Chapter 25: The Land of Exile

The Northern Demon Plain, located in the sea north of Moya, has a harsh climate and is inaccessible, most of the area is covered with ice all year round, and the living environment is extremely difficult. Some people say it's a mysterious island, some say it's a mysterious continent, what is it? But it has not been confirmed. Because it has never been conquered by humans.

It's also a famous place of exile for Kasha! Because in addition to the wide sea area separated from the continent of Moya, there are many ferocious whales and sharks in the icy waters, so the chances of the island's prisoners successfully escaping are almost zero.

During the millennia of the Kashay dynasty's rule, more than 100,000 people were exiled here. Among these are murderers, robber leaders, sectarian heretics, and criminals of various nations...... And so on, but without exception they are all felons who have committed many crimes.

The vast majority of the prisoners in the Northern Demon Plains live on the southern shore. Here the strait is dark, the coast is steep, and the beach is isolated from the beach.

The South Shore Wharf is the only way for the Northern Devils to communicate with the outside world, and it is guarded by the resting fort, which is famous throughout Moyahe, known as the "Gate of Hell".

The Fort of Rest was built by the Kasha authorities, and initially consisted of only a dock and a few barracks. After continuous expansion, it is now a huge castle complex with a length of 5 miles and a width of 5 miles. The material used in the whole building is black basalt, which is not only strong and wear-resistant, but also not easy to corrode. From a distance, it looks like a black beast lying prone on the shore.

In order to ensure the absolute safety of the fort, Kashya specially dispatched 5,000 elite soldiers from various countries to station here, and changed guards every three years.

The early morning in the Northern Demon Plains was bitterly cold. Jiang Lang wore thick leather armor and came to the training ground of the garrison of Fort of Rest, looking at the soldiers who were practicing hard in the field, he yawned lazily, "I finally have to leave this ghost place!" "In two months, he will complete the task of garrisoning the Northern Demon Plains and can go home smoothly. Moreover, in the last letter to his family, it was said that Emperor Beiyan was also very satisfied with his performance in the Northern Demon Plain, and planned to give him a promotion and reward when he returned.

Jiang Lang just turned 30 this year and is the Duke of Beiyan and the son of Field Marshal Jiang Hengjin. Now he is a young marshal-level general, and if he is promoted to the division commander level, "30-year-old division commander?" It's rare in Beiyan! Tsk, he's so handsome, how can he be seen by the girls? Although I am a dedicated person, I have to take good care of the flowers and plants that are sent to my mouth! Hahaha! Jiang Lang, who was immersed in fantasy, was in a very good mood, and he couldn't wait for the two-month period to pass in a flash, so he could immediately return to his hometown Sun City and visit his confidantes.

Although the Northern Demon Plain is remote, the environment is treacherous, and the beasts are infested, it is also a natural treasure. All kinds of precious and rare mineral deposits, furs and medicinal materials are enough to make people salivate and even fall into madness. Some powerful chambers of commerce quickly sniffed out the business opportunities, and they cooperated with the local garrison, taking advantage of the opportunity to deliver supplies every month, bringing a large number of daily necessities here, selling them to local exiles at a high price, and then buying local products at a low price and reselling them to the Moya continent to make huge profits.

Therefore, the garrison of the Northern Demon Plain has always been rich in oil and water, but Jiang Lang is a typical master who "doesn't love money and loves beauty", in his opinion, the monthly income is far less comfortable than the red Yicui! And the gloomy resting castle also made him very uncomfortable.

"Your Excellency!" Jiang Lang, who was fantasizing about returning to China to enjoy the flowers, was suddenly interrupted by someone, unhappy, and turned his head to see that it was his own guard with a person who came in a hurry.

"Jiang Zuo, why are you here?" Seeing that the person who came was actually his father's personal guard Jiang Zuo, Jiang Lang's eyes couldn't help but stare at him.

"See the general! The marshal's letters and sigils are here, please take a look at them! Jiang Zuo said respectfully after saluting.

"How many times have I said that you have to be calm when you encounter problems! Look at the way you fuss, what a system! Jiang Lang pretended to scold the guard before taking the letter casually.

"Huh? It's a red feather book! Before the guard could reply, he himself screamed. The Red Feather Book is the highest-ranking letter of the Northern Yan military. Descending are the black feathers, yellow feathers, and white feathers. It is known as the white feather with the clouds, the yellow feather appears with the sun, the ink feather is like thunder, and the red feather is like fire. "Red Feather" represents 100,000 urgency!

"Could it be that the emperor died? Phew! Sister, don't blame me! "Jiang Lang has been in the army for more than ten years, and it is the first time he has seen the Red Feather Book. So his first reaction was that the emperor was dead, and then he thought that his sister Jiang Ya had only married Emperor Beiyan as a concubine three years ago.

It's okay to curse my brother-in-law to "hang up", my sister will be angry if she knows.

He opened the letter and looked at it intently, and his face couldn't help but change greatly. There were only a few words in the letter, but it was like a stormy sea, so that he couldn't speak for a long time, "The Sang tribe is opposed, the West Island, the Federation, and Assyria have raised troops, and our situation is worrying, return quickly!" ”

"The San rebellion? How can it be! Jiang Lang muttered in disbelief, but his father's handsome seal and talisman would not lie.

He muttered and walked into the exercise ground on the other side, and then hurriedly boarded the general platform, his face sank like water, and shouted loudly: "Come on, beat the drums and gather the generals!" ”

Fort of Rest Wharf.

With the arrival of the fleet, a large number of traders and porters gathered on the dock, and Gide and the others also greeted Sannan and his party, and began the process of loading and unloading goods and counting and settlement, and there was a lot of noise all around.

"Young master, we've finally arrived, great!" The little dazed got off the boat, her face was a little pale and a little haggard, but she jumped and jumped with excitement, and she didn't have the slightest consciousness of being a "prisoner". Along the way, she was always sick because of seasickness, so she secretly hated herself for not being angry and not taking good care of the young master. Now that she has two feet on the ground, she feels like she has been reborn.

"Ahem, be careful, be careful for people to see." Sang Nan, who was hidden in the line of prisoners, scolded in a low voice. Only then did the little confusion realize his new identity, and he stuck out his tongue in fright, revealing a pitiful appearance again.

Mei Dongen and dozens of other girls stood beside them, looking at the strange elf appearance of the little confused, they couldn't help but smile, and they all covered their mouths and laughed. These girls have delicate facial features, and they are young and lovely at the age of youth, and this smile is like a hundred flowers blooming, and the people who pass by around them are full of blood and blood.

"What an exaggeration!" Seeing Xiao Mi's contrived expression, Sang Nan shook his head in confusion.

The road was calm, the diet was sufficient, and there were few activities, so instead of the appearance of a yellow-muscled and listless prisoner, everyone was full of complexion, full of red light, looking around one by one, as if they were going out to play, and they couldn't laugh or cry when they saw Sangnan. So this strange procession, under the "watch" of the detained officers and soldiers, walked along the long passage towards the gate of the fort of rest.

Kasha's exile system was very strict, stipulating that "the distribution of prisoners must be clearly managed by a separate register, and after being sent to the distribution center, they must obtain the copy of the distribution center and return it to the original match." However, the geographical location of the Northern Demon Plain is special, so the management of the outcasts in the distribution center is relatively loose. After the prisoner arrives, the detainees are usually handed over by the officers and soldiers who have been released from custody, and then the prisoners are escorted to the boarding house to wait for release.

"Crunch~" Just when Sang Nan and the others were about to enter the castle from the side gate on the left, the central gate of the castle suddenly opened, and then a group of neat and tidy armored soldiers walked out. These soldiers were strong, black-clad and black-armoured, with solemn expressions. On the black horse in front of him, there was a young man with broad shoulders and a rebellious expression, who was Jiang Lang who had left to return home.

Seeing Sang Nan and his party, the guard named Jiang Zuo suddenly rushed to Jiang Lang's side, quietly pointed at Sang Nan and the others, and muttered a few words in a low voice.

"Stop!" Jiang Lang's eyes flashed, he waved his hand to stop the team, and then stared at Li Yuanru and Gao Ran and the others with cold eyes, and asked in a slightly low voice: "Where are you officers and soldiers, and why are all the children released?" ”

He had been in the army for many years, his eyes were vicious, and he found that these people on the other side were burly and fierce, and they were not inferior to the Lieyang Army under his command, and they were by no means any officers and soldiers who were released from custody.

"My lord, we are Prince Sauron's men. The three prisoners released were Zhao Sikun, Lin Yuanshan and Gray, the criminals of the Free Federation! This is the text, please take a look! Gao Ran stood up and handed over the text unhurriedly. The relevant formalities and documents of their group were all handled by Jason in secret, so naturally there was no problem.

"In this case, everyone should hurry up and enter the fort, go through the delivery procedures as soon as possible, and rest as soon as possible!" Jiang Lang took the text and looked at it, and saw that there was no problem, so his tone was a little slower: "Everyone has worked hard all the way, so I will rest in the castle tonight!" I still have something to do, and I'm out of company! ”

Gao Ran breathed a sigh of relief, saluted Jiang Lang, and prepared to return to the team.

"Wait!" Gao Ran had just taken a few steps when he heard Jiang Lang stop him behind him.

"I wonder what else the adults command?" Gao Ran asked respectfully.

"I heard you've had an argument with someone on the boat?" Jiang Lang asked in a mocking tone with a sneer.

"It's just a small friction, not worth mentioning, so as not to delay the adult's trip!" Gao Ran couldn't wait to make a wave at this time and shoot the verbose ghost in front of him directly.

"Prince Sauron's men are really talented!" Jiang Lang's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was teasing: "But I'm curious, what kind of prisoners are worth his fight?" ”

Li Yuanru and the others were nervous! I can't help but be secretly vigilant, ready to do it at any time. Although the number of opponents is more than 1,000, the terrain of the pier is narrow and long, which is more conducive to them to take advantage of the chaos to sneak attack.

Jiang Lang's soldiers had been on the battlefield for a long time, and they felt the hostility of the other party, so they quickly adjusted their formation and made preparations for attack.

The two sides were tense and on the verge of breaking out, and a strong murderous aura quickly spread in the pier passage. The surrounding pedestrians noticed the solemnity of the atmosphere at the scene, and they couldn't help but panic and took a detour.

"Ha~ha~" Jiang Lang suddenly laughed, breaking the deadlock between the two sides. Ignoring the guards' dissuasion, he turned over and dismounted and walked to Gao Ran, and said in a low voice: "I know who you are, take care!" ”

Gao Ran's body stiffened, as if he had been struck by lightning.
