"Let the second brother!" Feng Xiao shouted loudly.

"The second brother retreated!" Mu Dangjia also stopped and said, "The person who comes is a guest, don't be rude."

The blade reached a certain inch in front of Yuan Zheng, and Yuan Zheng's face remained unchanged and sat upright as firm as Mount Tai.

A strange look appeared on the face of Ren Er, he withdrew his knife and stood back with a cold snorted.

Yuan Zheng was still calm and did not retreat in his words. "The Mu family's courage is commendable, but I'm afraid even occupying Jiaodong is a fantasy."

The Mu Dangjia's face darkened, "The Fourth Master threatened Mu? Do you believe it or not, I will only have these people in my hands and I can occupy Dezhou in five days!"

Yuan Zheng raised his eyes and confronted him with tit-for-tat, "Damang Mountain is a barrier that separates Hengshui and Dezhou. There are secret roads in Damang Mountain that lead directly to Dezhou North. Mu's family has three thousand brothers in the mountain, plus tens of thousands of subordinates under Lord Feng. They travel day and night, and can reach Dezhou City in three days and three nights. If spies are sent into the city first, or there are already supporters in the city, they can occupy Dezhou in four days without five days."

After he said something, Mu Dangjia's eyes became tighter and tighter, and he looked at Yuan Zheng solemnly for the first time.

"Why did you know that we have three thousand brothers? How do you know that there is a secret way?"

Yuan Zheng did not answer and continued, "But Hengshui cannot leave people without leaving people. At least five thousand people must be left behind. Then, the troops such as sentry, communications, and service can be used, but only six thousand people can be used."

"Daliang is just weak, but it's not that there are no soldiers. If I were the commander of Daliang, Liaocheng and Jinan cities went north to support Dezhou, and stationed 20,000 troops on the border of Jizhou to directly take Hengshui. For Daliang, this is the best opportunity to get back Hengshui! If Hengshui is lost, you will become lonely soldiers again, leaving only the only way to fight."

"What should the Mu family do then?"

The Mu family snorted coldly, "Ignorance! Just rely on this secret path in the Great Python Mountain, we can overthrow Jizhou and come to help without knowing it."

Yuan Zheng sighed inwardly, "The head of the family thought this was a secret way?"

When Mu Dangjia heard this, his face changed instantly, "Who else knows?"

Yuan Zheng shook his head slowly, "Two years ago, Lin Jiuyuan was ordered to repaint Daliang military maps and send people to travel all over the country, especially military cities like Hengshui, with detailed maps. These maps are archived in the Privy Council, and this secret path that the Mu leader made was on that map."

For the first time, Mu Dangjia's eyes appeared in panic and said in a disgusting voice: "What General Lin painted?"

Yuan Zheng nodded, "That's right."

The Mu Dangjia quickly exchanged several glances with Ren Er and others, and was shocked to see them.

In Yuan Zheng's mouth, all their advantages no longer exist. Now, even the secret path they rely on can no longer become a weapon!

If even Texas cannot be conquered, they will be able to be bandits in this Dapyo Mountain for the rest of their lives!

Mu Dangjia's face was gloomy and he looked at Feng Xiao again.

Feng Xiao spread his hands, "Brother Mu, Feng has been persuaded by the Fourth Master. Why not follow the Fourth Master's words and live a secret life first and preserve his strength? If Daliang can have another Lin Jiuyuan?"

The Mu family snorted coldly, "So what if there is another General Lin? You're still dead at the hands of your own people!"

He turned to Yuan Zheng with a calm face, "Is the Fourth Master entrusted by the court?"

Yuan Zheng shook his head and looked sincere: "No, it's just something that someone Yuan asked. You are all the iron bones of the big beams, but now you are forced to fall into trouble. I really don't want you to go astray, lose your life in vain, and harm the innocent!"

The head of Mu clasped his fists at Yuan Zheng, "Mu should think about the Fourth Master's words carefully. No matter whether it is success or failure in the future, I will thank the Fourth Master for his kindness today."

He suddenly changed his voice and said heavily: "But for the sake of brothers, Fourth Master, please stay!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ren Er rushed over and pointed a knife at Yuan Zheng's neck.

Feng Xiao was shocked and stood up, "Brother Mu! Why is this?"

The Mu Dang family held his long beard with a strange look in his eyes, and stopped Feng Xiao: "The city lord doesn't know that this Fourth Master is worth 20,000 taels of silver! 20,000 taels! How much rice, grain and horses are enough for us to buy!"

"Didn't you send the Fourth Master back to reward 10,000 taels of silver? How come 20,000?" Feng Xiao was surprised.

Ren Er grinned, "Mr. Feng only knows one of them. In addition to the hanging list of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, there is another news in the underworld: take the life of the Fourth Master Yuan and reward 20,000 yuan."

Yuan Zheng was shocked and immediately understood. No wonder someone chased him closely behind the way. It turned out that he was so valuable!

"Escort down first." Mu Dangjia turned around and ordered.

Yuan Zheng raised his eyes, his black eyes were faint and boundless, and he slowly said, "Let's wait."

Yan Nan and Jindou sat bored in the side hall, with two guards at the door, and there was no one else in the room.

"Anan, are you really worried about the master?" Jindou was a little worried, "None of these people looked like thieves."

Yan Nan glanced at him, made a gesture of silence, and whispered: "It's a soldier."

Jindou was frightened, "How do you know?"

Yan Nan rolled her eyes: "Didn't Lord Feng say it? Look at this scene again, so disciplined, of course it's a soldier."

Jindou breathed a sigh of relief and scratched her head, "Hehe, when Lord Feng was talking, I almost fell asleep. It would be better if I weren't a real bandit."

Yan Nan shook her head, "It's hard to say, they've been talking for so long, and there's not even a person who greets and prepares dishes outside. If they really have to join the contract, it's time to prepare dinner for us. The soldiers are stronger than the bandits' minds, especially those who have made enemies with the Northern Barbarians and Daliang on the battlefield, which is even more difficult to convince and impress."

When Jindou heard this, she became even more uneasy. She stood up and walked around, slipping to the window from time to time, and looked out through the ripped window paper.

When I saw this, I was stunned.

"Anan Anan, come and have a look!" Jindou waved desperately.

Yan Nan came to the window strangely.

"Look, does that person look like Master Yu Liu we met at the inn? That little stutter?"

Yan Nan looked through the window and looked, it was true!

A thin and small figure, shrank its back as it walked.

How could he be here?

The guards along the way respected him very much!

Yan Nan immediately rushed to the door, jumped up and shouted, "Master Yu Liu!"

Yu Liu was about to go to Mu Dang's yard, but when he heard someone calling him, he was shocked. He looked up and saw Yan Nan and the golden beans waving at him by the door.

Yu Liu went over in surprise and saluted to the guard who stopped Yan Nan at the door, "Yes, it's me, friend, friend."

The guard was quite respectful to him and said, "The head of the country has an order. These two people cannot walk around at will. If the Sixth Master wants to reminisce about the past, he can enter the house."

Yu Liu hurried into the room, looked at Yan Nan and the others and said in surprise: "You, you..."

Yan Nan rushed to answer, "The Fourth Master Yuan wants to persuade the bandits here to be kind, how could you be here?"

Yu Liu opened his eyes wide, "Go to the good?"

Can this word be used like this?

He came back to his senses in surprise and replied, "We, meet, meet..."

Yan Nan asked again without waiting for Yu Liu to finish speaking, "You met a thief and were caught in the mountain?"

Yu Liu nodded quickly.

"Then why can you walk freely?"

Yu Liu tried his best to say: "They...yes, yes, good..."

Yan Nan's mind flashed. Since these people were soldiers, they wanted to know General Yu: "They knew that your father was General Yu, so they let you go!"

Yu Liu opened his eyes wide again and nodded quickly.

"Where are the rest of the Yu family?" Yan Nan asked again.

This time Yu Liu replied very concisely, "Closing it, get up."

Yan Nan understood. It seemed that these people had a lot of affection for General Yu. In this way, things would be much easier.
