Yizhou.

In front of the main gate of Gujiazhai Village.

Only two people were greeted.

One is a middle-aged man with a strong build, and the other is a middle-aged woman who still has charm.

They were all dressed in the most traditional costumes of the ancient family.

After all, the middle-aged man Gu Fengzhang is the patriarch of the Gu family. When he meets outsiders, it is not appropriate for him to wear a uniform.

"I have seen the commander-in-chief."

It is the ancient custom to bow with hands raised.

In terms of official positions, the Gu family had received official positions from the imperial court, but they were not as high as Ziyan's.

Gu Fengshang's gesture is also a clear statement that the Gu family still obeys the orders of the Da Qi imperial court and is a part of the imperial court.

As for the resentment of the Gu family, it was only directed at the governor Wan Yiren and his group. It did not involve other people, and it would not spread to the entire court.

"Chief Gu, let's go in and talk."

Zi Yan jumped off the mule cart, exchanged a few words with Gu Feng Shang, and then followed Gu Feng Shang into the village.

The main gate of Gujiazhai looks very dangerous from the outside.

But after entering, not walking for a while, it suddenly became clear, and I could clearly see that there was a large flat land in front of me, with many wooden houses of various forms standing in an orderly manner.

Many indigenous people from the ancient family poked their heads out of the house and looked at Zi Yan and his group curiously.

They haven't seen anyone from outside for a long time.

Especially those indigenous children, they are more curious about the outside world than adults.

Gu Fengshang led Zi Yan and his group into a courtyard quickly.

The courtyard is kept very clean.

After everyone else had settled down, Gu Fengshang chose a clean room and talked to Zi Yan face to face.

"Sir, Gujiazhai is about to be unable to support itself."

Gu Fengshang said with a grimace.

Zi Yan was slightly startled.

This Gu Fengfeng seems to be a decent person, but why does he start complaining as soon as he meets him?

"I think Gujiazhai is impregnable, even with 30,000 or 40,000 soldiers, we may not be able to attack it."

Zi Yan said softly.

"Sir, you are joking. It is true that the main stronghold of Gujiazhai is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but everything has a limit. Gujiazhai can only block the attack of two or three thousand people at most. If there are more, the copycat village will definitely not be able to withstand it...

"

"Besides, I haven't considered the factor of being a martial arts master."

"If there are martial arts masters in the attacking team, then we don't need two to three thousand people, but only three to two hundred soldiers to defeat Gujiazhai."

Gu Fengshang said with a wry smile.

"If Ren, Yang Huchen wouldn't dare to send thousands of people to attack. He doesn't have the guts."

Purple smoke.

"He doesn't dare to attack the main stronghold of Gujiazhai. After all, we are also awarded by the imperial court. But he doesn't dare to attack directly. He has the courage to intercept and kill our people outside, and he is very brave."

Ancient fashion.

"How did Gujiazhai survive so many years ago?"

Zi Yan said doubtfully.

"It wasn't that frequent in the past. There were only a lot of people who could do it three or five times a year. But recently, Wan Yiren has become a little crazy. He sent troops to block the mountain pass. We can't get salt, medicine, food and other supplies from the outside.

, we can only rely on our previous accumulation and work hard to support it.”

"If things continue like this, when all the accumulated supplies are used up, we will starve to death if we are not killed by Wan Yiren." Gu Fengshang said helplessly.

"On the way up the mountain, I didn't encounter any interceptions..." Zi Yan said.

"Maybe he didn't come on purpose. Who knows what bad ideas he was thinking." Gu Fengshang sighed.

"If you are short of any urgent supplies, make a list for me and I will help you raise them later."

"As for Wan Yiren, do you have any concrete evidence that he sent troops to intercept and kill the ancient tribesmen?"

Zi Yan asked.

"No, every time they pretend to be bandits to intercept and kill them. We once dispatched hundreds of people, but we didn't stop them."

Ancient fashion.

“Can’t hundreds of people stop me?”

Zi Yan said in surprise.

The ancient people are just a part of the indigenous people. They can mobilize hundreds of capable guards, which is already their best effort.

If hundreds of people can't stop him, there's really nothing he can do.

"Yes, we sent out hundreds of people, and they also increased their numbers. They also came with hundreds of people. We are all powerful in martial arts. Even our ancient tribesmen's weapons are incomplete, so we are no match for them."

Ancient fashion.

"They still dare to wear armor? It is a crime to hide armor among the people. How dare Yang Huchen let people wear armor openly? The styles of Daqi's official armor are all fixed. Basically, those who are familiar with them can see

You can tell at a glance that it is the Daqi standard armor."

Zi Yan frowned.

"Their armor is not Daqi's standard armor. You can't tell where it comes from from the appearance." Gu Fengshang said.

This time, Zi Yan was really surprised.

"Are you familiar with armor from other countries?"

Zi Yan asked.

Da Qi's armor, Gu Feng Shang, a clan leader, can definitely be identified at a glance.

But he may not be able to recognize armor from other countries at a glance.

There is a reason for this.

Many of the armors of other countries, including the Liao Kingdom, which is also a country thousands of miles away, are scattered and do not have a unified standard.

In the early days of the Liao Dynasty, Taizu Tuoba used thirteen suits of armor to raise his army. Later, the armors were successively captured and cast, but they were all in a mess.

Only after the country stabilized did the style gradually begin to be unified.

"Nowadays, I can recognize the standard armors of national soldiers around Daqi, but I can't recognize the irregular armors made in their country."

The ancient custom is to speak calmly.

"Since you can't recognize it, then this is no evidence."

Purple smoke.

In fact, at this point, the evidence is no longer important.

The most important thing is the balance of power.

Obviously, Luo Fengtang's side is the stronger one.

But Luo Fengtang had concerns.

He cannot disrupt the situation in Yizhou.

That's why we can't arrest people in a big way. It's best to have evidence to arrest people, so that we can be justified.

"Although there is no evidence, I know the origins of the group that intercepted and killed the ancient tribesmen."

Ancient fashion.

"Didn't you say that those people were sent by Wan Yiren?"

Zi Yan asked.

"They are Wan Yiren's people, but those people also have backgrounds on the surface. They are the Kuangbao Gang of Kuangbao Mountain, a group of gangsters who occupy the mountain and are kings." Gu Fengshang said.

"Crazy Leopard Mountain... Crazy Leopard Gang... this name is too vulgar."

"That mountain was originally a mountain without an official name. After that group of people took over the mountain, they called it Kuangbao Mountain. They formed the Kuangbao Gang, and they would go out to intercept and kill people in the mountain from time to time."

The ancient custom said: "We and other people in the mountains are scattered and working on their own affairs, so we are often succeeded by the Kuangbao Gang."

"Tell me more about this Crazy Leopard Gang."
