Chapter 57 Stalemate

10days ago traverse Novels 9
After experiencing the initial tension, the situation in the Jade Dragon Kingdom stabilized strangely.

The Yulongguan Grassland Alliance of Xiliang County has more than eight feet of attack. The city walls built along the mountain are helpless. The three major tribes of Chimeng, Silver Wolf, Wusun, and dozens of tribes of all sizes are the kings coming and going like the wind on the grassland. The powerful arrows shot by the strong bow are not inferior to the Divine Crossbow, but they lack the means to capture the strong city. Life on the grassland is used to moving around with tents. Where can there be any decent city?

Just relying on simple ladders and shields to climb the city, it does not threaten the Li family's western legion, which has experienced many battles and relied on the solid city walls. The Li family blocked the first day's offensive with the First Division. When the Li family urgently dispatched the Second Division from the north to the Yulong Pass, the offensive of the Grassland Alliance stopped.

The 50,000 grassland army that captured Minglun City, a small town under the Yulong Mountains in the southern part did not attack Longxi City, which was only one gang guarded by the Western Legion, but instead advanced the front thirty miles in two directions with 40,000 troops, occupied the two towns, Xinshi Town, on the two official roads of Longxi City, Ma'an Town, robbed everywhere, collecting food and grass, and the continuous grassland cavalry gathered from the gap in the Great Wall opened by Minglun City to the three towns... The head of the Li family, one of the four famous generals in Hualong, Li Xuanji, the commander of the Western Legion, sent a direct division and a guard corps to Longxi City, and the other two direct division corpses to guard Taihe Pass, a key pass from Ma'an Town to the eastward into Xiliang Prefecture.

The Golden Dragon Army used the Navy Division to defend Jiujiang Port and protect the river surface. After adding troops to Changyin City to 120,000 troops, it stopped increasing troops and confronted the 80,000 Jade Dragon Army of the Central Army of the Jade Dragon Kingdom.

The Southwest Legion of the Later Tang Army and the Jinlong Army were almost out of the way. After landing in Zijiang Town, they increased their troops to three divisions of 120,000 and advanced twenty miles, forming a confrontation with the First and Second Divisions of the Northern Legion of the Ding clan of the Yulong Army.

Perhaps both the Golden Dragon Army and the Later Tang Army were afraid that after fighting hard, even if they were defeated, they would be attacked by the Jade Dragon King Guards first. Therefore, they were not in a hurry to expand the results of the battle. As for why they did not continue to increase their troops, perhaps because the cooperation parties had their own ulterior motives and were worried about the safety of the rear route, the real inside story was unknown.

The first and second divisions of Daliang, which besieged Qingyuan City, launched a fierce offensive, but the 20,000 elite Yulong Army and 40,000 guards, led by Qiu Shuiba, resisted the fierce attack of Daliang Army for two days. After losing 6,000 people, the famous Daliang general Long Feiyang led the direct division from Yangjiang Prefecture, the Fourth Division of Meijiang Prefecture, and the Third Division of Maoming bypassed Qingyuan City, and the troops directly pointed to Baiyang City in Changlong Prefecture, the old nest of Qiu Shuiliu Division, which was stationed in Tenglong Port, two regiments of Qiu Shuiliu Division, stationed in Tenglong Port, one direct regiment of the navy division and the 20,000 guards did not dare to move.

In Shunde Prefecture, Long Feiyang secretly adapted the local guards into a reserve division to guard against the attack of Ding's attack from Nanjiang. However, the Ding clan did not dare to act rashly in the face of the pressure from the Later Tang army! Moreover, the East China Sea Army, which is also under the Long clan, has sent 160,000 people into Meijiang Prefecture, and Ding clan will not easily get angry!

The Long family is the most powerful family outside the Zhu family of the Daliang royal family. It became famous in Donghai County, east of Yulong River. Ten years ago, when the Five Kings divided the Tang Dynasty, they took advantage of the situation to cross the river and occupied Yunyuan County and Nanhai County with their own strength. Although each county only had three prefectures, its power was extraordinary!

The Daliang military system is the same as the Later Tang Empire. Each legion has five divisions and a total of 200,000 people. The Long family controls the western legion of the Daliang Kingdom, the East China Sea legion has 400,000 soldiers, and 80,000 navy members. If we had to face the three-sided pressures of the Qiu family, Ding family, and the Later Tang Nanhu legion (formerly Feng family), neither of the Qiu family nor the Ding family is the enemy of the Long family!

The Japanese slave army attacking Donggang increased to 80,000. They launched a strong attack on Donggang City from land and sea, attacking the city wall several times, and were killed several times to retreat to Donggang City. In the attack of the Japanese slave army, regardless of gender, age, status, high and low, as long as they can take things and use swords and guns, they all acted spontaneously, either defending the city wall under the organization of the Yulong Army, or helping to transport supplies and treat the wounded... The masters of Hualong major forces lurking in Donggang City also secretly took action to deal with the Jade Dragon secret spy masters to deal with the Ninja masters sent by the Japanese slave army!

When foreign enemies are facing the Japanese slave army, when they are facing the same hatred against each other, the crowd of intrigues in their usual strife has given up their past grudges and fought side by side, fighting with the Japanese again and again...

The city wall of Donggang was almost soaked in blood and turned into a shocking blood wall!

After the soldiers and civilians of Donggang were determined to repel the Japanese slave army's attack overnight and day, the veteran General Qiusu couldn't help but sigh that the people's hearts can be relied on, and the people's strength can be relied on, and they have a deeper understanding of the hidden powers of the people in Hualong Continent. After losing more than 20,000 people, the Japanese slave army had to suspend the offensive, set up a large camp outside Donggang City, and gather more troops...

The sudden war against the Jade Dragon Kingdom suddenly became a stalemate...

The sky was filled with dust in front of the First Division of the Guangming Army led by Xu Xiaoyao, the cavalry team led by Chang Shengqiu has been rising for more than a day. The cavalry squadron was divided into three groups, and it was unstoppable to assist more than 10,000 reserve personnel to disperse the guards of the towns around Sun and Moon City, and to carry out Hua Yinghong's order to seize the official treasury and grain, and release the official and private slaves to the northeast to twenty miles outside Beigang City, and to the east forty miles to Keelung City, to the south to the shore of Sun and Moon Lake, and to the north to the Zhenbao Strait. There are the hoof prints of the Free Army cavalry everywhere, which can be said to be a sword and a horse, with a majesty on all sides!

Nearly 2,000 carriages collected from Xigang, Jubao Town and Lingbao Town. Tens of thousands of young and strong people who were urgently requisitioned were under the command of Lu Jingwei and Liu Ju, who personally led internal affairs to Lingbao Town to take charge, went to various places with the Free Army and transported the reserve corps collected food and various daily necessities to Lingbao Town. After arriving, the official slaves and private slaves were quickly organized, carrying them on their shoulders and on their backs, speeding up the speed of transportation.

During the war, the civilians will instinctively hide on the strong side and seek protection to seek protection on the Free Army to surround the Sun and Moon City, sweep across the Sun and Moon Plain. Even the blind man can see that he has an absolute advantage. With the moderate policies of the Free Army and strict military disciplines, no matter where he goes, no matter how many old, weak, sick and disabled people are unwilling to leave their hometowns, more than 90% of the population is mobilized and organized by the Free Army. He drags his family and flees to the official road of the Sun and Moon Plain west of Lingbao Town, marching on the traffic flowing with food and supplies. The fields on both sides are vast migrants.

In more than a day, in the middle of Zhenbao Island, except for Sun and Moon City, Beigang and some remote villages, more than 300,000 of the nearly 600,000 people moved to the west of Lingbao Town, and were included in the control of the Free Army. As for the grain after the bumper harvest this year, nearly 2.5 million stones of official grain in the official warehouses and 1.2 million stones of private grain were urgently transported to Lingbao Town. Because there was no time to transfer, it piled up in various grain warehouses and houses in Lingbao Town!

From Operation Lightning to Operation Grain Grab, the Free Army's action plan has undergone a major change. With food in hand, the back is backed by the steep Tianguan. The Free Army has been strategically invincible!

Xu Xiaoyao led the Guangming Army to the Sun and Moon City, Hua Yinghong had long been informed by the Feige hidden personnel from the Peach Blossom Palace in Keelung City. Since there was still a small town west of Jinsha River, nearly 10,000 people had not moved away. Only Chang Shengqiu led a small team of cavalry to cooperate with a reserve brigade to escort. He was slow and walked for a long time and was still more than 20 miles away from Sun and Moon City. Hua Yinghong ordered Chang Shengqiu to lead the cavalry team to intercept it, granting a plan to suspicious soldiers, and ordered the Batian special forces and the Taohua Palace masters to dispatch emergency response.

The whistle detective reported that the Guangming Army was approaching ten miles away. Chang Shengqiu ordered each cavalry team to drag a thick, long leaf-leaved branch that had been cut down in a row! Turning back horizontally on the plain nearly five miles, the dust rising from the branches could be seen from afar if it weren't for those who had been through the battle formation for a long time, they would have mistakenly thought that there must be thousands of cavalry or tens of thousands of people who had created such momentum!

If there is no plan here, you will definitely not be confused by the false appearance. But how can Xu Xiaoyao know the mystery? Sure enough, he stopped marching and sent out a sentry detective, but because the detective dared not get too close, how can he distinguish it clearly? After the Changshengqiu cavalry team performed for almost half an hour, he retreated. Only then did the detective find branches all over the ground. He understood that he had fallen into the delaying plan and was rewarded. Xu Xiaoyao ordered a quick pursuit!

The corpses are everywhere. Shi Heng leads the Yinming Iron Guard and more than a thousand elite members of the Guangming Army composed of core disciples to perform their light skills, quickly surpassing the galloping horse, and chase them at almost the same speed as the Changshengqiuqi team! The Free Army will snatch all the population and food, and the development of the Guangming Army will be greatly affected. At least they have to grab some back. As much as they can get, they will at least kill the Free Army and expel their anger. This is Xu Xiaoyao's idea

More than half a mile and outside, the back of Chang Shengqiu Cavalry was visible. Shi Hengti gathered his true energy and shouted anxiously: Brothers, work harder and kill! Yinming Iron Guard took the lead, almost every rise and fall was six or seven feet away. More than a thousand elite troops of the Guangming Army, who had high martial arts skills, followed closely, and instantly chased after only more than a hundred steps from the rear of the Cavalry Team!

The cavalry suddenly turned and rushed to the right

On the empty field, it suddenly seemed like a neat formation of three thousand special forces members more than one mile wide. Because their bodies were dyed with the same color as dust, when they lay on the ground, with the eyes of masters like Shi Heng, they could not find it even if they looked far away.

Kill! If you face the elite Jade Dragon Army, Shi Heng and Yinming Iron Guards may hesitate and wait until the brigade of troops arrive immediately before launching an attack. Facing these free troops who were slaves more than ten days ago, these arrogant and unresolved masters who have not yet escaped the habits of the world? In the concept of Shi Heng and others, as long as they approach the melee and fight, isn’t it as easy as cutting melons and vegetables?

Batian was patient and waited for Shi Heng and Yinming Iron Guard to take the lead to wait for more than 100 figures that flew into fifty steps. More than a thousand people behind also entered seventy steps before ordering to shoot!

Fifty magic crossbows, three hundred magic crossbows and six hundred strong bows, whoosh! Whoosh!... The rain of arrows that urged the death to seize the souls of the sky shot towards the bright army with murderous aura! Forty-eight arrows in the mountains, the forty-eight sun-shooting arrows pierced the void, flashed in a flash, and shot at the top ten masters with the fastest body movements in different combinations. The first one to bear the brunt of the corpse was attacked by ten powerful arrows!

No matter if you have three heads and six arms, a copper body, an iron body, you will be frightened by the rain of arrows in the sky!

In an instant, corpses were everywhere. Shi Heng's extremely sensitive spiritual sense sensed the murderous intent and danger brought by the ten arrows that were floating, which made his strong and tough nerves feel regretful and he couldn't help but scream: Oh no!

The new Free Army and the Light Army, which also belonged to the short-term construction, launched the first battle on the Sun and Moon Plain!
