In the southwest of Guangling River, the center of the large plain where the two rivers gather, waves roll in the shimmering sunshine. The wavy houses that extend from the city look particularly majestic in the afterglow of the evening. The twenty-meter-high outer city wall extends along the river channel, leaving a large shadow in the light. In other places, they have just gotten rid of winter. Here, there is already a bit of the smell of flying flowers all over the city.

Little white pollen fell on the dark city wall with the wind. Deep gaps were exposed from time to time between the city walls. If you look closely, you will find that they were all smashed by huge rocks. These gaps record the war fires and wolf smoke in Guangling for decades. Although the moon dragon flowers on the tall trees all over the city can't cover up the iron armor in its bones.

"It's spring again. I wonder how many people can return to Guangling with their horses from here to ride out of Guangling with their horses!" Guangling City Guard Longqiu Mountain stood alone above the East Gate Tower. Looking at the vast land in the distance, I couldn't help but sigh. The afterglow of the setting sun in the distance was gradually disappearing. At the end of the sight was a large area of ​​boundless farmland. Under the quiet mountain scenery, it was the fact that tens of thousands of Guangling children were still fighting bloody battles in Yanzhou.

The news from Yanzhou is getting more and more difficult. Long Jue, a general of the Long family, died in Shangjing Luokou Fort. 5,700 Guangling children were killed in the battle. The Yelu family army broke through Luokou Fort and completed the final encirclement of Shangjing in Yanzhou. After that, there was no news! Even Guangling, the base camp of the Western Army, was still very fluctuating at this moment. The war in the north has caused tens of thousands of soldiers, and the soul-suming coils hanging on the doors of each household are like white flowers scattered all over the city. Even the spring breeze cannot resolve this grief.

Due to the terrain of the Southwest Basin, the plot has always been heavy in the local area. I even thought that the terrain of the basin was easy to defend and difficult to attack. I just need to get stuck in the pass and see the war outside the basin spread. Therefore, for a long time, the people of the southwest have been accustomed to the atmosphere of their own affairs. During this period, more and more wealthy gentry moved out of Guangling. Even Longqiu Mountain can keenly detect that these gentry left Guangling because they lost confidence in the Long family. The three-way investigation of the court led to the southwest entry into the southwest, which was enough to prove that the Long family, which had been entrenched in the southwest for decades, was unable to control the situation in the southwest. In addition, there was no life or death in the north. The entire southwest expressed dissatisfaction with the Long family defending Yanzhou with the southwest soldiers.

The Long family was able to stay in the southwest for so many years because the Long family was fighting for the southwest. I don’t know how many Long family members came to return to the whole southwest. But what happened to the Long family defending Yanzhou with the people in the southwest? Could it be that the lives of my southwest people are so worthless, and I can’t even take care of them. What about Yanzhou! Even the Long family, this method is not good!

The situation in the hearts of the people is so uncontrollable. During this period, the court envoy Lu Ke was promoted by the government envoy. It has been three days since the court envoy ran to the Long family's residence every day to question the Long family's attack on the court envoy. The Long family ignored it and blocked it outside the mansion. The old man, who was nearly 60 years old, simply built a floor shop in front of the Long family's door, claiming that the Long family had humiliated the court angels. For this reason, the Long family had been closed for two days. The Long family's attitude naturally caused the southwestern gentry in the city to shake. The main force of the Long family is still in Beiyanzhou, and life and death are unknown. Now the base camp is blocked again. The more than 60 gentry in the southwestern Lu family were killed overnight. No murderer has been found yet.

The Long family has 30,000 to 40,000 troops in the southwest, but at this moment, they cannot be drawn out at all. 30,000 are stationed on the border of the Falcon Empire, and 10,000 are stationed on the road to Yanzhou in the southwest. The base camp Guangling has only 3,000 people. Once something really happens, it is still a matter of whether it can be effective. In this case, staying in Guangling is just waiting for disaster!

"Qiushan, how is the situation today? The thirty-nine families in the city, and I'm afraid there is no one left after today!" A general of the Long family wearing armor came over from the distant city road.

"Report to the Lord, the Qian family, the Lu family, the Wen family, the Hu family. ☆→☆→... I have left Guangling a few days ago. Now there are only the Du family in Guangling City." Long Qiushan was shocked and took a deep breath to stand up and salute. It was Shangguan of Longqiushan. The Long family is now in the headquarters camp. Long Po, the younger brother of the head of the family, is different from the head of the family. This Long Po is extremely strong and has a strong body half a head taller than ordinary people. His eyes are bright and burst, giving people a feeling of being burned. When walking, a dull sound came from under his feet, and only a breath of a battlefield general rushed over directly.

"Let's go, let's go, it's better to have all been exposed!" The seemingly crazi leader of the Long family flashed a hint of calmness in his eyes, indicating that he was not as restless as he looked. Long Yang dared to take his main force north to Yanzhou, so naturally what he left behind would not be mediocre. In fact, this Long Po was a very difficult character in the eyes of Zhongbiya Court.

"Sir, the court is going to kill our Long family this time. If you keep giving in, I'm afraid that at that time...!" Longqiushan's face looked ugly and his voice paused. I don't know if he should continue talking.

"Why, are you afraid that my Long family will collapse like this?" Long Po sneered, "These unfamiliar white-eyed wolves, my Long family has not treated them badly for decades. It's just a little bad news and a mere sixth-rank family have bribed them all. If the Long family had not promised that Guangling would no longer let blood drift all over the city, and Guangling was the important place of my Long family, killing people without authorization would have a significant impact on the reputation of the Long family. I would have ordered all these people to be intercepted." Long Po paused for a moment, and he was worthy of being a general in the army. His tone was mostly fierce. He continued to say, "The departure of the gentry is not a big blow to my Long family. As long as the war in Yanzhou is victorious and the main force of the Long family's Western Army returns, everything is not a problem. If Yanzhou fails, it will be the biggest blow to the Long family. So these gentry let them go. At that time, their natural way is that except for my Long family, the court will be unable to protect them!"

"When the time comes?" Long Qiushan was stunned for a moment. Hearing Long Po's meaning, the Long family had already prepared something.

"When you should know, you will know it." Long Po reached out and patted his shoulder and said slowly, "The court wanted to take advantage of the Yanzhou war, but it was just that the Long family would lose in Yanzhou. Why didn't I think that the local snake that had been entrenched in the southwest for decades could be controlled casually? If the head of Longyang had not given an order, I would have seized an excuse and mercilessly expelled the three routes into the southwest in the name of conforming to the will of the people. Sure enough, it showed a little weakness. The court immediately made a big move, and directly smashed the thirty sixth-rank families. Haha, don't say that the southwest gentry was moved, but my Long family was not moved! So it was understandable that these gentry did such a move. It was just that the other party sent people to kill the entire Lu clan, which was another matter!"

"Sir, can the oath of the Long Family's Western Army not entering the land of flattery in Zhangwu?" A thought suddenly flashed through Longqiushan's mind, and his body trembled with excitement. The bloody battle in Guanglingchuan sixty years ago can be said to be a catastrophe in the entire southwest. At that time, when the Gaul Empire in the Western Continent was at its peak, the Gaul Emperor personally led a large army to break through the southwest border defense in three directions. At the same time, he used a fleet to transport materials and advanced along the river, and advanced from the upstream to the southwest basin of Zhongbiya, burned and killed all the way along the way. He almost fought to Guanglingchuan where the two rivers gathered in the hinterland. The 200,000 Gaul army was covered with Guanglingchuan like lees. The sharp spear was like frost on the ground, and the large Gaul fleet coming along the river was loaded with materials. The sails were like forests and the battle formations were like mountains.

After three months of bloody battles, the heavy stone catapult carried by the Gaul fleet almost wiped out the hills near Guanglingchuan. In the end, the plague broke out in the Gaul army and had to retreat. In that battle, the 200,000 local defenders in the southwest of Zhongbiya who defended Guanglingchuan to death, and the number of remaining people was less than 20,000. More than 307,000 military families in the Guanglingchuan Acropolis assisted in the battle, which was almost dead.

The population of the entire southwest was only less than 10 million. Because of this war, two million people directly turned into ashes. The southwest of China, which was originally like China, was hit hard by this battle and could no longer stop the court from intervening. The Zhongbya court sent Long Feiyang, the general who had just suppressed the southern rebellion, to lead 100,000 troops into the southwest, which was powerless to refuse to be in the court.

Many people believe that Long Feiyang enters the southwest, which must be just like the south when suppressing the suppression, and the sword opened the way. First, the local gentry in the southwest was bloody, and then slowly adjusted the southwest. At that time, the people in the southwest were in panic, and the gentry in various places were preparing to migrate and avoid disaster. At worst, they could leave the southwest and go to the southern Song tribes. The southwest was connected to the southwest. The two gentry in the two places were not connected for a day or two. If it were not for the support of the Song tribes in the southern part of the Song tribe, the southwest would not be able to independently block the power of the court for a hundred years, but there were also choices to stay and organize the last one in the southwest.

The force resisted Long Feiyang's entry. Long Feiyang, known as the Living King of Hell, cut off many heads of the southwest gentry, turned many southwest prominent tribes into bloody smoke and dust. In the end, it was Guanglingchuan. The last force of the southwest people was killed by Long Feiyang's army. Tens of thousands of southwest people were thrown into the river channel in front of Guanglingchuan. The earth was stained with blood, and the southwest Zhongbiya in Longjia Town. After decades of changes, Guanglingchuan, a bloody battle front that once saw dozens of miles of mountains and forests, has gradually become Guanglingcheng, with smoke from cooking fires.

As the Long family's power increased, it expanded many times, from ten miles to twenty miles, thirty miles, forty miles, and finally from a former acropolis of tens of thousands of people, it gradually became like before our eyes, with an endless range of east and west, and a southwest city with a population of 500,000, with two great rivers converging. It is in the ranking of large cities of the Central Bible Empire, and Guangling in the southwest can definitely enter the top five large cities.

The Weishan Iron Mine, unique to Guanglingchuan, is the largest iron ore in southern China. There is even a saying that the Long family chose Guangling. In fact, the Weishan Iron Mine valued by Guangling, which is broad in terrain and convenient transportation. With a little development, it will be a king-to-dominated foundation.

At the peak of the Western Army, when the Western Army was not yet divided, the Long family had more than 300,000 troops and was in the southwest. Half of them were from Guangling, and they were the real direct lineage that the Long family could decide in one sentence.

The Long family even took Guanglingchuan as its base camp, constantly moving the surrounding population into it and building more stable fortifications. It also built four gates on the Longyan River in the southwest where Guanglingchuan gathered, completely cutting off the route that the Western Continental fleet might have come along the Xichuan waterway, and continuously devouring the indigenous people around the southwest, expanding the strategic buffer zone, turning the southwest, which originally had only four provinces, into the scale of the six southwest provinces.

Finally, the barrier between the court and the Western Continent became the biggest hidden danger in the hearts of the emperors of the Central Biya Empire for several generations. A minister in the court once said that if the Western Army of the Long Family rebelled and established, 300,000 Western Army of the Long Family will leave Guangling, the entire Central Biya Empire will collapse at least half.

For this reason, the court made a careful plan and spent more than ten years to finally seize the opportunity of an internal conflict in the Western Army, and pulled out some elite troops from the Western Army who had opinions about the Long family and announced their surrender to the government management.

In the name of mediating the conflict between the two armies, the court asked the Long family to be in Guangling, southwest, and the divided Western army was changed to flattering the Zhangwu Army. Under extreme humiliation, the head of the Long family angrily made an oath that "the Long family's Western army will never enter the land of flattering the Zhangwu Army", which was a complete break with the court.

From then on, the Long Family's Western Army did not enter the area that flattered the Zhangwu Army, and the court did not send troops into the southwest, which was equivalent to acquiescing the Long Family's control over the southwest.

For many years, this humiliation that was pressing on the Long family was like an invisible trap, which made the Long family's children feel a little angry.

Now, it is obvious that the court has broken its oath, not only won the hearts of the people, but also sent troops to attack the southwestern aristocrats. Dozens of Lu family were destroyed. Although there was no evidence to point to the court, everyone knew it was done by the court.

"If the court does not keep the oath that day, my Long family naturally has no need to keep it! Two thousand people in the court want to do whatever they want. Do you really think that tens of thousands of people in the Long family are decorations?"

Long Po's hand hit the cold battlements with a strong murderous intent in his tone. His eyes swept across the scenery in front of him and swept the Guangling River that had been flat for dozens of miles, and he said sternly, "My Long family has been in the southwest for decades. He can be considered to be doing his best for the southwest. But just because of the suppression of family members, there are many people in the southwest who complain about the Long family. But they don't say it out on weekdays, and my Long family can't find an excuse to attack. Now, it's great that they all jump out!

Since the people of the southwest are about to forget the Guanglingchuan back then, and have forgotten that Guanglingchuan was stained with human blood, then I, Long Po, will tell them, "Didn't my Long family suppress the family? It's just right for the entire southwest to see how much the sixth-rank family in the court is worth! The account that splits our Western Army back then is time to calculate!"
