Chapter 184 The crowd is like a sea(1/2)
It was the winter moon, and frost and wind were blowing across the land.
The boundary between the two regions in the southeast has long been blurred by horse hooves...
If someone looks down from the sky, he will be able to see -
The dense army of soldiers lined up in a long queue, like a river running across the vast land. The flags were flying in the wind, as if they were declaring war with the sky.
The monster beasts, war horses and beasts of burden seem to be the leaping fish in this "river".
The chariot, the chariot of arrows, was a determined surge.
The most eye-catching existence of the rocks in the "river" is undoubtedly a huge building that looks like a tower connected to the sky.
The carriage is thirty feet high and has horns and cornices.
The top is shaped like an iron umbrella, with light in it.
The layer below the roof is cast like a battlement, with large crossbows mounted on top, and armored soldiers guarding it.
From then on, everything below seemed to be an iron wall, dark and impenetrable, solid and leak-free, like a moving city wall.
Within the iron wall, there was the sound of machine movement, click, click, bang! Regular and constant.
At the bottom there are eight pairs of heavy wheels.
The ground that was rolled over became smooth...
The overall appearance is like a huge iron bucket, which is added to the base of the car and covered with the dome of the building. This structure should be a bit awkward, but the ingenious design of the masters of Qi State makes it look so
Reasonable and complete. When it specifically comes into view, all you feel is majesty and fear.
A unicorn beast, which is more than seven feet tall and twelve feet long, all white, leads the way alone.
The back muscles like mountains tightened the iron rope.
The four legs wrapped in white velvet provide a very stable grip.
With such a huge body, there is not much sound when every step is taken.
It really has the power of a mountain, flowing through the muscles and bones. It is gentle and does not make any sound.
The name of this vehicle is "Rong Chong", which is a military formation killer weapon secretly created by the Qi Guo Weapon Making Workshop. This is the first time it has been shown to the public!
This time during the summer expedition, millions of troops gathered, but only three Rongchong vehicles were mobilized from the weapon-making workshop. This shows how precious they are.
The strange beast pulling the cart is called "Negative Mountain".
It is also a strange beast specially bred by the Daqi Beast Taming Workshop, just to increase the mobility of huge weapons such as the Rong Chong. The Rong Chong itself can move, but due to its weight, it cannot get up quickly. With the negative mountain
The bull beast can completely keep up with the moving speed of the army.
The research on ordnance, the cultivation of exotic beasts, the development of Taoism... all aspects are areas where the major hegemonic powers compete.
Due to the vastness of the world, only six countries can hold the title of hegemony. These six countries are strong in all aspects, and finally converge into a huge national power, which is the foundation of hegemony. Their strength is far from comparable to other countries.
At this time, in the inner room of a Rongchong car in the center.
Dense and complex formations cover the entire room. The dome, the four walls, and the ground cannot be bypassed, no matter whether you look up or down.
There is actually a window in the room. You can see the Rongchong outside from the inside, you can cast sunlight, and you can feel the wind in the process. Looking in from the outside, you can only see the iron wall.
Cao Jie sat alone in front of the case, but he was not busy with any military affairs. He was holding a book in his hand and reading.
Every inch of the interior space of this kind of military formation weapon must be used. Therefore, even the room where the commander of Faxia is stationed is not spacious.
There is not even any space-expanding formation application, because the formation pattern engraved here needs to serve the entire Rongchong.
Rongchong people are born for war!
Opposite Caodu, the overly young-looking Supervisor Qin Tian was sitting by the window, quietly looking at the sky in the driving car.
The robes of the star map are hanging down like shadows in a dream.
"What does prison mean?" Cao Jie asked casually.
Maybe he was a little tired, so he put the book down and turned it upside down on the desk.
The book cover appeared, and the title of the book was "Da Xia Fang Zhi"
He has long been familiar with this book that records the geography and scenery of Daxia, and his leisurely reading at the moment is more to capture inspiration for the war.
The Xia Kingdom is by no means the "can be destroyed" opponent as many Qi people think now.
Unfortunately, this kind of awareness exists on a large scale.
And it will definitely influence his reputation as Cao Jie.
It is completely foreseeable that as long as there is a slight obstacle in the battle to conquer Xia, someone from both the government and the public will jump out and scold him for being incompetent...
Of course, this is not something he would consider now.
And he didn't expect to get any answers to the questions he asked casually. Because Qi Xia fought together, the two sides' national power was entangled, and the secrets of heaven were chaotic. Everything involving Qi Xia at this time was beyond human calculations -
Unless the "manpower" is stronger than the sum of Qi and Xia, but how is that possible?
"If you count all the people, you cannot calculate wars. If you measure ghosts and gods, you cannot measure the country." This hexagram master is the most reasonable.
Even the person in charge of the Daqi Qin Tianjian, the great master of astrology, and the main stream of divination masters in the River of Destiny, would not be able to calculate anything about this Qi-Xia war.
"I'm just looking at the clouds." Ruan Yuan said.
Cao Ji shook his head and smiled bitterly.
It seems that Ruan Yuan only intends to fulfill the position of "Suppressing the Army and Military Advisor".
Of course, if Ruan Yuan really wants to give advice on military strategy, his attitude will not be the same.
This so-called "young daughter-in-law's face" with a slightly bitter color is as cold as iron in terms of military affairs.
"Please worry about isolating the communication channel," Cao Jie finally said.
When it came to business, Ruan Yuan calmed down and said formally: "The main communication channel of Xia Kingdom was broken three hours ago. By noon tomorrow, the extraordinary communication channel in Xia Kingdom can be completely blocked."
The communication array that must exist in every government of the Xia Kingdom has a unique channel that exists at the transcendent level to facilitate Xia Ting's rule over various places. This communication channel connects various places, and it must be unique and non-replicable.
Through the secret time and space, Xia Ting's will will be implemented, and it will not be invaded by wills other than those that meet the conditions. It is absolutely safe and reliable.
The so-called main communication channel of Xia Kingdom refers to this.
Either with voiceprints, or with Yuan Li, or with focus on the five elements, or with space... in short, there are various complex compositions. For example, the main communication channel in Qi State is built based on star power, and Ruan Yuan is responsible for maintaining it.
The composition and essential information of the main communication channel in any country must be the top secret of the country.
It is not easy to find it. It is an extremely complicated battle to capture it.
But before the armies of the two sides came into contact, Qi Fang, under the leadership of Ruan Yuan, took the lead in destroying the main communication channel in Xia Kingdom - to be honest, this is not a great thing. When the war really started
, once the national power is suppressed, the military power is strangled, it is only a matter of time before communication is cut off. The great thing is that time...
Ruan Yuan finished it too quickly!
This means that the communication disadvantage of the Qi army's away battle can be erased before noon tomorrow.
It has considerable significance for the entire war!
In a real war, the importance of battlefield messaging is unquestionable.
All the efforts made by both sides on communication are nothing more than one thing - to interrupt the enemy's communication channel while building one's own communication channel.
Among them, the easiest thing to isolate is long-distance sound transmission.
Secondly, there are utensils such as heart-felt notes.
Existences of the level of Taixu Illusion were isolated as soon as the two sides prepared for war.
From sounds, to Taoism, to spiritual consciousness, and then expanded to all extraordinary levels of communication, it is basically impossible to continue during a national war.
So why in a real war, the thousand-mile voice box and the secret method of long-distance sound transmission are all useless. Information must still be transmitted in the most primitive way, by people and horses.
Humanity itself is the most reliable existence.
This is especially true during the war.
As far as Qi is concerned, the establishment of communication channels mainly relies on the fast-horse flag soldiers patrolling near Rongchong at this moment.
He is riding a wind-walking demon horse bred by the Beast Taming Workshop. During the training, he abandoned everything else and only focused on speed. When running, he can fly at full speed as a monk in the inner palace, and at the highest speed he can catch up with the monks in the outer building!
On horseback, all the flag soldiers put on their trousers and light clothes, carried three command flags on their backs, tied a small flag around their waists, each wore a red collar, and rode away like red clouds.
The communication in the army relies on orders, flags, seals, and drums.
These flag soldiers are all Soaring Dragon Realm monks who have broken the Heaven and Earth Gate. This flag army can be said to be the meridian of the entire Xia army, implementing the will of the commander-in-chief and maintaining the operation of a million-strong army.
"I'm really surprised by the efficiency of the supervision." Cao Jiu smiled. There was a window behind him, and he followed Ruan Yuan's example and looked out the window.
I could only hear Ruan Yang saying softly from behind: "Submit one's orders and everything will go smoothly."
And as far as he could see, below the high Rongchong, there was a sea of people.
…
…
Every soldier who formed a sea of people had a clear face in the eyes of the strong man.
To be continued...
