[Mirror Lake County]
[Green Valley]
The sun, shrouded in a thin veil, lazily strolled in the sky. In the distance, under clouds resembling tufts of cotton, Qingmeng Mountain and Yunque Mountain exuded a cool verdant presence.
The provincial road leading from the Qingyin Mountain Pass to Green Valley Town was completely occupied by the marching columns of the Iron Peak County Military.
The long line of wagons carrying the wounded and supplies crawled slowly along the road, stretching endlessly in both directions.
Soldiers carrying weapons advanced through the fields on either side of the road. Although their steps seemed a bit weary, most of them wore expressions of ease and joy.
Occasionally, laughter and heckling erupted from the ranks, and even the military band boldly switched to playing more cheerful tunes.
The nightmare battle had concluded six days ago.
