Chapter 1042

Under the command of ghost Xi, the remnant soldiers of Xuanyin Valley demon clan and Tiancheng mountain have all advanced to the south of Wuhou ridge. The troops are constantly extending to the West on the south side of Wantao River, which means that the demon clan has tens of millions of troops and horses in hand this winter, which can be used to crush the southern defense line of Beiling county.

The generals and officials of the LV family did not agree to send troops eastward from the Tianqi defense line, while the ancestor of LV Shang and Liu Fen, king of Zheng of the Yue Dynasty, did not want to see Chen Hai at this time. The root cause was here.

If we say that resisting the winter offensive of the demon family is destined to cost millions of lives, no one wants such a heavy price to fall on themselves.

However, Lu's generals and officials did not expect that the Beiling army would act like such a hooligan. When they disagreed, they directly seized the materials and ships of the friendly army.

When LV Gengshu arrived at xinhailing City, he saw the river port inside the fork of Tongji canal on the west side of xinhailing. The first batch of more than 120 ships detained were parked there neatly, but thousands of generals and soldiers responsible for escorting these ships in Vietnam had been detained elsewhere.

At this time, countless civilian men were unloading a large number of materials from the ship and transporting them into Hailing city with baggage carts.

Well, it's obvious that this batch of materials can't be recovered.

LV Gengshu wanted to get these ships back with the guards and soldiers, and then talk about other things.

However, LV Gengshu and others flew to xinhailing city. They were blocked by the guards. They sent someone in to report that the king of Beiling Prefecture was no longer here, and the new garrison envoy Qin Qian was not interested in seeing them

Fortunately, Chen Hai, Fu Siyuan and others walked with Hu Wei, and there was a lot of movement. Anxi defense army also had spies on the North Bank of Wantao. LV Gengshu and others followed Chen Hai's footprints all the way and arrived at Wuchang City on the South Bank of the Nu Chuan river three days later.

The upper reaches of the Nu Chuan river is located at the Western foot of Zibai, which is more than half shorter than the Wantao river. However, the terrain on both sides of the Nu Chuan river is more steep, so the water potential of the Nu Chuan river is more fierce, such as angry water dragons and water Dragons rolling in the deep and wide river.

Wuchang City is located on the South Bank of the Nu Chuan river.

In the later period of the Liuyang Empire, the crown prince Shang Ke ensured the smooth progress of the northern expedition to the demon kingdom. Between Wuchang City on the South Bank of the Nu Chuan River and Tianshui City on the North Bank of the Wan Tao River, on the basis of some rivers, Jitian canal with a length of more than 10000 miles connecting the two major water systems was excavated.

This also makes the status of Wuchang City and Tianshui city extremely important in the northwest region, and it is also where the two capital protection envoys on the southern line of Beiling state are located.

LV Gengshu was more than 200 li away from Wuchang City. They were stopped by a team of denouncers outside the city. They were allowed to continue flying to Wuchang City after handing over the envoys and seals.

At this time, they found that they had not seen the mobilization information of the Beiling army on the front line of the Nu Chuan river for more than half a month. The huge number of troops and horses concentrated by the Beiling army in Wuchang city far exceeded their imagination.

The troops of the Beiling army are stationed on a grass ridge on the south wing of Wuchang City. Through the clouds, we can see the spread of tents in the camp.

At the foot of Caoling, there are 30 green whale class armored warships docked in a lake connected with Jitian canal and nu Chuan river.

The traditional Navy warships of Chong and Yue are mainly driven by the water defense array, supplemented by the wind defense array. However, the iron armor warships built in Fusang sea in recent 20 years are driven by the wind flame box with the prohibition of wind flame Tianji as the core.

In terms of protection, it also abandoned the time-consuming sealed and forbidden defense array, and used multi-layer watertight tanks and multi-layer decks to strengthen the performance of impact and damage resistance, so that the three islands of Fusang, led by nine prefectures, can be manufactured in batches, and the volume is much larger than the traditional Kunpeng class naval warships.

LV Gengshu knew that the blue whale class warships built by the nine prefectures and incorporated into the Beiling Navy were more than 200 steps long and 40 steps wide. Each ship consumed 40 million kilograms of xuanyang refined iron.

This huge thing was built very fast, but the cost was extremely expensive. They estimated that the green whale class armored warships built by the three islands of Fusang should not be more than thirty or forty.

After all, the Beiling army was very difficult in the early stage. It mainly relied on the material support of nine prefectures and leiyangzong to support and develop step by step. It was impossible to have too much human and material resources to make super warships that seemed not to be of special help to resist demons at that time.

LV Gengshu didn't expect that they could see 30 green whale class armored warships assembled by the Beiling army in wuchangcheng at this time.

Although each blue whale class armored warship does not have a closed and forbidden defense array that covers the whole, the engine room and the command side cabin at the bow are also sheltered by small and medium-sized defense arrays.

Of course, this is second.

The real terror is that the side of the cabin of the green whale class armored warship is densely packed with 100 heavy bore guns with a range of more than 100 miles, as well as the heavy bore crossbow and six heavy loaded crossbow that are dense like a hornet's nest in close combat

This is also the main reason why the two batches of nearly 200 ships of materials before and after Anxi, although there are nearly 20000 guards and horses, directly gave up resistance when they saw that the Beiling Navy sent out green whale class armored warships.

The green whale class armored warship can't compete. The strong in daodan may be able to punch a hole in the armor of the green scale class armored warship, but the problem is that they fight hard to break through one layer of armor, there are two layers of armor and three layers of armor, but they find that it is just a watertight compartment permitted by the abbot.

At this time, it may be necessary for the strong of Tianwei Zhenjun level to really tear up the defense of the garrison and attack the soldiers close, so as to dismantle a green whale class armored warship.

Every blue whale class armored warship usually has thousands of soldiers, but LV Gengshu flew close and saw that the soldiers and horses on each blue whale class armored warship were strengthened. A few 3000 elite soldiers boarded the warship, and the master general had at least a path of birth cultivation.

This is what Lu Gengshu is most puzzled about. In another half month, the Nu Chuan River and Wan Tao River will gradually freeze. Can these green whale class armored warships play any role if they are sealed in the glacier?

In other words, the existence of these green whale class armored warships is just a deterrent. The demon clan must withdraw before the river ice is unsealed.

It takes only three months from the freezing of Wantao River and nuchuan River to the unsealing of river ice.

If Chen Hai assembles Qingjing class armored warships in Wuchang City, the fundamental goal is to deter the demon clan. The demon clan has only three months to launch a winter offensive, and there is really no way to cross the Wantao River and push too far north.

Although its most elite magic cavalry advances very fast, it dare not leave the main force too far in the face of the brave Beiling army. It seems that if the demon clan advances to the South Bank of Nu Chuan, if it can't conquer one or two important cities as a foothold, it needs to withdraw south before the river ice is unsealed.

Once the river ice melts, and the main force of the magic soldiers does not withdraw at this time, and the green whale armored warship enters the main river of Wantao River and nu Chuan River, the main force of the magic soldiers may fall into the plain between Wantao River and nu Chuan River, which is full of mud.

The demon clan is not stupid. Chen Hai's deterrence should play a role. In this way, even if the loss of Beiling Prefecture will be extremely heavy, it will not seriously damage the foundation of Beiling army.

At this time, LV Gengshu couldn't help thinking that if Lu Shang's father accepted Chen Hai's suggestion, he would push Anxi defense army eastward to Maozhen mountain range, and lend 18 heaven and Earth Defense arrays to Beiling, it would be less a problem to deal with the demon family's winter offensive.

Pushing Anxi defense eastward to Maozhen mountain range can narrow the defense surface of the southern line of Beiling army by 10000 Li; When the eighteen heaven and earth protection arrays are lent to Beiling, Beiling can ensure the garrison of the southern line, and the government level military fortress can support until the reinforcements arrive.

In this way, even if the magic soldiers cross Wantao Hebei and enter, they will withdraw south in just two or three months, and the destructive power they can produce is even more limited.

However, at present, Chen Hai has deployed heaven and earth protection array in the south line, except for Taihua mountain and Lingzhou city to the north of danxiadu, only Tianshui, Xinhai Lingcheng and Wuchang City have deployed heaven and earth protection array.

In addition, there are only three to five forbidden level defense arrays in the cities where the other 24 garrison envoys are located, and the defense level can not be compared with the heaven and earth protection array at all.

The city where the 24 garrison envoys are located, once faced with the attack of millions of magic soldiers, it is difficult to support it for too long.

The five main military and horse gathering points of the Beiling army on the southern line are more than 10000 miles apart.

In this case, unless when the main force of the demon soldiers is mobilized, the Beiling army also gathers troops in time to fight it, otherwise, in the whole winter offensive of the demon clan, I don't know how many garrison level military fortresses will be conquered by the demon clan.

The garrison in these military fortresses and the civilians who did not have time to evacuate to the north will inevitably become the victims of the magic robbery.

LV Gengshu knew that he could not persuade LV Shang's ancestors and King Zheng to cooperate with the Beiling army. Even if it could be done, it would be too late for the demon family to start the winter offensive in less than a month.

Seeing the situation inside and outside Wuchang City, the Beiling army should adopt the strategy of deterrence and deterrence to prevent the devil soldiers from penetrating north across the Nu Chuan river. However, LV Gengshu sighed at the thought of how many casualties the Beiling army would bear. He thought that he would have to stand up for LV and rush to the king of Beiling to ask for people, ships and materials, The mood is also extremely depressed. I can't wait to turn around and go now.

At this time, in the main hall of the capital guard envoy's house in Wuchang City, Chen Hai already knew that the LV envoy was coming again, but he didn't care much. His eyes fell on the detailed list of materials copied by Feng Yichen and seized 200 ships this time, laughing with Qin Hushan: "Lu Shi is now close to yuechao. Yuechao also wants to turn Anxi into their vassal state. There are a thousand devil killing chariots in this batch of materials. It seems that our espionage work in yuechao is not detailed enough. We didn't find it out in advance. We almost let the thousand devil killing chariots leak through our fingers."

Although the heavy Tianji chariot built by Beiling at this time is not weak in defense, the Beiling state can't afford this time-consuming and labor-consuming luxury of refining without installing a defense array like the four pillar demon killing array.

If there were a small defensive array, Beiling would still be able to build more powerful super chariots. It might even gather several or even more than ten six bore heavy crossbows on one chariot, and concentrate the heavy arrows in the narrow space to the point of super imagination.

Without a defensive array that can move on the battlefield, Beiling can't risk building this super chariot. It's too easy to be destroyed by magic soldiers.

Even if built, there are only some test vehicles.

Chen Hai thought for a while, issued a warrant, handed it to Fu Siyuan and said, "these 1000 evil killing chariots will be sent to Lingzhou city immediately to see if the four pillar evil killing array can be dismantled and a batch of Scorpio chariots can be transformed within two months!"

"Should be able to......" Fu Siyuan said with certainty.

At present, Chen Hai has gathered nearly half of the Tianji craftsmen and craftsmen in Yanzhou to Lingzhou City, which is built on the xiongling mountain at the south foot of Zibai mountain to the north of danxiadu, making Lingzhou's ability to produce Tianji weapons surpass dongdushan, Tianying city and other places in just one year. Scorpio war vehicles have built a batch of test models, and there is no problem to complete the transformation in two months, Even most of the time is wasted on road transportation.

"Once the main force of the magic army moves north, I will personally lead the Dragon army, and I can only resist one of its main forces, delay and delay its progress speed, and cover the evacuation of the army and people along the line; Wu Changcheng will give it to Lord Fu, and you will take the seat..." Chen Hai said.

Ghost Xi old devil and Xinshan old devil are the existence of the three realms of the heavenly devil. There are also the three realms of the eight bottles of heavenly demons under their command. Once the rivers and lakes are frozen solid, it will be very conducive to the main action of the devil soldiers.

Even though the number of Tianji chariots has greatly increased in recent years, the Beiling army, which is at a disadvantage, has little chance of winning a hasty decisive battle with it.

To cope with the upcoming winter offensive of the demon clan, Chen Hai must do everything to delay for two months before he can find a chance to fight back and win
