Stepping into the endless wilderness, Lin Yue slowly walked forward with his three little apprentices, and he asked: "Ya'er, the hometown you are talking about is Bambok County?" Sulan Island is a unified kingdom, and the administrative division here is also based on counties, under the county is the town, and the smaller ones are the villages, and there are no state capitals or anything like that.

Some of the aristocrats here only owned a manor or a mansion, and they had to fight for the continuation of their families. Some nobles had fiefs and could support knights. The knight is the youngest nobleman here, and the lord is the same. The difference is that knights are known for their martial arts, and they must have combat effectiveness and merit. And the lord can be a meritorious person, or an ordinary person with knowledge and fame, or even a rich person who buys it with money, they don't have to rely on force, but they must have something extraordinary.

These are all good things that Lin Yue took advantage of the fleet's stay for a few days, completed a large transaction in just three or four days, and increased the supplies for the voyage, and the entire fleet began to sail, and Lin Yue also stored with Qi Diaoling for a few days, and by the way, he inquired about the customs of Sulan Island, and exchanged some currency here, after all, he was going to stay for a while. As for Ji Ya's hometown, it was already decades ago when her grandmother left, and the name Baanbock was left in three generations, except for Suran Island.

As an island country, Sulan Island is not small, but it is really not big compared to the Great Zhou, that is, the land of a county divided by the Great Zhou, and the military area under the jurisdiction of Lin Yue as the general army of Yuanzhou was smaller than this island, and it is estimated that it will not exceed one-third. The king here is placed in the Great Zhou, that is, a middle-class and inferior prince. Even so, Sulan Island still forcibly carved out forty-seven county administrative units, which were basically not as large as one county in Dazhou. After inquiring, I found out that this was still less, thirty years ago, there were fifty-three counties on this island, which made Lin Yue look very magical.

Putting these aside, Lin Yue has already inquired clearly, Bamberk County is an old county on Sulan Island, after hundreds of years of several dynasties, although it has been repeatedly increased or divided, but it has always existed, such old counties even in this country There are only a dozen or so, and the rest have either been fused or cut and changed their names.

Although this island is not large, but the entire island country has a population of just over 2 million, barely a vast and sparsely populated area, and the wilderness is full of desolate scenery, originally thought that the most prosperous trading port in the whole country, Pearl Harbor, is somewhat unworthy of the name, but now it seems that the port is really prosperous.

Bamberkshire, located in the east-central part of the entire island nation, is not a wealthy place, but it is not barren either, and the only thing that is commendable is that this place has twelve knights. In addition to the royal capital in this country, there are few professional armies among the nobles in various places, because they can't afford to support them, so most of the time they just organize a team of guards and recruit militia in the territory during wartime, and although the knights are the smallest nobles, they still need to be canonized by the royal capital, and they must rely on strength and meritorious service, so the number of knights has become a demonstration of regional strength.

As a nobleman, he naturally can't be indiscriminately sealed, at this point it is the same as the Great Zhou, even if the financial deficit is to the point of selling the official beard, the red line of the nobleman is also very strict, even if he is rich here, at most he is a nobleman, although he is at the same level, but he can't even get a knight without merit.

After walking for two days and passing through two large farmlands, the four masters and apprentices finally came to a new field, which was a little more lively than before, with a stone-built village in the distance, a slight cold blowing, and sheep moving slowly on the green and yellow grass. Seeing this scene, the sound of bagpipes unique to Suran Island seemed to sound in my ears.

For a while, the four masters and apprentices were infected by the delicacy of the vast wilderness, so Lin Yue asked the shepherd who was really playing the bagpipes next to him: "Hey, friend, how far is Bambockshire?"

The shepherd put down his instrument and looked at the four of them: "This is it, it has been since the hillside you just walked. "Unlike Da Zhou, here Lin Yue is an outlier, and the blonde Ji Ya is regarded as an ordinary person. In the past few days, Lin Yue and the three of them have also begun to get used to it.

Lin Yue muttered, "Yes, it's already here." Ya'er, your hometown is right in front of you. ”

……

Just when Lin Yue Sulan Island was looking for Ji Ya's relatives, in the mansion of the Demon Master in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Demon Cloud Sea trembled and received a battle report......

A few months ago, the so-called purge of the 'Western Party' by the imperial court had slowly ended, but the war in Shu had just begun. Mo Yunhai ordered the veteran Guan Ying to be in command, and Zhonglang will Xuan Qievil and Xia Yuan as deputy generals, with 150,000 troops to march to Tianfang City, and secretly issued two military orders, Chai Shengnan of the garrison Ludi and the messy of the southern battalion have the right to arbitrarily decide on the spot, and the messy can go north to participate in the war at the right time, and Chai Shengnan has the right to cut first and then play, and can dispose of up to the military position of the four expeditions (general of the east, west, south, and north).

The veteran Guan Yingnai is the in-law of the fourth prince, Xuan Qievil and Xia Yuan are also the generals of the four princes, the last rebellion in the capital, except for Lin Yue who left with a swagger, the rest of the people were half-promoted and half-house arrested. Although there are some hardships in besieging the city and forcing the palace, after all, it is against the way of the subordinates, and it must not be put in the local area as the chief soldier, and the demon cloud sea is afraid that the reaction of the whole army is not easy to deal with, so this time he simply led the troops to the battle.

The war between the imperial court and Xishu was inevitable, and Xishu put forward the slogan of 'Qing Wang', but the imperial court was shouting 'remove rebellion' because the king had already issued an order and set this tone for the Marquis of Shu, he was rebelling and calling on the princes of the world to crusade together.

At the same time, the army of Shu Di defended Tianfang City with all its might, and fought a war of attrition with the army of the imperial court. Tianfang City is in the easternmost part of Shu, surrounded by mountains, it is the throat road in and out of Shu, called Tianfang, it is taken from the meaning of each side of the sky, if it is an ordinary few people, it can still go over the mountains and mountains, but the army of the imperial court wants to enter the whole army, it must go to Tianfang City.

There is no other plan to march, and Wuguan in the north is also a road, but if Moyunhai wants to go, he has to make a detour to Jindi, and he has to pass through the Gobi, and the Wuguan city wall is strong and difficult to overcome. And it is also a way to go west along the Great River, but it is easy to fall into the disadvantage by going upstream and breaking into the enemy's hinterland, and the finances of the Great Zhou do not support the Demon Cloud Sea to build a large number of warships, without large ships, hundreds of thousands of troops can only take the land route. As for the south, it is the famous Shunan Road, which is also a trade route connecting Shu and southern Xinjiang, but it is also not suitable for the army, but it is much more spacious than other places, and the messy southern camp directly threatens Shunan Road.

The two armies faced each other for more than two months, and in several battles, they won and lost each other, but neither side was in a hurry, and they both had a killing move for each other. Just when the battle between the two armies was at a fever pitch, General Zhou Zhennan immediately raised troops north to raid Shunan Province. Under the response that the Demon Cloud Sea had already arranged, the raiding army of the Southern Battalion had already flown across Guanshan, breaking through the four passes and approaching Rongcheng, the capital of Shuhou.

Although there were bumps along the way, there were no major obstacles, and there was a bad premonition while being messy, it was true that most of the entire Shu army was contained in Tianfang City, but even if he was caught off guard for a while, his own partial division should also attract the attention of Shu Hou, how could he be so ignorant? Isn't it because of the lack of combat power, so the turtle shrank up and defended the pass? If that is the case, the war will be difficult, but it will be relieved to change the angle and messy, because there is nothing to do with Yushan here. He was really worried about colliding with the people of Yushan. Mortal affairs are best solved with mortal power.

On this day, the army came to a plank road, and seeing that the road was narrow and could not move forward, a soldier immediately went to report that it was messy, and messy rode a white tiger slowly. Seeing that the plank road was narrow and there was a big waterfall on the opposite mountain, he smiled and said, "This matter is simple." With that, he took out a pair of red and blue tokens.

This red, one and one blue two-sided token is collectively known as the Ice and Fire Yin and Yang Order. It can manipulate water and fire, coupled with its own wind spirit fairy art, whether it is supplemented by water and fire, it has a miraculous effect. He chanted a spell in his mouth and the two tokens became larger, like two swords in his hands, and he was seen waving the blue token, and to the surprise of the army, he saw that the waterfall rolled up from below, drove directly to this side, and then froze into an ice bridge. In order to prevent someone from slipping above, the messy guardrails were also raised on both sides.

The entire ice bridge is enough for four carriages to run in parallel, and the troops of this raid are more than they can say less, and this ice bridge is enough.

Where have the ordinary people around seen such a method, and they have praised the messiness. Messy didn't care and directly called the army forward, and he called the guide and asked: "After here, how far is it from Rongcheng?"

The guide replied: "General Huiyu, this place is called Tianjian Ridge, and over the mountain is Qingfeng Gorge, and Rongcheng is just behind." ”

Messy nodded: "So, it's going to be done soon?"

The guide said: "It's just that Qingfeng Gorge is the gateway of Shunan Road into Rongcheng, and at the bottom of Qingfeng Gorge, there is also a Qingxia Pass, which can be said to be easy to defend and difficult to attack." ”

Messy didn't care, but breathed a sigh of relief: "It should be so, if there is no stubble, this road will be smooth and overdone." ”

After saying nothing all the way, the army arrived at Qingfeng Gorge, looked at the dangerous mountain walls on both sides, and then looked at the blue sky squeezed into a line by the stacked mountain rocks, and couldn't help but say: "What a dangerous place!"

Suddenly, an adjutant general shouted: "General, look!"

Messy looked, only to see a gray miasma rising on the narrow mountain road ahead, at a glance it was not a good stubble, the surrounding soldiers suddenly panicked, especially in such a dangerous place, as a sneak attack army, not only was discovered, but also set up an ambush early, how could these people not panic in their hearts.

Seeing this, Messy first took out a long flag, embroidered a white tiger on both sides, people who are familiar with Messy know that this is his battle flag, the soldiers somehow, as soon as they saw this flag, the restless mood was also calmed down, and in a short time the army lined up again, and the whole army formed a killing coercion.

Everyone doesn't know that this big banner embroidered with a white tiger is also a messy magic weapon, called the white tiger to break the formation flag, absorb countless battlefield battle qi, destroy all demons, and make the morale of the soldiers and generals take the lead.

Others don't know what the situation is ahead, messy but thoughtful, I'm afraid that it is the Qimen formation laid by the monk, it stands to reason that messy is now the most appropriate to ask people to test this formation, but the disciples of Butterfly Valley generally can't do the practice of sacrificing the lives of others to achieve their own goals, thinking of the messy here to let the army be in a tight formation, and go to this formation by himself, he really doesn't believe it, in this world, in addition to the three sects, there are any loose cultivators who can threaten themselves, even if it is in the other party's array.

At this time, in the midst of the maze, a young man sat cross-legged in the array, and when he saw the army coming outside, he knew that he had waited for the target to arrive, and he was still thinking about how to make the next move, but he didn't expect the other party to break into the formation by himself.

I saw that the person who came was about 30 years old, heroic, with a long face and thin lips, sharp eyes, wearing a royal blue brocade robe, with a silver carved armor diagonally outside, and a red and a blue token on his hand. The young man in the formation knew that it was indeed him, so he spoke: "Yushan disciple Mu Jianying, see Senior Uncle Ling." ”
