Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

"Hiss... Is the height of Beimang Mountain three to four times that of Twin Dragon Mountain?"

Unlike Xia Hong, who was seeing it for the second time, Yuwen Dao couldn't help but express his amazement upon seeing such a magnificent Beimang Mountain for the first time.

"Zhaoyang has lived in Ping Valley for decades, but no one has ever climbed to the top of Beimang Mountain, so we're not sure exactly how high it is. It should be over four thousand meters. We're also curious about what might be up there."

Even Hou Jing doesn't know, which highlights the mystery of Beimang Mountain.

After pondering for a moment, Yuwen Dao turned to Xia Hong and said, "With Mang Mountain to the north, Twin Dragon Mountain to the east, Long Mountain to the west, and Xing River to the south, we can basically deduce that the overall terrain of Longyou is encircled by mountains on three sides—east, north, and west—and cut off by the Xing River to the south. If we can control Long Mountain, we essentially have this entire treasure land in our grasp. In the future, even if other camps have ill intentions towards Great Xia, it would be as difficult as climbing to the heavens!"

Hearing this, Xia Hong withdrew his gaze from Beimang Mountain and gave Yuwen Dao an appreciative look. His first thought upon seeing Beimang Mountain was indeed the same.

From a geographical perspective, Redwood Ridge should also belong to Longyou, but due to the barrier created by the Arrow Bamboo Forest in between, the two places are not easily accessible, which led to them being considered separate territories.

As Great Xia now deepens its control over the Arrow Bamboo Forest, the connection between the two areas is becoming increasingly tighter. It is foreseeable that in the future, the two places will undoubtedly merge completely.

For now, the waterways are inaccessible, but taking control of Long Mountain is equivalent to securing the last resource territory of Longyou, bringing almost the entire area under Great Xia's map.

By then, with Mang Mountain to the north, Xing River to the south, Long Mountain to the west, and Twin Dragon Mountain to the east, Great Xia will have four natural barriers of protection, making it the uncrowned king of Longyou. Other camps planning to attack Great Xia will have no other routes except through the slope on the Xing River North Bank, which I previously named "Xing Valley Pass."

This is an excellent place for the rear!

Obviously, Yuwen Dao also noticed this.

A glint of sharpness flashed in Hou Jing's eyes, as if he also realized it.

Xia Hong did not delve further into the subject, instead noting that they were only a few kilometers away from Ping Valley, and changed the topic to ask Hou Jing, "How many Earth-digging Realms does Zhaoyang currently have?"

Hou Jing immediately replied, "Zhaoyang has a total of five thousand seven Earth-digging Realms. After the Blood Guard Army was annihilated, only forty-seven hundred remained, but among the more than five thousand sent off last night, more than seventeen hundred were Earth-digging Realms, so now there are only just over three thousand left."

When mentioning that more than seventeen hundred Earth-digging Realms were included in the over five thousand people sent off last night, Hou Jing's pupils flickered slightly.

Xia Hong also raised an eyebrow and gave him an inquisitive look.

Hou Jing nodded and said, "Leader, rest assured, I have arranged everything."

"Good, then I won't say much more. There are only about two hours left before dawn, and time is running out. Go back directly to gather these three thousand Earth-digging Realms, put the existing armor of Zhaoyang on them, and have Hou Xing, Zhang Ying, and Kong Fan lead them to set off for White Abyss immediately after night falls tomorrow."

"Yes, sir."

Hou Jing didn't ask anything further, nodded to accept the order, and headed straight back to the Camp.

"Leader, you wouldn't be thinking..."

Yuwen Dao clearly guessed Xia Hong's next intention, and after a moment of shock, couldn't help but exclaim at him in surprise.

Are they going directly to attack Long Mountain?
