At night, the Sanjiang River surged in the dark, rolling up huge waves of several feet. Like most rivers in the underworld, the Sanjiang River ran from east to west, heading straight towards the distant Dushuo Mountain.
Went.
The river, which was not too fast before the rainy season, is now frighteningly fast. Under the unstoppable current, the rolling waves are like a herd of animals galloping, and the constantly rolling whirlpools can destroy everything that tries to cross the river.
Pull it to the depths of the water.
If something like this plunges headlong into a torrent and can't get up again, that's a big deal.
This is what happens in Dongyingzhou during the rainy season. All the rivers are surging with turbid waves. The rapids are rushing like thousands of troops, making it difficult to travel between the two sides of the river.
Where there are bridges and the bridges are strong, it's okay. At least you can travel between the two sides along the bridge. Where there are no bridges, you can only look at the river across the river and sigh.
In the dark night, the scout leader of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom raised his eyes and looked ahead, looking across the rolling waves of the Sanjiang River.
A pair of demon eyes can clearly see the outline of Suanni Mountain in the distance in the night.
Suanyi Mountain, towering into the clouds and dominating the river mouth, stood quietly on the other side of the river. In this dark night covered with dark clouds, it remained silent, watching the three rivers rushing past in front of it.
For millions of years, this mountain range has been standing on the river bank like this, motionless and without any major changes.
The only change happening in the mountain now is something that even his demonic eyes cannot see.
Unexpectedly, many places in the heart of this mountain range that can reach hundreds of miles in radius have been hollowed out.
The Jiuyou Kingdom has quietly built a solid fortification in it, and now it has hundreds of hidden guns and cannons, all of which are aimed at the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom scouts on the other side of the river.
It's just that the demon eyes can see at night, but they can't see through, and they can't see any doorways in the mountains on the other side.
Otherwise, Xiao Shizhu would not have dared to let Julong come here and started building the fortifications in the heart of the mountain with great fanfare.
After a long time, the scout leader slowly withdrew his gaze, but he still had a distressed look on his face and his brows were furrowed.
Jiuyou Kingdom has now installed sentries and patrol posts in the mountains on the other side. In fact, this does not mean that Jiuyou Kingdom is not sincere. After all, what Jiuyou Kingdom told Qingqiu Fox Country is that there are no defenses and patrols at the northern foot of the mountain.
Military camp, but this place is the border between the two countries, and Jiuyou Country cannot and cannot not set up sentries and patrol posts.
Some patrol posts and sentry posts are also normal.
However, these sentries and patrol posts blocked the scout's way.
The scouts who couldn't even reach the top of the mountain let alone visit the southern foothills.
Qingqiu Fox Country has no idea what the Jiuyou Kingdom has done in Nanlu.
But then, when the scout leader was extremely disappointed, the only scout who came back alive carefully took out a small notebook wrapped in oil paper from his arms.
Because the outside was wrapped with several layers of thick oil paper, the contents inside did not get soaked in water. I followed this scout across the Three Rivers and floated back and forth countless times in the floods and rapids, and was safe and sound.
He handed this thing to his superior and to the scout leader, shuddering, and said: "But in the mountains, we have mapped the locations of patrol posts and sentries in the mountains, and they are all in this booklet.
Woolen cloth.".
As soon as these words came out, the scout leader's disappointment immediately disappeared. He grabbed the booklet wrapped in oil paper that was handed to him, and hurriedly tore open the layers of oil paper on the outside.
The soft sound of tearing oil paper echoed softly in the woods under the night.
Of the scouts sent out, only one came back alive. The leader of the scouts was so sad that he couldn't care less.
His attention now is on the book in his hand.
The deputy who followed him quickly reached out to cover the top of his head to prevent the booklet from being wetted by the drops of water still dripping from the dense branches and leaves above.
The scout who came back alive continued: "Jiuyou Kingdom only arranges these patrol posts and sentries in the mountains. As long as you have their location map, when you attack, you can take assassination operations and pull out the sentries and sentries in the mountains one by one.
, you can capture Suanni Mountain."
Obviously, these scouts knew what Qingqiu Fox King and his son had in mind.
Therefore, the scout who came back alive paid such attention to his superior, so that his superior could tell it to his superior's superior.
The leader remained silent and just looked at the book in his hand.
It has to be said that these scouts under him are indeed elite scouts.
The pictures on the mountain in the booklet are very exquisite and detailed. Next to the locations of the Jiuyou Kingdom patrol posts and sentries, there are also detailed geographical annotations.
With this map, Qingqiu Fox Country will prepare for an assassination. As long as the killer strikes cleanly and can use the darkness to come and go without a trace, he will definitely be able to pull out all the patrol posts and sentries in the mountain overnight.
.
The only question, and one that Qingqiu Fox Country has not yet thought of, is is this matter really that simple?
Are the patrol posts and sentries of Jiuyou Kingdom just what the scouts of Qingqiu Fox Kingdom see?
However, after reading the brochure, the scout leader did not think of this. Instead, his face was filled with joy and his eyes were filled with excitement.
I thought that with this booklet, the army of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom could seize the Suanni Mountain as easily as searching a bag for something.
There is no time to think about anything else; even if you think about it carefully, you may not be able to figure out what tactics Jiuyou Kingdom uses to deal with them.
At that moment, the excited scout leader of Qingqiu Fox Country put the booklet into his arms.
After installing it, turn around and look behind you.
In the darkness, there are more and more dense vegetation. Especially the towering trees, each one with lush branches and leaves.
The trunk of the tree is thick and covered with moss and vines. The roots of the tree below are intertwined and spread throughout the soil.
Passing through this dark forest, you can see the military camps that Qingqiu Fox Kingdom has set up nearby in the name of exercises.
The scout leader decided to go there first.
Anyway, we can't reach the top and southern foot of Suanni Mountain for the time being. The scout leader decided to go to the frontline military camp first and make a copy of the booklet to the local general.
It would also be good for the local general to have an understanding of the situation in the Suanni Mountains on the other side of the river.
"Okay, let's retreat first. As for the situation at the southern foot, we will think of other solutions." The scout leader took his thoughts as an order and issued it to his surrounding subordinates without thinking.
On the horizon, there was muffled thunder again, and the rumbling sound rolled in, causing the earth to tremble slightly.
Soon, these elite scouts from the Qingqiu Fox Country retreated farther and farther away from the river, and ran into the forest behind them, where the vegetation became denser and thicker, and soon disappeared...
..
Clouds and mist surround the top of Suanni Mountain on the other side of the forest, making it difficult to see the true face in the haze.
Underground on the top of the mountain, secret passages were built to connect the mountains and underground. Each line of defense also connected the bunkers at the northern foot and the sentry towers between the military camps and military fields at the southern foot.
Underneath the top of the mountain, in a secret passage, there is a larger square stone room with a dome.
The clean walls here are carved into the rock wall, dividing the stone chamber into three compartments.
This is the combat command room and resting place of the local military commander Gushe Goddess.
The innermost room is where she rests. Outside is the reception room, where the Goddess Gushe used to discuss important matters with her generals.
As for the middle, there is the battle command room of Goddess Gushe. Every military order in Suanni Mountain, ranging from defense changes and sentry arrangements to large training and preparations for war, as well as possible military operations in the future, are issued from here.
The desk in the war room was also carved on-site from underground rock, and was integrated with the stone room. The surrounding walls were covered with combat maps, and the carved wall cabinets contained booklets with lists of combat readiness supplies, as well as some miscellaneous items.
Stuff and books.
The battle map of Jiuyou Kingdom is the most detailed and exquisite in the entire underworld.
Just because Xiao Shizhu had a headache when he looked at the hasty and simple map of the Ghost Mother Country. Even if he had the "Complete Geographic Map of the Ten Continents of the Underworld", that kind of detailed map made by the ancient gods, Xiao Shizhu also secretly searched everywhere for the map.
The genius who draws maps.
After searching carefully, I really found a few geniuses who knew how to draw and understand proportions.
Next, Xiao Shizhu secretly sent them to various places in the world to go on official business secretly - to draw detailed and exquisite maps.
After all, Xiao Shizhu only has one copy of "The Complete Geographic Map of Ten Continents in the Underworld".
It wasn't until the two continents Xuanyan Continent and Yunmeng Continent were unified that these geniuses gradually returned home, bringing many detailed maps to Xiao Shizhu.
Each map is no longer a hasty and simple map. It comes with a scale that allows people to see the entire underworld clearly on the map.
The large and small maps now hanging in the battle command room of the Goddess Gushe were copied from the maps brought back to Xiao Shizhu by those drawing geniuses, and then compared with the complete geographical map of the Ten Continents of the Underworld.
replica.
One of the combat maps is a detailed geographical map of a hundred miles near Suanni Mountain.
The Goddess Gushe marked many envious little X's on the map with red ink and red pen.
These markers are all on the opposite side of Suanni Mountain. They are the defense fortifications built by Qingqiu Fox Country before the rainy season. The sources of information are the fungi who serve as scouts in the army commanded by the Goddess Gushe, which is very reliable.
On the map, these fortifications appear to be scattered at first glance, but they all guard important traffic routes and occupy naturally dangerous areas.
The fortifications on each mark can be blocked by one man and cannot be opened by ten thousand others.
Once Jiuyou Kingdom attacks, even if they have guns and cannons, they will inevitably suffer considerable losses.
The map now unfolded on the table in the war room is exactly the same as the drawing on the wall, even the markings are exactly the same.
Now, Goddess Gushe turned on the light of the oil lamp on the table, looked at the map on the table, and frowned. She glanced at the marks on the map, her face a little solemn.
In the stone chamber, besides her, there was another fungus who was the scout of the Goddess Gushe.
This fungus man dipped some ink with the small brush in his hand and left several circles of marks along the other side of the river opposite Suanni Mountain, in the secluded forest facing the main peak.
Then, the fungus man put away his little writing brush and said to the Goddess Gushe: "General, we found that Qingqiu Fox Kingdom has visited these places in recent days and mobilized tens of thousands of troops. Judging from the number of pots they buried to make rice,
Look, the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom has sent at least 30,000 additional troops to these places."
In the stone chamber now, there are only two ghosts: this fungus and the Goddess Gushe. The door is closed again. What the fungus said is a secret and cannot be leaked out. There is no need to speak in a suppressed voice, but it brings a little gentleness.
echo.
Recently, both Qingqiu Fox Country and Jiuyou Country have been secretly communicating with each other. Qingqiu Fox Country is investigating Jiuyou Country again, and Jiuyou Country is also investigating Qingqiu Fox Country.
They both go back and forth, exploring each other's defense facilities and garrisons on the border, and are actively preparing for the war after the rainy season.
The peace between the two countries has existed in name only and is nothing more than a show of force on each other.
When the Goddess Gushe heard this, she carefully looked at the marks made by the fungi on the map, briefly measured them with her hands, and calculated the actual distance in proportion, then she relaxed her brows a little and said:
"At this distance, our artillery is not far behind."
Under the light of the fire, Goddess Gushe's eyes brightened.
Her pupils were red; she seemed to have seen the scene where once the war started, the artillery shells from Jiuyou Kingdom would hit these marked points like dense raindrops.
After saying that, Goddess Gushe looked at the marks on the map for the fortifications of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom far away from Suanni Mountain.
The place farther over there is not a place that Jiuyou Kingdom's artillery can hit.
Once the two countries go to war, the Goddess Gushe will also be responsible for tearing apart these defense lines for the army heading north.
Goddess Gushe, I want to make some plans and preparations in advance.
And the fungus on the desk also knew that these were the things that the Goddess Gushe was responsible for.
Seeing that the Goddess Gushe was a little troubled, the fungus man immediately suggested: "But general, we have more than a hundred flying thunder vehicles, plus elite air cavalry, and the flying army. If we organize an air strike, we can wipe out several places in his Qingqiu Fox Kingdom."
Fortifications and passes.”.
Goddess Gushe had also thought of this plan before. After all, the air cavalry and flying army of Jiuyou Kingdom are no longer what they used to be. Today's Jiuyou Kingdom has a powerful air force.
However, once the air force here is mobilized, the local Jiuyou Kingdom garrison in Suanni Mountain will lose air supremacy. This is what the Goddess Gushe is worried about.
The silent Goddess Gushe thought for a long time and could only think of a way to dispel her worries.
However, Goddess Gushe is unwilling to say this method herself.
If this is said out loud, the secret will be easily leaked.
The Goddess of Gushe had an idea and thought of a way. So she rolled up the map and put it into the slender leather tube that was one foot long. After putting it in, she put the lid on it, affixed the seal, and shouted to the door.
One voice: "Messenger."
The shout rang out, and after a moment, the closed door was pushed open from the outer door. A gust of dark wind rushed in. In the wind, a human soul soldier strode quickly into the house, taking three steps and two steps at a time.
He came to stand in front of the desk and bowed slightly to the Goddess Gushe: "General."
"You are out on business. There is a blueprint here. Send it to Yuque City immediately." Goddess Gushe handed the slender leather tube in her hand to the ghost soldier opposite her: "Without going through any department, go straight to it.
In the hands of the Lord."
The miniature fungus man standing on the table looked baffled.
He knew that Goddess Gushe just put a blueprint inside. There was only a marked blueprint without any annotations or written explanations.
The fungus thought: If my lord gets this blueprint, won’t he feel confused?
The messenger soldier had no such thoughts. He accepted the leather tube and went out. He then closed the door and closed it again.
As soon as the messenger left, the fungus couldn't help but express his doubts and confusion: "General, you just asked the messenger to take away the drawings. Do you understand, my lord?".
