The journey was delayed, and at the end of midsummer, Wei Zeng and his party arrived at Yushan.
Several people deliberately speeded up along the way, hoping to reach Yushan as soon as possible, but their whereabouts were exposed instead.
In addition, two female relatives followed, which attracted the arrival of horse thieves and Zhantu people from Mobei.
Fortunately, the name of Mobei Flying Eagle is very resounding on the grassland, and the people traveling with them are all people with outstanding martial arts skills, so there are no dangers along the way, but the journey along the way is also delayed because of this.
Yushan Mountain in the distance is still green, and the fields in the north are still dark green.
Everything seems peaceful.
But Wei Zeng had already learned that just when Huang Yufei and the three of them left Yushan, Bai Zhengheng had led his troops to launch an attack.
Now, all the important roads leading to the depths of Yushan have been tightly guarded by the Iron-Blooded Army.
With.
Wei Zeng knew that if his group was surrounded by the iron-blooded army, it would be a disaster, so he asked the group to look for traces and follow some trails into the depths of Yushan Mountain.
"The ones in front are the iron-blooded warriors.
The iron-blooded warriors are very difficult to deal with whether they are fighting on the plains or in the mountains.
If our enemy is them this time, we will have to go through a lot of trouble."
Wei Zeng looked ahead at the intersection.
A group of defensive soldiers frowned and said.
"This is the military soldier that Bai Zhengzheng reorganized, but it is far inferior to the iron-blooded military soldiers of the past.
I have fought with them, and apart from being able to form the most basic square formation, there are no other changes at all.
That's it.
Zhuangshi Zhao and I can deal with these people, but in order to avoid trouble, please ask General Wei to follow me into the mountain via the trail," Huang Yufei replied.
Wei Zeng nodded and had no intention of going forward to fight with the soldiers.
He followed Huang Yufei into the mountains along an unknown path.
The mountain road was rugged, but people and horses could barely pass it.
After stepping through patches of grass and bushes, a mountain village appeared in front of Wei Zeng.
Wei Zeng recognized this place.
It turned out to be the former site of Yanlong Village.
When the Yushan bandits were put down, this first stronghold at the southern foot of Yushan was also the first to be wiped out by Wei Zeng.
Unexpectedly, this place would now become the last refuge for the remnants of the Yanbei rebel army.
"The terrain of this place is difficult to defend and difficult to attack, so Commander Gu led us to settle here.
However, in order to prevent the enemy from being surrounded on the mountain, we specially opened a secret road in and out of the village.
Now there are Iron-Blooded Army soldiers everywhere.
Spy, please ask General Wei to follow me into the village through the secret passage."
As Huang Yufei spoke, he stepped forward to lead the way.
But just at this moment, there was a noise in the trees beside them, and the figure of an Iron-Blooded Army soldier appeared.
"You are..."
Before the soldier could react, Wendy, who had always been alert, had already struck out with his fast sword.
With just a simple sound, the man fell to the ground and died.
Just with the sound of this man falling to the ground, more iron-blooded soldiers rushed out from the bushes, preparing to capture a few people.
"Protect General Wei as he enters the stronghold.
We will take the rear here."
Zhao Jiahui shouted and rushed towards the iron-blooded soldiers who came out.
Du Feng did not flinch and faced him with bare hands.
"Wei Zeng is the one who should be summoned quickly.
Killing him is a great achievement."
One person shouted.
The iron soldiers walking at the end heard the shouts from the people in front, and quickly put their hands on their waists, and were about to shoot a communication tube into the sky.

But only to hear this man yell, a throwing knife was inserted in his hand, and the communication tube fell to the ground.
"Do you want to kill me to receive the reward?
It's a pity that you don't have this blessing."
Wei Zeng did not choose to escape.
He stopped the enemy's message with a flying knife.
He picked up the steel staff and fought side by side with several others.
Naturally, the few iron-blooded soldiers were no match for Wei Zeng and his party.
Soon, they were defeated by Wei Zeng and his party.
However, the deep mountains and dense forests were not conducive to pursuit, so a few of them escaped.
"Everyone, hurry up and enter the stronghold.
A few people have run away.
I'm afraid the enemy's large force will arrive soon.
Let's check and let him take precautions."
Seeing that no one was injured, Wei Zeng quickly led people to the stronghold.
Running in the direction, the whereabouts of several people have been exposed, so they no longer cover up and ran directly to the gate on the post.
When the people in the stockade heard the noise outside, they also stood on the sentry tower to look down.
When they saw Wei Zeng's figure, the people in the stockade were very excited.
Amidst cheers, the gate of the stockade was opened, and many people Everyone came out to greet Wei Zeng.
"Everyone, don't block the door.
General Wei will not leave once he comes.
He will lead us to continue to conquer the world.
Brothers, hurry into the stronghold and don't let the enemy in."
Huang Yufei shouted loudly.
It turned out that when the people in the village warmly welcomed Wei Zeng's arrival, the shadow of the Iron Blood Army's large force had already appeared in the mountains and forests in the distance.
Not many people came out, but it was very narrow on the hill.
With nearly a hundred people jammed together, it was already suffocating.
In order to prevent Wei Zeng from being in danger, Huang Yufei and Zhao Jiahui protected Wei Zeng behind them, forced their way out of the crowd, and entered the village.
When the Jagged Army arrived under the stronghold, all defenses were ready.
Seeing that the gate of the stronghold was closed, the Iron-Blooded Army was well prepared for the people in the stronghold.
After several rounds of heavy crossbow volleys, they did not attack the stronghold and instead stationed themselves under the mountain.
"Wei Zeng, it's great that you can come.
Brother, I miss you so much.
Don't worry, my stronghold is very strong.
Even if more people come, we won't be able to capture it.
Let's go in and have a good talk."
Gu Cha saw him.
Wei Zeng was very happy.
He stood on the wall and glanced down.
Then he pulled Wei Zeng nonchalantly into the house.
"We have plenty of time to talk, and it is more important to respond to the enemy now.
I think the enemy's posture is to surround us.
I am afraid more people will come, so we must be well prepared."
Wei Zeng pushed gently.
He opened Gu Chayi's hand and said.
"That's true.

As long as we defeat the enemy, we will have plenty of time to talk to each other.
I think you are worried too, so I will take you around the village and tell you the situation in the village."
Gu Cha replied. road.
"There are only so many brothers left who fought with us back then.
If they are willing to follow us to the end, then we should be responsible for them to the end.
Please show me around."
Wei Zeng patted Gu Chayi's Shoulder said.
When Gu Cha looked at Wei Zeng, he seemed to have returned to the days when he first met him.
In those days, his father was killed by robbers, and he lost his backbone and was completely confused.
But with a calm and determined friend by his side, it seemed that there was nothing scary about the unknown future.
Now that he was reunited with his friends, his eyes were still calm, but a little less hard as steel and a little more compassionate like running water.
With Wei Zeng here, the thousands of troops outside the village seemed to have disappeared, and the people in the village were full of confidence in their future.
Gu Chayi took Wei Zeng around the village.
The village was built on a mountain.
There were steep cliffs on the east and west sides.
Only the high hills on the north and south sides had two gates to enter and exit the village.
The stockade stretches for more than two miles from north to south, but is less than 200 meters from east to west.
On the narrow stockade wall, there is a platform for standing guard every 100 meters.
Six watchtowers are located at the four corners of the stockade and in the middle of the east and west walls. , no matter day or night, there are people guarding the watchtower.
Along the way, Wei Zeng saw that the stockade was very well designed, which showed that Gu Chayi had also put in a lot of effort.
"The hills in front make many siege equipment ineffective, and the steep terrain can also become a nightmare for infantry attacks.
The defense of the stockade is very good.
As long as you are careful, it will not be a problem to deal with more enemies.
But I think Most of the villages are where people live, and there is no farmable land around them.
If things continue like this, won't there be problems with food supply?"
Wei Zeng asked.
"You are right.
I originally chose this place because the terrain here is dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack.
But who could have imagined that the river is at the foot of the mountain and there is no open space around it.
It has become a problem to feed myself.
Later I I want to build several villages in the surrounding areas and People moved there and planted some land randomly to solve the problem of food shortage.
However, in the past few years, wars have continued and enemies often came.
As a result, nothing was accomplished.
It was all because of the brothers who worked hard to grab food from the tiger's mouth.
We.
Only then can I hold on until now," Gu Chayi said.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious.
As long as you repel the enemy and want to live, you will always find a way.
I took a look at the granary.
The stored food can still last for a while.
As long as there is food in stock, people will not panic.
Call the generals to the meeting hall, and let's discuss how to defeat the Iron-Blooded Army as soon as possible."
Wei Zeng understood the situation in the village and had a plan in his mind as to how to find a way out for these veteran soldiers.
Already had a vague idea.
On the way back to the meeting hall, Wei Zeng and Gu Chayi continued to discuss some things.

When passing by a house, they saw two children playing next to the house.
"Wei Zeng, I forgot to tell you, this boy is my son Songyin.
Songyin come here quickly and pay homage to your Uncle Wei."
Gucha greeted with a smile.
"I was just a little kid back then, but now I'm so big.
I'll definitely be a hero again in a few years."
Wei Zeng said with a smile.
"I'm not a talent, I'm not a talent.
I don't like studying like I did back then.
I only like dancing and playing with sticks.
But I will definitely not starve to death in the future."
Although Gu Cha said this, when he heard his son being praised, his face changed.
His smile never fell off, and it could be seen that he was very happy.
"Who is that child?"
Wei Zeng looked at the other child standing aside.
His face seemed very familiar and he asked.
"That's Yu Chaogui's son.
Yu Chaogui died early.
The mother and son are very pitiful.
I asked Xiu Xiu to take good care of them."
Gu Cha replied.
"Julian Jing, I remembered your name correctly."
Wei Zeng stepped forward and said lovingly.
"Hello, General Wei.
My mother has always told me that General Wei is a great hero.
When I grow up, I will also be a great hero like General Wei."
Julien Jing said.
"Heroes and mortals are nothing more than this.
As long as the people you care about can live a happy life, you will have no regrets.
As long as you are willing, you can gain prosperity in the future, but I only hope that you can get the prosperity after prosperity.
That's a great achievement," Wei Zeng said.
"I don't understand what General Wei said," Julien blinked in surprise and asked.
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now.
Just remember that as long as you honor your mother and sincerely help everyone in the village, when you grow up, you will be a big hero.
When you grow up, you can go to Yishan to find You will understand when the time comes," Wei Zeng said with a smile.
"Wei Zeng, after so many years, you still can't let go?"
Gucha asked the two children to leave, and then said to Wei Zeng.
"Life is so fleeting, we meet and get to know countless people, but there are only a few that can make people care about them all the time.
If I forget all those people I care about, what on earth have I been doing in this life?
A prosperous life will eventually follow the wind.
Go; there are only a few people left, let’s go to the meeting hall and talk about how to deal with the Jagged Army."
Wei Zeng said nothing more and went straight to the meeting hall.
When Gu Chayi took Wei Zeng to inspect the village, he had already asked people to notify the generals.
When Wei Zeng and Gu Cha entered the meeting hall, everyone arrived.
The former commander-in-chief of the Guanshan Army, the former warrior of the cavalry, everything seems to have returned to the days when the iron horses fought fiercely on the battlefield.

But Wei Zeng understands that the past has passed, and what is lost will never come back.
He has no thoughts about fighting for world hegemony, he just wants to see the soldiers who are still alive survive to the end.
As soon as Wei Zeng and Gu Cha walked to the center of the lobby and sat down separately, everyone looked at Wei Zeng, as if the hope for the future lay in Wei Zeng alone.
"You have also seen that I have invited your General Wei back.
I, Gu Chayi, have limited abilities and cannot lead everyone to live a good life, but my brother Wei is a capable person.
As long as he is here, we will definitely be able to reproduce The glory of that day."
Gu Chayi said in public.
"The generals of Wei are mighty and the ancient commanders are mighty," all the generals said in unison.
"The plan for now is to first repel the Iron-Blooded Army, and secondly to settle down the families in the village so that everyone can have food and clothing without worries.
The way you used to make a living is really too dangerous, and it won't work in the long run.
But Don’t worry, everyone, I, Wei Zeng, will share the joys and sorrows with you and face all difficulties together.
No matter it is the Iron Blood Army or any natural disaster, nothing can stop us."
Wei Zeng said.
"As long as General Wei is here, we will definitely be able to regain Shifeng City and recapture the entire Yanbei.
By then, everyone will be able to live a good life."
The generals agreed one after another.
"I don't plan to take you to attack Shifeng City.
Shifeng City is very strong and is now heavily guarded by Marshal Bai Zhengzheng.
We cannot conquer it.
I plan to take you to the north.
Of course, we must first drive away the enemy in front of us.
Say it again."
Wei Zeng said
