The ancient copper bell swayed, and the sound spread to the distant sky. Driven by the herdsmen, the yellow and white sheep slowly moved forward towards the magnificent city in the distance.
On this endless flat grassland, this majestic giant city stands on the ground, overlooking all directions. The continuous city walls are like mountain crests, with no end in sight.
Under the solid city wall, each gate is open, and countless herdsmen, caravans, pedestrians, and horse-drawn carriages are like ants, going in and out, dotting the land.
After entering the city and proceeding for a few miles, you have to climb the long slope. The inner city seems to be built on a flattened hill. You can look down at the low outer city buildings and streets below.
Further inside, in this high inner city, there is a fortress thousands of meters long and wide. This is the Chinese army camp in Beifu Mountain and the military residence of General Zhenbei.
Looking from the outer city to the tall fortified city in the middle, it looks like a giant sword stuck in the ground, and the hilt of the sword is the tall tower in the middle of the general's palace.
There was a fierce wind in the sky, and it was already afternoon. Although the sun was shining brightly, no one could feel the temperature at all.
At this time, a group of tiny black dots gradually flew in from the direction of the sun. Because of the dazzling sunlight, they were only seen by the patrolling sergeant when they came close to Beifu Mountain.
A bell rang on the tower, and soon a group of knights riding a giant blue and black dragon flew into the sky to greet the unexpected arrival of the Red Bird Dragon Rider.
"The incoming troops will stop. Do you have any documents?" Although these giant dragons with red scales looked like the Red Bird Dragon Riders at the center of the dynasty, the defenders in Beifu Mountain still questioned them strictly and did not relax.
"General Zhuo is really strict in running the army." The red bird dragon general riding on the dragon's back said with approval, and then threw out the token in his hand to watch the green and black dragon knights flying in the air opposite.
"It turns out to be General Xu, sorry." After careful inspection, the person on the other side bowed his hand and saluted, and then sent the token back.
Soon after, these hundreds of red bird dragon riders riding giant dragons slowly landed in the inner city of Beifu Mountain. Immediately, some petty officials who specialized in taking care of the dragons emerged from the city, directing the soldiers to bring meat and water.
With the sound of metal treading on the ground, the Red Bird Dragon Rider landed on the ground, then slowly stood up and carefully straightened the woman in his arms.
"This is Beifu Mountain." Xiao Yubing loosened the blanket she was wrapped in, looked up and looked around, seeming to sigh.
"Yes, Princess Xiao, this is Beifu Mountain. It is a huge city that is the capital of the dynasty. About five million people live inside and outside this huge city." The dragon general behind her spoke, seeming to miss this place quite a bit.
"I served in the army here for five years. I wasn't that powerful at that time. I was just a cruising dragon rider." He explained briefly, and then led Xiao Yubing out of the courtyard. There was a road leading directly to the inner fortress.
"The general who is now in charge of Beifu Mountain is Zhuo Muye. I also worked under him back then, so I know him fairly well." He said as he walked.
"Do you want me to testify and tell the general the contents of Fenghuo's edict?" Xiao Yubing asked, walking behind him.
"Yes." He nodded.
"But I don't understand, what's the point of doing this? After telling him the content of the Phoenix Fire Edict, you then ask the general to dismiss his subordinates?"
"No, Princess, things are not what you think." The Red Bird Dragon General in front turned around.
"In the dynasty, because there are so many sergeants stationed in Beifu Mountain, the emperor's most trusted generals have always been stationed here. Not only that, there are also disciples from Jinzhan Xuanhua Mansion and several other families stationed here for peace of mind.
To prevent accidents."
"If the clear content of the edict is not conveyed, once a great chaos breaks out, there will immediately be conflicts in the Beifu Mountain without being told elsewhere."
"Jinzhanxuanhua Mansion is the confidant of the royal family, as well as the eyes, ears and internal ministers. They will strictly require the generals to obey the orders conveyed by Luo Jing, but the center of the dynasty, alas... In addition, nowadays, the various people who come to visit and the dynasty appear to be incompatible with each other. I don't know how they do it.
Plan, but it’s still very unstable.”
"If we don't explain what happened in Luo Jingzhong clearly, there will be chaos inside Beifu Mountain, and a bad thing will be a river of blood. Many of them were my colleagues, and they were also soldiers of the dynasty. I don't want them to loyally guard the border all their lives. In the end,
But he died a cowardly and aggrieved death in this kind of internal fighting."
"So you still have this idea." Xiao Yubing looked at the back of the dragon general in front of him and slowly recalled some memories about him in his mind.
Xu Feixiong, one of the fourteen dragon generals stationed at Longya in the North Mountain of Luojing, has extraordinary talents and has reached the eighth level of Qianlong. He has led his dragonriders to annihilate evil monsters and beasts six times. His military exploits are outstanding. Seven years ago, he
, Ba Yao became a dragon general, and now ranks fifth among the fourteen dragon generals.
"However, now that the world is in ruins, some things may not go so smoothly." After Xiao Yubing murmured, he stopped talking and turned to look at the surrounding buildings and pedestrians.
The style of Beifu Mountain is very different from that of Luojing. If Luojing is a prosperous place like a garden full of golden flowers, then Beifu Mountain is a dark and cold gray stone forest.
Most of the pedestrians here wear hats and blue and black face towels to keep their body temperature and protect themselves from the cold wind. Although the city is noisy with the sounds of people and livestock, overall, most of them are
A gray and black color, not very bright and vivid.
"Beifu Mountain is not as prosperous as Luojing, but it is not without its merits. If there is a chance in the future, I can take Princess Xiao for a nice tour."
"Forget it, I don't have that intention. Take me to see General Zhuo Muye. If the matter is over as soon as possible, I will leave as soon as possible."
The general didn't care about the princess' cold answer, but continued to talk about some customs and customs of Beifu Mountain, such as where the local herdsmen came from, and they held horse racing and wrestling celebrations every July.
There are also how the border troops here exterminate the monsters and resist the tide of monsters.
As he talked, Xiao Yubing no longer resisted as before, and actually listened slowly.
Time passed by unconsciously, and when Xiao Yubing slowly came to his senses, the two of them had arrived at the Jiancheng Fortress in the center of Beifu Mountain.
Guards wearing black and silver metal armor guarded the place ten steps at a time. Under the leadership of a dozen elite and powerful guards, the two slowly walked into the main hall of the general's mansion.
"Xu Feixiong, meet your lord."
After the dragon general entered the hall, he first bowed and saluted, then stood up and looked around Grandma Kasha. At this moment, in the hall, in addition to the general sitting here, there were seven or eight powerful generals wearing gold and bronze armor on both sides.
, just looking at the ferocious giant weapons in their hands, one can feel a sense of bloodshed. Fortunately, the frontier troops guarding the outside of the fortress often face killings.
"Long time no see, General Xu, what are you doing here today?" Although the world was already on the verge of chaos, the news was not conveyed that fast, and Xu Feixiong rode a giant dragon all the way north, and it only took three days for Beifu Mountain to arrive here.
I still don’t know everything that happened in Luo Jing.
