Chapter 172 Knocking on Tiger Roar Pass

"Hiss..." Jia Wudao couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning when he heard this, and said, "Go straight to Xijing? This..."

"Are you surprised?"

Meng Hu smiled grimly and said, "It's right to be surprised! Even Lao Jia, you are surprised. I believe others will be surprised too. I am afraid that even Qiu Yutang's little widow would never have thought that Meng Hu would dare to attack Xijing! Humph, this has the suddenness of tactical surprise and unpredictable attack, and the hope of success will increase greatly!"

Qi Diaozi said: "General, it is possible to be unexpected, but it may not be possible to attack him. If the Beishi was not bad as expected, Qiu Yutang would be in front of the defense of Killing Tiger's mouth, but Heifengkou and Daojian Gorge would also have heavy troops to garrison!"

"No matter that much." Meng Hu waved his hand and said viciously, "Even if Qiu Yutang, the little widow, had already thought of it and had already prepared a solution for it. We have made a decision in Xijing! If she wanted to force us into a dead end, we would give her a ruthless one, so that the little widow would know how powerful we are!"

Qi Diaozi said in a voice: "But the general has thought that this will be a dangerous road full of thorns and a very dangerous one!"

"A dangerous road with thorns growing in danger?"

Meng Hu asked back, "Is it not a dangerous road with thorns and thorns on the Qingyun Mountain? Since there are dangerous roads on both sides, why not take a dangerous road that makes Qiu Yutang and Mingyue Empire feel painful? Since Qiu Yutang wants to force people into a dead end, she should have the awareness of paying the corresponding price!"

"Since the general has decided, I won't say much more."

Qi Diaozi focused his head and said in a serious tone, "But when going to Xijing, the action must be hidden. At least you must not reveal any rumors before you reach Xijing! Otherwise, once Xijing is prepared in advance, it is impossible to take it down in a short time. If Xijing cannot take it down, this military revenge operation will be completely meaningless!"

Jia Wudao said: "But nearly 100,000 troops rushed to Xijing for a long distance. It seems not easy to not leak the news."

A cold murderous intent suddenly surged in Qi Diaozi's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "But there is no way."

"There is indeed a solution!"

Jia Wudao nodded and said grimly, "Didn't we peeled thousands of sets of bright moon battle robes from the Dingzhou army? We were originally prepared for any accidents, but now it is very useful! The general can let Ma Sifeng's light cavalry Qiao Zhun Dingzhou light cavalry travel around and clean up the necessary paths of the army in advance. Anyone who is likely to find our whereabouts will be killed!"

Qi Diaozi also said: "Although this is a bit cruel, there is nothing we can do about it."

Meng Hu said coldly: "It's decided that this is what Qiu Yutang asked for, and he can't blame others!"

Qi Diaozi said again: "General, let's discuss the marching route now. There are two roads to go from here to Xijing. One is through the Shahukou and the Heifengkou. Then from Daojianxia to Xijing. This road is relatively close, but the Heifengkou will probably be heavily guarded by the Shahukou and the Heifengkou along the way, which may be delayed a lot of time."

Meng Hu shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this road is blocked, what about the other one?"

Qi Diaozi said: "The other road is to go north from here, go north and go east from Bingzhou hinterland, and then go south from Daojianxia to Xijing. The advantage of walking this road is that you may only encounter the obstacles of Daojianxia along the way, but the disadvantage is that you need to walk more than a thousand miles more!"

“就走这条路了!”

Meng Hu pondered for a moment and made a decision quickly, "It's not close to one thousand miles long, but it's not far away, especially last night when it snowed again. With the help of snowboards, it's not impossible to march for two hundred miles a day. It's only five or six days more than a thousand miles, but I'm afraid that even killing the tiger's mouth may not be able to catch it!"

"General is wise." Qi Diaozi smiled sinisterly, "and there is a premonition to humble position."

Meng Hu said oh and asked, "What are the premonitions of Lao Qi?"

Qi Diaozi said in a dark voice: "This time Qiu Yutang and Mingyue Empire will suffer a great loss! Because they never imagined that the rapid march speed of our northern wing army could reach more than 100 miles a day, and could also force the march for half a month without affecting physical strength. This is something that has never happened in the history of Middle-earth World War!"

"Well said."

Meng Hu said, "This time I want to make Qiu Yutang and Mingyue Empire suffer a big loss, so that they will always remember that I, Meng Hu and the Tiger Legion, must not be easily provoked!"

The three of them decided to make up their minds, and suddenly a burst of rapid footsteps sounded behind them.

Meng Hu turned around when he heard the sound, and saw that Ma Sifeng had already strode up to the lonely peak, clasped his fists and bowed, "See General!"

After waved his hand, Meng Hu said calmly: "General Sifeng is exempt from the gift."

Ma Sifeng calmed down and said, "General, I have a saying that I don't know if I should ask?"

Meng Hu frowned and said coldly: "Ask what should be asked, and don't ask what should not be asked!"

"Since that's the case, then the humble position will be offended." Ma Sifeng gritted his teeth and asked in a deep voice, "Are the general ready to withdraw his troops from Tianlang Mountain Road and return to his country?"

孟虎的脸色立刻沉了下来,拧眉不答.

Ma Sifeng raised his chest and said loudly: "I was transferred to the general's command by the governor. In theory, only the general's order should be followed. But no matter what, I am a soldier of the empire and his responsibilities are. There is a saying that I must say that if the general withdraws his troops and returns to his country, he will probably not be able to escape the charge of escaping in the future!"

Meng Hu said coldly: "If this general insists on withdrawing troops and returning to the country, what will the general do?"

Ma Sifeng replied: "Before receiving the new military order to re-supervise, Bei Yi completely obeys the general's condemnation!"

Meng Hu's face then calmed down and said calmly: "General Sifeng, you are thinking too much. Who told you that I am going to withdraw my troops from Tianlang Mountain Road to return to my country? The fact is exactly the opposite of what you think. Not only is this general not going to withdraw his troops and return to my country, but he is also going deep into the hinterland of the Mingyue Empire and rush to the Mingyue Empire capital - Xijing, thousands of miles away!"

"Oh?" Ma Sifeng's expression was shocked when he heard this, and he said in a narrow voice, "The general is going to lead his army to attack Xijing?"

"Not bad!" Meng Hu said with a grim voice, "but to achieve this strategic goal, we still need to rely on the general's light cavalry!"

Ma Sifeng stood up straight and said proudly: "Bei Zhi was the same as before. Before receiving the new military order to re-supervise, Bei Zhi obeyed the general's condemnation to the death. Even if he went up to the Knife Mountain and down the oil pan, Bei Zhi and all the men of the Fourth Division would never frown!"

At the Tiger Roar Pass, the fierce battle has lasted for a full thirty-six days.

关外,光辉帝国军本阵.

Meng Yan shouted to the messenger behind him with excitement, "The messenger, all 200 large catapults bombarded the two cracks, smashed them hard, and smashed them hard for me. The wall of Hu Xiao Pass was about to collapse, and the Mingyue Empire Army was about to collapse, hahaha..."

In the pass, in the open space dozens of steps away from the wall, a large group of black heavy infantry soldiers were waiting for battle.

In front of Mingyue's heavy army, Situ Rui was standing in heavy armor, looking at the increasingly bigger crack on the wall, Situ Rui's face looked extremely solemn.

"Boom boom boom..."

Huge rock bullets kept coming, smashing hard on the outside of the wall. With each violent impact, the crack on the wall would continue to expand a little, and more spider-like tiny cracks spread along the wall in all directions. The originally sturdy wall seemed to be crumbling at this time.

Geng Zhong stood behind Situ Rui and said worriedly: "Sir, this wall will not last long depending on the situation."

Situ Rui nodded slightly and said in a low voice: "Let the soldiers who are in the lockdown take down first. It's too dangerous to continue to stay on top."

Situ Yue licked his chapped lips and said in a hard tone: "Governor, once the wall collapses, this battle will be difficult to fight!"

"If you don't have to fight, you have to fight!" Situ Rui said in a deep voice, "Even if you use your body to block it, you must block the gap!"

Tuoba Ye said with a bitter look on his face, "But the casualties of our army are too great, we need reinforcements!"

These thirty-six days of fierce battle are definitely a true fierce battle. Meng Yan never knew how to be polite to his soldiers. From the first day to today, he was to attack fiercely, attack fiercely, and then attack fiercely! After the thirty-six days of fierce battle, Meng Yan's middle army was indeed suffering heavy casualties, but Situ Rui's Qingzhou Legion was also suffering heavy casualties!

Qiu Yutang left four divisions of the Qingzhou Legion of Situ Rui and three divisions of the Yingzhou Legion, a total of 120,000 troops. However, after thirty-six days of fierce fighting, more than 60,000 people have been killed and more than 9,000 people have been seriously injured. Now the soldiers who can barely go to the battlefield can no longer gather two complete divisions, and the intensity of the war can be imagined.

Of course, the casualties of the Guanghui Empire Army outside the pass were also quite heavy. Meng Yan's Guards Corps were better. The solemn Northwest Corps and Leyu's Southwest Corps were already injured. If the fierce battle of the same intensity continued for another half a month, the system of these two legions could basically be abolished.

Situ Rui thought for a while and turned around to Geng Zhong and said, "Geng Zhong, you should hurry to Fenglin Port immediately and let General Xiao Chengdong immediately transfer two heavy infantry regiments affiliated to the Navy Army to Hu Xiao Pass!"

As far as the war is concerned, more than half of the seven Mingyue Divisions in Hu Xiao Pass have suffered casualties and are exhausted. Now only the two heavy infantry regiments under Xiao Chengdong are still considered a new force. Situ Rui originally wanted to slow down and then invest in this new force, but now it seems that he can't slow down any further.

"yes!"

Geng Zhong bowed to Situ Rui and took the order.

"Swish swish..."

Two huge rock bombs penetrated the sky above the battlefield, carrying a harsh roar, and ruthlessly hit the walls on both sides of the gap. The crumbling wall trembled violently twice, and then collapsed down. Countless gravel and broken bricks shot up everywhere, and the rolling smoke and dust spread everywhere in an instant.

Tiger roars outside the pass.
