Chapter 2: Winter

The news from the front is really not happy, all those who have experienced the fighting in the country of Lai want to be able to rest, and do not want their homeland to fall. The worse news is that the leading general of Liangguo is Yan Qinghou, as well as Daigo. Lin Rusheng, who was guarding Jiang Guo, died in battle, and he was still Yan Qinghou's comrade-in-arms at the same time. Unexpectedly, time has passed, and Yan Qinghou has completely become a different person.

Yan Qinghou was originally from Jiang State, but Shunzhou City was later occupied by Liang State, and it was the territory of Liang State from beginning to end. Yan Qinghou had the intention to subdue his homeland, but he had never been able to do so, but he didn't expect to attack his homeland for the enemy country in the end. In Yan Qinghou's heart, it may be unbearable, but he has great righteousness, and that is the world. After all, a city is just a city of people, if the world can't be condensed, but then it will become the world of demons. He will not let go of his traditional heart and let the world created by humans be handed over to the demons. This is also Yan Qinghou's determination to kill Lin Rusheng.

The Liangguo army did not slaughter the city, but it did not only loot as in the past. This time, they occupied the Meng Dynasty, the capital of the Jiang State, and the next step would be to regain their strength and march to the Qi State in the east. It is said that after seeing the momentum of Yan Qinghou's army, Yongguo and Yunguo were also ready to move, hoping to join Yan Qinghou's team and get a piece of the world map.

After Yan Qinghou occupied the Meng Dynasty, he said to the people of Jiang that those who were willing to follow the human race could stay in the original place, and there were still traitors who yearned for demons in their hearts, and he would not kill them, and let them flee to other places. Yan Qinghou originally thought that after seeing his uprising, everyone would choose to stay and fight side by side to strengthen his team, but he didn't expect that nearly half of the people chose to flee to other places. Jiang Wang and Ma Shuheng did not choose to leave, but they also did not intend to stand on Yan Qinghou's side. used to be the most powerful general in his country, but now he occupies his country with the army, King Jiang has a stomach full of bitter water, and he doesn't know who to complain to. That taste is not as simple as a simple demise. Yan Qinghou also gave the two of them time to think about it, and the two of them hoped to wait for Jiang Mengsheng to come back and see how she decided. But Yan Qinghou understands that Jiang Mengsheng is not the young woman in the past, let alone the purest princess in Jiang Country. The demon didn't know what magic power she used to attract her firmly, she would always follow the demon left and right, and she would definitely not follow Yan Qinghou's advice and turn against the demon.

Yan Qinghou said in front of King Jiang that Jiang Mengsheng was bewitched by the devil, and he still hoped that King Jiang would make a decision himself. If King Jiang can agree to join Yan Qinghou and call on the people of the whole country to fight against the demons together, plus the 500,000 army of the Liang Kingdom will definitely have a chance to destroy the demons. However, the person who knows Jiang Mengsheng best is naturally Jiang Kangshou, the king of Jiang. He knew that his daughter had always been very sober, and she could be said to be the most sober person in the world. His three sons had all stood on Yan Qinghou's side, and handed over all the military power and tiger talismans to Yan Qinghou. Jiang Wang originally planned to tell Yan Qinghou about Jiang Mengsheng's life experience, but he didn't say it in the end. He felt that Yan Qinghou was walking on the road of no return, and he couldn't turn back, maybe saying it wouldn't help. He now commands the forces of Liang and Jiang, and more than 800,000 people are staring at him. If he knew that Jiang Mengsheng was a descendant of Nuwa, then all the 800,000 people would really believe him? It was the human race who chose to drive the Nuwa tribe into a desperate situation, how could they believe that the Nuwa tribe that had colluded with the demons in the past would lead the human race to victory today?

After three days of traveling, Yan Che and his party finally returned to Qi Kingdom.

There is no news of Jiang Guo's attack on Qi State yet, but it will be called soon.

The main force led by Yan Qinghou was a native of Liangguo who lived in the northern cold land. The people of Liangguo are divided into North Liang and South Liang, and the people of Nanliang are very similar to the people of Jiang, regardless of clothing, customs or language, and their living habits are mainly farming. In Beiliang, it is dominated by herdsmen, and looking at the past, there are vast grasslands. To the north of the grassland, there is the extremely cold land of the ice and snow, and the Hades Hall of the underworld is directly below the extremely cold land. Once the grassland is devoid of grass in winter, herders will invade southward, burning, killing and looting. They have no land to cultivate, and their long nomadism has left them moving at a speed of movement. Everyone who lives in Beiliang must learn to ride a horse, and they are the ones who can really live by nature.

Beiliang is still martial, and because of the relationship of grazing, the tribes have been wandering for a long time, and there is no real leader. As for Nan Liang, the king of Nan Liang is the father of the Seven Swords Mo Feixue. This time in the Battle of Jiang State, Mo Feixue also participated. With two seven swords at the same time, coupled with Daigo's help, the Liang State army was unstoppable, and captured the entire Jiang Kingdom along the way.

After Yan Che arrived in Qi State, he didn't stop to rest, Liang Guoyan waited over there and sent the war book first, which was quite a bit of the picture when Yan Che entered the imperial study of King Jin Shijie of Qi alone to write the war book. Yan Che read the war book, which was full of words such as justice and demon eradication, and said that before winter, humans would drive the demons back to the demon realm again. After reading it, Yan Che lit the fire with his finger and burned the letter directly, and couldn't wait to see what kind of surprise the "Cutting Iron" who had left his side and was still breathing would bring him.

Yan Che was still a little concerned about Zhao Yige, and asked him: "Soon I will fight with Yan Qinghou, will you release water when you see him?"

Zhao Yige replied with a smile: "The strength is insufficient, where do you dare to release water, it's not a suicide." ”

"What if the strength is enough?"

“......”

"You hesitated. One hesitation on the battlefield can kill oneself. Although Oni Shili is the Yama who rules the underworld, after resurrecting you, you will also lose the memory of the past, in other words, you are no longer you. It's best to be mentally prepared, what you should face will eventually be faced, Yan waits for that step, then it's your turn to make that step. ”

This time against the Liang Guo army, it is impossible to reinforce from Laiguo, Laiguo has just changed blood, and the whole people have been reincarnated, in other words, in addition to those monsters on that island, only three people from the Yanagi family are left who can still use knives. The Sea Tribes are also not suitable for land, although there are rivers and lakes in the interior, but only the sea is suitable for them. Yan Tiege immediately convened a military intelligence meeting, and before the meeting, he had learned that Yan Qinghou had placed Jiang Wang under house arrest, and Jiang Mengsheng's heart was like a knife. At present, if you face the enemy head-on, I am afraid that even if there is a chance to win, the other party will have the bargaining chips to destroy the ship. The best way is to sneak into the territory of Jiang before the big war comes, and it is best to be able to rescue King Jiang. In the current situation, most people don't know anything about the situation in Liang Kingdom, if Yan Qinghou was present at the beginning, he must have been the head of the battle and told the details of the enemy. It's just that I didn't expect him to be an enemy now, which means that we don't know anything about the enemy, but the enemy knows everything about us.

There are many people from Jiang who have fled to Qi State, and many of them have been to Nanliang. Most of them don't know much about Beiliang, because they are not from the grassland, and as long as the Beiliang people are not from their own tribe, they will rob and plunder the women and children who appear on the grassland. So everyone doesn't know anything about that group of nomads, and the only thing they can know is that the Southern Liang and the Northern Liang are not in harmony. This time, the Southern Liang and Northern Liang coalition forces went south together, and there must be interests in it. Nomads think very highly of themselves, and even if they are outnumbered, they will not easily join forces with others, at most they will join forces with other tribes on the steppe. Those who join forces are intertwined with the conspiracy of the yang, and each tribe is like brothers in getting through the difficulties, and once the difficulties are overcome, they will fall apart again, and then the swords will face each other. The best way to do this is to find a way to divide the opposing coalition first.

At this time, the green wolf, who had reconnaissance experience in the Northern Liang Kingdom, had a say. He once turned into a giant wolf on the grassland to inspect the situation on the Beiliang side. According to the information from the wolves in the north, the extremely cold land is constantly spreading to the south, the winters in the north are getting longer and shorter, and there is no grassland, so the north is having to migrate to the south, perhaps this is an important reason for the cooperation between the north and the south. The Northern Liang people prefer the grasslands, and although they often come to the south to burn and loot, they will eventually return to the grasslands of the north. The extremely cold land is directly above the underworld, maybe the ghost Shili knows something about this situation?

Ghost Shili touched his beard, and suddenly remembered that there was a dragon who had been living on the snowy mountains in the extremely cold land. That dragon was none other than the Frost Dragon.

Perhaps it was the Frost Dragon that extended the winter in the Extremely Cold Land, making the snow wind too violent, causing Northern Liang to have to cooperate with Southern Liang. Then next, the plan can be arranged like this: one army goes to the extremely cold land to let the winter of the grassland recede, once successful, Bei Liang's army will be unstable and want to return to the grassland; In this way, the army can not be bloody, and the human army can avoid cannibalism.

To go to Liangguo, you must pass through Jiang Guo, and if you directly cross Qishan from the northern part of Qiguo, it will only be a vast ocean. To the north of Qishan is Beihai, which is the territory inhabited by the mermaid tribe. With the help of the mermaid clan, you don't need to pass through Jiang Country, and you can directly reach Beiliang by land and water. Therefore, after thinking about it, Yan Tiege decided to distribute it like this: all the demons went to Beiliang, because the dragon clan was not so easy to deal with, and only when the whole army pressed could he be completely sure, and on Jiang Guo's side, he decided to send Zhao Yige alone.

When Yan Tiege said this, Fu Qinggu was not happy. She felt that Zhao Yige was the only one to go to such a dangerous place, and there was no one to collect the body when she died there. Fu Qinggu, who has been pregnant for more than three months, now has an obvious bulge in her abdomen, and even has the impatience of a pregnant woman. She felt that it was too risky for the demons to go to the north with a bunch of people, but only send Zhao Yige to infiltrate Jiang Country alone. As a result, Yan Tiege told her that the more dangerous the place, the safer. After their demons arrived in the extremely cold land, the people in the Qi country took a walk to the Jiang country and told the people of Beiliang that the winter of the grassland would recede, and as long as this last winter passed, the grassland of Beiliang would always be lush and no longer icy and snowy. At that time, Jiang Guojun's heart will be disheartened, and all the herdsmen tribes will clamoring to return to the north to herd sheep. The use of tactics rather than force is the strongest art of war. After the news spread, Yan Qinghou would definitely be tired of appeasing the military hearts of the Beiliang people, at that time, he would definitely not dare to send troops easily, and he would also come to the extremely cold land to deal with the demons, at that time, Zhao Yige in the Jiang country was the safest.

Fu Qinggu heard it in a fog, and she naturally didn't understand those things. Yan Che took her out of the conference room and told her what was going to happen in the evening. He summed up Yan Tiege's words, that is, Zhao Yige is absolutely safe, and after this winter, he can take down Liangguo.

Fu Qinggu was bottomless in his heart, after all, this group of relaxed demons who talked about it, how could there be anything to reassure human beings. In the conference room, except for Fu Qinggu and Jiang Mengsheng, the only human being is Zhao Yige. But he seems to be able to integrate into the demon clan very well, and he strictly implements the arrangements of the demons, and never gives an opinion. There was a piece of cloth wrapped in a sword around his waist, and there were three swords in it, maybe Zhao Yige was becoming more and more like Yan Qinghou, so Fu Qinggu was very attentive to him. She was also worried that Zhao Yige would take the path that Yan waited for, that road was really too dangerous.

Outside the window, the clouds were thick, and the boundary of Pei'an was north, and there were signs of snow. Fu Qinggu looked at the sky, and suddenly a snowflake fell on the tip of his nose.

Snow again. She remembered her mother.

Yan Che also saw the snow, took off his cloak and put it on Fu Qinggu, and asked her to go back to her room to rest first. He told Fu Qinggu again that human beings can withstand every cold winter.
