Chapter 935: Concubine Azais heart is known to everyone on the road
The San Miao soldiers who fled had doubts in their minds at first as to why the Hongzhou legion had reached a kilometer away without a sound, but they soon figured it out. It must have been that all the people standing guard around them had been killed.
Already.
There is a mountain army in Hongzhou, which is best at destroying enemies invisibly and removing sentry positions. For the Chu Qin family, it is simply familiar and the door is too clear.
When Chu Qin was training the mountain troops, he told them, you can hide wherever you want, and he would just point to a location. If no one was hiding there, he would stand on his head and eat the lamb on the spot.
In the surrounding mountains and fields, all the Sanmiao sentries near Hongzhou were cleared away, leaving no one behind. The Sanmiao soldiers were also very proficient in reconnaissance. After all, they were tribes that often moved around in the mountains and fields. Therefore, after Chuqin was cleared
After picking up the Sanmiao sentries near Hongzhou, a short time passed. When the leader of the second circle of sentries did not receive feedback from the people in the first circle, it exceeded a predetermined time, so he immediately organized the sentries to go back and report the news.
Let the people in the back circle be careful, maybe there is something wrong in the front.
His judgment was correct.
Soon flying crossbow arrows appeared in the mountains and fields!
The sentries in the second circle told the third circle, and the third circle told the fourth circle, and so on. Chu Qin led the soldiers of Hongzhou to fight against the mountain sentries of Sanmiao in the Dongting Lake area.
In the evening of this day, I received news from the farthest distance.
There may be something strange happening to the people of Hongzhou! Sanmiao’s sentinels have lost contact!
Emperor Bai Miao and Huandou immediately organized their manpower, called up legions overnight, killed animals to reward everyone, and sent them to the front for support. But in the morning of the next day, shocking artillery fire bombarded Tucheng, and the Hongzhou people had already reached Yangyang.
The news of Dishan finally reached Dongting Lake at noon the next day.
Emperor Bai Miao urgently summoned the leaders of various tribes. There were also some newly acquired tribes among them. The passers-by who had attacked the Chu people in Sanlin, Changsha, Dazhu and other tribes were also among them.
Including the slogan of the expedition of the Hongzhou people, in the name of killing Huandou, they raised troops to conquer, saying that they would not target the Miao people, only Huandou, but since Huandou was hiding in the headquarters of Sanmiao, they were ready to fight and "save" them at the same time.
The Miao people were in water and fire.
Huandou's expression suddenly changed, but Emperor Bai Miao was very generous and said that the people of Hongzhou were all talking nonsense!
You just have to find a reason to hit someone!
I just didn't expect them to take action first.
"They want to plunder our population and use them as labor force! But how did this pass fall? Is this news true or false? It only took a moment to defeat the city and surrender???"
"It's not that fast to catch pigs in a pigsty!"
Huandou hurriedly gave Emperor Bai Miao a plan. At this time, it was no longer realistic for San Miao to fight back. He could only hold on for the time being. With the terrain advantage of Zhenling Mountain, the next wave of battle must be at Feishaquan!
"Feishaquan is a large highland and a natural place of defense. If the Hongzhou people come, we only need to hold on to the highland. They cannot conquer it from below, so the battle of Feishaquan is particularly important!"
Emperor Bai Miao nodded and said bitterly:
"What a shame, these words of attack treat me as an incompetent puppet. Everyone knows what Azai is thinking!"
Passerby tribe leader: "???"
Great Emperor, please stop slandering others, I am not a traitor!
The sentry who ran back was known for his strong legs, but he still died of exhaustion on the spot after crossing several mountains and rivers. Hongzhou is very close to Yangdi Mountain. After the Sanmiao outpost in Yangdi Mountain was attacked, a field appeared in the area in front of Sanmiao. Big white space.
Sanmiao's actual control area can only reach outside Zhenling Mountain at most. From Dongting Lake to Hongzhou, the fastest distance is Zuobao Mountain, Zhenling Mountain, Feishaquan... Yangdi Mountain
The Hongzhou people took root in the Yangdi Mountain area and began to move forward to build a supply transfer station. Sanmiao immediately gathered more warriors and asked the basilisk gods for help.
Many wizards gathered, and strange gods came holding green and white snakes with strange looks, stirring up wind and rain.
But the transmission of information takes time. On the fifth day of the Southern War, Hongzhou's army had already advanced to the vicinity of Feisha Spring!
In the frontline area, at Feishaquan, Benyun, who was leading people to build fortifications, dug many large pits and ravines in the surrounding mountains and fields, and a deafening sound came from the distance!
Two heavy cannonballs exploded on the fortifications on the high ground, smoke rose into the sky, the dust in the mountains continued to tremble, and huge crossbow arrows and continuous rain of arrows continued to be fired from Sanmiao's fortress.
At the same time, there were large rocks flying, as well as flint stones and torch wheels rolling down!
"There are also trebuchets and giant crossbows on the opposite side, as well as rolling thunderwood and fire wheels? There are also ballistae? It's incredible. Ballistae can't be easily copied. Is Sanmiao a heroic unit recruited into the carpentry industry?"
The giant city on the high ground is like an indestructible large fortress, surrounded by small fortifications, which are constantly firing crossbows.
This is the defense mode that Hongzhou used to resist the invasion of Sanmiao ten years ago. Obviously Sanmiao spent ten years to apply what he learned. Huandou is on the opposite side, which is also important for the opponent to quickly use the same version of Hongzhou's tactics. reason.
"Feishaquan is part of the Zhenling Mountains, with many small mountains extending southward from the boundary, which are higher in the north and lower in the south...the highest point...there are five more prominent highlands along the ridge from north to south, and the east and west sides are steeper. This is an important commanding height to guard the front of the border east of Dongting..."
Zhenling Mountain, Baoshan Mountain, and Yangdi Mountain are actually all part of Tianyue Mufu Mountain. The mountain body runs northeast-southwest, with the Hubei Basin in the northwest and the Nanchang Basin in the east.
However, there were more than four thousand years between the ancient times and later generations. One thousand years was a time of great changes, not to mention more than four thousand years. Just like Yangzhou in this era was still a coastal city, half of Jiangsu was in the water.
"Highland No. 1 is Stone City. There are a large number of projectile weapons on the opposite side. Our bows and arrows can't shoot, and the ram is useless. The range of the artillery is too short. The cast iron cannon's long-distance attack depends on luck..."
"I didn't expect that Sanmiao, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, could also pursue technology. Where is the muscle guy from the body training school that I promised?"
People looked at the huge stone city. At this time, the highland became a natural barrier, and there were several small highlands around it, forming horns with each other.
A fierce attack could be defeated, but many people would be killed or injured. Yu Zai refused the requests of other leaders to fight, and also refused the help of the Qi Refiners, and said that it was not the time to cheat yet.
So, I saw five hot air balloons floating in the sky, where the crossbows could not reach!
A hot air balloon was equipped with yellow powder explosives and floated over from a high altitude. Yuan Zai was measuring the wind speed when a greeting came from Stone City:
"Come up if you can, Hongzhou people, don't let grandpa look down on you!"
Ben Yun laughed wildly. After measuring the wind speed, Ju Zai asked someone to raise the flag and prepare to send a signal to the hurlers on the hot air balloon.
Then Yan Zai began to calculate the distance from himself to Shicheng to determine how much time his legion would have to charge after causing chaos.
Ruzai raised his thumbs up and pointed at Shicheng.
This is a simple visual measurement method.
Ben Yun was hiding in the city. He had excellent eyesight. He was very surprised when he saw Ruanzai giving a thumbs up to him. Then he burst out laughing and showed off to the Sanmiao warriors:
"This Hongzhou person is just like that. Look, this Hongzhou leader gave me a thumbs up and praised me!"
