The time goes back to 3 days ago, which was August 10, 290 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Army.

Within the Luolin Empire, the Tipping Nine Mountains.

…

"Brother! I want to take a bath!"

Alan's dissatisfied screams resounded throughout Su Cheng's tent.

"Alan... just bear with it..." Su Cheng looked helplessly at the disheveled Alan in front of him.

"I can't bear it anymore!" Alan's voice was filled with tears. "It's been 9 days since I followed you to climb the Tianning Mountains! I haven't taken a shower for 9 days!

Many places on my body are itchy!”

"It's not just you who hasn't showered in nine days, all of us haven't showered either."

Su Cheng smiled bitterly and pointed at himself, who was as unkempt as Alan, and then nuzzled his chin at Deng Jiaer, who was sitting obediently beside him and was also dirty.

"Alan..." Deng Jiaer began to comfort Alan together with Su Cheng at this time, "Please bear with it a little longer. In a few days we will successfully cross the Tipping Mountains and reach the Feihai Plain. Then

Then you can take a good bath."

"Well..." Alan looked like he was about to cry, "I'm so obsessed... Why do I have to follow you over the mountains... If I had known, I would have stayed in the camp outside Mayin City, following you

The soldiers there are carrying out the 'fight to deceive the enemy' together..."

Looking at Alan who was now dirty and as if he was about to cry, Su Cheng smiled helplessly and raised his hand to rub Alan's little head:

"Okay, please bear with me for a while longer. I promise you that I will give you more pocket money when I return to Pendragon. Okay, go to sleep now. We have to get up early tomorrow morning and continue climbing the mountain."

"snort."

After hearing what Su Cheng said, Alan's expression softened slightly, and after snorting, he climbed onto the bed that had been made long ago. As soon as he turned over, he fell asleep almost immediately, with the thin sheet covering his body.

Being undulated rhythmically.

Looking at Alan who fell asleep immediately, Su Cheng smiled helplessly again, then held the knight's sword on his left waist, turned around and walked out of the camp.

Deng Jiaer immediately followed suit and followed Su Cheng out of the camp.

It was a sunny day tonight, and the bright moonlight was pouring into the valley where they were now.

Su Cheng, who walked out of his commander's camp, looked at the Eastern Route Army camp stationed in this valley under the moonlight.

This is a very open valley surrounded by mountains. Ever since he led the Eastern Route Army's large troops to cross the Tipping Mountains, Su Cheng has never seen such a suitable place for a large army to camp.

There are so many mountains in the Tipping Mountains that it is not easy to find such an open flat area.

"Deng Jia'er..." Su Cheng smiled bitterly and said to Deng Jia'er who was following him, "It's much more difficult to cross the Tipping Mountains than I thought..."

Although the Tipping Mountains can be considered a relatively "petite" type among many mountain ranges, with neither high nor complex terrain, they are still mountains after all.

When crossing the Tippenning Mountains, Su Cheng and others were lucky to find a suitable road, but it was Su Cheng and others' normal situation to find a way and have to make their own way.

There are basically few good roads to walk on! So far, the soldiers of the Eastern Route Army have been cutting rocks, cutting down trees, cutting grass and bamboo, and just relying on the swords and axes in their hands to carve out a road!

Having to open the road manually is not the most difficult part of crossing the Tippenning Mountains.

The hardest part is that there are so many "small animals" in the mountains!

For the soldiers of the Eastern Route Army, basically every day someone would be bitten or even die of poisoning from all kinds of poisonous mosquitoes, giant ants, strange scorpions, centipedes, leeches, and poisonous snakes.

Now, including Su Cheng, Willie and other knights, the 30,000-strong army responsible for crossing the Tippenning Mountains from top to bottom, whether they are knights or ordinary soldiers, feel sick when they think of these unpreventable and extremely disgusting "little animals"

Scalp numbness.

Many people even couldn't sleep well, for fear that these "little animals" would sneak into the tents and into their beds during the night.

Therefore, Su Cheng had to send more manpower to guard the night, not only to guard against possible pursuit by Luo Lin's army, but also to guard against these extremely disgusting "little animals".

Fortunately, there are no tigers in the Tippenning Mountains. Large and ferocious beasts like cheetahs can be considered a blessing in misfortune.

After hearing Su Cheng's complaint, Deng Jiaer also smiled bitterly, and then continued:

"No matter how hard it is, we have to keep climbing. After all, this is the only way we can reach Feihai Plain the fastest."

Having said this, Deng Jia paused for a moment and then continued:

"Fortunately, we have now crossed over the Tippenning Mountains and arrived at the southwest side of the Tippenning Mountains. The time it takes to cross the Tippenning Mountains is far less than we expected."

Having said this, Deng Jiaer suddenly let out a few proud laughs.

"Luo Xie and Ou Ren, who are still guarding Mayin City, may not have noticed that our Eastern Route Army has left until now, right? Who said that if you want to go to the Feihai Plain, you must pass through Mayin City?

?”

After hearing what Deng Jiaer said, the corners of Su Cheng's mouth could not help but turn up slightly, revealing an intriguing smile.

On the night of August 1, 10 days ago, Alan's words, "Can we only go to Feihai Plain through Mayin City?" Su Cheng was awakened.

Su Cheng realized: That's right! Can we only go to Feihai Plain through Mayin City?

Su Cheng, who was awakened by Alan's words, finally realized that everyone, including him, had fallen into a blind spot in thinking.

Everyone, including Su Cheng, accidentally fell into a blind spot in thinking.

Mayin City is located on the transportation artery leading to Feihai Plain, so if Su Cheng leads the Eastern Route Army to follow this transportation artery to Feihai Plain, he must pass through Mayin City, which is firmly guarded by the enemy.

Just fine.

Everyone, including Su Cheng, fell into this overwhelming predicament.

Su Cheng and others have been thinking about how to capture Mayin City, and then pass through Mayin City and follow this flat road to Feihai Plain.

Su Cheng and others have been thinking about this problem all the time, so much so that in the end they were unable to get out of this quagmire-like problem.

Su Cheng, who was awakened by Alan's words, finally realized at that moment:

Yes, my current goal is to [go to Feihai Plain], not [capture Mayin City]! The question I should be thinking about should not be how to capture Mayin City, but how to get to Feihai Plain.

That’s right! As long as we can successfully reach the Feihai Plain, it doesn’t matter whether Mayin City is captured or not!

Because from the location of the East Route Army at that time, if you wanted to go to the Feihai Plain, there was only this flat road that you could take, so Su Cheng himself was obsessed with thinking about how to capture Mayin City and then take this road.

Avenue.

And at that moment, Su Cheng also realized:

Why should I always insist on going to Feihai Plain through this flat road? Can't I take another way?

After thinking about this, Su Cheng aimed at the Tippinning Mountains, an east-west mountain range located on the west side of Mayin City.

The Feihai Plain is located 200 miles southwest of the Tipping Mountains.

In other words, as long as you cross the Tipping Mountains, come to the southwest side of the Tipping Mountains, and then walk another 200 miles, you can reach the Feihai Plain!

Su Cheng, who was awakened by Alan's words and got out of his blind spot, immediately made arrangements for the combat plan of "Crossing the Tipping Mountains".

First of all, because they had to cross the Tipping Mountains, the cavalry horses were simply unable to do such a difficult task, so Su Cheng left all the cavalry, wounded soldiers, and part of the infantry here, with only 30,000 soldiers.

The army carried out this "mountain-climbing operation".

And these soldiers who stayed outside Mayin City were not without tasks.

The mission of these soldiers who stayed outside Mayin City was to carry out "deception operations", and they were responsible for producing a lot of smoke on time every day to mislead and deceive the Luo Lin army in Mayin City.

The defenders in the city were led to believe that the entire Eastern Route Army was still outside Mayin City, but that they did not attack the city due to some unknown reasons.

Through "fighting to deceive the enemy", Luo Xie and Ou Ren relaxed their vigilance, making them completely unaware that the large Eastern Route Army troops outside the city had all left.

In order to achieve the best "deception effect", Su Cheng left a large amount of military rations in the camp outside Mayin City, and asked the soldiers who carried out the "deception operation" to cook these ingredients and make real

The smoke from the kitchen was used to deceive the defenders of Mayin City.

It has to be said that the "fighting to bully the enemy" formulated by Su Cheng can be said to be extremely wasteful.

By creating a large amount of cooking smoke, we can create the illusion that the defenders inside Mayin City still think that the 40,000 Eastern Route Army troops are still outside Mayin City. How many ingredients do we need to burn to achieve this effect?

However, although this operation is quite wasteful and will waste a lot of food, it will be worth it if we can successfully deceive the defenders in Mayin City and make them think that the entire Eastern Route Army is still outside Mayin City.

.

Su Cheng left three new knights behind, and asked them to take charge of commanding the thousands of soldiers who stayed outside Mayin City to carry out this "deception operation", while Su Cheng personally led all the remaining knights, and the three

The army of ten thousand crossed the Tipping Mountains, took this road that cannot be called a "road", bypassed Mayin City, and headed straight for the Feihai Plain!

It has been 9 days since we officially set off to climb the mountain on the morning of August 2nd.

Although the nine-day journey over the mountain was very difficult and dangerous, and many soldiers even died during the process, Su Cheng and his knights and soldiers finally made it through!

Now, Su Cheng has successfully climbed from the northeast to the southwest of the Tipping Mountains.

It is very close to the Feihai Plain, which is 200 miles southwest of the Tipping Mountains!

"We're almost there... Feihai Plain... I wonder what the current situation of the Battle of Feihai is like... I wonder if Alyssa and the others are okay now..." Su looked at the military tents around him.

Cheng murmured, "My troops and I will definitely catch up!"
Chapter completed!
