The commotion caused by Chang Sun Dechong when training the people eventually attracted the attention of the Shu soldiers.

Despite this, when the Shu soldiers observed that the Wei border soldiers did not show any unusual behavior, they did not take any drastic action. The Shu soldiers simply maintained a high level of vigilance, closely monitoring the every move of the 180,000 Wei people, ensuring that they would not cross the border and enter Shu territory.

After all, Wei and Shu had a long and deep friendship. Against this backdrop, Wei's sale of five million kilograms of refined salt to Shu at a low price, without the latter paying a deposit, was undoubtedly a testament to the friendly relationship between the two countries.

If Wei really wanted to wage war against Shu, they would obviously not show such generosity before the military action.

Therefore, these Shu soldiers generally did not believe that Wei would suddenly change its stance and take aggressive actions against Shu. They were more inclined to believe that these actions of Wei were just normal border management and civilian training, and did not need to be overly interpreted as military threats.

On the border of Shu, a soldier turned to his companion and asked a question: "Look, what on earth is going on over there in Wei?"

The soldier next to him frowned and shook his head, replying, "I don't know, but judging by their display, they appear to be conducting some kind of military training. Perhaps it's to improve their people's ability to defend themselves."

"Self-defense capability? Hammer? Does Wei intend to let these ordinary people go to the battlefield?" the soldier asked doubtfully.

"I don't know. I'm not from the Wei Kingdom. But we still have to be vigilant and not allow anything that might threaten our country to happen."

As they spoke, the two men gripped their weapons tightly, their eyes never leaving the border of Wei, as if they were always ready to deal with any emergency.

The soldiers of Shu knew that Wei was resisting the attacks of the Xiongnu and Gan. These ordinary people were training here. They were probably preparing to train a new army to support the front line.

On the other side of the Wei border, Changsun Dechong was commanding the people to conduct an unprecedented large-scale drill. All of this was to be ready to respond to Wen Hejun and the King of Shu at any time.

They were organized like regular armies, with each man assigned clear roles and tasks, carefully designed to ensure that each man could play his best role in battle.

During the training process, Chang Sun Dechong focused not only on imparting combat skills but also on cultivating the people's resilience and strict adherence to military orders. He understood that the strength of an army lies not only in its combat skills but also in the willpower and discipline of its members.

Although they were not from military backgrounds, under the strict requirements and careful guidance of Changsun Dechong, the civilians gradually demonstrated amazing perseverance and determination. They were not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and they always persevered in the training grounds, striving to improve their abilities. They never complained, never slacked off, and gave their all in every training session.

At the same time, they also maintain a high degree of respect and execution for military orders, and can respond quickly and take decisive action no matter what difficulties and challenges they face.

Under the training of Chang Sun Dechong, these eighteen people have been able to quickly assemble and act at any time, demonstrating extremely high teamwork and combat efficiency.

Chang Sun Dechong also knew in his heart that a strong army not only needed superb combat skills and advanced equipment, but more importantly, it must have firm beliefs and strict discipline.

At present, these 180,000 people have not yet undergone systematic military training and have not yet become real soldiers; but they have demonstrated many admirable qualities.

After a period of training and tempering, these people will surely make significant progress in their combat effectiveness. Although they still have some shortcomings in terms of weapons and equipment, their combat effectiveness is enough to rival the well-trained 100,000 new troops in the court.

Chang Sun Dechong had already begun to plan how to transform these 180,000 people into a real army. He knew that this would require time and systematic training, as well as sufficient weapons and equipment to equip them.

However, the current weapons inventory of Wei State is not sufficient to meet the equipment needs of these 180,000 people, which makes Changsun Dechong very distressed.

Chang Sun Dechong was eager to find a solution to this problem to ensure that this potentially powerful force could be fully utilized.

Outside Ningwai, Wen Hejun and Wang Defa finally reached the Shu capital after several days of trekking. Along the way, they got along very well and developed a deep friendship. Thanks to the Shu army's escort, they encountered no unscrupulous bandits, ensuring a safe journey.

As they stood outside the magnificent walls of the Shu capital, they were stopped by guards. Although Wang Defa personally tried to persuade the guards to let them pass, the guards remained unmoved.

After all, facing the arrival of 20,000 Wei soldiers, the guards were well aware of the risks involved. If they allowed these people into the capital without authorization, they might not have to stand guard the next day, and they might even lose their lives.

As the guards of the capital of Shu, the safety of the capital is of utmost importance, and the guards dare not slack off in the slightest.

Seeing Wang Defa raging in front of the two guards, Wen Hejun stepped forward and said softly, "Brother Wang, forget it. We've delivered the goods here, and we've completed our mission. We won't be entering the capital. But you must pay for the refined salt. After all, I need to take it back to report to the court. If I lose my brother, I'll be in trouble."

Wang Defa was deeply moved by Wen Hejun's considerate words. He immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Brother Wen, I'll definitely get everything done for you. Also, after I get to the city, I'll have someone get you some meat. You've all been working hard lately."

Wen Hejun held Wang Defa's hand tightly, tears of gratitude gleaming in his eyes as he said excitedly, "Thank you so much, brother."

At the moment when Wang Defa was about to enter the capital to report, Wen Hejun still stood there, gazing at Wang Defa with deep affection. The moment Wang Defa stepped into the city gate, he couldn't help but look back and saw Wen Hejun still standing there, his eyes full of reluctance and deep affection.

This scene deeply touched Wang Defa's heart, and the surging emotions in his heart became even more turbulent. This made him deeply feel that the people of Wei were so kind and sincere.
