The ten legions of the Fourth Alliance of the Forest Expeditionary Force attacked Mangguan City from ten directions, causing the garrison team inside Mangguan City to scramble and desperately defend.
However, the Mangguan City garrison with only 50,000 soldiers was indeed unable to withstand the repeated attacks of 100,000 soldiers of the Forest Expeditionary Force. Many city walls were destroyed and many battlements were occupied.
Under this situation, the leader of Mangguan State had no choice but to send a message to mobilize the Mangguan State troops stationed on the east and west borders, asking them to return to Mangguan City to join forces against the forest expeditionary force.
Shan Ying got Mang Guanbang's troops stationed on the east and west sides and began to advance towards the capital Mang Guan City. He immediately commanded the first coalition army and the second coalition army of the Forest Expeditionary Force to ambush in a mountain ridge to the east, preparing to ambush the eastern part of Mang Guan Bang who returned to the capital. coalition forces.
According to the information collected by Shan Ying, he knew that the Eastern Alliance Army of Mang Guan State had 100,000 soldiers. It was one of the main forces of Mang Guan State and the closest force to Mang Guan City.
Therefore, Shanying decided to surround and annihilate Mang Guanbang's main force with twice the force.
In addition, he also ordered the Third Alliance of the Forest Expeditionary Force to intercept the Western Alliance of the Mangguan State in the west of Mangguan City, block the Western Alliance of the Mangguan State from advancing eastward, and buy time for the First and Second Alliance of the Forest Expeditionary Army to fight.
Huang Ling received Shan Ying's plan, and after arranging the defense of Banqi State's main coalition forces, he, Huang Long, Jin Long, and Gui Shan shrank and stood on Jin Shan's back, and Jin Shan led them to the forest expeditionary force. The third coalition army flew in the direction of blocking the western coalition forces of Mang Guanbang.
Huang Long said: "Shanying's arrangements this time are a bit fragmented, and the teams should not be so scattered."
"According to his plan, the Fourth Alliance Army may have to dedicate several legions to help the Third Alliance Army. Otherwise, the Third Alliance Army will be in danger." Jin Long said.
"If the Fourth Alliance Army dedicates a few legions to help the Third Alliance Army, the Fourth Alliance Army's ability to siege Mangguan City will be weakened, and the Fourth Alliance Army will also be in danger." Huang Long said.
"According to Shan Ying's message, the Third Alliance Army took the initiative to attack to the west. It should encounter the Western Alliance Army of the Mangguan State far away from Mangguan City, and then confront the Western Alliance Army of the Mangguan State. Judging from his plan Look, although the danger of the Third Alliance Army is there, it is not very big. If the Third Alliance Army can take advantage of a good terrain, it may be able to hold back the Western Alliance Army of Mangguan State. We are going there now to help the Third Alliance Army choose a suitable place. , if there is a chance, it is best to kill a few more high-ranking generals in Mangguanbang to weaken the morale of the western coalition forces in Mangguanbang." Guishan said.
"Shan Ying's plan involves some risks, but it also shows the spirit of the forest expeditionary force. I heard Shan Ying say that they had more opportunities to practice in Banqi State during this period, and the cultivation of many soldiers has improved. , all want to practice in actual combat. Therefore, this time the plan is more ambitious, and I want everyone to take a little risk." Jinshan said while flying.
"As long as you are not arrogant, you can take a little risk. I hope it goes well this time!" Huang Long said.
"I analyzed the situation of Mang Guan State and compared it with Shan Ying's plan. I think Shan Ying's plan is still feasible. Mang Guan State has only 300,000 soldiers in total, except for the nearly five people stationed in Mang Guan City. Ten thousand soldiers, the total number of troops stationed in various parts of Mangguan State will not exceed 300,000, and in the western and northern direction of Mangguan State, Mangguan State also needs to defend other divine states, so it is impossible to withdraw all the troops. According to relevant intelligence, there are at least 50,000 to 60,000 Mangguanbang soldiers stationed there. Therefore, the number of soldiers that Mangguanbang can use to deal with the forest expeditionary force will not exceed 230,000. If we subtract the number of soldiers from the eastern Mangguanbang coalition, There are 100,000 soldiers. The Mang Guanbang team that can confront the Third Forest Expeditionary Alliance Army only has 1,340,000 soldiers at most. It is impossible to severely damage the Third Forest Expeditionary Army. Therefore, the Third Forest Expeditionary Alliance Army is in danger, but The danger is not great, as long as you make reasonable use of the terrain, stick to your position, and pay attention to avoiding frontal battles, you can preserve your strength." Huang Ling said.
"The Third Alliance of the Forest Expeditionary Force is a team that is good at mobile warfare. When they fought in Lang Anbang, they created a good example. I believe they will not suffer!" Kameyama said.
After two hours of flight, Jinshan saw the third coalition force of the Forest Expeditionary Force ahead.
At this time, the third coalition of the Forest Expeditionary Force was advancing rapidly.
They have been advancing on the grassland to the west of Mangguan City for two consecutive days and have reached a place more than 170 miles away from Mangguan City.
However, according to calculations, the distance between the Western Alliance Army of Mangguan State and the Third Alliance Army of the Forest Expeditionary Force is still nearly a hundred miles.
Guishan sent a message to the marshal of the Third Alliance of the Forest Expeditionary Force and said: "General Manager Jinshan will take us to the front to observe. You will rest after marching to the small mountain area in front. If there is a suitable blocking place, you can prepare in advance. "
The marshal of the Third Alliance of the Forest Expeditionary Force received the message from Guishan, looked up at the sky, and then smiled and said back: "Thank you, special envoy!"
The marshal of the Third Alliance of the Forest Expeditionary Force was very happy to get the help of General Manager Jinshan and Special Envoy Guishan.
He knew that the arrival of General Manager Jinshan would definitely cause a lot of trouble and losses to the enemy, and the combat pressure on the Third Alliance Army he led would be greatly reduced.
Jinshan took Huang Ling, Huanglong, Jinlong, and Guishan and flew over the head of the third coalition of the Forest Expeditionary Force, flying straight to the west.
A quarter of an hour later, a ridge appeared in front of Jinshan. Although this ridge was not very tall, it was extremely steep and difficult to climb. Only by walking along the road in the valley could it be smoother.
"Look, the mountains below are suitable for the Third Alliance Army to be stationed to intercept the Western Alliance Army of Mangguan State. From east to west, there are only two roads that can pass, and other places are not easy to enter and exit. As long as these two roads are guarded, It will be difficult for Mang Guanbang’s western coalition forces to cross this mountain range,” Jin Long said.
"This is a good place! Well, very good. I sent a message to the Third Alliance Army, telling them to speed up and occupy this mountain range and occupy both roads from east to west." Kameyama said happily. After finishing speaking, he immediately sent a message to the third coalition of the Forest Expeditionary Force.
According to Guishan's request, the marshal of the third coalition of the Forest Expeditionary Force knew that after reaching the small mountain ridge in front, he could station and repair, preparing to block the western coalition of Mangguan State. However, he had no idea how far it was to the hills ahead.
Now, he received a message from Guishan and knew that the third coalition of the forest expeditionary force was still about thirty miles away from the mountains in front, so he ordered the soldiers of the third coalition of the forest expeditionary force: "Everyone is here, cheer up and speed up. Speed, we are only thirty miles away from the mountains in front. Victory or failure depends on this. If we capture the mountains in front, victory will be ours! Charge!"
Following the order of the Marshal of the Third Alliance of the Forest Expeditionary Force, one hundred thousand soldiers cheered up again and rushed forward.
They all know that occupying a good terrain is an important condition for victory in battle. Although it is very difficult to advance quickly now, as long as you occupy a favorable fighting terrain, you can easily defeat the enemy with one against ten, and successfully block the western coalition forces of Mangguan State.
Therefore, when the 100,000 soldiers of the Third Alliance of the Forest Expeditionary Army heard the marshal's order, they quickly overcame their fatigue, cheered up, and rushed towards the mountains thirty miles away.
Jinshan continued to move forward with Huang Ling, Huanglong, Jinlong, and Guishan. They had to fly over the mountains and observe the west side of the mountains to find the most appropriate blocking location.
Jinshan flies along a road from east to west.
Huang Ling, Huang Long, Jin Long, and Guishan carefully observed the mountains below, looking for a suitable blocking site.
"The road in this mountain is relatively narrow. It is difficult for ten creatures to walk side by side, which will inevitably slow down the movement. But it is a good blocking site. Although it is impossible to achieve a situation where one man can block the barrier and ten thousand people cannot open it, it is still a blocking battle. It’s a must-choice venue!” Kameyama said.
"Yes! If tens of thousands of soldiers are stationed in this ravine, they can completely block the advance of hundreds of thousands of soldiers. It is a very good blocking site!" Huang Long said.
"From east to west, it is dozens of miles long, and the widest point is only two to three hundred meters, and the narrowest point is only ten or twenty meters. It is really a perfect blocking site." Jin Long said with certainty.
"There is no problem on this road. We can stop a hundred thousand troops with 40,000 to 50,000 soldiers. But, what about the other road?" Huang Ling said.
"After we have seen this road, we will go over to the west of the mountain and look at that road, and understand both roads clearly," Jinshan said.
"Based on my observations on the east side of the mountain, I think this road should be the main road from east to west, and that road should be the supplement. Let's finish this road first," Kameyama said.
"Okay!" Huang Ling nodded in affirmation.
Jinshan continued to fly westward along the road.
Half an hour later, Jinshan flew out of the mountains.
To the west of the mountains, there is also a vast and flat grassland with delicious water and grass and many creatures.
"There are many creatures in Mangguan State. According to the territory and the number of creatures in Mangguan State, it should be a relatively large divine state in Tianguan Kingdom. However, Mangguan State does not have many teams. This is worthy of our attention. ." Huang Ling said.
"I heard from the elders before that there are more creatures in the human race, but their teams are very small. Most of them practice on their own, or join sects and colleges to practice. The demon clan has more teams in various divine countries, but Most of them do not exceed 500,000. Our Forest God Kingdom has many teams, mainly because the Forest God Kingdom has a large territory and a large number of creatures in it!" Jinshan said.
"Based on the proportion of the forest god's territory to the number of creatures in it, our forest god's team is not that large. The forest god's territory is equivalent to eight or nine ordinary god's countries, and the number of creatures in it is probably the same as other kingdoms. Six or seven times that of the Divine Kingdom. According to the proportion, the Forest Divine Kingdom should have at least a team of 2 million soldiers, but we only have 1.5 million soldiers now, which is relatively small compared with other Divine Kingdoms." Huang Long said .
"Yes, if there are more teams, the burden on the Divine Kingdom will be heavy. Our team can be kept at 1.5 million soldiers. There is no need to increase it!" Huang Ling said.
"Look, are they the western coalition forces of Mang Guanbang more than 20 miles ahead?" Guishan suddenly pointed to the distance to the west and said.
After hearing Kameyama's words, everyone immediately looked in the direction he pointed.
I saw a large group of creatures moving rapidly towards the east on the distant grassland to the west, sending up pieces of smoke and dust.
The pieces of rising smoke and dust, like lions, tigers, and flying dragons, are constantly changing in mid-air, demonstrating the tenacious fighting will of the soldiers of the Western Alliance Army of Mangguan State.
