Chapter 1 - The Gathering in the Sunny City (Part I)

PS: This chapter is written here, which means that now the sixth volume of "The Mystery of Leaving the Country" is officially over, and in this volume, I mainly write about the internal strife on the Xuanling Continent, the sister continent of the Demon Spirit Continent, of course, these are not completely over. After all, there are still countless secrets that have not been solved whether it is leaving the country or the Xuanling Continent, but the Xuanling Continent is indeed a crucial existence for the Demon Spirit Continent, and the main thing mentioned in the next volume of "Continental Disputes" is about the relationship between the Demon Spirit Continent and the Xuanling Continent, including the confrontation and tilting between the four forces of the country and the royal Chen family, which will involve more power and conspiracy. Of course, there is also a part of this is the internal problems of the Qi country, through the first few chapters of this volume, I will tell this story clearly, and then you can read it slowly, believe me, the situation will be more exciting! I will work hard, and strive to write the most exciting part of this story in the last four volumes! Please read and click more, give me some valuable experience and suggestions, thank you for your support! Meteor is here to thank you!

From a distance, swirling in the clouds and mist is a clear and foggy distant mountain, this mountain is dozens of miles away, and the continuous passage through this mountain range is not somewhere else, it is the south of the most extensive Weiku Plain on the Xuanling Continent, through the south of the Weiku Plain, you can enter the southernmost county of the Xuanling Continent to govern Yangcheng, Yangcheng is still controlled by the country at this moment, Chen Xinyu's henchman Su Yao led 10,000 elite troops to garrison here. In the recently concluded civil war, Su Yao's 10,000 troops did not go north to participate in the war, on the contrary, Chen Xinyu also deliberately added 5,000 troops to help him garrison Yangcheng together. In this way, Yangcheng's originally solid defense became as stable as an iron bucket.

However, even after learning the news of the defeat and retreat of the southern army, Su Yao still did not dare to rashly send the army to the north to help, and before that, Chen Xinyu had given him a crucial task. At present, the foreign forces on both sides, the forces from both the feudal state and the Qi country on the Demon Spirit Continent, are still in a confrontation situation. The armies of these two sides did not distinguish between victory and defeat, but one was stationed in Beijue County, which was four hundred miles away from Yangcheng, and the other was stationed in Yinchen County, which was seven hundred miles away from Yangcheng. Although there were small-scale military contacts between the two sides, these were trivial matters and did not hurt the fundamentals of the armed forces. So, under Chen Xinyu's reminder, Su Yao really didn't dare to rashly send the army north to help.

However, in the past few days, Su Yao has heard a lot of news about the war situation in the north, although he is not sure because Chen Xinyu has no news to pass on to him now. And now because the army at hand is relatively tight, there is no news of sending spies to the north to reconnoiter the north. But the merchants from the north brought back a pretty good news for Su Yao. The news of the defeat of the southern army in the north has caused the situation on the entire Xuanling Continent to enter a fairly stable situation, and he has left the country to negotiate with the royal Chen family, which also shows that he Su Yao does not need to continue to be frightened now, worried that the army of the imperial Chen family will attack him.

Even so, Su Yao is still worried about his southern affairs now, and neither the Qi State nor the Feng State in the south are ready to withdraw their troops now. Although the armies of the two sides have not yet launched a large-scale head-to-head confrontation at this moment, this is a game of tens of thousands of horses after all, and Su Yao really does not dare to take such a risk.

However, even so, he now only has 15,000 troops in his hands, and it is very unrealistic for him to directly send this army south. Every time he thought of this, Su Yao's heart really couldn't figure out how to deal with the current situation.

At this time, Chen Xinyu did not have any news to pass back, which aggravated Su Yao's curiosity, and he didn't know how to deal with the current situation now. This is also the main reason why Su Yao is not able to become a one-sided commander of the army, because he is not able to deal with the situation in front of him clearly at a critical time, and he is far inferior to Zhou Yu, Wang Yan and others, who are also generals, in terms of grasping and controlling the overall situation. Of course, Su Yao has a great advantage compared to Zhou Yu Wang Yan, that is, he is not proud, he is relatively low-key in many aspects, and he is not a very proud general. Therefore, even if his ability is not outstanding in many aspects, he is also the most trusted person of Chen Xinyu after Wang Yan and Zhou Yu.

At this time, Su Yao was patrolling around the Yangcheng Tower, followed by dozens of heavily armed guards guarding him behind him. He looked at the situation below Yangcheng, originally this was not a very prosperous place, coupled with the civil war of the feudal state Qi at this time, it directly caused the originally relatively prosperous commercial flow near Yangcheng to become more depressed. The people below the castle tower will basically return to the city before the sun sets.

Yangcheng is a city in the middle of the mountains, standing in the mountain stream at this moment is still a relatively easy to defend and difficult to attack town, the north of Yangcheng is close to the mountain range behind it, if the people from outside want to enter Yangcheng, they must only be able to enter here from the entrance of the mountain range in front. The road seems a bit long at some times. If ordinary people wanted to walk in, it would inevitably take at least nearly an hour before they could enter Yangcheng. This is also the reason why, when the sunset is about to fall on the Xuanling Continent, there will definitely be no people outside Yangcheng.

But at this moment, two unexpected figures suddenly appeared outside Yangcheng City in Su Yao's sight, these two figures looked very slender in the sunset at this moment, Su Yao looked at the situation in front of him carefully, and after a while, a guard beside Su Yao called out in surprise: "General, this seems to be someone who came directly to our Yangcheng."

Su Yao was also very surprised, he was used to closing the city gate and going back to rest before the sun set in Yangcheng many times. But at this time, there were clearly two living figures that appeared here, and after they walked in, Su Yao saw that these two figures seemed to be very similar existences. It's even almost identical.

I don't know what the reason is, but Su Yao couldn't help but subconsciously didn't stop the two figures in front of him from entering, he said in a low voice: "In that case, we might as well let them in directly and see where they are?"

As soon as these words were said, the guards around Su Yao understood what he meant, since the situation was very grim at this time, the two figures who dared to appear outside their Yang City were probably not ordinary people. In fact, what Su Yao was thinking in his heart, he was guessing whether these two figures would be the messengers sent by Chen Xinyu at this time.

At this moment, the eyes of the soldiers on the tower of Yangcheng City suddenly fell into a very complicated environment, as the two figures got closer and closer, several of the soldiers with sharp eyes suddenly shouted: "General, these two people are obviously very young, definitely not like the person who came to report the news and seems to be less than twenty years old."

Su Yao's eyes were not too sharp, and he couldn't see the two figures in the darkness in front of him clearly at this moment. But as the soldiers around him reminded him one by one, Su Yao's gaze suddenly became complicated, and he was a little curious if his first thought was wrong. He had wanted to take a closer look at whether these two were the messengers sent by Chen Xinyu, but now, it seemed that this was just his own good idea.

"Can you see it really?" However, even so, Su Yao still didn't want to accept such a situation, and he couldn't help but ask again.

"It's definitely accurate, these seem to be two brothers and sisters, and they are two brothers and sisters who look alike," a young soldier standing beside Su Yao patted his chest and said. In fact, the current figures of these two brothers and sisters have come to the city gate of Yangcheng, except for Su Yao, who can't see it clearly, the other soldiers have also seen the figures of the two brothers and sisters clearly.

Since the soldier had already spoken like this, Su Yao had to admit that this was a fact if he didn't admit it. It's just that Su Yao himself still has an idea, no matter where these two brothers and sisters are, he will meet them, dare to appear below Yangcheng at this time, and if he wants to come to the gate of Yangcheng without the light of daylight, it is not something that ordinary people can do. But now, the two siblings have appeared under the gate of Yangcheng. Su Yao and the soldiers above had already heard the young man's shout, and they were even more sure that this was a young young man.

"Under Feng Yuchong (Feng Shanshan), I came here on the orders of Her Majesty the Empress, and I dare to ask if the one on the city tower is General Su Yao, the governor of Yangcheng?" The young man's voice was very clear and loud, and every soldier on the city tower, including Su Yao, could hear the young man's shouting clearly. Especially Su Yao, after Su Yao heard the young man's voice, a slightly excited emotion suddenly rose in his heart, and he immediately shouted: "It is Su Yao, you are really sent by Her Majesty the Empress?"

These two brothers and sisters were none other than Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two brothers and sisters who had said goodbye to Empress Chen Xinyu before, and the two brothers and sisters had originally planned to go directly to Yinchen County, where the Qi army was now stationed, but they couldn't get there in one go. Seeing that the weather was getting darker, they could only come to this mountain city of Yangcheng to borrow it for a while.

But they didn't expect that the city gate had already been closed when they came here, and they could only try their luck with the little news they heard halfway, but they really didn't expect that they happened to run into Su Yao, the governor of Yangcheng, patrolling the city tower, which was really a good opportunity for their two brothers and sisters.
