In the northwest region, black crows fill the sky.
Several faceless corpses were discovered by herdsmen.
The herdsmen who discovered the body were very frightened and quickly backed away.
Find the Cao Jun spies who explored this place and tell them.
Cao Jun's spies rushed to the place where the incident occurred, found several faceless corpses, and brought them back to the camp.
At this time, Cao Jun and the Ma family were under full martial law.
After waking up, Maliao thought it was a fantasy.
I have grown up on the grassland for more than thirty years and have never heard of the demon country.
"According to legend, a demon king only passes through the country once every thousand years."
Maliao was very sad. What was before him was a multiple-choice question.
If you continue to stay on the grassland, you may encounter enemies from the demon country. If you return to Beiliang City, what will happen to the Ma family's huge foundation? So many war horses are the foundation for the Ma family to settle down in troubled times.
Maliao was originally a little indecisive, but now he has fallen into a phobia of choice and is in a dilemma.
Cao Su didn't wait for Ma Liao to react. He directly told Ma Liao that he would raise his troops to the south and leave the grassland today.
"Going to Beiliang City?"
"You can go to Beiliang City, but which Beiliang City should I go to?"
Cao Su would definitely not go to Beiliang City. If he, a foreign general, took three thousand elite soldiers to go to Beiliang City, wouldn't he just make himself unhappy?
Therefore, he will definitely bypass Beiliang City and go directly to the west of Liangzhou. According to the original strategy set by General Feng Yuchan to quell the chaos, he will go to Jincheng to listen.
"Cao's army wants to withdraw?"
This made Maliao completely panic.
At noon that day, Cao Jun's spies also found several "faceless monster corpses" and brought them into the camp.
By Cao Su's side, Qingxiao had already rushed back to Beiliang City to deliver the news to Dao Palace.
There is a Taoist palace stationed in Beiliang City, but there are none further north.
Therefore, there are no Taoists around Cao Su now.
There are only Zhang Ke, Luo Yi, Li Li and other powerful generals, plus Wu Ming, the military advisor and counselor, and the new recruits include Ma Chao and Hu Qi Lieutenant Centurion Chun Yushuang.
Ma Chao just found out two days ago that his name is now Ma Chao, and he looked uncomfortable.
In addition, Centurion Shi Yong, who was specially promoted by Cao Su, walked into the camp to obey orders.
Everyone gathered around to watch the "faceless demon corpse" brought by the spies. Chun Yushuang, who had already recovered to some extent, shouted: "Master Cao, this is a typical corpse formed after being killed by a 'demon'."
Several faceless monster corpses had their facial features as if they had been eaten. There was no trace of blood on their bodies. After they died, they emitted a foul smell, and there were some scattered soil on their stiff finger joints.
"In the Demon Country to the north, it is said that there are one hundred thousand great demons."
"But due to the restriction of the realm, I have been unable to leave the Demon Kingdom. Occasionally there may be some cracks in the realm, causing some demons to wander into the Qianyuan Region."
"Mobei is the most unstable and chaotic place in the world."
"To the north of Jincheng and west of the grassland, many demons live in Mobei."
"Those can be called 'little demon countries'. Although they are also harmful, due to various reasons, they generally will not leave Mobei."
"But what we are encountering now should be the great demon from the Demon Country in the Northern Territory."
"The sky is filled with black crows. This is a sign that the demon king has entered."
Everyone listened to Cao Su talking quietly over there, and gradually gained a clear understanding of the Demon Kingdom.
What Cao Su said was also knowledge he read in the Imperial College.
Above the strength realm martial artist, there are still higher realms such as the mysterious realm, and above the alchemy-forming qi-refining masters, there are also the Yuanying qi-refining masters.
The same goes for demons, there are small demons, and above the big demons there are old demons.
Old demons have been practicing for thousands of years, and old demons usually give themselves some titles of "demon king", so they can also be regarded as demon kings.
Starting from the realm of demon kings, the strength of different demon kings varies greatly.
But no matter what level the demon king is, once he crosses the gate of the realm and enters the human world, there will definitely be strange phenomena.
Black crows fill the sky, and blood spreads thousands of miles away. The combat power of the demon king who has entered the country now is probably quite impressive.
"With the evidence of these demon corpses, the affairs of the demon country can no longer be false."
Cao Su stood up and looked at everyone.
Everyone held their heads high and held their chests high, showing no fear.
"Everyone, the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. We must not fight forcefully. We must seize the time to initiate strategic shifts and strive to preserve our strength to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy."
Cao Su spoke righteously, and everyone clasped their fists to accept the order.
After noon, Cao Jun broke out of camp and headed south.
Since Cao Su's army obtained a large number of war horses, all his sergeants rode on war horses and became mounted infantry.
As for the many Qi-blood warriors, they were all organized into cavalry ranks by him, and the number of cavalry under his command reached two thousand.
Once Cao Jun left, the Ma family did not dare to stay any longer.
Maliao ordered everyone in the Ma family to move and headed south with 50,000 of the Ma family's elite war horses.
The rest of the horse family, who had difficulty moving and could not bear to leave their homeland, stayed on the grassland, along with the remaining tens of thousands of war horses.
Amidst the rumble of horse hooves, more than 10,000 people began their long journey, all the way south.
.........
.........
The capital of gods, the royal palace.
In the emperor's south study room, the emperor Wen Heng, who was in his thirties, was writing.
The emperor did not have many hobbies in his life. One of them was practicing Taoism, and the other was writing.
Wen Heng's calligraphy is fresh, elegant, natural, his brushstrokes are smooth, his stipples are thick, and his calligraphy is vigorous yet delicate. He belongs to the ranks of the great masters of the time.
Today, I heard that Heng became very interested and began to write ink in the study.
"The Xia Ming Sword is bowed and shining on the frost, and the horse is riding out of Huaiyang in the autumn wind."
"Until the emperor takes over the land of Hehuang, he has no intention of looking back at his hometown."
Next to Wen Heng were his sons.
Although Wen Heng has been the emperor for a long time, all the concubines in the palace before gave birth to princesses. Only the current Empress Yang gave birth to two dragon sons for him. Empress Yang's mother is more valuable because of her sons, so she takes the throne.
took the position of queen.
As a result, her brother Yang Ming became the general of the dynasty and was deeply favored.
After that, some concubines gave birth to dragon sons, but they were all still in their infancy. Only the two princes of Empress Yang are now ten years old and the other five years old. They are in the golden age of studying.
Today I am in the study room, listening to my father’s teachings.
The second prince was still young and could not understand the poems written by Wen Heng, but the eldest prince had already mastered many words and sentences. With his father's instructions and encouragement, he read out the poems word for word.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In addition to a few princes, there are also some important ministers specially invited to the study.
The prime ministers, generals, and lieutenants on the left and right are all there.
Several people listened to the eldest prince's childish voice and recited this poem, and couldn't help but look at each other.
I secretly wonder what this poem means, and what does the emperor mean?
After the eldest prince finished reciting, Wen Heng motioned to the eunuch to come over and take the two princes away.
"You don't need to be restrained. I just heard this poem suddenly and was inspired by it. These are all important ministers of my court. What do you think of this poem?"
Wen Heng said with a smile. He was very satisfied with the poem he had written and carefully laid it flat on the desk.
Right Prime Minister Yu Wenqian was the leader of scholars in the world, and the emperor's eyes fell on him first.
The emperor loves poetry and wants to comment on the wind and moon. As a minister, he naturally knows everything he knows.
Yu Wenji thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this poem vividly exaggerates the scene of soldiers going to war, and expresses the determination to regain their homeland. It is murderous, neatly contrasted, and has great literary talent. It is a rare and good poem.
poetry."
Wen Heng nodded slightly, Yu Wenji's evaluation was fair.
But that's not what he wanted to hear.
He turned his attention to the general again.
General Yang Ming's scalp was slightly numb, and he felt that the emperor's gaze was a bit incomprehensible.
He doesn't seem to be very good at criticizing poetry.
The key is where this poem came from, why was it on the emperor's desk, and what did the emperor want to express through this poem?
Yang Ming's thoughts were racing for a moment, and then he responded with a smile: "Your Majesty, this poem is truly a masterpiece!"
"Oh? Where is 'God'?"
The emperor asked with a smile.
Several scholars immediately rolled their eyes. People who butcher pigs and sell shoes dare to talk nonsense about poetry and vulgar martial arts. If you don't understand, you just don't understand. Are you just pretending?
Yang Ming immediately started talking nonsense: "Today, in the land of Huaiyang and the land of Hehuang, there are still wars that have not been settled. Although this poem is only a few sentences, it vividly displays the war situation between the two places and expresses the sentiments of war between the two places.
The great determination to quell the war between the two places. Although this poem is written about an individual, I feel more like it is writing about my Qianyuan world."
"If all the soldiers in the world can have this mentality, why worry about the world being unfair?"
Yang Ming didn't know whether what he said was right or not, and looked at the emperor anxiously.
The emperor was a little silent and did not respond immediately.
He finally looked at Lieutenant Rong, wanting to hear the old Lieutenant's opinion.
Lieutenant Rong thought for a while and said hesitantly: "I don't know how I thought about this poet, but I think he and I thought about it together!"
"Your Majesty, the world is not at peace, and I have trouble sleeping at night. I only hope that the world will be at peace soon."
After Lieutenant Rong finished speaking, he lowered his eyes sadly and looked worried.
The other people were immediately shocked, looking sideways and cursing in their hearts!
Pooh!
You old man with a bright beard and a gray beard, I have never seen such a shameless person!
