Eighteen miles outside the big river city, there is a tavern. It's the only way to get in and out of River City, so this tavern is doing a good job regardless of the heat or winter.

Today, too, the tavern is as crowded as ever. It's just that these people are carrying knives, and obviously they are not here to drink.

No, there are exceptions!

At a table, there sat two men drinking. They all have one thing in common, and that is the long horns on their heads.

One of them was the Yao clan forward general surnamed Liu. And the other one is even more remarkable, it is Xiuchuan, the third prince of the Northern Court, who is likely to become the emperor of the Northern Court in the future!

"I can't imagine that the 500-year struggle will end like this!"

Liu Liu took a sip of Mobei liquor and sighed.

Xiu Chuan also sighed and said: "Yes, I didn't expect Aoi Cheng to end up like this, it's a song and a cry." Even if they are our enemies, they deserve respect!"

The two of them drank the wine in one gulp, and wanted to pour another glass, but found that the wine jug was empty. So Liu Liu turned his head and said to the tavern owner who was trembling, "Go and get two more pots." ”

The tavern owner is a man who is almost unconfused, named Xiao Si. He took two jugs of wine with trembling hands, and began to shiver again when he placed them on the table.

"Don't be afraid!"

Seeing that the tavern owner was really scared, Liu Liu comforted him. It's okay not to say this, as soon as he opened his mouth, he directly scared the boss to his knees.

After Xiao Si knelt down, he kowtowed like pounding garlic, and kept praying: "Don't kill my daughter-in-law." Don't kill my daughter-in-law!"

Liu Liu smiled and said, "Don't worry, we don't kill people casually!"

As Suning speculated, Mobei needs people for spring ploughing. Beiting will not easily kill the people of this black land, because of the plundering of the land at the same time. They also need to plunder the population.

It's just that Suning is wrong, Beiting didn't just come to plunder, they want to go home!

Shuchuan poured himself a glass of wine, but did not drink it. Instead, he fell to the ground, and then said seriously: "Jing Kuicheng!"

Liu Liu also poured the wine in the cup on the ground, and then said, "Respect Kuicheng!"

Aoi City is indeed worthy of respect, whether it is an enemy or not!

The Zhou Wu Dynasty conquered Mobei and drove the Yao people to the far north. Then build Kwai City on the shore of Lake Kwai and at the foot of Longji Mountain.

Since the establishment of Kwai City, it has been nailed to the foot of Longji Mountain, so that countless Yao men are not allowed to go south.

It wasn't until sixty years ago that Kitachi discovered that Aoi Castle seemed to have lost contact with Kyushu. No more guards came to Kwai Cheng, and no more Kwai Cheng veterans left.

Kwai Castle has become a lonely enclave!

But even so, the 100,000 Kwai City armor soldiers still firmly controlled Longji Mountain, and still made it impossible for Beiting to go south half a step.

Although it was discovered that something seemed to be wrong with Aoi Castle, the Northern Court was unable to make up his mind to attack. As time passed, a woman of great talent ascended to the throne of the Northern Court.

She set her sights on Kwai Cheng again, for the Mohe River in the south, that is, the Mobei in the mouth of Kyushu, the Yao people are determined to win!

Because no matter what nationality it is, home is home. Even if you go with the flow for thousands of miles, home is a place to go back.

When the soldiers of the Northern Court came to Kwai City, they found that the soldiers of Kwai Cheng were all old men with white hair. They stayed here sixty years ago, and they're still here sixty years later.

Originally, there were 100,000 armor soldiers in Kwai City, but at this time there were only 40,000 left. For sixty years, they either died of old age or died in skirmishes with the Northern Court.

No one escaped!

Even if the army of the Northern Court came to the city, there were only 40,000 old people in the city. Faced with the temptation of "as long as you surrender, you can go home", all the old people in Kwai City stood at the head of the city with tears in their eyes. In the face of the cold wind, in the face of the North Court like an army of ants.

They smiled and said, "Behind Aoi Castle is my hometown!"

That year, the Kwaicheng armor soldiers were all old and weak, and at that time, the old and weak of Kwaicheng were all wearing armor, except for Wei Xiaodao, the Kwaicheng armor soldiers were all killed in battle!

Speaking of these, Liu Liu felt embarrassed. was originally a three-hundred-year-old enemy of life and death, but after really getting rid of the opponent, he felt extremely respectful of them.

What a contradiction!

Xiu Chuan also sighed, and then said: "If these warriors left over from the Zhou Wu Dynasty knew the hometown they guarded, they would have forgotten them a long time ago, how sad would it be?"

Yes, as Shukawa said. Mobei, guarded by Aoi City, forgot them, and their hometown of Kyushu, which they never forgot, also forgot them.

Time is indeed the most magical thing in the world, and under its wash, everything will be forgotten.

Of course, the reason why Aoi Castle was forgotten by Kyushu was not just the change of dynasty. There's a deeper meaning in there, it's just hard to tell.

"Either way, their spirit deserves to be respected!"

Liu Liu said his thoughts, even if he knew that there was no result, but the action itself had meaning.

"At least, we Yao will always remember them. And it was their bravery and fearlessness that changed our attitude towards the Desert North. ”

"At the very least, there will be fewer deaths!"

Xiu Chuan nodded and added: "It's not that many people are dead, according to the current situation in Mobei, there is no need to die so many people at all!"

"Phew, Mobei. This place should be called Mo Nan!"

Liu Liu shook his head, swept away some of his depressed feelings, and replied with a smile: "After recapturing Mobei, you will definitely be called back to Mohe, or will you play to the empress and say that it will be changed to Monan?"

"Hey, that's a good idea!"

Xiu Chuan also smiled, and then asked, "When are we going to attack Big River City?"

Now they are only eighteen miles in Great River City, and it won't take long at the speed of Snow Deer. Originally, Liu Liu's leadership was wrong, but he was the pioneer of the first to investigate the military situation.

Unexpectedly, the Zhou Wu Dynasty had already fallen for sixty years, and the current Mobei was even more scattered. It's hard to believe that there are only 2,000 defenders in a huge place!

But no matter how many people were arrested and asked, the answer they gave was the same. So Liu Liu and Xiu Chuan had other ideas. Since Mobei is so weak, why can't the vanguard scout become a forward city?

As long as you take the big river city where the center of Mobei is located, then it is equivalent to controlling half of Mobei.

The timing is like this, how can you let it go?

"Strike tonight?" Shukawa suggested.

Liu Liu shook his head and said, "Wait for tomorrow, tomorrow morning to march to Big River City!"

"Why?" Xiu Chuan was a little puzzled, the so-called soldier is fast. They were only eighteen miles away from Great River City, almost instantaneously, so why wait all night? If he really got the credit for recovering the ancestral land, it would undoubtedly bring him one step closer to the throne of the Yao clan.

These willows naturally knew, and the other party was the prince after all, so he explained loudly: "It's about to be night, and now the people are pulling out, and the gate of Dahe City will definitely be closed when they get to it." ”

"We don't have many people, so why bother storming a city. Rest all night, wait for the city gate to open tomorrow morning, and just enter directly!"

Xiu Chuan patted his head and said with a smile: "I was excited, I actually forgot that there is still a city gate in Dahe City." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, just waiting for tomorrow morning to enter the big river!
