"Rumble..."

Thirty thousand Shuzhou troops have disappeared at the end of the official road, only the earth is still shaking slightly.

Standing on the horse and looking at the billowing smoke and dust in the distance, the heroic feeling in Wei Changtian's heart gradually faded away, and after a while he shook his head slightly.

Although I sincerely hope that Liang Zhen can make a triumphant return, the final decision on whether he can make a "triumph" does not actually lie with Liang Zhen.

After all, a Shuzhou general soldier would definitely not be able to lead a large-scale national war like this.

Above the general army, there are four generals: Zhendong, Zhenxi, Zhennan, and Zhenbei. Above them are the hussar generals and the Zhenguo generals.

Huh? By the way, is it possible for Ning Yongnian to send Han Zhao as the commander-in-chief?

It would be great if that were the case...

"Da da da~ da da da~"

While I was thinking wildly, a sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded behind me.

Wei Changtian retracted his gaze and turned his head to look, and then he saw Chu Xianping lapping his horse and galloping towards this side.

"Master!"

"Found it!"

...

Half an hour later, Yanyun Mountain.

Standing in front of the large muddy pit, Wei Changtian frowned.

"sure?"

"Sure."

Chu Xianping beside him replied in a deep voice: "That Yunlian did come to Yanyun Mountain six days ago."

"Six days ago...that was the second day after she arrived in Shuzhou City?"

"Um."

Chu Xianping nodded: "A hunter once saw her entering the mountain alone. The Masonic brothers have searched the mountain, but they did not find anyone. They only found this deep pit."

"These four corpses are scattered in the pit, and there is nothing on them that can be used to identify them."

"..."

While speaking, Chu Xianping couldn't help but glance at the four mostly decomposed corpses placed aside.

Although he didn't know the identities of these four people, Wei Changtian knew it very well——

Buried here are the five second-grade masters belonging to Kuilong who had come to help Xiao Feng!

But...why are there only four corpses now?

Judging from the tattered clothes, the missing body should be that of Wu Tianqing.

If combined with the information previously provided by the head of the Wantong Escort Agency...

So Yun Lian did all this?

Then why did she take away Wu Tianqing's body?

Could it be that......

Wu Tianqing turned out to be the person Yunlian came to Shuzhou to find? He was Yunlian's husband?!

Wei Changtian stood there with his arms crossed, feeling speechless in his heart.

What a coincidence! What a coincidence?!

But if this is not the case, is there any more reasonable explanation?

"Son..."

Beside him, Chu Xianping observed the change in Wei Changtian's expression and couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?"

"nothing......"

Wei Changtian shook his head, pondered for a moment and then ordered: "Rebury these four corpses."

"Assign more brothers to guard my home and the General Military Mansion. Yunlian is very likely to appear nearby."

"Also, go to the Yamen Prison to find a death row prisoner and take him to Tianluo Sect first. I will go there later."

"..."

"yes."

Chu Xianping didn't understand the origin of these three orders, but he didn't ask any more questions, just agreed and went to make arrangements.

Wei Changtian rubbed his forehead, then looked at the sky through the gaps in the leaves.

It's noon now, when the sun should be at its best.

But for some reason in the past few days, the weather has been gloomy, but there has never been a heavy rain.

Thick clouds covered the sky, and when a few rays of golden light cut through the dark clouds, they were as sharp as a sharp weapon, dark and cold.

Coupled with the four skeletons next to it...

Wei Changtian suddenly remembered two sentences from Comrade Du Fu's "War Chariots" in his previous life -

Don’t you see, Qinghai Tou has no one to collect the bones from ancient times.

The new ghosts are annoyed and the old ghosts are crying, and the sky is dark and rainy, with a wet chirping sound.

...

...

Yuanzhou, Yuanzhou City.

"boom!!!"

"Kill!"

"Brothers! Kill me! The first one to enter the city will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!!"

"Today we will let Daning and this bunch of losers show who is the real man!"

"For Dafeng! For the emperor! For the general!"

“Take back Wonju!!!”

"Dong dong dong!"

"Dong dong dong!"

"..."

An hour ago, when the Shuzhou Army was rushing towards Yuanzhou with high spirits, the Dafeng Army, which had been stationed on the border between the two countries for several days, finally crossed the Yuanzhou boundary monument for the first time, with 100,000 elites as the vanguard, and faced

Yuanzhou City, which stood on the border, launched a fierce attack.

The drums have been beating for an hour, and the battle has only been going on for an hour.

For the Yuanzhou Army stationed there, all this did not happen suddenly. With all the preparations made, it was roughly estimated that they could hold the position for at least three days.

The battlefield situation is changing rapidly, and "three days" is just an expectation.

Now the reinforcements from Daning Prefecture are rushing to Yuanzhou, and Dafeng's follow-up army is also marching day and night... Whoever can reinforce the battlefield first will undoubtedly gain a huge advantage.

Of course, this kind of "strategic" event is something that generals have to consider.

For the soldiers of the two countries who are fighting on the front line of the battle, they only need and can only think about how to kill the enemy and how to save their own lives.

"Brother Bai! Be careful!!"

"clang!"

Cold light flashed, and the long blades intertwined.

With a loud shout, a man wearing black armor brandished a knife to block the fatal blow for his companion.

The latter's reaction speed was also very fast. He didn't have time to say thank you. He immediately stepped forward and approached the Daning soldiers who were attacking him. Without any explanation, he slashed his head and face with a knife.

The Daning soldier quickly raised his sword to block it, but when he saw the eyes of the man surnamed Bai, his movements stagnated for a moment.

In a battle between warriors, a slight difference can lead to a huge difference, and a moment's distraction can determine life or death.

"Crack!"

"Pfft!!"

The hundred-refined saber split the military helmet, and continued downward with incomparable power until the person under the sword was chopped into two halves alive.

This scene was undoubtedly extremely bloody. If ordinary people saw it, most of them would be so frightened that they would collapse to the ground.

But now no one would have such a reaction, no one would even look at the dead soldier.

In war, the death of ordinary soldiers never matters.

Even though these people are also sons, husbands, fathers... they are also the backbone of every family.
To be continued...
