Naruto: History of the Warring States Period

The northern part of the empire, Taiken City, is a medium-sized city near Lelang City, not far from the northern border of the empire and close to the administrative center of the Northern Army.

Taiken City, if placed in the prosperous central or southern part of the empire, could not be regarded as a big city. The scale of a population of more than 100,000. It can only be regarded as second-rate at best, but in the north of the empire, it is already the most prosperous place in the north.

This is the business road leading to the northern region, the second largest city that can be passed through, the caravans from the south and the caravans from the north will all converge here, all kinds of rare goods trafficked from the southeast of the empire, and Cattle and sheep or leather merchants who crossed the desert and trafficked from the northwestern grasslands will also stop here.

The carriage had just approached the outskirts of Taiken City, and Yuzan had already opened the window of the car, enjoying the scenery outside.

In the northern part of the empire, due to geographical reasons, there is a wind and snow season of one or two months every year. This season is just before the wind and snow season. Although the ground is not covered with snow as imagined, it is also in the sky at this time. There has been a flutter of snowflakes.

The wind is strong, this is the characteristic of the north, so the buildings here are not too tall, like the grand mansion of the imperial capital, or the buildings such as towers that are more than ten meters high, there is absolutely no land.

The tallest building in Taycan City. It is the city wall of Taiken City. The 12-meter-high city wall is in full compliance with the imperial military system.

And because they are common low-rise buildings, this city with a population of only over 100,000 has a large area.

Although Yuzan was "pushed" out of the imperial capital for the purpose of "exile" and "expulsion" by the emperor, it is also because Yuzan is his son after all, and he represents the face of the royal family, so our emperor is also here It was rare and generous once, and a thousand imperial forest troops were dispatched to protect Yuzan's safety along the way.

And since Yuzan has passed through so many cities these days, he has also been warmly received by officials at all levels in each city.

In the south of Taiken City, it is the largest market here. It was originally a town outside the city, but it has evolved into the largest trading place for business groups traveling from north to south. When Yuzan's motorcade passed by here, it immediately felt it. There is noisy atmosphere here.

As he passed by the road, Yuzan overlooked the market not far away, with crowds and shoulders, those with flat noses and curly hair dressed in cows and sheepskins from the northern foreign races, and merchants from all over the empire, riding horses, and driving livestock. Groups, and those shops with all kinds of leather goods...

One after another disturbed, noisy.

Looking at the crowds coming and going, Yuzan's eyes were aimed at the money bags of these merchants.

"This place is the largest trading place in the north. Although the city of Taiken has a small population, its annual business tax revenue is extremely objective. The land in the north is barren and it is not good at producing grain, especially this city of Taiken, as the capital of the north. The second largest city outside Lelang City, the annual business tax revenue is five times more than the agricultural tax. This is really a good place... It seems that I have to speed up..."

Looking at this small town in Yuzan's eyes with a strange expression, Yuzan thought like this in his heart.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

...

The northern border of the empire is further north from Lelang City, the capital of the north, and even though the south is still in a mild climate at this time, it is now in an icy world.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

The ground was shaking, but a group of "dragon-shaped" dangerous plants were running freely on this grassland covered by ice and snow.

These blue-skinned "dragon-shaped" dangerous species are said to be "dragon-shaped" but in fact they are only level 3 dangerous species, and at this time they are in a hidden shadow area not far from this "dragon-shaped" dangerous species. , A group of people wearing costumes with sharp ethnic characteristics are hiding here, about 40 people.

"Attention everyone, get ready for battle!"

Quietly feeling the vibration frequency of the ground, a middle-aged man with a light blue short hair whispered to the people around him.

This middle-aged man was called Gerald and was the leader of this group. Similarly, this group of people belonged to an ancient clan that specializes in hunting dangerous species at the border between the empire and the northern alien race, the Baruts clan.

"Esdes, you pay attention to see clearly!"

After waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour again, feeling that the vibration frequency of the ground was getting bigger and bigger, Gerald suddenly faced a curiosity standing next to him and also had long light blue hair. Said the little girl.

This little girl is the only daughter of Gerald. Although she was only seven years old at this time, even though she was at the age of being taken care of by her parents, whether she was in the aristocratic family of the imperial capital or in the commoner family, she was at the age of being taken care of by her parents. Among the ancient peoples specializing in hunting dangerous species, because of their ancient way of life and frequent battles with dangerous species, this also led to the fact that the population of this nation is becoming more and more sparse at this time.

This also caused the Baruts adults to cultivate their children’s fighting skills since they were young. As the best talented young generation of the Baruts, Asdes is even more so. At this age of only seven years old, he was brought out by his patriarch father to participate in actual combat...

"Come on, everyone, follow the battle plan we said before! Go!"

In the distance, you can see the silhouettes of the level 3 "dragon-shaped" dangerous species in the running. Gerald immediately gave a loud order, and then rushed out first...

"Roar!"

The sudden appearance of a group of humans made the already grumpy dangerous species begin to become anxious, and roared loudly at the group of people who appeared on the opposite side while running.

"Drink, drink, drink!"

After dozens of people appeared, they spread out in an instant, grouped in groups of four, quickly divided into several teams, and surrounded the group of dangerous species that had impacted on the opposite side...

...

Taican City, at this time, a grand farewell party is being held in the City Lord's Mansion of Taican City.

This is the three days since Yuzan arrived at Taycan City. In these days, Yuzan will stay in the city for a few days every time he passes through the city to get a little understanding of the city's situation in secret.

"His Royal Highness, you have to take care when you go to Lelang City. I have already received Master Ornest's instructions. Regarding all your activities in the north, I will give you the greatest support!"

The lord of Taycan City is a fat man with a big belly, which looks a little funny to Yuzan, but this fat man, after welcoming Yuzan on the first day of Yuzan’s arrival, he deliberately met with Yuzan in the evening. On the one hand, it also let Yuzan learn that this guy is actually the confidant of Ornest, because he was instructed by Ornest to cooperate with Yuzan's actions in the north...
