Jingjiang Xu Mansion, Library Pavilion.

Xu Yuan sat by the window and quietly browsed the Grade C internal reference that Ying'er had just sent to him personally.

The communication with the old aunt Lou Ji two days ago made Xu Yuan know that the internal reference in his family was also hierarchical.

A very strict grading system,

A, B, C, D, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Rengui are ranked ten from top to bottom.

What kind of status, strength, and what kind of contribution can be viewed at what level are clearly broken down by the internal reference.

Complete information about the war in the north belongs to Class IIIC,

Due to the ridiculous things he had done before, even Lou Ji couldn't tell him directly. She needed to ask his father.

After all,

If he takes it out and sells it again, it will be a lot of fun.

It took two days to deliver it. I guess his father must have agreed to this.

The sun was just right, and a gentle breeze was blowing between the rise and fall of birds and geese.

Xu Yuan has liked this feeling since his previous life.

A cup of tea, a book, and an afternoon.

Leisurely and comfortable.

But as he continued to browse the internal reference, Xu Yuan found that he could no longer relax.

Barbarians......

Xu Yuan rubbed his eyebrows.

There is a world line in Cangyuan, and the final BOSS that players need to face is the barbarians who have been defeated all the way from the north, but the plot does not mention the current war at all.

Now that I look at it, it’s really a bit too bad.

Seven years ago, when Marquis Wu Cheng was still guarding the northern border, the barbarians outside the frontier fortress were beaten so hard that they could not even raise their heads. However, since Marquis Wu Cheng, the Dinghai Shenzhen, was recalled to the imperial capital for some reasons seven years ago, the situation has changed.

A sudden turn of events.

Generally speaking, it is an internal fight that causes trouble, causing the self-respect of the bandits to go out of play.

The relationship within the Dayan Border Army is very complicated.

Due to the laws set by the founder of the dynasty and each sect, each sect paid a price for not having to pay taxes.

In terms of local governance, they need to unconditionally assist the court in ensuring the safety of the people.

In terms of the armament system, the sect needs to send a part of its disciples every year to be dispersed and reorganized into the armies of the Great Yan Dynasty to accept dispatch, and so on.

The original intention was good, and these laws indeed played a very positive role when the imperial power was strong. However, as the evolution of thousands of years and the rise and fall of imperial power, these laws gradually changed.

There are many frontier armies on the mountain. The imperial court and the sects, the sects and the sects, the sects and the big families basically blame each other when fighting.

The most typical one is the current northern border.

As Marquis Wu Cheng was transferred back to the imperial capital, there was no one in the northern border who could dominate all parties, and the mountains of all parties were like a plate of loose sand.

It is normal for the friendly troops in the front ten miles to fight alone and fight bloody battles, but for the ten miles behind us to watch the battle.

Now Hanbeicheng has not been defeated entirely because the family wealth of the Great Yan Dynasty is too strong. Even so, the barbarians on the other side can only encroach on it due to internal fighting.

This point is similar to what Xu Yuan understood in his previous life.

Dayan is worthy of the name of the dynasty.

Whether it's the ancient abyss in the southwest, the barbarians in the north, or the desert in the northwest, they basically wait until several major forces within the Great Yan Dynasty get their wits about them before they dare to enter the field to pick peaches.

Then he was defeated by the protagonist of the plot controlled by Xu Yuan as the final BOSS.

After gathering his thoughts, apart from the breeze, there was only the sound of rustling pages turning in the room.

Suddenly,

Xu Yuan's eyes flashed with surprise, and his fingers that turned the page paused slightly.

Wait,

Is this barbarian not human?

Xu Yuan saw an illustration on top of the internal reference sent by Lou Ji.

It is not a photo, but the pen and ink are extremely concise and realistic, depicting a scene of a battlefield.

On the broken city wall, there are corpses everywhere. There are soldiers in frontier uniforms, cultivators in sect costumes, and barbarians from the north.

And those barbarians don’t look like humans.

After two seconds of silence, Xu Yuan slowly stood up and went to the bookshelf to find a book.

A quarter of an hour later, Xu Yuan sat back by the window, holding a fairly new copy of "Records of the Northern Barbarians" in his hand.

After a cursory glance, Xu Yuan's expression was a little strange.

Barbarians were not a scornful term used by the Dayan Dynasty for the nomadic people outside the Great Wall.

Barbarians are barbarians.

Although it is also humanoid, it is more similar to a green-skinned or black-skinned humanoid creature.

He didn't know this in his previous life, or there was no need to know.

He understands Gu Yuan because following Gu Yuan allows him to become a reckless hero or even a dragon knight.

And the Northern Barbarians don't have any shit, and they don't have a Paper Man wife, so why does he care about this?

There is little introduction, and even the important bosses are not drawn in real time. It is completely unrealistic to expect the monster models to be more refined in a 2.5D pixel style game. Many material stickers are basically reused with different colors.

Xu Yuan always thought that these barbarians were just a group of stronger humans.

Only now did I realize that the other party was not a human being.

The average height of these adult barbarians is more than one foot. Born in a bitter cold land, their dark brown hard skin is difficult to penetrate with swords. There are sharp bone spurs in their fists and various important joints, as if they were born for fighting.

A kind of intelligent humanoid monster.

After knowing this, Xu Yuan was not in the mood to make a fuss.

I have seen both the Stone Buddha and the Seven Lives Python, so naturally I will not be too surprised by this kind of humanoid monster.

But I do understand why there are so many external forces, only the barbarians don’t have Paper Man wives.

So ugly.

After putting down the "Records of the Northern Barbarians", Xu Yuan continued to read the internal reference book attentively.

Browsing to the end of the internal reference is the battle report of the northern border in the past week.

As of the day before yesterday.

After more than a month of fierce fighting, Princess Wu Yuan finally relieved the siege of Hanbei City.

Of course, to be able to successfully rescue the siege, the 30,000 imperial guards brought by the princess alone were not enough. Most of them were the result of compromises between various local forces.

Having said that, the process described in the internal reference gave Xu Yuan a lot of insights.

What the hell,

It turns out that some people really will fight among themselves when the enemy is at war.

Before Princess Wu Yuan led her army to Hanbei City,

Those who were surrounded and killed by the barbarians on all sides of the mountains in Hanbei City actually still had the strength to fight the barbarians, and their hard power was even worse.

But they didn't fight, they just stayed in the city and fought among themselves.

No one wants to go first, everyone wants to preserve their strength.

Anyway, with the various formations on Hanbei City, it will be impossible for those barbarians to break in for a while.

And the news has been sent out, just wait for reinforcements from the court.

If reinforcements don't come, then we will have more military ration reserves than anyone else.

When your family runs out of rations, your soldiers have to eat, right?

Isn’t it bad if you want to eat without doing anything?

As for mutiny in the city?

If you go outside and fight the barbarians, you still have a chance to survive. If you mutiny when there is a large formation in the city, you will be waiting for death, and you can also kill the nine tribes.

This situation was not completely resolved until Princess Wu Yuan led the imperial army to arrive.

The former Ninth Princess was a hostage sent by the royal family to the Wuchenghou Mansion in the north.

But because Marquis Wu Cheng is a loyal royalist, the ninth princess's treatment is better than that of the princes in the Marquis's mansion.

The Ninth Princess showed interest when she was a child, and Wu Chenghou took her with him when he went out to fight, and even asked her to lead the army himself when she grew up.

He was brought up by Wu Chenghou in the army.

After accumulating like this little by little, Princess Wuyuan gained a high prestige in the military.

Of course,

The main reason why these old bastards are so cooperative is because the first thing this crazy woman does after entering the city is to call everyone to a meeting to behead her head.

Those who neglect their duties and cause the war situation to deteriorate should be executed.

As soon as he finished speaking, a third-grade grand master and seven or eight fourth-grade body-melting lieutenants were directly bombarded into a pulp in the palace hall.

Use the large formation in the city.

Under normal circumstances, the royal bloodline has always been the first priority in the formation control of each big city.

In this way, under the coordination of Princess Wu Yuan, the siege of Hanbei City was lifted, and the lost territory has now begun to be gradually recovered.
