Chapter 947

The light snow is beginning to clear up. The whole yantaiguan is covered with shallow snow for thousands of miles. Occasionally, black rocks are exposed in some places, just like a delicate ink painting, fresh and refined.

However, in Chen Hai's eyes, the black smoke columns rising from the smelting furnace behind yantaiguan destroy the picture in front of him, but Sha Tianhe, Xie Jueyuan and Huang Qiwei feel that these black smoke columns are not thick, black, choking and dense enough.

The time has come to the early winter of the 37th year of Jianxing, and the preliminary construction of the new Tianying city under lingque peak is finally completed.

Under lingque peak, there was also an ancient battlefield where people and Demons fought many bloody battles. The fierce battle like a mountain avalanche destroyed the terrain around lingque peak for two or three hundred miles. Coupled with the long-term erosion of streams and rivers, a mountain dam plain extending more than 220 miles from east to west and more than 150 miles from north to South was formed in the deep mountains at the southwest foot of mozhang ridge, Minchuan and other rivers flow through.

The new Tianying city was built on the north side of lingque peak and in the middle of the mountain dam plain.

Tianying city does not have a towering wall stretching for more than a hundred miles. From the north slope of lingque peak, it is the Tiangong school palace, the city guard yamen, the residential area inhabited by 300000 or 400000 people, and the workshop area composed of hundreds of large and small workshops. The defense of Tianying City depends more on a solid fortress built on the gap or dangerous peak outside the mountain dam plain, Put an end to the infiltration and attack of small demons.

The loss of manpower in Beiling town is much lower than that in other towns, but the loss of Tianji weapons is much higher than that in other towns. Tianying City, which has the capacity of producing more than 2000 light and heavy Tianji chariots, 6000 or 7000 heavy bore crossbows and more than 60 wind flame airships per year, can be said to be the real lifeline of Beiling town.

In the past, Tianying city was built at the north foot of Dongdu mountain, more than ten thousand miles away from the main residence of Beiling town. In order to ensure that his lifeline was not lost, Chen Hai had to put a large number of elite on Dongdu mountain to ensure that Tianying city was safe, which also seriously affected the exertion of the military potential of Beiling town.

Just like at the beginning, Chen Hai didn't want to lead the first camp in person and take such a big risk to wander away from the edge of the black hair desert, but if he wanted to take into account Yunmen plug and Dongdu mountain, he must carry out mobile operations with the strongest combat power.

At present, a new Tianying city has been established under lingque peak, and more than 80% of the craftsmen and craftsmen have moved here, which means that he can assemble the main troops and horses of Beiling town to the West foot of mozhang ridge, and his tactics become more flexible.

In the same period, Chen Hai also cultivated more than 20 million grain fields in lingquefengshanba plain and the surrounding small and medium-sized river valley basins, mainly in fusanghai's assistance to the families of military officials and the families of Beiling town's soldiers after they were remarried, together with Guniu, camel horse, plow and other agricultural tools, which is expected to collect more than 2 billion kilograms of grain every year, It can basically meet the grain consumption of Beiling town soldiers.

However, the soldiers in Beiling town are mainly the elite soldiers in tongxuan territory. In addition to the consumption of grain, they also consume a lot of meat. The consumption of nearly one billion kilograms of meat every year is not what Tianying city can provide for raising meat birds and animals. Chen Hai later used the large and small river valleys, mountain dam plains, large and small basins in the depths of mozhangling for hoarding, farming or grazing to raise animals, Ensure that mozhangling can achieve self-sufficiency to a certain extent.

In addition, at the edge of lingquefengshanba plain, Tianying city has explored and measured two large black iron veins, which can refine 4 million kg of xuanyang refined iron and 1 billion kg of ordinary copper and iron every year. Because in the mine, in addition to mining vehicles, track baggage cars have also been used. For the two large mines and smelters, Tianying city only needs to invest thousands of miners.

In contrast, the northwest region has to invest 30 to 40 times more manpower in mining and smelting xuanyang refined iron and ordinary copper and iron of this scale than Tianying city.

However, in the eyes of the patriarchal clan, all the people are as small as mole ants. They don't think it is necessary to requisition 30 or 40 times more ant people, mine ore and smelt copper and iron.

Gengyang golden thunder array is too dazzling to come out at this time, but Chen Hai still deployed gengyang golden thunder array and Qianyuan Xuanda array borrowed by nine prefectures in the underground palace deep in the hinterland of lingque peak.

The Qianyuan Xuanda array is actually the same kind of large array as the Qianyuan Xuanda array used by Yingshi to defend Yanjing in those years, but it has one more Taoist weapon level Qianyuan magic column than the back array, which makes the defense of this real Qianyuan Xuanda array several times stronger, enough to prevent small-scale wing demons from rushing into the lingquefeng mountain dam plain.

On the outskirts of lingquefeng mountain dam plain, eight fortresses are deployed with a forbidden level defense array and elite troops ranging from three to five thousand. The biggest role is that there are strong demons of the monarch level to raid in. They can drag the strong enemy with Qianyuan Xuanda array for a period of time, so that the Yutian xuanlei ship can rush to yantaiguan for rescue in time.

Of course, in the most critical moment, the left ear will still start gengyang golden thunder array.

In the main city of yantaiguan, Chen Hai also expanded more than ten workshops dedicated to war equipment in military towns on the basis of the original workshops of craftsman and engineering department. He also grazed and raised more than 100000 animals on the Shanba plain extending more than 100 miles southwest of yantaiguan.

The main city of yantaiguan is too close to the battlefield ahead, and the Cloud Gate fortress has cracked. The main city of yantaiguan is sheltered by the ten thousand immortals killing demons array, which has little impact, but outside the city, it is like an earthquake of magnitude 5 or 6, which is not conducive to farming, building houses and resettling ordinary people. Even if it is herding animals, it can only raise animals, and its nervous response is the most slow A kind of fire striped bull that is not easily frightened can make up for the lack of meat.

In any case, the wars in yunmensai, tengxiling and other places are still tragic, but after a year of operation, the hoarding army at the West foot of mozhangling has achieved little.

Chen Hai and Ning chan'er personally tried to drive away a group of winged demons who were trying to cross the magic Zhangling in the eastern battlefield. They were standing high in the air. They were very satisfied to see all parts of Yantai pass exuding vitality even in the cold winter. If they could survive the magic robbery this time, this would be the core base for them to control Tianluo valley.

At the same time, a tragic battle has just ended on the east wing front of mozhangling.

Under the cover of nearly 10000 winged demons and a larger number of elite demons, hundreds of thousands of remnant soldiers of Luocha demon family slowly retreated to the fortress two or three hundred miles away.

The East Wing defense line took one city and four fortresses as the core. The gates of the fortresses were opened everywhere, and Tianji chariots rumbled out, putting on a tight posture, forcing the demon family to retreat north in a hurry without spare power to clean up the battlefield.

Ji Jiangye stood at the head of Dong'an pass, looking at the defeat of the Luocha demon clan, and his face was quite satisfied.

There is no need to supervise the war and count the results. The strong divine knowledge of Ji Jiangye, Yuan Zhou and others have long seen every move that has taken place on the battlefield in recent days.

The war launched by the demon clan against the East Wing defense line before the arrival of winter can be said to be the largest war this year. It lasted 11 days. The demon clan used 2 million demon soldiers to attack the big and small fortresses on the East Wing defense line in turn.

At this time, the demon clan gave up the former magic stronghold and withdrew to Changping fortress further north, presumably to terminate this consumption war in advance.

In this war, Ji's and Yuan's troops and horses in the East Wing defense line killed more than 300000 elite magic soldiers. Although their own side lost more than 200000 people and horses, with the popularization of Tianji war weapons and the general promotion of new tactics, even those strong people who have no accomplishments in the mysterious world can enter the battlefield for auxiliary operations, coupled with heavy Tianji chariots, In the battlefield, the strong wall battle connecting the battle array and the military line can be played by ordinary generals in Mingqiao territory and daodan territory, which reduces the loss of elite generals of Ji family and yuan family to an unprecedented level in the front.

In the view of the demon clan, the war damage of the Terran in the mozhang mountain has only decreased by one or two percent. In the past year, the battlefield at the north foot of the mozhang mountain has swallowed up nearly three million human soldiers' lives like a meat grinder. However, the elite in the middle and late period of tongxuan territory has reduced the war damage of the soldiers by 30 percent, and the war damage of the grass-roots military officers in the spirit setting will be reduced by 50 percent, The loss of elite soldiers above Mingqiao territory has been greatly reduced by more than 60%.

After the transformation of the three galloping roads from the Pingma mountain defense line to the mozhang ridge, the traditional animal power is replaced by wheeled baggage carts. At this time, the demon clan sends a small group of elite magic soldiers to the south of the mozhang ridge. If they want to attack the Terran supply line, the gain is not worth the loss

Although the material consumption of mozhang mountain is like a bottomless pit, as long as the war on the eastern and southern lines is free, Ji Jiangye and Yuan Zhou are confident that they can defend mozhang mountain to the end.

Hundreds of miles away, Tu Wu devil, who turned into a bearded man, falsely stood on a blood hoof monster more than ten meters high. His eyes crossed hundreds of miles and stared at Ji Jiangye's confident face. Fierce blood flowed from the devil's pupil.

The night was getting deeper and deeper. Three hundred miles northeast of Dong'an pass, a magic plug with a radius of more than ten miles was entrenched there like a human devouring beast.

In the magic village, there are three and four hundred thousand of the magic soldiers of the Luo cha. Apart from the necessary duty, most of the soldiers of the Luo Cha army have fallen into a deep sleep after chewing a big blood meal. After all, they have been fighting for several days in a row, even if the spirits of the Luo Cha are unable to bear such a consumption. A big sleep will help them better digest and absorb the flesh and blood essence of the blood food.

In the middle of the magic stronghold is a stone hall built by the Terran.

In the stone hall, Thai officials, Tu Wu, Pandu, Dantu, Yin Li and other demon kings sat on the tall King's chair made of magic Jiao's skull, and their face was as heavy as water.

Among the four magic halls in Tiancheng mountain, the evil soldiers in the evil territory hall led by Thai officials consumed a lot in the previous war. At the beginning of the war of consumption like a meat grinder in the magic Zhangling mountain, they were able to stay in Beiling city and Yangui city to rest. However, this time, in order to strengthen the offensive against the east front of the Terran, 500000 elite evil soldiers in the evil territory hall were transferred to participate in the war, but they didn't think about the past ten days, At the expense of soldiers and generals, nearly 100000 elite magic soldiers were killed. Thai officials, Tu Wu, Pandu, Dantu and other demons were also distressed.

Tu wuna's shrill voice, like the friction of iron tools, sounded in the hall: "It has been five years since the four halls attacked the magic Zhangling mountain. Even though the four halls can recruit a large number of magic soldiers and generals from the north, 12 million elite have accumulated at this time. Before they died in the magic Zhangling mountain, the Terrans rely on the heaven and earth array, but their bodies are naturally weak. Even if the casualties are slightly smaller than ours, the cumulative number is definitely more than ten million. According to the truth, the three sects in the northwest region should fight more and more The more tired you are, you may completely lose your support and collapse in two or three years. Just, tell me, is there any sign that the people in the northwest region can't support it? "
