Time passed quickly, and more than half a month passed in a flash.

During this long wait, the barbarians who came to form an alliance traveled all the way, day and night, with the earnest expectation of forming an alliance with the Xia Dynasty in their hearts.

Finally, after countless trips and exhausting journeys, these barbarian envoys arrived at the prosperous and magnificent imperial capital.

They came with hope, but they did not expect that the situation at this time had already changed dramatically.

It turned out that during this period, there were serious disagreements within the court of the Xia Dynasty on whether to form an alliance with the barbarians.

Because Lin Qingzhi was backing them up, everyone in the court finally decided to give up the plan to form an alliance with the barbarians.

Therefore, when these barbarian envoys happily ascended the Golden Palace, which symbolized supreme power, they were not greeted with warm hospitality and friendly negotiations, but a cold order to drive them away.

"Get out! We don't need your alliance!"

The guards shouted mercilessly.

Faced with such ruthless treatment, the barbarian envoys were stunned. They could not accept this sudden change.

So, they began to shout loudly, trying to explain their intentions to the officials of the Xia Dynasty and express their sincerity and willingness to cooperate.

"Please listen to us! We came with full sincerity, why treat us like this?"

"We can provide you with resources to fight against foreign enemies together..."

However, no matter how they shouted and begged, the officials of the Xia Dynasty in the Jinluan Palace remained unmoved and turned a deaf ear to their words.

The whole hall fell into a dead silence, and only the desperate and angry voices of the barbarian envoys echoed in the air.

They left the imperial capital with a frustrated look.

They knew that the barbarians were now like a spent force and had no power to turn the tide. Returning to the barbarians would only lead to a dead end.

So, after careful consideration, this group of people who originally belonged to the barbarians decided to completely abandon their past identities, hide their names, and regard themselves as the people of the Xia Dynasty from then on.

However, the truth will eventually come out. Not long after, the common people of the Xia Dynasty knew about the barbarians.

This news was like a bombshell, which instantly caused an uproar in the entire Xia Dynasty.

For a time, people were discussing this matter in the streets and alleys, and after dinner.

Due to different views on the barbarians, the people of the Xia Dynasty naturally split into two distinct factions.

One faction advocated an alliance with the barbarians, believing that they could take this opportunity to absorb the power of the barbarians and strengthen their own strength;

The other faction firmly opposed the alliance, saying that the barbarians had massacred many people in the Xia Dynasty, including their relatives and friends.

The two factions argued for their own reasons and refused to give in to each other, which set off a fierce wave of debate in various states of the Xia Dynasty.

The party supporting the alliance wanted to criticize the other party with the view that the lips and teeth are cold and the barbarians have many resources;

The opposing party emphasized that the barbarian alliance would likely backfire on the Xia Dynasty after repelling the army.

The two sides held their own opinions and argued endlessly, which made the discussion about whether to form an alliance with the barbarians more and more intense, even to the point of drawing swords.

At the same time, the factions that supported the alliance took more active actions.

Because this matter was of great importance, they quickly summoned many scholars who could not practice martial arts and went to the court together.

These scholars who were powerless were full of enthusiasm and expectations, hoping to persuade the court to change its original intention.

However, reality dealt them a heavy blow. Although everyone arrived in the capital after hardships, they did not even see the emperor in the end, and not even an official showed up to receive them.

In this way, this highly anticipated petition journey ended in failure, and the whole thing seemed to be deliberately forgotten and ended in vain.

Despite this, the debate on whether to form an alliance with other countries has not stopped.

The two sides still held their own opinions and refused to give in to each other, but this dispute only remained at the verbal level.

Even though the people were still filled with fear and worry, after seeing how the court handled the matter, most people chose to believe that the court would make its own decision.

Time flies, and more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the mysterious army was unstoppable and had successfully captured most of the vast grassland.

Its marching speed and combat capability were jaw-dropping, and the entire war was developing in an unpredictable direction.

At the same time, a large number of figures suddenly appeared in front of the majestic and majestic Jianmen Pass.

Looking closely, they were actually many ordinary barbarians.

Surprisingly, the majority of these people were old people and children.

It turned out that they were all ordered by the barbarian king's court to come here from the vast barbarian grassland.

This was actually a group of survivors that the barbarian king's court specially left for their own tribe, but what you see here is not all of them.

In fact, in the other two directions of the Barbarian Grassland, there were also many elderly barbarians carrying their young offspring and fleeing in a hurry, traveling all the way.

The reason why they fled so desperately was only one purpose - to prevent the barbarians from becoming extinct, and to allow this once powerful nation to continue, even if it was just a faint hope like a spark.

Although Song Wujie of Jianmen Pass would not let the barbarian people enter Jianmen Pass, there is always a chance. After all, who knows whether Song Wujie will have sympathy!

Because he had not received any news from the alliance team for a long time, the barbarian king Agu Khan had already understood the decision made by the Xia Dynasty.

At this moment, without the strong support of the Xia Dynasty, after a thoughtful discussion with the people around him, he had to face the difficult situation of the mysterious and powerful enemy army pressing forward step by step.

So, the barbarian king resolutely issued an order to retreat and led his people to slowly retreat to the east.

And the direction they retreated was exactly where the Jianmen Pass of the Xia Dynasty was located in the east.

Since the Xia Dynasty rejected the proposal to form an alliance with it to fight against foreign enemies, the barbarian king thought that it would be better to lead this fierce battle to the front of Jianmen Pass.

In this way, even if the Xia Dynasty was unwilling to help, at least it could make it feel the pressure and threat from the border war.

Perhaps they can form an alliance again under this threat.

Time passed quickly. After only a few days, the barbarian army led by the Barbarian King finally arrived at the gate of Jianmen Pass under the pursuit of the Western army.

Looking around, the barbarian army was so vast and endless that there was no end in sight;

At the same time, the mysterious army from the west was much larger than the barbarian army, with flags covering the sun, and its number was as numerous as the stars shining brightly in the night sky.

What was even more terrifying was that a creepy and terrifying aura was constantly emanating from the Western army, as if it was going to swallow up the entire world.

Affected by this terrifying aura, the birds and beasts in the surrounding mountains and forests were panicked and fled in all directions, not daring to stay for a moment.

"This... Is this the legendary Xia Dynasty?!"

The white-haired old man at the forefront of the Western army was sitting on the back of a snow-white and handsome unicorn, looking at the majestic Jianmen Pass in the distance, and couldn't help muttering to himself.

The Jianmen Pass towered into the clouds, like a winding dragon lying between heaven and earth.

The city walls were as solid as rocks, and the steep mountains were even more daunting.

Such a majestic and magnificent architectural wonder has never been seen by even the well-informed Westerners.

For a moment, the entire Western army was attracted by the shocking scene in front of them, and everyone was stunned and whispered to each other.

Some people marveled at the grand scale and exquisite craftsmanship of this pass;

Some people were full of curiosity about the mysterious and ancient country of the Xia Dynasty.

Even the old man who was always calm and composed couldn't help but reveal an unconcealable surprise on his face at this time.

They didn't have such a building in the West. If they could take this place, then this majestic building would belong to them in the West.

This was their victory.

Instantly, all the Western warriors showed greed and excitement on their faces.
