In the distance, a towering city wall could be seen. That was Qing Yu's destination—Feiyun Pass.
Feiyun Pass's city circumference was eight li (about 2.6 miles), and the walls were connected to the Dayun and Mingwu mountains, making it a major stronghold of Northern Zhou's border.
It and Kuocang Pass were both critical points in preventing the invasion from the Northern Grasslands. However, due to Feiyun Pass's advantageous position and the many barriers beyond it, the grassland people's primary target for attacks had always been Kuocang Pass.
After Feng Jiwu's ascension to the throne, Feiyun Pass gained an additional function besides defending against the invasion of Lang Man. It began to accept all the exiled criminals from Northern Zhou as their place of imprisonment.
