The ancient continent, the northern snowfield.

At noon, fine snowflakes fall in the sky and fall on the vast expanse of snow, which is ushering in the coldest season of the year.

In the distance, the mountains are undulating, and a large frozen river winds southward, like a crystal jade belt, and there is no sign of people around, so empty that people feel small.

Wei Changfeng rode on a camel horse, a specialty of the Northern Regions, and looked at a dock fort located on the east bank of the great river from afar.

Fort Stone, that was the destination of his mission.

The snowfields of the Northern Regions have always been the habitat of the barbarians of the Far North, and their ancestral holy city is located in the center of the snowy region, which has flourished in the snowy region since ancient times, and can be called the master of this world.

However, the barbarians were never content to rule the entire snowfield, and for generations they longed to possess the richer, warmer lands of the south, and repeatedly went south to wage war.

However, under the strong resistance of the rising kingdom of the Central Plains, the Far North Barbarians have never been able to successfully cross the Great Hengduan Mountain Range, which stretches for thousands of miles, and now under the joint efforts of the Wuyue Sect and the Great Qi, they can only cower on the cold snow field and gnaw on the turf.

Of course, the Extreme Northern Barbarians will not be willing to sink, in the past few decades, they have reached an alliance with the Demon Gate that has re-emerged in the Northland, and have constantly attacked the Wuyue Sect, in a vain attempt to completely eliminate the forces deployed by the Wuyue Sect in the Northern Snow Field, and destroy the Beiyue Lieyang Mountain, cutting off one of the arms of the Wuyue Sect!

This time, the barbarians and the Demon Gate launched a surprise attack on the Wuyue Sect, which was both unexpected and reasonable.

What Wei Changfeng was about to go to investigate was a fallen dock fort on the snowfield in the Northern Regions.

Three days ago, he joined the Fifth Striker of the Taiyue Department in Wuyue City and became a member of the first squad of the Pioneer Battalion. As a reinforcement, he crossed the mountains and rushed to Liaoyuan City.

Liaoyuan City is the most important stronghold of the Wuyue Sect in the Northern Regions, and there are a large number of elite masters stationed in the city, even if the barbarians do their best to attack, it is impossible to capture this Xiongcheng in a short time.

Of course, the barbarians and the demon gate were not so stupid, and in the harsh winter season, they attacked the well-defended cities, and they hit the Wubao scattered near Liaoyuan City and the Lieyang Mountain in the northwest of Liaoyuan City. As a result, the Northern Regions were full of smoke for a while, and the disciples of the Wuyue Sect suffered heavy casualties.

Wei Changfeng had just arrived in Liaoyuan City with the first squad of the Taiyue Pioneer Battalion, and after less than half a day's rest, he was sent out to reconnoiter Shihe Fort, looking for signs of the activities of the Demon Gate or the barbarians.

"Follow me and be on guard!"

A bearded warrior in thick armor was the first to ride out, a deep voice echoing in everyone's ears.

This sect warrior named Gao Gang is the military leader of the first squad.

Five peaks, eight divisions, seventy-two fronts, one blade, three hundred elite warriors. It is the core combat power of the Wuyue Sect.

As soon as the sect faced the threat of war, the eight divisions and seventy-two blades would immediately expand, relying on these well-trained and loyal innate warriors to the sect.

For example, the pioneer battalion where Wei Changfeng is located belongs to a temporary establishment, with ten teams and one hundred squads in one battalion, and eleven members of a small team are all draft warriors, and the military commander who is equivalent to the captain is served by the samurai of the sect in the seventy-two fronts.

This kind of establishment is basically no different from the army, as the top sect of the Ten Thousand Ancient Continent, the Wuyue Sect, except in terms of numbers. In terms of strength, it is no longer lost to Daqi or Daqin, and it is even more than in terms of top-level combat power.

But on the snowy fields of the Northern Regions. It is still the barbarians and the demon gate that have the initiative and advantage.

The earliest news is that of the thirty-six dock forts under the jurisdiction of Liaoyuan City, seventeen have fallen, and the actual situation is even worse, so far twenty-nine dock forts have lost contact, and it is estimated that there are many bad luck.

Liaoyuan City once sent scouts to reconnoiter the situation of the dock forts in various places, but they were all intercepted and killed by the masters of the Demon Gate. In order to preserve the strength of the defending city, he held on to wait for help until the arrival of the three tribes of Wind, Thunder, and Taiyue.

After the three reinforcements of the Wuyue Sect appeared, the forces of the Demon Gate and the Barbarians around Liaoyuan City retreated, but no one would think that they would disappear and there must be some conspiracy brewing.

And for Liaoyuan City. The fallen Dock Fort is to find a way to recapture it, because their existence is an important part of the defense system of the Wuyue Sect in the Northern Regions, and once they are all lost, Qianyuan will become a lonely city!

That's why there was a reconnaissance mission of the first squad of the Taiyue Pioneer Battalion.

Shihe Fort is not the largest among the thirty-six dock forts, its existence is to guard the Liaonan River, there are two thousand residents and two hundred condensation realm warriors in the dock fort, and the lord of the fort, Gu Yongfeng, is a strong man of the innate six heavens.

Three days ago, Liaoyuan City received an emergency warning from Shihe Fort, and then cut off contact.

Under the leadership of Gao Gang, eleven innate powerhouses, including Wei Changfeng, rode camels and horses to rush towards Shihe Fort.

The camel is a kind of low-ranking demon beast unique to the snow field, tall and not afraid of the cold, can also run like flying on the snow, and has a strong weight-bearing capacity, because the back has a camel-like convex peak and gets its name.

These camels and horses were provided to the pioneer battalion by the defenders of Liaoyuan City, and all members of the first squad were assigned a horse as a representative tool, which greatly saved physical strength.

They didn't have anything to hide their actions, first of all, because the area around Shihe Fort was open, and there was not much cover to be found, so there was no need to cover up.

Secondly, the combination of twelve innate powerhouses is enough to threaten a beginner-level Transformation God Grandmaster, even if he can't defeat the enemy who may occupy Shihe Castle, there is no problem if he wants to escape, the so-called art master is bold.

A few miles away, in a blink of an eye.

The scale of the Fort was not small, the walls were made of large blocks of hard and thick rock, and the walls were poured with water and ice, so that they could not resist most attacks.

However, the gates of the dock fort were smashed, and the broken wood was scattered all over the ground, and broken arrows, swords and other weapons could be seen everywhere, as well as blood stains frozen and solidified.

It was clear that there was a terrible battle here, and in the end, Shihe Fort was not held and was breached by the enemy, and suffered a great catastrophe.

Although this result is not unexpected, it still makes people's hearts sink when they look at it!

One of the team members asked in surprise, "Why can't you see half of the body?"

Judging from what has been discovered so far, the enemy withdrew after breaking through the Shihe Fort and did not stay to occupy the dock fort by the river.

It's just that the barbarians and the people of the Demon Gate plundered the materials and food in the castle and took away the corpses of their companions, so they wouldn't be so kind as to bury the corpses of the defenders, right?
