Chapter 627 The Weakness of Demons
Against the snow falling all over the sky and the howling cold wind, a long team drove out of the barracks.
Outside the barracks, there are many civilians from Black Rock City, guarding both sides of the gate of the barracks; regardless of the severe cold weather, they see off the marching army.
Everyone in the long line has a full set of warm military uniforms from the inside to the outside.
There are many warm underwear, thick coats, and brand-new windproof coats; in addition, antifreeze hats, gloves and so on are added, and the whole person is wrapped like a rice dumpling.
There is no way, who called these demons from outside the domain, when they appeared so inopportune.
The current weather in the Luolei Mountains is the coldest time of the year; in the depths of the northern forests, the terrible outdoor temperature has dropped below minus sixty degrees.
In this terrible weather, if you don't do a good job of keeping warm, you will be in big trouble.
Even with the strong physical fitness of the natives of the primitive era, if the toes are exposed for too long, they will be completely frozen.
This kind of thing has happened too many times among those inexperienced refugees in the past two years...
No one expected that in the face of the sudden attack of foreign monsters, the first thing Master Niu used was the ground army.
The fifth field division was the first to be dispatched. It had been established for more than half a year, and there were no new and tender troops.
The fifth field division, as the vanguard of the entire army, needs to be the first to set off; when they are advancing all the way to the depths of the north.
The big trees that got in the way needed to be cut down, and the snow pits that were stuck in people had to be filled; in short, they needed to open up a temporary road that could accommodate two large snow sledges and move forward at the same time.
After all, fighting in such a cruel environment, the entire combat army needs a huge amount of supplies.
It is estimated that it is such things as wood and fire, which do not need to be carried; other food, weapons and equipment will be a huge astonishing number.
If it were normal, the tasks faced by the Fifth Division would be quite easy; but in such a world of ice and snow, the same thing would cost several times, or even more effort!
It was not until the fourth day after the departure of the Fifth Division that the two units of the Second Division and the Third Division set off.
The troops of the three regular divisions, together with the 30,000 militia troops urgently mobilized around Black Rock City, were used to transport various supplies and materials.
A total of more than 60,000 troops is all the ground troops that Master Niu used for this war.
As for the remaining first and fourth divisions, these two field divisions were reserved by Master Niu, who dared not use them indiscriminately.
To be honest, as for how long this war with foreign monsters will last, even His Majesty the Emperor Niu can't predict how long it will last.
Therefore, in a sense, these two troops were specially prepared for the crusade army that arrived two months later.
Otherwise, if the battle here does not go well, it is impossible to mobilize a large number of militiamen as the main force to face the crusade army of the same size and strength!
"What the hell! Why are you so mediocre? The two families coincidentally activated at the same time." This is the biggest resentment in Master Niu's heart during this period...
In addition, as the most important air force of Master Niu, although it entered the highest level of combat readiness in the first time, it did not immediately dispatch.
Only Ruoji took his horse Qingluan, who left Black Rock City immediately, and flew to the depths of the northern mountains.
The weak chicken's mission is quite important. It first contacted King Dapeng, hoping to get support from the monster forces in the mountains and forests in the next battle.
Even limited support is great!
Among other things, at least King Dapeng must tell the giant Tyrannosaurus rex that it must not be impulsive or attack Master Niu's combat troops.
Otherwise, if the huge Tyrannosaurus rex faced the army on the march or in the camp, the last time it charged wildly, the result would definitely be disastrous.
*****
Five days later, Master Niu appeared outside the sealed place.
This guy has established a hidden observation point on a towering mountain that is more than fifty miles away from the edge of the sealed land.
Under the cover of the dense tree shade above his head, Master Niu set up a high-power military telescope and looked towards the sealed place.
During this process, a large number of monsters wearing thick animal skins were moving around in the forest not far from Master Niu.
They either cut down a large number of trees and dragged them back to the sealed land one by one; countless huge fires had already been raised there, and a large group of demons crowded in front of a fire to keep warm.
Or, after a group of powerful wild beasts and fierce beasts were beheaded and killed by the strongest of the monsters.
The low-level monsters accompanying them started to deal with the prey on the spot, and the pure white snow in the forest suddenly became filthy.
Afterwards, the large number of cleaned prey had just been transported back to the sealed land; they were immediately put on the fire by the monsters waiting there, and the barbecue began.
It was just roasted for a while, so that the thick bloodshot meat was eaten by a group of monsters.
Looking at the gobbling posture, it seems that these monsters have not eaten such fat meat for a long time...
Master Niu has been lying in this cold hiding place, observing continuously throughout the day.
Although in such an environment, being frozen is really terrible, but the information obtained is completely enough to return the ticket.
According to Master Niu's observation, the army of monsters from outside the territory has already assembled no less than a million people in the sealed place.
But so far, their farthest range of activities is only about a hundred miles away from the edge of the sealed land; the fundamental reason is that these demons are afraid of the cold.
It's understandable when you think about it, there must be all kinds of high temperatures in the underground world.
And these monsters are so immortal that they appeared in the coldest time of winter, and the temperature difference between the two might be over 100 degrees.
In this way, I am afraid that even the mighty monsters will not be able to bear it...
However, Master Niu also knew that such a time would not last too long; first, after the monsters gradually got used to it, their ability to resist freezing would be greatly enhanced.
Second, Mr. Niu can see through the telescope that a large number of animal skins are continuously being transported out of the passage. After the monsters on the ground put on the animal skins one by one, their ability to resist freezing has increased significantly.
Maybe in another ten days, these millions of monsters will be able to obtain enough animal skins to keep out the cold; at that time, it is estimated that they will start to sweep the Luolei Mountain Range.
However, after Master Niu has learned of their fatal weakness, they may never have another chance!
