Going down from the canyon halfway up the east slope, it is almost two miles away. The passages are quite narrow. The Tieya tribe and the Black Yan army want to use this narrow passage to attack the 80,000 elite Tuoba tribe in the valley. It is extremely difficult, not to mention that although the Tuoba tribe does not have many ships, it is still easy to transport three to five thousand soldiers and horses every day.
The tribes on the Hanhai Grassland are mainly nomadic and are not good at fishing in rivers, but this does not mean that the tribes will never build boats.
Baishui City, where the Tuoba Tribe laid its foundation, is backed by Dingbo Lake. It also captured a group of human craftsmen to build ships very early. At that time, it was to strengthen the control of Dingbo Lake. I did not expect that the land would be used at this time, and from Dingbo In Bo Lake, there is also a large river hundreds of meters wide - Baishui River - which flows from the opposite bank of Hailingyuan into Tongkou and then into the sea.
These two rivers, named Zishui and Yejiuhe, have quite open water, but the river channel is only two or three meters deep and the water flow is not fast. They cannot be compared with the Tong River, but they are better for Tieyajun and Heiyan. The army blocked the troops and horses of the Tuoba tribe on the west bank of the Tong River, providing great convenience.
Tuoba Banner chose to retreat to Hailingyuan to build a defense line, which was his deep intention. Standing on the top of the main peak of the southwest foothills, Chen Hai could faintly see the shadow of a sail from the extreme east, gradually along the course of Baishui River towards Tonghe River. As they approach, there should be reinforcements and supplies coming from White Water City on top of the few sail shadows.
Chen Hai was still not satisfied with capturing the Northeast Peak until the Tieya Army and the Black Yan Army fought their way along the east slope for more than three miles into the Dongpo Gorge, and finally defended at the mouth of a gorge with a width of only more than 200 steps halfway up the east slope. foot.
Seeing the two armies fighting together on the mountainside, Qi Hanjiang eagerly approached Chen Hai and said, "Sir, since I came to Yaoshan, I, Old Qi, have been either training the juniors or holding them in the underground palace. I haven’t fought a few tough battles, and I’m really frustrated, so let me fight in this battle!”
The Tuoba tribe's position on the mountainside of the southeast peak also began to get busy, preparing to push the huge rocks and trees prepared in the past two days down the hillside to prepare for the entire team of Tieya tribe and Heiyan. The generals of the army struck head-on.
The black-horned demon tiger took a breath and said lazily: "Are I the kind of person who doesn't keep his word? Tell me, what do you want to do!"
In comparison, the terrain at the northeastern foot of Hailingyuan is more steep. Not only does the mountain form a whole, standing outside the Tong River, the main peak is also more than 400 meters high.
Tuoba Qi stared at the iron cliff barbarians who were approaching the foot of the mountain from the south, and his heart became hard. Zuo Jiu, who was standing beside him, suddenly exclaimed and stared in shock at the Black Yan army approaching from the north slope, mouthing. They all trembled.
Seeing this scene, Tie Kun also smiled helplessly. He took out his halberd, drove the snow mastiff wolf, and personally led the five hundred mastiff wolf cavalry to rush halfway up the south slope. At this time, Yan Yuan was at the foot of the north slope, and he would also The spiritual sword was launched, and a hundred-foot-long golden glow shot out, and it circled halfway up the south slope, slashing down violently. All parties worked together to use the most violent offensive to force the enemy back halfway up the south slope first.
Chen Haifei flew to the gorge halfway up the east slope, looked at the enemy camp in front of him with cold eyes as dense as a spider web, and said to Tie Kun and Yan Yuan: "Tuoba Banner is not a famous general. He has plunged his troops into a desperate situation." The ground is still unknown—you build a dam at the mouth of this gorge to store water, and see if the enemy troops below can withstand the impact of hundreds of millions of tons of floods!"
More than ten years have passed since his soul was brought into this world.
The black-horned demon tiger didn't care, and rushed forward with Qi Hanjiang. Fortunately, the golden-haired demon ape and the black-scaled demon cunning rushed up like black lightning at this time, and on the left and right wings of the black-horned demon tiger, they rushed into the enemy's formation...
Due to the spread of secret martial arts techniques such as Yulongbian and Huju, the elite army controlled by Longxiang Camp and Dong Ning alone had 30,000 to 40,000 Tongxuan Realm warriors, and the Black Army led by Yan Yuan Most of the Yan army are old soldiers who have been tempered by many bloody battles. They have strong soldiers with Tongxuan realm cultivation base. The ratio is by no means lower than that of Jingjue army and Longxiang camp - they are currently the second largest army in Tieya army. The war camp is relatively weak and needs to be further strengthened in the future.
In addition to building more than a dozen military fortresses along the Zishui and Yejiu Rivers, the main forces of the Tieya Army and the Black Yan Army also crossed the Zishui and Yejiu Rivers from the two wings of the main peak in the west to maintain an offensive posture against the Tuoba tribe in the northeast. .
Qi Hanjiang had a flattering smile on his face, rubbed his hands and said: "Tiger Demon Lord, you see, I, Lao Qi, are going to the battlefield now, but there is no majestic beast to accompany me. I feel empty in my heart and feel that something is missing. Could you please trouble me?" Sir, could you condescend to go to the battlefield with me?"
Tuoba Qi turned around and felt a chill in his heart. From the charging line of the Black Yan Army, more than twenty black-winged giant vultures soared - shocking and chilling. Not these can carry three or four thousand kilograms on camels. The heavy weight of the giant vulture is the war weapon that looks like a bed crossbow placed on the back of the giant vulture, and there are three elite eagle soldiers on the back of each giant vulture, controlling these war weapons.
At this time, there was another whistling sound in the air. After nearly a month of recuperation, more than twenty monster beasts had long since recovered. At this time, they also rushed to Hailingyuan and entered the forward camp of the Iron Cliff Division. They opened their teeth and claws at the enemy. Tuoba tribe roared in the distance.
The sharpness of the finely forged iron heavy-pointed arrows is several levels lower than that of the quenched gold-hardened heavy-pointed arrows, but when activated by the Tianji Crossbow Arrow Box, the shooting speed is twenty times that of the elite crossbowmen.
There are also two main streams and rivers developed in the southwestern foothills of Hailingyuan. One flows eastward into the Tonghe River, and the other flows northward into the swamp area in the north.
The valley extending from the main peak at the northeastern foothills to the west bank of the Tong River is about thirty miles long. The narrowest point is less than one mile, and the widest point is only three or four miles. The mountains on both sides may not seem high, but they are extremely steep. …
Under the repeated attacks by the Tieya tribe and the Black Yan Army cavalry, the Tuoba Banner finally led 80,000 soldiers and horses, accompanied by a large number of slaves and livestock, into the northeastern foot of Hailingyuan close to the Tong River, while the Tieya tribe From the western foot of Hailingyuan, they slowly but surely approached the enemy.
Seeing that the army was about to lose its morale, Tuoba Qi made a quick decision and shouted, asking his left and right men to take Zuo Jiu down. It's just that although Zuo Jiu was timid, he still had strength. He shouted to retreat quickly and threw several of Tuoba Banner's followers away.
The Heiyan Army's reserve of gold-hardened heavy-point arrows has almost been exhausted. At this time, the arrows loaded into the arrow slots of the Tianji Repeating Crossbow are mainly finely forged iron heavy-point arrows.
However, Chen Li's purpose was not to compete with the Dong family, Miao family and other princes and counties, nor did he intend to rule Yanzhou in place of the Ying family. He knew in his heart that with such strength, he would face the blood demon catastrophe that could break out at any time. Still so fragile.
"The two of you work together and take down the main peak of the northeastern foothills at all costs. The subsequent battle will be easy." Chen Hai looked at Yan Yuan and Tie Kun and said.
On the second day, before the sun had risen, Tie Yabu began to take action. Groups of armored soldiers stepped out of the camp and followed the centurions and thousands of captains to assemble at the designated location.
Further down, there is a valley more than ten miles deep, with the Tong River as its back and steep stone ridges on both sides, like a natural city. The 80,000 elite members of the Tuoba tribe have their backs against the Tong River and are all stationed in the valley.
The Hailing Plain where Chen Hai is located is a hilly area to the south of this swamp tidal flat. It is about four hundred miles away from Mount Yao and runs southwest and northeast. From the perspective of the ground veins, it should be the remaining veins of Mount Yao.
Every year after the beginning of spring, the ice at the entrance of the Tong River melts and the sea tides are noisy; but when the weather calms down after the summer, the Tong River, which has received heavy rains and floods from the upper reaches, rolls in. The floods at the entrance of the Tong River are also monstrous and wanton, causing hundreds of miles of In the surrounding land, the demonic and barbarian tribes have no place at all and have become the home of wild birds and strange beasts.
However, the ships owned by the Tuoba tribe were still too limited, and it was impossible to pick up more than 80,000 soldiers and horses as well as a large number of slaves and livestock on the West Bank at once.
Seeing this scene, Cang Yi, who was supervising the battle in the clouds, was helpless. He waved his scale claws concealed by lightning and rushed down from the clouds to grab Tuoba Banner, who was supervising the battle halfway up the mountain.
At this time, Tuoba Qi had the intention to kill Zuo Jiu with a single blow, but Zuo Yang had just been severely injured. If he killed Zuo Jiu again, the Klie troops would be in chaos before the battle started, so he had to He personally took action, knocked Zuo Jiu unconscious, and had someone drag him down.
The sturdy wooden shield held by the Tuoba tribe's brave men might be able to last for several breaths of time under the heavy shooting of finely forged iron heavy-pointed arrows, but in the arrow slot of the Tianji Repeating Crossbow, there is a mixture of fine-iron heavy-pointed arrows and tempered gold-hardened heavy-pointed arrows. The number of the latter is less than one-tenth of the former, but it is enough to catch the enemy troops on the front line off guard and cause heavy casualties...
The black-horned demon tiger immediately trembled. Hearing Qi Hanjiang's intention, he wanted to ride it on the battlefield. If he really agreed, where was his dignity as a great demon in the demon core realm
When the darkness of the night was uncovered by the sun like silk, the elite vanguards of the Tieya tribe and the Black Yan Army had already assembled and were slowly advancing towards the main peak at the northeastern foot of Hailingyuan, forty miles away - their next actions, That is to station the forward camps of the two armies directly in front of the main peak of the Northeastern foothills, and directly launch a fierce offensive against the main peak of the Northeastern foothills.
Standing on the top of the main peak at the southwest foothills, Chen Hai looked at the stretches of military tents in the simple military stronghold on both wings, feeling filled with emotion.
Cang Yi and Granny He transformed into their true forms and soared above dozens of giant vultures. Tuoba Banner was unable to organize elites to kill the vultures in a surprise attack and destroy these crossbows. At this time, they could only hope that this The solid wooden shield that has been built over the past few days can play some role.
After the enemy army was almost exhausted by rolling stones and trees halfway up the mountain, Tie Kun was now preparing to send hundreds of the most elite mastiff wolf armor riders to the battlefield on the south slope.
The forward soldiers of the Tieya tribe and the Black Yan Army took advantage of the opportunity when the enemy troops were suppressed halfway up the mountain. They held up their giant shields and charged up the hillside in a relatively scattered linear formation. At this time, the Tuoba flag was also waving the mysterious flag. Soldiers, ordered the generals on the front base to use wooden shields to suppress the arrow array, push wooden rolling stones down the mountain, and crush the enemy soldiers.
There was a loud cry in the sky. Granny Crane transformed into a golden-winged crane and flew high, and began to monitor every move on the battlefield. The Tuoba tribe also released more than a dozen demonic vultures in the direction of the Tuoba tribe to deal with it, but those demonic vultures did not dare to go west. How far away, it was hovering in the air, which was considered a demonstration.
Chen Hai was helpless when he saw Qi Hanjiang eagerly inviting a fight.
The topographic map shown by Chen Hai is very three-dimensional. You can clearly see the topographic characteristics of the wide valley at the southeast foot occupied by the Tuoba tribe's more than 80,000 troops and a large number of slaves and livestock.
Several people around Tuoba Qi were in an uproar. They could not imagine how these crossbow-like weapons could explode with such great power, but Zuo Jiu had always been brave, so it would not be easy to scare him like this.
Chen Haizhen wanted to gather many forces into Tianshui County, and he and Tianji Academy were both inside and outside each other. Looking at the entire Yanzhou, this kind of strength can also compete with the Dong family, Miao family and other princely clan clans.
Qi Hanjiang said with a shy face: "Tiger Demon Lord, you lost the Qingxuan spirit stone to me. Both Ape Demon Lord and Black Cunning Demon Lord can witness this - naturally I dare not ask Tiger Demon Lord for Qingxuan." Lingshi, but can I give this Qingxuan Lingshi to the Ape Demon Lord?"
…
The few days of fighting side by side in Demonic Ape City also allowed them to see the strength of the monsters. Seeing them participating in the battle again today undoubtedly added a lot of chips to victory.
"It's that thing, it's that thing!" Zuo Jiu trembled all over, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world, and shouted desperately: "There is that thing at Qinhai Ferry that can fire thousands of arrows in a matter of breaths. It destroyed the city defense of Qinhaidu. Retreat quickly, Zongzi, we are no match for them."
Qi Hanjiang took a breath and interjected: "This old boy from Tuoba Qi is really sinister. He rushed to occupy this valley first. The later war will be difficult to fight..."
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Chen Hai stretched out his hand and released a ball of mysterious light. As the light curtain unfolded, the topographic map of Hailingyuan was clearly unfolded in front of everyone. The deployment of troops and camps on both sides were also revealed. All presented intuitively…
Only then did Tie Kun and Yan Yuan understand why Chen Hai wanted us to seize the Northeast Peak in one go. They looked at the stone ridges on both sides of the gorge mouth and thought that if they built a 30-meter-high dam at the gorge mouth, they would be able to reach Tuoba Above the 80,000 elite troops and tens of thousands of slaves and livestock, a high lake with a radius of 1,000 acres and a depth of 20 to 30 meters was built.
After careful calculation, including himself, including the demon ape and other demons in the demon elixir realm, besides Cang Yi, there are nearly ten people with Tao elixir cultivation in the Longxiang camp - Yan Yuan will never be willing to give up. The clan leader bowed his head and brazenly led the remnants of the Black Yan Army to the north, but he was still confused in his heart and could not see the future of the Black Yan Army. After Chen Hai revealed the cruel truth of the Blood Demon Tribulation, Yan Yuan's Taoist heart became stronger. Now, there are even signs of further breakthroughs in cultivation to the late stage of Dao Dan Realm. This part of the Black Yan Army commanded by Yan Yuan has naturally become a combat force that Chen Hai can rely on and trust.
Chen Hai didn't need any additional reminders. Tie Kun and Yan Yuan also knew in their hearts that before building the dam, the Black Yan Army and the Tie Ya tribe would first force into the valley from both wings, completely blocking the Tuoba tribe's 80,000 elite troops from breaking out from the two wings. aisle…
"Wait, wait! I won't ask you for that spiritual stone from the Tiger Demon Lord - Master, Master, please save me..." Qi Hanjiang saw that only he and the black-horned demon tiger rushed into thousands of enemy troops. Among the elites, he was thinking that he was seeking death, and he didn't know what kind of magic the black-horned demon tiger had used to prevent him from jumping down. He was so frightened that he screamed for help, asking the black-horned demon tiger to slow down. Don't just rush over and die, "I'm still a virgin!"
The first and second battalions of the Tieya Army and the remnants of the Black Yan Army led by Yan Yuan approached Hailingyuan from three directions. They also built defense lines on two lines with the main peak at the western foot of Hailingyuan as the core in preparation for the general expansion. Ba Banner's 80,000 elite troops and a large number of threatened slaves blocked the area north of the southwestern foot of Hailingyuan, where the Tong River channel intersects with the east coast of the Hanhai Sea.
Chen Hai stood on the main peak at the southwest foot of Hailingyuan and looked north. The stretches of desert water seemed to be endless. Countless birds and birds were inhabiting the weeds that were taller than people's heads. Occasionally, one or two huge birds could be seen. Demonic crocodiles swooped out from the depths of the swamp, hunting small beasts or wild beasts that inadvertently broke into their territory. There were also some huge giant eagles, soaring on the high plateau, warily staring at the two waves of uninvited guests.
Who could have imagined that it only took more than ten years for Chen Hai to go from having nothing in his early years to directly controlling 300,000 elite soldiers. This did not include the combat power of the Tie Ya tribe.
For more than ten years, he stayed in Yao Xing's broken body, moved step by step, worked hard, and finally looked like something today.
The Tuoba Banner led its troops to the northeastern foothills of Hailingyuan. In addition to the steeper terrain at the northeastern foothills, which is conducive to defense, the most important thing is that it has its back to the Tonghe River. After the reinforcements from Baishui City arrived on the west bank of the Tonghe River, the Tuoba Banner was stationed in Hailingyuan. Donglu is no longer isolated and helpless, and food and grass can also be solved through the Tong River.
The black-horned demon tiger bent down and let Qi Hanjiang sit on it, but without waiting for the mastiff wolf armor rider behind him to catch up, he led Qi Hanjiang directly towards the enemy army halfway up the mountain.
The morning breeze blew slowly up and down Hailingyuan, and there were faint sounds of waves coming from the distance. The early morning sun was already a little dazzling. Chen Hai squinted his eyes slightly. At this time, the Tuoba tribe was also dispatching troops to the main peak of the northeastern foothills to deal with the strong attack here.
The black-horned demon tiger roared, stood up, and raised its giant palm to slap the demon ape over. However, it heard a roar from Cang Yi, who was thousands of feet high in the sky. It was so frightened that it trembled all over, thinking that it would suffer some grievances today. Pay off the debt and save the devil ape from worrying about his stone in the future.
Twenty-eight Tianji repeating crossbows are mounted on the back of the giant vulture, which is equivalent to deploying five hundred elite crossbowmen directly in front of the enemy's formation. They can suppress the enemy's army with the arrow array and cover their own troops from the north and south. Poe stormed up.
"After the Tuoba tribe led their troops to occupy the main peak at the northeastern foothills, they gathered their troops and horses from the main northeastern peak to the wide valley on the east bank of the Tong River to hold on. They made it clear that they wanted to use the terrain to support them until the Tong River was frozen." Chen Li said.
There was cheering in the Tieya tribe. Until now, they still think that these monsters are the guardian monsters of their ancestral land.
At noon, Tie Kun received a notice that the Black Yan Army's forward camp on the north wing was also preparing to compromise, so he ordered five thousand-man troops to be dispatched from the camp, holding high their giant shields, and attacked from the gentle slope on the south side of the Northeast Peak to the top of the mountain. With the sound of desolate horns, dozens of monster beasts also moved out together with the army.
Seeing that Chen Hai agreed, although Qi Hanjiang was unable to take away the thousand wolf cavalry beside Chen Hai, he was still very excited and rushed to the forward attack position of the Iron Cliff Division.
Seeing this scene, Qi Hanjiang rolled his eyes, approached the black-horned demon tiger who was standing at the forward position of the Iron Cliff Division, and said: "Tiger Demon Lord, do you still remember that you owe me a favor?"
"How dare you!" The black-horned demon tiger was so angry that it glared at the golden-haired demon ape, suspecting that it was a bad idea for Qi Hanjiang.
The Tong River carries billions of tons of sediment rushing down the river every year. As the water flow slows down at the estuary, a large amount of sediment is deposited. Over the years, a tidal flat swamp with a radius of several hundred miles is formed at the estuary.
When the demon ape saw the black-horned demon tiger looking at him, he chuckled and said, "Isn't it just a ride? What can you lose? I, the old ape, are not interested in your broken stone, but if General Xiao Qi, If you want to give your piece of broken stone to me, the old ape, I will still be disrespectful..."
The Northeast Peak is still too narrow. Although the Tuoba tribe has 80,000 elites, they can only deploy more than 4,000 elite barbarians on the north and south slopes of the Northeast Peak. They simply cannot resist Cang Yi and the many big monsters and The fierce storm-like impact of the Tieya tribe and the Black Yan Army's forwards only lasted for less than an hour, and they suffered more than half of the casualties. They were forced to withdraw from the Northeast Peak, and watched helplessly as the commanding heights at the northeastern foot of Hailingyuan were destroyed by Tieya. The Heiyan Army and the Black Yan Army jointly took it away.
Hailingyuan is nearly two hundred miles deep. Although it is the largest hilly area at the mouth of Tonghe River, it is mainly composed of low barren ridges, most of which are between tens of meters to more than a hundred meters. The main peak at the southwest foot is even Both are less than 200 meters.
Cang Yi, Yan Yuan, Le Yi, Tie Kun, Tie Du, Qi Hanjiang, He Granny, etc. all flew towards the main peak of the west foothills at this time.
Chen Hai intended to use Qi Hanjiang to lead the guard camp, but after he took charge of the army alone, he had fewer opportunities to go into battle. This made Qi Hanjiang, a brave and militant general, panic. This battle was to suppress the enemy army from the Northeast Peak. It was necessary to send brave generals into battle, so Qi Hanjiang acquiesced to help Tie Kun.
