In the quiet courtyard of Huxin, the handwritten letter from the Northern Wei emperor had fallen into the charcoal brazier in front of Xiao Yan. Most of the letter had turned into ashes, and some of the edges were slowly burning in the charcoal brazier.

Shortly after talking to the old monk, Xiao Yan's requirements for daily life were simpler. He only ate one meal a day, but later it turned out to ate one meal a few days.

Even the charcoal brazier in front of him was a pretext for the person who delivered food today to freeze the elderly official before he placed it here in advance. There was no charcoal brazier here on weekdays.

Now few people can understand why he did this, but Xiao Yan himself understood that everything he needed was limited to living, and what he thought would be very different from the past.

He also began to understand the meaning of such assassination monks who practiced without deliberately torture themselves.

For him at this time, he didn't care about many of the original things, but some things should be cherished more.

As for the letter from the Northern Wei emperor, he quickly forgot some of the contents after reading it. It was like the ripples in the water dispersed and disappeared naturally, but some feelings were more clearly lingering in his heart.

In addition to those words, he understood more about the emotions of the Northern Wei emperors.

He empathized with it.

Because no matter whether it is right or wrong, he lost his mother, and so did the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

It is not suitable for starting large-scale wars in the middle of winter, and road transport will have great problems. In severe cold weather, there will be a large number of non-combat attrition, and even many armor wears problems.

However, in the Northern Wei Dynasty, a large number of border troops passed through half of the Northern Wei territory like migrating ants. Under the emperor's order, they resolutely launched a war against the Guanlong He family.

It is more revenge than war.

The Northern Wei Dynasty was a great dynasty, and the wars of dynasties required far-reaching consequences. However, many years ago, the revenge of the tribes in the north did not consider the price they had to pay at all.

With clear clues that can prove that the Demon Sect came from the control of these descendants of the You Emperor, the revenge of the Northern Wei Dynasty was not like the revenge of a huge dynasty, but like the revenge of those tribes.

...

A cavalry of the Northern Wei Dynasty appeared in the plains at the foot of Longshan Mountain.

Not far away in front of them was Tianwuchuan, an important fortress of the He family in Guanlong.

In the impression of these border troops, Tianwuchuan is a town, but from a distance, they realized that this "town" is much larger than many border towns they had previously stationed on the border.

Looking at the many flashing cold lights on the tall city wall covered with frost, the cavalry did not get too close and began to camp.

Their more than 2,000 people were not even considered a vanguard army, but were just the path-exploring scouts before the vanguard army. Not far behind them, they followed the 30,000 vanguard army, and behind the 30,000 vanguard army, there were an army of more than 200,000.

The cavalry did not choose to do any defense and did not prepare for any battle at all, but just as they began to spread out the camp tents and had not yet fixed the four corners of the camp tent, they heard the tide-like whistling and horse hooves.

The cavalry was not panicked, but looked towards the direction of Tianwuchuan in an incomprehensible manner.

A shock and even more incomprehensible light soon appeared in their eyes.

They saw a cavalry rushing out from Tianwuchuan.

A large number of cavalry continued to emerge from several city gates in Tianwuchuan and continued to rush into the plain covered with frost.

They did not expect that the Guanlong He family's army would not rely on the thick city walls to defend themselves, but instead chose to attack directly.

The general of this Northern Wei cavalry was a man in his thirties.

Among all the generals of the border army, he was still young.

Seeing that the enemy troops that had flowed out of Tianwuchuan several times theirs in a short period of time, he did not issue any military orders immediately after abnormal behavior.

The horses under them were already exhausted.

The other cavalry did not seem to just want to intimidate them, so at this time he knew that all the brothers behind him were also very clear. They had two choices, one was to stimulate the war horses under him as much as possible to see if they could escape to the location of the vanguard army in the rear.

Another option is to die here.

Even if it was several months in the morning, even if it was facing the Southern Dynasties army, this young Northern Wei cavalry general would probably choose the former.

But this cavalry general and the cavalry behind him did not want to escape.

Like all the border generals who did not hesitate to support the emperor's decision, a strange mood and anger that was originally a little hazy rose violently in their eyes.

"What's wrong with the descendants of Emperor You?"

"We are all from the Northern Wei Dynasty. We originally regarded you as brothers and sisters, but you used the Demon Sect to massacre brothers and sisters."

"If there are too many people, they will be very aggressive. Do you think we will be afraid of you?"

With the low and resolute roars, the young Northern Wei general and all the cavalry behind him all turned over. Instead of fleeing towards the wilderness behind them, they resolutely rushed towards the cavalry in front.

They knew that they could not win at all, but what they wanted was not victory. They just wanted to kill as many enemies as possible, and when they were going to die, they would let more enemy troops die.

This Northern Wei cavalry soon met the Guanlong cavalry that surged out of Tianwuchuan.

Facing the cavalry that was several times more than them, this Northern Wei cavalry stabbed in like a sharp arrow, bringing out a wave of blood, and then disappearing in an instant.

Just as the Northern Wei cavalry thought at the beginning, the Guanlong cavalry did not expect that they would counterattack like this fiercely. The number of Guanlong cavalry fell to the ground was much more than theirs.

After a very short battle, the outflow of troops from several city gates opened in Tianwuchuan Cave did not stop.

The cavalry, infantry, light armored army, heavy armored army... are still gushing out like a tide and spreading on the plains.

Without any signs or dialogue, the war between the He clan of Guanlong and the Northern Wei army broke out directly.

The military strength of the Tianwuchuan garrison exceeded the expectations of the Northern Wei border army from the beginning, with more than 80,000. In the rear of Tianwuchuan, the Guanlong He family's army was still gathering and gathering in Tianwuchuan, and then pouring out from Tianwuchuan and then pouring into this plain.

In just a few days, more than 400,000 troops on both sides began to strangle wildly in the plain outside Tianwuchuan.

In continuous battles, even though all armies have a certain amount of reserves of spiritual medicine, in such a spiritual waste era, in continuous battles, most of the practitioners in the army have no time to replenish their true energy. They will be killed at any time in the stormy battlefield and become corpses in the blood mud.

Compared with the war between the Southern Dynasties just beginning a few years ago, the number of practitioners is decreasing, and the true energy in the body of practitioners participating in the battle is also decreasing sharply and cannot be replenished. In the previous few days of fighting, practitioners seem to have not played any leading role. Even the true energy heavy armor that the Northern Wei is proud of has hardly appeared on the battlefield.

However, every general of the Northern Wei border army knew very well that the Guanlong He army launched an attack on such a plain, which could only contain two intentions.

The first layer of purpose is that they begin to officially enter the world and become the masters of the world. When they cannot cleanse up some notoriety, they will at least need to give real benefits to all the people in the territory.

They do not want the war to burn within their territory.

Another meaning is that they do not think this is a suicide attack. No matter how powerful the He army in Guanlong is, it is impossible to compete with the border troops of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Luoyang army. Moreover, in the north, the army of the surviving clans will also launch an attack on Guanlong.

If they want to win this war, they must rely on extraordinary practitioners.

So even in the early stages of the war, it seemed that the role of the practitioners was infinitely weakened, every border general of the Northern Wei Dynasty knew very well that at some point, some special practitioners of the Guanlong He family would definitely appear on the battlefield.

In a seemingly ordinary chariot, Zhongshan Wang Yuanying was wearing a thick blanket, revealing only his eyes to look at the bloody world ahead.

For the high-level generals of the Northern Wei Dynasty's border army, their supreme commander on the front battlefield this time was still Zhongshan Wang Yuanying.

Even though he was defeated in the Battle of Zhongli, the complaints mostly came from the people. In many military reviews later, every high-level general of the Northern Wei border army knew that all the military use and dispatch of Zhongshan Wang Yuanying before the Battle of Zhongli were almost impeccable and perfect.

The only accident came from Lin Yi who came out of nowhere.

But before this, no one would have thought that such a pride of emperor would appear in the Southern Dynasty.

So even though Zhongshan Wang Yuanying was forced to step down after that war, he was soon secretly transferred to the public, just to calm the public's resentment.

These generals of the Northern Wei army were very convinced by Yuan Ying.

Yuanying himself knew very well that on this battlefield, he was not the real commander or protagonist.

And compared with any battle formation he had experienced before, he had no confidence in this battle formation.

He didn't even know what kind of opponent he had to face.

But he looked at the bloody world ahead, the arrows roaring in the air and the blood splashing out, his mood was unprecedentedly calm.

Life has ending times.

His thoughts at this time were similar to those of the young cavalry general at the beginning.

He could even feel the mood of the young cavalry general at that time.
