Ren Ning and the other two did not go west immediately, but went to Jingang Village first.

"Two adults, you are back." The people came out one after another and greeted them warmly, "How is it outside the mountain?"

Lei Er smiled and talked about the situation outside.

Buzz~

Most of these people had no relatives, but when they heard that the court could not only divide the land but also the seeds, they were immediately in an uproar.

"Really or not?" Some people didn't believe it: "The officials have eaten our fields and are now vomiting them out? Is this a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken?"

"Believe it or not. Who are these two adults? Without them, we might have died long ago. Can you still lie to us?"

The others nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

"Let's go home." They shouted one by one, eager to go down the mountain.

"Wait a minute." Ren Ning laughed and pointed at the land developed around the village. "You have worked so hard to cultivate these lands. You don't want them anymore?"

Jingang Village can be spotted by batches of bandits, and the conditions are quite good. In addition to being easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are mountains and rivers. It is definitely a good place to open up and grow food.

"How about we stay?" Some people were really afraid of the government and couldn't help but be moved.

Ren Ning smiled and nodded: "Remember Niu Shusheng. You can go out to find him for some grain seeds, and then come back to live here."

Anyway, just don't let this village become a den of bandits again.

The two confessed some more things before going down the mountain.

With a light carriage and simple horses, the two of them headed west along the post road.

It didn't take long to arrive near the trapped dragon's nest, and the Dingxi soldiers who had been left behind happily jumped out of the dense forest.

"Two adults, you are back so soon!" The man stretched his neck and looked at the road: "Where are we, Qian Chang?"

Lei Er laughed and greeted him, "This trip is going well. Laigu County in the east will be calmed down soon. We have nothing to do, so let's come over and take a look."

"As for you Qian Zhang and the other brothers, they still have some matters to attend to and it will take some time before they can come back."

ah?

The soldier was a little dumbfounded.

There were only a few dozen of them guarding the long post road at their feet, and they felt somewhat guilty.

"What?" Lei Erxiao said, "Did the Xiliang people attack again?"

"Of course not." Xiaobing laughed.

If the Xiliang people had launched a massive attack, they would have sent people to Laigu to report the news.

"But the Xiliang people didn't give up. They sent some spies over the past two days to check the situation. We also had a few fights with them and injured several brothers," he said.

Ren Ning and Lei Er looked at each other, and they were not surprised.

Xueyue Yingxiang probably also got the news that Laigu County was about to be pacified, and he was under great pressure. Although I was extremely afraid of the unknown poisonous smoke, I still had to bite the bullet and head east.

Lei Er sneered: "People from Xiliang still dare to come? How brave. Let's go and avenge you now."

The two sides chatted for a few more words. Ren Ning and the others shouted, and continued westward on their mounts.

When we arrived at Quelong's Nest, the post road ahead was full of tree stumps and traps, large and small. The two of them abandoned the road and went up the mountain.

Zhui Feng and Ben Lei were both familiar with human nature, so they walked west along the ridge of the mountain without any instructions from their master.

Ren Ning used a telescope and golden fingers to check the red dots around him, and asked Lei Er to touch them and remove them one by one.

Soon Blood Moon Yingxiang in the west got the news.

"Say it again?" He gritted his teeth, "Our spies were wiped out again?"

"Didn't I fight Yun Chui several times in the past few days? Are you still fine?"

"Young Patriarch," the messenger shrank his neck, "I guess we came into contact with Yun Chui's newly trained scouts a few days ago, so we were evenly matched, and even had a chance of winning. Now..."

Now it should be their veterans who take action again, so our side is dead without a whole body.

well!

Xueyue Yingxiang sighed and waved his hand in annoyance, asking the others to retreat.

He looked up to the east.

Thick smoke was still rising on the post road ahead, as if the Sāras were baring their teeth and claws, waiting for them to come and seek their own death.

"Young Patriarch, what should we do?" The little guard who grew up together looked very ugly. "The Royal Court issued a death order, asking us to move eastward immediately."

"Dongjin, Dongjin!" Blood Moon Eagle Xiang was furious, "Go to hell with Dongjin!"

"The spies are going to kill some of them. We basically don't know what is going on ahead. If we continue to move eastward, what is the difference between that and death?"

"But the new supervisor said..."

"Hesitating," Xue Yue Yingxiang glared at the little guard, "If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have anything to say, let it go!"

"The supervisor said that Yun Chui's art of war is as follows: if you are ten, you will surround it, if you are five, you will attack it, and if you double it, you will divide it. The clan leader gave us some additional troops a few days ago."

"Now we have six times as many troops as the Yunchui people in front of us. The supervisors feel that they can swarm them and kill them to pieces."

Ha ha!

Blood Moon Yingxiang couldn't help but feel happy.

"He means to let us use Yun Chui people's military tactics to defeat Yun Chui people?"

"Besides, I don't want to see what kind of terrain this is. Let him come over and tell me how to swarm here?"

The little guard burst into tears and had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply.

Ren Ning and Lei Er stayed on the mountain west of Quelong's Nest for four or five days, and easily killed two groups of Xiliang spies.

Two days later, they reached the dense forest above the Blood Moon Tribe and saw that the enemies on the post road stopped again and hesitated before leaving.

Seven days later, the two of them stood on the dusty land of Dingxi County with their mounts in hand.

Looking around, it was all depression. Dingxi, which was originally desolate, is now even more deserted. It seems that even spring has avoided this land.

Ren Ning held up the binoculars and took a look, then chose an uninhabited direction, and headed straight for the Yankui Fortress with Lei Er.

At noon the next day, the two of them stopped at the same time while running.

In the small mountainous area in front of me, there were scattered stones. Although they looked messy and unremarkable, Ren Ning and the two recognized them at a glance.

This is the mark left by the Starfall Legion, which means that it is safe within a hundred miles and there is sufficient water two miles to the south.

Lei Er threw a few broad beans into his mouth: "Old Ren, are these left by the brother who built the windmill for communication?"

"No." Ren Ning shook his head, "This was left by General Guan's subordinates."

Since leaving the Yingshan camp, Guan Luping has been in charge of the general affairs of the blood camp behind the legion in his hometown of Xingluo. He has secretly sent people across the mountains and ridges to Dingxi County to support the fortress.

But from Xingluo Basin to Dingxi County, the mountains are high, the mountains are deep, the forests are dense, and the road is difficult to travel. Guan Luping had no choice but to reduce various urgently needed materials for the fortress from large to small, allowing the soldiers to carry them little by little.

These stones were left by the people who came before us to remind those who came after us.

Lei Er suddenly understood.

He is just a bodyguard. If Ren Ning didn't say anything, Lei Er wouldn't be qualified to know these things.

"Since General Guan has been sending people over for support, the fortress should be fine," he said.

Ren Ning shook his head: "Not good."

The road between Xingluo and Dingxi is really difficult.

Guan Luping has worked hard enough, but it is still a drop in the bucket.

The fortress was in short supply of a large number of epidemic doctors, medicines and food, and he was simply unable to solve the problem.

Lei Er turned over the medicinal materials and food on Ben Lei's back and frowned, "Then shall we go to the fortress?"

Ren Ning shook his head: "We can't help much, so we won't go."

"Intelligence shows that the Xiliang people invaded Dingxi from the north of the fortress. We first go around to the south of the fortress and then enter the grassland."

Lei Er naturally had no objection.

The two found a water source to feed their horses, ate some dry food themselves, and continued on their way.
