Everyone stood at the bottom of the wall in a daze, looking at the big "8" on the wall, and a strong respect rose in their hearts.

It is hard to imagine how much painstaking effort, manpower and material resources were spent to build such a long wall.

How many people threw their heads and spilled their blood here, just to protect the frontier, but they have a lifelong wish.

It is said that the wall has existed for thousands of years, guarding the empire for dozens of centuries, and it is still standing.

This wall, which has witnessed the life and death of countless people, has been stained with the blood of countless soldiers, and it is no longer made of simple magical materials, but is made of the blood and flesh of countless soldiers!

The goal of the empire is to repair the Cumming Wall to the end of the Cumming Forest, completely protect the borders of the Empire, and prevent the spirit beasts inside from threatening the safety of the Empire.

"Who's staying under the wall?"

A shout pulled Xin'er and the others below back from their awe, and several people subconsciously raised their heads and exclaimed, "Battalion Commander Fang!"

Yes, it was none other than Fang Guoan, an old friend of Xin'er and the others, who was shouting loudly above just now.

Fang Guoan was overjoyed when he saw that the people below were Xin'er and others.

"Miss Xin'er, Miss Lengyue, Young Master Ma! You're finally here! I thought something was going on your way, and I was about to send someone back to look for you. ”

Xin'er scratched her head embarrassedly, "Hehe, there is indeed a little situation on the road, and I was about to talk to you when I met Camp Commander Fang." ”

"Okay, I'll put a few of them up, and we'll talk about it in detail!"

As he spoke, Fang Guoan pulled the lever beside him, only to see that the wall in front of Xin'er and the others suddenly opened an opening, revealing a staircase.

"Come on, come up, by the way, the three wind horses also ask a few people not to bring them to the wall, although they are no longer domesticated, but after all, they are still spirit beasts, and it is very likely that they will become uncontrollable due to the influence of the tide of Dao beasts, and please tie them to their places. There's plenty of forage here, and even if you leave them alone, they'll be fine. ”

Xin'er and the others nodded, jumped off the horse, tied the wind horse to the place, and entered the stairs inside the wall.

Because several people are in the wall, the light is limited, although there are night pearls at intervals on the side of the staircase, but it is still very dim, and the silent staircase only echoes the footsteps of a few people, which makes people shudder.

Finally, the five of them climbed for a long time, and a bright light appeared in front of them, and the group quickened their pace and walked towards the light, and then they reached the end of the stairs and came to the top of the city wall.

"Miss Xin'er, Miss Lengyue, Ma Gongzi, Fang, have you been waiting for a long time again?" Fang Guoan arched his hand at the three of them.

The three of them smiled slightly, and also arched their hands to Fang Guoan, "I'm sorry, I made Fang Ying wait for a long time." ”

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay. Fang Guoan waved his hand, but found that there were two strangers standing next to the three of them.

"These two are ......"

"In Xia Hu Longxuan, he is the apprentice of Master Ma Dian, please advise. Hu Longxuan said.

"My name is Hu Fengxuan, and I am Ma Dian's wife, please advise. Hu Fengxuan said.

"Ha?!apprentice?!wife?!"

Fang Guoan looked at Ma Dian and then at Xin'er, a little stunned for a while, and Ma Dian hurriedly explained.

"Battalion Commander Fang, don't listen to the two of them, these two are just adventurers who came to support, they encountered some trouble on the way, a few of us rescued them, and we planned to go to the Cumming Wall together, we are not familiar with them, and please don't misunderstand Battalion Commander Fang. ”

"Master, how can you say that! How can we not know each other! In my heart, you will always be my dearest relative!" Hu Longxuan said.

"Xianggong, are you going to abandon me again?" Woo woo woo ......" Hu Fengxuan said with tears in his eyes.

Looking at the superb acting skills of the two, Ma Dian only felt that his head was getting bigger: "Can you two stop making trouble! I am really not your master, nor is I your father-in-law, please don't say anything misleading!"

However, it turned out that Fang Guoan's receptivity was obviously higher than Ma Dian thought, and seeing Ma Dian's expression, Fang Guoan immediately realized: These two people should belong to the kind of personality that repays gratitude, so they keep pestering Ma Dian.

Nodding thoughtfully, Fang Guoan said to the two of them: "Since the two of you are adventurers who came to support, you must have already chosen the support area, right?

Indeed, the two of them did have a choice of region on the support mission list released by the Ming Empire, and at that time, the two of them combined their own practical considerations and chose an area with a relatively light threat.

"We were in Area Six. Hu Longxuan said.

When Fang Guoan heard this, his face showed a very regretful expression, "I'm sorry, two adventurers, we are here in the No. 8 combat area, and the No. 6 area is over there." As he spoke, Fang Guoan pointed in the direction of the south.

"Come on, escort the two adventurers to the sixth combat area!"

"Yes!"

As he spoke, the two strong men walked towards Hu Longxuan and Hu Fengxuan, set up the two of them, and walked towards the south.

"Adventurer, please come with us. ”

"Wait, I've changed my mind, I'm going to be with the master, and I'm going to be in whatever area the master is!" Hu Longxuan said.

"Me too, I want to be with my father-in-law, you can't separate us, let me go!" Hu Fengxuan struggled.

However, the hands of the two soldiers, like two pincers, firmly clamped the two and did not let them leave.

"I'm sorry for the two adventurers, once the area is selected, it cannot be changed, and please ask the two adventurers to fight hard in Area Six, may the glory of the empire shroud over you!" Fang Guoan said with a smile.

"Let go of me, let go of me, let go of my ......"

The voices of the two became less and less, and finally disappeared into the distance together with the figures of the two, Ma Dian subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, arched his hand at Fang Guoan and said, "Thank you Battalion Commander Fang for coming to the rescue." ”

Fang Guoan waved his hand and said: "Haha, it's nothing, there are no wonders in the world, although it is rare to pester you to repay your kindness, it is not nothing, not to mention that Ma Gongzi is so handsome and admired by others." ”

Ma Dian's face turned red, scratched his head and said, "Hehe, Camp Commander Fang has won the award." Having said that, what exactly is the division of Area 6 and Area 8 that Battalion Commander Fang just mentioned?"

"A few of them have just fallen, so let me give you a good introduction to the details of our wall. ”

"There's a battalion commander for the labor release. ”

"At present our wall is twenty-one thousand six hundred li, and every ten li is an area, and it is divided into two thousand one hundred and sixty areas. ”

Hearing this, the three of them couldn't help but gasp, 21,600 miles, such a long wall, I don't know how much work it will take!

Subconsciously looking at the endless high walls on both sides, like a giant dragon hovering in the forest, it is so majestic, so magnificent! so amazing.

Fang Guoan smiled slightly: "This is nothing surprising, after all, the safety of the empire is more important than anything, and the construction of such a long wall is to ensure the safety of the empire." ”

"The reason why there are so many areas is divided is to facilitate management and to facilitate mobility. ”

"After all, with so many people on the wall, and so far away from the southernmost and northernmost sides, it is very difficult to achieve unified management, and we can only implement sub-regional management. ”

"And although the scale of each beast tide is huge, it will not be threatened by the Dao in all areas of the avenue, generally speaking, the beast tide will not be completely concentrated in a certain area, but more loosely, often. It will only affect five to ten areas, which is a distance of 50 to 100 miles. ”

"This beast tide is more special than the past, it is the largest and most widespread beast tide since the founding of the empire, a total of forty-two areas have been affected, namely areas one to twenty, areas thirty-nine to forty-eight, and areas one hundred and one to one hundred and twelve are threatened by the Dao beast tide. ”

"Among them, the beast tide in areas 1 to 20 is the most ferocious and large-scale, and there have been many casualties in order to resist the beast tide. ”

"Because the scale of the beast tide this time is too large, it is difficult for the soldiers on the border to resist, so the empire urgently dispatched soldiers from other regions to the border to support, and at the same time, it also issued rescue missions in various academies and rivers and lakes, hoping that people from all walks of life can come to support. ”

"Our Ice Battalion is a unit that came to support, and I, as the battalion commander of the Ice Battalion No. 8, came to Area 8 and served as the commander-in-chief of Area 8. ”

"Haha, then we were wrong before, we shouldn't be called Battalion Commander Fang, we should be called Commander Fang. Ma Dian smiled.

Fang Guoan waved his hand.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a code name, you can call me whatever you want. By the way, this is the deputy commander of our Lubing Battalion, and he is also the deputy commander this time - Gu Maoshi. Fang Guoan pointed to a sturdy man beside him.

Xin'er recognized this man at a glance, and it was she who rushed up and held Leng Yue's head without hesitation when Leng Yue was out of control, so that Leng Yue didn't go berserk.

"Commander Gu is good, thank you Commander Gu before. Xin'er said respectfully to Gu Maoshi.

Gu Maoshi blushed, scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "Hehe, the three adults are good, you can call me Gu Shi, Gu Commander listens weird." ”

"Haha, okay! Brother Gu Shi!"

Gu Maoshi smiled innocently.

After that, Fang Guoan introduced the people around him to Xin'er and the three, all of whom were soldiers of the Lubing Battalion, namely the deputy commander Gu Maoshi, the logistics captain Gong Jianmu, and the reconnaissance captain Weng Chengtian......

"They are my good brothers and the people I trust the most, and if I am not there, you can contact them if you have any questions. ”

The three of them nodded, but heard Fang Guoan speak: "Okay, didn't the three of you say that you have something to tell me before, there are no outsiders here, please be bold and say it." ”

Only then did the three of them understand that the reason why Fang Guoan wanted to introduce these people to them was to make the three of them feel at ease.

The three of them looked at each other, and finally nodded, and Ma Dian said, "Commander Fang, I don't know if you stayed at the No. 7 post station before you came?"
