attack city

"We can also advance some rest time in the future. If we are lucky, we will have enough time, but there is a high probability that it will still be too late."

Wu Zhongjun said: "However, of course it is okay to take a gamble."

The loss is neither big nor small. After all, duty points are obtained by taking huge risks.

But if this bet wins, even if the duty points are reset, they will still make a profit, not to mention that if they are very lucky, they will not have to lose the duty points.

However, Xiang Yang knew that as long as there was enough time, the probability of winning the bet was very high, but it was difficult to guarantee the loss of duty points.

"I also think this plan is feasible. Whether it's feasible or not, it doesn't matter. Let's do it according to the wishes of the city lord." Bai Qianxue also said.

The others said nothing and left the decision-making power to Xiang Yang.

This is a common practice. Xiang Yang needs everyone to brainstorm. He cannot cover everything, understand everything, and can do everything.

But he needs to make the final decision, and others are actually just suggestions and reminders.

And Xiang Yang was just looking for a reason for his plan.

"Just bet on this." Xiang Yang said: "We will wait until the two town-level cities are 300 kilometers away, then follow them out, and then turn on the anti-radar detection concealer after we leave the trading area."

The anti-radar detection concealer is a device obtained from Cheetah City. It can resist radar detection in a city and prevent it from being detected by radar.

The confrontation distance is one-fifth of the radar detection range of the target city, or all other cities.

The target city is just an identification term, because other cities are their target cities.

None of them have used this device before, because it is not used, and it is not a special situation. If someone is discovered using this device, it will inevitably arouse suspicion and suspicion, and the outcome is likely to lead to war.

It's also a waste of energy.

If it were at the Mohe Trading Ground, some cities would probably guess that it was Cheetah City that they killed.

Therefore, it is not usually used.

Now it was just right, allowing them to disappear for a long distance from the radar of the city they were tracking and Iron King City.

"If Iron King City is only at the county level, their radio detection range is only 300 kilometers, and they will not find us until they are within 60 kilometers."

"The radio detection range of town-level cities is only two hundred kilometers, and it will not be discovered until it is close to forty kilometers."

"If you encounter a county-level city, you have to be close to a hundred kilometers before you are discovered. For safety reasons, we will keep a distance of two hundred kilometers and follow you."

Xiang Yang said.

So, they immediately changed their travel plans. When Black Cat City was three hundred kilometers away from them, they started to set off, quietly leaving the Pine Forest Trading Ground and heading towards the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground.

A few hours later, another town-level city departed from the direction to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground and headed towards a large forest. They were not going to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground, but to the forest.

"The two cities are separated, which one is it now?"

Many people in the control room of Shenlong City also felt very sudden. They had always thought that the two cities were the same destination.

"Black Cat City, they are going to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground. I think Iron King City has a greater chance of staying there." Xiang Yang said directly without even thinking about it.

Because Black Cat City is his real tracking target.

"Then follow Black Cat City."

In other people's eyes, the probability of following any city is almost the same. They are all small probabilities, and they are all based on luck. Naturally, no one thinks there is anything wrong with it.

They continued to follow Black Cat City from a very long distance using radar.

………………

The coastal area more than 4,000 kilometers away from the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground is a huge swamp.

Although the creatures in the swamp are not too powerful, the wasteland itself is a special geographical environment. The swamp here is very deep, so deep that no one can detect the specific depth. It is estimated that county-level cities will sink into it.

Therefore, it is difficult to pass through both land and sea cities.

Close to the swamp and facing the plateau is a low forest, called a grove, which stretches for more than a thousand kilometers and is extremely lush inside.

Of course, given the size of the wasteland, most of the so-called low woods are still twenty to thirty meters high, or even more than that.

The dwarf forest continues towards the plateau, and there are many low mountains running roughly north to south, called the Longitudinal Mountains, with lengths and widths of thousands of meters.

From a high altitude, the mountains look like a square. The trees on the periphery of the mountains are connected to the groves, but the dividing line is still very clear, just placed next to the groves.

Although almost all the mountains in the mountains run north-south, there are no canyons between the mountains for cities to pass through.

Because the north-south mountain range is not flat, but crooked, running north-south in the general direction, there are many broken lines within a short distance, sloping, and intersecting with each other.

There are no long-distance continuous canyons at all. They are mostly dead-end canyons, mountain cols, valleys surrounded by mountains on three or four sides, etc.

Therefore, the grove is the only way to go from the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground to the Pine Forest Trading Ground. Almost all cities pass through it, and a dozen huge urban tracks have been plowed out of it.

It is like an artificial corridor cut out of a garden, straight, regular, and extremely spectacular.

Because there are cities passing by all year round, no trees, flowers or grass can grow on each track that is at least 350 meters long.

There are still some peaks several kilometers high throughout the interior of the mountain range, but not many on the outside.

In the area near the bushes, except for a few main peaks that are over 500 meters tall, most of the other peaks are only tens to 300 meters tall, and many are not as high as some cities.

At this moment, more than ten kilometers away from the northern entrance of the grove, near the top of the main peak of over 500 meters that is closest to the forest, three heavily armed men were staying among the rocks.

One of them stood on a rock, using a telescope to search near the northern entrance to the woods.

One person carries a personal radio on his back and sits leisurely on the rock to rest.

The last person served as a security guard. He was holding a rifle and standing on a rock, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly.

"The target has appeared. It is a town-level city. They are coming from the direction of the Pine Forest Trading Ground. They are expected to enter the bushes in about twenty minutes. They are preparing to return to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground. Please notify the contact station."

said the man with the telescope.

"So fast?" The person carrying the radio picked up the microphone and started calling: "The dire wolf calls Rhino Peak, the dire wolf calls Rhino Peak, and the antelope appears."

"Rhinoceros Peak received."

On the top of a mountain more than 300 meters high, more than ten kilometers away, there were two people. One of them was carrying a radio on his back, and the other was on guard with a rifle.

The person carrying the radio immediately called down the valley.

There was a small lake in the valley, and there was a transport truck parked on the shore. It also had a radio inside. When it heard the call, it started heading south along the small stream.

Connecting this valley is a crooked canyon. For a city, it is very narrow, but for humans, it is relatively wide.

There is really no place for cities to pass through the interior of the mountain range, but small vehicles have no problem and can pass between the twisty and irregular canyons and mountainside.

This small individual radio is a common device on the battlefield in the world of Terra, and is used by a combat force for short-distance communication.

Of course, the signal is easily interfered by mountains and the like.

Being on high ground can effectively prevent interference. These three groups of people used the mountain peaks to carry out relays, thus notifying the people in the transport vehicles parked inside the mountains.

The transport vehicle moved as fast as possible over the bumpy valley, and after about ten hours, it entered a huge valley.

This valley is surrounded by mountains. The lowest part is more than 500 meters high. There are only two narrow mountain roads that are at most 20 meters wide and can be accessed.

In the woods inside the valley, there is a city with a height of more than 60 meters, and the transmitting tower is only a hundred meters high. It is somewhat circular in shape, but the long diameter still exceeds the horizontal diameter, so it is still an oval city.

As soon as the transport truck entered the valley, the city's gates opened.

On the lintel and beam of the city gate are clearly engraved: Iron King City.

………………

Inside Iron King City.

There were many wooden poles erected on the edge of the empty city square. A person's hands and feet were tied to two wooden poles in a large shape.

A thin but strong young man in his twenties took a whip and kept hitting the man.

Youth is an iron mountain.

At this time, news came from the internal communication channel that the outgoing investigators had returned, and Tieshan handed the whip to a soldier beside him.

"You continue and make up the remaining times."

Tieshan clapped his hands, as if he wanted to clean his dirty hands, and said to the person next to him expressionlessly.

"Yes, City Lord." The soldier nodded and replied. After Tieshan left, he said to the man tied to the wooden pole: "Look, Zheng Shigang, if you want to blame, you have to blame yourself."

"If you don't want to hang out with us, you can stay in the industrial area and do a small job. Now if you commit such a thing, don't blame our city lord for being cruel."

"However, in a little while, your pain will be relieved, because the city lord will kill you, and now you can only endure it."

After saying that, a whip was whipped.

The tied man endured the pain but remained silent.

He was from the county-level city that was defeated by the Iron King City near the Shahu Trading Ground. The warrior captain joined the Iron King City after being captured along with many others.

However, when Iron King City approached the Shahu Trading Ground for reconnaissance, Zheng Shigang tried to escape and returned to the Shahu Trading Ground.

Of course he was captured.

Tieshan was not a kind man, nor was he an aborigine. He did not exile Zheng Shigang in the wild, nor did he kill him directly, but tied him here.

According to Tieshan's regulations, he must be tied up for at least three months, whipped with a dozen whips every other week, and then treated. Regardless of whether the wound is healed or not, the whipping will continue next week as a warning to others.

Finally, he will be executed in front of all the city residents to serve as a warning to others.

If the city hadn't been closed, according to Tieshan's character, he would have even tied the body to the city square for public display.

Some of the indigenous warriors who followed him couldn't understand, but they didn't stop him.

Tieshan renovated his city owner's suite and designed a corner of the living room into a bar area. He stayed in the renovated bar where he lived and had already met the person who responded to the letter.

"A town-level city? It just so happens that it's time for us to capture a city as a supply."

Tieshan held a small glass of red wine, drank it down in a gulp, and said: "When they come within a straight line of distance from here, we will launch an attack again, and let the front-line investigators go over and keep an eye on them first, and report back in time."

"Yes, City Lord." The person who came to report the news turned around and went out.

The straight-line distance from here to the bushes is closer than where they came from the previous reconnaissance place. Only by launching a surprise attack can they achieve the fastest approach speed. This is also their usual practice.

"Made, it's still easier to attack the town level." Tieshan muttered: "But it's not as good as defeating the county-level city."

Over at the Shahu Trading Ground, they originally only wanted to plunder a town-level or village-level city, as long as they had appeared there before.

In fact, I didn't want to rob the county-level city.

But they happened to encounter damage to the county-level city, so they took the opportunity to launch an attack.

Xiang Yang and the others' guess was correct. Tieshan regarded the Shahu Trading Ground area as two plundering areas that complemented the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground area, jumping back and forth and blocking each other.

But there is one thing that Xiang Yang and the others did not guess, that is, Tieshan did not attach great importance to the Shahu Trading Ground and only used it as a cover area.

Because the desert area over there is so vast that it's not conducive to hiding.

Fresh water supply is also difficult.

There are only a few mountains where they can hide and replenish fresh water, especially water sources. It would be too easy to be found there.

But here it is different, the geography is very suitable for their activities.

There are both plains and various small hills and forests. Near the plateau, there are even very tall and complex mountains, and they are all intertwined with each other.

The water source is even more abundant.

Iron King City is very familiar with this place, they have been working there for a long time.

The place where Iron King City is now is blocked by cliffs on all sides. Although their radar cannot detect the outside, at the same time, the cities outside cannot detect them.

Even for cities in the sky, you need to get close or fly very high in the sky to find them.

There are not many cities in the sky, and after entering the county level, there are even fewer that can threaten them.

They hide here and are usually safe.

But on the other hand, it is very easy for them to get out. They can suddenly appear within close range of the target city, which can be said to be a super useful hiding place.

There are many hiding places like this in Iron King City, some have been exposed and abandoned, but many more have not yet been discovered.

Therefore, this is their main battlefield, which is many times better than the Shahu Trading Ground.

But because of the plateau barrier, the Shahu Trading Ground is also a very good strategic place.

If they had not been surrounded by a large number of cities, they would have been afraid that their hiding places would be discovered too much, so they would have to cross the plateau to hide, and they would not be able to discover the benefits of the Shahu area.
