Shacheng, a city located on the northern border of the Great Chinese Kingdom. It is the closest to the Numa tribe and is naturally the most vulnerable to Numa harassment.

The life of the people in the border city has always been full of hardship, and the people of Shacheng are naturally no exception. There are very few permanent residents here, and there is a lot of population movement.

Because of the large floating population, the internal guards of Shacheng are not tight. Only the north and west gates facing the Numa tribe are heavily guarded, and anyone who passes through these two gates, whether entering or exiting, must go through strict checks and inquiries, and the process will be delayed for about ten minutes, to say the least.

In general, however, very few people pass through these two gates. Because most of the people in the city do not go in the direction of the Numa, because it is difficult to ensure safety. Only some merchants or people in the rivers and lakes may pass by, and these people happen to be the key targets of Shacheng.

The white hall comes from the east, and naturally enters through the east gate. When entering the city gate, the guards saw that Bai Tang was holding a weapon, and only told Bai Tang not to make trouble in the city, so he let Bai Tang enter the city.

Bai Tang didn't know if the war here was over, so he didn't know if Zhao Heng and the others were still in Shacheng. However, Bai Tang would come to Shacheng first, just to try his luck and try to meet Zhao Heng and them.

I haven't seen him for many days, and Bai Tang really misses his friends.

It's just that Bai Tang can't ask the soldiers in the city directly about these things, otherwise he is afraid that he will be arrested as a spy spying on the military intelligence.

So Bai Tang could only ask someone in the city, and as for the person to inquire, this still depends on the edge.

Some people are born with the appearance of being unapproachable, and Bai Tang naturally won't be bored with himself.

As he walked, Bai Tang searched for candidates among the pedestrians, and finally set his sights on a simple man who looked simple.

Who knew that Bai Tang had just stared at the man for a while, and the man suddenly seemed to be stimulated by something, turned his eyes to Bai Tang, and said with an angry face: "What are you worried about?"

Bai Tang was slightly stunned, and said casually, "What are you doing?"

The anger on the man's face was even worse, but in this anger, there was a hint of vigilance.

Bai Tang thought that the man would do it without saying a word, but who knew that the man only glared at Bai Tang fiercely in the end, and then snorted coldly, and walked directly from Bai Tang's side.

Bai Tang couldn't help but stare at the man's back, obviously seeing that this man's figure was quite strong, how could he be so cowardly? He felt as if the man was deliberately restraining his emotions.

Curious, Bai Tang subconsciously followed behind the man.

After walking for a while, Bai Tang found that the man's movements were a little suspicious. Obviously he looks like a downright person, but this man walks a few steps and looks around sneakily, as if he is about to do something unspeakable.

This made Bai Tang more and more curious, and after avoiding the man's gaze several times, Bai Tang finally picked a time when no one was paying attention and became invisible, and then continued to follow the man.

The man walked and stopped, and finally walked into an alley, and then knocked on a small dilapidated door in the alley.

The door creaked open, and a stout man stood at the door, and when he saw the man, he gave way to the side.

The man immediately entered the courtyard, and Bai Tang used the ability to escape to enter with him.

After closing the door, the strong man directly took out an iron card from his arms, and then handed it to the man, and said at the same time: "Take this brand, go to the Tonghu Inn near the north gate, about tomorrow morning to evening, there will be five groups of people staying at the inn." All five groups of people are dressed in red, and they are embroidered with horses or wolves. As long as you connect with them, they will explain to you, and you can do what they say. ”

The man nodded, solemnly put the iron medal into his arms, and then bowed respectfully to the strong man.

The stout man struck his left chest three times with a fist in his right hand, then put his hand down and said to the man, "As long as this plan succeeds, you will definitely be rewarded by my king." ”

The man bowed again, then took two steps back respectfully, and then turned around and opened the courtyard door and walked out.

Bai Tang stared at the strong man silently for a while, this person's accent didn't sound right, just like listening to foreigners speak Chinese in his previous life, he always felt ten twisted. Therefore, Bai Tang paid more attention to this person, and at the same time, he became more and more curious about the identity of the strong man.

It's just that Bai Tang can't do it to this strong man because of his curiosity, although he has the confidence to win the strong man, but after all, there is still a bottom line, and he can't hurt people for no reason.

Fortunately, there was still that man as a breakthrough, and Bai Tang left here in a hurry, and then followed behind the man incognito.

The man went all the way to the north, and really came to the Tonghu Inn near the north gate, and then did not do anything superfluous, and directly opened a room and lived.

After Bai Tang appeared outside the inn, he also opened a room in the inn, and then asked the innkeeper about the war in Shacheng.

After all, he is a person who can open an inn in this city, and the news is still very well-informed, even if he briefly told Baitang about the past few months.

The battle went well, the Numa tribe was repulsed, and the Dahua army pursued all the way, directly attacking the lone wolf tribe closest to Shacheng, and returned with a great victory.

The people of the Lone Wolf Tribe could only be forced to move to the Shenma Tribe in the northwest.

As it was approaching winter at that time, the Dahua army temporarily gave up the plan to pursue the victory, so that it was convenient to set up camp in Shacheng, reorganize the soldiers and horses, and at the same time continuously transport grain and grass from all over the country to meet the needs of the Dahua army.

The Numa tribe has always attacked the Dahua border in the autumn and winter, and now the lone wolf tribe has been repulsed, and the losses are not small, and Shacheng and several surrounding border cities have Dahua heavy garrisons, the Numa tribe has only carried out a few tentative attacks this winter, and after finding nothing and suffering heavy losses, they finally gave up the idea of plundering resources, and can only temporarily shrink up and survive this cold winter.

Without the supplies looted from Dahua, the winter of the Numa tribe would not be easy. As nomads, winter is already an ordeal for them, otherwise they wouldn't have to rush to raid the surrounding area in autumn.

Influenced by Dahua's heavy military policy, the life of the Numa tribe has become more and more difficult in recent years, and the current emperor of Dahua has expressed in the court that he will completely conquer the Numa tribe within a few years. And this time the Dahua army set out to open the way for large-scale expeditions in the future.

As a pioneer, at the beginning of spring this year, the Dahua army left Shacheng and headed straight to the northwest.

Their target is the lush grassland in the northwest.
