to the top of the mountains on both sides, the shooting range immediately covered the entire airspace of the battlefield.
As a result, Sauron's griffin beast could only huddle in the Tianlang Pass and did not dare to fly into the air again.
Next, Tianlang Pass completely entered a situation of being passively beaten.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Turing Tuo's trebuchets and giant crossbows frantically bombarded Tianlang Pass.
There was a loud noise and the city gates trembled.
The whole situation suddenly became ugly. After Tianlang was locked up, he was beaten passively and could not fight back.
In this way, Turing Tuo's long-range energy bombarded Tianlang Pass for two hours, turning the entire Tianlang Pass city into a smoky mess and suppressing thousands of soldiers so that they could not raise their heads.
Seeing that his side had the upper hand, Tu Lingchen immediately sneered and said: "Father, Sauron is nothing more than that. I really don't know how the whole army of Zwei was destroyed?"
Turingtuo narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
After more than two hours of long-range bombardment, Turing Tuo finally waved his command flag and said: "Attack the city!"
The war drums became more passionate.
Turing Tuo's tens of thousands of troops charged crazily towards Tianlang Pass.
Countless siege vehicles, countless siege ladders, countless giant shield vehicles, and several siege hammers.
Following Turing Tuo's order, more than 40,000 troops rushed to Tianlang Pass like a court meeting.
It's not that the Duke of Turing is too small, but that the Heavenly Wolf Pass cannot be used at this time, and too many troops cannot be put into the battlefield.
The last time Yan Yan's army attacked Tianlang Pass, they only dispatched more than 10,000 troops.
At this time, Turing Tuo dispatched 40,000 troops, which were already like ants, filling the entire battlefield.
"Rush, rush, rush..."
Seeing this scene, Yan Yan raised his hand and ordered the medium-sized trebuchet to fire the gunpowder packets.
Suddenly, Sauron stopped him!
Since we plan to take the kerosene attack tactic to its extreme, we simply don't even need the trebuchet, nor the gunpowder.
He had poured millions of kilograms of kerosene on the battlefield before, and a thick layer had accumulated on the ground covering 100,000 square meters.
This is completely a fatal death trap. Then simply cut off the more than 40,000 troops in one pot and burn them all to death!
Then, a strange scene appeared on the battlefield.
Turing Tuo's 40,000-strong army charged wildly.
However, we did not encounter any obstacles or attacks along the way.
Even within a range of one to two hundred meters, the defenders at Tianlang Pass did not fire any trebuchets or bows and arrows.
After rushing into the death zone where Sauron had piled up kerosene, many soldiers were shocked as to why the ground seemed so sticky.
However, once the army started running, it could never stop.
With such an unobstructed flow, Turing Tuo's 40,000-strong army rushed directly to the top of Tianlang Pass.
"Bang bang bang..."
Battering rams began to smash into the city gates, dozens or hundreds of large siege ladders began to be set up on the city walls, and countless soldiers swarmed up like ants.
Turing Tuo is really surprised, why did he attack the city wall so smoothly?
Why is there no obstruction? It's so disturbing.
However, Turing Tuo had already thought about Sauron's possible use of fire attack and fire oil tactics.
First, let the most elite soldiers wear fire-proof cloaks. Secondly, half of each soldier carries a bag of soil. When a fire breaks out, the soil can be directly spread on it to extinguish the fire.
…
At this time, on the city wall, Yan Yan and others were extremely worried.
Sauron had just ordered not to shoot arrows and medium-sized trebuchets not to fire powder packets, allowing Turing Tuo's 40,000-strong army to rush to the city wall with almost no casualties.
But now, countless soldiers have climbed up like ants.
Once hundreds of thousands of soldiers climb onto the city, the trouble will be big.
At this time, the giant crossbow array of Turing Tuo's army was still shooting wildly at the top of Tianlang Pass, suppressing the defenders until they could not raise their heads.
Yan Yan said anxiously: "Master, it's time to light the fire, the enemy is about to climb up."
Sauron looked at the dense crowd of soldiers below and said, "Wait a little longer!"
He had to wait until Turingtuo's 40,000-strong army all rushed into this death zone of more than 100,000 square meters, where millions of kilograms of kerosene were spread.
Seeing that the battle was going so smoothly, Turingtuo was filled with uneasiness and said: "It's so strange, why is this happening? What's the smell in the air?"
Of course it was the pungent smell of kerosene, but it was completely covered by another smell, that of rotting corpses.
On the battlefield, Sauron placed thousands of corpses of the mighty army, which were already rotting and emitting waves of stench, which was enough to cover up any smell.
In Turing Tuo's view, this was Sauron's intimidation technique, which was completely boring and boring.
"Rush, rush, rush..."
"Tamper Tianshui City and destroy the Suo Clan..."
The battle was going so smoothly that the more than 40,000 troops attacking the city went completely crazy and rushed towards the city wall.
Finally, more than 40,000 troops all entered Sauron's death trap of more than 100,000 square meters.
Seeing a dense crowd of soldiers, they were like ants swarming under the city, scrambling for fear of falling behind.
Sauron sneered and said: "Throw the fish oil barrel!"
Suddenly, hundreds of warriors, braving the rain of arrows, smashed hundreds of fish oil barrels from the city wall.
It shattered after hitting the ground, and countless amounts of fish oil splashed out. Because he was worried that the solidified fire oil would not be able to ignite, Sauron also used tens of thousands of kilograms of fish oil to start the fire.
"ignition!"
"Swish, swish, swish..."
Hundreds of rockets shot down!
"Not good..." Turingtuo suddenly thought of that great sea battle. Sauron led hundreds of warships and hundreds of thousands of coalition troops into Devil's Bay, and then burned them all to death.
Although he didn't see that scene, he knew it clearly and it was unforgettable.
Seeing the rocket shooting down and thinking of the strange occupation before, Turingtuo's heart suddenly trembled and he woke up.
But, it's too late.
The rocket suddenly ignited the flammable vegetation on the ground, ignited the poured fish oil, and then ignited a thick layer of kerosene.
Millions of kilograms of kerosene burned fiercely.
The ground of more than 100,000 square meters instantly became a sea of hell and fire.
Sauron used the kerosene death trap once on the sea and again on the ground.
"Ah...ah...ah..."
The soldiers of Turingtuo tried their best to cover the flames with the soil they brought. However, there was a sea of fire everywhere and it was completely impossible to cover it up.
More than 40,000 soldiers were all crowded into this area of more than ten square meters.
Although some elites wore fireproof cloaks, it seemed like the sky was filled with fire and completely enveloped by carbon monoxide gas.
Countless screams, roars, distortions...
Countless soldiers struggled in the flames, roared, and fled frantically.
He ran away with his whole body on fire, but he fell to the ground and died within 100 meters.
Sauron's desperate plan worked again.
Turing Tuo's more than 40,000 troops were all buried in the fire!
