Chapter 349 There is a Problem with the History Book
"I did participate in the Battle of Hulao Pass. Eighteen years ago, the southern barbarians from the Shiwandashan Mountains invaded Dawu and attacked all the way to Hulao Pass. As one of the defenders, I personally experienced that battle. It was simply a purgatory..." Zhou Xing's eyes were wandering, as if he was trying hard to think and recall. After thinking seriously for a while, he shook his head in confusion.
"There were indeed many ferocious beasts among the demons and barbarians who participated in the battle, but as far as I can remember, there were no signs of dragons."
Zhou Xing frowned slightly, seeming a little surprised. Since the monsters were invading Dawu on a large scale and commanding all the ferocious beasts to attack Hulao Pass, why did they leave behind their strongest dragon clan?
However, the surprise in Zhou Xing's eyes quickly dissipated, replaced by a nonchalant smile and a shake of his head, "Who cares? After that battle, the demon barbarians retreated directly to the Shiwan Mountains, and I was directly promoted to a captain of a thousand men."
There was a hint of pride in Zhou Xing's eyes.
The great victory at Hulao Pass is known to everyone in the world.
But Zhou Xing’s words always made Chen Changfan feel a little weird.
He couldn't tell exactly what was so strange about it.
"Master Zhou, I heard that the demon beast army was unstoppable, and the resistance forces were defeated step by step, which led to the Battle of Hulao Pass. But how did our Great Wu Dynasty turn the tide of the war and ultimately drive the demon beasts back to the Shiwan Mountains?"
Zhou Xing glanced at Chen Changfan in surprise, his expression as if to say, "Don't you have any historical knowledge at all?"
However, Zhou Xing didn't say much, but briefly described the situation at the time: "Actually, the key lies in the maturity of the Wufu system. The maturity of the Wufu system has greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Great Wu Dynasty. The clever use of battle formations, martial arts, and encirclement tactics allows soldiers to maximize their potential on the battlefield. With the support of the Wufu system, the demon beast army, although powerful, gradually fell into a passive position. In the end, the generals of our Great Wu Dynasty gradually turned the situation around and repelled the arrogant demon barbarian army."
"Isn't it because of the rise of a certain peerless strongman who led our army to launch a counterattack?" Chen Changfan asked somewhat unwillingly.
"A peerless master?" Zhou Xing shook his head with certainty. "The only one who can be called a peerless master is our current emperor. However, the emperor hasn't led an army into battle in decades."
The peerless strong man is the current emperor, Emperor Wuqing?
Emperor Wuqing has not led troops for decades. Does this mean that there is something wrong with him?
At the same time, Chen Changfan carefully recalled the original owner's memory of the Battle of Hulao Pass, but the details he remembered seemed to be similar to Zhou Xing's. It was mostly about the Dawu Dynasty being full of martial virtues and having strong soldiers and horses, defeating the enemy at Hulao Pass and beating the demon army into a pulp.
This is very problematic.
Chen Changfan felt as if he had grasped the key to the problem.
It is clear that in that battle, the mysterious strong man performed a stunning sword move in full view of everyone, so why is there not a single word about it in the historical records?
Even Zhou Xing, a witness of the Battle of Hulao Pass, had completely lost his memory of that peerless strong man.
This is really weird!
He had been maintaining the technique of Qi-reading just now, and the "Qi" when Zhou Xing spoke just now was obviously not a lie.
If Zhou Xing wasn't an actor of Oscar-level caliber, there would only be one possibility.
That is, for some unknown reason, the memory of the Battle of Hulao Pass was artificially erased.
The scope of this erasure should not be limited to Zhou Xing alone. I'm afraid that all the soldiers who participated in that battle had their memories erased.
In addition, historical records about the battle have also been rewritten.
There is a problem with the history books.
This is what caused the true history of that year to be buried.
Chen Changfan could hardly think of anyone else who could do this.
Because there is almost only one person who can do these things.
Emperor Wuqing.
Even if he was not the mastermind behind this, he should at least be someone who knew about it or condoned it.
This is really terrifying.
If the high-level extraordinary people in this world can erase the memories of the people or even brainwash them, then the power in the hands of Emperor Wu Qing is probably far beyond his imagination.
The rebel forces spread across almost all of Kyushu, no matter how brave and skilled they were in fighting, would eventually be wiped out by this terrifying supernatural power.
"Brother Changfan, you seem very interested in the Battle of Hulao Pass. Why don't you join my Qinghe Martial Arts School? If you join the army in the future, you will definitely make great achievements."
I don’t dare, not to mention losing my life, I might even be brainwashed if I join the army.
"Master Zhou, the situation is chaotic right now, so I'd better try to improve my own strength first."
Chen Changfan declined Zhou Xing's invitation indifferently.
Zhou Xing was not surprised by Chen Changfan's reaction.
The riots have intensified in the past two years. Although they have not yet reached a scale that can compete with the imperial court, every time a riot is put down, it will quickly revive in other places.
The imperial court was exhausted, but the rebellion was difficult to eradicate. It was indeed a time of chaos. He was not surprised that Chen Changfan in front of him had such concerns.
After all, no one who has been able to get to where he is today is a fool.
Their assessment of the situation may be more accurate than yours.
"Well, I'm just talking. I won't force you. Wait a few days, when we find the trace of that beast, you can come and try your luck." The beast that Zhou Xing mentioned was naturally the adult dragon that escaped.
What he said to Chen Changfan was naturally a gesture of goodwill to some extent.
"Brother Changfan, I see your energy and blood overflowing faintly. It seems that you are on the verge of a breakthrough. You are not even 20 years old yet, a fourth-level warrior. Such talent really makes me jealous."
Zhou Xing saw Chen Changfan's current blood and qi condition at a glance and pointed it out immediately.
You only know that I am about to break through to the fourth level, but you don’t know that my energy and blood have accumulated several times.
Chen Changfan muttered to himself, but he could only say this to himself.
Judging from his previous experience in climbing stairs, the more experience he had accumulated, the higher the number of steps he would take.
He had always climbed the stairs in nine steps before, so naturally he didn't want to fall behind.
So every step is taken extremely steadily.
"Nothing can be hidden from Master Zhou's reminder. I also hope to improve my own strength as soon as possible. After all, before participating in the dragon hunt, I still need to go to the Earth Lung Mountain. I heard that the bull noses there are not easy to deal with."
Chen Changfan had long coveted the rich resources of spiritual beasts and precious medicines in Difei Mountain. Now he couldn't wait to go and explore.
"Indeed, that Li Daniu is really stingy, so when I go to Difei Mountain to dig for precious herbs, I usually take the small path. The specific route is..."
Zhou Xing suddenly chuckled, lowered his voice, and whispered to Chen Changfan for a while.
Chen Changfan listened for a while, then bowed solemnly to Zhou Xing, "Thank you for your attention and reminder."
