In the 23rd year of Daheng Jinghe, the seven sons of the Gu family guarded Yanhui Pass in the north for generations.
An urgent imperial edict from Nanguan passed over the six brothers and named Gu Chengyuan, the youngest of the Gu family, and ordered him to lead a battalion of 8,000 soldiers to go south for rescue.
Everyone thought it was just an expedition.
Only Gu Chengyuan discovered that the troop mobilization post coupons sent with the imperial edict came five days earlier than the emergency at Nanguan.
After he left, defenses in the north were changed, beacon signals were changed, and food routes were cut off. When he was victorious at Nanpingguan, what was waiting for him was not a reward, but an edict that his father and brother collaborated with the enemy and Gumen was punished.
In the city of Chengjing, his mother and six sisters-in-law were detained for interrogation, and the murder case was secretly traced using confessions, seals, trade routes, and lists of wounded soldiers; outside the Nanguan, Gu Chengyuan led the 8,000 remnant troops and Shuofeng's 18 Cavalry, embarking on a road back north that was faced with enemies all over the world.
What he wants to find out is not just why a loyalist was designated as a rebel.
He also wanted to ask about the Chengjing City:
When soldiers guard the land and bleed, are they guarding the emperor's country or the country of the world?
