The cold wind is howling, and the winter in the north is getting colder and colder day by day.

The valley was still digesting the fruits of the last victory, and Darren walked around the Thor hammer more than a dozen times a day, as if he wanted to study it carefully. But I'm probably afraid of breaking it, so I'm a little timid.

As for Borg, from time to time he found the studious Joshua to discuss military command. Dawn's life is even easier, just huddling in caves to practice his skills. All right, let's take our eyes off the protagonist for a while and pull the camera all the way to the north. To the north of the north, that is the northern wilderness.

People usually refer to the frontier of the country near the northern wilderness as the front line, which is apt to say, because the frequency of war here is more frequent than that of beauty-loving aristocratic ladies.

The territory of the north is vast, and the front line is naturally very long. For various reasons, Blanc was mostly on the defensive in the war with the northern wilderness tribes. The long front was naturally very difficult to defend, so in addition to some natural risks, Blanc repaired many cities and passes along the Yanbian border to deploy troops to stop the enemy.

Xiongguan City is the city built because of this. Judging from the map, it is not closest to the front, and there are still several cities within the arc in front of it. People who understand military affairs can naturally see that these are the satellite cities of Xiongguan City.

This arrangement naturally shows the importance of Xiongguan city, in fact, the front line is full of stars, but if you ask the leader of the northern wilderness tribe which city he most wants to build, he will tell you that it is Xiongguan city. The reason is also very simple, because the rear road of Xiongguan City is unobstructed, there is almost no natural danger. As long as the city is laid down, the northern barren iron rides into the hinterland of the north, retreats to secure the land and defends the potential.

The city with such a good terrain is naturally the focus of the attacks of the northern wilderness tribes. in fact, the city of Xiongguan has been knocked down many times, almost once every few years, in the hundreds of years since it was founded in the state of Blanc. No one knows the number of times it has been rebuilt except by flipping through historical books. However, in the nearly 20 years since the Imperial Zichen Legion was stationed here, the sword soldiers have never been seen on the walls of Xiongguan City, and even the satellite city in front of it has not been conquered. The reason for this, of course, is not that the northern wilderness tribes do not want to fight. At this time, Xiongguan city.

There are few pedestrians on the wide streets, which is not to say that there are no civilians in this military city. In fact, after more than ten years of rest and recuperation, it has gathered a lot of popularity, which is much better than other northern cities. The reason for being so lonely is still to blame for the damned weather. Dawn and his family, who live in the northern valleys, feel a chill. Not to mention the farther north this place? In such a hateful weather, who would like to go out if it is not necessary. Move your eyes further forward to the center of the city, which is generally the location of the majestic mansion in other cities. However, in Xiongguan City, here is a low conjoined complex, the style is neither gorgeous nor dignified, seen from afar, like …. It's like a barracks.

In an inconspicuous house due east of this building. Well, every house here is inconspicuous.

The furnishings in the room are quite messy, with a lot of long tables, and all kinds of documents and letters piled up at random. There is still a map hanging on the innermost wall. The lines drawn above crisscross, almost obscuring the original mountains and rivers on the map. There are burning brazier around the room, which is necessary in houses in the north, but now there are as many as six brazier here. It's not heating anymore, it's sweating. In such a stuffy room, there are three people in it. Two of them were sweating and flushed on both sides of the counter. One person holds a piece of paper of equal height in his hand, while the other pulls it at a uniform speed. The glued paper is like a white train passing by the eyes of the person sitting in the middle.

The man in the middle was so strangely dressed that he was now wearing a purple fluffy coat. Yes, it's the right way to wear it this season, but now there are six brazier here! Don't you see that the two people next to them are just wearing a small coat and are already sweating like rain. Half ring, a lot of white paper pulled over. The man raised his head, eyes like autumn water and thin lips like willow leaves. The facial features are extremely exquisite, the lips are slightly purple, and the pale face can hardly see the traces of blood flow. One can't help but feel sorry for her. Oh, what a delicate woman she is! "is this all the information for today?"

Hey, this is a bit of a magnetic voice. Uh, what's the bulge on the neck? Adam's apple! The exquisite and incomparably delicate people of these five features are unexpectedly men. "Yes, Marshal!" Perhaps they were used to it, and the two looked very calm.

"well, ahem, what do you think?" The man in purple coughed twice, stretched out and leaned back on the chair. If you can wake up from the entanglement of gender, it will be easy to find an anomaly. It is such an environment that there is not a single drop of sweat on the face of the man in purple.

The man standing on the left first said, "according to the recent movements of various tribes, I think the northern wasteland is making preparations for the war, and there may be a war this winter."

The man on the right nodded slightly, apparently agreeing with this view.

"it's not possible, it's certain!" The purple man smiled lightly at the corners of his mouth.

The two men nodded as soon as they heard the speech, as if without the slightest doubt.

"about a month later, ahem." The man in purple frowned and calmed down a little, "go and inform the Thunder and Cangyan Legion." Well, to remind them a little bit, the northern wasteland may choose the Cangyan Legion to launch an attack. Ahem, ahem! "

Before the words fell, the man in purple suddenly couldn't help leaning over and coughing.

"Marshal." The two men stepped forward with an unbearable look on their faces.

The man in purple waved his hand, took out a crystal bottle full of purple liquid from his pocket and sipped slightly.

Call. He exhaled a long breath and sat up straight again. "it doesn't matter, go on."

"Yes! Marshal, take care of yourself. " The two men hesitated to look at the crystal bottle and had no choice but to retire.

After sitting for a while, the man in purple got up, bypassed the desk, opened the door and went out.

Tightening up, the man in purple did not go far, but turned into the next room.

It's going to be a lot more lively here, with a large group of young people in Bran officers' civilian clothes walking around, and around you you can see some people arguing loudly about something. "Marshal!" A middle-aged officer saw the man in purple and quickly came up to bow.

"Oh, it's very lively. What do you think? how are these cadets? " The man in purple asked with a smile.

The middle-aged officer smiled and shook his head. "not so good. Most of them are high-minded and low-minded guys." I also saw a battle plan to hit the northern wasteland imperial city yesterday. Damn it, we've been fighting wars all these years in the belly of dogs, ! "

"Ha." The man in purple also chuckled and said, "I'm still young. I'll be all right in the future." They are the top students of the first military Academy in the capital, and they are also the future of the country. "

"Young? Marshal, when you were so young, you were famous all over the world. Alas, when I think that these people will lead troops on the battlefield in the future, I feel that the future of Blanc is bleak. " The middle-aged officer obviously doesn't like it.

"you are too pessimistic. As long as you don't die, the battlefield will always teach them to mature." The man in purple is calm and authentic.

"I hope so."

The man in purple and the middle-aged officer took a few steps forward and walked inward.

By this time, some young officers and cadets had found them, and the middle-aged officer was fine, and they had seen them a long time ago. But the man in purple who walked in front made them a little stunned.

"Women can be brought in here, too?" "Damn it, no way. It turned out to be a man, which makes me, as the most handsome boy in the college, feel so bad." "Why do you look a little familiar."

Then the man in purple stopped. Beside him were two quarreling young cadets, who had the loudest voices in the whole room.

"it's definitely hidden here. It's the most secluded place in a 50-mile radius!"

"bullshit, do you mean they can detect a material team fifty miles away? I'm telling you, it's definitely here. It's not only hidden in the terrain, but also more than ten miles from the ambush site. Only in this way can they know that there is a material team passing by! "

"can't they know in advance? That's ridiculous. you're too close to the ambush. Aren't they afraid of being found? "

"the most dangerous place is the safest place, haven't you ever heard of it?"

"."

The two men were flushed in the fight, and they were about to rise from literary fighting to martial arts.

The middle-aged officer there saw the man in purple stop and explained, "A few days ago, a material team in the garrison was robbed by the gray army." As you know, the Empire recently made up its mind to encircle and suppress the gray army. So the other side reported some information and asked us to determine the location of the gray army. "

The man in purple nodded and then looked at the ambush information.

Shaoqing, the man in purple stepped forward and said, "can you tell me the reason for your choice of location?"

Er, the two were stunned and turned to look at him.

"well, I'll let you judge. My reason is that."

The two immediately narrated their respective reasons, and the man in purple kept nodding his head.

Immediately, the two finished talking. The man in purple chuckled and said, "what you said seems to be reasonable, so let's look at it one by one.". "

"the reason you chose this is because it is hidden. Well, I have a good eye. This is really the best place to hide things within a radius of 50 miles. However, it is not appropriate to use it to hide people. This is a dead place, and there is only one entrance and exit, so it is easy to be blocked. "

"well, your reason is that the detection distance is more than ten miles. Yes, the basic skills are solid. In general, the military reconnaissance distance is about this. But the place you chose is so small that you can only hide three or four hundred people at most. The grey army is followed by some relatives. If the number of ambushes is 300 to 400, the actual number will be about 500. "

…… "Why didn't you know they would expect you to think so, so do the opposite and choose this place to live after death?"

"you are too far-fetched. What if the gray army happens to have no relatives to follow?"

Listening to their own choices were soon overturned, the two officers and cadets quit, immediately put the muzzle to the outside world, and began to attack the man in purple clothes.

"that is, forms are ever-changing on the battlefield. If you cling to this inherent thought, you will suffer a great loss sooner or later. "

"you said we can't, you have the ability, you choose one."

"." The middle-aged officer will come forward as soon as he stares at the tiger.

The man in purple waved and stopped, but without being angry, he picked up his pen and circled a circle somewhere on the map: "well, I choose this."

"is this the valley? Haha, do you know anything about military affairs? I thought you found something. Tell me the reason and see how I can argue you out. "

The man in purple said calmly, "there is no reason, it can only be proved in practice."

", I can't say it. Well, since you won't admit defeat, let's write down these three answers. Let the soldiers attack separately and see who is right! "

With that, the officer cadet took the paper and wrote down his answer with a pen. Then he handed it to another cadet, and finally to the man in purple clothes.

The man in purple then scratched it down and handed the paper back.

"Why, you haven't signed your name yet."

"what, are you afraid of losing embarrassment?"

The man in purple picked his eyebrows and said with a smile, "all right."

And then take back the paper.

The two cadets stared at the man in purple and began to write, as if worried that he would write a name at random. They did not see the playful expression on the face of the middle-aged officer opposite.

"all right." The man in purple handed the paper back and went to the inner room with the middle-aged officer.

The officer cadet who took the paper swept his eyes, Ziyi? How strange the name is, it's a little familiar. Ziyi!

Another cadet watched the guy next to him suddenly fall into a dull state, and then his face changed. Puzzled, he asked, "what's the matter with you? have you come up with any good places?"

"Ziyi." The officer cadet murmured.

"Ziyi? Is this place on the map? "

"the name is Ziyi!"

"er."

"Ziyi?" "Marshal Ziyi?" "Ziyi Army God?"

The cadet next to him suddenly caused a sensation and cried out involuntarily.

Who is Ziyi? That is the marshal of Zichen Legion and the army god of Blanc.

Born into a general family, he showed his military talent from an early age. He entered the first military Academy in the capital at the age of seventeen, graduated and left at the age of eighteen and came to the north. From then on, he started a legendary military career.

From the beginning, he led a hundred infantry, raided the tribal grain roads, and a big fire broke the siege of the city. Run over all over the northern front, after hundreds of large and small battles without defeat, the killed tribes heard the purple color change, saw the flag and fled.

After that, he took over the Zichen Legion at the age of 22 and became the youngest marshal in the history of Blanc. Oh, the name of the Legion was still Star at that time. However, since Ziyi came, the name of the stars has gradually not been mentioned. Finally, Bran X issued a notice officially changing the Star Legion into the Purple Legion and ordering it to be stationed in Xiongguan City.

After that, the city of Xiongguan was safe and sound for more than ten years, without the scourge of knives and soldiers. Marshal Ziyi was also named the god of the army by the people. The surrounding cadets looked at the two cadets with pity, an army god who could not finish telling legends, and was even asked by them, "do you know anything about military affairs?" But also seriously said that the battlefield situation is ever-changing, with inherent ideas, sooner or later will suffer great losses. This is to teach the army god how to fight? How dare you! how fucking daring! This courage, this courage, this domineering, fell all over the ground.
