Early the next morning, Mu Qianyu put on a military uniform, with her daughter, Xiao Ruo and Di Yin behind her. She got up at dawn and waited in the lobby behind the mansion gate.
The soldiers gathered in front of the mansion one after another, but all of them looked a little panicked. Some were running while tying their belts, some lost their hats while running, and some even stuffed the last bite of buns into their mouths.
Mu Qianyu glanced over and found that the strength of these people was generally low. How low was she. In this immortal dynasty, she actually saw more than a dozen people below the warrior master level.
You must know that this is an immortal dynasty. What you breathe is rich spiritual energy, and the food you eat is immortal food nourished by spiritual energy. Anyone with some cultivation qualifications will not have this level of strength in his twenties.
She rubbed her brows and thought that she should wait a little longer. Those who came first might be able to make up the numbers. After all, it was not easy to recruit soldiers here.
Soldiers in silver armor quickly blocked the entrance to the government office. Mu Qianyu roughly counted more than two hundred people.
The next one was Lu Tisi. Tisi was a military general in the government, responsible for the military force in the government, with an official rank of sixth rank, the same rank as Wei Zhong.
Wei Zhong and Lu Yijiang also arrived late. They didn't mean to show off to Mu Qianyu, but they just didn't know how to explain this.
At this time, the three of them came in bravely, but when they came into contact with Mu Qianyu's eyes, they felt the cool breeze blowing on their necks, as if the head might not be theirs at any time.
"See Mr. Futai. I am a humble official. Please close the door to Mr. Futai. We have something to report."
Several people knelt down in the hall, and Lu Jian was the first to speak.
Mu Qianyu was usually very easy-going, so he immediately glanced at the yamen servant and signaled to close the door.
"Guys, who are you singing this morning? Don't you want to follow me to suppress the bandits?" Mu Qianyu asked jokingly.
Lu Jianyi gritted his teeth and said: "Master Futai, these two hundred people outside are all the soldiers of my Anping Mansion. Please atone for your sins."
"Huh?" Mu Qianyu raised her eyebrows slightly. It wasn't that she was angry, but that she really didn't understand.
"The Ministry of War records that our Anping Prefecture should have two thousand soldiers. The imperial court is sympathetic to the poor tax revenue of Anping Prefecture. Military expenses have always been provided by the imperial court based on this number. Now you are telling me that there are no soldiers?"
As a military general, Lu Jian was still bold. He said at this moment: "Master Futai, I know I was wrong, and I ask you to punish me."
"Oh, if you are free of charge, then the extra 1,800 people's annual salary will also go into your pockets." Mu Qianyu even couldn't sit still when he said this.
In fact, she should have thought that these people in Anping Prefecture would play such a trick. What could they do with so many soldiers when they were protected by bandits? After all, they still had too little experience in being an official.
Several people knocked their heads to the ground and did not dare to raise their heads.
After being exploited by Mu Qianyu, they were extremely dissatisfied, so they secretly took pity on Heifeng Village that night.
But got no reply.
Obviously, Black Wind Village would not dare to interfere with their affairs until the current Lord Futai died.
It was very obvious that they could only rely on Mu Qianyu's side and obey orders.
"So now you want me to take 200 low-strength soldiers to attack the Black Wind Mountain, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack?" Mu Qianyu asked angrily.
Several people were silent.
"You bastards who have nothing to do with their corpses, I will deal with you after the war is over." Mu Qianyu pointed at the three people on the ground and spoke harshly.
A few people raised their heads at this moment, and Inspector Lu asked: "Sir, do you still want to fight?"
"What if you don't fight? The first order I gave you when I took office was to suppress bandits. Do you want me to slap you in the face?"
"But how can we be the opponent of Black Wind Mountain..."
"Now that you know everything, you can become the prefect. You bastard, follow me." Mu Qianyu said angrily and walked straight towards the door of the mansion.
The yamen servant opened the yamen gate very wisely. Now they know the name of Anping Mansion very well. Everyone else is a wild man, only Mr. Futai is the real god.
At this moment, a large number of people have gathered in front of the mansion, looking at this from a distance, talking about how they will be beaten badly today.
After all, there is a huge disparity in strength and numbers. Apart from the beauty of the prefect, this army is simply useless.
Mu Qianyu stood in front of everyone, without smiling. His aura came out of his body, and there was a sudden silence below.
"Everyone, please follow me out of the city. Today, you must wipe out Heifeng Mountain in one fell swoop and restore true peace to our Anping Mansion."
Mu Qianyu said a word before riding on his horse without waiting for these people to reply.
Because she didn't expect these stragglers who didn't even have military discipline to say anything ambitious, she skipped this step.
Although the soldiers received the order last night, they still feel that they are living in a dream. Two hundred people are going to fight three thousand elite warriors?
This is simply going to die.
However, now that the situation has come to an end, no one of these people can retreat, because escaping before the battle will lead to death. It is better to wait until the war starts and think of a way.
Xiao Ruo hugged Xiao Ruo and mounted the horse, which surprised the people watching even more. Is this Futai master going to fight or surrender? Why is he still taking the child with him?
More than 200 people marched out of the city in a mighty way and quickly headed towards Black Wind Mountain. In the villages they passed along the way, the people thought they were here to collect taxes and fled.
But soon I learned that it was a misunderstanding, which made me even more puzzled. Why did the people from the government go in the direction of Heifeng Village? Is this relationship so open to the public?
Anping Prefecture has a vast land and long roads. Even though we got up early, it was already close to noon when we reached the foot of the mountain.
Mu Qianyu had looked at this place last time, and I have to say that bandits are very good at finding places. Black Wind Mountain has narrow mountain roads, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Moreover, the rocks are steep and steep. Even if you fly over them, they will be shot into a sieve by crossbow arrows.
The Heifeng Mountain at this moment is even more different than the previous two days. The entire mountain is shrouded in a transparent barrier.
Mu Qianyu casually picked up a leaf from the ground and pointed it toward the barrier that was as thin as a cicada's wings and could not be seen by ordinary people.
The leaves flew to the edge of the barrier and disappeared in an instant.
This is a large formation that looks like defense, but is actually an attack.
The accompanying officials and soldiers felt goosebumps on their backs when they saw this scene. Not to mention these bandits, they could not break through this barrier.
While Mu Qianyu was looking at it, Mo Feng, dressed in white, walked out of the mountainside. He didn't know if he was stimulated last time, but this time he didn't have a fan in his hand.
Mu Qianyu raised his head and met the turbulent eyes.
"Master Futai, today is already the fifth day. You are so slow." Mo Feng spoke mockingly.
The other bandits were the same, waving their knives and shouting and laughing loudly, as if they were prepared for any danger.
