The solar terms of Jingzhe are divided into three periods: the first period is when the peach blossoms bloom, the second period is when the barn cries, and the third period is when the eagle turns into a dove.
The people of Cangwu don't know the solar terms yet, but they know that in mid-spring, farming, fishing and hunting begin, and the domesticated animals begin to gain vitality. After slaughtering some animals, nominally to sacrifice their ancestors, but in fact to feast, those animals Policymakers and ordinary people would inevitably talk about the attack on Hongzhou.
If so many clans, tribes, and states attack, they will definitely win. Some people are even thinking, if Cangwu people help attack Hongzhou, how many slaves can be plundered?
There are never too many slaves. Some people have begun to dream of becoming masters, while others are claiming everywhere that this is the right decision.
"With slaves, slaves help us free our hands, they go to work and we can do what we like."
"I heard that the people of Hongzhou are very fierce. It seems that there are no slaves in their place, and they may not be willing to be slaves."
"How come there are no slaves? Do all their nobles work by themselves? Without slaves, how can they produce and live, how can they create superfluous things?"
In this atmosphere of doubt and confusion, the discussions among the people of Cangwu became more and more intense. They even imagined in their minds that place they had never seen before, that stupid and absurd land, a land without slaves?
Even the Central Plains is said to have slaves.
In other words, the slaves in Hongzhou just changed their names, or have they not developed to this stage yet?
This idea did not just come from one person, many people thought so, so some people started to laugh and said that the so-called Hongzhou military strength might be just something to brag about, but some people knew better and said that Hongzhou had defeated He killed a blood sacrifice tribe further south and defeated Sanmiao. This was also a real achievement.
Therefore, as soon as Sanmiao was brought up, it seemed that all the arguments were in contrast. Although Sanmiao was weak in daily life, he could not stand up to others' strong settings, and his own strength was indeed very high. In this way, it seemed that Sanmiao was regarded as a "soldier". "Strong or not" standard line.
Those who can beat Sanmiao are the strongest countries in the world, and those who cannot beat them are weak chickens.
Apart from this incident, there was another thing that made them a little excited. They had more to talk about. While fishing, they could hear people talking and pointing in a direction. There were some people with bows and arrows there.
Those are the legendary Heyi people.
Someone from Heyi came here, and Cuiyu, the leader of Cangwu, entertained him.
"I heard that the archer named Chu Xuan is a disciple of Pang Meng?"
A leader of Heyi came over in person. Sanmiao invited Heyi to join him because of his embarrassing behavior at Chongyong Pass. Because Heyi was good at making bows and arrows, Sanmiao hoped to use bows and arrows to fight bows and arrows and imitate the huge ballistae. However, He Yi thought that Hongzhou was too far away and there was no need for him to help Sanmiao. However, it was the actions of Cangwu people to encircle and suppress Baolin that caught their attention.
Pang Meng, this is a name that makes He Yi very angry. More than seven years ago, he came to Dayue, which is the Wudang Mountain area, and threatened to kill He Yi's leader "He". This was a man who defeated many local people. Although the final duel between the archer masters was unsuccessful because Pang Meng left for unknown reasons, there were rumors among the tribe that it was the reputation of "harmony" that scared Pang Meng away.
But this is not considered a shameful thing, because among the archers of the Heyi people, none of them can compete with Pang Meng, and they almost all fail before they even draw their bows.
This kind of archery without shooting also frightened the people of Heyi. Chu Xuan, whom the people of Cangwu were encircling and suppressing, was a disciple of Pang Meng. This made them very angry and they immediately dispatched men from Dayue. After crossing the river, we arrived at Dongting, from which we entered the main waterway of Xiangshui River and then arrived at Cangwu Min's Place.
"Back then, Pang Meng humiliated us. This was a great shame. Now his disciples are causing trouble here. We can help you destroy him. If he has been killed, we hope that his body and head can be handed over to us. We will definitely be here." There is compensation.”
Of course, Cang Wumin was overjoyed to have He Yi's help. He made an oath on the spot, saying that he would never break his promise.

The water flow was turbulent. When night fell, a fleet of boats appeared on the Xiang River. The boats were hidden at the mouth of a water vein. They divided their work and began to land.
People like Chu Yan and others are extremely familiar with the terrain of this land. In the Cangwu Wilderness, you can see a structure similar to a city wall from a distance. They were known as a "state" in ancient times, although in terms of military force Not as good as the Sanmiao and Ba people, but they already have all the conditions needed for a slave city-state.
Ruanzai had already prepared Gugu and Jiaojiao in his pocket, and the two chicks poked their heads out, looking serious.
Isn't it just burning the granary? Private Gugu has done it several times. It's very simple.
Chu Fang divided some people to follow Ruan Zai, Chu Fang volunteered to be among them, and Nei Guike also lined up to come to Chu Fang. His eyes had been staring at Ruan Zai's copper pipe vaguely. However, he came all the way and almost had to wait. Crazy.
These people in Yuzai actually don't sleep or rest!
He originally wanted to wait until Juan Zai and the others were asleep and find an opportunity to steal the weapon. However, Juan Zai and the others were muttering on the boat and chatting like this for two and a half days without closing their eyes!
Kao's eyes were densely filled with bloodshot eyes. He hadn't slept for two days and two nights, and he was highly concentrated and nervous, but he just couldn't find the opportunity to make a move.
"Listen up... We only have one chance to go in this time. If we don't come here with the determination to die, there are still boats to go back and we can leave."
Chu Fang began to convey orders to many escaped slaves, and the escaped slaves laughed softly, with madness in their eyes.
Everyone here has red eyes.
The targets of revenge are of course the leaders of the Cangwu people. They are big figures among the slave owners. Killing them will be considered a successful rescue. A large number of slaves can be released, and the Cangwu people will be leaderless.
Chu Xuan said that he would intercept and kill the leaders alone, especially his enemy.
He hoped that Yu Zai could bring that weapon to support him. He had a crossbow in his arms, thinking that even a great wizard would be dead if he was hit by an arrow in his temple within three steps.
Life is inherently fragile, and something that seems powerful may disappear in the blink of an eye.
The water of Canglang will turn into bright red this night.
