Chapter 289: Hundred Horses and Little West Peak

Today, the three races of humans, barbarians, and demons stand side by side, but it is undeniable that the human empire occupies the most vast and fertile soil on the map.

Therefore, there are far more famous mountains in the territory of the Dajin Dynasty than in the Northern Barbarians, which is also a matter of course.

The 100 Horse Peak is not the most prestigious of them, but it has a very special and important place in history.

This mountain has existed in the world for a long time, even longer than the history of the Dajin Dynasty.

But it was only more than a thousand years ago that it was truly known to the world.

At that time, mankind had not yet achieved great unification, the princes were fighting, countless small countries were fighting each other, and war was the most commonplace.

At that time, human beings not only had to face the civil war of the race, but also needed to guard against foreign invasion, the first of which was the demon race that landed from the South China Sea.

At that time, the power of the demon clan was so prosperous, under the leadership of the three princes of the clan, they killed all the way from the South China Sea to the place where today's Sunset Valley is located, and even put on a posture of dividing the river with the human countries.

It was the most dangerous moment in human history, and the situation was even more dire than the earlier period when the North Barbarians moved south.

Because once the demon clan invades the Shuo River valley and confronts the human Linjiang, then the human race will completely fall into a desperate situation where they can't attack and can't defend.

At the root of it, the demon clan is good at water!

The Shuo River is a natural danger to humans, but it can be as flat as the demon race!

At that time, it is almost an impossible task for human beings to cross the river to counterattack the southern plains, but the demon clan can swim in the water at any time after recuperation!

The human army has reached the point where there is no way back.

And it was at that time that the seven small human nations finally decided to stop the civil war and unite with the outside world, and they had even formed an alliance. intends to annihilate the entire demon army in today's Sunset Valley.

But that day, in the demon clan array, there was a genius general who was rare for a thousand years.

He is also the third prince of the clan.

It was he who led the demon people from the sea to the land, and it was he who taught the demon people how to fight on the ground, and he personally commanded 100,000 demon soldiers, all the way from Crystal City to Sunset Valley, and experienced a total of thirty-two battles. Its record is, all wins!

The name of this third prince is Yao Zhi.

In the language of the demon clan, this represents the son of God.

Maybe it's really like the legend, this third prince of the demon clan seems to be really the ray of holy light given to the demon clan by the gods, so before the decisive battle in Sunset Valley, he noticed the movement of the human alliance in advance, and actually made a dangerous move, only leading ten cronies as dead soldiers, and broke into the human camp alone. Among the ten thousand armies, he obtained the heads of the two great generals of Xiubei and Xiutie, caused the bombing of the camp, and successfully disintegrated the alliance of the Seven Kingdoms, almost single-handedly defusing the danger of Sunset Valley!

The 300,000 human army didn't even see the shadow of the demon clan, so they returned defeated, lost their armor all the way, and retreated for thirty miles in a row. Came to an unknown mountain.

If all goes well, the demon army will arrive here with the power of thunder. Annihilate all the remaining remnants of the defeated army, and then go north to the Shuo River in one go, and plant the flag for Xinjiang!

But at this time, the node of history turned a corner lightly.

The human alliance did not wait for the arrival of the demon people, but they heard that it was mysterious. The three princes who frightened the world, Yao Zhi, disappeared inexplicably!

In the demon army at that time, Yao Zhi's prestige had even surpassed that of the Demon Emperor, so he disappeared. made the entire demon army completely out of proportion.

It is said that a demon clan general later found Yao Yan's bones, but the cause of the death of the legendary third prince is still a mystery.

Even in the history books of today's mankind, only the most helpless two words are written after the cause of Yaozhi's death: unknown.

The death of Yao Zhi completely split the demon army, and the four major generals under his command were divided into two factions, one faction insisted on sending Yao Zhi's body back to the South China Sea to report the funeral to the king, and the other faction was determined to fulfill Yao Zhi's last wish and draw a perfect end to this nine-year war with victory.

So the final result was that the demon army was divided into two routes, one north and one south, one attacking and one retreating.

At this time, a full ten days had passed since the human coalition retreated to the mountains and forests.

In a battle that is enough to rewrite the history of the continent, time is the most precious and the most critical key, and whoever holds it can open the door to victory.

Ten days was enough time for the human coalition to breathe their breath and formulate a desperate strategy.

When the demon soldiers approached the bottom of the mountain, they were shocked to find that the human beings had cut down all the trees on the mountain, and the first to greet them was the desperate charge of hundreds of war horses!

It was the most humble heavy cavalry in human history, and the only one to rush out of the mountains and forests, but the final result shocked everyone.

In this battle, the demon clan had an army of more than 40,000 people, and only less than 100 people escaped from the encirclement.

This is the first and only victory won by the human army since the demon soldiers went to sea.

At this point, the demon clan completely retreated to the South China Sea, although there were several counterattacks after that, but they only occupied a corner of the crystal city, and there was no scene of sweeping the continent again.

Until 500 years ago, Emperor Taizu led the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest to dominate the world and establish the Dajin Dynasty, and mankind finally established its own hegemony, and no one can shake it.

And in order to commemorate the great victory that changed the fate of mankind, the decisive battle site chosen by the Terran coalition on that day, and the mountain peak on which it depended, finally had an official name.

Although it is not as majestic as the three mountains and five mountains, and it looks like a small mountain col from a distance, it has left the most valuable wealth to mankind and brought mankind a bright and prosperous era for more than 1,000 years.

Less than 100 miles to the west of it, there is the very famous west peak of the three peaks and five peaks.

That's why it's called Little Nishifeng.

100 Horse Little West Peak.

When Xia Sheng carried Jiang Qiqi on his back and came to this mountain peak with Meng Qi, Pei Yuan and Yue'er, he finally felt a trace of late arrival in his heart.

It turns out that this is the Hundred Horse Xiaoxi Peak.

This is where his brother died.

This is where the bones of the 40,000 heroic souls are buried.

Indeed, it's a pity......

If he had lived longer in his seventh life, even if it had been for another three or five days, perhaps the pattern would have been completely different today.

The same emotion was felt when he accompanied Emperor Taizu to conquer the north and south five hundred years ago, but he never really came to Baima Xiaoxi Peak until today.

This cannot be called a revisit, but a kind of regret that has spanned the years.

It's just that I don't know, when Xia Sheng really stepped on this mountain that also has a legendary status in history, was the nine-eyed fire python that put him to death back then still there?
