In the eighth year, the time of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the October month, the beginning of the frost moon.

The eighth year is the time of the nine stars, the hour of the month of Hai, the beginning of winter and the light snow.

During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, the land of Shenzhou was divided into five dynasties: Later Tang, Later Zhou, Later Sui, Later Jin, and Later Han.

Now, the Later Jin has become the earliest imperial court to perish under the separatist rule of the five dynasties.

Once upon a time, Shi Jingfeng, the emperor of the Later Jin court, worshipped Yelu Deguang, the Mengdan Empire, as his adoptive father in the late Tang Dynasty.

Although Shi Jingfeng was several years older than Nayelu Deguang.

However, in order to check and balance the oppression of Li Yu, the last Tang emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the military power of the Mengdan Empire was introduced.

However, now he has taken office and replaced the puppet emperor of the Later Jin court, Dongfang Yanguang, has done similar things to Shi Jingfeng.

At that time, Shi Jingfeng was the leader of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. He used the military power of the Mengdan Empire to restrain the military power of the land of China, thus forming a situation of separatism in the five dynasties.

Now, Dongfang Yanguang has also become a sworn brother of Yelu Deguang as his adoptive father, but he was just used by Yelu Deguang.

In fact, the head of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun is Yelu Deguang, and the master behind the scenes is the Mengdan Empire.

In front of the stage, the puppet is Dongfang Yanguang.

Dongfang Yanguang, a young man, could abandon his wife and children at will in the face of life and death, resulting in the tragic death of Dongfang Xuantian's mother!

This person’s heart does not have the overall pattern of the land of China.

His temperament, just like his father, Dongfang Yuandao, taught him, was extremely good at riding a fence.

If you have breasts, you are your mother, and if you give power, you are his master!

Dongfang Yuandao often taught his son that they used the Mengdan Empire as a pawn and found a stronger backer.

Thus, gaining the current share of power can be comparable to other separatist dynasties.

However, Yelu Deguang of the Mengdan Empire asked for the people of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun.

A large number of people were captured and transported to the Mobei Palace on the grassland and land, serving as slaves.

In the face of absolute crushing strength, there is no such thing as a chess piece.

Some are just more advanced slaves.

By exploiting the people of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, letting their master Mengdan Empire give power.

…………………………………………

Today, Dongfang Yuandao, Dongfang Yanguang and his father and son not only own the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, but also the Sixteen Islands of the South China Sea.

At the same time, it began between the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and was the prime minister of the last Tang Dynasty.

Through the operation of the East and the Far-Roading Operation, provoking conflicts between all parties, the South Island Kingdom and the East Island Kingdom merged into one country, becoming the sixteen island countries in the South China Sea, with Crescent Island and Shangdu City as its capital.

Originally, the eight islands of the East Island Kingdom were: Coral, Ryukyu, Fishing Rain, Zhoushan, Penghu, Miyako, Wang'an, and Huayang.

Originally, the eight islands of the South Island Kingdom were: Crescent Moon, Kowloon, Nansha, Yongshu, Taiping, Jinlan, Huangyan, and Lindao.

In the early days of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, it was under the jurisdiction of Shangdu City of Crescent Island, collectively known as the Sixteen Islands of the South China Sea.

…………………………………………

Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms:

The second of the ten countries, the South Island Kingdom and the East Island Kingdom, were merged into one country, and the South China Sea was sixteen island countries, with Crescent Island and Shangdu City as its capital.

One of the ten countries, the first to be destroyed was Bai Renyi's Bai Tu Kingdom.

Because Li Taibai and Bai Yulong rushed into the Showa Palace in anger and killed Shi Jingfeng.

Thus, the Mengdan Empire was allowed to take advantage of the civil strife of the Later Jin court to break through the Great Wall defense line in the eastern section of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun.

Slaughtered the entire 16 states in one fell swoop: Youzhou, Leizhou, Liangzhou, Jizhou, Yunzhou, Shuozhou, Tongzhou, Tanzhou, Mozhou, Yingzhou, Huanzhou, Yingzhou, Longzhou, Xuanzhou, Yizhou

,Yanzhou.

Only Leizhou was the only state that fought back, and Leizhou New City was all killed in battle, and Baitu Kingdom was destroyed.

…………………………………………

One of the ten countries, the second one to be destroyed was the Xishan Kingdom of Ximen Rongshan.

Ximen Rongshan originally belonged to the camp of Zhu Yitian, the Later Sui court.

For the sake of the righteousness of the land of China, we will not be afraid of life and death, and we will be bravely guarding the western gate of the Himalayas in China.

The king of Xishan, Ximen Rongshan, died in battle at the junction of the Ganges and the land of China.

A group of soldiers from the Xishan Kingdom fought in the Xishan Kingdom in Wuwei County and were almost killed or injured.

At the same time, only 20% or 30% of the elite soldiers of Shuxiang Country remained.

Finally, under the integration of the Later Zhou court and Zhou Zetian, the Xishan Kingdom was incorporated into the Later Zhou court.

From then on, the Xishan Kingdom no longer existed and became a part of the Shuxiang Kingdom.

The remaining military forces were all incorporated into the elite soldiers of Shuxiang Kingdom.

…………………………………………

At this point, the eighth year of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the October month, the beginning of the frost moon.

Ten countries destroyed the two countries and merged one country, leaving the remaining seven countries:

The new Shuxiang Kingdom (after merger with the Xishan Kingdom), the Four Wasteland Kingdoms, the Sixteen Island Kingdoms in the South China Sea, the Jingchu Kingdom, the Eastern Wu Kingdom, the Nanyue Kingdom, and the Northern Territory Kingdom.

Five Dynasties, four remaining:

The Later Zhou court in Luoyang City, including the new Shuxiang Kingdom (after merger with Xishan Kingdom).

The Later Tang Dynasty court in Chang'an City was at the core of the land of China.

The Northern Territory Kingdom, the Later Sui Dynasty in Tingzhou City, including the Four Wasteland Kingdoms.

The Later Han Dynasty in the Nanyue Kingdom, including the Jingchu Kingdom and the Eastern Wu Kingdom.

The Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun and the Sixteen Islands of the South China Sea have become puppets of the Mengdan Empire.

…………………………………………

Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period:

On the land of China, there are two major water systems, Pujiang River and Luo River, which are distributed vertically and horizontally throughout China.

The Pujiang River system flows from north to south, from Kunlun Tianshan Mountain, passes through Chang'an City, and reaches Haizhou City, and flows into the coast of the South China Sea.

The Luo River water system flows from west to east, from the Himalayas, through Luoyang City, to the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, and flows into the coast of the North Sea.

In the country of Nanyue, north of Haizhou City is Siming Mountain.

In the Later Zhou Dynasty, south of Luoyang City was the Luo River.

Siming Mountain connects the Hanshan Mountains on one side.

Siming Mountain lies on one side by the Luo River.

Regarding the Later Han court, Liu Huaiyin's Yiwu Army, who were good at infantry fighting.

As long as Zhou Zetian set up a giant crossbow square formation along the river defense line by the Luo River, it will be an insurmountable natural barrier.

Facing the south of Luoyang City, this natural trench in the Luo River.

The Luo River is wide, and when facing the giant crossbow formation, the Yiwu Army, who is good at ground infantry battles.

If you want to cross the river, you can hardly conquer Luoyang City.

Even at all costs, they will eventually suffer losses.

…………………………………………

The eighth year of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the October month, the beginning of the frost moon.

The Empress of the Later Zhou Dynasty's court, Zhou Zetian, through a secret spy located in Haizhou City, Nanyue Kingdom, discovered that the new Demon Lord Liu Yutian was about to move and was about to replace Liu Huaiyin and become the emperor of the Later Han Dynasty court.

For self-protection, Zhou Zetian, if so, the new Demon Lord, Liu Yutian, replaced Liu Huaiyin.

South of Luoyang City, this natural trench in the Luo River.

For the Yiwu Army, it is an almost insurmountable barrier.

But for Liu Yutian's underworld, this natural trench in the Luo River was like walking on flat ground.

So, after receiving this secret report, Zhou Zetian arranged for Liu Wenying to come to the backyard of the palace to have a secret discussion.

Let him return to Haizhou City immediately and secretly assist Liu Huaiyin, hoping to stop the actions of the new Demon Lord Liu Yutian.

…………………………………………

In Luoyang City, within the backyard of Tai Chi Palace.

At the beginning of the frost moon, this day.

Zhou Zetian met Liu Wenying alone in the backyard room.

At this time, Zhou Zetian looked at Liu Wenying, and after a while, he suddenly asked, "Liu Wenying, do you have family?"
