Chapter 274 Situation

Leave the box.

Gu Xia was no longer in the mood to entertain himself and was ready to go home.

He was about to go downstairs when he heard someone talking next to him.

"Do you know? Someone in this city is actually going to awaken the power of blood!"

"Who doesn't know? The news came out yesterday. I didn't expect that there could be a powerful descendant in this remote town.

Why haven't I heard of it before? Could it be a hidden family?"

"You don't know that. That family is just a local snake in this small town and is not very famous.

I heard that the Xingxuan Sect disciple awakened not an ordinary bloodline, but the bloodline of a certain ancient powerful person, the kind that can cause strange phenomena in heaven and earth."

"I see, that's incredible. In the future, that family, Xingxuan Sect, and Xianfu City will all rise to heaven.

I'm so envious! Logically speaking, everyone has a little bit of ancient bloodline now, why didn't I awaken it?"

"I'm just lucky..."

Two Zhongzhou Xuanxiu with different accents were chatting in the corner of the restaurant.

Gu Xia knew they were talking about Yu Chen.

"Speaking of which, Yu Chen will probably be much stronger when he wakes up. Will he come to me again to compete?"

Of course, Yu Chen is still unconscious and won't wake up for a while, so there's no need to worry about his harassment.

"His luck is indeed good, but not as good as mine."

Gu Xia smiled to himself and left the restaurant.

...

Quietly.

The long river of time silently flowed for a distance.

After the blood disaster in Yunzhou reached its peak, it was gradually suppressed by the forces mainly composed of Zhongzhou sects and local Xuanmen.

But on the side close to the Everbright Mountains and Forests, there is still a large area of ​​land controlled by the Origin Cult, accounting for about one-fifth of Yunzhou.

The various Xuanmen had expected this.

In the history of Dagan, there have been several blood disasters that have caused chaos in a state. Even when Dagan was at its strongest, it took two or three years to completely suppress it.

And this time the blood disaster was unprecedented in scale, and Dagan was unable to suppress it. It could only rely on the righteous Xuanmen with their own purposes, which naturally would not be fast.

These Xuanmen didn't even have the intention to take the initiative to clean up for the time being.

Tianyi Palace and Xianmen only built a line of defense outside the blood zone to prevent the blood disaster from spilling out.

Then the Zhongzhou Xuanmen began to divide the big pie and the black pot. When the division was done, they would consider solving the blood disaster.

It's just that it's easy to block the open spear, but it's hard to prevent the hidden arrow.

There were no large-scale blood disasters, but from time to time, some small counties and towns would have small blood disasters like terrorist attacks.

In this way, Yunzhou was barely stable amid the panic.

...

In Hanzhou, thousands of miles away, there is a city called Snow Realm City.

It is a city in the center of Hanzhou. It snows every August, and it is the city that best represents the environment of Hanzhou.

Today, as in the past, heavy snow fell early in the morning.

Ban Yue, the general guarding the city, stood on the top of the city, and the flying snow in the sky could not cool his restless heart.

Follow his line of sight down.

I saw that the Snow City was surrounded by densely packed troops, and they were all Hun soldiers.

"How is it?" Ban Yue asked.

One of his deputy generals answered: "There is no sign of the Huns retreating!"

Ban Yue frowned.

The Huns have been invading for more than three years.

From the beginning when the Huns were unstoppable and marched south, to now when the two armies are gradually entering a stalemate.

The Snow City has been nailed here like a nail. The Huns broke through the defense line of the Hanzhou Army several times, relying on the Snow City as a fulcrum and pushing back.

So, in order to continue to advance, the Huns mobilized tens of thousands of elite troops to attack the Snow City, but they still got nothing after attacking for several months.

From the short summer to the long winter.

According to previous experience, the Hun army should be unable to hold on and retreat to the base camp and attack again next year.

But at the moment, the Huns have no signs of retreating, which makes Ban Yue a little strange.

Buzz! !

A horn sounded.

"Hmph! Let's see what you are up to today?"

Ban Yue has gotten used to it. These Huns have to persuade them to surrender every day when they can't take over.

A high platform was erected in the distance.

A Hun general climbed onto the platform. He was wearing leather and fur clothes, which was obviously different from the Dagan people. He had a thick and weird goatee.

"Soldiers in the city, I advise you to open the city and surrender as soon as possible.

Our General Wuzhu has already gone deep into the snowy area, ready to recover the ancestral land!

No one will come to support you!

If you know what's good for you, open the gate and surrender now, otherwise we will wait for us to enter and kill the whole city!"

The Hun general shouted. He was at the peak of the post-natal period. His voice was like a huge bell and could be heard from afar into the city.

The snowy area he mentioned was Hanzhou, and the ancestral land was Yunzhou.

Ban Yue immediately scolded: "Bah! Barbarians outside the Great Wall! You are just a group of greedy robbers who do not produce anything and only know how to plunder. How dare you speak so arrogantly here!

The two states of Yun and Han are all my Dagan territory. We will not surrender! Dagan will not give up an inch of land. You will all be expelled!"

He is not stupid. When the enemy threatens to massacre the city, he must not pin his future on the enemy giving up the massacre.

The Hun seemed to be poked at the pain point and immediately jumped up:

"Asshole! What nonsense are you talking about! A thousand years ago, your Great Yan Emperor! He drove us from the lush Tianyu to our ancestral land! And he drove us from our ancestral land to the Snowy Land!

A hundred years ago, your Great Gan Emperor snatched the Snowy Land from us, and we were left with the almost uninhabitable Jueyu!

Then, you actually accused us of being unproductive robbers!

You guys are the real robbers! "

Ban Yue said confidently: "I, the Emperor Daqian, am the Son of Heaven. The expansion of territory is in compliance with the destiny of heaven! You barbarians are disobedient and should be expelled!"

Hunnic general: "Tianli! Tianli...damn it! Just wait! I want to see if Tianli can help you before the food in the city runs out!"

After saying that, he jumped off the high platform and returned to the camp.

On the city wall, although Ban Yue won the verbal battle, he did not show any joy.

He looked at the Huns under the city.

As an acquired peak, Ban Yue's eyesight was very strong, and he could see the situation of the Huns' forward from a long distance away.

After several years of war.

He found that the Huns army was changing in a bad direction, and the Huns army was becoming more and more like Daqian's army.

In the past, the Huns had always focused on light cavalry, which came and went like the wind and were good at riding and shooting. Due to the lack of minerals and craftsmen, they had very little armor.

Such an army is very powerful in plundering and invading, but it will be shattered when faced with a large regular army with arrays of infantry, heavy cavalry, and powerful bows and crossbows.

Therefore, from Dayan to Daqian, during the changes of several dynasties, it seemed that the Huns had been plundering and harassing the people on the border, making them happy, but in fact, the border was "driving" the Huns away little by little.

What worries Ban Yue is that today's Huns army also has a variety of soldiers cooperating with each other, and they have also learned to form formations...

Their armor coverage rate is also slowly increasing, especially after the collapse of several iron mines in Hanzhou, the upward trend has become more obvious.

It is not that the Huns have not tried to change in the past, but at that time the Kyushu Dynasty blocked the Huns' technology and resources, and even sent troops to destroy the Huns' workshops and mines.

But now, these blockades seem to have been broken instantly.

"Is there a traitor in Kyushu?

Alas, I can’t care so much anymore, Snow City must not be destroyed! Once the Jiuzhou barrier is broken here, Hanzhou will not be covered, and it will be difficult to recover the lost land. "

In the wind and snow, the lonely city stands. Outside the city, the Huns army launched a new round of charge.
