Alva is a soldier stationed in Luolang Valley of Shangluo State. He is only eighteen years old this year and has been in the army for a year. He is full of vigor and vitality.
The defending army was defeated by the invasion of Shufeng Kingdom, and he escaped with the remaining troops.
On the way of escape, he also saw the 3,000 Great Xia soldiers who were going to die, but he did not sneer at this army like those old soldiers. He was full of admiration for them - no matter what, they were going to fight the invaders!
They were nothing like the 30,000 defenders of Shangluo State, who were defeated as soon as they came into contact with the enemy. In fact, they had no will to fight at all. Their purpose of stationing in Luolang Valley was nothing more than to get some free meals in the army!
These cowards!
Alva stood on the Alan Plain with a spear in his hand. He stopped and did not continue to move forward with the remaining troops.
Old Sergeant Dora also stopped. He looked at the people running away at high speed, patted Alva on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Little Alva, what's wrong? You can't outrun them?"
"Old Dora, I just don't understand why we can't defend the Laurent Valley with 30,000 of us?"
Dora raised her eyebrows and grinned, "Because... dying is meaningless, it's better to live. We are Shangluo, too weak, and the weak will be bullied. We can't defeat the army of Shufeng. Alanluo Plain will sooner or later become a Shufeng person, so why bother to fight!"
"You think so too? If that's the case, why aren't the Daxia people afraid of death?" Alva looked back and said, "This is our Shangluo territory. The Shangluo people don't want it anymore, and these Daxia people are going to die in vain... How can we feel at ease?"
"No, I want to go back!"
Dora was startled: "What can you do when you go back?"
"... Let's go and take a look. If, if the Shufeng people withdraw, I will go and collect the bodies of the Daxia people."
Dora was silent for a long time, "Okay, I'll go with you."
"What are you going to do?"
"I've fought battles all my life, but I don't remember ever winning. It's really sad. Let's go and see. Let's go up to Mount Laurent and stand on the heights to look at the Plain of Aranlos. From now on... we'll never see it again."
"……good!"
The two soldiers, one old and one young, turned and walked towards the Laurent Valley.
At this moment, the battle in Laurent Valley has come to an end.
Of the 50,000 Shufeng troops, only 5,000 escaped because of the obstruction of the retreat pass. The remaining 45,000 were all annihilated by Huang Jinye's troops in Luolang Valley.
"Leave three hundred men behind to drag all the bodies to the Alanluo Plain and burn them. Guide, lead the way! Everyone else, follow me!"
"The commander robbed three gold mountains in Tianyao Country. We can't return empty-handed from Shufeng Country!"
The guide was an extremely experienced scout in the Shangluo army. He was already stunned by everything he saw.
He could hardly imagine that there was such a powerful army in the world!
He originally thought that he would never return after bringing 3,000 people into the Luolang Valley. He never expected that the massacre would turn out like this.
Those arrogant Shufeng soldiers seemed no different from lambs to be slaughtered in front of the Daxia army.
They had no power to fight back, and the Great Xia Army was harvesting their lives coldly like the god of death.
At this moment, he was extremely grateful, grateful that his Majesty had submitted to the Emperor of Daxia, and grateful that Shangluo had become a vassal state of Daxia! With such a powerful army of Daxia as a backing, from now on, no country would dare to bully the weak Shangluo!
This is a blessing for Shangluo Kingdom!
This is even more of a blessing for the people of Shangluo!
He led the team running across the Alanluo Plain, and this vast plain returned to the hands of the Shangluo Kingdom. Next, he would lead them over the Piriya Mountains and march into Shufeng City, the capital of the Shufeng Kingdom!
…
…
Alva and old Dora arrived at the mouth of the valley.
Experienced old Dora listened for a moment, a look of confusion on her weather-beaten face: "Why is it so quiet?"
"Could it be that all the Daxia people have been killed by the Shufeng Army?"
"That should be the case, Alva, let's go, the Daxia army should be annihilated."
Alva opened his mouth and thought that killing 3,000 out of 50,000 would not be enough to share. The Great Xia Army must have been wiped out.
"Ah..." He sighed deeply and looked up at the vines hanging from the cliff. "Old Dora, find a place to hide so that you won't be seen by the Shufeng people. I'll climb up and take a look."
"What else is there to see?"
"No matter what, they died for our Shangluo Kingdom. Even if we can't bury them, it will at least give us peace of mind to go and see them."
Dora thought about it and didn't stop him. "Be careful, don't let the Sufeng people find you."
"Um."
Alva put the spear on his back, grabbed the vine with both hands, and climbed up as agilely as a monkey.
After a while, he climbed to the top of the mountain and ran all the way over. Then he widened his eyes - the entire Laurent Valley was empty, there was not a single person!
There are no living people, not even dead people!
Alva took a breath, what was going on?
No matter whether the Daxia Army destroyed the Shufeng Army or the Shufeng Army destroyed the Daxia Army, even if both armies perished together, the corpse should still be there!
Is it because the distance is too far to see clearly?
He went down the mountain range, getting closer and closer to Laurent Valley. He suddenly felt a little panic in his heart, not for any other reason, but because it was too quiet here.
He still didn't see anyone.
He continued to go down, and finally stood at the bottom of the valley along the vines.
This place was once the base camp of the Shangluo Kingdom’s garrison.
The camp is still there.
The blood on the ground has not dried yet.
Various weapons were scattered all over the ground.
Still no one!
He walked in this empty valley, and then found a hand somewhere, and a foot in a corner. He walked almost all over the Laurent Valley, and finally found in despair that there was still no one.
There wasn't even a complete corpse.
He ran to the pass and stood on the top of it...
He widened his eyes again, and what he saw was a pile of corpses hundreds of meters ahead!
The bodies were burning.
Then, thick smoke rose.
There was a group of vultures circling in the sky, and some of them landed, seemingly enjoying a delicious meal.
Then, he saw a group of people wearing silver armor!
These people stood in front of the mountain of corpses for a while. When the fire became more fierce and the vultures were frightened and flew away again, these silver-armored men left.
They rushed towards the depths of the Alanluo Plain.
Alva raised his head and saw the majestic Pyria Mountains in the distance, beyond his sight!
They are the Great Xia Army!
They wiped out 50,000 Shufeng troops!
Are they going to attack Shufeng Kingdom?
Alva ran down from the pass and ran quickly towards the valley entrance. He arrived at the valley entrance and found Dora.
"How did you get out of there?"
"Old Dora, they won, the Great Xia Army won!"
"It's empty inside. They've killed all the enemies! They're heading to the Pyria Mountains. They're going to attack the Shufeng Kingdom!"
"When you go back, tell my parents that I'm going with the Great Xia Army. Let them rest assured!"
After saying this, Alva threw his arms wide and ran into the canyon, disappearing from Dora's sight.
"Win?"
"Is this... really a win?"
Dora also rushed into the Laurent Valley. He also stood on the pass and looked out at the vast Aranlo Plain. He cried bitterly and laughed loudly:
"Hahahaha... Shangluo, no, Daxia, won!"
