The smoke from the burning forest shrouded the sky over Leizhou for eighteen years, and it has been burning the southwest of Leizhou into a vast cloud wall, and this history is called "Eighteen Years of Leizhou". This war directly changed the core strategy of the Wu Clan. The Umno have since fully recognized the physical gap between them and the barbarians, and they have given up on reforming the large-scale field army. Since the Wumin had occupied about two-thirds of Lanzhou's land by this time, they gradually realized that their once powerful navy in Kyushu seemed to be useless. The high cost of naval maintenance made them miserable, and the Umno people were forced to turn the regular navy into pirates, allowing them to freely attack the Chinese merchant ships in order to cut off the maritime trade between the Chinese and the barbarians, and systematically involving the Crane Snow Regiment in assassination operations against the barbarian generals. The barbarians were forced to roam the vast grasslands along the coast of the Inland Sea with "traveling orders" to pass orders and implement the internal relocation and forbiddenness to the sea.

Maritime trade between the Chinese and the barbarians. Since then, the situation of the Barbarian Feather War has not undergone any major changes for nearly a thousand years, and the barbarians rely on the Cloud Destroying Pass to firmly control the eastern foothills of the Gouyun Mountain Range, and due to the vast southwest cloud wall, they have no ability to further eastward. The only variable is that the white wolf regiment in the northern part of Shuo will occasionally bypass the Gouyun Mountains from the far north, and invade the Thunder Island from the walkway between the Yingxiang Mountains and the Gouyun Mountains or the "big wind outlet" between the Yingxiang Mountains and the Moruo Mountains to raid the Thunder Island for small-scale raids. But the interests of the Wumin are not the only reason for Du Yizhan's trip, the reason why he appeared in this place at this time also includes his own will, as the will of a Heavenly Driving Warrior. In fact, the conflict of opinions within the Heavenly Drive Sect Sect Council on the Northern Expedition of the Zhou and Qing Dynasties was very fierce, and the young generation represented by Ye Wang believed that this war was of positive and decisive significance for the establishment of a unified country, the elimination of the war and the maintenance of peace, while the relatively conservative old people believed that the impact of this war on the future situation in Kyushu was difficult to estimate, because their old opponent, Qin Tianjian, was undoubtedly influencing this war behind it, and no one could say what kind of purpose was hidden behind the complex actions of Qin Tianjian. Even sometimes Tianqi himself was not sure whether his actions had fallen into the trap carefully designed by Qin Tianjian, and he personally pushed the situation step by step in a direction favorable to Qin Tianjian.

As such, the Templar Overlord did not issue an order requiring the Templars to participate in the war, but it did not explicitly prohibit it. Many Templars joined Emperor Wu of Zhou's camp after concealing their true identities of their own will, and the radical Du Yizhan was one of them. Du Yizhan's actions in the Eastern Continent were going well, and by Zhou Qing's side, there was a powerful Templar comrade-in-arms, Ye Wang. In other words, even without such a relationship, he was able to smoothly get in touch with the imperial party and new leaders such as Zhou Qing, Bai Liyu, and Su Jin. Because, as the proton agreed in the covenant between the human race and the Wu clan during the period of Emperor Zhou Ren, he lived in the capital of the Tianyuan Emperor for twelve years, and was honored to be the first Wu Min in history to enter the Jigong Guoshi Mansion to study, and was a classmate with Su Jinshen, Ye Wang, Li Dangxin, Ye Zheng and others for nine years.

Du Yizhan told Zhou Qing and Baili Yu in detail about the plan of the Wu people, and the Wu people promised to send the Wu people troops from the Qingliang Peninsula in Yunzhou to secretly integrate into the Zhou Wu Iron Brigade at the same time as Zhou Qing's next Northern Expedition, and the Zhou Qing unified deployment. At the same time, at the right time, he raided the Cloud Destroying Pass, and then flanked the northern capital with the Zhou Wu Iron Brigade. The conditions of the Wumin were that the area south was owned by the Zhou Dynasty and the area north was owned by the Wu people. This is hardly an attractive condition for Zhou Qing, and after summing up the failed experience of the first Northern Expedition, Zhou Qing thinks that he is fully prepared this time. After the training of the first Northern Expedition, the First Iron Brigade of Zhou Wu has rapidly grown from a new army lacking actual combat experience to a unit capable of fighting well. And the thin archers of the Wumin, in Zhou Qing's opinion, may not be better than the tall and strong Bauhinia long shot under him. But Zhou Qing still decided to accept the kindness of the Wumin, after all, sending the Wumin's soldiers to the front line to die was definitely a good deal. Zhou Qing was not naïve enough to allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch, and after exterminating the barbarians, the next goal was of course to recover the Qingliang Peninsula in Lanbei and even Leizhou. And even if the desolate Hanbei is handed over to the Wumin, Zhou Qing is confident that he can forcibly recapture it by force - the Wumin will never be able to turn Hanbei into a dense forest like Leizhou overnight, not to mention, leaving the Wumin in the north can also help him defend against the powerful enemy in the northwest.

In order to show respect for this covenant, Zhou Qing immediately sent a secret envoy to follow Du Yizhan to Leizhou, this secret envoy did an excellent job, and he even received a promise from the Wu Emperor to gradually restrain the Wu pirates after the situation in Hanzhou stabilized, which could not help but make Zhou Qing ecstatic. And behind all this, there is another pair of eyes that have been quietly observing the situation, every battle in the North Continent has been compiled into a file and sent to the Great Pope of the Qintian Supervision Sect in a steady stream. There is no doubt that the next Northern Expedition of the Zhou Wu Iron Brigade will sweep through Hanzhou. This is an outcome that the Celestial Guards do not want to see, and they must find a way to balance the forces of both sides, and ensure that the war will inflict greater losses on both sides - the Celestial Guardians are not unwilling to see any kind of peace, but they only accept a peace that both sides lose. Therefore, the Great Pope sent a secret envoy to Beilu to teach the barbarians the sand steel of Youzhou, the overall armor forging method of Tiefutu, and the mining technology. The envoys of the Qin Heavenly Prison offered to the craftsmen of Beibi Mountain to exchange the original of their collection of ancient scrolls of art, the Book of Causes, which is said to be an important reference for interpreting the true meaning of divine revelation that had been lost by the great craftsmen for more than 2,100 years.

In the eyes of the craftsmen, it was a great deal to exchange this outdated technique for a precious scroll, and they not only eagerly agreed, but in just three months, they revised the design based on the data provided by the Celestial Inspector and made samples to make it more suitable for the physical characteristics of the Hokuriku barbarians and horses. It is worth mentioning that there always seemed to be enough scriptures or artifacts in the hands of the Qin Heavenly Supervisor to lure the craftsmen to willingly exchange them with various techniques, new or old, and most of them were not even included in the Longyuan Pavilion, and it is completely unknown whether these scriptures were systematically plundered by the Qin Heavenly Supervisor or forged to cater to the psychology of Heluo. The Sect of Governor Qintian handed over the Iron Float technique to the Shuofeng Tribe, the only tribe in the grassland that could afford the high cost of the Iron Float at the time.

At this time, Chu Yun was already fourteen years old and began to try to express his opinions in the Five Elders' Association. After Chu Ye's death, the Chu clan's Shuofeng family did not elect a new elder, but defaulted to Qiu Yueli taking over the position of elder. As Chu Yun continued to grow, Qiu Yueli thought that his mission had come to an end and began to gradually withdraw from the power system of the Shuofeng Ministry, so the so-called Five Elders' Guild had actually become the structure of the Four Elders' Auxiliary Government. The tragedy of the Second Northern Expedition of the Zhou Wutie Brigade was largely related to the new monarch of the Shuofeng Department. However, Chuyun Alam Khan Shuofeng, the beginning of the martial arts of the great monarch on the grassland, is a tragic story.

Fourteen-year-old Chu Yun had a huge disagreement with the elders over the issue of the Iron Floating Slaughter. The elders were suspicious of "selfless" assistance from foreign tribes, and in the history of the Hanzhou steppe, the heavy cavalry tactics of frontal assault also became the mainstream for a time. The tribes competed to thicken the cavalry armor, and after the cavalry armor could not be restored, there was a new round of horse armor upgrades, but the result of the arms race was that one day they looked back and found that they had spent so much money on the armor, but the sacrificed cavalry power did not return enough protection, and the light cavalry re-became the main force on the battlefield with high mobility and longer combat time. The cavalry armor reverted to a more balanced point. Therefore, the Iron Floating Tu, which looks more "heavy" than the previous hoplites, looks even more unreliable. Only the young Tie Biao expressed his support for Chu Yun. Compared to the elders who were getting old and conservative, Chu Yun was more enterprising, and fourteen years old was the age when he was full of vigor and was not afraid to try anything. He believes that the failure of the heavy cavalry on the grassland lies in the fact that they have only been seeking to increase the quantity of armor and not pay attention to quality, and the double-layer sand steel technology of Tiefutu is not only an improvement in the sense of quantitative change, but more attention is paid to the qualitative change of the overall design.

The biggest enemy of the Shuofeng tribe was no longer the barbarian tribe that was still struggling to protect itself, but the Zhou Dynasty on the other side of the Tiantuo Strait. The Iron Float is the nemesis that can restrain the heavy armored spearmen who inflicted a huge blow on the barbarian cavalry during the First Northern Expedition and the Wind Tiger Iron Cavalry, and only it can tear through the iron plate formation of the heavy armored spearmen. Chu Yun had long been dissatisfied with the elders, and he was becoming more and more impatient. He scorned their stubbornness, and even privately called them old immortals. He thought that he no longer needed these old guys to be hindered by his side, so he proposed to return the government to the monarch and asked for the abolition of the system of the five old auxiliary governments.

The elders couldn't convince Chu Yun, and they pinned their hopes on Qiu Yueli's help, hoping that the Shuofeng Clan, who had been in power for ten years, would stop Chu Yun's "foolish behavior" as a mother. Qiu Yueli didn't even let them into her tent - the place where she once met with the elders and participated in political affairs together, only let the maid pass on a message: "The prince is big, let him be in charge of anything." "Qiu Yueli was too tired, and the heavy tribal affairs dragged her down, making her seriously ill. The son has grown up, and now she just wants to spend the rest of her life peacefully like an ordinary woman. The three elders couldn't sit still, they believed that Chu Yun would lead the Shuo Feng Sect to the path of destruction, and moreover, Chu Yun had been becoming more and more unreasonable to them, and they had also been angry with Chu Yun for a long time. When Chu Ye was alive, they may still have some fear of the Chu Shuofeng family; Or at least Qiu Yueli is not infected, and they will also be a little bit of a rat bogey. But now they suddenly discover that their enemies are nothing more than orphaned and sick women. Yan Zhu was the first to make a decision to launch a coup d'état in the name of saving Shuofeng's department, and establish Qiu Yueli's other son, that is, his son-in-law, Chu Guang, as the monarch, Chu Guang has always felt that his mother prefers Chu Yun, who is a fellow of his mother, and he and Chu Yun are both sons of the Maharaja, but they have no chance to be the throne of the Maharaja, and they are always jealous in their hearts, so they hit it off with them.

Later, Yan Zhu persuaded Li Qianyi and Chao Zhe again. However, the three elders did not inform Tie Biao of this decision, Tie Biao used to be Chu Yun's account companion, and various political opinions often coincided with Chu Yun. The elders' plan was to kill Chu Yun first, and then inform Tie Biao, so that he could only accept the fait accompli. Even if he refuses to accept it, the soldiers of the three clans will not dare to act rashly. This was an extremely secret operation, and the three elders had made up various reasons to call back the young people of Chu Yun's own clan, and they were worried that these young people might hinder this operation because of their long-standing friendship with Chu Yun. Chu Guang pretended to pass on Chu Yun's instructions and transferred the guards around the Golden Horde, and when Chu Yun was completely defenseless, the soldiers of the three departments rushed into Chu Yun's Golden Horde, although Chu Yun resisted hard, he was still captured because he was outnumbered, and the children of the Tie clan in the same account were also arrested. Soon, Qiu Yueli, who was seriously ill, and Wen Wenyi, who was serving beside her, were also dragged over. The elders counted the four sins of Chu Yun and Qiu Yueli, the first three are: women interfering in politics; repentance of marriage in the north of Shuo, so that strong reinforcements become strong enemies; The spirit wants to slaughter the tribe with iron float and put the tribe in danger. The last one is fatal, they claim that Chu Yun is not Chu Guiyu's biological son, but that Qiu Yueli was born of an affair with a slave. This was an unfair trial, Chu Yun and Qiu Yueli were gagged, there was no room for defense, and Qiu Yueli didn't even have the strength to speak at all. After deliberation, the elders decided to behead Chu Yun, and in the case of Qiu Yueli, they decided to use one of the oldest and cruelest punishments of the barbarians on her, they locked Qiu Yueli in a wooden cage and ordered the soldiers to throw stones at her and stone her to death.

Qiu Yueli, who was locked in a wooden cage, seemed to suddenly have strength, and she asked Chu Guang angrily: "I am your biological mother, are you going to kill me with your own hands now?" Alam Khan is your own brother, and you won't even spare him? Do you believe that your mother is an unchaste person? Chu Guang bowed his head in shame and remained silent. She struggled to sit upright, combed her torn hair neatly, straightened up the clothes on her body, and said, "I, Hu and Naren, are the wife of Chu Ye, the ancestor of the Shuofeng Ministry, the mother of the Great Monarch Chu Yun, and the Da Yan clan of the Shuofeng Ministry. Bow down worthy of the ancestors of heaven and earth. Even if I can't live with dignity, I will die with dignity. "At first, the soldiers of the Shuofeng Division did not dare to make a move against the Venerable Great Clan, and the stones either fell far from the target, or smashed softly on the wooden cage without the slightest strength. The elders couldn't hold their breath, they couldn't afford to continue to delay, Tie Biao might lead his troops to the rescue at any time, and if the soldiers of the Chu Clan's Shuofeng clan changed their minds, they might also be in the middle of the battle. They must execute Qiu Yueli and Chu Yun as soon as possible. The first one to make a move was actually Chu Guang, he had dreamed of the position of the king for too long, and he couldn't withstand the teasing of the three elders, and now he was already difficult to ride a tiger, so he could only rush forward. The first stone grazed the corner of Qiu Yueli's forehead, the second hit Qiu Yueli's abdomen, and then the third and fourth stones...... More stones were frantically slammed into Qiu Yueli, and more and more soldiers joined the ranks, not so much that they were stabbing "traitors", but that the perverted psychology of the destroyed nobles was stimulated to madness. The cage had long since been shattered, and all that was left was a blur of flesh and blood, but they continued to pick up the stone and smash it with all their strength, almost frantically.

Chu Yun was tied up with oil-soaked cow tendons and pushed to the ground, and Yan Zhu even stepped on Chu Yun's face with one foot, forcing him to watch his mother being stoned to death. Yan Zhu must have been so proud of his victory that he didn't notice Chu Yun's constantly tense muscles and the protruding blood vessels on his skin like a green snake. Until he heard a low, terrifying roar coming from the depths of Chu Yun's throat, it was no longer a sound that humans could make. Before everyone could react, the cow tendon cord snapped into countless pieces and flew away. Chu Yun grabbed Yan Zhu's ankle, and then there was a crisp cracking sound from his ankle. Yan Zhu pulled out his saber and slashed at Chu Yun's head, in a panic, but he didn't cut it, the sharp saber slashed at Chu Yun's left shoulder, only less than an inch deep, but it was stuck by broken bones and muscles, and he couldn't pull it out again. Chu Yun lifted Yan Zhu upside down, although the strong Yan Zhu was half a head taller than the fourteen-year-old Chu Yun, but Chu Yun mentioned him like a father picking up a child. Then Yan Zhu was thrown straight at the twenty-foot-high white silk at the entrance of the Golden Tent and nailed to it.

Chu Yun pulled out the sword on his shoulder, and the muscles on his shoulder quickly snapped together, as if he had healed in an instant. He was as fast as a bolt of lightning, cutting through anything that dared to stand in his way. He snatched the second sword, and there was no one left to stop the angry god of war. Both of his knives were curled, but the iron armor, the sword, and his body were still broken in two as neatly as artemisia grass in front of his sword. The furious Chu Yun was not human, and the legends and bloody reality of the berserker broke the will of the betrayers, and they quickly lost their resistance, fell into chaos and began to crumble.

"Celestial Samurai".

The soldiers of the Shuofeng Clan had only heard of this name in legends, and the Celestial Samurai were almost miraculous to the people of the Shuofeng Division. They were sinners, and the Heavenly Warrior proved that the accusations against Chu Yun's lineage were completely unfounded fabrications. They prostrate in fear in front of this power that surpassed the limits of human beings, although Chu Yun was still rushing to kill everyone he could see in his blood-red eyes, and some of them were constantly being killed by the furious Chu Yun, but they just prostrate on the ground and did not dare to raise their heads. Even the Iron Warriors, who had hurried to help him when they heard the news, did not dare to come near him until he heard Minnatu's voice. The voice was like a ray of sunlight breaking free from the dark clouds of gloom, opening a ray of light between heaven and earth and awakening him. Chu Yun stood on the ground in a daze, countless stumps and broken arms surrounded him like a circle, gurgling blood flowed out of the wounds on their corpses, gathered into a river, and then penetrated into the black earth among the green grass, and then outside were the rebels who were already prostrate on the ground, and then Tie Gong and his subordinates who had come to rescue him but were already kneeling on the ground. Then he saw the wound on his shoulder, saw his beloved Minnatu, and fell to the ground with a bang.

The rebellion was quelled, and Yan Zhu was nailed to death on Bai Xu; Li Qianyi died at the hands of Chu Yun, and it was almost impossible to piece his body together completely from the corpses all over the ground; Although Chao Zhe surrendered, he did not escape the fate, he was stuffed into a sack and dragged by the fastest horse through the entire territory of the Shuofeng Division. The surviving rebels were not executed because they were deceived into rebelling, but not for slavery. The new patriarchs of the three major families were quickly elected, they were all young people who had served as Chu Yun's tent attendants, they were deeply ashamed of their father's crimes, and they faithfully served the great monarch given by the gods to the Shuofeng Clan. Qiu Yueli's body was difficult to contain, and was eventually buried with a broken wooden cage and countless stones. Chu Yun miraculously recovered quickly, and he personally supervised the craftsmen to build a huge mausoleum on the grassland according to the style of the Eastern Continent, buried his mother in it, and personally named it "Ciling".

This is the third permanent large-scale building in Hanzhou after the Northern Capital City and the Cloud Extinguishing Pass, where Chu Yun often sits in silence for a day, with only Minnatu and her Sheng accompanying him. A few months later, the Iron Floating Slaughter finally started under Chu Yun's "willful thinking", and after a few months, the first batch of more than ten armors was completed. The actual combat effect was as Chu Yun expected, in front of Tiefutu, the infantry seemed so vulnerable. And even the brave and good fighting Tiefutu and the ghost bow have no way to take the iron Futu, although the Tiefutu cavalry can't catch up with the Tiefutu and the ghost bow, but it itself is like a solid rock, the knife can't cut in, and the arrow can't shoot through. Chu Yun began to select the best horses in large numbers, and selected the strongest and brave young men in the Shuofeng Division, who had strong physique and courage stronger than their bodies. After several years of accumulation, by the time of Zhou Wu's second Northern Expedition, Tiefutu only had more than 1,000 horsemen. But it was these more than 1,000 horsemen who tore through the dense formation of the mountain formation, which was known as the first defense in the Eastern Continent, at the Tiexian River. When the balance that symbolizes the situation in Kyushu is tilted to one side, it adds a weight to the other side, and this is the great cause that the Qin Heavenly Eunuchs are tirelessly engaged in. However, the structure of Kyushu's huge balance is too complex, and there are many unpredictable contingencies, and sometimes such adjustments require careful calculations and mobilization of countless weights to achieve the expected balance. Now, they realized that the weight they had dropped on the Hokuriku was a little heavier, and that a powerful weapon like the Iron Floating Massacre was still too dangerous for the balance of the situation, and they needed to give the Chinese a weapon that they could fight against, and that weapon was called the Mountain Formation. The Great Pope was reluctant to appear in front of Baili Yu in person, and this old man, who had been closely observing Bai Li Yu since Zhou Qing had not yet come to power, had quite high expectations for Bai Li Yu. He didn't want to expose his actions to Bai Li Yu, although he knew that Bai Li Yu must have guessed more or less that he must have done something behind his back, not only for the convenience of his actions in the future, but also in the hope that Bai Li Yu could slowly comprehend the true meaning of Qin Tianjian and return to Qin Tianjian by himself. In his opinion, Bai Li Yu is undoubtedly the person closest to the will of God other than him, and the one who can succeed him as the Great Pope of Qin Tianjian is not a second person except Bai Li Yu - perhaps, according to the expectations of the Great Pope, he can have higher achievements.

So, unlike the frankness of the Hokuriku peddling of the Iron Float, the Great Pope chose a less suspicious approach in the Hokuriku. After concealing his true identity, a disciple of the Qin Heavenly Prison offered advice in the state of Chu as a way to improve the equipment of heavy armor spearmen, and according to his own claims, he was raised by craftsmen after his parents died when he was a child, so he knew the art of armor forging. This improvement method is an overall improvement from armor to iron spear, and the strength of the improved heavy armor and iron spear has been greatly improved. However, this method of improvement required a large number of new guns and armor to be re-armed to re-equip the army, and this kind of high consumption was difficult for the Chu state to bear. The lord of Chu had no choice but to send this person to Tianyuan Zhou Qing. Bai Li Yu realized the identity of the person in front of him, and also realized that the high cost of replacing the equipment of the heavy armor spearmen would be devastating to Zhou Qing's treasury. But he couldn't help but accept it, because the presence of Qin Tianjian here means that they have done some tricks and tricks in the North Continent, and according to Qin Tianjian's consistent style of acting, these hands and feet must have a great impact on future wars, and they must be overcome by re-equipping heavy armor spearmen. This is the Qintian Guardian, although you know that they have bad intentions, you can only obediently listen to them, because they have already forced you into a dead end where you will perish if you disobey them.

The two evils of both worlds, the gambler character in Baili Yu wins, he chooses to equip the heavy armor spearmen, and he decides to equip the heavy armor spearmen that are nearly double their capacity, he thinks that by doing so, he will be able to jump out of the trap of the Great Pope. But what he didn't expect was that the Great Pope had already calculated his character, and on his chessboard, every move of Baili Yu did not exceed his expectations. Chu Yun, who possessed the Iron Floating Massage, firmly believed that he already had the weapons to deal with the Eastern Continent, and he began to think about recovering the ports and checkpoints built by the Zhou Dynasty in the Northern Continent, and putting these things in the hands of the enemy, undoubtedly hanging a sharp sword over his head, which could fall down and cut off his neck at any time. At the same time, his targets also included some of the tribes that had surrendered to Zhou Qing during the First Northern Expedition, and it was time for them to accept punishment for their betrayal. He needed to use these tribes to warn the other tribes, and he needed them to follow him closely, like a finger, because young Chu Yun had a great dream in his heart, and he wanted to realize a dream that no one had ever realized before, and he wanted to incorporate the Eastern Continent, the hometown of his mother and his wife, into the territory of the Grassland Empire.

Chu Yun deliberately concealed the existence of the Iron Floating Slaughter, in fact, he recovered all the ports and checkpoints without even using the Iron Floating Slaughter and the Ghost Bow, he burned the port and the captured ships, and completely demolished the captured checkpoints. He then exterminated all the tribes that had surrendered to Zhou Qing, confiscating their people as slaves and rewarding them to meritorious officers in the tribe. He called the expedition "Southern Hunting". Then Chu Yun convened the Kulig Assembly, and he told the lords of the rest of the tribes about his dream without concealment, and tied all the tribes present to his chariot, and no one dared to resist him on the grassland.

Legend has it that on the way to the Qingfu Plains to defeat the betrayed tribe, the soldiers of the Shuofeng tribe went to the river to drink horses, and were dragged into the water by something, along with people and horses, only to see the water roll for a while, and then calm again, as if nothing had happened. The soldiers of the Shuofeng Department were very frightened, and they had the audacity to touch the river to identify it carefully, only to find that there was a monster in the river, it was hiding in the water, only exposing its two nostrils, like a piece of dead wood, and it could not be found at all without careful identification. They believed that this was a revelation from the god of Pantar, and that it would be ominous if they forcibly sent troops. Chu Yun said that I am an envoy sent to Kyushu by the Pantar Heavenly God, and my will is the will of the Pantar Heavenly God. Chu Yun nailed a wooden stake by the river, tied a horse to the stake, and then cut the horse, and the horse's blood flowed into the river, leading out a huge monster, its body was more than fifty feet long, its whole body was covered with hard armor, dragging a long tail full of sharp horns, its mouth was seven feet long, and when it opened, it revealed countless jagged fangs, and the roar was very loud, and the sound spread for miles. It grabbed the horse firmly and dragged it back into the river. Chu Yun held a huge heavy sword to meet him, the battle between Chu Yun and the monster lasted for a long time, from the river to the river, the monster's skin was hard and abnormal, and the heavy sword could only leave a very shallow trace. But Chu Yun was already able to skillfully control his Heavenly Warrior at this time, and created a sword technique for it, and called it the "Great Sword", which was a sword technique that surpassed the limits of human physical strength, and only a samurai who had inherited the Heavenly Warrior could use it. Chu Yun used his great sword, and finally split a one-foot-long crack in the monster's neck, but the heavy sword was broken. Chu Yun inserted his hand into the monster's wound and tore the monster in half.

The soldiers of the Wind Tribes saw that the water had calmed down and the river was stained with blood, and they didn't know if it was the blood of the monster or the blood of their young lord. Then a figure covered in blood came out of the river, and Chu Yun held the monster's head high and threw it on the riverbank. Cheers erupted from the riverbank, and the soldiers of the Shuofeng Division finally believed that the person in front of them was the messenger sent to Kyushu by the Pantar Celestial God, and the god of war who could lead them to sweep away everything in the world. The soldiers of the Shuofeng Department dragged the monster's body out of the river, and after the great witch Sayan Zhen identified it, he said that this monster was called Kui, the overlord of the sea, and it may have strayed into the mouth of the river and went up the river to get here. Chu Yun peeled off Kui's skin with his own hands, sawed off the horns on the monster's tail and rewarded it to his generals, he swallowed Kui's still beating heart alive, boiled its meat for all the soldiers to eat, and used dozens of cauldrons, thinking that in this way they would be able to gain the power of this monster. Chu Yun cast a huge bronze war drum that was one person high, and made the drum surface with a kui skin, and Chu Yun personally beat the drum during the battle, which was heard for several miles, urging the enemy to be afraid. The soldiers prostrate themselves in front of the war drums to pay the highest respect to their Maharaja, and they called Chu Yun King Chindahan, which means "bronze war drum".

This war drum witnessed Chu Yun's journey for the next thirty years, and he later passed it on to his children and grandchildren.

Kui is actually a kind of sea crocodile, and it is the largest one, mainly distributed along the coast of Chuyan Sea and the South Vast Ocean, and its temperament is fierce and fierce. The adult body length is generally between 35 feet and 45 feet, and the weight is generally about 20,000 catties, and the largest can grow to about 50 feet, and the weight also reaches an astonishing 30,000 catties. The average lifespan of Kui is about 150 years old, and although it breathes with its lungs, it can dive in the water for a long time.

Kui is oviparous, pregnant Kui will go up the river, look for a quiet river bank with no people to nest and lay eggs, and after laying eggs, they will stay around the eggs to protect them, at this time they will attack all creatures that come close to their nest. But there has never been a record of them appearing in the cold northern Wire River, and it is extremely rare to see a fifty-foot-long Kui, so it's no wonder that the people of the Shuofeng Department don't know each other. Kui, who live in the coastal waters, can be said to have almost no natural predators, and their predators range from fish and shrimp to cattle and horses drinking water in the river, and some people even claim to have seen Kui attack a baby elephant bathing in the river. Therefore, some people say that Kui is a well-deserved king of the sea.

The Tiefutu Forging Armor originally originated from Heluo's heavy rat cavalry overall armor forging technology, and the rise and fall of this technology was closely related to the tactical evolution of Heluo. In the early days of Kyushu's history, due to the leading advantage of equipment, the strategies and tactics of the Terran and the Wu Clan were imitated by Heluo, and as the first race to adopt infantry and cavalry coordination, Heluo had carried this tactic to the extreme in all aspects. The Iron Floating Armor was one of the achievements that was created to adapt to this tactic.

This technique continued until they discovered that the superiority of their equipment could no longer compensate for their innate physical superiority over humans. After the "Eighteen Years of Leizhou" forced the Wu Clan to abandon the field infantry, Heluo also had to abandon the classic tactics they had used for thousands of years after the 4,800-year-old Hualuo War. Around 4,800 years ago, the Zhou Dynasty waved its army directly at Wan and Yue, breaking the peace that the Chinese and craftsmen had maintained for nearly 800 years. Unaware of the unsuspecting Chinese who had spent generations researching their armaments, it was not until the cavalry of the Zhou Dynasty rushed to their capital that they discovered that their bows and arrows could no longer penetrate the iron armor of the Chinese cavalry. The glorious Heluo Kingdom was crushed by the Zhou Dynasty's army in less than a month, and even the retreat from the southeastern tip of the kingdom to Beibi Mountain was blocked by roundabout cavalry.

Three million remnants of the river gathered in Suizhong, most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, and the regular army with combat effectiveness had almost been killed and wounded in the previous battle, and the surviving tribes of Aloka and Suxing held a supreme council and decided to break through in the direction of the wild goose return lake in Leiyan Mountain. The fearless Heluo went forward one after another, and broke through the defense line of the Zhou army with flesh and blood. The cavalry of the Zhou army and the light infantry in carriages caught up with the craftsmen at the Guinu River, and Heluo had to send the entire unarmed tribe to block the pursuit of the Zhou army with flesh and blood, and more than a million civilians were slaughtered. The remnants of the people eventually entered Thunder Eye Mountain, regrouped and joined the Thunder Eye Mountain River Tribe.

The surviving Fuhuan reflects and repents of the "migration from the true God", and Aloka's status is re-established. At the emergency meeting of the Aloka, the participants realized that the equipment advantage that Heluo had maintained for thousands of years had been lost, and the size disadvantage was unprecedented. They had to abandon the infantry and cavalry coordination tactics that were originally consistent with the Chinese, and instead developed tactics centered on the pursuit of long-range attacks and large combat machines with large coverage. Since these large combat machines were almost completely immobile, the dominant tactical thinking of the survivors shifted from offensive to defensive. In the ensuing "Battle of the Wild Goose Returning to Lake", the Zhou army, which pursued the victory and hoped to wipe out Heluo in one fell swoop, became the first victim of this tactic. After this battle, Heluo retreated to the underground of the mountains, and the Zhou army was unable to attack.

Due to the change in tactics, the strategic position of the rat cavalry has declined sharply, and it has been transformed from the main battle unit into a scout force, and the outdated technique of "Iron Floating Massacre" has no value to them. Objectively speaking, the rat riding is very strong for the petite Heluo, so it can be equipped with double-layer sandsteel forging rat armor, and then carry a Heluo cavalry equipped with matching armor, and this is something that Donglu horses can't do, so this technology also lacks value for the Chinese; But for the barbarians with strong horses, the technology was tailor-made for them. The only city on the grassland of Hanzhou is the northern capital built by King Xun hundreds of years ago. Legend has it that when the city was built, the astrological master of the Wu Clan, Gu Fengchen, traveled all the way from the city-state of Stark on Leizhou to calculate the fate of the northern capital for his friend and benefactor, King Sun. It is said that King Xun built a large stone foundation with a length and width of 1,000 steps, and the sage commanded 400 teenagers to move the calculation plan together, and the calculation lasted for three months. However, Gu Fengchen didn't calculate anything, and the sky above the northern capital was pitch black, and not a single star passed by. Later generations have legends that hanging over the northern capital is an invisible star - Gu Xuan. The facts seem to prove the proverb of the ancient Fengchen, and seven years later, the head of King Xun was hung on the gate of the northern capital. After that, the various ministries alternately entered the northern capital, or six or seven years, or decades, and they were always driven out by other departments. The northern capital is called a city, and in fact, the only thing that really exists is its walls. Because of the frequent alternation of the hands of the various tribes, one tribe often moved tents and horses into the formation, and soon after settling down, they were defeated by the other tribes, and when they retreated, they took all the supplies with them, so that there was no fixed structure in the city except for the abutment where the golden tent was placed. Although the northern capital has changed hands several times, there are not many cases where the city has actually been besieged.
