Fierce flames were burning, and the towering and majestic ancient city walls were in ruins.
Standing on the top of the city were soldiers in short uniforms and crowns, holding crossbows and halberds in their hands, looking slightly flustered.
The dark army was neatly arrayed in the wasteland dozens of miles in front of the city. Strong winds swept across it and the sky was filled with yellow sand.
The air was filled with solemnity and solemnity, and it was quiet, with only the sound of the howling wind.
"Gale, gale, gale!"
At a certain moment, all the black-armored soldiers raised their swords high in the air, and a roar like a tsunami surged out. Looking up, the pairs of golden eyes revealed were like the eyes of animals in the smoke-filled plain desert.
Not far away, in a majestic and gorgeous wooden palace, the fire was burning more fiercely due to the strong wind.
There was a loud, clear roar that sounded like a ferocious beast, and a huge black shadow in the sky loomed in the clouds, finally revealing its figure.
Its gorgeous and ferocious majestic body is simply the work of the Creator. Its thick and tough scaly long tail is like a whip, which can directly smash a seven-story pavilion building in the city.
"shoot!"
At the top of the city, there was a general wearing a mink suit and a Yi crown (Zhao Wuling crown) on his head, loudly organizing his soldiers to fight back.
Arrows forged from fine iron came like black rain all over the sky, and many soldiers were rolled to the ground like hedgehogs.
More arrows were blocked by the violent wind caused by the red dragon flapping its membrane wings. They lost their sense of proportion for a moment and were blown to the ground one after another, without any shock.
"Bang!"
Another huge monster fell from a high place. It knocked out a huge hole in the rammed earth city wall that was sixteen meters high and three feet thick.
It just stumbled forward, collapsing so many buildings and destroying so many streets along the way. Only the ground made thunderous vibrations from time to time, leaving huge footprints.
The general standing on the chariot drew the sword hanging from his waist and gave the signal to charge.
A low and majestic trumpet sound sounded from the military formation, and thousands of war horses galloped in the battlefield, like a torrent of steel, rushing in with the majestic momentum of the Qiantang River tide touching the sky.
The black military flag waved in mid-air, thousands of horses under his command were silent, thousands of troops came out, and for a while the sun and the moon were dimmed.
Only a luxuriously decorated carriage was still parked at the central flag, with two young people with the same appearance but different temperaments standing on it.
The handsome young man on the left is holding the crossbar of the four-horse chariot with his hands. The armrests decorated with bronzes have a metallic cold feeling coming from the palm of his hands, but it is more real.
It's as if he really exists in this world.
So the young man turned his head and looked at the emperor beside him, who was dressed in black and had twelve hair hanging down.
"After all these years, this scene is still the most exciting!"
The emperor sighed.
This was the era that once belonged to him, that magnificent, majestic and legendary world.
It wasn't until he saw the Zhao Ziwang flag with seven points of red and three points of blue at the top of the city being cut in half by the black-armored soldiers who rushed to the top of the city that Li Longyuan finally came back to his senses.
It turns out that this majestic city is the capital of the Zhao Kingdom recorded in ancient books, Handan!
There are so many anecdotes, such as "learning to walk in Han Dan", "talking on paper", and "asking for forgiveness", that are inextricably linked to this ancient city.
So this is Qin?
The boy raised his head slightly, and the black royal flag with the word "Qin" on it was arrogant.
During the Warring States Period, almost every vassal state had its own natural destiny, called the Five Elements and Five Virtues.
Among them, the Wei State came from three families and was divided into the Jin Dynasty. Taking advantage of the "fire virtue" of the Jin Dynasty, its clothes and flags were red.
As one of the three families, South Korea, in order to show that it is unique, advocates virtue and loves youth.
Tian Qi is mainly based on the virtue of fire, supplemented by the virtue of gold and fire, supplemented by the virtue of gold, metal is refined in fire, the king's weapons are of lasting virtue, and purple is advocated in flags and clothing.
There are hundreds of ethnic groups in the Chu State, and they were enshrined as a state after the barbarians established themselves and were decorated with various colors. It was later deduced that the descendants of Emperor Yan advocated native virtues.
The Yan State was near the sea, and he was from the orthodox branch of the Zhou Wang family. The Duke of Yan State had long felt the decline of the Zhou Dynasty, so he changed the virtue of fire to the virtue of natural water, and the flag was blue.
Zhao State, on the other hand, changed the fire virtue to the fire virtue of "fire virtue is the main part, wood virtue is the supplement, wood assists the fire nature, and the fire virtue is stronger", and the flag became seven points red and three points blue.
It's better now. Whether the country is strong or not is another matter. The palace is indeed burning fiercely, and the flames are rising into the sky with billowing black smoke.
Among the seven heroes of the Warring States Period, only Qin had no definite moral character, but the whole country admired black. For this reason, many of them were ridiculed by other countries, saying that Qin was a barbaric land and could not be transformed into a king. It became a weird and mysterious country in the eyes of other countries.
Western States.
Later scholars speculated that the flag of the Qin army was actually Shui De, because Qin Wengong captured a black dragon when he went hunting in his early years, which was the auspicious sign of Shui De.
"No, what the hell is this?"
I don't know if the boy knew that he was in an illusion, or if he was fearless. He stretched out his hand and pointed at the flying dragon that was spitting red flames not far away. That ancient and tough body contained immeasurable power.
"In China's oldest history, the Yellow Emperor's army could drive tigers, leopards, and bears to fight, so why not control dragons?"
The black-robed emperor stood with his hands behind his back, ignoring Li Longyuan who was gradually becoming stunned beside him.
"Conquer...control the dragon?"
Is this tone of teasing a pet serious?
This is a true pure-blooded dragon. The only specimen currently collected by Kassel Academy is a red dragon cub sample comparable to the third generation species. The whole body was soaked in formalin solution and was as weak as an ancient dragon.
The aberration of the lizard.
These are already endangered and protected animals. How can they have any dignity like dragons?
Even if they are orthodox, they only dare to raise a few less aggressive sub-dragon species in private. Among them, Bixi, the longest-lived one, is comparable to the next generation species in some aspects.
But to form a dragon force similar to the current Qin army is simply wishful thinking.
"So, this is your confidence to destroy the six countries?"
Li Longyuan has completely determined the identity of this black emperor in his mind, the First Emperor of Qin.
The young man in black robe who shared a face with him was noncommittal.
"But why hasn't any news spread to future generations? It shouldn't be."
Li Longyuan murmured to himself.
Even in the historical records collected in the orthodox collection, there is no special description of the unification process of the Qin Dynasty. Except for the record that the First Emperor was a mixed race and that the Ying family was suspected to be a potential descendant of the Black King, there is no description.
"At the beginning, the only materials that could be recorded and preserved were the classics of the Six Nations. Wouldn't it be better to kill a group of people and burn some books?"
The emperor waved his sleeves slightly, looked at the burning city in the distance, and replied casually.
"Burn books and entrap scholars?"
Li Longyuan swallowed in disbelief, feeling that a corner of his long-established worldview was gradually collapsing.
Could it be that this is the historical truth?
"What about dragons? Aren't those dragons immortal?"
Li Longyuan couldn't suppress his curiosity at this moment and asked again and again.
