Chapter 127: Four Kings and Nine Subordinates
Around, there is the frontier of my Snow Spirit Country, and it is also the most important fortress of my Snow Spirit Country, and it does not fall into the city. ”
Qin Qingtian pointed to a huge city in front of him and said.
Zhou Fu looked up, his eyes fell on the city, and his face was solemn.
The city that does not fall, the fortress of the border passes.
This city has resisted countless invasions for the Snow Spirit Country, and as long as this city does not fall, the Snow Spirit Country will always stand.
"It's been five days, and it's finally here. ”
Looking at this city, he said secretly in his heart.
The speed and endurance of the red dragon horse are far from being comparable to those ordinary horses, and even those demon beasts that turn into mounts want to surpass the red dragon horse in these two abilities, it is extremely difficult. Even so, it took them five days to travel overnight before they came to the southernmost fortress of the Snow Spirit Country, the city that never falls.
"Generals, soldiers, please dismount and drink saliva!"
At this time, an old woman from the surrounding villages shouted at Qin Qingtian, and the people from the other villages on the side also opened their mouths to invite the rest of the Red Dragon Riders to dismount and rest.
"Auntie, it's okay, we'll be in the city soon, and we won't bother you. ”
Qin Qingtian smiled softly at the many villagers, and then rode forward.
At this time, many villagers who got the news gathered on both sides of the avenue, silently watching Zhou Fu and his group pass by, with deep gratitude and respect in their eyes.
Zhou Fu was in awe in his heart, Qin Qingtian, or the entire Red Dragon Ride, won the hearts of the people, because these villagers knew very well that these soldiers who did not fall into the city were exchanging their blood and lives for the peace of their lives.
In comparison, those nobles who have big fish and meat in the imperial city, and intrigue for a little power, are like rotten maggots.
Then Zhou Fu's brows furrowed, and he found that except for the city of immortality and the huge city wall that blocked it, the surrounding area was wide and there were no defenses.
"Senior, the avenue here is open, and there are no defenses around except for the city that does not fall, if the city does not fall and is broken by the enemy, the many villages in the rear will not be ......"
Zhou Fu looked at Qin Qingtian and asked, if the city of immortality is breached, there are countless large and small villages going in from here, and the people of these villages are ordinary people, facing the enemy who can break through the immortal city, I am afraid that they will be trampled into pulp in an instant.
"They won't waste their energy for these ordinary people. ”
Qin Qingtian's voice was indifferent, but his heart was cold, and the cold air slowly rose from his spine.
Indeed, if you want to protect the people in these villages, you have to set up a lot of defensive measures, but these defensive measures will consume manpower and material resources, and for those in power in the imperial city, these people are civilians, and if they die, they will die, and they will have no effect on them.
"If you don't fall into the city, you can't fall down, there are old and weak women and children among the people in these villages, and they can't run if they want to, and if they don't fall into the city, none of them will be spared. ”
Qin Qingtian's voice was low, he was extremely dissatisfied with this situation and extremely helpless, even if he was the King of the Heavenly Heaven who was famous in the Snow Spirit Country and even spread his reputation to other countries, he could not change this status quo, unless that supreme monarch of the Snow Spirit Country spoke, this status quo would never be possible

Change. All he Qin Qingtian could do was to use his life to protect these ordinary people.
Zhou Fu's fists were clenched, so Yang Baizhan pinched this to death, and only then did he drag Qin Qingtian during the period of the fall of the Earth Spirit Sect.
Zhou Fu said softly: "Is there no other way?"
Instead of answering Zhou Fu's question, the Heavenly King asked, "Zhou Fu, do you know the specific situation of the Snow Spirit Kingdom?"
Zhou Fu shook his head: "I don't know." ”
"The Shenzhou Continent is vast and endless, and there are countless strong people. The place where our Snow Spirit Country is located is only a corner of the continent, and this corner is called the Eastern Wilderness. In the Eastern Wasteland, there are thirteen kingdoms, four kings and nine subordinates, that is, four kingdoms and nine lower kingdoms. ”
Zhou Fu nodded slightly: "The Snow Spirit Kingdom is one of the nine lower kingdoms, and it is attached to a certain kingdom." ”
The King of Heaven glanced at Zhou Fu with some surprise: "That's right, aren't you unclear?"
Zhou Fu smiled slightly: "I still know about the Xia Kingdom and the Kingdom, but I don't know much about the relationship between the Snow Spirit Kingdom and the surrounding countries." ”
With the memory of Emperor Wu of the Burning Heavens, Zhou Fu not only knew that the lower kingdom was a subsidiary of the kingdom, but also knew that there was a kingdom above the kingdom, and there was a stronger existence above the kingdom. Of course, as the Burning Sky Martial Emperor, he would not have the slightest interest in any lower kingdoms, kingdoms, and the like, and even the entire Eastern Wilderness Region would be difficult for the Burning Heaven Martial Emperor to mention any interest.
The Heavenly King sighed, "My Snow Spirit Kingdom seems to be powerful, but even among the Nine Great Lower Kingdoms, it can't rank first, let alone compare to the Kingdom. As you said, our Nine Kingdoms in the Eastern Wilderness are all attached to the Four Kingdoms, our Snow Spirit Kingdom is attached to the Maple Leaf Kingdom, and together with our Snow Spirit Kingdom, there is also the Earth Flame Kingdom. There was constant friction between the nine lower kingdoms and they competed with each other. ”
A cold light flickered in the Heavenly King's eyes: "For example, on the other side of the city of I do not fall, there is the Yuan Lie Kingdom, which is the top of the nine lower kingdoms, and in the decades that I have been in office, the Yuan Lie Kingdom has attacked the city many times. ”
Zhou Fu felt the chill on Qin Qingtian's body, and he understood it very well in his heart. If the entire Xueling Kingdom wants to talk about who has the most hatred for the Yuan Lie Kingdom, it is Qin Qingtian, in the past few decades in office, every time he repels the attack of the Yuan Lie Kingdom, how many soldiers will die under him, and the hatred between them is not a little bit.
"Will the Four Kingdoms let the Nine Great Kingdoms fight?"
"The Four Kingdoms will hardly interfere in the friction and strife between our Lower Nine Kingdoms, unless it is time to destroy the Kingdom, and maybe they will make a move at that time. And the reason why they intervened was just for themselves, every ten years, the four kingdoms would send the geniuses of the kingdom, as well as select the most talented young powerhouses among their subordinate countries to participate in the Eastern Wilderness Competition. ”
Zhou's eyes flashed slightly: "All the young geniuses of the thirteen countries of the Eastern Wilderness are gathered together, what is the picture?"
"The outstanding genius disciples in the Eastern Wilderness can get countless benefits, if someone from the vassal country of the four kingdoms can be among the best, that kingdom will give many benefits to the vassal country and greatly enhance the national strength. For example, if someone from our Snow Spirit Kingdom can enter the front in the Eastern Wilderness Dabi, the Maple Leaf Kingdom will give us the treasures of the Snow Spirit Kingdom to improve the national strength. ”
"I see, it's a very common way to select genius disciples...
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
...”
Zhou Fu's heart suddenly realized that in the memory of Emperor Wu of the Burning Heaven, this method was quite common, not only between large and small countries, but also between powerful sects and weak sects, that is, the big forces only selected outstanding disciples from the small forces.
"So because of this Great Wilderness, the four kingdoms all want more powerful vassals, or more vassals, right? The nine lower kingdoms are constantly fighting with each other, that is, the four kingdoms hope that their vassals can consume the strength of each other's vassals, and even if they can destroy the vassals of other kingdoms and then merge them for their own use, they can select more outstanding young people from among the vassals. ”
Qin Qingtian glanced at Zhou Fu in admiration: "It's worthy of you, you have thought of it like this." You're right, if you can destroy and annex the other nine lower kingdoms, the territory of the four kingdoms will expand, the resources will be richer, and the national fortune will be stronger, so there will be more geniuses and strong people born, and the results achieved in the Eastern Wilderness will be better, and more importantly, this is a virtuous circle, the already strong country will be stronger, and the already weak country will be weaker, and finally be destroyed. Therefore, if there are nine kingdoms that are about to be destroyed, the kingdom to which they belong may come to their aid, and the kingdom will not interfere in these matters. ”
"The kingdom is so strong that it dominates the Eastern Wasteland, so the monarchs of the Nine Great Lower Kingdoms all hope that one day, the country under their command can also become one of the kingdoms, and the same is true of my Snow Spirit Country. The royal family wanted to destroy the Earth Spirit Sect, and also tried to swallow the other major sects, just to gather all the geniuses of the entire Snow Spirit Country in the Holy Kingdom Courtyard. This is also the reason for the establishment of the Four Elephants Kingdom Courtyard hundreds of years ago, but it was only half completed at that time, and even with the power of the royal family, it was impossible to swallow all the sects at once. ”
Qin Qingtian sighed: "You should also know that the royal family's attitude towards me has become more and more obvious, and they want to kill me because my existence makes it impossible for them to completely control the army. And if the other sects are as uncompromising as the Earth Spirit Sect, they will also be wiped out, and the Earth Spirit Sect is just a warning. Yang Baizhan shot at the Earth Spirit Sect was killing two birds with one stone for the people behind him. ”
Zhou Fu's heart was cold, this was not just killing two birds with one stone.
At this time, everyone around the city had already come to the city of Buluo, the huge city gate was closed, and there was a row of fierce soldiers exuding evil aura on the city wall.
"It's the generals!"
"Open the gates!"
When those soldiers saw Qin Qingtian, their faces full of fierce aura showed excitement, and they saw the city gate slowly open, and on the avenue behind the city gate, all of them were already standing with soldiers, all of them looking at Qin Qingtian respectfully.
"Welcome the general back to the city!"
The crowd shouted in unison, as if they were extremely excited. They all knew that their general was going to the Imperial City this time to fight against Yang Baizhan or the Holy Kingdom Academy, so even if they believed in Qin Qingtian very much, they were also extremely worried about Qin Qingtian when they thought that the enemy was not simple, but fortunately, Qin Qingtian returned safely.
Qin Qingtian let out a sigh of relief, looking at the faces in front of him that were a little red from excitement, an indescribable feeling rose in his heart, these people were all people who had entrusted their lives to him, brothers who had been born and died with him many times.
"Brothers, I'm back. ”
