The Legend of the Great Wilderness

Chapter 267 The Terrible War Fortress-1
The reason why Rong Wei and others rushed to inspect the passageway of Cave [-] was that apart from the fact that [Zhikong Battle Battalion]'s handwriting in Cave [-] alarmed Rong Wei, the most important thing was that Cave [-] was too "peaceful".

You must know that in the past, Cave 36 was the place under the greatest pressure of war among the corridors of Cave 10 on [Jianshi Mountain] [Blade Gorge]. Even the guards under the direct command of Rong Wei had to invest more than [-] The battle strength of tens of thousands of people can barely stabilize the battle situation.

Although it was difficult to push the [Trapped Air Battalion] to the position with the most defensive pressure, intending to make them suffer, but the [Trapped Air Battalion] and their subordinate soldiers, combat attendants, armed war servants, and logistics Conscripts, supply pawns, and battalion construction servants are, after all, just rookies who have never been on the battlefield.

Rong Wei didn't dare to really make fun of the war, so while he was preparing to read the jokes about the [Trapped Air Battalion], he was also ready to respond to the [Trapped Air Battalion]'s call for help at any time, but the strange thing was that the [Trapped Air Battalion] not only did not send out any The signal for help, and even the beacon smoke that symbolizes the encounter with the enemy at the pass has never risen.

If it hadn't been for the fact that the [Cavern in the Air] was about to turn the passageway of Cave 10 into a large-scale construction site, with a million people working here in full swing, Rong Wei would have thought that the passageway of Cave [-] had fallen and was captured by Li Yi The rebels broke through completely.

This is too abnormal. From the beginning of [Autumn Harvest Festival], when [Trapping Air Battalion] took over the defensive defense of the corridors of the Eighteenth Caves in [Blade Edge Gorge], to the current three months when the first snow fell, there was no position in the Eighteenth Caves. Let off even one enemy warning signal.

It seems that the [Trapping Air Battalion] negotiated with the Liyi rebels. Before they repaired the defensive facilities of the eighteenth cave corridor, the rebel army would never bother them. The Liyi rebel army seemed to have forgotten the eighteenth cave corridor. , on the contrary, the pressure on the other 35 Caves [Blade Edge Gorge] is increasing day by day, and there is no time to distract and worry about other things.

If it wasn't for the sudden fall of the first snow today, Li Yi's rebels' offensive had been slowed down, and Wei Rong had been able to breathe for a few days, he wouldn't have had the time to come to the eighteenth cave corridor to "inspect".

According to the regulations of the frontier guards of the Great Wilderness, whenever the pass is attacked by the enemy, a column of beacon smoke must be raised to "warn" other positions. Always ready to support.

If the pressure is too great, you can also raise three pillars of smoke representing "request for help", five pillars of smoke symbolizing the "crisis" of the position (the first city wall is lost), and seven pillars of smoke that are "attacked" by the pass (the second city wall). lost), the nine pillars of smoke that were completely "broken" (the third city wall fell), and so on.

But here in Cave [-], not to mention three-five-seven-nine, not even a column of smoke rose when encountering the enemy. On the contrary, the smoke from other corridors kept rising all day long, making the area along [Jianshi Mountain] a mess. It's the same as the big chimney of the black factory.

If it weren't for the scouts who stayed here, they were indeed using the war eagle to send news every day, informing Rong Wei that everything was fine here, it is estimated that Rong Wei would have brought people over to take over the defense of the [-]th Cave long ago.

As the corridor with the longest defense line among the 36 positions in [Jianshi Mountain] and the highest probability of being attacked, it is impossible for the 36th cave to not be attacked. Even the corridor of the first cave, which is only a few hundred meters wide, has the least pressure and the terrain is extremely conducive to defense. The corridors of Cave [-] have been beaten to pieces during this period of time. It can be seen that the Liyi rebels outside [Sword Rock Mountain] have become more and more crazy as winter approaches.

From the beginning of the rebellion of the Three Kings of the Hundred Clans of Li and Yi, the rebel army has been like a snowball, and the chaos in the three prefectures of [Zhongrong County] has become more and more troublesome. Three cities in [Qingshan Mansion] alone have fallen into war zones, and [Rongshi City] is fortunately not invaded by the main force of the rebels because of its remote location.

It is said that some prefectural cities have even been breached by the rebels, invaded the inner land and wreaked havoc for thousands of miles.

However, it is impossible for the rebels who only rely on plundering and plundering to have complete logistical support and abundant combat readiness stockpiles like the Guards. The internal chaos gradually disintegrated and disappeared.

It is said that the reason for the rebellion of the Li and Yi tribes was that during the [Autumn Harvest Festival] last year, the garrisoned cities and military fortresses exploited the Li people and the Yi people too hard, resulting in the people of the Li and Yi tribes having no food for the winter. That's why the Li and Yi tribes were forced to rebel.

No one thought that the Liyi rebels would successfully survive last year's cold winter by plundering, and after several seasons of grain harvests this year, they would have accumulated enough food and supplies to engulf a large number of common people, The slave people formed a terrible "disordered people tide", which suddenly became uncontrollable.

Last winter they were able to rely on looting to survive the winter because the scale was not large, and with the advent of this winter, the number of rebels had increased tens of thousands of times, and it was impossible to rely on looting alone to survive the winter.

That's why they expanded wildly, trying to capture those garrisons, military forts, villages, and docks that had hoarded a large amount of food and supplies, and seized supplies for the winter.

The [Sword Rock Mountain] that [Ironforge] is in charge of has deployed a defense line of more than 800 kilometers in the east-west direction, but it has firmly blocked the road for the rebels to go south. Looted, under the pressure of survival in winter, they will inevitably rush south frantically to obtain more living space.

Under such circumstances, how could the pressure on [Jianshishan's] defense line not be too great?As the widest corridor of eighteen caves in Cave 36 of [Sword Rock Mountain] [Blade Edge Gorge], how could it not be attacked by the rebels going south?
That's why Rong Wei and the others felt that the [-]th Cave was too "quiet". After the first snow fell, the rebels waited for the rear supplies and repairs to delay the offensive, so they hurried to the [-]th Cave to inspect and see what happened. thing.

With more than a million combat forces under the command of the [Falling Air Battalion], Wei Rong is not worried that the Eighteenth Cave will fall all at once. With so many people, even if they take their lives to fill it, they can persist for a long time, right?Enough friendly troops from the other 35 tunnel positions came to support.

Even if he heard that Cave [-] was broken into the inner city by rebels, Rong Wei would not be surprised, but there was no movement, which made people too disturbed. Big, simply surrender to the enemy.

But as they came all the way from NO.12 [Blade Edge City] in Cave [-], this worry gradually dissipated. Not to mention the strong combat power of the [Sinking Battle Battalion], just these twelve terrifying The existence of the War Fortress is probably enough to make those rebels vomit blood.

If you break one floor and look up, you will see another floor, if you break one floor, you will see another floor, and if you change it endlessly, whoever will feel like dying, right?
In the process of boarding a very peculiar twisted cable elevator to the 12-meter-high city wall of No. 70 War Fortress, Rong Wei suddenly realized that it was because the defense of the Eighteenth Cave was too strong and too difficult to attack. , after the frustrated rebels vomited blood, they sadly changed places to fight other tunnels, so that caused the pressure on other tunnels to increase in the near future?

What Rong Wei didn't know was that his "divine comprehension" was actually very close to the truth, but he only guessed the beginning, not the end...

When Rong Wei and his party climbed to the top of the wall accompanied by Hu Hu, they were immediately shocked by the majestic and majestic scene of No. 12 Yonggu War Fortress. Domi) city wall is almost twice as high as the original first city wall in Cave 70!

Standing under the city wall, not to mention attacking the city with flesh and blood, it is estimated that even if you look up, you will have to break your neck. The most terrifying thing is that the top of the wall, which is 70 meters high and 50 meters wide, is not even. Instead of a flat plane, a "convex"-shaped three-level stepped battle platform stands up!
The bottom level of the base is five meters high and 30 meters wide, and a space of ten meters wide is reserved on both sides for soldiers to walk. The second level base is three meters high and 20 meters wide, and only the outer side is reserved for ten meters wide. The third-level base is also three meters high and ten meters wide, and a ten-meter combat platform is reserved on the outer side.

In this way, the top of the entire 50-meter-wide war fortress, including the top of the third season pedestal, has a total of four battle platforms, instead of the single battle space on the top of the regular city wall!

What makes one's scalp tingle is that on the four-story battle platform, there is a huge equipment installed every ten meters. Although it is tightly wrapped in linoleum, it is hard to see what it is, but just looking From the complex structure and the ferocious appearance of claws and teeth, one knows that this thing is definitely not used as a decoration on the top of the city.

And close to the city wall, a 50-meter-high and 30-meter-wide [Tibetan Military Library] and a 30-meter-high and 20-meter-wide [Arms Library] were built, which were combined with the War Fortress to form a giant of three steps.

This war fortress that looks like a dam, including the three-level war platform on the top, has a total height of 82 meters, and with the two giant war buildings behind it, the total width has reached a terrifying 100 meters !

The stunned members of the Guards inspection team felt chills all over their bodies when they saw all this, and couldn't help but feel sad for those who were preparing to attack this war fortress, while Wei Rong thought more about it, which also caused his body to shudder trembling slightly...

There are twelve such war fortresses in the entire corridor of the Eighteen Caves [Blade Edge Gorge]!Not counting the acropolis at the entrance, there are still twelve Nimas!
