Chapter 4 Chapter 3 What is the limit of the world

The fourth day of June in the third year of Yuan Ding. On the day when the army of the Northern Expedition set off, hundreds of officials saw them off outside the north gate of the imperial capital. In front of the city gate, the army stood still, with shining armor, and at a glance, the majestic and majestic momentum took one's breath away.In mid-air, flags were flying, and the most eye-catching ones were of course the Canglong flag and the white phoenix flag fluttering in the wind.On the red banner, a canglong with its teeth and claws entrenched among the clouds is the canglong banner of Dong Shixiu, who is so powerful in the troubled times.A white phoenix on the black flag spreads its wings and soars into the sky.

Before Wanjun, there are two horses standing tall. The one with red armor and black horse is Dong Shixiu, the emperor of the current dynasty, and the one with white horse and silver armor is "General Fengying" Feng Duying.After all the officials finished their salutes, Dong Shixiu raised his hand, and the army shouted in unison, and the sound was like thunder in an instant, shaking the sky and the earth. Before the shouting stopped, Feng Duying whipped his horsewhip and galloped away like an arrow. The silver armor shone brightly in the morning sun, and the white cloak embroidered with gorgeous phoenix feathers was blown in the air by the wind, as if it were a real phoenix. Spread your wings, it's gorgeous.And behind her, thousands of troops and horses followed like a torrent, so majestic and majestic, the officials and people were amazed: General Feng really lived up to the name of "Phoenix".

"As expected, Seventh Sister likes going to war the most." Ning Jingyuan sighed softly as she watched off the army's lead. "On this point, Big Brother and Seventh Sister are in agreement." Bai Yima said. "Heh..." Ning Yuan chuckled lightly and nodded. "That's why Big Brother left us brothers and only brought Seventh Sister with us." Nan Pianyue muttered. "Eighth brother, just give up, I will never give you a chance to fight again in this life." Hua Jingtai stretched out his hand and rubbed his head. "Hmph, don't forget that elder brother is the emperor, and his words count." Nan Pianyue was not convinced.

"Let's wait and see whose words count." Hua Jingtai disagreed. Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Huang Ti swept his eyes away and silenced each other. Tranquility could not find it funny when he looked at it, his eyes glanced at Fengji who was still looking at the distant direction of the army, somehow he felt a little pity in his heart. When the army disappeared, the courtiers and people who saw him off dispersed one after another, and the six brothers planned to return home. Huajingtai was about to propose to rob Ningjingyuan's mansion, but before he could say anything, Ningjingyuan looked at Huangti and said, "Second brother, how about we go for a walk together?"

After hearing this, Hua Jingtai hurriedly said: "Third brother, you and your second brother can buy some good wine along the way. My fourth brother, fifth brother, and eighth brother will go to your mansion first to wait for you." , Bai Yima, and Nan Pianyue winked, and the three of them agreed, and they all agreed: "Second brother, third brother, let's go ahead." So the four brothers went to Ning Mansion first on horseback, and rushed to see if there was a beautiful Mengcheng hidden before Ning Yuan returned to the mansion. When the crowd dispersed and the brothers had gone far away, Huang Ti asked, "Does the third brother have something to tell me?"

Tranquility nodded, swept his gaze, and then pointed to a hillside tens of feet away: "Second brother, how about we go there?" Huang Ti nodded. Riding on the hillside, standing on a high place, you can still see the billowing dust rising in the air in the distance, which is obviously where the army has passed.The two got off their horses and looked into the distance. After a while, Huang Ti asked, "What do you want to say to me?" Ning Jingyuan looked away, "I heard that the second brother intends to let Gu Yunyuan be our sister-in-law?" Huang Ti nodded: "I did say that before."

Tranquility shook his head: "Second brother, no." "Why?" Huang Ti's eyes flashed. Tranquility gazed into the distance for a moment, then said: "Second brother, I know that you love Seventh Sister so much that's why you care so much about her life-long affairs. Well, in fact, it's just this one girl, and who among us brothers doesn't love her to the bone. But…it’s absolutely impossible to do.” Huang Ti's eyes were fixed, but he remained silent. "Second Brother, you and I both know why Seventh Sister is still unmarried." Tranquility looked at the dust flying in the mid-air in the distance, and her heart seemed to be covered with dust, "If you really want Seventh Sister If my younger sister marries Gu Yunyuan, let alone the reaction of the elder brother and the fourth younger brother, even the seventh younger sister would not agree."

Huang Ti was silent for a moment, and then said with some anger and pity: "It's because of the two of them that Seventh Sister wasted her life. Sometimes I really want to slap each of them." Tranquility smiled wryly when he heard the words: "Second brother, if it is really a matter that can be solved with a slap, why have our brothers been in trouble until now. You must know that today, a supreme ruler in the world and a grand ruler in charge of the country are all pulling the trigger to move the whole country. A single carelessness can lead to catastrophe.” "Ah." Huang Ti gave a rare sigh, and his face was full of disappointment, "I really don't know who is wrong among the three of them, and who is more wrong."

"No one is wrong." Ning Ningyuan also sighed, "It's just... the temperament of the fourth brother who seeks perfection in everything, it can be said that it has succeeded and failed, and that's why it is impossible to advance or retreat today." "You can't blame the fourth brother." Huang Ti shook his head, "You and I can only do the same for what happened back then. After all, he was the one who let me down." Tranquility paused for a moment, raised his hand to caress the steed beside him, and then said: "All these years, you and my brothers have married wives and had children, but the fourth brother is alone. I think that is also the reason."

Huang Ti didn't make a sound, and was silent for a moment before turning his head to look at him: "You and I can only watch helplessly?" This younger brother has always been the smartest, and he always has endless tricks. Seeing Huang Ti's implicitly expectant eyes, Tranquility shook his head helplessly: "Second brother, if there is a way, why should I wait until today. In this world, there are many things that can be solved by tricks and means, but the only thing that cannot be changed is It depends on the person's heart, and it depends on the person's heart. So...Second brother, whether you are for the fourth brother, or you really like Gu Yunyuan, you have to get rid of that idea." He looked at Huangti with a rare look on his face. Seriously, "There is no distinction between gentlemen and villains among those who plan a country, but to govern a country, you need a gentleman and direct ministers. Gu Yunyuan is a gentleman and a talent. You must not get him involved, it will only destroy him."

"I know." Huang Ti nodded, "It's just..." He didn't continue to say the following words, but Tranquility understood, he sighed lightly, extremely melancholy: "We can only hope that after a few years, they will each lose their minds, and then naturally they will have no scruples." Already." He paused, then said softly: "Or just go on like this, at least the eight of us are together, and our friendship will never change. Regarding his words, Huang Ti was silent for a long time before saying: "The world is unpredictable." On that day, both of them acquiesced to maintain the status quo, but what happened in the future also fulfilled Huang Ti's saying that "the world is unpredictable". And in the far north, the news that Emperor Dadong led an army of 200,000 troops to march in person reached the capital of Beihai, which caused panic among everyone. Originally, the King of Beihai was full of ambition.After more than 20 years of management, the country has become rich and the people are strong, and he has formed an alliance with Mengcheng. He is thinking of sending his army south to make a big splash. The thousand-year achievements of the king of a country are also for the eternal generations of the Beihai Dynasty.But... what he never expected was that just after he made a move, civil strife broke out in Mengcheng. Not only did the planned coalition fail to be agreed, but also Dadong's reaction was so fast, which was even more terrifying. It was his initiative to send troops that gave Dadong the rightful name to conquer Beihai. Now, the Beihai army is attacking Dayong, Yingcheng, and Youcheng on the east side of Dadong from three routes. However, the strength of the three cities and food and grass are unexpectedly sufficient. Our own side lost a lot of soldiers and horses. From this point of view, the matter of going south must have been leaked early, so that the people of Dadong were prepared, and at this moment when they could not advance or retreat, news of the northward expedition of the Dadong army came again... ...It's just that the momentum disappears before the teacher is out! When the court heard the news, they were in a panic, and everyone was in danger. Most of the courtiers asked the king to suspend the army and ask for peace. Only a few courtiers expressed their willingness to fight with all their might. Sitting in the court hall, the King of Beihai listened indifferently to the discussions of his highness and ministers. In fact, he knew better than anyone else. Although Beihai is richer and stronger today than in the past, it cannot compare with Dadong, which is more than ten times larger in terms of land, financial resources, and population.But with a strong enemy at your side, how can you feel at ease?Only by defeating it in one fell swoop when its strength is weak can we have our own century-old peace.That's why he decided to form an alliance with Mengcheng. If the strength of the two countries can be combined, the Dadong cavalry will be defeated and the fertile soil of the Dadong will be swallowed up. It's a pity... when everything is ready, the shareholder wind—Mengcheng's army - Can't keep the appointment!Today, Beihai is single and weak, with more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in a tiny place, against Dadong's 200,000 elite cavalry who have experienced many battles, the outcome... I dare not guess.What's more... not only Dadong's emperor Dong Shixiu was leading the army this time, but also the "Blood-devouring Phoenix" Feng Duying who made the enemy fearful! well!King Beihai sighed heavily in his heart, frustration, annoyance, indignation, helplessness and other feelings mixed together, like a piece of soldering iron rolling back and forth in his heart.However, as the king of a country, he can't bow his knees to Da Dong for peace as the courtiers asked him to do. In that case, Beihai will be subdued under Da Dong forever, so what face will he have as the king of a country, and how will he see the underground after a hundred years? How does he face the descendants of the common people in the country! After weighing for a long time, the King of Beihai ordered the three armies to retreat and return to defend the cities of Hao, Bo, and Gui, so as to block the powerful enemies from the gate of the country.One is to hope that after the retreat, the Emperor of Dadong may be able to retreat and return to the court when he sees that there is nothing wrong with the border; the other is to hold on to the three cities so that Dadong cannot be attacked for a long time. In spite of face, he also held the terms of peace in his hands. The king's order was passed down, and the three armies in Beihai stopped attacking Dadongbian City, and retreated back to their own country's Haocheng, Bocheng, and Guicheng. Haocheng, Bocheng, and Guicheng are the three border cities bordering Dadong on the North Sea. The three cities have 40,000 soldiers and horses respectively. The three cities are not far from each other. They form natural horns and can support each other. The city can also be regarded as a strong city with 120,000 soldiers and sufficient food and grass.The generals of the three armies guarding the three cities were Bei Yihe in Gaocheng, Bei Yiye in Bocheng, and Fuhuan in Guicheng.Among them, Fu Huan is a famous general with outstanding military exploits in Beihai, while brothers Bei Yihe and Bei Yiye are the third and sixth princes of Beihai Kingdom, and they are also well-known in China.This time when he sent troops to the south, the king of Beihai appointed Fu Huan as the commander-in-chief and appointed his two sons as the left and right deputy commanders. He also wanted to train his sons and examine their talents in order to prepare for the selection of the crown prince. On June 12th, the Dadong army arrived in Youcheng and rested that night. On the morning of the 13th, Feng Duying led an army of 100,000 to set off first, heading for the North Sea, and Dong Shixiuyi stopped in Yucheng. At you hour on the thirteenth, the army arrived at Xishanpo, which was five li from the city of Hao in the east, seven li from the city of Bo in the west, and ten miles from Guicheng.Feng Duying ordered the army to camp here. Hearing the news that the Eastern Army has arrived, the three generals of the three cities of Hao, Bo, and Gui are waiting in full battle. On the 14th, the Eastern Army did not make any offensive moves. Bei Yihe, Bei Yiye, and Fu Huan were rewarded by spies: Feng Duying, the chief general of the Eastern Army, set up a ring in front of the camp and asked the generals to compete. The winner becomes her lieutenant.On that day, only bursts of cheers could be heard in the camp of the Eastern Army. On the 15th, the Eastern Army still hadn't attacked the city. The spies reported back to the generals of the three Beihai cities that the Eastern Army was throwing wine to celebrate the selection of the vanguard.That day, the Eastern Army camp could only smell the smell of wine. On the 16th, the camp of the Eastern Army was quiet, and there was still no attack on the city. Despite this, Bei Yihe, Bei Yiye, and Fu Huan in Haocheng, Bocheng, and Guicheng were as vigilant as before and did not dare to slack off in the slightest. But similarly, they did not go out of the city to attack the Eastern Army.The will of the King of the North Sea is to "keep", to guard the city gates, and not let the people from the east step in.At the same time, this is also the wish of most of the ministers and generals in the country, to keep the Dongren out of the country, and when the time is right, the two sides can make peace.Therefore, the command given by the Lord General Fu Huan is: If the enemy moves, I will move, and if the enemy does not move, I will not move.Whenever one city is attacked, two cities will be saved immediately. On the seventeenth, Mao time. At dawn when the sky was dark and the people were sleepy, the 40,000 cavalry of the Eastern Army quietly and quickly rushed to pickaxe city. The spies reported that Yiye in the north of Bocheng and Fuhuan in Guicheng immediately dispatched 20,000 soldiers and horses to reinforce Haocheng. Therefore, as soon as the 40,000 Eastern Army arrived outside the city of Hao, Bei Yihe, who had been waiting for a long time, led the troops to fight, plus the 40,000 soldiers who rushed to Bei Yiye and Fuhuan for reinforcements. In less than half an hour of fierce fighting, the Eastern Army was defeated and fled.The Northern Army did not pursue. Although this battle was small, it defeated the generals under the command of Feng Duying, the world-famous "General Fengying", which made the Northern Army quite excited, but the three generals were not as happy as everyone else for their victory in the first battle. Bei Yihe in the pick city just smiled disdainfully, and thought to himself: That's just a feigned defeat by the Dong people, the purpose is to lure me to pursue and then set up an ambush to attack me, Xiao Wang won't be fooled. Bei Yiye in Bocheng is also proud of his wise deduction: Feng Duying clearly has 100,000 troops, but only sent 40,000 troops. It is obviously to test the situation of our army. How can Xiao Wang not understand such a small trick? out.Hmph, is this Feng Duying nothing special? Fu Huan in Guicheng pondered: The famous "General Fengying" has only such a little ability? Then, Feng Duying's actions made the disdainful even more disdainful, the complacent ones even more complacent, and the contemplative ones even more puzzled. On the eighteenth day, 40,000 soldiers and horses of the Eastern Army attacked Guicheng. Naturally, Fu Huan led the troops out of the city to fight, and the brothers Bei Yihe and Bei Yiye in Haocheng and Bocheng were trusted and sent troops to reinforce them. Half an hour later, the Eastern Army was defeated and fled. All of a sudden, the Northern Army in the three cities sneered: the so-called heroic Dadong cavalry is nothing more than that, and it cannot withstand a blow from our Beihai elite soldiers.The generals even thought that the prestige of "General Fengying" was exaggerated. Judging from the actions of her and others that everyone can see at a glance, there is no such thing as a famous general, but an ignorant one. Generations nothing more. Therefore, on the 19th, when the spies reported that there was movement at Dayingmao of the Eastern Army, the brothers Bei Yiye and Bei Yihe who were awakened from their sleep just sneered: Is this Feng Duying trying to attack the city again?Where is she attacking this time?If she wants to attack, she will attack. Xiao Wang is waiting for her.Even when Fu Huan in Guicheng heard the news, he only ordered the generals to prepare for defense or reinforcements. At a quarter of an hour, the spies reported that the Eastern Army had gone to Bocheng. When Bei Yihe in Haocheng learned about it, he yawned and thought: Anyway, Fuhuan will send troops to reinforce, and the Eastern Army will definitely return without success. Under the bed, just send a lieutenant general to order 20,000 soldiers and horses, and set off to reinforce Bocheng at Chenshi, let's go through the motions. In Bocheng, Bei Yiye heard that the Eastern Army was coming, and thought that the Eastern Army would arrive in half an hour, so he lazily got up and dressed, and ordered the soldiers to be summoned to the Huxiao Hall to listen. On that day, the rising sun rose from the east, and the golden-red morning sun shone on the earth. The green hills, green trees, red flowers and red clouds seemed to be full of vitality. In the bright morning light, a streak of yellow dust traversed the air, billowing towards it, covering the sky and the sun. It was the dust raised by the galloping horses. So, when Bei Yiye washed up unhurriedly and was about to have breakfast, a soldier rushed over in a panic: "Your Highness, it's not good, the Eastern Army...the Eastern Army is here!" "Boom!" The bowl slipped from Bei Yiye's hand, and the soup instantly soaked the tablecloth.He looked up at the panting soldier: "What are you talking about? What Eastern Army is coming? How could they be so fast?" In just two minutes, how could they have arrived? Before the soldiers had time to answer, the generals in the Tiger Roaring Hall heard the news and rushed over: "Your Highness! The Eastern Army has arrived at the city!" When Bei Yiye led the generals to rush to the city tower, he saw the white phoenix flag flying in the wind under the bright sun! "It's...it's Feng... Phoenix Shadow Cavalry!" Someone exclaimed. "Your Highness... this... this is Feng Duying's arrival in person!" Someone yelled in horror. Under the city tower, there are shining iron cavalry in silver armor, and the tops of the silver helmets are decorated with red tassels, which flutter in the wind, and when you look away, they are like bright red silk flying. river! That is the "Fengying Cavalry" that General Fengying wears! That is the "White Phoenix" that smashed through the city and wiped out countless enemies! "This..." Above the city tower, Bei Yiye, who was accustomed to battles, was also forced by the murderous aura of the "Phoenix Shadow Rider" below the city, and his face turned pale. "Your Highness..." The lieutenant beside him couldn't help being worried when he saw his expression. Is this the real speed of Dadong cavalry?As fast as thunder, it will arrive in an instant! Is this the real momentum of Dadong Cavalry?The momentum is like Yuanyue, and the killing intent soaks into the skin! Bei Yiye stared blankly at the downstairs. "Your Highness, Your Highness!" the lieutenant called repeatedly. "En." Bei Yiye came back to his senses and looked at the lieutenant general, "Hurry up! Send people to pickaxe city and Gui city to send a message, and ask them to send reinforcements quickly!" "yes!" Bei Yiye turned his head and looked at the generals beside him, all of them looked pale and flustered. Before fighting, the will to fight has completely disappeared! Turning around, his eyes shifted to the silver, white and bright red everywhere under the city tower. There were tens of thousands of people here, but there was no sound, but the momentum seemed to be rolling in like white waves and red floods. That majestic appearance was a hundred times better than his own. "Send the order, and the soldiers in the city will not be able to defend it!" "Yes Yes!" The sun rises higher and higher. A moment passed. Two moments passed. Three quarters passed. ... An hour passed. Two hours have passed. On the tower, the hand that draws the bow is already sore, the arm that holds the knife is numb, the prepared rolling wood and thunder stones are all over the tower, and the hot oil has cooled off... But, the Eastern Army below the tower did not A little movement, still standing like an abyss, still armor like silver, still sharp swords and guns, but there is no attack at all. what happened?Why haven't the reinforcements from Third Brother and General Fu arrived yet? On the tower, Bei Yiye was thinking. Why didn't the Eastern Army attack the city? All the soldiers in Bocheng were thinking. They were puzzled by the tens of thousands of Eastern troops who were motionless under the city tower, and they wondered why the reinforcements had not arrived for so long. "Tat-tat-tat..." Suddenly, the sound of hooves came from far away, and then they got closer and closer. Looking far away, they could see dust and smoke billowing in mid-air. For a while, all the soldiers of the Northern Army on the tower were delighted, this must be the arrival of reinforcements! "Tat-tat-tat..." The sound of hooves got closer, and then they saw the iron horses coming like clouds, and the flags fluttered in the air, and they arrived in front of them in an instant, and when they saw clearly, Bei Yiye and the generals on the tower were as if they had fallen into an ice cellar. "The pickaxe city has been broken, Bei Yihe bows his head!" Bei Yiye and the others hadn't come back to their senses, the sky-shattering roar had already pierced through the air, like a thunderclap, shaking the hearts and souls of all the soldiers in Bocheng. "The pickaxe city has been broken, Bei Yihe bows his head!" Wan Qi rushed towards him, roaring like thunder and roaring, and the city of Bo was panicked. When the dust stopped and the flying cavalry drew back their feet, Bei Yiye and the others who were standing high above the city tower could clearly see that the armor of the general who had just arrived on the opposite side was stained with blood, and his sword was red, obviously he had just experienced a battle bloody battle. And when the Eastern Army hung a head high in front of the formation, Bei Yiye's eyes darkened and he became dizzy for a while. "The pickaxe city has been broken, Bei Yihe bows his head!" The roar shook the heavens and the earth, and only shocked the people on the tower to their wits! Everyone saw clearly—that head was the third prince Bei Yihe! Pickaxe City is broken? Has Pickaxe City been captured by the Eastern Army? ! But isn't Feng Duying here?Then why did the pickaxe city break?What about General Volt?What happened to Guicheng?Why didn't reinforcements arrive? And when there was a panic up and down in Bocheng, suddenly the sound of drums under the tower shook loudly. "Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..." Bei Yiye woke up and heard the sound of war drums, and then saw the Eastern Army riding forward, with white horses and silver armor, and long swords like rainbows. "Siege!" The clear and cold voice fell, and the long sword drew a sharp arc in the air. In an instant, I saw silver armor rushing like a tide. Dadong cavalry finally launched the siege. The Northern Army, which had already exhausted its vigor and panicked, could not resist the Dadong cavalry who were recharging their energy. Among the gold and iron horses, the fight is shocking! In the bloody wind, howling and mourning! ... "Dongshu Liehou Fengwang Biography" records: On June 19th in the third year of Yuanding, Fengwang took the two cities of pickaxe and Bo in one day. The capture of the two cities, the bloodshed of countless Dadong soldiers, and the corpses of countless Beihai soldiers, but it fell into the historian's pen, but only a few words. When Bocheng was broken and Bei Yiye was captured alive, he still didn't understand why he was defeated like this, how the Baocheng guarded by his elder brother Bei Yihe was broken, and why didn't General Fu Huan come to rescue him? He would never know that when Feng Duying led the "Fengying Cavalry" to surround Bocheng, when the 20,000 reinforcements from Haocheng rushed out of the city, her deputy general Yan Xia led an army of 50,000 to attack Baocheng, and the North Yi He is still asleep. Pickaxe City was caught off guard by the attack, and it changed hands in an instant.And the 20,000 reinforcements were ambushed shortly after leaving the city, and all were wiped out in the valley.As for Fu Huan, when he was about to lead the troops to rescue Bocheng, he saw dust flying outside the city, and 50,000 Dadong cavalry surrounded Guicheng. In publicity.That was the arrival of Dadong Emperor Dong Shixiu!At that moment, he knew that pickaxe city and Bo city were not in good shape, so he immediately ordered to defend Guicheng to the death. On June 19th in the third year of Yuanding, the sky was as blue as washing, and the sun was as bright as gold. It was a sunny day, and I was never frightened by the corpse mound in Haocheng, nor frightened by the fighting in Bocheng. It's just how the Northern Army, which practiced day and night and seldom fought, was the opponent of the Phoenix Shadow Cavalry who killed countless enemies across the battlefield. How are the pampered princes of the royal family, Bei Yihe and Bei Yiye, the opponents of Feng Duying, who was tempered by swords and blood at the age of nine. What's more, the Dadong Iron Cavalry, which has experienced many battles, is far superior to the Northern Army in terms of military strength. Therefore, the city of Hao was broken, and the city of Bo was also closed. When the sun was setting, General Fengying's white phoenix flag was already floating on the tower of Bocheng. When Bocheng was breached, Fu Huan looked across from the tower of Guicheng. Under the blood-like setting sun, the fifty thousand Dadong cavalry were as quiet as a mountain, and then one of them galloped out slowly. Even at a distance of tens of feet, one could clearly feel the man's extremely aggressive aura, and he raised his eyes casually. Glancing at the city tower, it was as if there was a thunderbolt, everyone on the Guicheng city tower couldn't help taking a step back, even Fu Huan couldn't help but grasped the treasured sword around his waist, sweating profusely in an instant. The aura of that person seems to turn the world around in a blink of an eye! Is that Dong Shixiu, the founding emperor of the Great Eastern Dynasty? ! Fu Huan stared at that rider closely, wanting to see what the so-called unworldly hero who ended the troubled times and started a new dynasty looked like. On the extraordinary Lilong horse, the man was clothed in loose clothes and his eyebrows were like flying swords. He was not so much an emperor entrenched in the golden palace, but more like a hero who roamed the rivers and lakes. Dong Shixiu, who was on the opposite side, also looked at Guicheng. Seeing that the towers and soldiers were tall and straight, their knives and swords were in order, and they had a kind of solemnity, they could not help but praise: "This Fuhuan is not bad." Then he ordered: "Leave the city a hundred feet to set up camp." "Yes." The generals led the order. After the tents were set up, when Dong Shixiu entered the camp to rest, he asked his bodyguard Long Tu, "Where is General Feng to rest tonight?" Long Tu replied: "General Feng is in Bo City." "Oh." Dong Shixiu nodded and remained silent. At that moment, Bei Yiye staggered and was pushed into the commander's tent in front of the Eastern Army camp outside Bocheng. When he stood still, he raised his head and looked at a desk facing the tent door. A young man was writing a book at the desk. Hearing the sound, the man looked up at him with calm and indifferent eyes, and then turned his head to look at a side. Bei Yiye followed the man's gaze, and saw a woman in white leaning on the wooden couch beside her, looking down at a roll of maps on her lap, her long black hair pouring down like a spring of ink, blocking the On her face, one could only see a pair of slender plain hands flipping the map on her knees, and when her wrists were turning, she raised her sleeves and flicked them, and there was a radiance and a phoenix feather. At that moment, he didn't need to see the woman's face clearly, and he didn't need anyone to explain. He knew the identity of this person——Dadong's "General Fengying" Feng Duying. "General, the Sixth Highness of Beihai is here." In the quiet tent, the young man spoke, his voice was calm and deep, and he was "polite" even to him, a prisoner. After all, a prisoner couldn't talk about "please". The woman in white raised her head and looked away. At that moment, it was as if thousands of pearls were shining at the same time, so bright that it was hard to open your eyes. It took a while for Bei Yiye to see clearly the woman in plain clothes like snow on the couch, and then suddenly understood why she was named "Phoenix" and why she loved white clothes and silver armor. How dazzling is the phoenix of the nine heavens, but she only has a pair of eyes, which are as dazzling as the sun's brightness and the moon's coldness, and in this world, only the purest silvery white can match the beauty that overflows from her body. Bright colors. The name "White Phoenix" is worthy of the name. But...it was also this woman in front of him who caused his city to be destroyed and tens of thousands of soldiers to die in one day! But at this moment, the way she looked at him was so calm and undisciplined. In an instant, a surge of resentment ignited in his chest. Did you bring him here to humiliate him?Or do you want to see him beg for mercy?How can he be a shameless and dignified prince of the Beihai Kingdom? "Win the king and lose the bandit. Xiao Wang was defeated by you today. If you want to kill him, you will have a good time. Don't think about Xiao Wang surrendering and begging for mercy!" Bei Yiye shouted at Feng Duying, speaking in standard Dadong dialect.Beihai is adjacent to the East and Mongolia, and there are frequent exchanges, so there are many folks who are proficient in the languages ​​of the two countries, and the children of the royal family must be able to speak and write the languages ​​of the two countries. After hearing Bei Yiye's words, Feng Duying was not surprised at all, but smiled and said: "You are already my prisoner, do I still need you to submit?" Bei Yiye was at a loss for words, he felt that the smile seemed to be mocking himself, he couldn't help being embarrassed and annoyed, and said in a hateful voice: "Don't try to detain me to threaten my father and General Fu." "Hehe..." Feng Duying laughed softly, "I was going to conquer the North Sea, so why use you to coerce me, I wouldn't bother to do such things." Hearing this, Bei Yiye was even more embarrassed, "Then...then what do you want to do if you catch me?" The third elder brother was dead, and when the Bo City was broken, most of the generals were killed or beheaded, but he was the only one. was spared his life. Feng Duying sized up the young prince of Beihai Kingdom, thinking that maybe he is not yet twenty years old? And being watched by her like this, Bei Yiye only wished there was something to cover him up, and he didn't want to be exposed to her eyes in such a embarrassing way, but she was the one who made him describe his dignity as nothing!The feeling at that moment was extremely complicated. The person in front of him was an enemy, an enemy, but... this enemy... had such a stunning complexion and such a terrifying aura, which made him look like dust.What's even worse is that this person is obviously about the same age as him, but she is already famous all over the world, and he is vulnerable in front of her! So, sometimes he stared angrily, and sometimes bowed his head in embarrassment, which made him forget one important thing——as a prisoner, his life hangs by a thread. After looking at it for a while, Feng Duying suddenly said: "As you said, 'the king loses the bandit', if you lead the army to defeat my Dadong, then today you will be a guest and I will be a prisoner. It's just that you are incompetent, It will be my Dadong Iron Cavalry who will break through the gate of Beihai and flatten the territory of Beihai. So...don't blame me when the country is destroyed." Those words were said casually, but there was a kind of evil in those phoenix eyes Arrogant and arrogant, people can't take it normally. Bei Haiyi's heart trembled, and a chill rose from his spine. The next moment, Feng Duying withdrew his gaze, waved his hand, "Push it out, chop." His tone was indifferent, and even his expression didn't change at all, but these ruthless words were like thunder falling from the sky, which directly shocked Bei Yiye's mind. Looking at her blankly, there was no coldness on that face, but he knew that she was not joking. He is going to die!He, Bei Yiye, is going to die here! At that moment, the fear of death swept over my heart, and I couldn't help but tremble all over my body, as if in an ice cellar, soaking my bone marrow with cold. He doesn't want to die! He is afraid to die! But... He stared at her intently, biting his lip with his teeth clenched. He can't beg for mercy!He is the prince of the North Sea Kingdom, he cannot be without ambition! The soldiers guarding outside the tent didn't give him too much time to be afraid, they came in from left to right, grabbed his arm and dragged him outside the tent. There was a drag mark and a few drops of water on the ground. Xu is sweat, Xu is tears. However, from beginning to end, there was no screaming or crying. The curtains were drawn down. With a silent sigh in his heart, Gu Yunyuan turned his head and looked at the calm-looking female general on the wooden couch. Even if he was an enemy, he was the prince of the North Sea Kingdom, and he had such a young life, so she didn't hesitate or feel sorry for beheading him just like that. As if feeling Gu Yunyuan's gaze, Feng Duying moved his eyes to look at him. "It's just to kill him, so why bother?" He said.Neither wanting him to submit, nor wanting to find out the situation of the Northern Army from him, it would be better to let him die together with his soldiers when the city of Bocheng was captured. "Because I want to see what kind of person he is." Feng Duying's gaze was still on the tent door, as if there was the back of the Prince of Beihai there. "Oh?" Gu Yunyuan smiled with deep meaning on his lips, "Could it be that the general is curious about the appearance of the prince of Beihai Kingdom? In fact, when it comes to appearance, no one in this world can match Toyodazai." Feng Duying glanced back at him, and then turned his eyes back to the tent door, "Although this man is a spoiled prince, the enemy has not escaped. Although he is young and afraid of death, he never cried for mercy when he was imprisoned. It can be seen that he is a A person with aspirations. From this point of view, the king of Beihai who gave birth to him is indeed a wise king as the folks say. And he wants to conquer the people under the rule of the wise king..." "I see." Gu Yunyuan lowered his eyelids to cover his eyes. Feng Duying moved the map on her lap, and said: "For such a person, I can't let him go, and I don't want to torture him. Killing him is the greatest respect for him." She got up from the bed, "Du Kang." The curtain moved happily, and Du Kang walked in. "Although I have ordered it long ago, if you go around the city at this moment, if there are those who harass the people, rob property, and rape women, no matter how high or low they are, they will be executed!" "Yes." Du Kang took the order and left. "Gu Yunyuan." Feng Duying turned to look at him, "both cities of Hao and Bo have issued an order: the people of the two cities, no matter whether they are officials or civilians, regardless of whether they are young or old, whoever riots will be killed immediately without pardon!" The tone was still light and indifferent, but with just one word, blood flowed into rivers and corpses littered the city... And if she wants to kill people like this without hesitation, I don't know what kind of past she has to go through to do it So calm and indifferent. Gu Yunyuan was stunned for a moment, but he couldn't immediately agree. "Master Gu." Feng Duying's clear and slightly cold voice sounded again. Gu Yunyuan came back to his senses, left his seat and bowed, "The next official takes orders." Feng Duying looked at him for a moment, and said: "Gu Yunyuan, you said that you must know Beihai in order to govern Beihai, so from now on, you should watch carefully and think about it." Gu Yunyuan raised his head when he heard the words, with a freehand smile, "Thank you, General, for reminding me." Feng Duying walked to the outside of the tent, stopped after walking a few steps, and looked back at Gu Yunyuan, who was writing at his desk again, "The news of the victory in the first battle has been sent back to the imperial capital, and the person who is supposed to be sent by the fourth brother to take over will be there soon." Arrived, before they arrive..." Her tone paused slightly, Gu Yunyuan couldn't help but raise her head, and saw a faint wave of light floating in her phoenix eyes, "Gu Yunyuan, before the people sent by the fourth brother arrive, let me see Your ability to rule the country." In an instant, Gu Yunyuan only felt a rumble in his head, and suddenly a scalding hot stream gushed out from his chest, and immediately flowed all over his body. "Gu Yunyuan, we'll have to wait and see." Feng Duying raised his eyebrows and smiled, then lifted the curtain and left the tent. After the curtain fell, there was silence in the tent, and Gu Yunyuan murmured to himself after a long time, "Since you want to see it, then I can't disappoint you." In Xianxian's calm tone, there was a kind of awe-inspiring confidence. momentum. Pass the next few days in peace. On June 22, outside Guicheng, the Eastern Army camped. Lifting the curtain, there is a bed on the left, a couch on the right, a desk and a chair in front of it, so simple that it is almost rudimentary, not like a tent owned by an emperor at all. At this moment in the tent, one is lying on the bed, with several folds covering his face, the other is reclining on the couch, with a book covering his face, the two brothers and sisters - an emperor and a general, have no image at all. "Why has Du Kang been away for so long and hasn't come back? Are you going to starve me to death?" Feng Duying muttered. "It's been so long since Long Tu went to move the altar of wine." Dong Shixiu hummed, "Punish the two of them later." At dusk and dusk, when the smoke was rising from the kitchen, Du Kang was picking out the dishes that his generals would eat in the bustling kitchen, while Long Tu was picking out the fine wine "Tu Su" named by his Majesty in a pile of wine jars like a hill, and The two lying in the tent were complaining that they were too slow. When he was bored, Feng Duying asked: "Brother, you have been besieging Guicheng for a few days. When will you attack the city?" "Wait until the things arrive, and wait for the heavens to be beautiful." Dong Shixiu replied lazily. "Oh, how do you plan to take down Guicheng?" Feng Duying asked while thinking, if it were the third and fourth brothers, with such an absolute advantage, they would definitely "surround but not attack" in order to "surrender without fighting." Soldiers", maybe the third brother will use scheming, and the fourth brother will send people to persuade them to surrender. Of the two of them, the third brother likes to save effort and trouble, and the fourth brother wants to win perfectly. As for the eldest brother... Sure enough, Dong Shixiu said: "Fu Huan is the number one famous general in Beihai. Defeating him is equivalent to breaking the defense of all the generals in Beihai." Cheng is looking at us, and all the coveted countries around are watching, so...the capture of Guicheng does not require any tricks, just attack it head-on, let it completely collapse, and let the countries see the unstoppable power of my Dadong Iron Cavalry, This is the power to knock a mountain and shake a tiger!" Feng Duying couldn't help smiling, but it was covered by the book.She asked again: "Have you received the letter from fourth brother?" 闻言东始修哼了一声，才道:“不止他，老六的更早就到了。” 风独影自是了解他的心情，想想四哥与六哥的信，于是声音里便带出了笑意:“大哥，他们没用折子，而是以兄弟的名义给你写信，那已是很留情面了，你就知足吧。” “我还没开战，他们就来了劝诫，想当年玉师都不曾这样管着我呢。”东始修嘟嚷着。 “那是因为玉师知道有二哥三哥四哥管着你，所以他就省了口舌。”风独影取下脸上的书，转头笑看东始修，“大哥，要知道在六哥眼中，你与八弟是一样的。” 尽管她说得很委婉，尽管她顾全兄长的颜面没有把那句“你与八弟一样，出门就要闯祸破财，六哥每每心疼要死，只不过你是大哥，他不敢给你下禁足令罢了”说出来，但东始修已甚感面上无光，瞪着风独影:“你也向着他们，枉费大哥疼你。” “哈哈……”风独影大笑，“大哥，若他们没道理，你也就不是这般滋味了。” 被她给说中心思，东始修恼不是，怒不是，瞪了她半天，可她自是悠哉浅笑，最后反是自己没了脾气，苦笑了一声，然后叹气道:“想当年我们赤贫如洗时，只以为当皇帝当将军一呼百应威风八面，可今日当上了才知，一国在肩，累不堪言。” 风独影没做声，只是自榻上起身盘膝坐着。 东始修望着帐顶，又默然片刻，才道:“北海之战，速战速决！” “四哥亦是这意思。”风独影点点头。 东始修将搁在床上的一张矮几拖了过来，准备放置一会儿两侍卫端来的酒菜，一边信口问道:“镐、僰两城安置如何？” 闻言，风独影微微一笑，道:“大哥，那顾云渊确是良才。” “哦？”东始修收回了手，目光落在她脸上，似乎在衡量她话中有多少深意。 “以往之经验，开头总是要流些无辜之血的，只不过这回，有这顾云渊，看来可以平平静静的等到四哥遣来的官员接收了。”风独影语气里很有些赞赏的意味。 “喔。”东始修依旧不咸不淡的应了一声，目光盯着自家七妹，只要那张脸上有一丝喜欢的意思，就打定了主意从此以后要把这顾云渊永远的留在这北海国任职了。“他做了些什么？” “两城文官，愿意继续留任者，许其原职原俸;所有武官，一律收缴武器革职为民，但不动其田地家财。”风独影道，“'无煽动，则民事定'这本是四哥信中所说，倒不想顾云渊先行一步。他这招'以北海治北海'不失为当前稳定民心之良策。”她说完，瞥见东始修的神色，不由摇头叹道:“大哥，顾云渊是良臣。” “哼！那小子贼心不死。”东始修冷哼一声，“只要他不死心，我就不用他。”这话说得很是任性，只不过此刻面对的不是百官，而是他自家的妹子，所以皇帝荒诞的任性也就不会广传天下。 “大哥。”风独影唤一声，又沉默了，只是看着东始修。 东始修被她目光一看，顿有些悻悻的。 “大哥，近来我常想起玉师的话。”沉默了片刻，风独影忽然开口。 “什么话？”东始修端起茶杯啜了一口。 “就是当年玉师单独与我说，你却偷听了的。”风独影垂眸。 “咚！”茶杯落在了床上，茶水瞬间浸湿了衣襟床席，可东始修顾不得这些，猛地抬头去看风独影。 “大哥，那话你本就不信，又这么多年过去了，你大概都忘了。”风独影低垂着头，肩后的墨发垂落，半掩了神色，只有那低低的声音传来，“可是我从来没有忘，所以我以玉师赐我的字为名，时时提醒自己。” “凤凰儿……”东始修轻轻唤一句。 “大哥。”风独影低低的声音仿似沉沉幽谷里传来，“这世上我最亲的人便是你，我也知大哥视我最亲，可是……大哥，我……我……”她连续两个“我”却依旧是没能完整说出，而这世上，能让“纵千军万马亦往矣”的凤影将军畏缩的不过一二。“大哥，我不愿玉师之言终成谶语。”她抬头，一双凤目如无底之潭，眸光苍凉如夜雪。 “凤凰儿……”东始修心头大震，他的凤凰儿从来骄傲不屈，何曾见过她如此神色。 那样的神色却也只一刹那，风独影站起身，立于帐中，修长挺拔如玉山孤竹，自有一种百摧不折的凛然气度。她微微弯唇，勾起一抹淡笑，若秋日之晨云淡风清，却带了秋之冷瑟。“大哥，听说北海国的长公主有倾国之色，想来那样的美人，四哥总该是欢喜的吧。” “你……凤凰儿，你……”东始修看着风独影，心头惊震过甚，一时竟是无以成语。 风独影抬步，却又顿住，回头看着东始修，眸中一点光亮如夜空明灯，迎风不熄。 “大哥，自小至大，我们八人有过很多的心愿，可是最初的亦是唯一的，不过是我们八人同心同德，福祸与共，永不分离。”话音落下，亦掀帘而去。 帐外，暮色苍苍，夕阳缈艳，怔怔看着那道纤影渐走渐远，东始修一句话也说不出来，心头兵荒马乱一片。 这些年，许是无心，许是有意，终成今日困局。 心动，劫来。 June twenty-fourth. 这天，碧空如洗，万里无云，骄阳如炽。 午时，“咚！咚！咚！” 震耳鼓鸣惊破了癸城外数日来的安静。 当癸城守将伏桓率众人赶到城楼时，便见对面东军已列阵以待，盔甲如银，红缨似火，气势滔天，城楼上诸将看得一阵心惊肉跳。 东军终于要攻城了？ ! “将军，东军这是要攻城了，可……可我们的援兵还没到。”有将领忧心忡忡。请求援兵的信早就发出了，可几天过去，援兵至今未有消息。 伏桓并没有答话，他只是握紧刀柄，然后沉声吩咐:“叶将军守东门，秦都尉守西门，李将军守北门。” “是。”众将领命去了。 伏桓守在南门。对面的东军人数远在他们之上，而援兵……他们哪里还能有援兵，北海倾国而出的本打算一扫东朝的最精锐的十二万大军便在这里，如今镐、僰被破，八万已去，只余癸城这四万人马。这是最后的希望，他愿以死相拼，只求守住国门，只是……当目光落在那威武雄壮的东军阵前，便止不住身体里的一阵阵凉意。 或许在蒙成内乱的那一刻起，就已注定了今日之局，又或许在更早之前，当他们的大王于王宫大殿前放下豪言壮语要征服他朝沃土之刻，便埋下了亡国之祸。 他此刻在此，不过尽人臣之本份，却无力回天。 “为将者，马革裹尸，壮哉！”伏桓喃喃一语。 身后诸将听得，面面相觑，皆满怀黯淡。 “咚！咚！咚……” “呜！呜！呜……” 鼓声隆隆，号角长鸣。 东军发动攻势，北军严阵以待。 这一战，尽管东始修说了要正面强攻，但他亦清楚，已无退路挟破釜沉舟之决心的伏桓必是死守，那样，即算他能拿下癸城，必也会损失惨重。 因此，当癸城里的北军长弓如满月，刀剑出鞘若霜雪，滚木擂石堆满城头时，对面的东军却并没马上冲过来，而是阵前推出了数百床强弩。 “不好！快！盾甲！”伏桓一声大喝。 同时，东军阵前一声冷喝“放箭！”，刹时铁箭飞射，纷纷如疾雨，落向癸城城楼。城楼上的北军躲避不及，顿一阵“啊呀！”惨叫，血花溅起，死伤大片。 “盾甲！”幸存的将士大叫。 “放箭！”数百床强弩再次射出密集铁箭，城楼上的北军又倒下一片。 很快，城楼竖起了坚硬的盾甲，北军一个个都躲在铁墙之后。而在射出第一批弩箭之时，东军早已抬着云梯在铁箭的掩护下冲向了城前，此刻见北军全身都躲入盾甲之后，东军立即将云梯架上了城楼，如银蚁般迅速爬上城墙。 城楼上有士兵窥得墙下动静，顿大叫:“快！撤甲！东军攻上来了！” 北军赶忙撤去凯甲，举起滚木、擂石掷向云梯上的东军，又或挥舞着刀剑劈向爬上城楼的敌人。 眼见两军短兵相接，北军依仗地利，将爬上的东军纷纷砍落，正在此刻，东军阵前忽推出一排人高的铜镜。那刻午时，正是骄阳最炙之时，万丈金芒自高空洒落，投射在铜镜之上，那一面镜墙顿折射出明烈的强光，刺得城楼上的北军眼睛发痛，视线模糊，纷纷扭头背身躲避强光，又或是抬手捂目揉眼，哪里还看得见爬上的东军。 “快！”东军趁此机会，迅速爬上了城楼，等到北军反应过来时，面前已满是银甲霍霍的东军，刹时便是刀光剑影，浴血厮杀。 城下的铜镜亦在那时撤下了，阵前令旗挥下，大批东军推着撞车冲向了城门。 而冲上了城楼的东军杀倒敌人后，即冲进了闸楼，放下了吊桥。 Click!Click!Click! 滑轮滚动，吊桥缓缓放下。 “守住闸楼！”伏桓一声大喝，飞身冲进了闸楼，手起刀落，将放桥的东军士兵砍倒，随即踢过一柄刀卡住滑轮。 于是，吊桥放下一半时卡在了半空，推着撞车已冲到了护城河前的东军顿只能望河止步。 “让开！”一声清喝响起。 刹时东军如潮水分割，露出中间一条空道，一骑如银箭驰过，瞬间便冲到了护城河前，然后便见马背上那人腾空飞跃，金灿的凤羽在空中飘舞，铺开一道华幕，在万军惊艳之际，削铁如泥的凤痕剑出鞘，顿时剑光如银虹贯天，“叮！叮！”两声，索链断裂，吊桥“砰！”地落下，击起丈高的黄尘，却不能掩半空那道丽影。 那是九天之凤，那是飞天之舞！ 也在那刻，东军阵前，东始修抬高臂膀，目望癸城。 “儿郎们，与朕取下癸城。”那语气很是平常，那声音亦不高昂，可当那手轻轻挥下，自有君临天下之王者气势。 “是！”万军齐喝，震天动地。 撞车迅速推过吊桥，“砰！砰！砰！砰！”传来城门撞击的巨响，不一会儿，“轰隆！”一声，城门撞破，铁骑顿如潮涌，攻入癸城。 一场血战展开！ “不许逃！不许退！杀！” 眼见城门破开，可城楼上伏桓依旧稳若铁塔，手起刀落，必是头颅滚地，那等悍勇，顿令那些慌乱的北军士兵定了心神，一个个勇气大增，挥刀杀去，很快的，爬上城楼的东军士兵竟被砍倒半数，城墙被染成殷红，更有一道道血流顺着墙壁蜿蜒而下。 护城河前的风独影仰望城楼一眼，然后再次腾空跃起，半途中足尖在城墙上一点，身形便飞至城楼，人未落下，凤痕剑已挥出，刹时便是数名北军倒下，而她的目的并不是这些北海士兵，身形再次跃起，直往伏桓飞去。 “叮！”眼见剑光袭来，伏桓赶忙举刀一档，剑光散去之际，只瞥见一双冰亮如星凛烈如焰的眼睛。 “本将风独影。”那声音清如凤鸣，在这喊杀震天的战场上，依旧清晰入耳。 “本将北海伏桓。”伏桓朗声大喝。 刹时，长剑如虹，长刀若雪，刀鸣剑啸，声震四野！ 那时刻，在东军的后方，远远的山坡上，一人独立，遥望城楼之上。 看那人，飞跃半空。 看那人，剑光炽烈如日。 看那人，挥手间便劈裂了锋利长刀！ 看那人，一剑便了结悍勇的北海大将！ ... “这就是可让万军倾倒拜服的'白凤凰'！”顾云渊掩上双目，却掩不去目中印下的那道耀目身影。 帝都里，七兄弟身边的凤影将军，收敛了一身的光芒与锐气，不过是一个美丽而高傲的女子。而此刻，在这黄沙滚滚血雨纷飞的战场上，她才是展开双翅翱翔九天的凤凰，有炫美之姿仪，有五彩之华光，有灼射天地无与伦比之气焰。 可是……这样的女子，在那一片华耀的光芒之后，往往掩着累累伤痕。 眼见伏桓毙命，癸城内的北海士兵顿溃不成军，东军却更加勇猛势不可挡，北门、西门的李、秦二将闻得消息，哪里还顾得守城之命，令着麾下数百残兵逃命去了，东门的叶将军则是直接投降了。 《东书·本纪·威烈帝传》记:元鼎三年六月二十四日，帝率军攻破癸城，守将伏桓毙于凤影将军剑下。 数百年后，号为“剑笔”的着名史家昆吾淡在他的《论大东百战》中点评大东征北海这三城之战时，分析了北海惨败之原因:首先大局不利，北海先是失去同盟蒙成的联兵，而后又率先出兵给了大东大义名份;而后是兵力不敌，大东之兵力足胜北海八万有余;再次则是应对大东来势汹汹的北伐策略失当，其一味采取守势，失了锐气，又将十二万大军分守三城，致使兵力分散，若能集十二万大军于一城与大东相抗，定不至败得如此之快;最后则是统帅不敌，伏桓虽在北海被称为名将，但北海内有二十余年的安定，外亦不过与东、蒙一些小摩擦，纵观伏桓一生所历，远不能与自乱世腥风血雨中走来的东始修与风独影相比。 亦因这一战，后世评伏桓其人“名不符其实”，唯一对得起他名将称号的是他的死亡，死在名将中名将的“凤王”风独影剑下，后世之人认为这于他，是一项殊荣。没有人知道，当年，当长剑划破咽喉，当伏桓自高空跌落，他脑中闪过的念头只是:世间怎会有这样的女子，杀人如折花，了无畏色。 带着一丝无解的悲悯，伏桓于癸城城楼下的黄尘里闭上了双眼。 而伏桓的败亡，对于北海的打击却几乎是致命的。 夕阳如同高贵华美的舞者，在无伦的盛舞之后挽着华艳的彩衣，翩然投入西天的怀抱，然后弦月如同骄傲矜持的仙子，披着银纱羽衣，挥洒着清辉冷光，冉冉自天边而来。 大战之后的癸城，触目所及，是横陈的尸首，是散落的盔甲，是凝固的鲜血。 战士们在收拾着战场，捡起那些折断的刀剑，拾起那些无主的断肢，抬起那些逝去的同伴与敌人……每个人都是沉默的做着一切，癸城上空笼罩着一股沉甸甸的凝重。 风独影静立城楼，默默望着这一切，淡月疏星里，她的身影显得挺拔却孤峭，仿佛凤凰独立高崖。 尽管攻城取得大胜，只是心里，却难有一丝胜者的自豪与欢喜。 犹记当年第一次血染断剑，玉
