There is a road in the wilderness, with nine twists and turns and eight bends in all directions.
This sentence means that leading from the Western Regions to the Central Plains, one must pass through the Great Wasteland, and the Great Wasteland is also different from ordinary plateaus. It not only contains sand seas and Gobi deserts, but also grasslands and loess plateaus.
This ancient road had a name during the Han Dynasty, called the Ancient Silk Road.
The Han Dynasty in the Middle Ages had an extremely vast territory and a strong military force. Countries from all over the world came to Chang'an, the capital, to pay their respects. As the most powerful country at that time, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty sent envoys to various countries several times. On the one hand, he wanted to appease all parties.
On the one hand, it also shows off one's strength.
In the Middle Ages, the Central Plains was famous for its rich production of silk, tea, and porcelain. Countries in the Western Regions loved the silk of the Central Plains Dynasty very much, and considered being able to wear silk as the greatest honor in life.
The first envoy from the Han Dynasty to the Western Regions was named Zhang Qian. The road he took on his mission to the Western Regions was the famous Silk Road. This road started from the capital city of Chang'an, went westward, exited Yumen, and passed through Da Da
The nine-turn and eight-turn valley road in the wilderness reaches all countries in the Western Region.
This Silk Road, because of this mission, brought unprecedented business opportunities and prosperity to the Han Dynasty, and also brought countless wars. Later, with the change of dynasties, wars became frequent and were eventually lost in the history.
The long river can no longer find its former prosperity.
In the blink of an eye, the prosperous Silk Road has turned into a desolate ancient Silk Road.
Wanma City is a majestic city located between the Zhuolang River and the Ancient Silk Road. It is built on the Helan Mountain. The terrain is extremely special, with the Helan Mountain in the back, the Zhuolang River in the east, and a road thousands of meters high in the south.
At the foot of the steep slope is the Ancient Silk Road.
Such a majestic city would not be as big as it is today if it were not for the ferocious vision and superb methods of Iron Horse Tengkong.
Unfortunately, the seal of the Mokun Mountain Range has been lifted, and the demons have invaded in a large scale. Soon after, the demons will sweep across the entire human continent. As a major city that bears the brunt, it will be occupied by the demons sooner or later. It really makes people unable to help but give birth to...
Infinite emotion.
Today's battlefield between humans and demons is actually the site of Yumen Pass, the most famous western pass in the Middle Ages. However, Yumen Pass has long been scattered among the world with the dust of history. Although the poor scholar may remember it, he is fighting here.
However, no one knows about the human race.
The billowing smoke and dust rose up on the ancient silk road more than ten miles away from Ten Thousand Horses City. It was like a strong wind blowing up dust all over the sky, and like an earth dragon roaring on the earth. The sound of rumbling hoofs and rattling wheels sounded far away.
It woke up the sweet dream of Ten Thousand Horses City.
There are now many forces stationed in Ten Thousand Horses City. Apart from the 30,000 iron horse army controlled by Ma Xingyun, the lord of Ten Thousand Horses City, there are still more than 50,000 elite soldiers from various ministries left behind.
Among the more than 50,000 soldiers, except for Kang Long's 3,000 Shenwu Army, the remaining 47,000 troops were mostly from various forces, and they were all forces that had more or less business dealings with Ten Thousand Horses City.
In fact, most of these stationed soldiers are of the reconnaissance type. Most of them are responsible for spying and delivering news. Changes in various parts of the Central Plains and news on the battlefield between humans and demons must be conveyed through them.
Naturally, the scouts in the city had received news from the commanders on the human-demonic battlefield hundreds of miles away half a day ago, so they knew that these were the group of people who had retreated from the human-demonic battlefield.
These people were greedy for life and retreated from the battlefield between humans and demons. Not only did they not show any signs of depression, but they all looked like they had a lucky escape. It is really hateful, sad, and deplorable.
At the head of Ten Thousand Horses City, facing the rising sun, stood a middle-aged man with a majestic look and a relaxed temperament. Next to the middle-aged man stood a young man with a smile on his face. Although the young man had a complexion,
He is elegant and uninhibited, but he is over a foot tall, which is really strange.
"Father, why are you interested in going to the city today? I remember that my father was in seclusion at Wanshou Peak for ten years. At that time, Lei Di was still a slug. I didn't expect that time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, it is already ten years." The young man had a smile on his face.
, standing behind the middle-aged man with his hands lowered, looking at the middle-aged man's upright and powerful back with admiration on his face, with infinite reverence and pride in his expression.
"Yun'er, how is that boy Ben Lei doing with his profound skills now? I haven't seen him for ten years, and I don't know how lazy this boy has become." The middle-aged man seemed to be filled with emotion, but his words were sonorous and powerful.
"Father, don't worry, Lei Di is now prosperous. Qianfan secretly ran away to the Central Plains and met a very good little brother, and the two became brothers of life and death. The little brother's martial arts talent is the only one I have ever seen in my life.
In just less than two years, he has risen from being a master craftsman to a master at the level of a grand master, and what is even more remarkable is that he is now a Jiedu of a town with tens of thousands of armor, and his future is limitless."
Mentioning Naidi and Naidi's friends, the young man's eyes were filled with relief and admiration, and at the same time he could not conceal his envy.
He is the city lord of Ten Thousand Horses City, and he is involved in the life and death plan of the entire Ten Thousand Horses City's 100,000 people. He can't easily leave the city and has almost no friends. Naturally, he envies Nai Di's fortune.
"Oh? This is strange. There is such a talented young man in the world? It seems that my father has been in seclusion for ten years and has become a frog in the well. If I have a chance, I would like to meet Ben Lei's sworn brother. By the way, my father
Just after leaving the customs, I heard that the seal of the Mokun Mountain Range has been lifted, and a war between humans and demons has broken out. What is going on? There are so many people stationed in the city now, what is going on?" The middle-aged man's expression did not change, and he flew in diagonally.
The eyebrows on his temples moved slightly and he asked the young man.
The young man slightly cupped his hands and honestly reported to the middle-aged man one by one what had happened in various parts of the Central Plains and the demon clan in the past six months or so.
The smoke and dust in the west is even bigger, and it has been accompanied by the gradually tightening west wind, blowing towards the city of ten thousand horses standing on a hill thousands of meters high.
After listening to this, the middle-aged man had a look of pain on his face. He seemed to be thinking of some past events, and there seemed to be something he couldn't figure out. However, he had no intention of asking the young man. He just looked at the smoke and dust in the west indifferently, silently.
Silent.
"Father, these people are probably the deserters who withdrew from the war between humans and demons as reported by yesterday's spies. Huh, I really want to raise troops to go out and kill these guys who are greedy for life and fear of death. It's already here, and there are still some people left.
Wishful thinking, if the demons cannot be defeated, the destruction of the human race is imminent, where can there be any paradise?"
The middle-aged man shook his head, and with his eyes that seemed to have seen through the vicissitudes of life, he dreamed of the distant battlefield between humans and demons, and sighed: "Are these the most short-sighted people in the world? Are we going to kill them all? The continent where humans live is so vast.
How can a mere demon be destroyed? Yun'er, after these ten years of training, your vision is still so narrow. It seems that your father has harmed you."
The young man was stunned for a moment, a little at a loss. He did not understand the meaning of the middle-aged man's words, and said in a daze: "Father, why do you say that? Are we just going to let these bastards run away and let the demons run away?"
Invading and occupying ten thousand states of my human race, and killing and subverting the human race, is it not possible?”
"Haha, Yun'er, why have you become as pedantic as your second uncle? This is something I don't want to see. As a father, the reason why these people choose to leave the battlefield is probably not because they are afraid of death, but because they have other plans.
.Now that the seal of the Mokun Mountain Range has been unlocked, I am afraid that two demon armies have already penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Central Plains. If they want to overthrow the human race, they may have already done it. But you have to know that the ancestors of our human race are from the Huaxia clan. Huaxia
The ancestor of the clan, Emperor Xuanyuan, is even more of an immortal figure. The killing moves he left behind to deal with the demons are by no means easy to find and cannot be seen by ordinary people. At the same time, if they can be found, they will probably be of great help to the entire human race.
It may not be that he has not been a father for many years. Don’t make random guesses, let alone belittle yourself.”
