Chapter 4: Did the Wolf Guard Perish Due to a Natural Disaster???

Everyone on the scene fell into a moment of contemplation.

If the Wolf Guard numbers fewer than ten thousand, they are invincible.

This is not just recorded in historical texts, but a true portrayal of history.

Relying on the Giant Wolf, the combat power of the Wolf Guard was far superior to ordinary cavalry.

Once, three thousand Wolf Guard of the Wolf Tribe defeated ten kingdoms in Bei Yu, even reaching the Central Sea.

And now, the remains in the Dahuang Mountain Range are very likely that same mysteriously vanished Wolf Guard.

Being so formidable, they could be said to be nearly invincible in the world at that time.

In the end, how were they wiped out?

"Is it possible they encountered a natural disaster?" a geography expert spoke up.

"It is possible; most of their remains are buried under mountain rocks and soil, which fits the characteristics of a mudslide."

"Indeed, according to the photos and videos from the site, it matches the characteristics of a landslide."

"Yes, we tested over two hundred soil samples from the mountain, the mountainside, and the foot of the mountain.

The soil distribution here matches the characteristics of a landslide."

"If this Wolf Guard is truly the one from a thousand years ago, and they were ultimately wiped out by natural disasters like a landslide.

Heaven bless our glorious Daxia!"

The crowd sighed with emotion.

If history were truly like this, they felt it would be very simple, yet quite reasonable.

The Great Han Dynasty of the Daxia Clan once launched an expedition against the Ancient Xi Kingdom.

Unfortunately, they encountered a great flood on the way and eventually returned.

Otherwise, the Ancient Xi Kingdom would have been destroyed long ago.

History is sometimes just that screwed up.

Everyone felt it was very reasonable.

A Wolf Guard expeditionary force to Dafeng suddenly encountered heavy rain in the Dahuang Mountain Range.

In the end, this army camped in place, and at night, a sudden landslide occurred; the once-invincible Wolf Guard was ultimately buried by mountain rocks and mudflows, dying in the valley.

This is very reasonable and stands up to scrutiny.

However, at this moment, the expert Liu Chengchao spoke up:

"There are some problems with this.

Such a natural disaster is certainly terrifying, but given the strength of the Wolf Guard, it is impossible that not a single person escaped; disasters like mudslides and landslides have a time effect, and with the terrifying natural attributes of creatures like the Giant Wolf, it is impossible they would have no way to deal with a landslide.

If this was a ten-thousand-strong Wolf Guard, such a large-scale Wolf Guard could not have been completely wiped out by a landslide.

If it were a small-scale Wolf Guard of dozens or hundreds, they might have suffered heavy casualties or even been completely annihilated.

But this is very likely a ten-thousand-strong Wolf Guard!"

Everyone on the scene frowned.

The geographer who proposed this hypothesis was also thinking.

He naturally knew that his hypothesis was full of loopholes.

However, many historical realities, and even physical theories, are derived from bold conjectures and careful verification.

No matter how absurd a conjecture is, they can propose it.

After all, these are just conjectures for others to reference.

"If it wasn't a natural disaster, then what was it?"

"A natural disaster might just be one of the factors."

"Yes, there is too much strangeness revealed in this."

"Why have these remains been preserved for so many years?

How many Wolf Guard are buried in the Dahuang Mountain Range?

Why did they die? Besides encountering a natural disaster, did they encounter any other enemies?"

The people present discussed continuously, and news regarding the Dahuang Mountain Range continued to arrive.

"Everyone, currently in the Dahuang Mountain Range, there are a total of 725 Wolf Tribe remains and 424 Giant Wolf remains.

This is merely the tip of the iceberg, indicating that this is definitely a full regiment of the Wolf Guard.

Moreover, an iron slip was found next to one of the remains.

So far, a total of three such iron slips have been discovered."

A photo appeared on the conference room screen.

In the photo, there was a rusted iron slip; this iron slip was oval-shaped with a hollow triangle in the middle.

"The style of this iron slip is indeed a creation from the Atiemuda period of the Wolf Tribe," a historian spoke up.

"This is... a Golden Crown Iron Slip," a Wolf Tribe research scholar adjusted his glasses, "The Wolf Tribe worships the Giant Wolf, and the iron slip is an accessory of the Giant Wolf. The Wolf King Atiemuda Jinke of that time crafted one hundred Golden Crown Iron Slips and bestowed them upon the most formidable warriors of the Wolf Tribe.

Eighty percent of these one hundred Golden Crown Iron Slips belonged to the Wolf Guard."

"Atiemuda Jinke, is that the Wolf King who almost destroyed Dafeng?"

"Yes!"

The people on the scene were shocked.

It seems this really is that Wolf Guard.

A full ten-thousand-strong Wolf Guard seems to have died in the Dahuang Mountain Range.

What could be the reason for this?

"If it is that Wolf Guard, a full ten thousand elites."

An Ordinary natural disaster is not enough to annihilate them.

"What if it were a natural disaster compounded by human calamity?"

Suddenly, an expert offered their own opinion.

Many people fell into deep thought.

If that was not a simple natural disaster, or rather, if there were human factors involved.

Ordinary mudslides, landslides, and the like would cause significant damage; if there were human participation to amplify these natural disasters.

Then, the lethality caused would be extremely terrifying.

"Great Demon Heize!"

Suddenly, Liu Chengchao spoke these four words.

"Beside those remains, there is a stone tablet, and on the stone tablet, it is written in ancient Wolf script: Great Demon Heize, these four words!"

"What connection does this stone tablet have with these Wolf Guards?"

"Could it be that this stone tablet was carved by those Wolf Guards? There are quite a few problems within this."

"Is it possible that the stone tablet has no connection to these Wolf Guards?"

"Boldly guessing, it is also possible that there is a connection."

The crowd discussed animatedly, expressing their own views.

For them, discovering history from a thousand years ago is a matter sufficient to be excited and thrilled about.

This can also be considered a kind of alternative witnessing of history.

At this moment, the Law Enforcement Guard captain Zhao Guoyan, who had been silent, suddenly interjected.

"Is it possible that the Wolf Guards invaded us.

Heize was a general, and he led his subordinates to surround and annihilate the Wolf Guards in the Dahuang Mountain Range.

Among them, those Wolf Guards hated Heize very much, so they carved the stone tablet?"

The others listened to Zhao Guoyan's words and fell into thought.

Liu Chengchao revealed a smile: "Dafeng Dynasty does not lack talent, but the country is corrupt from its roots.

Perhaps there was a brave and battle-hardened general, but there were definitely no battle-hardened troops.

The military service system of the Dafeng Dynasty mostly consists of civilians turned into soldiers; they might not even be able to beat bandits, so how could they beat the Wolf Guards?

However, what Guoyan said is also very possible.

This Heize was a general; his soldiers might not have been strong, but by utilizing some geography to amplify the natural disaster, it is still possible that he could have severely wounded the Wolf Guards."

"That is impossible." Immediately, someone expressed a different opinion, "To be able to annihilate the Wolf Guards is enough to leave one's name in history; why have we not seen any historical records regarding this battle?

Who is Heize? We have no idea at all.

To be dispatched by the Dafeng Dynasty to lead an army to fight against the Wolf Guards, this must definitely be a famous and well-known official of the Dafeng Dynasty.

But after searching through the Dafeng Dynasty official records, there is not a single general named Heize."

"Regarding information about Heize, has anyone found anything?"
