Chapter 682: Tide

The boy continued: "It's just a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. What the enemy really wants to take is the Metropolitan Protectorate. I'm afraid ......," he said, pointing to the Metropolitan Protectorate, "the first few outposts have fallen into the hands of the enemy, temporarily cutting off the communication between the guard post and the Metropolitan Protectorate.

Even if it is a temporary interruption, if you can delay it for a moment longer, the possibility of taking the capital will become greater! ”

As the boy said, when the guards arrived at the Metropolitan Palace, there was a fierce battle. Surprisingly, the enemy did not seem to have any advantage. The entrenched people cheered when they saw reinforcements join.

Su Lie raised his fist high and gave the order to charge. The guards poured in like a tidal wave.

The boy was keenly looking for an opportunity in battle. He was bent on taking the first credit, which was his only hope of enduring loneliness at the Great Wall. His judgment was confirmed as soon as they were encountered, and they were all soldiers in the name of horse thieves, both well-trained and resolute and cruel. If you want to subdue them, you will capture the thief and the king first. He calmly observes the movements of the thieves, looking for the mysterious commander. But a crimson figure stood in front of him, as bright as fire, someone he had never seen before, and the badge on his uniform showed the identity of the guards.

There was an inexplicable silence in the air around them, and even the sound of killing was dimmed.

"The ...... of the Great Wall A traitor? Just right. ”

The boy struck with his sword. The two fought in silence for several rounds, and the boy caught the flaw and shouted that he wanted to win with a sword.

The man turned sideways and pushed him away, and suddenly the boy felt the fear of death passing by, and the cold blade sliced through the air, almost tearing his throat. The "traitor" saved him!

"If you want to live, follow me." A chilling voice...... Woman?

When he raised his sword again, the situation changed to two against one. The enemy leader also had no intention of fighting, and the shadow-like figure climbed down the high wall and retreated with his subordinates.

"Who is that? So he commanded the attack? ”

"Or else? Do you really think my sister is a traitor? ”

"With such a small number of people, you dare to covet the Protectorate?" The boy sensed the man's madness. Even though the walls of the Metropolitan Palace are not as high as the Great Wall, they have been operated for several generations, and they are very strong.

"Poor man. People who don't have a hometown. The crimson figure said. ...... without territory King. ”

The boy's chest was struck like lightning, and he wanted to ask a question, but he tried his best to suppress it in his throat. He shouldn't have asked too much. He is not a person who has lost his home and hometown. I could only hear the melodious song hummed by the woman in the distance as the pace faded away:

"Hou Feihou, Wang Feiwang, thousands of horses ride away from Beimang."

The first credit for the great victory of the guards should have gone to the crimson woman who warned the Metropolitan Protectorate in advance so that the enemy's tricks did not succeed. However, she only silently returned to the city defense team, and the boy was promoted to squad leader because of his wisdom to see through the enemy's movements.

"Sir, are you still suspicious of her?" The young man got the military feats he wanted, but there seemed to be no joy in his heart.

"No, I trust her." Su Lie said lightly. "Those who have guarded the Great Wall together are all comrades-in-arms. It's just better for her. ”

The boy didn't know what "good" meant. But everyone trusts her. Otherwise, if there is no high official position, how can the soldiers of the Metropolitan Protectorate be mobilized at the first warning.

"The leader of the enemy knows the capital very well, but he does not hesitate to hit the stone with an egg, which is incomprehensible."

"Ever heard of it? The Togo Mansion was built on the ruins of an old castle. ”

"It's called Drift City, also known as Lanling City."

The chief hesitated. "There is a rumor among the captives that King Kinteong deliberately assigned the once ruined castle that now belonged to the Imperial Protectorate to the clan he was jealous of. No matter how hard he works and how he makes a contribution, as long as he can't recapture the Protectorate, he will always have no king of territory and no family. But...... Although it deserves sympathy," Su Lie said, "how can we let him get his wish?" The Great Wall stands and we live. The Great Wall fell, and we died. The Metropolitan Protectorate is also the outpost and arm of the Great Wall. ”

As it was, the boy was very surprised, but he quickly lowered his head to hide his emotions. It turns out that happiness is different, and loneliness is always similar.

The campfire was lit at night, warm and bright. Pass after pass, like the backbone of a fire dragon holding up the earth. It is as if people have forgotten the pain of the day and enjoy the peace of the moment.

Away from the crowd, the boy climbed to the roof of the corner tower, and looked at the land for which he was fighting for his life with fascination, the trumpets and cheers still vivid, scorching and sincere. The land on the banks of the Great Wall is so wide that it reaches the sky, as if even the starry sky can be embraced. The boy remembered the joy of his grandfather when he took him from his father's hand and held him high, and could not help silently reciting the words that lingered in his ears:

"My family, my country, my land and my people."

It's what it's like to have a home. It's what it's like to have a hometown. Will I be able to have them again for the rest of my life?

"Poor man. People who don't have a hometown. …… ...... without territory King. ”

Who is that talking about? Was it the enemy leader who painstakingly planned a surprise attack to seize control of the Metropolitan Protectorate, but left in disgrace, or was it himself?

"Wang Fei Wang, Hou Fei Hou, thousands of rides to Beimang."

Suddenly, a burning pain enveloped him, a mysterious mark that scorched his skin and hurt his bone marrow. In the torment of a mixture of memories and dreams, two paths spread out in front of him. A road is shining with golden light, but it leads to an endless abyss. A bumpy road, but it leads to ...... Changan.

Chang'an, the real home, the real hometown.

This is the Great Wall, and after all, I am just a foreigner.

The young man seemed to see Fang Shi's bewitching face appear in front of him. His phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he bent down gracefully, staring at his painful self, and the terrible words lingered in his ears.

"You have lost Chang'an City, and I have also lost my beloved. Why don't you help me regain this beloved thing, and I'll help you regain Chang'an City, how about it? ”

As a shrine maiden of nature, Nakoruru listens to the sounds of nature. However, the wind sent bad news one after another. The creatures of blood that floated in the ocean made the souls of nature cry out in agony. It was a fugitive named Xu Fu, who quietly came to the capital of Fuso. The elixir of life he offered bewitched the nobles, and one by one, those who sought immortality became the Blood.

This mystery changed the fate of scholars, and only this unknown person saw through the true face of those in power: it turned out that superintelligent beings can also weaken and grow old; It turns out that superintelligent beings also fear death and yearn for eternal life; It turns out that the superintelligent body that has existed for such a long time is not immortal.
