Chapter 177
Yaoshan County is located in the east of Yunyang County, less than two hundred miles away from the capital, but there is a mountain range across the plain, this mountain is called Yaoshan.The Tianshui River flows through this place from the west, so it has to pass through the Yaoshan Mountain from here, and divides into two tributaries, one from the south and the other from the north, thus forming an excellent protective circle for the capital.It's a pity that the Tianyun Empire has been established for a hundred years, and its strength has continued to increase, and it has expanded nearly a thousand miles to the east. There is no need to deploy heavy defenses here, so the checkpoints here are gradually withered and deserted.

The 20 troops of the Eternal Army poured into the mountain and immediately launched a fierce attack on Yaoshan County, but in a short while, the Tianyun Army with less than [-] defenders was immediately submerged in the sea of ​​people.Taking Yaoshan County, Tuo Muxiong immediately stationed [-] infantry here, and the rest of the infantry went into the mountains to hide. After nearly [-] troops entered the mountain, they blocked the back road.

In less than half an hour, the Tianyun army came from the east in a dense mass, stretching for more than ten miles, and the strict formation shrouded the ground like a huge black curtain.

Zhang Yi reined in his horse and looked at the Yao Mountain in front of him, frowning deeply, hesitating.The enemy has already deployed heavy troops ahead, waiting for him to enter the mountain.But at this time, he had no choice at all. Entering the mountain was the only fastest way to reach the capital. If he wanted to spare Yaoshan, he would have to waste at least five days.What's more, even if you make a detour, the enemy can still send cavalry to intercept it, and it will still be difficult for you to walk.The only thing that can be done now is to quickly defeat the enemy army in the mountains. As long as Yaoshan is occupied, they can advance, attack, retreat and defend, which will greatly restrain the enemy's strength and prevent them from attacking the city with all their strength.

However, since I know the importance of this place, it makes no sense for the enemy general not to know. He must have laid many traps in this mountain. If he wants to capture this mountain, he may suffer heavy casualties.

Zhang Yi took a deep breath, fixed his eyes on Yaoshan, and roared: "The whole army is going to go into the mountain!"

It is not an easy task for a 10,000+ army to enter the mountain. The forward 5 people set off first to go into the mountain to investigate the enemy's situation and eliminate traps.Then, 7 Chinese soldiers slowly entered the mountains one by one.Zhang Yi was cautious by nature, and in order to prevent the back road from being intercepted, he deployed [-] troops on the mountain pass for defense. At the same time, he sent cavalry to roam the plains to scout the movements of the enemy cavalry at any time.

Soon, after the vanguard army entered the mountain, they came to Yaoshan County, surrounded the [-] garrison regiments inside, and then launched a fierce attack.However, Yaoshan County is located in the mountains, and the terrain is rugged and narrow, which is not conducive to the army's full-scale attack.Soon, he was beaten into a panic by the Eternal Army above, who was waiting for work, and had to suspend the siege.

Soon, the army from behind also arrived, 10,000+ troops crowded on the narrow mountain road, the formation suddenly became chaotic, and the whole army crowded together in a mess.Seeing this, Zhang Yi was in a hurry. Wouldn't he give the enemy a chance to catch up with such a battle?So he immediately ordered the army to assign tens of thousands of people to cut down all the trees within a five-mile radius. First, they could make siege tools and build camps, and second, they could eliminate the enemy's hiding places and prevent surprise attacks.

Time passed little by little, and when the first batch of siege equipment was produced, Zhang Yi immediately ordered the siege. The county must be captured as soon as possible, so as to rely on the county to remain invincible.

"Kill!" The vanguard's [-] troops immediately attacked the county again, braving the dense rain of arrows, and erected wooden ladders on the wall.Countless soldiers of the Tianyun Army rushed up the city wall and fought with the enemy without risking their lives.

The [-] troops of the Chinese army surrounded the vanguard army, and they were all outside, vigilantly guarding against possible enemy troops around them.

Sure enough, when the siege battle was going on very fiercely, only the sound of horns suddenly erupted from the mountains on both sides, and in the forest five miles away, countless beating figures sprang out, flying straight down towards Yaoshan County .

"Alert! The whole army is ready to fight!"

The Tianyun army immediately made adjustments, trying to form an array to wait for the incoming enemy, but under this terrain, the large formation could not be deployed at all, and could only rely on small formations of hundreds or thousands of people to be placed in random order The army formation is nervously waiting for the enemy's impact.

"Kill!" The Eternal Army rushed down the mountain frantically, without any discipline at all, and just rushed into the Tianyun Army, setting off a bloody storm.

The soldiers of the Eternal Army bared their sturdy torsos, raised their heavy weapons, and slammed into the Tianyun Army with grinning smiles. Although countless spears were inserted into their bodies, they still spat out blood while exhausting their last strength. Sweeping the weapon in his hand with all his strength, no one could resist the powerful heavy weapon. In an instant, several people were hit and vomited blood.There was a flaw in the formation all of a sudden, and the Eternal Army immediately poured in, inserting into the formation bit by bit, disintegrating the large and small army formations.With the collapse of the army formation, the soldiers of the Tianyun Army were no match for the soldiers of the Eternal Army at all, and were immediately beaten back steadily, in a panic.

Zhang Yi commanded the army with a gloomy face to stop the enemy's attack, and the shock in his heart became more and more intense. Is this still the Eternal Army from before?

Fortunately, the Tianyun army has a large number of people, and even if the small formation formed is defeated, it will not affect the overall situation.As the nearby friendly forces continued to join the battle, they began to slowly contain the Eternal Army's offensive, stabilized their position, and slowly pulled an encirclement circle towards the opponent.

After being unable to attack for a long time, the Eternal Army immediately realized the opponent's intentions.A deep horn sounded, and the Eternal Army soldiers who were still fighting frantically retreated immediately without hesitation.This surprised Zhang Yi, and the worry in his heart aggravated a bit.

The battlefield began to return to calm, and the siege battle had also stopped.Zhang Yi looked at the corpses all over the ground, with deep sorrow in his eyes. In this battle, his side had more than 6000 casualties, and the opponent had about [-] casualties, and the ratio was still very different.Although Zhang Yi was very anxious, it was almost sunset at this time, and the soldiers were tired and hungry, and they had no strength to fight any more.

Zhang Yi was going to rest for the night and attack the city again tomorrow.So the Tianyun army began to bury the pot to make food and build camps.It was night, and the Eternal Army launched several night attacks, but the Tianyun Army was heavily guarded, and had to retreat after leaving some corpses behind.

Early the next morning, the Tianyun Army immediately launched a siege campaign, vowing to seize the county seat in one fell swoop.But what followed was that the enemy army on the hidden mountain launched an attack again, disrupting the rhythm of the Tianyun Army's siege.

The siege battle went on and on for a day, but it was still not taken. The two armies suffered at least [-] casualties, and another day passed like this.

On the third day, the same battle scene was repeated again, and the two sides fought inextricably.Near the mountain pass in the east, [-] Eternal Cavalry finally arrived.Here, they directly confronted [-] Tianyun cavalry.A total of [-] to [-] cavalry launched fierce collisions, impacts, and fights on this vast grassland.The hooves of the horses roared and passed by; the knife flashed, and the heads flew down.The corpse fell off the horse, and the blood was sprayed on the ground. In an instant, it was trampled by countless horseshoes into a muddy swamp of blood and flesh.The cavalry confrontation lasted for two hours, moving from one battlefield to another, stretching for tens of miles.When the last Tianyun cavalry was cut off from the horse, countless eternal cavalry immediately cheered crazily.

Tuo Muxiong did not cheer. At this moment, he was already weighing the gains and losses of this battle in his heart. In order to annihilate this group of Tianyun cavalry, his cavalry lost nearly 2 people.In order to block the 10,000+ Tianyun Army in the mountains, the losses must be very heavy. In this way, the losses of the Eternal Army in the Tianyun Kingdom are almost reaching his bottom line.

After two or three months of looting, countless gold and silver materials and slaves are being continuously transported to the plateau, enough to make the Eternal Kingdom of God rich for a year.Now it only needs to disable the most elite army of Tianyun Kingdom, and then they can retreat to the plateau.After such a catastrophe, the Tianyun Kingdom will not be able to retaliate against the plateau within two or three years.And in just two or three years, the Eternal Kingdom of God will become even stronger under his leadership, and at that time, the Tianyun Kingdom will perish.

"Let's go, into the mountains!"
