The southern border of Skymoon Country was filled with smoke.
The army of Ironforest Country and the army of Skymoon Country had already fought dozens of battles. Both sides had won and lost, so they were in a temporary stalemate.
Ironforest Country was a neighboring country in the south of Skymoon Country. It had a population of over 100 million and was still as powerful as Skymoon Country.
This time, the 800,000 soldiers of Ironforest Country were divided into eight routes to attack Skymoon Country. They caught Skymoon Country off guard and quickly occupied dozens of cities in Skymoon Country.
Guanwu City was 25 kilometers long and wide and had a population of several million. It was one of the most magnificent cities in the southern border of Skymoon Country.
General Mo Tie of Ironforest Country led an invincible army of 100,000 to attack this city.
Meanwhile, Skymoon Country stationed 100,000 soldiers in this city to defend against the attack of Ironforest Country.
At noon, the sun was shining brightly. Outside the north gate of Guanwu City, four travel-worn young men galloped toward the city.
"Here we are!"
In front of the city gate, the four looked at the magnificent city in front of them with excitement.
They were Su Mo and his companions.
After more than 10 days of traveling, they finally arrived at Guanwu City.
The army of Ironforest Country was divided into eight routes to attack Skymoon Country. Guanwu City was one of the routes.
Su Mo and the others chose this city as their destination.
Su Mo looked at the tall city wall in front of him with a solemn look in his eyes.
The city wall of Guanwu City was more than 30 meters high and made of diamond.
However, at this moment, the tall city wall was dilapidated. Many parts of it had been smashed, and some parts were obviously newly repaired.
On the city wall, the dried bloodstains were purplish-black in color, covering the entire top and bottom of the city wall, a ghastly sight.
It was obvious that Guan Wucheng had experienced a great battle not long ago, and it was an extremely tragic battle.
"Let's go! Let's enter the city! "
Su Mo called out to them, and they rode toward the city gate.
"Who are you? Get off the horse for inspection! "
There were dozens of guards at the city gate. When they saw Su Mo and his companions, the captain of the guards shouted.
Su Mo nodded and was about to get off the horse when he heard the sound of hooves behind him.
He turned around and saw a group of seven or eight young men galloping toward the city gate.
"Stop!"
Seeing that they were about to enter the city gate, the captain of the guards shouted angrily and quickly stood in front of the gate.
"How dare you stop a disciple of the Scorching Sun Sect? Get lost! "
On the galloping warhorse, a tall young man snorted coldly. With a punch, the captain of the guards was sent flying.
After that, a cloud of dust rose as the group entered Guanwu City swiftly.
"These disciples of the Scorching Sun Sect? How arrogant! "
Li Feng shouted angrily.
"Arrogant people usually don't live long. I hope they can survive this battle!"
Su Mo shook his head and chuckled.
The Imperial Family of Skymoon had asked for help from the Four Major Sects, so the Four Major Sects would definitely send their disciples to participate in the battle. These people must have come with the same intention as them.
However, Su Mo did not like the disciples of the Scorching Sun Sect because of their actions.
It was wartime, and the guards at the city gates were checking the identities of the people entering the city to prevent spies from the Ironforest Country from sneaking into the city.
However, these disciples of the Scorching Sun Sect were acting recklessly just because of their status.
Shaking his head, Su Mo and the others stepped forward, took out their Gale Island identity jade badges, and entered Guanwu City.
The wide streets of the city, which used to be bustling with people, were now empty. It was filled with an oppressive atmosphere, as if a storm was coming.
After entering Guanwu City, the four of them went straight to the Mansion of the City Governor.
The Mansion of the City Governor covered an area of thousands of acres, and it was built like a huge castle, standing in the center of the city.
At the gate of the castle, Su Mo and the others identified themselves and were immediately led into the castle by a young guard.
"Everyone, the city governor has arranged accommodations for the disciples of the Sects. I'll take you there first."
The guard said.
"Brother, how many disciples of the Four Major Sects have come to Guanwu City?"
Li Feng asked the guard.
"More than 300 disciples have come these days. Among them, the disciples of the Scorching Sun Sect and the Sky Yuan Sect are more numerous, while the disciples of the Sky Rapier Sect and Gale Island are fewer."
The guard said.
"How's the battle recently?" Su Mo asked.
"Alas! It's not looking good! "
The guard sighed and said gravely, "The army of Ironforest Country has launched three attacks on Guanwu City, and each attack is fiercer than the previous one. 40% of the 100,000 soldiers stationed in Guanwu City have been killed!"
"40%?" Su Mo and the other three gasped. Losing 40% of their men meant that they had lost 40,000 men and horses.
How could they lose so much in such a short time?
"However, our losses are great. Ironforest Country is not better off than us. They also lost more than thirty thousand people," the guard continued.
Su Mo nodded. It was reasonable that both sides had suffered losses. If Skymoon Country suffered heavy losses while Ironforest Country did not, they would definitely lose this battle.
At that time, even the four major sects would not be able to sit still. It would not be as simple as sending outer sect disciples to help.
The entire Skymoon Country belonged to the Four Major Sects, and even the imperial family of Skymoon Country was just a puppet supported by the Four Major Sects.
If the Four Major Sects wanted to, they could change the imperial family and the dynasty at any time.
In this regard, Ironforest Country was similar to Skymoon Country.
However, unlike Skymoon Country, Ironforest Country did not have the Four Major Sects. Their strength was scattered, and Ironforest Country only had the most powerful sect, called the Ulti-mystery Sect.
The Ulti-mystery Sect was the overlord of Ironforest Country and had the absolute right to speak in Ironforest Country.
Therefore, the war between Ironforest Country and Skymoon Country was actually a game between the Ulti-mystery Sect and the Four Major Sects.
It was not the first time that the two countries had a war. In fact, they often had a small war every three years and a big war every five years.
The war between the two countries was usually between the ordinary armies of the two countries, and it was limited to martial artists below the True Spirit Realm. This was an established rule.
After all, martial artists above the True Spirit Realm were the top experts in both countries. Once martial artists of the True Spirit Realm started a war, the losses would be immeasurable, and both sides would not be able to bear it.
As long as there was no real fight, both sides would not send martial artists of the True Spirit Realm.
Su Mo and the others followed the guard and soon arrived at a courtyard.
"There are many rooms here. You can stay here for the time being! There will be servants who will bring the food! "
After bringing the four of them, the guard turned around and left.
Su Mo and the others walked into the courtyard, packed up a room each, and settled down temporarily.
"Su Mo, we're going to walk around the Mansion of the City Governor. Do you want to come with us?"
Li Feng, Niu Xiaohu, and Zhou Xin came to Su Mo's room and asked.
"You guys go ahead! I won't be going! "
Su Mo thought for a while and shook his head.
At this time, his Lv 4 Elephant's Strength Skill was almost completed, and his physical strength had greatly increased. He could not wait to try to condense the fifth Spiritual Spiral.
"Alright! In that case, we'll be leaving! "
After Li Feng and the others left, Su Mo sat cross-legged in the room and silently ran the Nine Spirals Mystique to condense the fifth Spiritual Spiral.
Time passed slowly.
In the room, as the Spiritual Spiral condensed, Su Mo's expression gradually became ferocious and full of pain.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
