The moon stars are scarce, and the mountain roads are bumpy.

The 4,000-strong army marched south along the mountain road, passing through the Woniu Mountain section, the sky was already slightly bright, and the dangerous rocks on both sides of the mountain road were towering, and weeds were everywhere.

The road here was rough and bumpy, and Yuan Yao had already put the carriage into the warehouse on his left hand and walked with the crowd on foot.

This ancient march was very different from what Yuan Yao thought, there were no flat and broad avenues in many places, and most of the places were still barren mountains and mountains, uninhabited.

"Lord, the mountains here are steep, the sides are towering and the mountain roads are low-lying, which is an excellent terrain for ambushes, and we must guard against it!" Liu Ji, who was walking beside Yuan Yao, looked at the terrain in front of him, and his eyebrows showed a sense of worry.

"Sir, don't you think too much, this is the land under the jurisdiction of Runan County, who will send soldiers and horses to set up an ambush here?" Yuan Yin, who had been complaining all the way, heard Liu Ji's words, stopped and gasped and said.

"Give me the order to stop the march! Let Huang Zhong send someone to explore the way before! ”

Yuan Yao ignored Yuan Yin's words, after all, this uncle was as unreliable as himself, plus he was a little tired after marching all the way, and after hearing Liu Ji's words, he simply ordered the army to rest.

"Virtuous nephew..."Yuan Yin couldn't help but sigh slightly when he saw that Yuan Yaojun's order had been issued: "Hey..."

After speaking, Yuan Yin found a solid stone and sat down, looked around tiredly, muttering in his heart that Yuan Yao was too cautious in doing things, and I was afraid that he would not be able to get out of this wilderness for a while.

"Uncle, what kind of mountain is this?" Yuan Yao casually handed over the water bladder, looked at Yuan Yin with a smile and asked.

"This place is called Lying Cow Mountain, do you look like a lying buffalo on this mountain?" After taking the water bladder and drinking happily, Yuan Yin talked about the local rumors.

After Yuan Yin said this, Yuan Yao looked in the direction towards Woniu Mountain again, and he really looked like a lying person...

Actually, it's nothing.

Where can this look like a cow?

And it's a buffalo!

I really admire the imagination of the ancients, this abstract thinking brain hole makes Yuan Yao feel beyond reach.

"Newspaper—"

"Childe, General Huang has caught two bandit spies!"

"Are there really thieves?" Hearing the herald's words, Yuan Yin's eyes widened.

Soon after, Huang Zhong pressed two lean men who were in tattered clothes like beggars.

"Lord, I found out after interrogation just now that there is really a Yellow Turban remnant party in this Woniu Mountain, and their leader is called Pei Yuanshao, who has been here for several years!" Huang Zhong hurried over and was also surprised by this matter.

"How many people are under this Pei Yuanshao?" Yuan Yao thought about it for a while, well, still not impressed.

"There are only a few hundred people, including the elderly, weak, women and children, and there are only a few dozen people who can go out of the mountains to be thieves." For this kind of little thief who is not in the stream, Huang Zhong didn't pay attention to it at all.

Yuan Yao didn't care much about it, after all, looking at the appearance of the two little minions in front of him, they didn't look like the green forest heroes who gathered in the mountains and forests at all, but more like refugees fleeing, or even worse.

"Childe is Yuan Shu's eldest son, Yuan Yao?" At this moment, a minion kneeling on the ground suddenly raised his head and asked.

"How do you know my name?" Hearing this little minion shouting his name, Yuan Yao looked over a little strangely.

"The leader of my family has long heard about the deeds of the son, killed Liu Pi, and accepted the remnants of the yellow turban under his command, the son does not kill women and children, benevolent and righteous, the leader of my family has long wanted to lead us to join the crowd." The little minion seems to be a well-spoken person, and his expression is quite clear.

"Childe, if these people really come to vote, you might as well accept it sincerely, although there are not many thieves in this group, if they desperately refuse to stay here, it will also be a trouble for our army." Seeing that Yuan Yao hadn't expressed his position yet, Liu Ji leaned over and said.

"Okay, you go back and tell your family leader, if you really come to vote, immediately lead the whole village down the mountain to Shun!" Yuan Yao thought about it, and then motioned for Huang Zhong to put the two minions back.

"Lord, your subordinates can be with the two of you!" At this time, Gong Du under the command of Chang Nu stood up.

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news." Yuan Yao glanced at Gong Du and nodded.

Gong Du, as Liu Bi's former subordinate, is also from the Yellow Turban, and he also has a certain reputation among the Yellow Turban Remnant Party, so it may be smoother for him to surrender.

Thinking of this, Yuan Yao simply chatted with Yuan Yin about some family routines, and tried to understand some insider stories in the Yuan family in his words to increase his knowledge.

In less than an hour, Gong Du came to Yuan Yao with a group of people, this time not only the previous two spies were captured, but also a dozen or so men.

"Lord, this is Pei Yuanshao, the big leader of Woniu Mountain, and Zhou Cang, the second leader." Gong Du didn't let Yuan Yao take the initiative to ask, so he introduced it with his hands.

"Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang?" Yuan Yao, who originally nodded and smiled indifferently, suddenly showed a gleam in his eyes when he heard Zhou Cang's name.

Pei Yuanshao was dressed in a yellow cloth shirt and was slightly thin.

On the other side, Zhou Cang formed a stark contrast, not only was he tall, but he also had a beard, and his whole person was as black as Li Kui.

Pei Yuanshao and Yuan Yao had never heard of it in their previous lives, but Zhou Cang was quite impressed.

After all, every time Guan Yu appeared, Zhou Cang always held Guan Erye's big knife, and he looked five big and three thick, and the resolution was very high.

I thought that I would accept hundreds of yellow turban remnants casually, but I didn't expect to pack a Zhou Cang!

"You are Yuan Yao, the son of the Yuan family?" Zhou Cang glanced at Yuan Yao, his face a little dissatisfied.

As a reckless man, Zhou Cang's standard for measuring people is extremely simple and rude, and he is strong and able to fight, that is, a first-class hero.

Like Yuan Yao, a group of powerless scholars, they looked weak and unbeatable, and they were not taken seriously by him at all.

"I'm Yuan Yao, are you here to return to Shun, or are you here to write a war letter?" Seeing that Zhou Cang's expression was wrong, Yuan Yao asked solemnly.

Now Yuan Yao has become more and more courageous after practicing "Nine Changes of the Hidden Dragon", and there are thousands of troops around him, surrounded by fierce generals such as Xu Chu and Huang Zhong, and a Zhou Cang is really not in his eyes.

"If you want us to submit to you, it's okay, as long as one of you can defeat me one-on-one, all of us in Woniu Mountain will immediately submit to you."

"If even I can't defeat you, then please leave on your own, I promise not to violate the river water with your well water!"

Zhou Cang is obviously not optimistic about Yuan Yao, and as the number one master of Woniu Mountain, he naturally has backbone, although Yuan's family is big, he does not necessarily have to choose to take refuge.

Yuan Yao looked at Pei Yuanshao, and seeing that there was not the slightest objection on his face, Yuan Yao showed a faint smile.

"Fighting, I like it the most! Lord, just leave this kind of thing to me! Xu Chu, who was marching in a low-key manner along the way, heard someone calling for battle, rubbed his hands twice, and his mouth cracked, looking full of energy.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Xu Chu, this person is loyal, you should pay attention." Looking at Xu Chu, who was gearing up, Yuan Yao nodded, and specially admonished.

Yuan Yao felt that Zhou Cang followed Guan Yu until his death, and he admired this person, so he specifically mentioned Xu Chu.

But this sentence is particularly harsh to Zhou Cang's ears, which is obviously looking down on him!

"Xu Chu, right? Don't keep your hands, lest you die at my hands and regret it! Seeing that the people around him took the initiative to give up a vacant space, Zhou Cang's black and red face showed murderous intent.
