Snowfield City is very well-known, not only because this city is the country of the Hami Empire, but more importantly, there are three most difficult cities to conquer in the world, and Snowfield City is one of them.
The city walls are all 23 meters high, ranging from 10 meters below the ground to the 30-meter-high towers. They are all built with huge stones from Longya Mountain. The city is 10 meters wide and can accommodate 15 snow wolves in parallel.
Within ten kilometers outside the city, there are a few small lakes in the plains, and there are only two or three months of non-freezing period in a year.
Ten kilometers away is the forest, an endless coniferous forest with ice and snow all year round.
Snowfield City is difficult to conquer because its four natural advantages of heavy snow, forests, plains, and city walls constitute its unique insurmountable barriers.
Only snow wolves or infantry can successfully cross the snow and forest. In the plains, no infantry can withstand the impact of snow wolves. After the double blow, the 20-meter-high city wall constitutes an insurmountable obstacle.
If someone wants to besiege the city, the frozen continent only has three months of non-freezing period in a year, which means that the city can be besieged for only three months at most. What does this mean to Snowfield City?

The night is getting darker and darker, and the moonlight shines through the rolling clouds and sheds pink moonlight on the silver snow.
The four sleds of the envoy quickly shuttled through the dense forest. Although they had walked out of the ice and snow forest, the towering coniferous forest along the way was still densely packed with trees. Each sled was equipped with 12 snow dogs, and the leading dog was
Under the leadership of the leader, he ran extremely fast, breathing loudly from time to time.
On the sled at the front were two Imperial soldiers with a guide; behind them were Amy and Da Qingshan; and behind them were an Imperial soldier and two girls; and the last ones were three Imperial soldiers.
On a sled in the middle, there was a faint conversation between two girls.
"Yushang, why are you so brave? Do you dare to believe Da Qingshan and Amy?" Sha Ruo whispered in his companion's ear.
"Hey, the baby is not big, so I have a lot of worries." Lin Yushang laughed out loud: "Don't underestimate them. I dare to choose them for several reasons. First of all, their strength is extraordinary. Look at the one named Ai
After the boy from Mi shouted, everyone fell down, and before and after they took the task, although many people were jealous, no one dared to challenge them. What does that mean? Secondly, I understand their background, you
Do you know? That Amy
He has three attributes: swordsman, neutral second-level magician, and magic swordsman. If a boy of his age were in the imperial capital, most of them would still be studying in swordsmen or magic academies, and they would often not even be able to complete a single course of study.
Okay, and he only has three attributes. Isn't that simple? He is Lei Ge's apprentice. I suspect he is also a descendant of an imperial noble. Look at his expression. As for Daqingshan, it is even more amazing. Do you know?
?He is a dragon knight, look at the sky..."
"Oh, what is that?" Sha Ruo exclaimed.
"I think that's the dragon of Daqingshan." Lin Yushang said with certainty: "Last point, I actually quite appreciate their clear eyes without any impurities. This trip is so dangerous, if there are evil people... I think
They won't be that kind of people."
"Hehe, Sister Shang, you are just worrying..." Sha Ruo suddenly laughed inexplicably: "When I first saw you in the imperial capital, so many young people were surrounding you. Haha, so you
You always think bad things about others."
"Ha, you dare to laugh at me, aren't you?" Yushang raised her slender hands high in an attempt to strike.
"Haha, Sister Chang, please spare me." Sha Ruo smiled and stretched out his hand to stop her: "I grew up in the church. When I was a child, everyone around me was from the church, and our church was clearly divided.
, the area where I live is almost entirely occupied by women, and the men I saw this time when I came out were more than the total number of men I have known in the past 16 years."
"Little girl, are you excited? Have you fallen in love with a handsome guy? Let me introduce him to you." Yushang smiled narrowly.
On the silver snow, the silver bell-like laughter of two girls came...
"Da Qingshan, what are those two girls laughing at?" Amy couldn't figure it out: "It's really annoying. It's so late and they don't let anyone sleep. I'm going to ask them for sleep loss compensation tomorrow!"
Contrary to imagination, the journey was very safe. There were no strange noises that could indicate that someone would attack the mission. Lu'er often flew high in the sky to search, but found nothing. During the march, the head dog only made occasional noises.
There was the sound of barking and barking, and then there was just the rustle of the sled across the snow.
There are still three days to go to Snowfield City. When all the imperial soldiers let out a long breath, Amy's face became more and more solemn. After dinner, he invited everyone to gather at the bonfire.
Bian, spoke his mind very solemnly.
"We are in very danger now!" Amy said in shock.
Yushang frowned: "Why do you say that?"
An imperial soldier next to him whispered: "I think you want to charge more mercenary fees, blackmail."
Amy seemed to have not heard anything and continued talking to herself: "Why didn't the enemy come to chase us? Have you thought about it?" After a slight pause, he continued: "If it is really as you said.
That means the enemy knows your route very well and is very organized.
We will track them down along the way. I guess they all may know about the mercenaries. For them, they should clearly realize that we are not taking the Longya Mountain Highway. If they chase us along the way, it will be very detrimental to them. The cavalry is here.
Very little in the forest and snow. So what are they going to do?"
A few words immediately attracted everyone, and everyone was thinking.
"If it were me, I wouldn't pursue you along the way. Now that I know the final destination of the envoy, it's easy to handle. I can just ride directly to the outside of Snowfield City and wait for you. Place some mobile sentries where they are most likely to appear.
A large group of troops are concentrated on the periphery. Once the signal is received, they will immediately rush to make a surprise attack. At that time, how will the envoys defend themselves?"
Si——Everyone took a breath of air-conditioning.
"Then...then...what should we do?" Thinking of the huge impact of the black cavalry, Yushang's face turned pale.
"Yeah, what's the matter? I've been having a headache. Daqingshan, what do you think?" Amy frowned.
"Well, is it possible to divide the troops into several groups? Then they don't know who to chase." Da Qingshan also frowned.
"Yes!" Amy clapped her hands: "They all know you, so you rush out all the way. After they surround you, Daqingshan and I will go to move the reinforcements. They will definitely not intercept us. I estimate that the reinforcements will be about
It will take an hour to come back, and then we will..."
"Collect the corpses for us -" Yu Shang interrupted Amy with a cold face: "If so, what do we need mercenaries for? Isn't it safer for you to go to Snowfield City by yourself? Do mercenaries sacrifice the interests of their employers to move the rescuers themselves?
?”
"Hehe..." Amy stuck out her tongue: "What I'm talking about is just an idea. Why are you so anxious? I don't necessarily want to do this, although the success rate is 100."
"There is another way, the success rate is also higher, but the risk is the same. Daqingshan, you take one of Yushang or Sha Ruozhong and hide behind, use Lu'er to monitor and see where there are fewer enemies and where to go.
, we attracted the enemies in front, and they all attracted into the dense forest. I estimate that they will leave mobile forces, but there should not be many. The longer we hold them back, the safer you will be. After arriving at Xueyue City, immediately find the defenders.
The city soldiers are here to help."
"No, I'll attract them, and you take them to the city." Da Qingshan refused.
"You have a brain!" Amy slapped Da Qingshan on the back of the head: "Who can successfully break through without Lu'er? Don't... don't tell me to take Lu'er away. I can't serve that little grandpa, to be honest.
, even if you fight 100 black knights, it is much safer than being with Lu'er." Amy shattered Da Qingshan's dream with a dark face.
"Sha Ruo, what Amy said makes sense. In the name of the acting head of the mission, I order you and Daqingshan to enter Snowfield City alone, submit your credentials to the other party first, and then come back to rescue us. If something goes wrong, you can lead the team alone.
The young son of the fantasy beast can return to the imperial capital, but remember to hurry up, otherwise this opportunity this year will be wasted." Lin Yushang stood up in a loud voice and said coldly to Sha Ruo.
"No!" Sha Ruo stubbornly turned her head, her long hair fluttering in the air.
"Good sister, you are a priest and I am a magician. Who is more effective in a war? And you are an envoy representing two countries. What about me? Can I represent the Holy Church? Do me a favor, okay? Sister
, please, otherwise we will all..." Seeing that she was too stubborn, Lin Yushang hugged Sha Ruo's thin shoulders and persuaded her softly, tears falling down.
"Okay, sister, don't be like this, I can just go." Seeing Lin Yushang crying, Sha Ruo immediately panicked and quickly agreed, but thinking of the possible dangers, tears suddenly came out.
"Okay, the two ladies and our mercenaries are here. Don't be separated like this. It'll be fine. We will take action separately tomorrow morning. Daqingshan will go left after we leave for an hour. Remember to let Lu'er
Monitor all situations at all times. Okay, it's late, go to bed." With a sneer on her lips, Amy stood up and walked towards her sledge.
Early the next morning, Amy, Lin Yushang and six soldiers left with three sleds. Daqingshan and Sharuo watched them disappear from sight, sighed heavily, and then drove up
The sled, guided by the magic pointer, adjusted its angle slightly and began to move due north.
According to Amy's estimation, if they first go due north for a while, and then move forward, the distance they walk will be more than 20 kilometers, and it should be an hour slower than Amy and the others before they leave the forest.
Perhaps because he was an orphan since he was a child, Da Qingshan is a silent person. Even when he is with Amy, he listens a lot and thinks a lot and does a lot. When he can stop talking, Da Qingshan will never say a word. First.
This is especially true when I go on a long trip with a girl.
He threw his shield to Sha Ruo, and then silently stood at the front of the sled. A crossbow arrow was already loaded in the steel crossbow, and he threw it beside his feet. The long sword was already half out of its sheath, and even the one sent by the Dragon God
The golden dragon gun was also taken out from the magic barrier bag, and he sat under his buttocks, holding a long branch in his hand, and knocked the head of the head dog from time to time to guide the direction of the head dog. After a while, Lu'er flew away
He got into the air and surveyed the surrounding area.
Sha Ruo didn't speak either. The fierce cold wind was howling by, making it difficult to speak. Moreover, Sha Ruo didn't know what to say. Unlike Da Qingshan, this was also the first time for her to be alone with the opposite sex.
Time passed quickly in the white snow and forest sea.
In the forest, night came quickly.
Seeing that Daqingshan had a hard day during the day, Sha Ruo felt quite sorry. She jumped off the sled and stretched her almost numb legs. She was going to collect the wood and light up the fire to barbecue.
Just when she was moving her legs, she turned around and realized that Da Qingshan had already started to fuck him. She was just about to say hello and do it herself, but the strange sight in front of her shocked her.
Daqingshan found an old tree that had fallen to the ground, pulled out the long sword from his waist, and swung it to chop down the tree.
"Is this a fool?" Sha Ruo sneered, how can this be used to cut down trees? Even the best long sword in the world cannot be used to cut down trees, otherwise not only the blade will be damaged, but the sword will also break soon -
-The long and thin sword cannot withstand such huge shearing force, and it is still a coniferous forest. It would take half a day to chop these trees with an axe. In fact, each sled is specially equipped with two axes, which are specially used to chop down these trees.
Spend the night cutting down trees in the forest.
Sha Ruogang was about to get the axe, only to see that the huge tree trunk had been chopped into two pieces by Daqingshan's long sword. Then the long sword was swung again, and a 40 cm standard firewood pile had been chopped.
Da Qingshan put the tree stump upright on the ground, waved his sword high, click, click, click, click... Every time he struck the sword, a standard piece of firewood immediately jumped out from the tree stump.
What kind of person is this? Can he cut firewood like this? This phenomenon almost overturned all of Sha Ruo's common sense. It was really strange. Sha Ruo really couldn't understand it.
Da Qingshan didn't pay attention to how other people looked at him. In fact, he didn't dare to go out and see what Sha Ruo looked like. If someone wearing similar clothes to Sha Ruo appeared right now, he would be confused immediately.
After the firewood was chopped, he quickly piled the wood into a bonfire pile, then sprinkled it with pine oil, and boom - the flames jumped high.
Soon, the strong aroma of barbecue floated over the campfire.
