Chapter 200: Silent Hill
Silent Ridge is a dangerous valley located between the northern border of Juntian and Chengdu.
The boundary between the sister states and Bozhou is mostly distinguished by the Yanggushan Mountain, a vast mountain range that stretches for hundreds of thousands of miles from north to south, lying between the two states.
The sheep intestine mountain is divided into two sections, the north sheep intestine is located between the two states of the sheep intestine is the main mountain range, the south sheep intestine refers to a very short mountain range between the two states of Jiyang, of course, this short is also compared with the north sheep intestine.
In the vast land west of the Juntian Continent, there is another vast mountain range that stretches from north to south, Taihang Mountain.
Yangjiao Mountain and Taihang Mountain are like the two tough arms of the Juntian Continent, lying across this ancient world, dividing the entire Juntian Continent into three, blocking the exchanges between the states on the Juntian Continent.
Although the sheep intestine is wide, there will eventually be a gap.
At the northernmost point of the Sheep Intestine Range, near the Great Rift Valley, the mountain range halted her progress, leaving a wide passage between the two states.
On both sides of the passage are the two giant cities that have guarded Juntian for countless years, and the wind is the same as Chengdu.
In the middle of the passage is a large open valley, and Silent Hill is located in a very steep place in this valley, which guards the only passage between the two states.
Before the outbreak of the war, countless travelers from the two states traded and played through this mountain, and it was the only communication route between the two states in the northern border of Juntian.
Every day, countless vehicles and goods pass through Silent Hill to all parts of the Juntian Continent, and every day it is bustling here.
But that all changed, and just after the outbreak of war, Silent Hill became a completely different place, another place that was incredibly strange to the world.
Silent Hill has another name above the earth, Silent Soul Ridge, the soul of the soul.
Despite its name, Silent Hill is not silent at all.
Silent Hill is actually quite noisy.
After the outbreak of the war, there were countless soldiers in the two states who fought fiercely under Silent Hill, and each time countless soldiers fell under Silent Hill, and they fell here forever, never getting up and walking out of Silent Hill.
Since ancient times, there have been many tragic battles in Silent Mountain, and after each battle, the victorious side will count the number of dead and wounded, and a fire will incinerate all the corpses into ashes and sprinkle them on this silent mountain, so the souls of countless victims are buried under Silent Mountain.
A fire returns to heaven and earth, dust to dust, earth to earth, Silent Hill is also known as Silent Soul Ridge, the soul of the soul, the soul of countless soldiers who will die and the soul of the wronged soul.
And since the outbreak of the war between the two states six years ago, Silent Hill has once again become a slaughtering field, and has become the front line of the two armies.
Silent Hill is a dark red color as a whole, and everything on Silent Hill, whether it is land or rocks, is dark red, and even the branches and leaves of most of the plants and trees growing on Silent Hill are dark red.
Maybe Silent Hill is different, or maybe it's because there is too much blood soaked all year round, in short, Silent Hill shows this strange color everywhere.
What's even stranger is that once you get out of the Silent Hill area, the rocks and all the vegetation and trees return to their normal color, which is very strange to look at.
As a result, there are many who see Silent Hill as an ominous place, as a gathering place for evil.
Indeed, how can such an ancient battlefield give people a sense of serenity, and how it can be comforting to think that every foot stepped on may be the place where a soldier died.
Fortunately, Silent Hill does not have any special abnormalities except for the fact that there are more people dying, so this quiet place still welcomes countless souls who may die every day.
Mu Yi had been to Silent Hill countless times before, and on this dark red land, he had also fought countless times with the army of Bozhou.
Under this land, there are not only countless Bozhou generals who died under his sword, but also countless loyal and brave generals under him.
Many times, Mu Yi personally carried his soldiers who had died in battle together, and then threw the blazing torches into the pile of corpses, and finally watched as the once vivid lives turned into a pile of ashes and disappeared forever in this world.
All the armies above the sky do not have the custom of burying dead soldiers, but anyone who dies on the battlefield will be incinerated.
I don't know when this custom spread, and it has been passed down to this day, and this ancient custom is still prevalent in the armies of Juntian Kyushu.
Not only the army, but also the ordinary people and even the dignitaries and nobles above the sky, as well as the royal family and nobles, all carried out cremation, but after the ordinary people died, their incinerated ashes were often put away, and then put into clay pots, and finally buried in the earth, which was naturally covered with a tomb.
The people above the sky believe that it is the best choice for people to die like lights go out, and it is the best choice to incinerate them into ashes and return to heaven and earth, and the kind of burial in the earth and letting the corpses decompose and melt into the earth is a desecration of this heaven and earth, and it is the greatest threat to all the living people in heaven and earth.
Mu Yi didn't know how these strange ideas came down, but since everyone had been following this ancient tradition, it was really nothing.
Stepping on this dark red land sprinkled with blood again, it was difficult for Mu Yi to calm down in his heart.
That long-lost battlefield life is back.
But the first thing he wanted to do at the moment was to meet Wang Yue in person, after all, he was ordered to come, thinking of this, Mu Yi felt helpless for a while, the person he didn't want to see the most in Fengdu was now the second acquaintance he wanted to see.
Even if he is reluctant in his heart, as a soldier, Mu Yi must obey military orders.
The Fengdu side occupied the western section of Silent Hill, while the Bozhou army occupied the eastern section, and the armies of the two states were eyeing the Silent Ridge, looking for an opportunity to attack at any time.
Once one of them is lost on Silent Hill, the enemy can advance all the way to the city of Fengdu or Chengdu without hindrance.
This is not uncommon, and it often happens, as Silent Hill changes hands once at regular intervals as the two armies compete with each other.
Every time the losing side wants to regain control of Silent Hill, it must cost a lot of money, but they have to do so, otherwise they will let the enemy advance and retreat at will, and all the initiative on their side will be lost, and they can only be beaten by the enemy.
However, it is also very difficult to defend the Silent Ridge, this mountain range is actually very open, not very suitable for defense, but in addition to the Silent Ridge, the other areas between Fengdu and Chengdu are even more open and more difficult to defend.
As a result, Silent Hill has always been at the forefront of the confrontation between the armies of the two states, and the casualties here are also the most serious on the entire battlefield.
Under the leadership of a herald, Mu Yi walked through the heavy barracks and walked towards Wang Yue's military tent.
In the end, when Mu Yi entered the most central tent and saw that grim face, everything was a foregone conclusion, and what should come will always come.
"The last general, Mu Yi, has seen Wang Shaoshuai!" Mu Yi bowed and saluted.
