at the same time.

Chen Wujiu and Wei Wuyin were leading a large group of young men to check the construction progress of various sections of the work-for-relief projects.

They are all children of wealthy families who donated money and bought the naming rights.

At this moment, they followed Chen Wujiu and Wei Wuyin respectfully.

I listened to their explanations and took notes seriously.

At their level, who wouldn’t want to leave their name in history?

This titled project is an opportunity to be remembered forever!

But if there was any shoddy workmanship or deception in such a grand project, they would be infamous for eternity and even bring shame to the family!

Therefore, everyone paid attention to every detail and was extremely concerned about the entire project.

As they walked and looked around, they saw that the carriages and horses had gone far away without them noticing. The nearest refugee camp was more than ten miles away.

suddenly.

Moss, the centurion sent by Pharmacist Li, suddenly grabbed the reins of Chen Wujiu's mount and stopped the horse.

"What's wrong?" Wei Wuyin avoided the young man behind him and asked softly.

Moss looked around and said cautiously, "Something's different."

Wei Wuyin quickly looked up, but saw nothing. "Are you saying there's an ambush?"

Moss muttered, "With so many of us here, it's unusual that the birds don't fly and the branches don't move in the forest."

At this time, a young man behind Wei Wuyin also pulled the reins and asked, "What happened?"

"It's okay, you can take a rest." Wei Wuyin thought for a moment and ordered, "Wu Dadao, go call Lao Chen!"

Wu Dadao rode his horse and rushed over. He was the team leader sent by Pharmacist Li.

Chen Wujiu chatted with him on horseback, then waved to Wei Wuyin.

Then he rushed towards the valley entrance without stopping.

Wei Wuyin, of course, understood what he meant. He immediately rode his horse to catch up and whispered, "Old Chen, what do you think?"

Chen Wujiu sighed: "Old Wei, we are still careless."

"I didn't expect that Junior Brother was right again. Sure enough, there are thieves targeting us."

Wei Wuyin glanced at the young man from the aristocratic family behind him and said with a smile: "It's better to say that this person is too courageous."

"Look at us, there are so many amulets behind us. Almost all the noble families in the Great Zhou have bought them. How dare they take action?"

"Aren't you really afraid of accidentally hurting someone and causing a public outcry?"

Chen Wujiu pondered and said, "The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit. If it really comes to that, for the aristocratic families, the death of one or two children will not matter."

Wei Wuyin sighed and said, "Alas, I've been too safe these days. I was careless after all."

Chen Wujiu patted his shoulder and said, "Yingchou Valley is just ahead. This place is the hunting ground of the Zhou Dynasty's playboys. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If we really encounter danger, we should be able to hold on for a while with the help of these people."

Wei Wuyin was not good at hunting and didn't know much about the terrain near Jingzhou, so he followed Chen Wujiu closely.

When he arrived at Yingchou Valley, he couldn't help but gasp and looked at the valley in front of him, "Is this Yingchou Valley?"

I saw a long and narrow valley in front of me, with rock walls on both sides as sharp as a knife. The entrance was only about ten feet wide, just enough for a carriage to pass through.

Wei Wuyin couldn't help but shudder, and the scene of five hundred crossbowmen blocking the valley entrance and arrows flying appeared in his mind.

Suddenly, he thought of something and asked in a muffled voice, "Is there an exit at the other end?"

"There's no exit!" Chen Wujiu said calmly, "This valley is narrow in front and wide in the back, surrounded by cliffs. Inside, there's a large forest, one or two miles wide."

"As long as you guard the exit, no matter how big the beast is, it can't escape. It's perfect for hunting, so it became a hunting ground."

Wei Wuyin's ghostly face was filled with fear: "Do you want us all to go in and be caught in a trap?"

Chen Wujiu shrugged and said with a smile: "In military strategy, this is called putting oneself in a desperate situation in order to survive."

Wei Wuyin said fiercely: "You have to survive first before you can give birth!"

Chen Wujiu said helplessly: "I am in the light, and the enemy is in the dark. This is the best place."

"They certainly didn't expect that we would hide here and hold our ground until help arrives."

Wei Wuyin laughed awkwardly and said, "Well, it's my fault for not studying military strategy seriously back then. I'll just do as you say."

Chen Wujiu explained, "The last time His Majesty was assassinated, he killed nearly three hundred of the assassins. How many hidden forces are there in Jingzhou City now?"

"Even if someone wants to attack us, they'll probably just find some martial arts masters."

"As long as they don't mobilize the army, these young masters behind us, each with seven or eight followers, have nearly two hundred guards. They can hold the strategic location and hold out for two or three hours without any problem."

"Fortunately, I followed my junior brother's instructions. Whenever I leave the camp, I must report it every half hour. Otherwise, the bell will be sounded immediately to sound the alarm."

"As long as the elite soldiers left in the camp notice anything unusual and notify General Li, we will be safe."

Although it sounded reasonable, Wei Wuyin was still full of worries as he was in such a dangerous situation.

He sighed and said, "Old Chen, I hope it will be like what you said."

Wei Wuyin turned around and found that Moss had followed him. He asked, "Mo Baifu, pick a few smart brothers to stay outside and take this opportunity to return to the camp to report the news!"

Moss bowed and said, "I'd better stay with you two gentlemen. You two are definitely not as good as me in commanding this rabble."

"Besides, we only have 200 people. One more person means more strength. It's really not advisable to divide our forces at this time, as we'll be easily defeated one by one."

Wei Wuyin had no choice but to nod.

It's his fault for not studying hard in school and not learning how to march and fight well.
