Chapter nine hundred and seventy-ninth, the misguided Zhu Qi (plus 23)
After Wang Peng led the owl army to evacuate, only the 30,000 orc army was left in the entire Hekou City.
When Ning Yuan learned that most of the orc warriors inside were indigenous orcs, he immediately gave up his plan to attack Hekou City and chose to siege instead.
After ordering people to build fortifications on the road leading to Pingbian and Maguan in Hekou County, Ning Yuan led 40,000 ape-man soldiers to siege Hekou City, while the other condor troops disappeared under the cover of night.
After controlling other orcs in Hekou County, Ning Yuan would lead a group of orcs from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to call on the city wall every day.
"Brothers of the orcs in the city, I am Hu Gang of the Tiger Man. My hometown is in Lincang. My tribe and I have been joining the Condor Empire for more than 20 years.
In the past twenty years, our tiger human race has become the backbone of the Condor Heroes Empire, and our lives are getting better and better day by day.
Only the Condor Empire can truly tolerate all our orcs, and only in the Condor Empire we will not be discriminated against.
I believe you also know how miserable the brothers and sisters of the fox, rat, rabbit, and these orcs live here.
If you didn’t have the strength and value of exploitation, your fate would probably be the same as theirs.
And in our Condor Heroes Empire, all the brothers and sisters of the Orcs are equal, and no one dares to bully them.
Now your relatives outside the city have been protected by our Condor Empire's army, and no one can bully them again.
If you still want to reunite with your loved ones, then quickly abandon the darkness and turn to the light!
Believe me, only by joining the Condor Heroes Empire is the wisest choice for our orcs.”
"Brothers of the orcs in the city, I am from the Apes."
Ningyuan's real purpose is to capture Hekou County and protect the security of the Yuanjiang River Basin. He is not very interested in other Yunnan regions in northeastern Yuanjiang.
So he was not in a hurry to attack Hekou City. Every day, he would send some orc lobbyists who brought back the Eagle Empire from Lincang to shout at the enemies in the city.
No matter what the aboriginal orcs in the city reacted, Ning Yuan didn't care at all, because he had time and enemies to slowly consume it.
Although Ning Yuan is fully responsible for the second phase of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, Ning Yuan and Bai Ze have formulated a detailed combat plan, and this will be a process of boiling frogs in warm water, so Ning Yuan does not need to be directed by himself.
After capturing Hekou County, as long as there is no accident, the various Condor Heroes participating in the war only need to implement the original plan. So Ningyuan chose to stay in Hekou County as a beacon to attract the enemy's attention to himself.
The sudden invasion of Hekou County by the Condor Hekou Army suddenly alarmed the entire Huaxia Guild Alliance.
When Zhu Qi, who was in Kunming, learned that the Condor Heroes had captured the entire Hekou County, he was shocked and sweated.
Nowadays, the entire Flying Corps of the China Guild Alliance are arranged in Dali and Guiyang areas. Although Kunming where he is stationed has many land troops, it lacks air power.
Without enough air force, it means they cannot resist the Condor Heroes Army that attacked Yunnan from Vietnam, because there were 50,000 silver Pegasus Knights in the formation of that Condor Heroes.
Before, Zhu Qi couldn't understand why the two Condor Air Forces located in Zunyi and Lijiang suddenly pressed over. When he learned about the loss of Hekou County, he immediately learned about the intention of the Condor Air Force.
The Eagle Army wanted to hold their flying corps and then use the extra Silver Pegasus Knights to open up a second battlefield in the south.
The Silver Pegasus Knights are the ace flying legion of the Condor Empire. As the mortal enemy of the Condor Empire, Zhu Qi, Ye Ziqing and others have always been paying attention to the every move of this ace flying legion.
Although they didn't know how many silver Pegasus knights there were in the Condor Empire, they could still estimate the approximate number.
Logically speaking, after deducting the Silver Pegasus Knights in Lijiang and Zunyi, there should not be so many Silver Pegasus Knights left in the Condor Empire.
So there was only one result, that is, this Silver Pegasus Knights were withdrawn from the Uttar Pradesh region of Yindu.
Because the Condor Empire has always stationed a Silver Pegasus Knights of 50,000 people there.
After guessing the origin of this extra Silver Pegasus Knights, Zhu Qi couldn't help but curse: "This damn Yindu A San actually sent the Condor Heroes to the Silver Pegasus Knights back. You deserve to be destroyed in the future."
After venting, Zhu Qi immediately fell into deep thought and wondered where the Condor Heroes would launch an attack next.
He must first penetrate the next action target of the Condor Heroes and then make targeted arrangements, otherwise he will only be led by the Condor Heroes with super mobile capabilities.
After asking his subordinates to carry them up to the large map of Yunnan, Zhu Qi began to carefully look at every place in southern Yunnan.
After the Condor Army occupied Hekou County, they had two options next.
The first choice is to go north along the Nanxi River Valley, attack Pingbian County, Mengzi, and Yuxi, and then finally approach Kunming, cut off the connection between Dali and Kunming, and form a siege against Dali from the north and east.
The second option is to march eastward towards Maguan, capture the entire Wenshan area, and then expand step by step, expanding northward little by little, and finally the Bingfeng pointed directly to Kunming.
No matter which plan the Condor Army chooses, Kunming should be their ultimate goal.
As long as Kunming can be taken down, it will not only be able to isolate Dali, but also cut off the ties between Guizhou and Yunnan, thereby gradually annexing the entire Yunnan region bit by bit.
When Zhu Qi thought of the series of consequences after Kunming was conquered by the Condor Heroes, he couldn't help but feel shocked and sweated.
Because the distance is relatively long, it is probably too late to send troops to support the Mengzi and Wenshan areas, so Zhu Qi's eyes kept observing repeatedly on the only way to Kunming, Yuxi and Shilin.
Now that he has sent all the conversion scrolls of the owl tribe in his hand to use, he can only gather a owl legion of 200,000 people. With the 80,000 people brought out by Wang Peng, there are only 280,000 people.
Facing the Silver Pegasus Knights of 50,000 people, these 280,000 owl soldiers were fine in one place, but they were definitely not enough to station two places separately. Therefore, Zhu Qi must understand the real march route of the Condor Heroes and then send heavy troops to defend.
Considering that Ning Yuan likes to be on the brink of danger, and the Condor Heroes dispatched this time the Silver Pegasus Knights and the Apes Legion.
These are two fast reaction corpses that can move rapidly on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. These two corpses are very good at long-distance raids. Zhu Qi finally decided to place the only flying corps in the Yuxi area.
However, just in case, he transferred two orc legions to Shilin and Yiliang for defense.
Once the Condor Heroes choose to take the route of the Stone Forest, the Owls Legion stationed in Yuxi can quickly fly to Yiliang for defense.
As for the Orc Legion stationed in the Stone Forest, their only task was to delay the progress of the Condor Heroes and buy time for the Owls Legion to Yiliang.
The Condor Army that invaded the mouth of the river clearly had only more than 100,000 people, but Zhu Qi had to mobilize an army of millions to defend, which made him feel the deep helplessness as a defender.
On the battlefield, the initiative is always in the hands of the offensive party. As the party that actively launches the offensive party, the offensive party can choose to fight anywhere, while the defender can always passively defend.
The Ten Thousand Beast Alliance clearly has an army of millions of orcs, but because the air force is inferior to the Condor Air Force, they can only carry out passive defense without air supremacy.
Although Zhu Qi felt very frustrated about this situation, he had no choice but to do anything. Who told them not to defeat the Condor Heroes Army? So he had to choose to endure it.
Just as Zhu Qi was nervously dispatching troops, the Silver Pegasus Knights of the Condor Heroes, which was supposed to be at the mouth of the river, suddenly appeared on the east side of Yuanyang.
At the same time, countless magic transport ships filled with soldiers and various supplies were surfacing along the Yuanjiang River under the cover of a condor fleet.
The entire Yuanjiang River is full of magic transport ships connected to the head and tail, so dark that they can't see at a glance.
