The wind and rain were swaying in the sky, connecting the heaven and the earth.
The surroundings were cold.
Amidst the fierce sound of horse hooves, 60 imperial guards led by Lin Muyu passed through the cold leaf forest and stepped into the boundary of the Seven Passes.
Everyone used A silver helmet covers the head , the white cloak was lifted up to cover his face, the top of his head and shoulders were already covered with snow, and even the exposed eyelashes were covered with a layer of frost.
The coldness of Qiguan Pass was far from comparable to that of Lanyan City.
It was simply It can be called a cold place.
"Tweet" With a sudden pull on the reins, Lin Muyu stopped the war horse, so much so that the horse almost threw the man off during the rapid sprint.
He lifted up his cloak, and his handsome cheeks were covered with a touch of wind and frost due to the severe cold.
He looked up at the distance.
There are many mountains, and between the mountains is an official road that leads directly to the Seven Seas Province.
At the end of the sight, a fortress stands majestically in the wind and snow.
Seventh Customs, here we are "grown ups" Wei Qiu pointed forward and said: "Look, the scouts from the Tianchong Legion are coming."
Not long after he finished speaking, figures appeared one after another in the wind and snow.
They were all heavy cavalry wearing imperial armor.
After several "dang, dang, dang, dang" sounds, a group of scouts pulled out their swords and surrounded Lin Muyu and others.
The leader A middle-aged general shouted: "Who dares to break into the Seventh Customs without authorization?"
Lin Muyu took out his Zhennan General's badge and flashed it, saying: "The new Zhennan General Lin Muyu has come to see General Du Hai of the Tianchong Army on the basis of His Majesty's edict."
"You are Lin Muyu."
The middle-aged general raised his brows and said with a smile: "It's strange that a legendary figure who is so popular in the imperial capital can look like such a white-faced young man.
Since he is General Zhennan, then come with me.
Come on, I’ll take you to see our general.”
"Thank you very much" The scouts turned around one after another, raised the flag of the Tianchong Legion high in the heavy wind and snow, and shouted loudly: "Clear the way!"
The sound of horse hoofbeats gradually became louder, and a total of about 200 horses approached the Seventh Pass.
Getting closer and closer to the fortress, Lin Muyu looked up and couldn't help but marvel at the defensive capabilities of the fortress.
The walls were almost made of huge stones of the same color and were about 50 meters high.
They were called "natural dangers".
It’s not an exaggeration, it’s even faintly visible on the wall It is made of steel and is covered with sharp knives embedded in the wall.
It is impossible to climb.
In other words, if you want to conquer this fortress, you can only break the door.
But the door is a giant door made of pure iron.
Normal attacks There seems to be no news at all.
"Open the door."
The middle-aged general raised the token in his hand high.
In the wind and snow, the soldiers on the city waved their hands.
The next moment, the gate slowly opened.
With the sound of the iron rope twisting, the steel gate, which was at least one meter thick, slowly opened.
Inside the city, a group of soldiers holding swords were waiting in formation. , the fighting spirit and training can be seen on the faces of these Tianchong Legion soldiers.
"General Lin, come with me."
"Thank you very much" Wu Zi rode on his war horse, and the group of people followed the scout generals and rushed along the avenue in the fortress.
Wei Qiu and Xia Housang looked around at everything around them.
A hint of horror could be seen in their eyes.
What kind of pass was this?
This was clearly a fortified city.
The scout general seemed to have noticed the thoughts of a few people.
He smiled slightly and waved his hand: "General, you have also seen that the Seven Passes are unbreakable and known as the first barrier in the world.

There are a lot of weapons, food and grass in this city, enough for nine It took ten thousand troops seven years to build these seven customs, but the previous generation of emperors spent a full twenty-one years."
Lin Muyu nodded and said: "It can be called a miracle."
"Hey," the scout general's face was full of pride, and he continued: "General Du Haihai is known as the leader of the seven divine generals of the empire.
He has guarded the Seven Passes for nearly ten years.
There has never been a single mistake in this fortress.
Hey, ten years."
Lin Muyu was stunned: "The Seven Divine Generals of the Empire" "yes" The scout general touched his nose in embarrassment and said with a smile: "But this title was chosen by the brothers in the army themselves.
His Majesty has not yet approved it.
Hey, it's just a joke."
Lin Muyu became interested and asked: "Excuse me, who are the seven generals?"
"In order of ranking, they are: Du Hai, Xiang Yu, Feng Jixing, Qin Lei, Feng Tiannan, Ji Yao, Lin Yu.
Hey, my general is ranked higher than Xiang Yu, the descendant of Xiang Wentian." "" Lin Muyu smiled slightly and didn't say much, but he was even more interested in Du Hai.
What would the man who was known as the world's most famous general in the Qin Empire be like?
At this moment, everyone came to the second wall of the Seventh Pass, and a soldier's voice came from above: "Open the Tiger Gate."
"Zhizhi" The sound of the iron ropes twisting was very harsh, and the door inlaid with a golden tiger head slowly rose.
Lin Muyu and others quickly rode in, and finally arrived at the central position of the fortress.
Inside the Humen is a main hall.
Although it is solemn, it can be said to be simple.
Piles of flames illuminate the interior and it is brightly lit.
On both sides of the central hall are soldiers from the Guards Battalion with their hands on the hilts of their swords.
Lin Muyu glanced at it, at least In the crowd of 3,000, it was really strict.
In the central military hall, a group of generals were drinking on two sides.
The scout general stepped forward and reported: "General, Lin Muyu, the general of Zhennan in Lanyan City, holds your majesty's edict and asks for an audience."
"Let him come in.
Thank you for your hard work, General Liu.
Please step back."
"Yes, General" Lin Muyu walked in with Wei Qiu and Xia Housang, and immediately the generals of the Tianchong Army on both sides stared at them one by one with sword-like eyes, which made people feel an invisible sense of oppression.
Some of these generals even have the rank of captain of ten thousand men.
The military rank on their necks has two golden six-pointed stars, which is really scary.
The general who is about 40 years old sitting in the middle has three golden six-pointed stars criss-crossing his face.
With seven or eight scars on his face, he looked at Lin Muyu with burning eyes.
He suddenly stood up, cupped his fists and said with a smile: "General Lin has come a long way.
Please forgive Du Hai for not being able to meet him from afar."
Lin Muyu clasped his fists respectfully: "General Zhesha is a subordinate.
I am here to receive your Majesty's edict.
Please accept the edict from the General."
"yes" At the mention of the emperor, the unruly and wild look on Du Hai's face was instantly wiped away.
He hurriedly stepped forward and came behind Lin Muyu, knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists, saying: "General Du Hai receives the imperial edict."
The other twenty generals also knelt down one after another, with solemn expressions on their faces.
Lin Muyu took out the edict and read out: "With the order, General Du Hai will dispatch 20,000 elite soldiers to be dispatched by General Lin Muyu of Zhennan to go to Cangnan Province to wipe out the remnants of the knights' lodge in the mountains.
The period is limited to sixty days, regardless of whether they are destroyed or not.
No, Lin Muyu must return the 20,000 troops to the Seventh Customs, and Du Hai will not neglect it if necessary. " Du Hai was stunned, raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, are you going to lend some troops to you?"
Lin Muyu nodded: "Yes, general, take the imperial edict."
"yes" Du Hai raised his hand to take the edict, read it, and said with a smile: "General Lin Muyu, a young hero is really rare.
When I, Du Hai, were as old as you, I was only a small captain, but the general was already a high-ranking captain.

A general of one town, who has been favored by His Majesty, can command an army of 20,000 people.
Many commanders in the Imperial Army only have this kind of military power.
It is really enviable."
Lin Muyu didn't know how to respond to his lukewarm words, so he could only say respectfully: "The general is so complimentary.
I'm just grateful for your majesty's wrong love.
I don't know when the general's 20,000 elite men can be selected for me." " "Don't worry, 20,000 people is not a small number and needs to be counted carefully.
Besides, I have to provide horses, weapons, food and other matters for these 20,000 people.
I will deliver them early tomorrow morning.
What does General Lin think?"
"Thank you so much, General."
"You're welcome.
We both serve the empire, so what's the difference between us?
Come, General Lin and the two generals sit down together.
It's freezing cold and have a glass of wine to warm up."
"Thanks."
At dusk, the generals were tipsy, and some of them were even drunk.
Lin Muyu remained awake.
At this moment, Wei Qiu came over and said, "Sir, my subordinate just went to check on the process of selecting soldiers.
It was simply too much.
They only gave us some veterans and new recruits." , some veterans are nearly sixty years old, how can they still fight the war?"
"Is it accurate?"
"It's absolutely true."
Wei Qiu raised his head and glanced at Du Hai, saying, "This empire general is nothing more than that."
Lin Muyu raised her hand and said: "Okay, don't talk anymore, just let veterans be veterans.
It doesn't matter.
Veterans are also a kind of intangible wealth.
It doesn't matter.
I was worried before that they wouldn't lend me men and horses.
It would be great if I can borrow them.
After all, these 90,000 horses are also Du Hai’s favorite.”
"Yes, what the Lord said is absolutely true."
After drinking for a while, Du Hai looked drunk and said with a smile: "May I ask General Lin, have you ever led soldiers and horses in the empire before?"
Lin Muyu shook his head: "No."
"oh" Du Hai couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Majesty actually dares to hand over an army of 20,000 to a man who has never led an army before.
He really thinks highly of the young general."
As he spoke, he groaned and said with a smile: "General Lin, I have something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."
"General, please tell me."
"Since the general has no experience in leading troops, I will choose one from the army to join the army and follow the army to make suggestions for the young general.
How about" "This" Lin Muyu thought for a while, and seeing Du Hai's look like "I won't give you the troops if you don't let me take them", she had no choice but to nod: "Okay then, as the general wishes."
"Ha, that's good."
At this time, everyone had had enough food and wine.
Du Hai immediately stood up and said: "Generals, since you have eaten and drank enough, please go back to your camp to rest.
Get up early tomorrow morning to train troops."
"Yes, General" A group of generals stood up and resigned.
"General Lin Muyu, please stay."

Du Hai suddenly said with a smile.
Lin Muyu didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, so she stood there in shock, watching Wei Qiu and Xia Housang go to wait outside the Chinese army's tent.
"General, what's the matter?"
he asked.
Du Hai groaned, with a chill in his eyes, and said with a sneer: "I, Du Hai, single-handedly led the 90,000 troops in Qiguan Pass.
It can be said that everyone is a brother.
It is really hard for me to hand over these brothers.
Somewhat reluctant, Lin Muyu, if you want my 20,000 troops, you can, but let me, Du Hai, see your true ability."
"What do you think?"
Lin Muyu's eyes were filled with madness, and he knew that things would not go so smoothly.
Du Hai laughed, raised his hand and sucked a long knife into his hand from a distance, and said: "Take my three swords from Du Hai.
If you can't catch these three swords, then there is no need to lead the troops to the battle."
"Okay" Lin Muyu raised his hand and pulled out the Dragon Spirit Sword, and a sword roar resounded around the Chinese army's tent.
"No, they are going to take action," Wei Qiu said with his eyebrows furrowed.
Xia Housang took a deep breath and said: "There is no need to worry.
Although Du Hai is in the third level of heaven, my master may not be defeated, and Du Hai does not dare to do anything to you."
"Well, I hope so."
