The Difficult Mountain Spirit Kingdom
The mountain spirit realm is mostly in the tropics, with very high temperatures. Even if you live in the mountains, you can feel the hot climate.
Of course, the characteristics of the tropics are not only high temperatures, but also heavy precipitation.
Although it rained, it had both advantages and disadvantages for our soldiers.
The advantage is that it is not so stuffy when wearing armor, but the disadvantage is that climbing is not as smooth.
Fortunately, a special dispatch team had previously connected a rope to the mountain road, otherwise we would have been in a very passive position.
"Hurry up, our task is still very heavy."
In the middle of the climbing team, Li Fei urged everyone.
It's almost dark now. If we don't climb up quickly during the day, it will be very dangerous when we wait until night.
After hearing Li Fei's words, the group sped up again. The soldiers of Yan State, who had undergone long-term training and had full meals every day, were in good physical condition. Although the slope of this mountain was relatively steep, it was still a small problem for these soldiers.
If you look over here from the opposite hilltop, you can see several rope climbing routes on this mountain road. After this, this road will definitely become an easy-to-walk mountain road.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the backs of the last group of people, but did not lengthen their shadows. The overall westerly slope did not create much of a sun angle.
The only shadows that were elongated were those of the bison drinking water in the mountain valley and the shadows of the geese flying in the sky.
Of course, these soldiers cannot appreciate such beautiful scenery, just as it is difficult for farmers living in the countryside to feel how beautiful the place they live in is.
What they are concerned about now is how to cut off this small river.
Speaking of this, we have to talk about Yan State’s experience in building a bridge across the main stream of the Yan River. It was these soldiers who took the initiative to block the river.
In today's society, without strong technical conditions, there is naturally no weapon as powerful as cement.
So we can only do some stupid things.
Piles of fallen rocks piled up, and within a few days and with the efforts of hundreds of soldiers, a simple dam was built.
Fortunately, this is just a small river in the mountains, the project volume is not large, and the original rain is just a light rain, which will disappear after a few drops and will not have much impact on the river channel.
The blocked water spread to the surrounding areas, but the rising speed of the water was obviously slower than the speed at which the soldiers built the canal. Without the supply from the upstream, the downstream river became smaller and smaller until it sank into the ground and became an "underground river".
These soldiers had no ability to block the underground river and could only let it flow. However, by the time the water reached the elven city-state, it had been diluted so much that the remaining water was not enough for their thousand people to use.
The main goal has been achieved, but it will not last long. As long as there is a small rain in this divine realm with huge rainfall, the plan of Yan State will fail.
But even if it fails, the city-state will not feel good. First, they will be short of water for a few days, and when the water accumulates enough, they will directly break the dam and give them a "flood".
No matter how it develops, Yan Country will not lose money.
The way to deal with the turtle is to force it to come forward. No matter there is a shortage of water or plenty of water, it is necessary for this city-state to come forward.
····
"Our spies have discovered that the upstream water source has been cut off by the local authorities."
Lingtong reports the current situation to the messenger.
At this time, the Shanling Kingdom had been short of water for three days. This was a fatal blow to the elves, who usually had high requirements for water flow.
"The enemy has built a dam upstream. If they destroy it, our city-state will likely be flooded. Although they certainly won't be able to hold out for long, it's simply impossible for us to hold on now."
"We must take the initiative to attack now. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for us. Right now, the enemy has only accumulated some river water. Once the water flows more, we will be in trouble."
Lingtong analyzed.
····
"Is there no other way?"
The messenger of God asked in a low voice.
Now their Shanling Kingdom is just starting out, and its military strength, especially its field combat strength, is not strong. If they fight against the Yan Kingdom, whose entire army is armored, in the field, they will be in a very passive position.
"There's no other way. Our only option now is to launch a surprise attack at night. The enemy won't expect us to strike so quickly. Maybe we can inflict a serious blow on them."
"The most important thing is that there is panic and rioting in the city. If this continues, we may not be able to suppress it."
Lingtong analyzed.
"We can't delay this now. If there's no rain in the near future, the flooding will be very serious. More importantly, without sufficient water, the spirits in our city may not be able to control their emotions."
Another elf analyzed.
"Okay, you arrange the attack."
The messenger of God said helplessly.
"yes"
Lingtong answered and began to prepare.
····
"General, you are truly talented. I wonder how Yan Nation will respond to our flanking attack this time."
Behind the mountain, the elven army was marching along the mountain road. There must be a large number of enemy troops in front of them, and they could only break through by going around from behind.
"We still need to be careful. We must be cautious in deploying our spies. This road has been used by the enemy many times, so it is definitely fraught with danger."
Lingtong said rigorously that the exploration of the surrounding area cannot be ignored.
"Forced March!"
Lingtong shouted, and the entire army began to walk flexibly on the mountain road. As mountain elves, flexibility on the mountain road is their talent.
