On this day, Ji Yu and the others were on their way, wanting to settle down in the town ahead before sunset, when they heard the sound of fighting coming from far away.

Ji Yu asked Tong Jing Yuanzhuang girl to guard the goods, and he took Lao Hei and a few bodyguards to grope forward.

Without understanding the situation ahead, they dare not venture forward.

When he got closer, he saw that the front of the mouth was crowded with people, and it turned out to be a group of disheveled bandits fighting with armored soldiers.

Ji Yu was taken aback for a moment.

What is the situation?

He also saw a large group of mules and horses with goods parked nearby, and he immediately reacted.

Is this bandit who robbed and became a soldier?Grab food?

Sure enough, the bearded officer yelled while hacking and killing: "You thieves, now that foreign enemies are present, not only do you not serve the country, but you even rob food and grass. Is it a man?"

Seeing that the number of soldiers was outnumbered, Ji Yu made a decisive decision and ordered: "Shoot!"

This could be food for the fourth brother Xiao Wu, how could the bandits steal it?

They are all masters here, and they used crossbow arrows, and the arrows "swished" to kill them, and immediately shot the bandits to the point of crying and howling.

The situation quickly reversed, and the bandits gradually lost ground in terms of numbers and combat power.

Seeing that they were invincible, the bandits ran away in a swarm.

The bearded officer cupped his hands in Ji Yu's direction and said, "I don't know which number's brother?"

Does this mean they are also soldiers?

Ji Yu turned his head to look at Lao Hei beside him.

Old Hei understood, and shouted: "I'm just a peddler going north, and I just draw my sword to help when we see injustice."

But the bearded officer didn't believe this and insisted on them showing up.

Not wanting to be misunderstood by the soldiers, Ji Yu had no choice but to show up with Lao Hei and others.

Seeing that they were all neatly dressed and their eyes were upright, the officer believed it, and thanked them again.

Ji Yu glanced at the food and grass lying on the ground, at the dejected soldiers, and then at the bearded officer.

Different from those deserters with vicious eyes, this officer is full of awe-inspiring righteousness, but he has the posture of Captain Jiang.

Immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at Old Hei again.

Old Hei clasped his hands and said, "Excuse me, Mr. Jun, are you going to Danzhou?"

The bearded officer nodded and said, "I'm going to Danzhou to deliver food. I never thought that I would meet bandits..."

Lao Hei asked again: "I'm going to Danzhou, are there bandits on the way?"

The officer sighed and nodded again: "Ergouzi Mountain still has a den of thieves, it's not easy!"

Old Hei smiled and said, "I don't know... can we go together? In the current situation, it's safer to go together than to go alone..."

The bearded officer hesitated at the beginning, but when he saw Ji Yu's long list of goods, he was relieved and waved his hand: "Then let's go together!"

These satin tea leaves are much more valuable than food, so they shouldn't be bandits with ulterior motives.

It can be seen that this caravan is not easy to come here without incident.

And they need help too...

Because the bandits delayed their time, before sunset, they didn't arrive at the town, so they could only find a place near the official road to camp and rest.

Tong Jingyuan approached the bearded officer and asked him about the situation in Danzhou.

"Master Jun, how is Danzhou now?"

The bearded officer sighed, and said angrily: "Baozhou, the big city in the north of Danzhou, was besieged. It wouldn't last for a few days. The Yan army's 100,000 cavalry attacked all the way south from Daming Mansion. No matter how strong the city is,It will definitely be captured in less than a day or two. I thought that Baozhou would not be able to defend, and Danzhou would definitely fall. I never thought that the third prince would come with the Huaishan army from the south, and he has been struggling until now. You saidThe soldiers on the front line have had such a hard time, those in the rear... are deserters and bandits, they are ashamed of themselves!"

Ji Yutong, Miss Jing Yuanzhuang and the three of them looked at each other.

There is both joy and fear in my heart.

As expected, the An family brothers were on the front line.But Yan Jun besieged the city, how long can they last?

The bearded officer looked at their goods again, shook his head and said, "If you had these goods before, they would have sold for a lot of money, but now all the rich people in the north have run away, who will buy them?"

"It would be fine if it was food and grass. Baozhou... No, the whole Danzhou can't get much food. I don't know how long Baozhou can last?"

Tong Jingyuan explained with a smile: "The tea is only a small part, and most of it is medicinal materials and cotton cloth. To be honest, we are all family members of the Huaishan Army. They killed enemies for the country. How can we watch them suffer from cold?"

As soon as his words fell, the bearded officer immediately stood in awe, cupped his hands and said, "It's actually a family member of the Huaishan Army, I'm sorry, I admire you!"

Tong Jingyuan seemed to enjoy the word "family" very much, and chatted with the bearded officer while eating barbecue.

Miss Zhuang handed the roasted chicken legs to Ji Yu: "Eat it quickly!"

I don't know if it's because miss Zi Yan too much, Brother Yu looks very bad these days.

Not only does he look bad, but his appetite is also bad.

Always eat neither this nor that.

Sure enough, when he saw the burnt black and greasy chicken legs, Ji Yu's stomach suddenly felt nauseated.

He quickly covered his mouth and waved his hands: "I don't want to eat, take it away."

"Brother Yu..." Miss Zhuang was anxious, and was about to ask Ji Yu what's the matter, but suddenly remembered that there are still soldiers here, so she quickly changed her words: "Ji Yu, what's the matter with you?"

Ji Yu shook his head and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel like I have no appetite, and it's really disgusting. Maybe I'm tired, just lie down and it will be fine."

Miss Zhuang helped him to lie down: "Then you have a good rest, you will arrive in Baozhou in a few days, and you will be able to see Zi Yan."

Ji Yu nodded.

Yes!In a few days, will see fourth brother.

They didn't think much about it, but the Zeng family's husband not far away looked at them with a thoughtful expression.

Walking with the officers and soldiers transporting food, the subsequent journey was much easier than before.

After all, there are very few people who dare to rob soldiers.

But the further north you go, the bad news comes one after another.

What about how heroic the Yan army's iron cavalry is, and why Baozhou has run out of ammunition and food and will not be able to hold on.

Ji Yu was already in a bad mood, but he happened to be robbed again.

Although still the same as before, the bandits still returned without success, but Ji Yu was so angry that he asked Chief Zeng to arrest a small bandit for interrogation.

It was learned that this group of people belonged to Ergouzi's den of thieves.

This is a failure, grab it again?

Ji Yu said angrily: "They are too daring."

He repeatedly robbed the grain transport army.

The bearded officer shook his head and said, "There is no way. Before there was no war, the Yamen had nothing to do with them. Now that the situation is chaotic, no one can control them."

Ji Yu suddenly had a thought: "Since they are so powerful and have robbed so many people, there must be plenty of food and grass in the den of thieves, right?"

Tong Jingyuan suddenly had a bad premonition, and immediately asked vigilantly, "What are you going to do?"

Ji Yu's eyes darkened: "Down Ergouzi Mountain, grab the food and grass, and send it to Baozhou."

The bearded officer stared at him dumbfounded: "Can a few of us conquer Ergouzi Mountain?"

Ji Yu sighed: "If we don't fight, how long will our food and grass last in Baozhou?"

His words stunned the bearded officer.

This is true, the 80,000 soldiers in Baozhou, they have enough food and grass for at most three days.

But what about after three days?

Miss Zhuang, who had been holding back her words all this time, couldn't help it any longer: "Jingyuan, you have to trust Ji Yu, if he says you can win, you will be able to win."

As soon as she finished speaking, the bearded officer stared at her dumbfounded: "Are you a girl?"

Before, thought it was just a handsome man, but when heard this voice, knew it was a girl...

Tong Jingyuan quickly stood in front of Miss Zhuang: "We are family members, so it's normal."

The bearded officer looked at Tong Jingyuan and Ji Yu again.

What about these two?It can't be brother, right?

She looks very handsome, but there are no pregnancy moles...

Of course there was no pregnancy mole, this time Ji Yu not only smeared his face, but also tied a cloth scarf on his forehead, just to cover the pregnancy mole.

Now it's winter, it's freezing cold, and there are all kinds of clothes.

There was no doubt along the way.

The bearded officer put away the surprise on his face, and whispered: "It's better for this girl to talk less in the future. After all, this soldier..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but Ji Yu and the others understood what it meant.

It's been a long time since the soldier has seen the girl and brother, I'm afraid he will lose control and do something bad...

Tong Jingyuan thanked: "Thank you for reminding me."

Don't mention Miss Zhuang's matter, but Ji Yu still wants to beat the bandits in Ergouzi Mountain: "If we don't beat them, they will beat us."

Seeing that the bearded officer was still shaking his head, Ji Yu said again: "You can watch us fight from the sidelines first. If you think it is possible to fight, you can fight again."

The bearded officer still hesitated.

How could Ergouzi Mountain be so easy to fight?Not to mention that it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but that there are thousands of bandits there.And the leader's martial arts are so strong that he is good at meteor hammers.

There are only two hundred people on their side, not to mention that they will lose, but they can't afford to delay. If they miss the deadline, they will be beheaded.

But at night, seeing Ji Yu and the others pushing a few small carts to Ergouzi Mountain, he couldn't bear it again, and led a group of strong soldiers to follow.

A few miles away from Ergouzi Mountain, Ji Yu and the others stopped, rustling and clanging, and then suddenly there was a burst of fire and a bang.

A moment later, Ergouzi Mountain in the distance also exploded, and flames shot into the sky.

Then, it kept blazing and blaring.

Ergouzi Mountain suddenly became a volcano.

What... what happened?

When the bearded officer recovered from the shock, Ji Yu and the others had already rushed towards the mountain.

The bearded officer was also decisive. Seeing that Ji Yu and the others had such a magical weapon, he stopped hesitating and led his men, "Come on!"

In fact, they don't need to do anything at all.

When they rushed to Ergouzi Mountain, there was not a single bandit along the way.

The bandit had long been scared out of his wits by the sound of artillery shells falling from the sky, and was so dizzy that he ran away.

Ji Yu didn't just fire cannons indiscriminately.

He had carefully interrogated the captives, found out the topography of Ergouzi Mountain and the distribution of bandits, and even made a topographic map, which took him a long time to study before dispatching.
