Chapter 606 - The Great Difficulties of Climbing the Mountains! Part 1

Great Mountain was just an overall term for this area.

The area was covered with thousands of mountain peaks and ridges that spread for over 10,000 miles.

It would be impossible for a human to count the number of peaks gathered in this area even in a whole lifetime.

Not to mention that after the winter, the size of the area would double again.

The mountain entrance was 400 kilometers journey in the southeast direction from the basin. There was a two-kilometer tall mountain that appeared before them.

The peak of the mountain was marked as First Mountain on the map.

This meant that it was the closest mountain to the basin and the first mountain they would encounter inside Great Mountain.

Without the powerful construction power of modern civilization, there was no chance that there would be a road for them to climb the mountain.

They did not have many options to climb over the mountains.

Their first option was a distraction tactic.

They could send a death squad that committed a serious crime to carry materials such as expansion nails and wooden boards to find a relatively safe road to construct a wooden path all the way through the mountain for them to advance.

This method was rare in ancient times.

Most of the construction that had been carried out in the past was to create better routes for troops to travel.

For example, the great military strategist Zhuge Liang used this method of traveling through mountains to ensure the safety of his armies.

The second option was to cross over the mountains.

The key point of this method was to cross "over." To be able to cross over the mountain, they would have to slowly explore the way up to the peak of the mountain.

Next, they would have to find the correct direction and descend down the mountain into the valley.

Of course, there were many drawbacks to this approach.

As the saying goes, it would be easy to ascend the mountain but challenging to descend it.

Besides the steepness of the mountain road, the large amount of physical strength consumed while ascending and descending the mountain required larger movements that were extremely dangerous.

Their third option would be to know when to retreat when faced with difficulties.

The retreat did not refer to turning around when they encountered a mountain but to walking around the mountain instead.

The shape of each mountain was not uniform, but one thing in common was that most of the mountains were round in shape.

As long as they were not afraid of the long journey, they could completely go around the periphery of the mountains and reach the other side.

In addition to these three options, there were also other weird tricks they could pull, but these were only applicable to individual advancement and would be useless for a 100-person army.

Therefore, only these three options were left for Su Mo and the team.

After considering the time factor, the third option was naturally excluded.

After all, there were 19 mountains between First Mountain and Origin Territory. It would take forever to detour around that many mountains to reach their destination.

With the number of people in the basin, it would also be impossible for them to build a plank road that would literally be sending their heads to their enemies, so Su Mo also excluded the first option.

That meant the only choice left for them was the second option.

Climb any mountains in their path, and cross any valleys that came in their way. They would keep moving forward toward Origin Camp at the fastest speed.

"The snow-covered road is making it hard to walk!"

After a half-day of traveling, they successfully arrived at First Mountain at four in the afternoon.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Su Mo could not help but curse in his heart!

They had not even started ascending any mountains, but there were already three people injured in their team of 100.

Because they were traveling too fast, these three people were tripped by obstacles on the 400-mile road that was covered by the snow and injured themselves.

Fortunately, the soft snow was able to absorb most of the impact of their fall.

Otherwise, these three people would not just be slightly injured and there would be a great reduction in the strength of the team!

"Let's set up camp and start cooking. After dinner, we will ascend the First Mountain.

"The three injured people should be in the middle of the team when we climb the mountain. We have to ensure that there aren't any more accidents even if we have to travel slower!"

Su Mo gave instructions to set up their camp and begin preparations for dinner. He also secret hinted Feng Tianming to comfort and lift the team's spirits.

The open space beside the mountain was uninhabited and no humans or foreigners would choose to build their camps in the area.

Additionally, the snow made it seem that one was traveling in the same spot and it was hard to have any sense of direction.

The sky was blue, the snow vastly spread out, and it was extremely deserted.

Su Mo walked alone.

There was a saying that a horse would die running if its eyes were fixed on the mountains. Su Mo felt like he was in the same position.

Fortunately, the road to the northeast was not too far.

Moments later, after he ventured about ten kilometers, he heard the sensor in his pocket buzzing. Su Mo's face flushed with joy, and he began to circle around to search for the location.

He dug and shoveled for a while.

Soon, a hollow snow cave appeared.
