You should know that the so-called northwest alone is almost the sum of the four towns of the southeast, southwest, Zhongzhou and the central government.

The area of ​​Shazhou alone is larger than that of the entire Southeast Governor's Office, and the population is not even greater than that of Tianning City...

With such a vast area and such a small population, it is certainly difficult for a Governor's Office to effectively defend against it.

Therefore, the northwest implemented the state pastoral system.

Every state governor who holds the military and political power in the state can be regarded as the governor of the smaller number.

Of course, with few people and barren people, the troops in the hands of these state patriarchs are very average in terms of quantity and quality. Almost all are old-fashioned troops, without new troops.

Every year, the imperial center has to allocate a large amount of materials to support these northwest prefectures and counties.

At this moment, Yin Shengzhi led his men to cross the Thousand Mountains, and the Kunyun Mountain they arrived was located in the Xizhou area.

The area of ​​this state is a bit larger than that of Shazhou and has a larger population, especially at the foot of the mountain on the other side of the Qianshan Mountains, there is snow water melting from snow mountains. The agriculture is good and the population is still dense.

But near Kunyun Mountain, it is the famous Death Desert, which can be said to be uninhabited for thousands of miles!

And at this time

"Saint Commander, you can't fly forward. What's ahead is the legendary death zone..."

Just as Yin Shengzhi was pondering, the captain of the airship came over and quietly asked Yin Shengzhi for instructions.

Yin Shengzhi nodded slightly, without having to look specifically, his huge mental power passed through the airship and could already see dark clouds rolling, lightning and thunder hundreds of miles ahead.

A very familiar and powerful force brewing in the air, and this feeling is extremely familiar with the sea of ​​storms and the desert of Tranches.

This is the reason for the instability of space.

"Stop, let's hike in!"

The way to win the Yin.

"yes!"

With a command, the airship stopped quickly, and then two thousand soldiers walked out of the airship.

All of these two thousand soldiers were scholars from Nanming Island Mage Academy.

The student soldiers of Nanming Island Master Academy became famous in one battle during the last expeditionary army. Not only did it cause a sensation in the world, but it also became famous.

Originally, Yin Shengzhi trained only three or four hundred scholars.

However, after the war test, Yin Shengzhi had greatly expanded the number of apprentices at Nanming Island Master Academy and the number of enrolled students in the military academy.

Naturally, the scholars have also expanded!

And now this student soldier appears here!

"Saintsman, according to ancient legend, Kunyun Mountain is a forbidden area, and we really want to go in?" Zang Haizi's face was a little solemn.

He looked into the distance, with dark clouds rolling and wind and sand making a big splash. The most important thing was that he could reach an unspeakable palpitation, as if looking over, there was something huge danger hidden there.

"Let's go!" Yin Shengzhi didn't say much, but just used his actions to show his determination.

He walked forward, and everyone had to follow.

According to ancient books, Kunyun Mountain has many storms and thunder, and strange sounds are heard from time to time, and it is suspected that there are ancient wild beasts.

However, these are some inconspicuous records, but few people know what they really are.

At least, even the Daqi Immortal Sects in various places know much about this, and they rarely go to this area.

Because when you go deep into the so-called death zone, you can't even use a little magic power. Even the true soul of the soul is almost no different from that of ordinary people.

It's like when crossing the storm sea, even a high-level mage may be killed by an ordinary sailor.

Therefore, practitioners will never come here if they have nothing to do.

Seeing a group of people going deep into the death zone, both the high wizards and the real people of the soul changed their color.

But at this moment, Yin Shengzhi said, "You stay outside and look after the way out."

I heard that I didn’t have to go in, Zang Haizi was relieved and hurriedly answered.

Yin Shengzhi smiled slightly, and had no intention of bringing Zang Haizi in.

Whether it is a real person of the Yuanshen or a high mage, there will be no soldier in this environment.

There were too many two thousand scholars, so Yin Shengzhi only brought five hundred scholars into the Black Desert of Death.

Therefore, Yin Shengzhi directly led his five hundred scholars into the death zone.

Although there are many apprentices among these scholars, they have not yet cultivated their magic power and are not worried that casting spells here will cause a chain reaction in space.

Therefore, these apprentices are much more useful than Yuanshen Zhenren or Higher Wizards!

This is also the reason why Yin Shengzhi did not bring any masters except Zang Haizi.

And it is precisely because of this that it is difficult for others to discover that Yin Shengzhi quietly came to the death zone.

Even Yin Shengzhi didn't even bring the guide Louis...

A large cavalry was galloping in the desert, wearing a sheepskin jacket, shaved on the middle of the forehead, and bald people with small braids on both sides were screaming and galloping on horseback.

But beside them were the neatly formed Wuhe cavalry.

Compared to those bald people who were scattered in formation and screaming.

The Wuhe cavalry seemed to have a much tighter formation, and even when the war horses were galloping, they maintained a rough formation.

Moreover, compared to those bald men, the equipment of these Don Cavalry seems much more luxurious!

The conscience of heaven and earth, among the countries of Ropa, the Uhe cavalry of the Ivanshaki Empire have always been famous for their simple equipment.

However, even these simple-equipped Wuhe cavalry are much more sophisticated than those of the bald people.

Because almost half of those bald people have no steam horse rifles for cavalry.

At least half of them are holding cold weapons, such as bows, arrows, sabers and other weapons.

These bald people have long lagged behind the times!

Therefore, the Great Qi Imperial Army, which was equipped with a large number of steam guns, was able to cross the desert and almost wipe out these bald people.

"These savages!"

The commander of the Wuhe Cavalry mocked coldly. Although these people also wanted to obey him, he looked down on these bald people from the bottom of his heart!

It's just cannon fodder!

The commander sneered and asked politely to a person beside him: "Your Excellency, can you still bear it? Do you want us to slow down?"

The middle-aged man beside him was almost tied up on his horse, and almost foamed at the mouth when he was running away.

However, facing the inquiry of the cavalry commander, he just shouted anxiously: "No, we cannot stop, we must hurry up in the shortest time. This is from the will of the sages..."
