Chapter 648
The mine escort ship bypassed the array of warships in the exercise. After a short while, they saw more than a hundred warships lined up in front of them, stretching east and west across the Qinghai Sea. The mine escort ship slowly sailed forward, and soon there were two
The huge warship was sailing towards the thunder escort ship.
These two ships were about twenty to thirty miles long and more than a thousand feet tall. They were all blue and had huge gun muzzles on both sides facing everyone.
On the left is a warship, with the flags on the bow and stern flying the three characters of Mirror Moon Sect, and on the right is Cang Ming Sect.
The three ships gradually came together, no more than ten miles apart.
A few rays of light flashed from the two ships on the left and right, and they came to the thunder carriage and headed straight into the cabin. After about a stick of incense, several people got out of the cabin and returned to their respective warships.
The three warships advanced slowly, and the warships on the left and right returned to their original positions.
After sailing for several hours, the thunder boat finally saw land. This time it was no longer a small island, but an endless mountain range as far as the eye could see.
Obviously, this is Donglai County in the interior of Qingzhou.
Qingzhou has a total of six counties under its jurisdiction and 54 counties.
Donglai County has nine counties and a total of 108 huge cities.
The territory of any of its huge cities is at least hundreds of times the size of Newport. The thunder and carriage boats sailed inland. The endless sea gradually disappeared in everyone's eyes, and all they could see were lush mountains.
After less than a cup of tea, a huge city outline appeared in front of everyone. It covered an area of tens of thousands of miles and was equivalent to the size of a new port. Warships and chariots came and went like a shuttle.
This is a huge wharf. It was originally designed to receive merchant ships from Qinghai. It has been requisitioned by the Xuanmen Alliance. The thunder and escort ship did not stop here, but directly jumped over the wharf and sailed forward.
The mountains and rivers below everyone's feet flashed by like a horse watching flowers. As the thunder and carriage boats were moving, there were not many huge warships and chariots passing by.
About a day later, while the thunder and carriage boats were sailing, they saw a huge city standing in the distance. The city was several thousand feet high and extremely majestic. On the top of the city were engraved the two magnificent characters "Fenghua".
This is Fenghua City under Yuanxian County, Donglai County.
The entire Fenghua city has an area of 3.6 million miles, and the Fenghua city alone is 300,000 miles in size.
At this moment, Fenghua City has been requisitioned by the frontline headquarters of the Xuanmen Alliance. Therefore, there are many large and small warships and chariots cruising around the city. A warning circle has been set up around tens of thousands of miles outside the city, and the thunder and escort boats are approaching.
When the city reached the city, four warships came and surrounded it.
Several rays of light rose from each of the four warships, came to the ship, entered the cabin, and soon returned to their respective ships, leading the thunder escort ship slowly towards the city.
On the city wall, there are many monks standing and all kinds of giant spiritual weapons are displayed.
Inside the city, people were bustling, and warships and chariots were coming and going.
The thunder boat sailed into the city, and after traveling for about a quarter of an hour, it stopped in an open space. The area here was thousands of miles in diameter. The ground below was entirely paved with black, dark green stones, and the ground had clear vertical and horizontal lines.
The thundering catamaran slowly stopped within a frame with clear lines. There was also a thundering catamaran docked on the left and right sides of it, all of which stopped within the linear frame. The three were more than a hundred miles apart.
Dozens of Taixuan Sect disciples walked out of the cabin and called everyone to one place. One of them, a man with gray hair on his temples and a broad forehead, said: "Fenghua City has arrived. This is our frontline headquarters. Everyone, please tell me.
Friends, follow us to the resting place, and people from the headquarters will make arrangements for the matter. During this period, I hope all fellow Taoists will not leave, and remember not to cause trouble, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."
Everyone followed these disciples of Taixuan Sect off the huge ship. Not far away, they saw dozens of chariots of different colors and sizes rushing towards them and stopping on the decks of each floor of the thunder boat. Then the light burst out. , began a carpet search around the huge mine caravan, and the chariot made harsh and sharp sounds from time to time.
After walking for about a few hours, everyone came to a remote mountain. In front of them, there were rows of wooden houses standing one after another. The man with gray hair from before pointed at the wooden houses and said: "Fellow Taoists, please stay here temporarily. We will meet up soon." Arrange follow-up matters. During this period, I hope you will be patient and not leave."
After saying that, he led everyone into the wooden house.
Those disciples of Taixuan Sect did not leave here, but sat cross-legged under the outer pavilion, as if they were watching over everyone.
Tang Ning is still in the same room as Jiang Yuhuan and Zhuang Xingqian. The matter has come to this, so she can only take it easy.
The three of them sat cross-legged, eyes closed and practicing without mentioning anything.
………………………
In Fenghua City, in the majestic and majestic hall, sitting on the main seat is a middle-aged man with a leopard head and ape arms, a face like a jujube, and piercing eyes. This man is Xu Boyi, the commander of the Qingzhou Alliance's frontline headquarters. He was originally from the Qingwu Camp. Commander of the First Corps.
There are more than ten people sitting on each side below, all of whom are high-level officials of major Xuanmen and important figures in the Qingzhou cultivation family.
Xu Boyi said: "Everyone is here. This discussion is about the unification of Qinghai's defense deployment. As of now, the Xuanmen Alliance in Qingzhou City has assembled a total of 1.7 million elite monks. Our frontline headquarters has about 70 Ten thousand elite monks, 5,300 large and small warships, 12,000 chariots, 60,000 cannons, and countless other kinds of spiritual weapons."
"Uncle Ren of the former sect has reached an agreement with various sects. We must use Qinghai as a barrier to defend the demon offensive. We must block the demons in Mubei at Qinghai."
"So we need to expand the scope of defense and turn the entire Qinghai into a fortress to block the demons coming south. This matter is entirely the responsibility of our frontline headquarters. Do you have any good plans?"
An old man with white hair and beard below said: "Although we have 700,000 troops, most of them are low-level monks. It may be difficult for these people alone to complete the defense of Qingzhou."
Xu Boyi said: "You don't need to worry, Daoyou Liu, we just need to plan the plan. As for the deployment of manpower and the replenishment of soldiers, Uncle Ren and the others have their own considerations."
"According to our reports, the Mubei Alliance Army is currently reorganizing its forces, but they are not monolithic. The Yao Clan and the Demon Sect intend to go south, but the local forces in Mubei are not willing to go south, so there are differences in decision-making. We need to use this gap period to complete the overall defense of Qinghai."
The white man below said: "The vastness of Qinghai is no less than that of Donglai County. If we want to complete the overall defense, it may not be realistic with the troops we have at hand. If we arrange forces to garrison on each island, we can disperse the troops. It is easy to be defeated by each one. If the front between the two is too long, it will be disadvantageous."
"The main reason why we retreated in Mubei was that the front was too long, which made it impossible to provide timely support and form an effective resistance and counterattack."
"I intend to divide the entire Qinghai Sea into two, abandon the defense of the northern half of the sea, take Jining Island as the center, and stick to the southern half of the sea. Specially concentrate on holding the line from Pu'er Island to Qiyun Island to form a fan-shaped defense zone. As long as we hold on Here, it is impossible for Mubei’s demon coalition to cross Qinghai and attack Qingzhou.”
Xu Boyi said: "Do you have any other suggestions?"
A man with a beard and a beard below said: "To the south of Tianyuan Island, I suggest that it is best to deploy multiple defense lines. The islands here are connected and span the east and west of the Qinghai Sea. I think this can be used as a base to cross the north and south. It is also convenient here.
Arrange an intensive attack with artillery fire."
Xu Boyi nodded, looked down at the fair-faced middle-aged man, and said, "Yan Daoyou, you are the only one among us who has experience in fighting against the Mubei Allied Forces. You have been assigned by the superiors to serve as the supervisor of our frontline headquarters.
What do you think? You should know a lot about the Mubei Alliance Army. What methods do you think should be used to deal with them?"
The man surnamed Yan said slowly: "I agree with Liu Daoyou's suggestion. To fight them, we must first establish a strong defensive point."
"I want to remind everyone that the Mubei Allied Forces are very powerful in combat. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, we are far from their opponents. If we don't pay attention to this and try to confront them head-on, we are likely to collapse at the first touch."
"I am not making alarmist remarks, nor am I trying to boost others' ambitions or destroy my own prestige. Please listen to my detailed words."
"I have fought with their coalition forces in Mubei for many years, and I know that the main force of the Mubei Alliance is the demon clan, and the army of demon beasts under their control. Their characteristics are that they are physically strong and good at close combat."
"We suffered a loss in this regard before. We fought with them in the wild, but we retreated steadily and suffered heavy losses. After that, we held firm in Yingcheng and effectively mitigated their attack edge."
"Their tactical characteristic is to use the physical strength of monsters and monster beasts to launch a death-like charge first. At this time, we must avoid their sharp edges, otherwise it is very likely that they will disrupt our position and lead to a rout."
"When fighting them, we must try to avoid close combat. We must give full play to the advantages of our spiritual weapons. We must first establish a strong defensive point and launch attacks with spiritual weapons to blunt their edge."
"Then they will flank the Demon Sect and the monks from other factions. According to my many years of experience, the most powerful and tenacious among them are the Demon Clan. Once the Demon Clan is defeated, they will be immediately defeated."
"The characteristic of the demon clan is that the hierarchy is extremely clear. If the superiors are asked, the inferiors will obey unconditionally. Therefore, the death attacks they launch are very terrifying, and their combat power is extremely powerful. They will do whatever it takes to complete the instructions of the superiors."
"In the Mubei Allied Army, there are usually 10,000 people forming a square formation, just like our column. The square formation is divided into ten regiments."
"These teams are mixed. There are demon clans, demon sects, half-demon clans, cultivating families and various local sects, but their commanding captain must be a demon clan. Whether it is a small team, a large team, a regiment, or a column,
Legion, all teams are without exception, and the commanders are all monsters."
"The demon clan has a strict hierarchy and strict orders, so the entire team is very orderly. Once the commander issues an order, the entire team will launch a death attack."
"Their attack will be divided into strict front and rear ranks. The rear ranks are not only responsible for assisting the front ranks and charging into the city, but also serve as supervisors."
"Once they launch a charge, all personnel must move forward without hesitation. Their combat discipline is very strict. If someone in the front team looks back, just by looking back, the people in the back team will chop off his head."
"The rear team kills the front team, and the rear team kills the front team, and so on. All the rear teams are the supervisors of the front team."
