Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 648
The Leiyi boat bypassed the array of warships on the exercise, and after a short time, it saw more than a hundred warships lined up in front of it, spreading across the east and west of the Qinghai Sea. The huge warship was heading towards the thunder ship.

These two ships are about twenty or thirty miles long, more than a thousand feet high, and they are all blue, with huge muzzles on both sides facing the crowd.

On the left is a warship with the three characters of Jingyuezong flying on the flag at the bow and stern, and on the right is Cangmingzong.

The three boats were gradually juxtaposed, and the distance between them was no more than ten miles.

The two ships on the left and right flashed a few lights, came to the Leiyi boat, and went straight to the cabin. After about an incense stick, several people left the cabin and returned to their respective warships.

The three warships moved forward slowly, and the left and right warships returned to their original positions.

After driving for several hours, the thunder ship finally saw the land. This time it was no longer a small island, but a mountain range with no end in sight.

Obviously, this is Donglai County in the inland of Qingzhou.

Qingzhou has a total of six counties under its jurisdiction, and fifty-four counties under it.

There are nine counties under Dongnai County, with a total of [-] giant cities.

The area under the jurisdiction of any one of its giant cities is at least hundreds of times the size of Xingang. The thunder boat sailed inland, and the endless sea in everyone's eyes gradually disappeared, and all they could see were green mountains.

The Lei Yi boat had been driving for less than a cup of tea, and a huge city outline appeared in front of everyone. It covered an area of ​​about tens of thousands of miles, which was equivalent to the size of a new port, and warships and chariots shuttled back and forth.

This is a huge pier, which was originally used to receive merchant ships coming and going from Qinghai, but has now been requisitioned by the Xuanmen Alliance. The thunder ship did not stop here, and directly jumped over the pier and drove forward.

The mountains, rivers and rivers under everyone's feet flashed past like a horse watching flowers, and the thunder boat was driving, and huge warships and chariots passed by from time to time.

About a day later, while the Lei Yi boat was driving, I saw a huge city standing in the distance.

This is Fenghua City under Yuanxian County, Dongnae County.

The area under the jurisdiction of Fenghua City is [-] million li, and this Fenghua City alone has a size of [-] li.

At this moment, this Fenghua city has been requisitioned by the frontline headquarters of the Xuanmen Alliance, so there are many large and small warships and chariots cruising around the city, and a warning circle has been made tens of thousands of miles outside the city. In the city, four warships came and surrounded it.

A few rays of light rose from the four warships, came to the boat, entered the cabin, returned to their respective boats after a while, and led the thunder boats slowly towards the city.

On the city wall, there are many monks and various giant spiritual weapons on display.

Inside the city, people were bustling with people, and warships and chariots were coming and going.

The thunder ship sailed into the city, and after traveling for more than a quarter of an hour, it stopped at an open area with a radius of several thousand miles. The ground below was paved with black, dark green stones, with clear vertical and horizontal lines.

The thunder ship slowly landed within a frame with clear lines, and there was also a thunder ship docked on the left and right sides of it, all of which stopped within the line frame, and the distance between the three was more than a hundred miles.

In the cabin, dozens of Taixuanzong disciples walked out and gathered them together. One of them, a man with gray temples and a broad forehead, said: "Fenghua City has arrived, and this place is our frontline headquarters. You follow us to the resting place, and there will be people from the headquarters to arrange matters later, during this period, I hope all fellow Taoists do not leave, and remember not to make trouble, or you will bear the consequences."

Everyone followed these Taixuanzong disciples off the huge ship, not far away, but saw dozens of chariots of different colors and sizes rushing towards them, and landed on the decks of each floor of the thunder ship, and then the light burst out. , and started a carpet search around the huge thunder ship, and there were harsh and sharp sounds from the chariot from time to time.

After walking for about several hours, they came to a remote mountain, and there were rows of wooden houses standing one after another in front of them. The man with gray temples pointed at the wooden house and said, "Please stay here temporarily, we will meet you soon." Arrange follow-up matters, during this period of time, I hope you will be patient and don't leave."

After saying that, he led everyone into the wooden house.

Those Taixuanzong disciples didn't just leave, but sat cross-legged under the outer pavilion, as if they were guarding everyone.

Tang Ning was still in the same room with Jiang Yuhuan and Zhuang Xinqian, the matter had come to this, and he could only feel at ease when he came.

The three of them sat cross-legged, closed their eyes and practiced without mentioning it.

...........................

Fenghua City, in the majestic and majestic hall, on the main seat sits a middle-aged man with a leopard head, ape arms, a face like a jujube, and piercing eyes. This person is Xu Boyi, the head coach of the frontline headquarters of the Qingzhou League. Commander of the First Army.

There are more than a dozen people sitting on each side below, all of them are high-level officials of various Taoist sects and important figures of the Qingzhou practice family.

Xu Boyi said: "Everyone is here. This discussion is about unifying Qinghai's defense deployment. Up to now, the Xuanmen Alliance of Qingzhou City has assembled a total of [-] million elite monks, and my frontline headquarters is about [-]. Elite monks have [-] large and small warships, [-] chariots, [-] cannons, and countless spiritual weapons of all kinds."

"The former Master Ren of our sect has reached an agreement with the various sects. We must use Qinghai as a barrier to defend against the monsters' offensive. We must block Mubei's monsters in Qinghai."

"That's why we want to expand the scope of defense and turn the entire Qinghai into a fortress to stop the monsters going south. This matter is entirely in the charge of my frontline headquarters. Do you have any good plans?"

The old man with white beard and hair below said: "Although we have [-] troops, most of them are low-level monks. It may be difficult to complete the defense of Qingzhou with these people alone."

Xu Boyi said: "Fellow Daoist Liu, there is no need to worry. We only need to plan a plan. As for the deployment of manpower and the replenishment of soldiers, Uncle Ren and the others have their own considerations."

"According to our informant, the Mubei Alliance Army is now reorganizing its forces, but they are not monolithic internally. The Yaozu and the Demon Sect intend to go south, while the local forces in Mubei are unwilling to go south, so there are differences in decision-making. We need to use this gap to complete the overall defense of Ching Hai."

A white man below said: "The vastness of Qinghai is no less than that of Donglai County. If we want to complete the overall deployment, it may not be realistic with the strength of our troops. If we arrange troops to garrison each island, one will disperse the troops. It is easy to be defeated by each of them, and the two battle lines are too long, but it is not good."

"The main reason why we were defeated in Mubei was that the battle line was too long, which made it impossible to provide timely support and form an effective counterattack."

"I intend to divide the entire Qinghai into two, give up 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 the troops to stick to the line from Pu'er Island to Qiyun Island to form a fan-shaped defensive area. As long as you hold on Here, it is impossible for Mubei's demon coalition forces to cross Qinghai and attack Qingzhou."

Xu Boyi said: "Do you have any other suggestions?"

A man with a swallow's jaw and a tiger beard below said: "In the south of Tianyuan Island, I suggest that it is best to arrange multiple lines of defense. The islands here are connected and straddle Qinghai from east to west. I think this can be used as a base to cross the north and south. It is also convenient here. Arrange intensive attacks of artillery fire."

Xu Boyi nodded, looked down at the fair-skinned middle-aged man, and said, "You are the only one of us who has experience fighting against the Mubei coalition forces, and you have been assigned to be the supervisor of my frontline headquarters. What's your opinion? You should have a better understanding of the Mubei Allied Army, what kind of means do you think should be used to deal with them?"

The man surnamed Yan said slowly: "I agree with Fellow Daoist Liu's proposal. To fight against them, we must first establish a solid defense point."

"I would like to remind everyone that the Mubei coalition's combat effectiveness is very strong. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, we are far from their opponents. If we don't pay attention to this point and try to confront them head-on, we may be defeated at the first touch."

"I'm not scaremongering, nor am I raising the ambitions of others or destroying my prestige. Please listen to my words."

"I have fought against their coalition forces in Mubei for many years, and I know that the main force of the Mubei alliance is the monster clan, and the monster army under their control. They are characterized by strong bodies and good at melee combat."

"We suffered from this aspect before. We fought against them in the wild, so we retreated steadily and suffered heavy losses. Afterwards, we stood firm in Yingcheng and effectively eased their attack."

"The characteristic of their tactics is to use the strong physical abilities of the monster clan and monsters to launch a death-like charge first. At this time, we must avoid their edge, otherwise we are very likely to be disrupted by them and lead to defeat."

"To fight them, we must try our best to avoid hand-to-hand combat. To give full play to the advantages of our spiritual weapons, we must first establish a solid defense point and launch attacks with spiritual weapons to dampen their edge."

"Afterwards, the Demon Sect and monks from other sects that will outflank them. According to my years of experience, the most powerful and tenacious fighting force among them belongs to the Yaozu. As long as the Yaozu is defeated, they will be defeated immediately."

"The characteristic of the monster race is that it has a very clear hierarchy. If the superiors say it, the subordinates will obey unconditionally. Therefore, the death attacks they launch are very terrifying, and their combat power is extremely strong. They will do everything they can to complete the orders of the superiors."

"In the Mubei coalition army, [-] people are usually formed into a square team, just like our column, and the square team is divided into ten regiments."

"These teams are scattered. There are monster clans, demon sects, half-demon clans, aristocratic families and various local sect forces, but their commanders must be monster clans. Legion, all teams without exception, the commanders are all monsters."

"The monster clan has a strict hierarchy and strict orders, so the whole team is very orderly. Once the commander gives an order, the whole team will launch a death attack."

"Their attack will be divided into a strict front and rear ranks. This rear team not only undertakes the task of assisting the front team and charging and attacking the city, but also serves as a supervisor."

"Once they charge, all personnel must go forward bravely. Their combat discipline is very strict. Once someone in the front team looks back, just look back, the people in the back team will cut off his head."

"The back team beats the front team, and the back team beats the front team, and so on. All the back teams are supervised by the front team."

"Unless the commander gives the order to retreat, the entire team will charge until the entire army is wiped out."
