Chapter 353 Survivors of the Times

Yongzhou is connected to Liangzhou in the west, Bingzhou in the east, and Shendu is connected to it. It is mountainous in the north and stretches for more than 800 miles. However, compared with Yizhou, the mountains in the northern part of Yongzhou are not at all steep. However, there are also many open and gentle places, with large troops passing by and chariots and horses running without any obstacles. Unlike Yizhou, the narrowest part of the mountain road is only allowed to pass by one person.

The north of the Great Zhou Empire was a stretch of mountains, a natural barrier that lasted thousands of miles. It started from Yangjue Pass in Liangzhou and finally reached Luoyan Pass in Youzhou in the east.

The Hehuang land is in the north of Yongzhou. It starts from Fuzhu Mountain, the outermost edge of the 800-li mountain ridge. The altitude to the north is simply rising, but the terrain is much smoother. Because the river flows through and lush water and grass. The Hehuang land goes north, it is outside the border.

The land outside the frontier is very vast, connected to the wasteland in the southwest and to Fengyuan in the east, and the demon realm is located in it. Six hundred years ago, before the barbarian empire collapsed, the current demon realm is conveniently located at the largest royal court of the barbarians.

The other royal court they built was in the Hehuang area, which is now Huangcheng.

Huangcheng is built on the bank of the Huangshui River. The Huangyuan where it is located is the richest area in the Hehuang land. It has abundant water systems, with a depth of 200 miles from east to west and more than 100 miles from north to south. It is like a wedge into the entire Hehuang land.

The land of Hehuang was the place where the Zhou army fought the most fiercely with the barbarian army. When the Great Zhou Empire was in its prime, the barbarians retreated north, and the Zhou army emerged from the land of Hehuang and attacked the outside of the frontier in the north, and engaged in a fierce confrontation with the barbarians in the vast land outside the frontier.

After the Zhou army acquired the Hehuang land, it established a hub for storing and transporting grain and grass in the former royal court of the barbarians, which was also the predecessor of Huangcheng.

Until the end, 100,000 imperial guards went north from Haojing and went out of the frontier through Huangcheng. The troops surrounded the current demon realm and gave the barbarians the last blow.

During the reign of Emperor Qi, this Huangcheng was still under the control of the Zhou army. More than 30 years ago, the world was in chaos. The last Zhou army stationed in Huangcheng was defeated by the demon clan, and the entire Hehuang land also fell into the hands of the demon clan.

Nowadays, there are many demonic squares scattered in the huge Hehuang land. The three former great monsters were the demonic squares established in the area bordering Yongzhou in the Hehuang land.

However, the demon square established by Wutong, Giant Horn, and Blue Face is just a small force in the entire Hehuang land.

"Is this Huangcheng?"

Three young generals in armor stood on the mountain, followed by six hundred soldiers. Unlike the barren land they remembered along the way, the Huangyuan field in front of them was full of green fields, abundant spiritual energy and full of vitality.

Huangcheng is not like ordinary plain cities. The city layout is horizontal, but the layout of mountain cities, staggered and stacked. Since the demon clan mastered this Huangcheng, it has obviously carried out a lot of additional construction, and the uppermost urban area has been transformed into a palace.

The palace is majestic, but not the architectural style of the demon clan, but the typical Zhouque, and the eagle looks at the entire city.

The one who mastered this Huangcheng was the Great Demon Wing Tail, one of the thirteen evil spirits of the demon clan, and it was also the leader of the demon square in the entire Hehuang territory.

He has about 30,000 demon soldiers and 20,000 barbarian soldiers under his command, and is quite strong.

Now in the Huangcheng Palace, the atmosphere is dull. In front of Yiwei, there is an envoy from the demon realm, Tuchuan, one of the ministers of the demon emperor Wu Hao.

Tuchuan's face was quite young, almost as young as a teenager. However, his actual age was not much different from the previous generation of Demon Emperor, and he was once the most loyal follower of the previous generation of Demon Emperor.

The demon emperor of the upper generation of the demon clan was defeated by Yuan Cheng, and he had all his ambitions to go to Dongliu. However, Tuchuan's ambition was not extinguished. Because of his disappointment with the demon emperor of the previous generation, he turned to Wu Hao.

Most of the Mu ministers around Wu Hao are the younger generation of powerful people in the demon clan, just like the nine-tailed fox Su Ying. Tuchuan is a few of them.

The reason why Wu Hao sent Tuchuan to him instead of those young and strong men was because Wu Hao knew that it was more suitable for an old minister like Tuchuan to deal with a monster like Yiwei.

"Yingwei, you should have felt Liang Jun's abnormal movement, right?"

The appearance of the wingtail is a very strong middle-aged man with golden hair and beard. Like Tuchuan, the animal traces on him have disappeared.

Yiwei had a gloomy face. In fact, as the most powerful demon leader in the Hehuang land, he had always been paying attention to the movements of Liang's army.

The Liang army, the most powerful army under the command of the Great Zhou Empire, was silent for a year after the defeat in the fight against Shu Kingdom, and then a few days ago.

The Liang army showed signs of large-scale mobilization of troops, and the scale was so large that it was only when it was invading Shu. Huan Wu had just eased his relationship with Zhu Zi in Liangzhou, so the Liang army's goal was a bit intriguing.

Yiwei led the demon clan to conquer the Zhou army and occupy Huangcheng, so he naturally would not be a fool. The Liang army had just experienced the failure of the battle to attack Shu, and it was obviously impossible to go south again in such a short period of time. Then the goal of the near Yongzhou worthy of their mobilization of such a large-scale military force is obvious.

"What did Your Majesty say?"

Yiwei originally wanted to talk about Wu Hao, but after thinking about it, he finally changed his reputation. The demonic side has always been independent of the demon realm, and this is even more so in the demonic convenience of the Hehuang land.

Yiwei didn't want to have a too stiff relationship with Wu Hao after all, especially at this time, under the tremendous pressure from Liang Jun.

"The dispute between Liang and Shu, Huan Wu and Yang Xian will break out sooner or later. According to our intelligence, the Liang army's action was to prepare for that time. The situation was already very clear. Although Huan Wu wanted the land of Hehuang, Yang Xian might not be unwilling to do so. His Majesty the Demon Emperor also hoped that the demon clan here could return to the rule of the Demon Realm, for our common enemy, and for the future our clan could gather enough strength to conquer the entire Great Zhou Empire."

"Does Your Majesty think so? However, I am no longer the time to be young and energetic. I was tired of hearing such remarks decades ago. Even if the Zhou people declined, they are far stronger than the power of His Majesty the Demon Emperor. How can he guarantee that they are not the same as the previous generation of Demon Emperor? Now I only believe in the city, the soldiers, the power in my hands, and not fight for a slogan of nothingness."

Tuchuan laughed, a little sad.

"I understand your feelings very well, because we are all survivors who survived in that era. When Yang You'an and Yuan Shoucheng joined forces, almost slaughtered all the great monsters among the thirteen evil spirits of the four tribes of the nine tribes of my demon clan and the great witches of the barbarians. However, the battle between the Zhou people was far more intense than we thought. You should also know that after that, Yang You'an and Yuan Shoucheng fought each other, and the seventeen great masters of the Star Line died under Yang You'an, including Yuan Shoucheng. And it was because of the struggle between the Zhou people that you were able to attack Huangyuan and seize Huangcheng, right?"

Yiwei was silent, Tuchuan continued, "And this time it was the same. However, what our clan got was no longer the small Hehuang land, but the entire Great Zhou."

"I......."

Just as Yiwei was trying to say something, a very noisy sound suddenly appeared outside the palace. The thick gate was opened and a large number of demon soldiers rushed in.

"What's going on? Didn't you tell me not to disturb my discussion with the guest?"

"Zhou...the Zhou army is coming in!"

"What!"
