Lei Hu and Zhao Gang shouted warnings repeatedly. The soldiers, who had not yet taken off their armor, were waiting for danger. After hearing the order, they rushed out one after another and prepared for the attack.

Fang Zian didn't care about the tense atmosphere around him. He looked at a figure illuminated by torches in the distance. The man was wearing a red cloak and was petite. He walked quickly. Although he couldn't see clearly what he looked like.

, but Fang Zian had a hunch that it must be Zhang Ruomei.

Fang Zian hurried forward to greet him. Lei Hu hurriedly said: "Sir, be careful." He was about to step forward to stop him.

Shi Hao stretched out his hand to hold Lei Hu and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, this person is an old friend of Mr. Fang of your family. There is no danger."

Fang Zian stepped forward to greet him, and the group of people on the opposite side quickly came closer. When they were twenty or thirty steps away, the light of the torch illuminated Fang Zian who was standing in the darkness. The woman under the torch slowly took off her hood.

, revealing a pale and thin face, but his eyes were shining brightly under the firelight, and he was extremely excited.

"Is she...cousin?" Zhang Ruomei shouted.

In Lin'an City, in order to conceal Zhang Ruomei's identity, the two of them called themselves cousins. At this moment, the word "cousin" sounded, and Zhang Ruomei burst into tears, and countless beautiful memories flashed through her heart. She thought about it day and night.

The person I was thinking about was right in front of me, and I almost couldn't control my emotions for a while.

"It's...my cousin...hello. You're all right!" Zhang Ruomei called out tremblingly.

Fang Zian laughed, stepped forward slowly, reached out and grabbed Zhang Ruomei's hand and said, "I'm fine, I finally see you."

The two of them stared at each other, with a thousand words in their hearts, but they couldn't say a single word. They just looked at each other with smiles and tears, and clasped their hands.

Everyone around him suddenly realized, especially Wei Gaosheng, who was still a little dissatisfied because of what Fang Zian said before. Fang Zian said that if he didn't report it, Miss Ruomei would scold him in the future. This actually had a threatening tone, which made

Wei Gaosheng was very unhappy. He almost stopped reporting because of his own emotions. But Wei Gaosheng knew the importance after all. He knew that a visitor from the imperial court was a big deal, and regardless of whether Commander Zhang and the others saw him or not, they had to report the news.

, otherwise he would be acting carelessly and making decisions. So he finally sent someone to report the news to the main camp of Fenglong Mountain, and also reported it to Zhang Ruomei. As a result, he got a completely different reply. Zhang Diwan's reply

Although she was determined not to see these people, Zhang Ruomei drove up the mountain road all night and arrived at the pass in the early morning. Wei Gaosheng had to open the door to let her come to see Da Song and the others.

At this moment, Wei Gaosheng finally understood. It turned out that Fang Zian was Miss Ruomei's cousin. No wonder his tone was so tyrannical. But the strange thing is that since he is Miss Ruomei's cousin, he should also be Zhang Diwan's cousin.

Why Commander Zhang refused to see me is really puzzling.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, even though the two of them had all kinds of affection in their hearts, they did not dare to have too many intimate actions.

Fang Zian smiled and said, "Ruomei, Mr. Shi is here too and will take you to meet him."

Zhang Ruomei nodded in response, let go of Fang Zian's hand, and followed Fang Zian to the mission camp. Shi Hao walked forward slowly, smiling and holding his hand.

"Ruomei has met Mr. Shi, but I didn't expect us to meet here." Zhang Ruomei stepped forward and saluted.

Shi Hao chuckled and said, "Yeah, I didn't expect to see Miss Ruomei here. This world seems too small. Miss Ruomei, congratulations on reuniting you with Zian."

Zhang Ruomei nodded shyly. At that moment, Fang Zian introduced Zhang Ruomei to Feng Yiming, Leihu, Zhao Gang and others, and everyone greeted them one by one.

"Let's go to the camp to meet my eldest brother. We didn't treat guests well before. Mr. Shi and all the generals

Don't blame the army." Zhang Ruomei said.

Everyone nodded and broke camp and prepared to leave. Seeing this, Wei Gaosheng came to Zhang Ruomei and whispered: "Miss Ruomei, Commander Zhang said that they are not allowed to enter the camp. It's okay for you to come to see them, but you have to

I’m afraid it’s inappropriate to bring them in. If the commander-in-chief blames them, wouldn’t it be..."

Zhang Ruomei said in a deep voice: "General Wei, don't worry. I will explain it to my brother. If anything happens, I can't blame you. These are all soldiers of the imperial court, not gold thieves. Fang

Your Excellency and Mr. Shi were both kind to me before, so why should we, in this barren mountain and wilderness, keep them out?"

Wei Dongsheng was speechless. Lu Zhendong on the side came up and said, "Yes, what Miss Ruomei said makes sense. Besides, they saved dozens of our brothers. If they hadn't taken action, dozens of us would have been saved."

There’s no way I can come back.”

Zhang Ruomei turned around and saw Lu Zhendong, her face darkened, and she shouted in a cold voice: "Come here, tie up Lu Zhendong and the people who came out privately, and take them to the main camp."

Lu Zhendong was stunned. A group of loyal soldiers came forward and tied up Lu Zhendong. The group of loyal soldiers who followed Lu Zhendong out of the mountain also tied their wrists, tied them into a bunch, and escorted Lu Zhendong into the pass.

Dong walked away dejectedly with his head hanging down, without struggling to defend himself.

"Ruomei is quite dignified as a female general now." Fang Zian laughed softly.

Zhang Ruomei said softly: "Don't laugh at me. Lu Zhendong disobeyed military orders and went out privately. He should be punished. If there is no discipline in the army and everyone acts without permission, wouldn't it lead to chaos?"

Fang Zian smiled and said: "I'm not laughing at you, what you said is right."

Zhang Ruomei nodded and said: "Let's go too, there's still a long way to go."

The team packed up and entered the pass through the huge stone gate under the pass. As the sound of the stone gate closing rang out, Fang Zian and his party found themselves in a bluestone siege. The pass city was not actually big, but it was not only

There is a pass wall blocking the front. Less than a hundred steps away, there is another similar pass. It can be said that it is heavily defended and insurmountable. Even if the first pass wall is breached, the second pass wall can still block the enemy.

After coming out of the second stone wall, my eyes suddenly opened up. It was already bright. Standing behind the pass and looking west, I saw an open valley with dense woods and deep valleys. The vast slopes were covered with white snow. It was extremely spectacular. And

, between the hillsides of the valley, Fang Zian saw several villages, with smoke rising above the villages.

"He, what a paradise." Fang Zian said with a smile.

Zhang Ruomei smiled bitterly and said: "What kind of paradise is there? The mountain people and the common people who fled into the mountains live here, and they are protected by our loyal army and live a hard life. This is only a small part, there are six to seven hundred households near the main camp.

.”

Fang Zian nodded and said: "Very good, although it is hard work, at least it is a pure land. The people outside are much miserable. They are harassed at every turn, and their lives are not much better than in the mountains. In short, under the iron hooves of the Golden Man,

There is no such thing as a good life."

Zhang Ruomei sighed and nodded, but stopped talking.

Following the mountain road and passing through the valley, when the sun rose over the eastern hills, Fang Zian and his party arrived at Wuma Mountain, the second northwest peak. This is the second pass of the village.

The layout is almost the same as the first level. In front of the only accessible road, a stone fortress stands on a high place, blocking the way forward. However, in terms of scale, it is much smaller than the first level. The people guarding the level here are

This is the left camp of the Zhongyi Army. A general named Cao Meng is stationed here.

With Zhang Ruomei accompanying them, they naturally would not be blocked, and everyone passed the second checkpoint and continued on.

When the sun reaches the top of the head in the south, Fenglong Mountain, where the main village is located, is already approaching. The closer to the main village, the more stone towers and fortresses are on both sides of the mountain road, and the more loyal soldiers appear on the slopes on both sides. You can see both sides of the mountain.

There are facilities such as stone beacon towers and watchtowers, as well as many long ropes and steep cliffs. According to Zhang Ruomei, it is because transportation between the cliffs is inconvenient, so it is used to deliver supplies and news.

These long ropes can be used to transport necessary supplies between steep cliffs. This was Zhang Diwan's idea.

Fang Zian nodded secretly. It seems that Commander Zhang is not a fool. He must be a smart person who can come up with these tricks. This makes the person Fang Zian had sketched in his mind before be brave and brave, but probably not very smart.

There is a big gap in Zhang Diwan's image. At present, it seems that Zhang Diwan is by no means a simple-minded person with well-developed limbs.

The mountain road curved around the hillside, and in front of us, the main peak of Fenglong Mountain was clearly in front of us. The mountain road was located on the mountainside. At this moment, the mountain road came to an abrupt end, and what lay in front of us was a huge rift valley more than seven or eight feet wide.

This rift completely blocks the two mountains. Looking down, the place where the sun doesn't reach is cold and forbidding. The trees below the rift are dark, and the clouds and mist are flowing. I don't know how deep it is. The biting cold wind blows up from the rift, like it's coming from hell.

The wind blowing up in the air was terrifying.

"This... this is a dead end. Where can we go?" Shi Hao said angrily, holding his cane and looking at the situation in front of him. There were steep mountains everywhere, and the only mountain road was cut off by the canyon. There seemed to be no other way except turning back.

path.

Fang Zian held Shi Hao's arm and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, sir, there must be a way."

Zhang Ruomei smiled, pointed to the other side of the canyon and said, "Look what's over there?"

Everyone looked in the direction she pointed and saw a straight cliff standing in the sun on the opposite side. There was a figure shaking at the top, and a dozen huge ropes pulled a long suspension bridge suspended in the air. The suspension bridge hung between the cliffs.

Shaking slightly in the wind.

"That's...?" Shi Hao said in shock.

"The gate of the camp. If I guessed correctly, there is a hole dug in the cliff after the suspension bridge, and you can pass directly through the cliff." Fang Zian said.

Zhang Ruomei glanced at Fang Zian approvingly, nodded and said: "You guessed it right. But it is a natural cave, not a dug one. How can we have so many manpower to dig a cave? The mountain walls are as thick as a lifetime.

It can’t be dug out either.”

Fang Zian nodded and was filled with admiration in his heart. Regardless of whether the cave was excavated or natural, this layout can be said to be a dangerous place. The main camp is located in the opposite mountain. It is a work of art and is absolutely safe. If you want to attack this camp,

, that is more difficult than climbing to the sky.

While everyone was admiring themselves, Zhang Ruomei took out his whistle and blew it. After a while, someone on the opposite cliff looked over. Zhang Ruomei took out a small five-color flag from his waist and waved it. Soon after, he heard the creak of the machine shaft.

With a loud sound, the long and high suspension bridge slowly fell from the opposite cliff. A huge shadow enveloped the place where everyone was standing. The heavy and huge suspension bridge was lowered, and one end happened to be resting on the isolated mountain road.

On the top, it is embedded in the dug groove, which is exactly flush with the road surface. It connects the two ends of the canyon into a smooth road.

Looking along the eight or ninety-foot-long suspension bridge, a huge hole appeared in everyone's field of vision. There was indeed a hole on the mountain wall, and many people in the hole were looking towards this side with weapons, bows and arrows.
