"Young Master Wei, go this way." The guard led the way ahead.

Gong Shufeng followed behind with every step and three turns.

His brother's words still echoed in his ears.

The future is up to you to decide... right?

This made him feel a little confused.

In the past more than ten years, he has never really made a decision - to be adopted by the family, to be selected by the family, to devote himself to the study of mechanism techniques, to become a disciple of the clan, to be sent to Jinxia by Gongshuwang... most of his life has been following The instructions of the public loser, you only need to try your best to complete it.

Before coming to Qiguo, Gong Shufeng always felt that this was no problem, and everyone else was doing the same thing, including Gong Shujin. Even in terms of completing tasks, the other party did better than him. Most of the research projects arranged by the family were answered by his younger brother first. Faced with this talent, even he felt a little jealous. . .

When Gong Shujin vomited in a mess on the boat and had to rely on his care, he had a rare sense of leadership. What's more, the talent of mechanism skills is not comparable, and he is still better than the other party in dealing with the world. It will be very important to build a relationship with Miss Mo or other high-ranking people in Jinxia City, and this time the mission will definitely be dominated by him.

However, Gongshujin was ahead again.

——He decides his own future without authorization.

Even the orders of the family can no longer restrain him.

Faced with this change, Gong Shufeng still has the illusion that he is in a dream.

"My lord, we have to hurry up, the large army is about to leave." The guard urged.

"I'm not a son, you can just call me by my name." Gong Shufeng shook his head to suppress his distracting thoughts.

"You are a person who is angry, and you have helped everyone a lot these days, and you deserve this title." The guard insisted, "Even if you have nothing now, you will definitely be able to stand out when you go to Jinxia."

If this person knew that his purpose of going to Jinxia was to steal the mechanism technology, he would probably cut off his own head on the spot.

After staying in the cave for so many days, Gong Shufeng already understood the significance of Jinxia City to this rebel army.

For them, that is holy land.

"Where does this road lead?" He decided not to think about it.

"Behind the Huangting Mountain." The guard replied, "Once you go down the mountain, there will be a large flat field. Even without horses, you can reach the border of Shenzhou in two days."

It turns out that the Cricket Cave where they are located is in Huangting Mountain? Gongshufeng immediately thought of the direction of the mountains on the map - this mountain range is not very majestic and rugged, but it happens to be across the north of Shenliu and Shenliu, which is not a big or small obstacle. Over time, Liuzhou's traffic lines were all concentrated in the south of the mountain, and Jiujiang was the main route, while few people in the north were willing to pass.

Judging from the tone of the other party, it means that there is a trail connecting the mountains, and they can cross directly from the west slope to the east slope!

No wonder the Privy Council only wants to search and not directly send troops to encircle and suppress.

I'm afraid Lord Wu Bairen doesn't know anything about the situation of the rebels' hideout.

"arrive."

The guard led Gong Shufeng through a guarded wooden door, the sudden sunlight above his head made the latter involuntarily close his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he couldn't help being shocked!

Surprisingly, a large group of people gathered densely outside the cave, at least three or four thousand people!

"These... are all refugees?"

"Not all of them." The guard replied, "People like you probably account for half of them."

"What about the remaining half?"

"They are all local people who were forced to be homeless. In order to eliminate us, the government is never afraid of killing one by mistake." When he said this, there was obvious hatred in his tone.

Gong Shufeng was surprised by another thing - he thought that this "rebel army" was just rural peasants active in the east of Liuzhou, with limited influence and strength, but they were able to recruit thousands of people. This can completely compete with a state garrison! If their purpose is not to escort these people to Shenzhou, but to take everyone into their own hands, then it is definitely second only to the Liuzhou Privy Council!

Put it in Xu country, this is undoubtedly a large-scale riot that will be reported to the central government!

But in Qiguo Shangyuan City, he had never heard of such a group of people in Liuzhou, which shows how weak the Qixing Privy Council's ability to control the bottom has been.

A mere Bai Ren can completely suppress this matter.

"So many people... it might be quite slow to transfer..." Gong Shufeng couldn't help but said, "As soon as everyone leaves the mountain area, people will definitely notice it. The two-day journey is enough for those local tyrants to unite and start hunting. .”

He obviously planned to go on the road alone, so it would be beneficial to him not to say these words.

But he subconsciously said it.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wei, those people probably don't have the energy to deal with these thousands of people." The other party said disapprovingly, "They are all gathered in the west of the mountain now, and they are marching towards our base camp."

"What did you say?" Gong Shufeng couldn't help being taken aback, "Has the location of the cricket cave been revealed?"

"Exposed can't be said. The leader said that there is no airtight wall in the world. We can't hide in the cave forever." The guard raised his head, "Instead of being passively discovered, it's better to use it to severely attack the enemy. For this plan, we A lot of preparations have been made, and now is the day to make it happen!"

"Actually, we are arranging a new transfer... When the time is right, I will safely send you across the Liushen border." Gongsun Fang's words came to mind.

This is what they call timing!

The rebels used themselves to attract the attention of the enemy, and then took the opportunity to transfer away all the refugees stranded there!

And their sole purpose in doing this is to save as many people as possible from the Privy Council.

Gong Shufeng didn't know what to say for a moment.

Because even the ordinary guard in front of him, who couldn't be more ordinary, had a shining light in his eyes.

"Young Master Wei, you go, there will be someone specially assigned to take you to Shenzhou." The other party bowed to him solemnly, then turned and walked into the mountain road, "I wish you a smooth journey ahead."

...

On the peak to the northwest of Mount Huangting, Gong Shujin, Gongsun Fang and others were monitoring the enemy's every move.

Since the morning, crowds have entered the mountain area one after another. By noon, the total number of enemies counted by the reconnaissance team has exceeded 4,500.

"Tuntianzhuang, Ertiaozhuang, Weijiazhuang... The nearby Zhuangzi have all sent people over. It seems that they have made a big decision this time." Gongsunfang put down the looking glass, and the words "made by Jinxia Machinery Manufacturing Bureau" were engraved on the barrel. "The words are particularly eye-catching.

"It's okay to let them catch the refugees. Once the limelight is not right, these bastard grandchildren will run faster than anyone else." Someone said disdainfully.

This caused a burst of laughter.

Gongsun Fang also raised the corners of her mouth, but soon returned to her usual appearance, "Indeed, but our real opponent is not them, but the Privy Council of Huiyang City."

Gong Shujin's eyes also fell on a team holding a blue pennant—this team has less than a thousand people, but it seems to have become the core of the enemy army. It is far superior to other guard troops in terms of formation and momentum. . In other words, if it weren't for this force, those tyrants would not be willing to drag all their families to Huangting Mountain.

That was the defense army formed by Wu Bairen himself, and it was also the official army of Huiyang City.
