A shocking piece of news spread throughout the Central Plains. The new Han Dynasty declared war on Xiyao! This was the first official war between the two dynasties in fourteen years after the fall of Jin 'an and the separation of the three families. Before this, even if there was a major conflict and thousands of people were killed or injured, there was no time for the two dynasties to really fall out. They were worried about each other.

Now that war has broken out between the two dynasties, it is very likely to break the peace that has existed for more than ten years and plunge the various dynasties of the Central Plains into war again..

Now that New Korea and Taichu are on good terms, the eastern border can be protected without worry. The north borders Wuzhao. Both of them evolved from Jin 'an Dynasty and will not attack each other temporarily. Most of the southern areas are backed by Youzhou, which stretches thousands of miles. There is no threat..

Therefore, it seems that the new Han Dynasty sent troops to Xiyao.

Before the war, New Korea sent emissaries to Taichu Dynasty to meet Taichu Emperor Li Boqian. When the emissaries arrived at Kaiyuan City and entered the palace to meet Taichu Emperor, Han and Yao had already started a fierce battle by the Yuefu River. Both sides suffered heavy casualties. New Korea troops retreated to Guangxuan City..

It is worth mentioning that the new Han is personally led by the new Han King Han Linfu. Although he has been a king for more than ten years, this former Jin 'an general is as brave as ever..

Xiyao, who had been silent for a long time, established his power in the first battle and occupied the upper hand in the great war with Xin Han. Xiyao's general was Duanmu Tao Wu, the son of Duanmu Qiongqi, the general of Xiyao's army who invaded Youzhou in those years..

The mission of the new Han emissary to inform Taichu Emperor Han and Yao of the war is needless to mention. It is already known to everyone..

The emissary's next message angered Li Boqian. During the war between the New Han Dynasty and Xiyao, the New Han Dynasty stopped personnel exchanges with the Taichu Dynasty and closed seven border passes..

When the two Koreas fought, it was normal to temporarily close the border in order to prevent a fire in the backyard. If there were still people moving, it would be easy for the enemy spies to sneak in. A slight carelessness would cause huge losses..

Although this was reasonable, it was different in Li Boqian's ears. After all, Han Linfu had already accepted the title of Taichu Emperor, so the new Han Dynasty was slapping Li Boqian in the face..

Li Boqian wanted to behead the envoy of Xin Han in anger, but under the strong persuasion of all the civil and military officials, he did not really give the order. Finally, he put the envoy back to Xin Han..

Shin-Han Dong-Rin Seki.

The gate of the Pass City has been closed tightly, and the city is in chaos. General Xuan Youyou of Donglin Pass has ordered all the people in the city except the defenders of Xin Han to be arrested. The city is full of fleeing people and arresting defenders..

After a day of arrest, in the evening, there was no trace of anyone else except the patrolling soldiers in the Pass City..

In a house in the west of the city, a small door suddenly opened on the wall that looked intact. A person peeked out secretly and only walked out after confirming that it was safe..

This man looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old. He was thin and looked like an ordinary child, but his real identity was not ordinary. His name was Chen Fan, a spy of the Seven Kills Battalion of the Galaxy Sect. Although he was young, he had been doing this for three or four years..

Although Chen Fan was also a disciple of the Galaxy Sect, he was not very strong. He was only considered average among his peers in the sect. He had just reached the early stage of the Advancement Realm and seemed to have reached his limit. In the past two years, no matter how hard he worked, his cultivation still could not improve..

Chen Fan came to Donglin Pass on a mission from the Seven Kills Camp. He was sent here to gather information. He thought it would be an easy task, so he came happily. However, he was surprised by this. He quickly hid in the interlayer of the wall and escaped the disaster..

Although Chen Fan had not been captured yet, he was trapped in Donglin Pass like a turtle among men. If he wanted to return to Galaxy Sect alive, he had to take the risk..

Late at night, Chen Fan took advantage of the darkness to slowly approach the eastern city wall. To his surprise, there were no soldiers patrolling the city. He could not care less and had to leave the city no matter what..

The city wall was close at hand. As he passed a shop, a voice sounded beside him, startling him. It was a man's urgent voice calling out to him,"Little brother, don't go that way. There are many military masters near the city wall.

Chen Fan looked around and finally found a figure inside the shop. Chen Fan carefully walked into the shop. It was a tea shop, and the whole shop was filled with the refreshing fragrance of tea. A person squatted under the window and waved at Chen Fan..

Chen Fan crouched down and leaned against the wall. He slowly moved closer. With the help of the moonlight, he could roughly see the face of the person in the room..

This man was probably in his forties. He looked dusty and dressed like a peddler. He held a pipe in his hand but it was not lit.

Chen Fan whispered," Brother, thank you for your reminder. If it weren't for you, I would have rushed to the city wall. I would have walked right into your trap.".

The middle-aged man also lowered his voice and said,"At the same time, the poor people who are in trouble, help each other.".

"Brother Chen Xian, before you were a friend of Fu Manlou, what do you call him?".

Fu Man Lou was a rather large restaurant in Donglin City. Chen Fan was telling the truth except for his alias. Before capturing the people in the city, he was indeed working as a waiter in Fu Man Lou to hide his identity..

The middle-aged man picked up the pipe in his hand and sniffed it. He still did not light it. He said kindly,"You can call me Old Mo. I used to do some small business between the two borders.".

"This is the man who brought Gu Xifeng into Donglin Pass.".

Although Chen Fan was not strong enough, he had been a spy for so many years. No matter how he looked at him, Old Mo was just an ordinary person. He asked curiously," Brother Mo, how did you escape from the soldiers?".

Old Mo said proudly,"I was hiding outside, and I saw that everyone in this shop was taken away. I sneaked in when no one noticed. As expected, no one came here to search again.".

Chen Fan finally realized that Old Mo had a time difference. He was lucky enough to get away with it..

Chen Fan continued asking,"" Big brother, you sound like a Yuzhou person. What's there to hide from? Even if you were really caught and interrogated, wouldn't you let you go?" Old Mo smiled bitterly." At first, I just hid because I didn't know what was going on. Later, when I found out about the situation, I wanted to go out by chance. However, I overheard the conversation of the guards passing by at night, so I didn't think so. They said that there were many spies and spies in this city. They would rather kill the wrong ones than let them go. They would never let anyone leave..

”：.

Chen Fan's expression turned even uglier. It seemed that he was dreaming of using Old Mo Xin's identity to leave this place..

Old Mo, the new Korean, may only be locked up when caught, and he will be released after the battle. If he, the real spy, is caught, he will definitely die..

Chen Fan thought of this and said," Brother Mo, it's too easy for two people to hide together. I'll find another place to hide..

Old Mo didn't want Chen Fan to leave. After all, few people could escape the capture of the defenders. It was not easy to meet one. Of course, he hoped to have someone to take care of him. He earnestly said," Little brother, there are not many people in the city now. It's not easy to have someone to take care of. Why don't you stay here with me?.

Chen Fan was a little moved, but he still shook his head helplessly and cupped his fists."Brother Mo, I'd better go. Take care.".

With that said, he moved cautiously outward..

Old Mo sighed and said,"Okay, Brother Chen Xian, we'll meet again if fate permits!".

Chen Fan and Old Mo couldn't see his face clearly, but they could tell that he was wearing armor..

The man said,"It's a touching play, but you don't have to meet again. You can go with me together.".

The man smiled when he said this, but there was a chill in his tone..

Old Mo said in a panic," Who are you?" The short and fat figure continued to smile." I'm sure you've heard of my name in Donglin Pass. My name is Xuan Youyou!" Chen Fan's heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself," I'm finished. Xuan Youyou is a true Master. I can't escape from him with my strength. Besides, the General is here. How can there be no guards nearby?".

Old Mo naturally knew the commander of Donglin Pass. When he heard Xuan Dayou's name, he immediately knelt on the ground and said," Sir, I am just a businessman at the border. I am from New Korea. I am definitely not a spy. Please spare my life!" Before Xuan Dayou could speak, Old Mo pointed at Chen Fan again and said," Sir, this little brother Chen Xian is just a waiter in a restaurant. He is not a spy at such a young age. We are both good people. Please be careful! He laughed and said,"Don't worry, you're going to have to use some special methods during the extraordinary period..

Old Mo calmed down a little when he heard Xuan Dayou say that. He walked towards Xuan Dayou. Although Chen Fan didn't believe that it would be so simple, he didn't choose to resist and walked towards the door..

Xuan Youyou was very cautious. He let the two of them walk in front and walked out of the door. There were already seven or eight guards waiting outside the door. When he saw the general bring the two of them out, he immediately went forward and tied them up when he saw Xuan Youyou's eyes..

Chen Fan felt helpless. He didn't have a chance to escape..

Xuan Youyou handed them over to the soldiers and left. The two of them were taken to a dungeon, which was already full of people. If one observed carefully, many of these people had been seen in the Pass City. Chen Fan and Old Mo were put into the cell, and it was difficult to lock the door..

The prison was tightly guarded, and not even a fly could fly out. Chen Fan could only wait in the prison with Old Mo..

Old Mo saw Chen Fan's ugly expression and comforted him," Brother Chen Xian, Master Xuan didn't say anything. It's fine. I think we'll be able to get out soon.".

Chen Fan felt sad in his heart and pretended to smile."Well, Brother Mo, thank you for your plea. Otherwise, I might have been killed by Xuan Youyou on the spot.".

The old man looked flustered and said,"There are many people here, but don't call your name.".

Chen Fan was depressed, and the fear that came from his heart could not be removed. He could only wave his hand gently and say,"Stop talking nonsense. I was careless.".

"Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about something happy. Brother Chen Xian, you are only seventeen or seventeen years old. To tell you the truth, my brother has a seventeen-year-old daughter in his hometown. She looks pretty. I think my brother is quite good. After going out, my brother will introduce my daughter to you.".

"Old Mo winked at Chen Fan..

Chen Fan's eyes were complicated. He smiled and said,"Then I'm really blessed with misfortune.".

He turned his head away and stopped looking at Old Mo. His eyes were full of sadness because he had already noticed something..

From the dungeon window one could see the sky outside. Before dawn, many people were squeezed into the dungeon. Xuan You also arrived before dawn..

Old Mo whispered to Chen Fan," Sir Xuan, are you going to interrogate us about this? Are you going to find out who the spies are?" Chen Fan's eyes became more worried, but he didn't say anything..

An officer-like person was whispering to Xuan Dayou. Xuan Dayou narrowed his eyes and glanced at everyone. He nodded slightly and walked out of the dungeon. The officer's face revealed a look of pity. He closed his eyes for a long time and sighed. He gathered his subordinates and said something..

The soldiers went away for a while, and each returned with a good deal of straw, firewood, and barrels.

They spread straw and wood all over the cell, then poured the contents of the barrel onto the straw and wood, and a pungent smell filled the cell..

Old Mo looked at Chen Fan in confusion and said anxiously," What are they doing?" Chen Fan's eyes were filled with sadness." Brother Mo, I'm afraid I'll only know your daughter in my next life. My real name is Chen Fan. Don't be afraid. We can be companions on the road together..

After arranging everything, the soldiers left the dungeon. The man who looked like an officer threw a lit torch into the dungeon. Suddenly, a raging fire burned, and the wails were endless..

The seven gates of New Korea slaughtered more than 100,000 people overnight, and almost no one could escape.
