Looking at the sky, it was already past 4 pm. It was too late to leave the city at this time, because he had to mobilize his troops before rushing out. It would be dark by then.
"Let's do this. You arrange for my people to rest in your territory, and we will have a good battle with him tomorrow. This time I must capture Zhou Zhenghao on the opposite side and wipe out all his troops..."
Ancestor Guiyin had a very good plan and stayed here for one night. He had nothing to say.
Get up early the next day,
Ancestor Guiyin got up very early and began to assemble his troops, preparing to leave the city for a decisive battle with Zhou Zhenghao on the opposite side.
And the troops on the opposite side have now heard the news. After all, Han Xingfa is not stupid. He has already sent a large number of reclamation team members to monitor the situation around Dongfang Lei's entire territory.
He also knew that a large number of supporters came yesterday afternoon, and Han Xingfa did not need to get close to open it to see. He just relied on the members of the reclamation team to tell them.
The leader was an old man who looked like a ghost, and he was followed by a big man with red hair. He could easily deduce it.
This is the ancestor Guiyin coming with the red-haired zombie.
He fed back the news to Zhou Zhenghao, and Zhou Zhenghao's expression changed a bit after hearing it.
This was beyond his expectation. He thought that Patriarch Guiyin would come after he defeated Dongfang Meng, but he didn't expect that he hadn't defeated him yet.
The Guiyin Patriarch himself came here. Suddenly, the situation here became complicated, and many of his arrangements needed to be changed.
After he got the news yesterday afternoon, Zhou Zhenghao ordered all the members of the reclamation team, Hainiu and Sun Shuang, who were in his territory, to rush over overnight to provide support.
Since the opponent Dongfang screamed for support, he also screamed,
If Han Xingfa were to rely solely on 20,000 people here, there would be no way to resist.
So after this night, in the morning,
Hainiu and Sun Shuang have already arrived at Dugulang's territory with more than 20,000 reclamation team members, and are now heading here along the mountain road.
"Lord, what should we do now?..."
Han Xingfa asked Zhou Zhenghao a question out of habit. Zhou Zhenghao thought about it for a moment.
"Didn't we already formulate a rough strategy last night? Let's see, you are sending members of the reclamation team about 100 meters away from the camp to dig some holes for me..."
"Dig a hole?..., what kind of hole?..."
Han Xingfa was a little surprised. He didn't know what strange tricks the lord had, but he knew that Zhou Zhenghao would never do such useless tricks.
"In this way, you can dig as wide as you want along the front of our place. The height should be 50m. Basically, dig a deep pit every 1m, one foot deep and as thick as the mouth of a bowl. ...
"
Han Xingfa felt a little strange after hearing this. What can this small pit be used for?
"One foot deep? Lord, what's the use of such a small pit?..."
"You don't need to worry about it now. You will know when the time comes. In addition, you should have the soldiers in front stand in a row. It is best so that the people on the city wall cannot see you digging holes. It is just dawn, so you can speed up in time..."
Originally, Zhou Zhenghao should have dug this hole last night if he had thought about it, but he just remembered it on the spur of the moment. Looking at the time, he should be able to make it in time.
He guessed that the opponent should also have heavy cavalry...
Because even if the opponent comes out of the city to fight, it will probably be past 10 o'clock. After all, with tens of thousands of people, it will take time for the team to gather.
Although Han Xingfa was puzzled, he faithfully carried out Zhou Zhenghao's order...,
As soon as he walked out, a member of the reclamation team came in and reported to Zhou Zhenghao.
"Lord, uh, Captain Manatee and Captain Sun Shuang's reclamation team members have left the valley entrance. They are now asking for instructions on where to live. Are they meeting here?..."
"They came quite quickly, and they had enough time. Let's tell Hainiu and Sun Shuang that they don't have to come here. Let them go to the hidden spot behind the hillside on the right side in front. Don't let people from the opposite territory discover it. Let them go there.
Hidden behind the hillside and obey my orders..."
The messenger agreed, turned around and walked out.
Watching Chen Lingbing leave, Zhou Zhenghao thought over his plan carefully from beginning to end. It should be almost done...
Although I have never fought such a large-scale battle before, because I write novels and when I was in the old world, I liked playing such strategic games.
I still know some tips on the battlefield...
He felt that his arrangement should be more than enough to deal with the Guiyin Patriarch on the opposite side.
The sun rises little by little from the east...,
Both sides started preparing for today's battle with a tacit understanding. Both sides knew that the other side was also preparing.
By the time the sun was about to rise overhead, it was already past 10 o'clock...,
Dongfangmeng's city gate finally opened, and people poured out from inside. Countless survivors began to line up in front of the territory.
On the opposite side, the reclamation team members led by Zhou Zhenghao and Han Xingfa had already put away all their tents and formed a dense formation on the spot...
He only has more than 4,000 members of the reclamation group in the front row. The members of the reclamation group here refer to members who have reached level 40 or above. Most of the others in the back are just make-up.
In other words, Han Xingfa brought some ordinary survivors from his own territory. Although they seemed to be in large numbers, their real fighting power was only the members of the reclamation team in the front row...
By this time, Qin Ran had also rushed over.
However, Qin Ran did not join the front camp. Instead, he and Wang Shi, who were behind, led nearly 3,000 survivors to garrison the fortifications...
They need to build a semicircular fortification outside the canyon, and eventually build an unbreakable military fortress.
This military fortress needs some bunkers and arrow towers around the fortress, and walls are indispensable...,
Because there is no black tower user here, there is no way to use the simple method of building city walls in the system. In other words, even if there are city wall construction drawings, there is no way to use them here.
They can only build it brick by brick. Although it is slow to build, there is also an advantage, that is, you can build it how you want...,
There is no need to be as rigid as the city wall construction drawings, so Zhou Zhenghao's order to Qin Ran and Wang Shi was to let them widen and heighten the city wall, no matter the cost.
Build this place into a permanent and unbreakable military fortress...
Neither Wang Shi nor Qin Ran had any objection to such a request.
He led the people behind him to start building desperately. The only advantage here is that there are mountains on both sides...
It is very convenient to obtain mountain rocks. Stones are quarried directly from the mountains and piled underneath. The main raw material for this city wall is stone.
At the same time, basic materials from various territories were also mobilized in large quantities. Wood was no longer needed. What was needed this time was stone and steel...
These ingredients are very convenient in Kieran's hands. As long as other lords trade these resources to him, he can take them out of his backpack and put them in the designated place.
This accelerated the construction of the entire military fortress. The tense and intensive construction behind the military fortress had already been planned, but the war in front was about to break out...
The weather outside today was not very good, and it looked dim after the sun rose. When the armies of both sides gathered, a few dark clouds came over in the sky, blocking the sun.
There was a murderous atmosphere in front of the entire Dongfang Meng territory, the wind was howling, and the dust on the ground was stirred up. It was a scene of strong horses and fierce soldiers with murderous intent...
Tens of thousands of troops from both sides stood there silently. This was the silence before the outbreak. The leaders of both sides stood in their own queues. They had no intention of talking to each other.
Zhou Zhenghao and Patriarch Guiyin have nothing to say, and Patriarch Guiyin doesn't want to talk nonsense to Zhou Zhenghao. He just wants to catch Zhou Zhenghao and cut him into pieces in front of his eyes.
"Charge!...Start the attack,..."
Finally, Patriarch Guiyin couldn't help it anymore. His formation had been set up for several minutes, but there was silence on the other side. He couldn't help but give the order to charge.
And at this time, there were more than a thousand heavily armored cavalry standing behind him. This was the fortune that Ancestor Guiyin had accumulated during this period, and it was also a part of his pride...
He cleared the fifth floor of the black tower countless times and killed countless ghost generals before he accumulated more than a thousand horse cards and more than a thousand cavalry.
This was also the time when I hated Zhou Zhenghao so much that I was willing to send out all my troops directly...
His order was passed down, and immediately thousands of horses galloped, and the entire heavy cavalry charged forward, from slow to fast, accelerating crazily, and finally galloping like lightning.
This heavy armor plus the armor on the horse weighs more than 60 kilograms. Plus the knight on it, the inertia of the impact makes it difficult for the horse to stop...
The impact is also overwhelming.
Ancestor Guiyin used this move to pre-emptively destroy many territories. The troops led by the lords could be said to have succeeded time and time again.
But what makes Patriarch Guiyin a little strange is that his massive heavy cavalry charged out,
The people on the opposite side stood there, motionless, as if they were frightened.
This is somewhat abnormal, because in the past, although the lords would be frightened, they always had to react, either by sending troops to fight, or by setting up shield soldiers to block, and spearmen to assist. This is the basic operation.
But now the survivors on the opposite side are just standing there stupidly.
"Hehe, Zhou Zhenghao seems to be a fool this time, he doesn't know how to fight at all..."
Ancestor Guiyin let out an unpleasant sneer, and Dongfang Meng next to him really disagreed in his heart.
He didn't know how to fight, so he killed more than 8,000 of me. He didn't know how to fight, so he easily captured Dugu Lang's territory.
Although he had this idea, he didn't understand what the other party meant. So he didn't dare to speak...
The charging heavy cavalry carried the dust and made thunderous sound of horse hooves. It was like a whirlwind, blowing directly over.
Just when he was still dozens of meters away from the battle formation on the opposite side, the most cruel sneer gradually appeared on Guiyin Patriarch's face.
"Jie Jie Jie!..."
He seemed to see his heavily armored cavalry rushing into the battle formation, trampling the survivors under their horses, and the survivors screaming in agony before death.
At this time, a sudden change occurred...
A heavy cavalryman who was rushing at the front suddenly stumbled and fell to his knees with a "Plop!..." and threw the knight on his back three or four meters away.
Then the heavy cavalry behind him stepped over him. The knight vomited two mouthfuls of blood and stopped moving...
You must know that this is a heavily armored cavalry, and a horse's hoof as big as a bowl will directly break his bones and tendons and damage his internal organs.
As this knight fell to the ground, one after another knights began to fall...,
This is not normal at all. How could these knights fall down for no reason on this flat ground?
Ancestor Guiyin's face changed drastically, and then he suddenly froze, his face turned pale, and with overwhelming anger, he couldn't help shouting,
"What's going on? Did you see them attacking? Did you see someone shooting arrows?..."
"No, I don't see the other party making any moves..."
Dongfang Meng was dumbfounded now. His face was full of disbelief. Didn't he see a ghost in the daytime?
But what shocked them was that there were still heavy armored cavalry falling down and being trampled to death by those behind them. The cavalry behind them wanted to stop, but they couldn't stop now.
Seeing the situation in front of them, not only were they surprised, but even Han Xingfa was the one with his mouth hanging open.
There was a look of dementia on his face. The other person didn't know what it was, but he knew what the situation was. It was he who led people to dig the hole in the ground.
And they were those pits dug in a hurry. He never imagined that they would be so powerful. It was just a pit as big as the mouth of a bowl, more than a foot deep.
Originally he wanted to dig deeper, but Zhou Zhenghao told him no. Now he finally knew what these pits were for. There was a pit like this every 1m or so.
Even if those big black horses of the heavily armored cavalry are lucky enough to cross several pits, there will always be one pit that will be stepped on by his horse's hooves.
Han Xingfa could clearly see that the hoof of a big black horse stepped into the pit, and the inertia directly broke his calf, and the white bones were exposed from the break.
The horses screamed and fell to the ground, tripping the cavalry behind them.
The heavy cavalry of more than a thousand people had already lost three to four hundred people in just a few minutes.
The heavily armored cavalry behind them could not be restrained. They started to pull their horses in panic and began to slow down. But once the heavy cavalry increased their speed, it was not easy to slow down.
Horses still kept stepping into the pit with their hooves and were thrown to the ground.
"It's almost done, Han Xingfa, let the soldiers attack..."
Looking at Han Xingfa and Zhou Zhenghao who were still in a daze, they could only pat him on the shoulder to wake him up.
Suddenly enlightened, Han Xingfa immediately raised his hands and shouted.
"The archers shoot, the mage team attacks. The pikemen advance forward, hit the target, and don't take prisoners..."
Han Xingfa issued a series of commands from his mouth with great skill. These commands had been spinning in his mind several times, and now he finally said them,
The entire war machine was activated by Han Xingfa...
Countless arrows began to attack the heavy cavalry from behind. Once the heavy cavalry lost their speed advantage and were stopped in front of the battle camp by these horse traps, they would become iron pots.
The bow and arrow shot up, making a tinkling sound...,
These bows and arrows did not do much damage to them, but they were fatal to the horses that fell to the ground, and the knights who fell to the ground also suffered fatal blows.
And it was Han Xingfa's mage team that caused the most devastating blow to the heavy cavalry who were still on their horses...
The fireball attack range of these people is a bit short, only 20m at most.
But now the place where these heavy cavalry are staying is just enough for the attack range, and the magicians of the magic group begin to send out fireballs in an orderly manner...
They have a large number of people. Now Han Xingfa has more than 1,500 members of the mage group. Although they have a relatively long front on the battlefield,
But now they basically work in groups of three, firing in an orderly manner, one after another. This can make up for the shortcomings of the fireball CD being too long and the attack interval being too long...
As long as I keep firing the fireballs at this point, you won't be able to attack me.
Sure enough, this tactic was very useful. The heavily armored cavalry no longer dared to charge forward, and it took a lot of effort to rein in the horses under them...
Then came the devastating blow of fireballs. These fireballs hit their heavy armor and would burn for a period of time. The continuous high temperature would fry them like fish in an iron can.
Large burns will clear their health bars directly downwards. If they don't take blood-replenishing medicine quickly, the high temperature of these fireballs can burn the knights in heavy armor to death...
And because these strange-armored knights wear heavy armor, it is extremely inconvenient to take medicine.
Soon there were knights, screaming and falling from their horses. The war in the front was terrible from the beginning, and the ancestor Guiyin behind was now completely broken...
He looked at his trump card, the more than a thousand heavy cavalry, and expected them to succeed in the battle and disrupt the opponent's formation, so that he could lead the people behind them to kill them directly.
But the fact is really unexpected. There is no idea what happened there. The heavy cavalry actually fell to the ground out of thin air, and their own people blocked their own people...,
This made Patriarch Guiyin's face turn blue and purple, showing a fierce look, and his teeth itched with hatred.
But he had no choice but to shout.
"Everyone, move forward and kill me. Rescue the heavy cavalry..."
Every time he lost one of these heavy cavalry, he felt heartbroken. They were all his own thorns. He had not led his people to clear the fifth floor of the black tower and worked hard to clear any one of them.
Ancestor Guiyin led the troops without hesitation and pressed forward directly.
