Central Parabun, Amira Mountains,

The white fog in the early morning meanders and flows on the mountain road, like a white water flowing in the mountains and forests, the fog in the night moistens the ground, as if the haircut pushes through, drawing rough lines on the ground, the sun has just revealed the distant horizon, the blood-red morning glow and the dense purple clouds, covering the dawn looming in the east,

These brilliant colors changed in the distance, and most of the sky had not yet woken up from the vast night of last night, and the ocean showed a vast floating dark blue

The crisp sound of horses' hooves was unusually clear, getting closer and closer, and in the crisp morning breeze, the cavalry swept across the earth like a gale, leaving behind invisible dust.

The sound of horses' hooves woke up the small animals around them, setting off the cold of early late autumn to be particularly lively, and the startled wild birds fluttered to find a place to hide.

The darkness before dawn gradually passed, and the morning light slowly opened the prelude to the darkness of the earth, and the faint light gradually illuminated the black armor on the cavalry.

The sun shines on the earth, the cold air is full of sweet taste, the green grass buds in the field seem to have grown a lot taller overnight, and the golden colorful grass makes its pale yellow petals, bathed in the warm winter sun as much as possible.

The rumbling sound of horses' hooves was like bursts of thunder, occasionally mixed with the neighing of war horses and the collision and friction of metal vests, and the black armor was lined up in several long black lines that moved rapidly, shining with a dark luster in the golden light of the sun.

Dense cavalry queues were constantly there

The hills sprung up from the heights, looking from afar like a black wall that suddenly appeared in the hilly area, the muffled sound of horses' hooves shattered the tranquility of the mountains, and the morning light shining from the morning mist made these black cavalrymen shine with a dark luster all over their bodies, cold, bloody, and mysterious. The neat procession, as if someone had agreed to direct it, suddenly stopped at an entrance to a canyon

In the winding mountain road at the foot of the mountain, as far as the eye can see, there are corpses of broken nomadic cavalry armor everywhere. The black-armored iron horseman who the Dongting people are most proud of ended up exposing the corpse wilderness.

Whether it was out of hatred or ostentation, the Ryorians were not kind enough to bury the wreckage for the loser, and the Falcon army was ambushed that day. Quickly evacuate from the mountain road, here. It became an area deliberately forgotten by both sides, and the strong smell of rotting corpses in the air was unbearable from a distance of several kilometers.

"My lord, this is the mountain road that ambushed the Dongting people that day."

A light cavalry in charge of guiding the way pointed to the mountain road covered with white bones in the distance, and said, "The 40,000 Dongting cavalry were killed from here that day. Entering the southern area of Parabun, we can reach the target as long as we follow the path pointed by the wreckage"

"40,000 Eastern Court cavalry!"

Varisian's face was slightly cold, although he had already been mentally prepared, but the scene in front of him still shocked him, 40,000 infantry against 40,000 cavalry. Two months later, that ambush battle had already spread all over the continent, as a classic example of Falcon infantry against cavalry, once again shaking the continent. The bones of the 100,000 cavalry in the East Court once again pushed the prestige of the Falcon Dynasty to a peak.

Although Varisien did not participate in the ambush, you can imagine the brutality of the day.

The dense broken bow and remnants in the mountain road below are like wild flowers walking in the mountains in spring, spreading all the way to the end of the mountain road.

In the weeds that are as green as a ping. White bones were faintly visible, and a remnant flag stood diagonally in a recess in the distance. In the morning light, the mountain wind blew the "hunting" and rolled up the flag. The coat of arms of the black-armored iron horse in the east court can still be faintly seen, the flag is still here, and the soldier holding the flag has already turned into white bones.

A large herd of ghould-eating vultures hovered in the air, overwhelming the sky, one after another, wah-wah, wah-wah, wai-wah-wah, as if celebrating their good luck, this mountain road is like a Shura field,

In order to break through the siege, nearly 30,000 of the most elite cavalry groups in the Eastern Court were buried here, and when a race had made up its mind to resist to the death, the destructive power they erupted was amazing.

This can be seen from the distance of these piles of bones.

A lot of bones are piled on top of one rack, almost no interval at all, most of them are also falling in the direction of progress, huge horse bones and white seeping human bones, layer upon layer, shocking to see, it can be seen that the fierce battle of the day, the two sides can be said to have tried their best...,

It is said that the two infantry flag regiments that participated in the blockade that night, even if they occupied a strong position and launched an attack from top to bottom, also paid a heavy price of more than 6,000 casualties, and in terms of total strength, 6,000 casualties accounted for one-half of the total strength of the two flag regiments.

The strength of the Falcon Army's resistance and the final weakening of the Falcon, which was so real that King Dongting Khan really thought that he had escaped from the trap of His Majesty the Falcon, and after plundering the necessary supplies, he hurriedly chose to flee to the north from the direction of the Dorok Mountains.

As a result, he fell into an ambush circle at the Dorok Pass, and finally died in the barren mountains and mountains.

This strange mountain road buried the dream of the rise of a grassland kingdom, and like countless dynasties in history, it is known as the end of the Eastern Garden

"Now, it's my turn to go this way!"

After staring at it for a while, Varisian waved his hand to the cavalry behind him with a stern face, "In the name of victory, let this mountain road sprinkled with the blood of warriors be renamed."

The war horses roared, and countless black-armored cavalry swept down the mountains, like a rumbling and rolling torrent of steel, rushing into the mountain road below full of broken bones.

The battle is on!

Later generations of historians, every time they look through the turning point of the Falcon Dynasty's transition from a regional kingdom to an imperial era that swept across the continent, they will collectively sigh here,

Varisien didn't know that his name would go down in history because of this raid, because he was now feeling helpless about the forked mountain road ahead, and he almost gave the order to return to the army on the spot

The sun was shining overhead, and the falcon cavalry had been wandering the mountain road for a morning,

"How far is it!"

This is the third time that Varisian has asked the light cavalry in charge of leading the way, this road is too long, along the wreckage of the cavalry in the east court, galloping all the way for more than 2 hours, and has not seen the exit of the mountain road, and several times I thought that I had reached the end of the mountain road, but the peak turned around. I saw that there was a passage in front of me, but I found that the front was actually just the corner of another mountain road, and in front of me, a longer mountain road appeared in front of me

"Ahead, right ahead!"

The light cavalry leading the way was sweating profusely and replied with a nervous face.

In fact, he did not walk this mountain trail, and the reason why he was sent as a guide. Because he was recruited from a village near this mountain road, this mountain road was too remote and full of wolves, and no one in the ordinary villagers walked it, even on the map of Rui Erdian, it was difficult to find this mountain road.

That's when it happened. The scout cavalry in front reported that they had encountered a group of falcon cavalry patrolling nearby, which made Varisien overjoyed.

"Quick, bring the people" Varisian excitedly ordered the scout, soon. The scouts brought back a team of falcon patrol cavalry,

"The sixth squadron of the 3rd Cavalry Regiment of the Falcon reports to you!" The patrol cavalry captain is a very spiritual young man, with a handsome face and a slender and toned body. Dressed in the armor of the Guards cavalry, but the droops on the sides of his hair betrayed him, this is a Kujitte,

"Do you know where the valley exit is?"

Varisien's face suddenly became excited when he learned that the other party was from the Third Cavalry Banner Regiment, the Third Cavalry Banner Regiment belonged to the Central Army and was stationed in the area of the Elmira Mountains, if the other party was really from the Third Cavalry Banner Regiment. Then it proves that the other party is also like yourself, entering from another section of the mountain road. Since the other party was able to run in front of him, it was enough to prove that the other party was quite familiar with this place.

"Your Excellency is looking for the exit to the valley?" said Litsaag with a strange look on his face after learning that it was the famous Varisian who was in front of him

"I'm sorry my lord, I'm just afraid that I can't help, my subordinate's duty is to hunt down the nearby wolves to protect the nearby villages, because of the help of the mountain people, it's okay for this mountain road, but if you continue to the south, you have to enter the Evil Wolf Gorge, then there is no way, almost no one dares to go there, no one leads the way, there is no way to find the specific location of the valley exit, in my patrol, there is a person who has crossed the entire mountain road, that is, this person is temporarily recruited, is a Ruierdian person, I am afraid of ......"...,

"Oh. Someone crossed the entire mountain road alone!" Varisian, who was originally a little depressed, suddenly became excited, looked at the patrol leader in front of him, his eyes lit up, he waved his hand to interrupt the patrol leader's words, and hurriedly shouted, "Okay, it's him, it doesn't matter if it's Ruierdian, as long as you can find the exit of the mountain road, I don't care which country he is!"

Litsag waved his hand to the last person in the queue behind him, "Boslaie, come here!"

A very tall young man heard the shout and slowly came out of the patrol queue, wearing a very ordinary black armor, he didn't feel it just now, but as soon as he came out of the queue, he immediately attracted everyone's attention,

Because the outfit on his body is so eye-catching, a red beanie, a blue silk hanging from the hat, crimson cavalry shorts, a leg tie of the same color, and a sharp small scimitar stuck in his waist,

Although his face is a little pale, he has an indescribable temperament, as if nothing in front of him can attract his attention, you may not notice him, but when you pay attention, you will find the other party,

"Boom"

Varisian heard the sound of the guard cavalry drawing his sword next to him, and his face couldn't help but be stunned for a moment,

He recognized the sword-drawn guard, called Erdos, who was a centurion of Kugit before joining the Varisian Banner, and was considered a well-known steppe warrior

"Stop, what do you want to do!" Varisian yelled, quickly asking the others to stop the sword-drawn guard,

"My lord, let me kill this man, he is a Raldian Black Banner! I will always remember his face, it was he who slaughtered 70 of my men in Kugit!"

The escort cavalry waved the war knife in his hand with a hideous face, shouted hoarsely, his eyes were full of red bloodshots, if it wasn't for Varisian to stop him, he would have ridden over and split the young man, in the chaos of the Battle of Arakawa, this escort cavalry used his body to block a knife for him, although he lost an arm, Varisian still incorporated him into his own guard, and after preparing for this battle, he would go to the place to be a town mayor or something according to the military merit arrangement

"You're the Black Flag of Ryerdian?"

Varisian looked up and down at the young man whose face had not changed, and his tone suddenly became gloomy, although the other party had not yet answered. But that indifferent look is almost not wrong,

This made Varisien suddenly wake up, yes, yes, it was still strange just now. How could a fierce general like himself, who had experienced a bloody battle, face a small patrol. I will also feel a feeling of depression, and now I find out that it is because the other party has a killing aura that has been cultivated on the battlefield for a long time, and this aura cannot be concealed at all.

"Yes, I used to be a Black Flag squadron leader!"

The young man replied expressionlessly, even in the face of the sharp sword raised by the guard cavalry on his forehead, there was not a trace of fluctuation in his indifferent gaze, and at first glance he was a professional soldier who had been in battle for a long time

"...... you" Hearing the young man's answer, Varisian's expression suddenly turned grim. Knowing that it was difficult to do this time, the Ruierdian Black Banner, as one of the most elite troops in Ruierdian, is said to be composed of criminal nobles and has strong combat power. But also particularly brutal,

According to conservative estimates, in the war of the Northern Army attacking the northern steppes, Black Flag defeated 7,000 Kugit soldiers, but slaughtered 12 tribes, and more than 40,000 Kugit civilians died in its map.

For an army with less than 3,000 people, such a figure shows its brutality. It is within the Northern Army of Ruierdian, if it is not a last resort. He didn't want to get involved with this army, although in the end the whole army was wiped out in Weimandu in the north, and he didn't get a single commendation from the Ministry of Military Affairs.

But if this person is really Ruierdian Black Flag, then it's a **annoyance,

Varisian knew that many of the cavalry under his command were from the reorganized Kugit steppe, just like this escort cavalry.

These Kujit are true warriors, and as long as they give an order, even in the face of a decisive battle, they will never frown.

In the battle of Arakawa, he was able to break the blockade of the Dongting cavalry with a sharp spirit, and defeated the famous Dongting general Bogol Zamu in the final tug-of-war, and these Kugit cavalry who were not afraid of death played a key role.

But these Kugit people are not the same as the black flag of Ruierdian, who committed a lot of blood debts, if they know that the guide is a black flag, they are afraid that it is possible to mutiny on the spot, which can make Varisian have a feeling of wanting to hit the wall, and finally find one that can lead the way, but it is a Ruierdian black flag, and he can only look at it dryly...,

"My lord, if it's okay, I'll go down first!"

There was a contemptuous sneer on the corner of the young man's mouth, he could see that the general of the Falcon Dynasty who was in front of him was embarrassed about his former identity, he had already seen more such eyes, the reputation of the black flag was so ugly that even the young man himself wanted to forget it, but he was always mentioned

"My lord, Lord Prais of the rear team sent to ask how far the exit of the valley is?

"He doesn't even know any of the Ryordians, how do I know how long I'm going to have to go around this place!"

Varisian was anxious, how could he be in any mood to answer, and suddenly a thought flashed through his mind, yes, Prais is a native of Ryrdian, and most of his rear team are soldiers from Vekia, and there is no resistance to the black flag of Raldian, but it is a key to unlock the current predicament,

"Sure enough, it's still Your Majesty's cleverness!" Varisian sighed in his heart, he finally understood why His Majesty Falcon had ordered Prais to accompany the team, this lieutenant with a great reputation among the people of Ryrdian was really a master key to face such problems

"Bring this man to Master Prais at once!, and tell Lord Sù Prais that if you are not able to pass the Guò mountain road in the afternoon, and you are afraid of the sword of the Falcon Majesty, you will have to sacrifice the head of Lord and me," Varisian commanded in a loud voice.

The herald hurriedly led the young man past the crowd, and Varisian ordered the squadrons to stop on the mountain road and rest,

After riding his horse and running for 10 minutes, he finally saw Prais who was studying the map in the back team, the former military minister of Raldian, was also at a loss for this unfamiliar passage, the maps of this era are often not detailed, the maps made by Vicchia are relatively better than those of other kingdoms, but most of them are determined according to the descriptions of merchants, and this mountain road has never been crossed by caravans, and naturally there is no detailed description,

From the continental map, the topography of the Parabun Plain is like an upturned wing, and at the edge of this wing, there is an arc upturned, which is the Emira Mountain Road, which is a remnant road that extends south from the Emira Mountains.

Prais's finger tapped heavily on a point on the map, which was probably the exit of the mountain road, and by this time, the herald in front had already brought the young man to him, and Prais was studying the map, not noticing the look of surprise in the eyes of the young man opposite

The herald conveyed Varisian's words to Prais, who raised his head in some surprise and looked at the young man in front of him with a sharp gaze.

The last thing to look at was a mark on the young man's bare wrist, a black tattoo that resembled a round of physique, or a sign of a torture instrument burn

"Heraldic branding, you're a punished general?"

Prais stared at the tattoo, his face changed, in Rui Erdian, only general-level prisoners would be branded with this special torture device to represent their own family coat of arms

"Yes, I used to be the flag commander of the Fourth Banner Regiment of the Third Army of Rui Erdian, and I was sentenced to enter the Black Flag of Atonement for the crime of treason"

The young man looked at Prais with some excitement in his indifferent eyes, and replied, "It's an honor to meet you here, I believe you should remember the name Urssa."

"Urssa, you're the same Ursas in your rebellion!" Prais muttered to himself, bowing his head at first, and then suddenly raised his head, looking at the young man in front of him in shock, obviously stunned by the name
