Why am I invincible again?

Chapter 835 Hopeless City (103)

In 1173, during the reign of Emperor Longka III, an unknown evil beast spread on the bitter cold frontier. For a time, the people on the entire border of the empire were in dire straits, the people stayed behind closed doors during the day, and the population dropped sharply.

In 1176, the empire lost nearly 200 people in just three years, which dealt a heavy blow to the empire with a total population of less than [-] million.

One year later, the first general of the empire was ordered to go to the border, and he led [-] elite soldiers to build a beast city on the border where the beasts were most rampant. In the following eight years, the breeding speed of the beasts declined, and the population continued to decrease. The leading army spent eight years clearing the border of hundreds of thousands of beasts, the empire regained stability, the emperor's worry was gone, and the army led by the general was named the Beast Suppressing Army.

For a time, the people of the empire cheered, and every household worshiped the general as the patron saint of the empire, and a special festival was set up among the people, the Festival of Beasts.I have praised the general's kindness for thousands of years.

In 1186, the general rebelled.

In 1187, the emperor was so heartbroken that he executed the general in Yushou City, ordered the abolition of the Festival of Beasts, and personally led troops to fight against the attacks of the border beasts.

The general died, and the emperor ordered to build a viewing platform around the empire. The viewing platform is 25 meters high and the wall is thick, which can resist the invasion of evil beasts.

20 years later, the construction of Guanhai Terrace was completed. During this period, the border was stable and peaceful. There were no more evil beasts to ravage and kill in the empire.

Mori Plain, where an army is stationed.

The army has been on this plain for a long time, and the end of the year is the fifth year, and in two days they will leave this station to go to the next defense line that needs to be guarded.

It's very cold here, almost all the soldiers are so cold that they can't open their eyes. Everyone's face is red and purple. When they were on guard, it was snowing heavily outside. Snow covered the pitch-black sky outside.

Lu Qi is a sentinel in the army.

This is his tenth year on the expedition. The man in his 30s has no great abilities, but he is in good health, capable and honest. Get his attention.

There is a thick dry grass outside the pitch-black camp. When the wind blows, the grass will sway from side to side and make a "squeaky" sound.

But the sound was not right today, because amidst the "crawling" grass movement, there was also a cry that was so weak that it was almost inaudible.

The man was cautious, walked over with a knife in his hand, carefully pushed aside the dry grass, and looked for the source of the sound.

Then, the man saw a small group of moving figures on the bank of the river.

With the moonlight on the plain, Lu Qi took a closer look.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, this look made him take two steps back in shock.

Lu Qi changed the guard early today for the first time, and he was still carrying something in his arms. Fortunately, it was his good buddy who changed the guard, so he asked him to go back to sleep quickly without asking any questions.

The man returned to his small tent, the lump in his arms was cold, his heart was pounding, and he could hardly believe that he was holding a child in his arms.

After lighting the candle, the man carefully unbuttoned his coat, then wrapped the moving little guy inside and put them together under the quilt.
