The Sacred Ding Chapter 362: Capture the mountain

() Helan Jianzong has established a sect in Helanchuan for thousands of years, and the history is even longer than Taiweizong. Even Taiweizong was once a vassal of Helan Jianzong until the Wuwei **** Hou Dongliang With the rise of Taiweizong, he escaped from the shadow of Helan Jianzong.

Although Helan Jianzong has risen in modern times with two Dao-born realm ranking figures, but Xiling Jianzun Xie Jueyuan, the elder of the Jianzong protector, has nothing to do with Huang Qiwei, the ancestor of the Huang clan and the head teacher of the Helan Jianzong. Mu, to thank Jueyuan for staying in Yanjing for many years and serving as deputy envoy of the Tianshu Yuan. He has not returned to Hechuan for decades.

More importantly, Xie Jueyuan and Huang Qiwei have been on the top of the list for more than 600 years. The cultivation base has already passed the peak stage, and Dong Liang can no longer be suppressed in the Northwest Territories. Helan Jianzong no longer has the glory of the first one in the Northwest Territories.

Relying on the Helan Jianzong, the Huang family has ruled Hechuan County under the Hexiang Army for more than two hundred years. Although there is a tendency to decline in the west, the background of the Hexiang Army, the Huang family and the Helan Jianzong is Still not to be glimpsed.

Seven years ago, Dongliang, the **** of Wuwei, in the name of chasing and suppressing the rebels who were attached to the Hexiang army, led his troops out of Yulong Mountain and occupied a large area of ​​land in the north of Hechuanling. But considering the Helan Jianzong And the background of the Hexiang Army, the plan to swallow Hechuanling in a short period of time was not possible.

However, after Emperor Yitian's 72 years, the situation in Yanzhou changed drastically, and the power of the royal family Ying clan and the Jingjun clan was severely weakened. It can be said that the powerful vassal of the border county has completely lost control, and Hexi will establish the Northwest Territory. The real overlord must hurry up before the royal clan Ying clan straightens out the contradiction with the Jingjun clan and revitalizes it. It can be said that there is not enough time.

Two years ago, Hexi was eager to marry the West Qiang country, just to free his hands as soon as possible to attack Hechuan County.

However, the horizontal rise of Juquanling has really accelerated the power balance between Hexi and Hechuan.

Whether it’s a celestial crossbow or a celestial chariot, the detailed manufacturing drawings are among the top sects. It’s no secret for a long time. The celestial chariot is okay. After all, the pavilion-class celestial chariot only needs to be consumed. Hardened gold iron less than 20,000 catties.

What's more, the foundation of Hexiang Army is not shallow. Both the clan and the barracks have built a large number of chariots. A little modification does not need to consume too much gold and iron. In the past two or three years, seven or eight are also transformed. Ten pavilion-class celestial chariots, but if the celestial fighter crossbow is to be widely promoted in the army, there is still a sufficient supply of quenched golden arrows.

Even if the Hexiang Army can squeeze out two or three hundred thousand catties of hardened iron each year, it can only cast two to three thousand pieces of hardened iron each year. How can this be consumed by a large-scale war?

For this battle, the Hexi Army stocked five to six hundred thousand gold quenched arrows in advance.

Led by generals such as Du Yu and Dong Pu, the Hexi striker’s offensive against Wenhubu was simple and effective. It used the warbirds battalion to control the airspace above the battlefield, and then used heavenly chariots, heavy armored horses and shields. The battle formation formed by the halberds advances to the many defenses built by the Hexiang Army in Wenhubu, and first competes for the empty field outside the city.

Zongmen Xuanxiu or Wuxiu strong, enter and exit the battlefield by imperial poultry, this is a common situation in the battlefield in the past, but whether it is sacrificed to the imperial magic sword or shooting with a bow, usually it will only fight evenly. In addition to the extreme disparity in the strength of the two sides, it is difficult to determine the trend of the entire battlefield.

What really changed this situation was the use of organ warriors.

On the Wenhubu defense line, the Hexiang Army also organized more than 500 additional sword repair disciples who were all above the Spirit Realm to strengthen the attack on the defense line.

Sword repairs above the Spiritual Realm and the Ming Aperture Realm can attack and kill distant enemies several miles or even 20 to 30 miles away with the sword, far exceeding the range of the Heavenly Chance Crossbow, but as long as the Hexi Army's Royal Birds can fight The bird can rush into the range of two thousand steps, and the golden arrow rain shot by the organ war crossbow is so strong and dense that ordinary sword repair disciples can resist it.

What's more, on the forward front of the Hexi Army, there are also three or five hundred Xuanxiu disciples organized. They don’t even need to directly participate in the battle and fight. They only need to use defensive techniques and seals to resist the spirits that the opponent sacrifices. A magic weapon of swordsmanship, assisting Yuqi Ruizuo to successfully advance forward and quickly can grasp the absolute advantage of occupying the sky.

Each consecutive shot of the organ continuous crossbow is almost equivalent to a thousand-edged sword talisman. The gold-hardened arrow reserved by the Hexi Army for this battle is equivalent to 10,000 thousand-edged sword talisman, which can make the forward and generals unscrupulous. Willful profligacy.

The speed of advance of war birds like the Black Feather Spirit Eagle is far beyond the ability of ordinary disciples Yufeng to fly. They fought back and forth several times. The disciples of Helan Zong Jianxiu suffered heavy damage, so they didn't dare to fight out from behind the line of defense and were abandoned. The fight over the battlefield.

At this time, the Hexi Army's heavy-armored cavalry, celestial chariots, and shields and halberds formed a battle formation, advancing layer by layer until they were close to the periphery of the enemy city by digging trenches, building walls, and setting up defensive arrays. , Build temporary defenses at a greater distance, and then push a heavy catapult to the front of the battlefield. In the close range of three or four thousand steps, use a boulder weighing more than one thousand catties, or even two to three thousand catties. , To destroy the defenders’ Fangzhai.

In just three days, the dozens of strong fortifications built by the Hexiang Army at the northern foot of Hechuanling and the Wenhubu line were removed one by one by Hexi, and the Hexi Army smoothly advanced to the innermost part of the Wenhubu line. Before the main city.

The main city of the Wenhubu defensive line is also the focus of the Hexiang Army in recent years. The strong city is never under Chishan City. Large defensive arrays are deployed, but apart from several firm and powerful counterattacks In addition to causing considerable casualties to Hexi soldiers and horses, it did not prevent the complete collapse of the Wenhubu defense line.

In the ten-odd days of offensive and defensive battles, nearly two hundred heavy catapults were destroyed in Hexi. However, Chen Hai’s first counterweight catapult that was put on the battlefield in Montenegro was too easy to manufacture. Hexi Army was on the Chishan line of defense. In the heavy battalion, several heavy catapults can be made every day and sent to the forward front.

Of course, the Hexiang Army also mastered the manufacturing drawings of the counterweight catapult, and tried to manufacture and deploy a large number of catapults on the line of defense to fight against, but the heavy counterweight catapult is not difficult to manufacture. However, the strength requirements of the manufacturing materials are extremely high.

In addition to the use of thousands of years old trees, the main parts are also cast with eight-level gold-hardened iron, so that they can withstand throwing thousands of kilograms or even thousands of kilograms of stone bullets from three to five thousand steps away. Heavy-duty rappelling crossbows consume thousands of kilograms or even tens of thousands of kilograms of eight-level gold-tempered iron for accessories.

At this time, Hexi can get an extra 100,000 to 150,000 kilograms of high-quality hardened gold iron from Lucheng every month. What does Hexiang Army use to consume with Hexi?

In addition, the operation of the heavy sling crossbow is mainly too simple. Whether it is mining, transporting stone bullets, or operating the sling crossbow to throw stone bullets in front of the enemy's position, ordinary people without a little cultivation can complete it.

This allowed the Hexiang Army to counterattack every time it went out of the city, although it could destroy several or even dozens of heavy stone throwing crossbows, killing and injuring hundreds or even thousands of heavy soldiers who operated the stone throwing crossbow, or Dead or captured, hundreds of elites will be damaged.

Compared with such a disparity in competition consumption, the Hexiang Army held on to the main defense line of Wenhubu for more than ten days, and it was completely unable to sustain it.

For more than ten days, Hexi lost more than 20,000 heavy soldiers, most of them were people who could replenish them at any time. In comparison, among the generals of the Hexiang army, three to four thousand were cranes. The Xiang Army was comparable to the Dao Ya soldiers' most elite combat power, and it could be said to have suffered extremely heavy casualties.

The Hexiang Army was eventually forced to abandon the main city of Wenhubu’s defense line and retreated from the valley to the depths of Hechuanling. Because the Hexiang Army could not control the air dominance on the battlefield, it withdrew from the defense line and moved to the Hexi Army War Bird Camp The several times of violent aggression also suffered heavy casualties.

Although the Hexiang Army also produced a large number of heavy shields and incorporated them into the army in order to prevent the coverage of the golden arrow rain, the Yuqi sharp soldiers came in by the poultry, and the tactics were flexible and changeable. It can be said that it is impossible to defend.

After Hexi occupied the Wenhubu defense line, Wuwei Shenhou and Shizi Dong Chou stationed in Wenhu City, using Wenhu City as a new forward base, gathering all kinds of combat materials, deploying troops and horses; and in Du Yu, Dong Pu and others Led by, the forward battle formation continued along the wide valley south of Wenhubu and continued to quickly extend to the depths of Hechuanling.

After the Hexiang Army suffered heavy casualties, the abandonment of the Wenhubu line of defense was extremely harmful to morale.

From Wenhu Port to the south, deep in the valley in the middle of Hechuan Ridge, although there are still six strong defenses along the Hexiang Army, none of them can support the attack of the Hexi Army forward For ten days, by mid-May, the Hexi Army opened the channel from the central valley of Hechuanling to the hinterland of Hexiangchuan.

The main force of the Hexiang army retreated, and the large and small Xuanxiu clan to which the Helan Jianzong belonged, in order to avoid being encircled by the elites of Hexi, at this time they had to choose to abandon the caves of Hechuanling.

These cave houses opened in the most dangerous place of Hechuan Ridge were originally built together with the walled city of Wenhubu to build a strong line of defense in the northern Hechuan County. Who would have thought that he would be killed by Hexi in more than a month? The army is ruthlessly and sharply torn to pieces?

Four or five hundred miles south of Hechuanling~IndoMTL.com~ all the way to the coast of Hechuan Lake is a Pingchuan River. There is no danger to defend. The weak Hexiang Army, although not suffering a devastating blow, still Hundreds of thousands of soldiers are available, but they dare not fight against Hexi in the plain city.

The main force of the Hexiang Army and the big and small clan lords in Hechuan County, after the Hexi Army forwards broke out of Hechuan Ridge, they were forced to split into two paths, all the way to the foundation of the Helan Jianzong, to Helanchuan and He Retreat in the direction of the Lanshan Mountains, all the way to Meishan at the junction of Hechuanling and Qinchuan County.

At this time, the Musashi Army reinforced the two soldiers and horses of Hechuan. They just arrived outside of Shining City all the way. They are preparing to attack Shi Ning, which was captured by Qin Muhou and Dong Shou, and open up the channel to enter Hechuan from the water. At this time, he was also forced to retreat hastily and opened up contact with Dong Shou’s subordinates.

And the other Musashi army reinforcements have just walked halfway in the two or three thousand miles of Meishan hinterland. At this time, they can only be forced to stagnate in Meishan. On the one hand, they accept the forces of the Hexiang army to flee south. Meishan chooses the dangerous valley mountain pass to build a stronger fortification wall to prevent the possibility of Hexi from invading Qinchuan County from Meishan...!!
