However, anyone who commits a serious crime in Yanling, and those who do not die will be exiled to the bitter cold land north of Yanling to be punished, where there was once a daunting Yanbei cold prison.

Although it is a place where prisoners are held, it must also be guarded by officials, generals, and soldiers, so some Yanling officers and soldiers have been assigned here. Everyone knew that it was a chore, and no one came here voluntarily, and the officers and men who were sent here were in the same mood as the prisoners who were assigned. Later, in order to live there normally, the garrison drove prisoners to excavate and build, and it took nearly 100 years to build a prison city.

The prisoners who are sent here to serve their sentences are all life sentences, which means that those who arrive here can never go back, and can only spend the rest of their lives in this prison city until they die.

As the number of prisoners increased, the prison city grew larger and larger, and later became a city within a city.

With the passage of time, many changes have taken place in the prison city, and the officers, generals, and soldiers who have settled here have not only moved their families here, but also passed on their ancestry and multiplied here. Even some jailers changed their surnames without changing their surnames, and they went through four generations of a family in the same post.

I don't know if the Yanling royal family and civil and military officials at that time ignored or forgot about this place, and never sent new generals and troops to come, except for only remembering to escort prisoners here and regularly allocate salaries and silver, this place has basically become an isolated world.

However, this did not affect the survival and development of the prison city, and later the prisoners of the prison city were also classified, and some of the good performance was selected to serve as some supervisors. After a long time, these prisoners became regular, real prison officers.

People always have to reproduce, and the prisoners who became prison officers were also allowed to marry, and they could marry wives and have children. As a result, the oversized prison gradually evolved into a city.

Since all the people who came here are felons, how can they be willing to be so obedient and get better? Moreover, there are many vicious people who kill people and oversell goods, aren't they afraid that they will break the law again?

This is one of the reasons why I chose to use this extremely cold place as a prison in the first place. Why do people break the law? It's nothing more than money and interests, grievances and hatreds. But here, these things don't exist at all. Want money? One here is poorer than the other, and you can't find a target if you steal or rob it, let alone why do you want money here? There are only two kinds of relationships between people, officers and soldiers and prisoners, and there is no intersection of interests at all.

What if the prisoner escapes? Then it's even more of a matter of not worrying. First of all, there are layers of soldiers guarding, plus the supervision of the garrison, and it is difficult to escape to the sky. Even if you have great ability, you can go beyond the layers of checkpoints and go outside the city. But what can he do there? There are perennial snow-capped mountains everywhere, endless snow-covered fields, and if there is no large convoy sent by the capital, you will either freeze to death or starve to death in the end.

Therefore, for the prisoners who wanted to escape and return to the prosperous place, the soldiers in charge said: "If you want to die, go away!" ”

Originally, such a prison city was not bad, and the officers and soldiers stationed there were left unattended and unquestioned, and they were very free and easy. And the prisoner will not be embarrassed, as long as he follows the rules and lives peacefully, his life can still be passed.

It wasn't until the 196th year of Yanling that a sudden accident occurred one day, which changed the fate of everyone in this huge prison city.

The location of the Prison City is surrounded by several huge snow-capped mountains, and there is only one way in and out. If you come from Yanling Kyoto to the prison city, there is only one way you can go. And this only way was completely blocked by an unexpected huge avalanche. After the Yanling court found out, it immediately sent troops to clear the road, but this avalanche was beyond imagination, tens of thousands of soldiers dug for three months, and even half a mile of the road was not cleared.

Later, there was a civil strife in the Yanling royal family, and the soldiers were recalled, and for more than 100 years, the prison city was no longer cared for, and even people almost forgot that this prison city once existed.

During this period, Yanling had civil strife and wars, and the Central Plains, which was originally the sole respect of the Yanling family, slowly became two countries standing side by side, and then became the three kingdoms, and then became the coexistence of the four countries.

It wasn't until the year 305 of Yanling that the people of Beiling walked out of the snow-capped mountain from the prison city that was covered by heavy snow and came to the world.

No one knows what has happened to the original prison city in the past hundred years, but when people see it again, the prison city is no longer the original prison city, but the current Northern Spirit Kingdom.

It was from then on that the world officially entered the situation of the five countries. In the blink of an eye, more than 200 years have passed.

The surname Han has always been the national surname of the Northern Spirit Kingdom, how the surname Han was established in the first place, how the Northern Spirit Kingdom was established and how to take people out of the snow mountain, these are the secrets of the Northern Spirit, no one knows. Since the surname Han has been able to rule Beiling for more than 200 years, it seems that he does have his uniqueness.

No matter where the Han family comes from, they seem to have an inexplicable good impression of Yanling, ignoring other countries, and only sending envoys to Yanling to establish diplomatic relations.

The past is gone, and Yan Ling has to admit the identity of the Northern Spirit Kingdom, after all, it was Yan Ling who took the initiative to give up there for hundreds of years. I don't know if it was out of guilt or what, but after an exchange, the two countries established a trade relationship.

Every year, Beiling will bring its own specialties to Yanling to exchange, and food, daily necessities, and even later silk and other things have become commodities that can be exchanged by both sides. Trade has been going on for a long time, and even the Beiling Hanyu has also spread to Yanling, and now almost all the jade products worn by the Yanling royal and officials are made of Beiling Hanyu.

The Northern Spirit Kingdom unexpectedly showed favor to the Yanling Kingdom, which made the other three countries feel a dangerous atmosphere, because if the two countries of Beiling and Yanling formed an alliance, it would inevitably be a great threat to the other three countries.

In order to test Beiling's position, the other three countries also sent envoys to Beiling to try to establish trade relations. Who knew that Beiling did not refuse to come, and reached a cooperative relationship with all the messengers.

However, it also dispelled the concerns of the other three countries, and they all unanimously determined that the Beiling Kingdom was extremely short of supplies in the ice and snow, and the establishment of diplomatic relations with Yanling was only in exchange for daily necessities such as food and cloth. What threat can this poor country, which is still stuck in the problem of food and clothing, pose to itself? So they all put their minds at ease.

Over the years, the other three kingdoms gradually lost interest in establishing trade with the Northern Spirit, and the material exchanges between them became intermittent and less and less, and then they simply stopped contacting. Only the trade between Yanling and Beiling has been consistent and uninterrupted for so many years.

Due to the perennial replacement with Yanling, Beiling also brought back some technologies and crafts from Yanling, and realized self-development according to local conditions, which slowly made the national strength stronger and stronger, and the military ability also made leaps and bounds. However, among the five countries, it is still the weakest, and its self-protection is acceptable, but it is obviously not strong enough to attack others.

Today, I have to say that the development of the Northern Spirit Kingdom is inseparable from the subtle assistance of Yanling, although the relationship between the two countries is not an alliance, but the friendship between the two countries is by no means ordinary.

Going back to the Five Nations Tournament, what the spectators will see is how Beiling and Yanling will cope with the match, and whether whoever wins or loses will dissolve the relationship that has been established through trade over the years.

Yanling seeks victory in order to keep his land, and Beiling seeks victory in order to save face, so as not to annihilate the whole army, which is a battle that no one can afford to lose.

If judged from the strength, Yanling's chances of victory will be greater, after all, the strong strength of Yanling's generals, all countries have learned a bloody lesson, and it is not a waste of fame.

However, Beiling, the princess of Qi, even put on the snow silkworm clothes, and this posture was clearly unyielding. This makes the ending even more confusing.

It's the game that has to be decided, and since the two people are standing on the stage, they are bound to be separated. After the two looked at each other for a moment, suddenly they shot at the same time.

Guo Zidi's meteor hammer was thrown out violently and hit Han Miaoqi's door. And the opponent's three-section stick swept the ground and hit Guo Zidi's right foot.
