Behind the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons, Frostwind Valley.
This place is plagued by extremely cold winds all the year round, and any monk who is exposed to it will die immediately, and his body and soul will be frozen...
Only in the winter months of every year, when the world's frost wind sweeps across the territory, will the extremely cold wind here briefly disperse, allowing the passage to pass.
During this month, the fighting between humans and monsters around this passage is often more intense than the frost wind.
In the winter moon of Frostwind Valley, red and white are common.
At one of the cols, there was a man standing tall, listening to what the people next to him were saying, nodding from time to time. "Hmm.", "Oh.", "That's it."
This man has white robes and a silver spear, clear eyebrows and clear eyes. He is truly unparalleled in his grace. He is planning Zhaonan for the Qi Dynasty.
Frostwind Valley is not an exclusive area for any party. Every time it is opened, all forces can send people over to compete with the monsters for resources here. No matter what discords there are in the world, at least behind the Gate of Ten Thousand Monsters, we must fight against the monsters together.
This is the righteousness of the human race.
The man in front of Ji Zhaonan seemed to have seen the hope of successful lobbying, and he spoke excitedly, with the attitude of scolding Fang Qiu.
As Ji Zhaonan listened, he suddenly raised his hand, and the world-famous spear flew across the sky like snow, penetrated his throat, and protruded from the back of the man's head!
The life was annihilated along with the sound, and the person fell onto the white snow of Frostwind Valley.
What happened is very simple.
After a great battle, the demon tribe temporarily retreated, and Ji Zhaonan and the others occupied this mountain col.
This man suddenly came over and exchanged a few words in the name of a comrade-in-arms. As they chatted and chatted, they seemed to mention something unintentionally. It was nothing more than about "when the birds are gone, a good bow is hidden", and about the mutual jealousy between kings and ministers.
What kind of military gods are in danger——
Ji Zhaonan didn't wait for him to finish.
It is taboo to kill people behind the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons, but there are really not many fools who can fight in Frostwind Valley.
Everyone can see what happened to that person just now.
After taking the initiative to bring the disputes in the world to the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons and saying some provocative words, Ji Zhaonan just listened to them. If he didn't listen and killed someone, he wouldn't have to blame anyone.
In front of everyone, how many people really can’t see right from wrong?
Those who can't see clearly are mostly because they have fixed opinions or don't want to see.
"Why are you so mean?"
Standing on a huge rock opposite was a man wearing a black Taoist robe with a sword on his back. His temperament was originally cold and stern, but now he had a bit of a smile: "This man makes a lot of sense, and he also thinks about you, master and disciple!"
But it is Jingguo God who comes from heaven and returns home with pride.
In the present world, they were fighting life and death, holding swords against each other. But after arriving at the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons, they could chat with each other calmly, and even kill monsters side by side.
This is the world behind the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons.
A world that cannot be said to be crueler or purer.
"Soldiers are deceitful and use every possible means. To be able to convey the message here is a sign that someone from the Xia Kingdom has some skills."
Ji Zhaonan curled his lips: "Are you just too stupid? What's the use of passing these words to me? Even if I am persuaded, am I not afraid of death?"
Chunyu Gui laughed.
After laughing, Fang said: "You don't have to be so afraid of death. I, the gate of Jingguo, are willing to open the door for you, Ji Zhaonan, to see who can kill you?"
Ji Zhaonan thought for a moment as if he was very interested, and then said: "What was the name of the genius of your inner palace who died last year?"
Chunyu Gui shrugged his shoulders: "It is inevitable that there will be accidents in life."
Ji Zhaonan said: "Then you have too many surprises!"
"Each other." Chunyu Guidao.
"Oh, unexpected!" Ji Zhaonan sighed.
Chun Yugui stepped lightly on the stone under his feet, and suddenly asked: "Tell me the truth. Was Zhao Xuanyang killed by all of you?"
He looked at Ji Zhaonan and emphasized: "Humans do not lie to humans."
"Yes." Ji Zhaonan nodded without hesitation.
He even recounted the process with great interest: "Originally, the Qi people were hospitable and enthusiastic. Jiang Wang gave Zhao Xuanyang face and stayed with him for a few days. Unexpectedly, Zhao Xuanyang's fellow was so aggressive that he wanted to take Jiang Wang to Yujing Mountain. Jiang Wang
He said, if you let go now, I will spare your life. Zhao Xuanyang was furious and took action, using a move of the Tianjue Earth Destruction Sword. That guy flattened the mountains. How can I, the genius of the Qi Kingdom, be easy to deal with? One strike of the sword.
Immortal - tsk tsk, behead him until there is no residue left!"
Chunyu Gui sneered: "Have a rest. He can't even defeat Zhongxuanzun, so he wants to kill Zhao Xuanyang with his head?"
"Is there any necessary connection between whether or not he can defeat Chong Xuanzun and whether he can kill Zhao Xuanyang?" Ji Zhaonan said: "The true strength of our Qi people will be revealed at the critical moment of life and death!"
Chunyu Guileng said: "When the Stone Rhinoceros Demon King comes over later, you should let me see it."
Ji Zhaonan smiled: "If it is to avenge you, I will."
There were scattered people around, but the people on both sides of Qi Jing were okay, each was silent and serious.
People from other countries all looked like they were watching a show, enjoying their bickering happily.
Chunyu Gui was too lazy to speak anymore.
But Ji Zhaonan said again: "What did you just say? Jiang Wang can't defeat Zhongxuanzun? The inner government can't defeat the outer building. Isn't it normal? Isn't it worth saying?"
"How long has it been since you left the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons?" Chunyu Gui said: "Jiang Wang's fourth floor is complete, and Chongxuan Zun has arrived!"
"Young people are terrible!" Ji Zhaonan sighed, and then said: "Why do you care so much about us Qi people? Is it because your Jing country has become rotten and there is no one worth caring about anymore?"
Regarding the temptation in Ji Zhaonan's mouth, Chun Yugui just smiled and said: "I only know that your reputation as the number one person under thirty years old in Qi State will no longer be preserved. What about Wushuang Armor and Shaohua Spear? It's really ridiculous. People take it away.
You are the same generation as you, but now I am in the same situation as you, and all your glory has been taken away!"
Ji Zhaonan also laughed: "Although your method of provoking a general is stupid and ugly. But I have to admit to you that I was provoked. Wait, I will teach him a lesson when I get back."
But as soon as the laughter fell to the ground, Daoyuan surged into his body, and he jumped out of the mountain col with his gun in hand.
Chun Yu returned without any delay, and went with him quickly, with the long sword already in his hand.
Woo~
Woo~
Woo~~
The sound is like the horn of a bull, the demon clan is coming!
…

"Of course, the collision between two major powers will ultimately be reflected in the use of force. But war at the national level is by no means limited to force."
In the darkness, a voice said this: "Jiang Shu broke Jianfeng Mountain before the meeting of the Yellow River to let the Xia people see the reality clearly, recognize the gap, and lose their courage.
To solve the problem of Yitian Guan is to strip away the Xia Kingdom’s external influence.
With such a set of tactics, the hard shell of Xia Kingdom has been broken into pieces. It is really a decisive victory."
"So, in your opinion, Qi Faxia's overall situation has been decided?" another voice asked.
Both voices were very ethereal, covering up the Tao and the secrets of heaven, making it completely impossible to hear their true appearance.
The previous voice said: "Victory by force does not mean victory by force... How can there be a sure-win situation? The Xia Kingdom will not be slaughtered by others. Although Si Yuan died, his legacy has not disappeared. The strong army has been exhausted, but the bloody courage is still there. Such a
The shell of the country has been broken into pieces, but the big claws are still there. Even the claws are broken, there are still sharp claws, strong teeth, and barbs in the flesh, so it is not so easy to eat! And the victory of the Xia Kingdom is in one piece,
The victory of Qi State in one game is very difficult and easy. In my opinion, the result is uncertain."
Si Yuan was the real name of Emperor Xia Xiang back then.
The latter voice knew it, and just asked: "So do you think we should take a risk this time?"
"King Zhao has made it clear that he will not get involved in this war... Do you have time?" the previous voice asked calmly.
"Haha." The latter voice said: "Time is very important to us, but it is also very unimportant. I just think that letting Jiang Shu swallow Xia is not a good choice."
"Who do you think Jiang Mengxiong is waiting for? Who is Jiang Shu waiting for when he is in Linzi?" The previous voice said: "Since you know that this action is an 'adventure', then we should not take action."
The latter voice was silent for a moment and said: "You are right."
"We'll see." The previous voice responded with the same words: "Time is very important to us, but it is also very unimportant."
The latter voice smiled in a low voice and suddenly said: "Holy Duke, I have always been curious. Who are you?"
"I don't want to know who you are," said the previous voice. "I only know your ideals and your ambitions. Why should you reveal your face if you share the same goals?"
"Perhaps sometimes in life, we are far away... It's hard to know the innermost feelings of people who meet each other. How many people go to the same place and end together?" The latter voice said: "But you are right, so be it."
Both voices then dispersed.
If anyone could observe this conversation, they would surely be surprised by the identity of the interlocutor.
Because Sheng Gong, Shen Xia, and Zhao Wang... are the three leaders of the Ping Dynasty!
All this time, the dragon has never seen its end.
In the end, he disappeared and was not heard by the world.
…
…
It was November 15th, the year 3920 of the Taoist calendar.
Cao Cao led a million Qi troops to the east. All the small countries along the way avoided the road. The army was overwhelming and banners were flying, and they finally reached the border of Xia Kingdom.
Several small countries even took the initiative to mobilize their armies to go to war with Qi's army.
However, Cao Jie did not recruit any soldiers, saying that "only a million generals can do it, and there cannot be a master beyond the palm of your hand."
They did not even collect food and fodder supplies, but strictly ordered the countries along the way to keep the supply lines of the army open.
Necessary military supplies set out with the army.
In an era when the state system prevailed, the so-called supplies in war would not be carried out in trucks as in the sect era when subjects and civilians were fighting.
Ordinary storage boxes have limited storage capacity and cannot meet the needs of the army.
Those appliances that are extremely small in size and have huge storage space are also very valuable and cannot be widely used in the military.
As far as the Qi State is concerned, the storage square carts produced by the weapon-making workshop are usually used to transport supplies, and the wind-chasing demon horses are used to carry them, and a special escort officer is responsible for them.
These escort officers are all warriors in the army who are selected from the best and have extraordinary strength. They have a very high status in the army and stand side by side with the flag soldiers. They are generally called "two guys" by ordinary sergeants, which are "flag guys" and "grain guys".
"Lao". Ji Zhaonan was born in Qilao back then.
No matter what position they hold, when soldiers talk to each other, they will be very proud when they talk about which year and which army I was a grain man in.
The storage limit of the storage cart and the speed of the beast of burden are all areas that fortification officials need to work hard on. And this kind of effort, to a certain extent, is a reflection of national strength.
The strength of the major hegemonic countries is indeed strength in all aspects. It is hidden in the people's livelihood, displayed in the military, and expressed in the court.
The supplies for a hundred thousand troops, a team of escort officers, and a dozen storage square cars can complete one trip.
In the great war of the national era.
The loss of supply has been greatly reduced, the speed of supply has increased unprecedentedly, and the pressure on the supply line has also been greatly reduced.
Of course, supply is still the top priority when marching and forming.
Cao Cao led his army eastward, set up flags along the way, and asked other countries to guard him.
This kind of war flag has a name, which is "Zhengqi".
Generally speaking, it has the functions of warning, holding the route, and attacking.
"Warning" is easy to understand, and can even be said to be the most important ability of flag collection, which can well ensure the safety of supplies.
All the levy flags sense each other. It can be regarded as long-distance communication to a certain extent. Although it can only transmit very simple warning information. However, the levy flag, a military weapon, is currently the only one that can
An artifact that maintains long-distance sensing during the war! You can imagine how precious it is.
The second is "holding the path". The levy flag has two effects in this regard. One is to gather the energy of heaven and earth in the place where it is established, which can help the escort officer and the wind-chasing demon horse who come with the order to quickly recover. The other is
Within the scope of influence, the flying speed of the order-bearing escort officer and the wind-chasing demon horse is increased. These two effects are very important on long supply lines.
In addition, the Zhengqi generally also has certain offensive capabilities. Within the coverage of the Zhengqi, the escort officer can borrow the power of the Zhengqi to fight.
The levy flag is so important, and Qi's "Ziji Zheng" is even more outstanding. It is an important military weapon that has blessed the power of Qi!
From the Qi border to the Xia border, a solid supply line was established along the way.
Each flag pole is guarded by dedicated soldiers. But at the same time, the countries along the way must also provide corresponding protection during the war. If anything is missing... the hegemon will be held accountable!
War is not a duel between one or two people, nor is it simply drawing a sword to decide life and death.
It's about eating horse chews, walking, sitting, lying down, eating, drinking, and urinating. Thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of times... how can we control it freely?
Once there are more than ten thousand people, there is no limit.
With more than one hundred thousand soldiers, it is like a vast ocean.
The one who generals thousands of troops is the dragon and the phoenix among the people.
Those who have one hundred thousand generals are the most talented people in the world.
To be the commander of a million-strong army, a general of unparalleled fame cannot be qualified.
On November 7th, the Qi army set off for the expedition and arrived in Xia on November 15th.
In just eight days, a million troops were brought to the Xia Kingdom in an orderly manner. The troops were in good order and the troops were as powerful as dragons. This really reflects the quality of a famous general.
Of course, for Cao Jie, this was normal and not something worth boasting about.
The first challenge before him now is that Xia Jun directly abandoned the national border, chose to fortify the wall and clear the country, created a hundred miles of white land, and set up countless traps, either with Taoism, equipment, or mechanisms... in order to delay
The Qi army marched forward.
The second challenge is behind the Baili White Land, the Jianfeng Mountain that looks like a hole in the sky...
On Jianfeng Mountain, the Min King of Daxia, Yu Liyang, was personally in charge.
This is the first confrontation between Cao Jiu and Yu Liyang.
No one wants a second time.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
By the way, I just received the physical book when the courier opened today, so I can write the plot based on the paper map.
It's not as big as I thought. I thought it was a big map that could be hung on the wall. I took a pen and circled it, and it felt like Cao Jie was scolding Fang Qiu...
But now this one is about the size of my computer screen.
