The Naturalization City in winter seems to be too calm. In the sky, there are no birds in sight. There are only gray clouds. It looks like it's snowing again, but it hasn't rained yet. This kind of weather is the most depressing, and this is no different. Outside the Naturalization City, there was no human figure in sight, as if all the people had disappeared en masse.

Inside the city of naturalization, the snow on the streets has not yet completely melted. In some places, the snow has reached knee-high levels. It is very difficult for people to walk on thick snow. Only a few of the streets of Guihua City are paved with bluestone slabs or floor tiles, and the rest of the place is soft soil. Some of the snow melted, turning into snow water that seeped into the mud, making the road very muddy and even more difficult to deal with than the thick snow. Walking on such a muddy road would make anyone feel miserable.

The only area in which the situation is better is around Lin Dan Khan's golden tent. This is where Lin Dan Khan and other Mongolian magnates live, and everything around is as clean as possible. In some places, trees and flowers are planted as decorative decorations. The Mongols who haunt this area are also either rich or expensive. When walking alone, he is often followed by a large group of retinues and guards.

Not far from Lin Dan Khan's golden tent, there was a tent that had just been erected. The color of the tent is a rare purple, and it is embroidered with a delicate wisteria pattern. Strings of wisteria are intertwined with each other, but they are distinct, and each line seems to have a spiritual surname. The Mongolians on the steppe, as long as they see it from a distance, or hear people talk about this wisteria luo tent, they know who the owner of the tent is.

At this moment, in the tent, there is a girl about ten years old, who is silently holding her cheeks and pondering. Next to her, there was steaming fragrant milk tea, but she didn't have the heart to taste it. No one knew what she was pondering. Her expression was very focused, and her eyes were very bright. However, in the brightness, there is a little dazed, as if I have thought of something very distant, or very vague.

Suddenly, she stood up with some trepidation and walked slowly back and forth in the tent. Her body is delicate and slender, her skin is as crystal soft as ice and snow, and her appearance is extremely beautiful, her long satin-like black hair is scattered behind her head, under the crescent-like willow eyebrows, a pair of beautiful eyes are as bright as the stars in the night sky, her nose is exquisite, and her cherry lips are red, reflecting the small beauty mole at the corner of her lips, making her have a faint charm in the show.

The maids beside her all obediently bowed their heads and stood silently on both sides of the tent door, not daring to make any sound. They all knew that this girl had not been in a very good mood since she came to Naturalization City. Don't look at her appearance is very quiet and elegant, in fact, she has been emotionally unstable recently, very irritable, and easily angry. She has been in Naturalization City for less than half a month, and she has been angry more times than in a whole year before.

As for the reason why this girl is angry, they are naturally clear. It's just that there are some things, even if they are clear, they must never say it. If they offend each other, even this girl in purple will not be able to protect them. The power of the other party is too great. Besides, even if they say it, it won't have any effect. This is something that has been settled a long time ago, and it is impossible to change it.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Suddenly, there were sporadic gunshots.

The gunshots were far away, sounding a little dull and a little indistinct.

However, it is certain that this is definitely the sound of musket firing. In Naturalization, who is firing muskets? The Mongol cavalry had no penchant for muskets! The muskets captured by the Mongol cavalry were all re-melted into steel, and then rebuilt into weapons such as bows and arrows. Therefore, the sound of gunshots is definitely not normal.

The maids near the door of the tent were taken aback, and hurriedly opened the tent and went outside to see what was going on. At this time, outside the tent, there was also the sound of horses' hooves. Obviously, it was the Mongol cavalry defending the city, who were also alarmed by the gunfire, and were looking around. The dispatch of the Mongolian cavalry caused a chain reaction in the naturalization city, and all kinds of noisy voices gradually increased. Faintly, someone was shouting loudly.

Only the purple-clothed girl in the tent had little reaction to the sudden gunshot. She was still a little irritated walking around the tent. It was as if the gunshot was too far away from her to have anything to do with him at all. In fact, she really didn't have the heart to pay attention to these things. This is the Naturalization City, the territory of Lin Dan Khan, and all accidents, his subordinates will naturally deal with them.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The gunfire suddenly became more intense, and at the same time it was getting closer and closer.

Judging from the sound of gunfire, there should be a large group of musketeers, quickly approaching the Naturalization City. Obviously, this is definitely not a good thing. The Mongols themselves did not have musketeers, a large number of musketeers arrived, there was only one possibility, and that was the arrival of the enemy! No matter where these musketeers came from, who sent them, and what their purpose was, their arrival was definitely a dangerous thing for Naturalization City.

The gunfire outside became more and more intense, and the girl in purple slowly came back to her senses and gradually began to listen to the gunshots outside. Her beautiful eyebrows gradually frowned. Obviously, she also noticed that the gunshots outside were a little unusual. However, she still didn't pay much attention to what was happening outside. After all, this is not her territory, and she can't do anything wrong, lest she be said to be a noisy leader. It was her two maids, who looked a little nervous, and kept looking outside.

"Da Da Da!"

The sound of horses' hooves came to an abrupt halt outside the purple tent.

After a while, a sturdy middle-aged Mongolian general entered the camp tent, saluted the purple-clothed girl respectfully, and said in a somewhat hurried tone: "Dear Namu Zhong Boqi, the white-clothed army is here." It seems that they are trying to disadvantage the city of naturalization. ”

(Author's note: Birch: also known as "begging", pronounced "beki", an honorific title for the daughter of a tribal leader outside the golden family bloodline.) From the perspective of its aristocratic heritage, it is very similar to the Chinese "Miss" and "Madame", but the level is higher, perhaps "county lord" and "village gentleman" are more appropriate. This purple-clothed girl is Namu Zhong, who is as famous as Tesna and Wuyunna, and is known as one of the three beauties of the grassland. The purpose of her coming to Naturalization City was naturally to marry Lin Dan Khan. After Xu Xingxia snatched Tesna away, Lin Danhan was afraid that the other two beauties would also be snatched away by Xu Xingxia, so he stepped up the steps to marry them. Being so engaged by Xu Xingxia, Lin Danhan became more and more convinced of the truth that the first strike is strong, and then the first attack suffers.

The strength of the Tumut tribe is strong, in the face of Lin Dan Khan's marriage proposal, who dares not agree? Namu Zhong's father happened to die not long ago, and her two elder brothers were competing for the position of tribal leader. However, the two of them did not dare to leave the tribe, lest their opponents take advantage of the opportunity to seize power, so they let Namu Zhong come to Naturalization City alone.

"The White Coats are coming?" When Namu Zhong heard this, he just looked up at the middle-aged Mongolian general in front of him and said lightly. There was not the slightest change in expression on her face. It seems that the arrival of the white-clothed army still has nothing to do with her. It was as if her heart had long been numb. For everything around me, I don't care anymore, I don't care, but I ask.

However, the maids around her have been messed up. Their faces turned extremely pale in an instant, and their bodies trembled obviously. Before they came to Naturalization City, they had already heard about how cruel, bloody, and unloved the white-clothed army was. They are much more ferocious than the wild wolves of the savannah. After arriving in Guihua City, they learned more about the inside story, and they also saw many Mongols who were frightened by the white-clothed army. These Mongols were all frightened in the Battle of Baihuze.

In the entire battle of Baihuze, there were more than 15,000 Mongolian warriors who fell in front of the muskets of the white-clothed army. This was definitely the heaviest loss the Mongols had suffered since the Tumubao Rebellion. Can they not be nervous in the face of such a ferocious enemy? If it falls into the hands of the white-clothed army, who knows what kind of inhuman fate will happen? These poor women are always the most hurt in war.

"Yes, the White Coats are here." Hiroyoshi stabbed bitter response. This middle-aged Mongolian general, called Hongji Thorn, was a warrior of Namu Zhong's tribe and was good at archery. This time, it was he who escorted Namu Zhong to Naturalization City. Strictly speaking, he should be considered a close confidant of Namu Zhong, and he is not too close to her two brothers.

Originally, everything was calm, the water was quiet and the river was flying, just waiting for Lin Dan Khan to return triumphantly, and he could marry Namu Zhong. As long as the wedding is completed, the task of Hongji's thorn can be regarded as completed. However, the sudden arrival of the white-clothed army made Hongji Thorn immediately realize that something was wrong. He subconsciously felt that he was afraid that all this would have to change.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The gunfire outside, continuously, became more and more intense, more and more intensive. Judging from the distance, it is getting closer and closer. Experienced people know that the White Clothes Army is not just as simple as attacking Guihua City. They are coming to siege the city. Such a fierce gunfire shows that the number of white-clothed soldiers arriving will definitely not be small.
