The Daze Mountains are located in the northern part of Pingdu. The mountains are undulating and undulating, showing a high north and low south. There are more than 2,000 mountains. They are the birthplace of rivers in Pingdu. They are named after "the mountains are surrounded by springs and the mountains are gathered into the Daze".

Huluyan is located in the southwest of the Daze Mountains, with an altitude of 654 meters. The mountain is high and steep. The southeast side of the peak is close to Taohuajian, the northeast side is close to Daguding, and the southwest side is close to Mozhu Mountain, which is considered to be a relatively steep mountain around.

There are many farmers gathered in Huluyan and strong guard power. Therefore, they are known as the four major peaks in the southeast of Daze Mountain, along with bandit forces such as Daguding, Mozhu Mountain, and Jizhuling.

The main growth of coniferous vegetation such as black pine, red pine, larch, etc. is on Huluyan Mountain. Wild peach trees, pear trees, chestnut trees and tea trees are relatively common.

When spring comes, the streams in the deep valleys in the mountains are gurgling, and streams in the mountains converge together to form a larger stream. The clear springs collide with the rocks in the stream, splashing small splashes of water from time to time, splashing beads and jade, and pouring into the deep valley pond all the way.

Mountain azaleas and forsythia bloom in competition. Yellow forsythia flowers and purple azaleas bloom in the forests among the mountains, either in dangerous rocks or cliffs, or stand upright on the peaks and cliffs. Some are raised their heads like cranes, and some are straightened by the ground like branches like dragons. They are in various shapes and are extremely attractive. They are really fascinating.

Wild shepherd's purse, tiger-toothed vegetables, and bracken are everywhere in the mountains. It is also not uncommon for hares, roe deer, pheasant, and wild ducks in the ponds between the mountains.

The farmers on the mountain often say, "After ten years of severe drought, the Huluyan people will not starve to death."

During the autumn harvest season, various wild fruit trees are full of fruits of all sizes, which is very attractive. The people of the mountain village will go up the mountain to pick them and eat them, and can also be used to make various fruit wines.

Scutellaria baicalensis, Bupleurum, Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum, and Chuanshanlong are all over the valley forest. It can be said that the entire Daze Mountains are a natural treasure house.

Feng Jian followed Hu Dadao and others into Huluyan Village Gate and saw that the large hillsides around the village gate had been reclaimed into fields. From a distance, the slopes were clearly hierarchical, which looked like terraced fields in later generations.

At this time, the farmers in the fields were sowing winter wheat in the fields under the scorching sun.

Feng Jian couldn't help but ask Hu Dadao walking in front: "Brother Hu, almost all the terraces around him are visible. Could it be that they are all reclaimed by the people of the villages?"

Hu Dadao laughed: "Haha! The terraced fields, watching the cultivated fields rise layer by layer, one by one, aren't they like ladders? Brother Wang said this appropriately! Yes, they were all cultivated by the Huluyan Village households one by one."

The guards following behind him also cheered: "Yes, the fields we reclaimed in Huluyan will be called terraces in the future!"

Feng Jian touched his chin and thought to himself that the fields reclaimed on the slopes in later generations were called terraces. Hu Dadao, such a bandit, had no knowledge, so why bother?

Hu Dadao walked and said, "Feng Jian, you wake up the Mochi Tiger, the thief head doesn't seem to want to give up. If there weren't more brothers from the counterfeit village than Mochi Tiger, we might have been bad. Now, I'm really scared. If the thief head knew that he would become a disabled person in the future, he would probably have lost his life and would not let us go. Haha! I'm happy to think about it."

Feng Jian said lightly: "The physical disability is still good. Although the mochi tiger is awake now, the poisoning incident is too long. It is still a matter of whether it can survive in the future."

Hu Dadao was happy to see: "Really! Haha, Feng Jian, why didn't you say it earlier? You deserve it! Once the disaster of the Mochi Tiger is killed, the Mochi Mountain bandits will be in chaos!"

Everyone was joking and heading to Huluyan Village. It took about a quarter of an hour before they arrived at the village where the Huluyan Village residents lived.

Hu Dadao pointed to the gentle hillside covered with rows of wooden houses and said, "These wooden houses are where the villagers of the village live. The most deficient thing on the mountain is wood. You new people who go up the mountain will also build wooden houses to live in the future."

He turned his hand to a separate courtyard with two fronts and backs on the gentle slope on the east side, saying, "This courtyard is where Commander Xu Da, Huluyan, works and lives. I will take you to see Commander Xu Da later."

Feng Jian nodded quickly.

In front of the house is a huge square, with neat bluestone slabs on the ground on the east side of the square, accounting for about one-third of the entire square.

There were some training objects such as stone locks scattered on the ground, and a weapon stand was placed not far away, with only some wooden sticks on the stand. This seemed to be the place where the escorts practiced their martial arts.

Sure enough, Hu Dadao pointed here and introduced: "This seems to be the place where the escorts practice martial arts. The escorts lack weapons and weapons. The escorts can only practice with wooden sticks on weekdays, and the stone locks on the ground are used to exercise their physical strength."

Feng Jian nodded, and pointed to the west and south sides of the square and said, "Look at the square full of wheat and millet, the crops have been harvested well this year! Look at the donkeys over there, pulling the milled noodles and never stopping, and the women who packed the flour are almost dough-like!"

Hu Dadao laughed and said, "You kid is really good at saying that a few people look like faces from a distance. Huluyan is also a relatively large force. The villagers in the village have reclaimed a lot of wasteland. The wheat harvest this summer is good. The wheat and millet in the square are all the grains paid by the villagers in the village."

The young and old who arrived in Huluyan in advance were temporarily placed in the southeast corner of the square. Hu Dadao ordered the guards around him to go back to rest, and he and Feng Jian came to the place where the young and old stayed.

Hu Dadao walked to everyone and said loudly: "All neighbors have just arrived at the mountain village and are not familiar with the rules of the mountain village. Don't walk around for the time being to avoid causing trouble. Soon, everyone will arrange their residence and reclaim wasteland to let the neighbors live a normal life."

These people are honest farmers. They just experienced the terrifying scene of Shuangfeng Valley. They were all trembling and would stop honestly without Hu Dadao's instructions.

After reminding all the neighbors, Hu Dadao pointed to the courtyard and said, "Person Feng, follow me to see Commander Xu. You don't have to be cautious when you see Commander. We can return to the parcel smoothly, thanks to you. Brother, I will report to Commander Xu truthfully. Commander Xu will definitely not treat you badly."

Feng Jian followed Hu Dadao and kept nodding, feeling that Hu Dadao treated him sincerely.

While walking, Hu Dadao introduced some people and affairs of Huluyan to Feng Jian, and from time to time he told him to pay attention to what to do after seeing Commander Xu, and instructed Feng Jian to have a general understanding of Huluyan.

When the two of them arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Hu Dadao laughed and greeted the guards in front of the gate: "Brother Xu, please report it. Old Hu and his brother Feng Jian asked for the Grand Commander."

The gatekeeper named Xu nodded to Hu Dadao, then glanced at Feng Jian lightly. Just as he was about to go in and report, he heard a heavy voice coming from the yard: "Xu Yannian, please come in, what are the rules for the village households to do?"

Hu Dadao quickly agreed, blinked at the guard and said, "Please trouble Brother Xu!" Then he led Feng Jian into the courtyard.

Feng Jian followed suit and bowed to the company's follower, saying, "Disturbating Brother Xu."

The personal follower named Xu did not speak, and waved his hand to signal Feng to go in quickly.

Soon Hu Dadao led Feng Jian through the courtyard and into the office room of Commander Huluyan. The room was large and could accommodate dozens of people to discuss matters at the same time.

In the middle of the room was a table case. On the table was a red-faced Guan Gong holding a big knife, the scent of smoke was wafting in the room. On the left side of the room was an Eight Immortals table, with a Taishi chair on each side, and a dozen wooden chairs without armrests were placed on the right. This incongruous decoration made Feng Jian, who had first entered, feel awkward, and felt that Guan Gong was the owner of the house.

As the commander of Huluyan, Xu Ma Gang was sitting at the Eight Immortals table at this time, staring at the two people walking into the room, with no expression on his dark faces.

Hu Dadao and Feng Jian stepped forward and knelt down a few steps: "I have met the commander." Feng Jian followed and said, "The villain Feng Jian met the commander!"

After the two met and showed their salutes, Xu Mabang slowly spoke: "Old Hu, don't be too polite to you, get up! This young man is Feng Jian, it's not bad!"

Before Feng Jian's answer, Xu Ma Gang's eyes turned to Hu Dadao: "This time, the people from the villages at the foot of the mountain were led up the mountain and were attacked by bandits in the Machi Mountain, causing many casualties. This commander will not give up. You have a few guards who can safely bring the people back to the mountain village and make great contributions to Huluyan. This commander will not treat you badly. Look at your blood, are you also injured? It doesn't matter?"

Hu Dadao quickly said, "It doesn't matter, the skin is thick and fleshy. A little bit of skin and flesh will recover soon. Hehe, this time he was able to bring more than 400 farmers back to the village. Thanks to Feng Jian's brothers, he triggered the grinding tiger to fight him, and took the opportunity to shoot the grinding tiger with a hidden weapon. He threatened to treat the grinding tiger to get more than 400 young and old out of danger and reach Huluyan. The first achievement this time should be the Feng Jian's brothers."

"Oh, it's actually like this." Xu Ma Gang had a little curiosity on his dark face. He turned his face and looked at Feng Jian carefully. Seeing that Feng Jian's face was young, he was very calm. Facing his somewhat oppressive gaze, he was not as embarrassed or shy as an ordinary farmer boy.

Xu Ma Gang suddenly felt a little fond of the boy who dared to look him in front of him. He said in a direct tone: "Not bad! Boy, you call him Feng Jian, right? Tell me where you are from."

Feng Jian quickly bowed and said without any rushing voice: "Report to the commander, the villain Feng Jian is from Guanxizhuang 30 miles southwest of Pingdu City. He and his mother went to Huluyan."

Xu Ma Gang nodded and said, "Guanxizhuang is a big village. When I was young, my commander pushed the manure water with a wheelbarrow in the village. How many people are you going up the mountain this time?"

Feng Jian replied in contemplation: "There are more than twenty people, but the villain doesn't know the specific number."

Xu Ma Gang nodded and said, "Tell me about your battle with Mochi Tiger."

Feng Jian swallowed, recalling the war in his mind that happened in the valley, and describing the passing of the battlefield to Xu Ma Gang in detail.

Xu Mabang heard that from then on, the grinding tiger would probably be bedridden, and even died, and the dark bottom of the pot finally became colorful.

He laughed: "Okay, okay, the Moji Tiger fell down, and the Moji Mountain will lose its leader. This is a good opportunity for me, Huluyan. Well, this time it is indeed Feng Jian's first achievement." As he said that, he looked at Feng Jian with praise.

He immediately turned his eyes to Hu Dadao and said, "Old Hu, this time you not only brought back a lot of people, but also found a heroic young man like Feng Jian for me Huluyan. He made great contributions. This commander decided to organize Wu Shu and Ji Shu into the Fifth Corps, and you, Hu Dadao, will serve as the leader of the Fifth Corps."

Hu Dadao understood after a little thought. Commander Xu was preparing to turn Feng Jian's newly settled people into a new outpost - Ji Shu, and handed him over to his jurisdiction together with the Wu Shu, who was originally under his jurisdiction. In this way, he would be on par with the other four leaders of the parody. He hurriedly knelt down and saluted, thanking the commander for his promotion.

Xu Mabang waved his hand and told Hu Dadao not to be too polite. He turned his eyes to Feng Jian and said, "Feng Jian, are you willing to join me Huluyan?"

Feng Jian was a little worried and hurriedly said, "The villain is willing."

Xu Mabang said directly: "Okay, since you are willing to join Huluyan, that's fine. This commander decided to organize your group of more than 400 farmers into a new Huluyan outpost - Jishou, and you Feng Jian will be the small flag of Jishou."

Feng Jian flipped his eyelids and his brows were frowning like bitter gourd. This is too irritating! What's the matter with this Huluyan? It's a small flag and a leader, just like the decorations of this room.

According to the Ming Dynasty military system, it was divided into military garrisons and military garrisons. The official positions of military garrisons were small flags, general flags, hundreds of households, thousand households, guard commanders, commanders, etc. The official positions of military garrisons were the chief, captain, sentry officer, chief general, thousand general, guards, chief officer, guerrilla officer, guerrilla general, deputy general, general, etc.

The commander of Huluyan in front of him obviously confuses the two military systems of the Ming army. Even if it is conflated, it doesn't matter. The barracks' sentry officer correspond to the hundreds of garrison households, but this one calls the sentry officer a small flag, which is ridiculous.

I was so lucky that I was entrusted with an important task as soon as I went up the mountain!

Feng Jian changed his mind and hurriedly knelt down on the ground to thank Xu Ma Gang for his promotion. He kept complaining in his heart that it seemed that farmers also need to be educated!

Xu Mabang and Hu Dadao looked at each other and laughed almost at the same time.

Xu Mabang stopped first and smiled, and helped Feng Jian up with his hands and said, "It turns out that your face will also change color. Do you think the settings of counterfeits are inappropriate?"

Seeing Feng Jian blushing, he continued, "We farmers do not have the rules of the government, and act more casually. The outposts on the mountain were initially arranged randomly, but after rectification, the current settings were formed. This is the rule of our copycat, and habits became natural."

Then he said to Hu Dadao: "Old Hu, please give Feng a detailed explanation later. In addition, you will place Ji Shi next to Wu Shi Shi Shi. The two posts are adjacent to each other. If you have any questions, you will take care of them. I will help them build a residence in the next few days."

Hu Dadao said: "Don't worry, the commander, my subordinates will do their best to make arrangements."

Xu Mabang nodded and said to Feng Jian: "This commander is a cheerful person and also likes to deal with cheerful people. In the past, everyone was a farmer and had no way out and settled in a mountain village. The rules outside the mountain are not suitable for us. Therefore, Huluyan has formulated its own rules. All those who join in must abide by the rules here. This is Huluyan, which has thousands of farmers, because it is not under the jurisdiction of the government and will not be exploited and bullied by gentry. This commander hopes that you newly settled people will adapt to life on the mountain as soon as possible and dissolve into the whole of Huluyan as soon as possible!"

The meaning of Xu Mabang's words is very clear. The rules of Huluyan are the rules of his great commander. He must follow the rules of others and adapt to them when establishing them.

Feng Jian hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you for your love! The villain must follow the rules of Huluyan and lead his whistle to completely integrate into the Huluyan group, but..."

Seeing that Feng Jian was respectful and decent, Xu Ma Bang knew that he was a person who knew the rules, so he looked at Feng Jian more kindly. "Well, the commander of this grand commander just said that he would like to date a cheerful person, what do you have to say?"

Feng Jian bowed to Xu Ma Gang and said, "It's just that the villain just arrived on the mountain and was not familiar with everything. Commander Meng Da promoted him to a small flag and did not understand many rules of the copycat. If there is any violation in the future, please ask the Commander to forgive me."

Xu Mabang laughed and looked at Feng Jian with a kind look, saying, "What's this? You guys have a lot of thoughts. Don't worry, if you have any problems that cannot be solved on the mountain in the future, you can come to this commander directly, or ask the leader Hu for help. In short, if you have something to do, you can support you, haha!"

"Ah, it's great! Thank you, Commander Hu, for your subordinates, you must follow our rules, obey the orders of Commander Hu and Commander Hu, and lead your posts to integrate into Huluyan as soon as possible." Feng Jian flattered the mountain.

Xu Ma Gang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, this commander of this university will see your future performance."
Chapter completed!
