In the north, at the junction of the border of the Tang Dynasty and the Turkic border, there is a city called the Red Blood City.

"Master, what is the origin of this Red Blood City. Why is there no name and landmark on this "Tang Dynasty Official Map". ”

Mu Ziyu held a map in his hand and asked Shizun Ziyun curiously. The two of them were talking and jumping through the mountains and forests.

This "Official Map of the Tang Dynasty" was compiled by the imperial court after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty. It records the major cities and prefectures in the Tang Dynasty, and even some Jianghumen stationing places, etc.

After all, a martial artist is strong, and with a little strength, he can do it. It is not very difficult to walk thousands of miles of rivers and mountains and draw such a picture of "Tang Dynasty Officials".

"Because, it doesn't belong to Datang, or even to any country."

Ziyun said to Mu Ziyu while jumping.

"Well, what do you say?"

Mu Ziyu was very curious, it was not the territory of the Tang Dynasty, nor the territory of the Turks. So what kind of existence is this Red Blood City?

It just so happened that there was a lake in front of it.

"Brush!"

The figures of the two fell to the side of the lake, Ziyun looked at Mu Ziyu and said.

"Just take a break, as a teacher, I'll tell you about this Red Blood City."

Mu Ziyu nodded, and the two sat on the boulder next to the lake. While meditating, Ziyun said to Mu Ziyu.

"This Red Blood City has actually only been established for more than ten years."

"And the nature of Red Blood City is actually the same as that of Tiance Mansion. They are an army! ”

Mu Ziyu was stunned for a moment, he still thought that Red Blood City was someone's private city. But I didn't expect that this Red Blood City was actually built by an army.

Ziyun's eyes were full of remembrance and said.

"Since ancient times, martial artists have always violated the ban with martial arts."

Mu Ziyu nodded, it is true, martial artists are all arrogant people. Some powerful warriors will inevitably choose to ignore the imperial court because of their strong strength.

Therefore, there is a saying that it is forbidden to violate the law by force.

"Since Datang can create the Tiance Mansion, it will be used to target the forces of the rivers and lakes. Naturally, the Sui Dynasty will also have its own department for the forces of the rivers and lakes. ”

Mu Ziyu was stunned.

"Master, could it be said that the Red Blood Army that established the Red Blood City was the original Sui Dynasty Tiance Mansion?"

Ziyun nodded.

"That's right, since the creation of the Sui Dynasty, this Red Blood Army has been formed. From the beginning of recruiting talents from the rivers and lakes, to the end of its own lineage, it is extremely strong, but it took just a dozen years. ”

"But it's a pity that after the death of Emperor Wen of Sui, the biggest support of the Red Blood Army is gone. Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty didn't like the Red Blood Army very much, and in the end, at the instigation of Yu Wenhua, he chose to disband the Red Blood Army and re-form an army against the rivers and lakes. ”

Mu Ziyu nodded.

Ziyun continued: "However, because the commander of the Red Blood Army at that time begged Emperor Yang of Sui to die, he finally exempted the dissolution of the Red Blood Army. ”

Instead, the Red Blood Army was sent to the northern frontier. From then on, the Red Blood Army seemed to have become an outcast of the Sui Dynasty, with no soldiers, no food, and no money. ”

Mu Ziyu suddenly realized, so it was, I didn't expect that this red-blooded army would actually come from like this.

It's just that Mu Ziyu is curious, the royal family of the Tang Dynasty, whether it is Li Yuan or the current Li Shimin, is not a stupid fool. Can't they see the strength of the Red Blood Army?

Didn't Datang recruit the Red Blood Army?

Mu Ziyu asked his own questions.

Master Ziyun shook his head.

"The Tang Dynasty is naturally not stupid, the two Tang Emperors have recruited the Red Blood Army."

"But even if Datang offers good conditions, they are not willing to betray Dasui. The end result was that the Red Blood Army built a Red Blood City at the junction of the two countries. ”

"Straddle the middle of the two countries and always stick to the Central Plains."

Mu Ziyu was silent, this red-blooded army is good. Even if the Great Sui was destroyed, and even if they became outcasts, they never thought of betrayal.

"But at least the current emperor won't be the kind of person who is willing to keep hidden dangers, right?"

Although Mu Ziyu had only met Li Shimin once, through a short exchange, he could also feel that Li Shimin was the kind of king with an extremely strong desire to control.

Would he be willing to keep an army comparable to Tiance Mansion in the previous dynasty?

Master Ziyun looked at the lake.

"That's natural, whether it's the current emperor or the civil and military courtiers of the Tang Dynasty, none of them want to completely eradicate the hidden dangers of the Red Blood Army."

"But, they can't, and they don't dare!"

Mu Ziyu was curious, why is this?

Shizun continued.

"Back then, the world was in turmoil, and the Sui Dynasty was about to fall. The world's heroes, and even many Jianghu sects, all fought together against Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty. ”

"At that time, the Sui court actually thought of the Red Blood Army. After all, if you want to deal with those Jianghu sects, only the Red Blood Army can suppress them. ”

"But, in the end, the Red Blood Army resisted! In the face of Yang Guang's holy decree at that time, they chose to resist the decree. ”

The more Mu Ziyu listened, the more he sank, and it was really turbulent and full of contradictions. Because judging from the refusal of the Red Blood Army to be recruited by the Tang Dynasty, they were loyal to the Sui Dynasty.

But why, in the face of a domestic crisis, would they resist and disrespect?

Master Ziyun continued.

"That's because, at that time, because of the chaos in the world, the Turks had an opportunity to take advantage of it, and they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to attack the Central Plains."

At that time, the Sui Dynasty was too busy to take care of itself, so it was naturally too lazy to care about the life and death of the people in this Xinjiang. Therefore, he insisted on transferring back the Red Blood Army to suppress the rivers and lakes of the Central Plains. ”

"And the Red Blood Army, for the sake of the people of the northern land, chose to resist the order. During that time, the whole world regarded the Red Blood Army as a traitor. ”

"But I didn't know that when the country was fighting for the world, the Red Blood Army was on the frontier. Resisted how many martial arts masters from the Turks. ”

"30,000 red blood, fight to 10,000!"

Mu Ziyu was silent, is this the Red Blood Army? It's no wonder that some of them can become old friends of Shizun Ziyun, they are really good.

But that's not all.

Master Ziyun continued.

"Then time passed, that is, when you were on the Heavenly Dao Sect Mountain, there was another incident on this river and lake."

"In the ninth year of Wude, the Xuanwumen Rebellion broke out, and His Majesty successfully ascended the throne immediately. But at the same time, it also aroused the coveting of the Turkic Khan, the Jieli Khan. ”

"He raised 100,000 troops, invaded the Central Plains, and fought all the way to Chang'an City."

"Since ancient times, the power of the imperial court has been unrelated to the forces of the rivers and lakes. Along with the invasion, there are actually martial arts sects in the Turkic territory. ”

"Seven days! In the seven days that the Tang Tiance Mansion came, 10,000 red blood resisted the entire Turkic Martial Arts for seven days! In that battle, the Red Blood Army finally had more than 2,000 men, women, and children left! ”

Mu Ziyu was silent, you can imagine how tragic this is. Even if the country is gone, even if it becomes an abandoned child. But they still stand at the gateway of this land to protect the safety of the Central Plains.

No wonder Shizun said that Datang didn't dare to do anything to Red Blood. Because Red Blood not only protected the Central Plains many times, but even saved the Tang Dynasty.

However, it's really a bit embarrassing. The Red Blood Army is of the same nature as the Heavenly Ce Mansion. But the Red Blood Army was established I don't know how many years earlier. At its peak, there were 30,000 people!

But what about now? There were only about 2,000 men, women, and children left.

Compared with the rising star Tiance Mansion, I don't know how much less.
