The mountains are under the mountains, with undulating heights, stretching for more than ten kilometers, and are connected to the woods.
Luo Feng led the army into the mountains, immediately wandered around the high slopes, and quickly disappeared from Xiu Jie's sight.
Mountains and forests are the easiest place to ambush, but Xiu Jie is not afraid of being ambushed at all. Any ambush will not pose any danger to Xiu Jie, not to mention that there is a large army behind Xiu Jie.
However, if there is an ambush, the losses of the army will definitely increase, but Xiujie does not care about this, because on the battlefield here, Luo Feng only has the strength of one army. If they all ambush, how much damage can they cause to the two legions.
It's just that the mountainous terrain is more complicated. After entering, the army cannot move forward and is squeezed into the long and narrow mountain road.
Although the mountain road is long and narrow, the open space can accommodate dozens of people passing by side by side.
When fighting in a place like this, it is useless no matter how many troops there are. They can only advance in batches. The only advantage is that if one batch falls, there will still be troops behind to keep up and fight until the opponent has no more troops.
But if tens of thousands of people were to be killed on this long and narrow mountain road, it would take less than ten days and a half month. It was simply unrealistic. Even if the opponent made no resistance, lined up and let them fight all the way, it would still take two or three days.
Xiu Jie looked at the long and narrow mountain road in front of him and felt secretly angry. In a place like this, it would be easier to capture the city. It would be a waste of time.
"Spread out, surround the entire mountain and rush in, making it impossible for Luo Feng to escape." Xiu Jie quickly walked into the mountain road in front and commanded the troops to spread out and surround.
The 200,000-strong army spread out and fought their way in from all the mountain passes, preparing to eliminate Luo Feng in their own encirclement. This may be the fastest way to eliminate Luo Feng.
Luo Feng knew that Xiu Jie had two legions of troops, so he didn't dare to stop after entering the mountains, and ran straight along the mountains towards the woods.
The mountain roads twist and turn, and each road connects with each other. From time to time, there will be some flat and open places between the mountains, like a small basin.
Luo Feng hurried for a while and stopped in an open place. The troops behind him arrived one after another.
"Where are we?" Luo Feng asked, looking at the not-so-high mountain peak in front of him.
"It should be in the middle of this mountainous area. About five kilometers further ahead, there is a forest."
Luo Feng looked at the mountain road he came from and remembered that the mountains and woods had their own troops, but the number was limited and they could only temporarily resist Xiu Jie. If he ran straight to the woods, sooner or later Xiu Jie would catch up.
Instead of doing this, it is better to use these mountain roads to resist Xiujie's attack first, so that he can defend for a few more days.
"Hongpao Banner, guard the mountain road over there. The archer battalion is arrayed behind, preparing for long-range attacks." Luo Feng pointed to the mountain road from where he came and shouted.
Upon hearing Luo Feng's order, Zhang Xinyi immediately directed the Hongpao Banner to set up defenses at the location designated by Luo Feng, and the archer battalion was quickly in place.
"Are we going to fight Xiu Jie here?" Zhang Xinyi asked.
If they fight here, they will definitely be surrounded by Xiujie, and there will be no way to retreat.
Luo Feng immediately shook his head and said: "No, just resist it and try to delay it for a longer time. When the virtual force cuts off Xiujie's retreat, we will be half successful."
Counting the time, Zhang Xuli should have arrived at Kong En City, but he didn't know how long it would take for Zhang Xuli to capture Kong En City and cut off Xiujie's retreat.
"There are three roads leading to this small basin in the mountains." Zhang Xinyi opened the map and said: "King, look, this is the road we just came from, and the road on the opposite side is the road leading to the woods. There are also One, connected to the flat ground outside.”
Xiujie has an army of 200,000, and he will definitely not follow Luo Feng and pursue Luo Feng in the direction of retreat. It is the wisest choice to surround the entire mountainous area.
"It seems that we have to send troops to defend this road." Luo Feng pointed to another mountain road on the map.
"Then I will immediately send a sword soldier flag over, and then a bow battalion for long-range support."
"Okay." Luo Feng said: "There is also a mountain road leading to the woods. It must not be blocked by Xiujie's army, otherwise we will not be able to retreat to the woods, and we will really be suffocated in this mountainous area."
"I will immediately send some soldiers out to investigate the movements of Xiujie's army. We will evacuate before they seal the mountain road leading to the woods."
"Well, in order to seal the mountain road leading to the woods, it must pass through the woods. We have deployed troops in the woods, and we should be able to hold on for a while."
Unexpectedly, Luo Feng, a combat hero, could deploy troops so well that he was no weaker than an ordinary strategy hero.
"You can do it. You can do this early." Zhang Xinyi said with a smile.
"How can I have such ability?" Luo Feng said: "Before setting off, Yuxuan told me two things: don't defend the city and don't fight head-on; three things are good, the mountains are good for deploying troops, and the woods are good for deploying troops. , the river is conducive to the deployment of troops; a guarantee guarantees a route of retreat."
"This is asking us to go to the mountains, go through the woods, and go to the rivers."
"Yes, this can delay time."
"What about the river?" Zhang Xinyi asked.
Luo Feng shook his head and said, "I didn't see a river, and I didn't have time to find a suitable place to fight Xiu Jie."
While talking, the mountain road where they came was already making sounds of fighting. More than a dozen red flag soldiers lined up in a row to block the mountain road. They lined up layer by layer behind them, and they lined up fifty rows before they reached the entrance of the mountain road.
At the entrance of the mountain road, thousands of red-robed flags stood neatly on both sides, ready to rush into the mountain road at any time. In the middle, archers were lined up, pulling their bow strings and attacking the mountain road.
However, many arrows were shot from the mountain road and landed between the red robe flag in front and the archers at the entrance. Soldiers fell down from time to time, but soon the soldiers on the side rushed to take up their positions.
"I wonder how long it can last?" Zhang Xinyi whispered worriedly.
Although the voice was soft, Luo Feng could hear it clearly and instinctively replied: "I don't know, but on the long and narrow mountain road, Xiujie lost his military advantage. It depends on when Xiujie's army can reach the woods and block our retreat path. .”
"Xiujie's army is spreading out along the mountains and extending to both sides. They should reach the woods soon."
For Luo Feng, everything now is a forest. As long as the passage of the forest is blocked, it is absolutely impossible for him to leave the mountain.
"Pay close attention to the movements in the woods. As soon as Xiujie's army appears, we will retreat immediately."
Zhang Xinyi felt that the passage leading to the woods was the key to survival, and said: "King, I will go to the woods first to ensure that the retreat is guarded."
Having Zhang Xinyi go and deploy the troops according to the retreat plan can indeed improve the safety of the troops here's retreat.
"Okay, then you should pay attention to your own safety. If you really can't hold it, retreat. Don't worry about this. I will find a way."
