Chapter 24: Change strategy

　　 Jacob Ancient River.
　　 This is the most convenient way to get in and out of the Andes Mountains.
According to historical records, in the era of the Andes Empire, this was a hundreds-meter-wide river that ran through the Andes Mountains from east to west. It originated in the Andes Basin, the deepest part of the Andes Mountains, which is now the Andes Inland Lake. Then it flows all the way through the Manyu Army, most of the plains of Asia Minor, and finally into the Zambian Inland Sea, where thousands of sails once shuttled, and the Andes Empire controlled the western territory of Novoda by this waterway.
　　 With the earth-shattering explosion when the end of the Andes Empire came, the mouth of the upper reaches of the Jacob River was blocked by the collapsed mountain roads, which caused a huge change in the territory of the entire Ashan continent.
　　 In just a few decades after the big explosion, the Andes Basin, where the capital of the Andes Empire was located, turned into a huge inland lake.
　　 The Jacob River, once one of the main arteries of Asaan, has become an inconspicuous stream.
　　 Under the irrigation of the Jacob River, the Manyu Army leader, who was once the four major grain-producing areas along with the Asia Minor Plain, the Jiangnan Plain and the Huayu Plateau, has become a barren land full of dust.
　　 The area of ​​the Zambian inland sea has shrunk by half compared to the peak period. It is said that it is still shrinking. In three hundred years, the once inland sea will become a saltwater lake.
　　 The water source originally transported by the Jacob River was diverted southward, forming the current Desperate Nu River, rushing all the way into the former Jiangnan Plain, which is now the Desperate Swamp.
　　 Bastille was built in the narrowest place where the Jacob River once exited the mountain.
　　The most densely populated place of Andes Mountain is naturally the Jacobian Ancient River. One third of the few cultivated land in the Andes Mountains is distributed on this ancient river and its surroundings.
The most severely affected by the Bastille were the mountain people around this ancient river. After their forefoot damage was over, the mountain people in the mountains were attracted by the good farmland and moved over, and then they came in to harm, and then there were mountains. Even if the people moved here, even if they knew it was dangerous, those mountain people still couldn't stand the temptation to eat a full meal. This became a vicious circle.
　　 Bolton led a large group of Bastille into the mountain. Of course, he had to walk the ancient Jacob River channel, and he could only use the ancient Jacob River channel. Walking the mountain beam was only the choice of a small group of troops.
Bolton’s marching speed is not slow, and definitely not fast. He starts walking on the hill every day and stops at sunset. He can walk fifty to sixty miles a day for three consecutive days, leaving the Bastille but nothing One hundred and forty-five miles, although the roads were not smooth, for the Bastille Mountain Corps, it was just a day's rapid march.
The bull Eriksson was full of doubts, saying that saving people is like fighting a fire. The soldiers are very fast. His master is also a person who knows the soldiers. He doesn't even know such simple questions. Just rely on the current speed and wait for the past. , I’m afraid that those who are waiting for rescue have already turned into a pile of bones, and they are now wandering around in the Andes Mountains. It is also extremely dangerous. Who knows if there are any Andean people lurking in the surrounding forests, although the marksman’s post The detectives have already been scattered, but compared with the huge mountains and forests, the number of sharpshooters is still thinner. It is difficult to find those mountain hunters who are proficient in wild camouflage. They came a few times, and they couldn't be defended at all. Based on their sins over the years, there is no shortage of such people in the Andes Mountains.
After Erickson talked to Old Bolton once, the other party still went his own way. He filled all the doubts into his stomach, and just arranged the team's defensive station work faithfully and dutifully. The temporary camp at night was also as perfect as possible. In order to prevent all kinds of night attacks, it is not dripping, but it is the best under current conditions. It can be relied on by old Bolton for decades. In addition to loyalty and personal force, he is also a real talent in commanding troops. Practical ones, even if they didn't exist before, they have already formed their own model for decades.
However, the quietness along the way makes people panic. Neither the mountain people who took revenge on Lengzi, the village of the Andes mountain people that I met was also destroyed long ago. There is no living person in sight, just like they are in the Andes Mountains. , There was no conversation that said, not only Old Bolton and the others, but even the soldiers below felt that the atmosphere was a bit wrong, and they became restless and suspicious.
The Bull Eriksson bit his scalp and said: "City Lord, it is not a way to continue like this. The soldier's heart is too tight, a little bit of trouble, before we start fighting, our formation will collapse first, I am most worried. Yes, we have been targeted."
"Relax, relax." Old Bolton said with a smile, "You are scaring yourself. It's normal to have guerrillas around us staring at us, but it's a bit exaggerated to say that we are being stared at. They are only capable of the old vulture and the stupid bear. One has already broken his spine, and the other is a foolish guy with no brains. If they are smart, they will lie down in the den, if they really dare to come out. , It just cleaned up easily."
Humans are very fickle creatures. Especially the environmental impact cannot be ignored. Before sending troops, Old Bolton was nervous and suspicious. He always felt that there were 100,000 soldiers hidden in the mountains in front. After the miserable situation in the Andes Mountain Village, the pride came to life. The current Andes Mountain People are not much different from the Andes Mountain People 30 years ago. They are still a group of people whose backbones have been interrupted. Sha, he has been giving him blood for thirty years. Even if he is a giant, his vitality is greatly injured. The most prosperous Jacobian River in the Andes Mountains is of this virtue, and it can be raised in other poor mountains and bad waters. how many people? If the other party really has so many people, how can one's life be so peaceful?
Years of pampering and pampering have made me become the same virtues as those old nobles. I am a little timid. It seems that we should change our strategy appropriately. In the future, there will be more sweeps and sweeps if there is nothing to do. Do not give these mountain people any chance to stand up. To be your own supply for another 30 years, it is best to find a chance to pull out the two nails of Clayton and McGee, then sit back and relax.
Seeing that his general still looked worried, Old Bolton decided to tell him thoroughly: "We are not really going to save people this time when we come out, but to deal with official affairs, and don't leave any handle to the old fox in the capital. If we hold on for another day or two, we will turn around and return to the city. The Andes Mountains are so big and the messenger has unfortunately been infected and passed away. It is normal that we cannot find anyone."
"That's it." The Bull Eriksson suddenly realized that all the questions in his heart were no longer doubts. He couldn't help but sigh secretly. Even if he watched this thing for 30 years, he couldn't understand it. No wonder he came out to fight. Life, the other party is the city lord, at best, he is doing the life of a general.
Some things can’t be said, especially when another big man is involved. This is the political wisdom bull Eriksson still has. He kept silent to the soldiers below, but the arrangement perfectly carried out the old Bolton’s plan. Every day The camp was later, the camp was earlier, and the marching speed was slower. Originally, they could march at least fifty or sixty miles a day, but now there are thirty miles to the sky. Everything is to spend time, but they dare not relax in defense. After all, they Being in a perilous mountain, neglecting one's duty is joking with one's own life.

"Aren’t we ambushing old Bolton? Why is it now a surprise attack on the Bastille?" Skullcrusher McGee felt that his brains, which were already insufficient, were even more inadequate. The battle plan they sat together to discuss a few days ago was obviously used The hunting team used as a decoy to ambush the rescued Bastille legion, kill him in a river of blood, and then drove the trailing soldiers, broke the Bastille in one fell swoop, and uprooted the cancer that had harmed the people of Andes for 30 years.
　　 But under the leadership of Sean, they went around in circles, avoiding the Bastille Legion and appeared directly outside the city of Bastille.
　　 As for Clayton and McGee did not notice in advance, it is purely normal.
The terrain of the Andes Mountains is notoriously complicated. In Shaun’s words, this is a typical mountain range formed by the collision of two continental plates. Mountains of various directions from east to west, north to south, south to north, and to the north are criss-crossed. It is difficult to see the whole picture in the mountains. It is normal for the old hunters to get lost. Most Andis mountain people recognize their way not by their own memory and directionality, but by the hunting dog.
This is also what made McGee and Clayton secretly surprised. The route that Sean took them before was quite complicated. The mountain beams alone had climbed seven or eight, not to mention the interspersed mountains and forests. There are no roads in many places. Even if there are hounds, they are not sure to return according to the same route. How did the other party identify the direction and bring them to the bottom of Bastille accurately?
　　 Of course, Sean wouldn’t tell them there is another thing called a compass in this world~EbookFREE.me~ Regardless of how complicated the terrain of the mountains is, just follow the exact direction.
According to Sean’s observations, in this world where the sky is round, the doctrine that God created the world occupies a dominant position, because there is no intelligent Han civilization and the four great inventions that have greatly promoted the progress of world civilization have not appeared in this world. The direction of identification in this world is mainly based on astrology and landmark buildings. The main recording tools are all kinds of animal skins, stone carvings, wood carvings, and mud carvings. Naturally, the transcription method is purely hand-written, so learning words in this world is one thing. A very extravagant thing.
Shaun teaches writing to those orphaned children through the sand table. Before he has certain self-protection ability, he is not going to release the wisdom of previous lives. These things are different from medical skills. They can be seen in the eyes of people of insight. Involving huge interests, letting it out rashly will not only bring you no benefit, but will also cause you to kill yourself. Even so, some people are greedy and want to attack him, but the level is not high. En turned to take care of it.
　　 I can't be too cautious about my own life.
When he first arrived, Sean was not without enthusiasm, thinking that he had already embarked on the path of the protagonist from time to time, whether he could try to change the world, but the cruel reality was solid and gave him a head, an ordinary wind chill. The cold almost made him die in the cradle. Since then, working hard and developing a good life and rest habits have become his first priority. In this world where illness is completely dependent on resistance, a small illness can kill people. , The safest way is not to get sick.
　　 If you want to change the world, you must live to adulthood.
