Zhang Jin asked the hundred households to find someone, and he returned to his tent to rest.

They were traveling lightly and did not even have a stove. Inside the tent, they just piled firewood and lit a bonfire.

Zhang Jin and the remaining 100 households sat down around the bonfire. He first added a little wood to it, and then stretched out a pair of rough and heavy hands to warm themselves over the bonfire.

Even a tough guy is afraid of the cold.

Not long after, the hundred households came in with a young man.

"Master Xiaowei, his name is Wang Ji." Baihu bowed to Zhang Jin and introduced him.

"Sir Captain." Wang Ji quickly bent down and saluted Zhang.

Zhang Jin withdrew his hands and raised his eyes to look at Wang Ji. He was about 25 or 26 years old. He was ordinary in appearance, but his eyes were very smart and he seemed to be clever.

"I want to send you, as the servant of the county magistrate Hu Zhi's family, to contact Liu Chong, one of the two thousand captains in Shanguang City. Do you dare?"

Zhang Jin withdrew his eyes and spoke in a consultative tone without forcing him.

They are all a mob, and their willpower will not be too strong. If you push people too much, I'm afraid it will be self-defeating. It's better for you and me to agree.

Wang Ji was stunned for a moment. When Baihu called him, he knew something was going on. But he didn't expect it to be something like this.

If you do this kind of thing, it will definitely not end well if it is revealed.

But after Wang Ji thought about it for a while, he decided to do it.

Firstly, he has a grudge against the Meng Yuan people, and secondly, the Wang family currently only consists of him, his brother, his sister-in-law, and his nephew.

I heard that General Wu has always been generous to his subordinates. He will be rewarded for his merits and punished for his mistakes. Wealth and honor are found in danger. If you can win this vote, it will be a great achievement.

If you lose, there should be a pension.

Thinking of this, Wang Ji took a deep breath, with a serious look on his face, clasped his fists and bent down and said, "Dare you. But I have a request."

"explain."

Zhang Jin still looked pleasant and said simply.

"Please captain, please send my brother, sister-in-law, and nephew to Beishan Fort. If I die, please captain, please treat them kindly." Wang Ji sincerely requested.

Zhang Jin's face moved slightly, and he took a deep look at Wang Ji. Then he said with a smile: "Don't worry. You won't die. Even if something happens, your family will receive compensation."

"Thank you, Captain, for your kind words." Of course Wang Ji didn't want to die, but he also knew that Zhang Jin's words were just to comfort him.

"Okay. I'll tell you about the situation at Linghu Zhi's house. Keep it in your mind." Zhang Jin said in a deep voice.

"Yeah." Wang Ji nodded and listened with his ears straightened up.

Immediately, Zhang Jin told Wang Ji everything he knew about the situation in Linghuzhi's home. Then, he secretly sent someone to send Wang Ji away.

After a while, Zhang Jin stood up, looked around at the ten hundred households, and said: "The mountain roads and snowy roads are not easy to walk on. We will set off today and pretend to attack Guyun City tomorrow. Although it is a feint attack, we must show real strength.

The momentum of the siege cannot be ignored."

"Yes." Hundreds of households bowed down and responded, then filed out and gave the order. Soon after, the tents were all evacuated. Zhang Jin kicked the bonfire away and strode forward, leading nine thousand people.

The mob headed towards Ancient Cloud City.

Ancient Cloud City.

The snow on the plain outside the city was getting thicker and thicker without anyone clearing it. However, there was no snow on the main cross-shaped road, and the soil was exposed.

In such a winter, people's activities almost stop. People in the city stay in the city, and people in the villages outside the city stay in the village.

Occasionally, when people enter or leave the city, there is no need for the government to clear the roads.

But the officials of Guyun City did this. It was to supply food and grass for the front. Around Yundang Mountain, there were thousands of households of Mongolian warriors, who were fat and strong, and their food and drink were supplied by the four cities. They must

Keep roads clear.

There are very few pedestrians on the roads in the city. Even if there are occasional people walking on the streets, they come and go in a hurry.

County magistrate's office, inside the hall.

The county magistrate Zhou Shu was wearing a black cotton-padded jacket and a bearskin hat on his head. He was sitting on the main seat. Below him were the county magistrate Hu Zhi, the commander-in-chief Xu Min, and Lu Gu.

The mountain road is difficult to walk, and now Wan Yanxian has ordered the county guards to defend the city, and the order to stand still has not yet been issued. How to meet the enemy is discussed.

Although the city guards were Xu Min and Lu Gu, Zhou Shu and Linghu Zhizhi were firmly seated as county magistrates and county magistrates, and their power was not small. The two sides were on equal footing, and there was no claim that one could outdo the other.

Zhou Shu picked up the hot tea on the coffee table, took a pleasant sip and put it down. Then he looked at Xu Min and Lu Gu said: "Two generals. Wu Nian is very famous. He killed four Mongolian and Yuan commanders and nearly five.

Qianmeng Yuan's warriors. I think it's best to close the city gate and not fight him."

That's what Xu Min and Lu Gu didn't understand. The county magistrate was afraid that they would get high and go out of the city to fight Wu Nian and eat the weights for themselves.

They smiled bitterly in their hearts, even if you don't tell us, we don't dare to leave the city. Wu Nian is a fierce tiger. The tiger is outside the city, but it wants to kill people.

"Don't worry, sir. General Lu and I are not planning to chop off Wu Nian's head. This dream of making great achievements is unrealistic. We will do our best to defend the city. Please also cooperate with us, recruit militiamen and supply food." Xu Min took a deep breath.

He took a breath and said with cupped fists.

Lu Gu nodded and expressed his support.

Zhou Shu's face stretched out as if a flower was blooming. Then he turned to look at Linghu Zhi, and both of them smiled knowingly.

Don't be afraid of opponents who are like gods, only be afraid of teammates who are like pigs.

Only those who can recognize how much they weigh are worthy of living.

These two are good people.

"Don't worry, generals, I will take care of the things that belong to me. Let us Jin Cheng cooperate to defend the city and resist Wu Nian."

Zhou Shu's voice was loud and he used too much force, causing his face to turn red and his breathing to be somewhat rapid.

Xu Min and Lu Gu smiled slightly, cupped their fists and saluted. After a while, the two of them left. Only Zhou Shu and Linghu Zhi were left in the hall.

"Although the Han people have just established Wanhu, the quality of the army is worrying. But we have given the soldiers enough food and wages, and the morale of the soldiers is high. There are also many bows and arrows in the city. The defense of the city must be stable."

"Besides, Wanyan Wanhu is at Yundang Mountain. After he eats Long Qi, he can come back to rescue us. Wu Nian from Beishan Fort will definitely lose everything this time. We can rest easy."

Zhou Shu showed a proud look on his face and said to Linghu Zhi.

"If you don't sit back and relax, your whole family will die. County magistrate, it's better not to be complacent and calm down." Linghu Zhi shook his head and said seriously.

Zhou Shu's expression froze, his heart trembled, and he nodded heavily.

Now Wu Nian is not only a thorn in the side of the Meng Yuan people, but also a thorn in their side.

He was originally a minor official in Guyun County. He was able to lick the Meng Yuan people on his knees and had some influence in his family, so he became the county magistrate.

I thought that the Meng Yuan people were invincible, lonely and empty. Unexpectedly, Wu Nian was like a cockroach, tenaciously surviving in the ice and snow, and even fractured Jinhuan Mountain.

This is a dangerous thing.

It also made it impossible for officials like myself who had taken refuge with the Mongolians to be completely proud.

Wu Nian had killed everyone in the Liu family because of the plague. If Wu Nian had gained power, he might have killed his whole family, including the surrendered officials.

We must do things steadily and not let Wu Nian see any flaws.
