In fact, what Yu Feng and others call the cottage is an abandoned villa on the mountain. It seems that a wealthy family originally built it here to escape the summer heat. Now it is occupied by Yu Feng and others, and a simple wall and fortifications have been built around it.

Even if it is a copycat.

Everyone came to the main hall of the villa and the guests and hosts were seated. It seemed that the gangsters were living a very tight life. They didn't even have tea for the guests, so they had to serve two bowls of mountain spring water. Fortunately, Pan and Ding were not particular about this.

Everyone exchanged a few words before the conversation officially got down to business.

It turns out that Li Xianzhi had a good life in Hezhou, but the rebels suddenly launched an attack on Hezhou not long ago. Although Li Xianzhi was a prince with tens of thousands of troops under his command, his strength was still far behind the rebels.

He was quickly defeated, and the entire Hezhou was occupied by rebels.

Li Xianzhi himself took his family and went south to defect to Song Dynasty King Zhao You, who occupied Shanzhou. However, his subordinates were completely dispersed, including Yu Feng and others. They were unwilling to surrender to the rebels and had nowhere to defect for the time being. They had no choice but to surrender.

As a result, they had no choice but to go to this area and become bandits, barely making ends meet.

Yu Feng was born into a military family and has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. Although he is not officially a member of the martial arts world, he knows a little bit about martial arts. Wei Cheng is different. He was a standard farmer before joining the army, and his martial arts skills only improved after he joined the army.

He is a student, so he knows very little about things in the martial arts world. Jindou Bao is well-known in the martial arts world, but he has never heard of it.

Today Wei Cheng led people down the mountain to do "business" and unexpectedly met Pan and Ding. As soon as he was captured, some of his followers went up the mountain to report the news. One of them knew a little about Jianghu affairs and had vaguely heard of Jin Doubao.

Because of his reputation, he specifically explained it to Yu Feng. The latter became anxious when he heard about it, and then he led people down the mountain to rescue the siege. This is what happened in the past.

Although Pan and Ding sympathized with the experiences of Yu Feng and others, they were not very interested in it. What they cared about was why the rebels suddenly turned around and attacked Li Xianzhi, which Yu Feng also introduced.

"Actually, we only found out about this later. In fact, the rebels mainly wanted to deal with Xiahou Suiliang, the king of Dongping this time. We in Hezhou encountered disaster just because we are located in the middle of the two sides."

Pan and Ding were both shocked when they heard this, and quickly confirmed: "Is your news true?"

"You can't be wrong. After our group was defeated, we encountered a small group of rebels. We set up an ambush to deal with them and captured dozens of prisoners. We heard these things from them. It seems that King Dongping

In the previous period, he rescued the assassin who assassinated King Youyun and made a big fuss in Xinjing. The rebels had a grudge, so they mobilized troops to deal with him, and by the way, they also dealt with us princes along the way."

When Pan and Ding heard this, it was big news. Although Xiahou Suiliang had some quarrels with Jin Doubao now, he was still Lin Yunfei's disciple after all, and his safety could not be ignored by everyone. At the moment, Pan and Ding

After inquiring about some details and confirming that they were correct, he planned to stand up and leave. Unexpectedly, Yu Feng spoke again.

"You two, actually I have an unkind invitation to invite you here this time."

"Master of the village, please speak."

"That's right. We heard that Lord Linbao also recently intended to raise an army to fight for supremacy. I wonder if this is the case?"

Pan and Ding were stunned when they heard this: "Why is the leader asking about this?"

"That's right, it's helpless for us people to fall into the trap and become bandits now, so I've been thinking about joining Ming Lord again. I heard that Lord Linbao is planning to raise an army. With his reputation as an old man in the martial arts world, he will definitely achieve something.

It may not be God's will that we meet the two guardians, so I thought of taking my brothers to Jindou Castle to make a living, and I hope the two guardians can help lead the way."

Pan and Ding couldn't help but be a little surprised when they heard this. They didn't expect that Yu Feng actually had this intention. If Jin Doubao is indeed recruiting troops now, Yu Feng and his group, Ding and Pan, also looked at it, although they couldn't talk about it.

They are elites, but they are still much better than the newly recruited people. It is not a bad thing to really defect to Jindou Fort. It's just that the two sides met for the first time today and didn't understand each other. Whether they should accept them or not, Pan and Ding were at a loss for a while.

I can't make up my mind either.

Yu Feng saw what they were thinking and immediately stepped forward and knelt on the ground: "Two guardians, we sincerely surrender to Lord Limbao, and we hope that you will fulfill your wishes."

As soon as the leader knelt down, the rest of the bandits immediately knelt all over the ground. Even the most rude Wei Cheng knelt down and kowtowed: "Two protectors, Old Wei, I have offended you so much just now. Please forgive me for my mistakes.

We people really have nowhere to go now, if you are willing to take us in, we will be so embarrassed that you will not hesitate to do so!"

Pan and Ding couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when they saw this scene. Finally, they discussed and Pan Hong came forward and said: "Everyone, get up first. In fact, recruiting troops is not our brothers' business, but since you are so sincere, we

It is not inconvenient to chill your hearts, so I will write you a letter. You go to Jizhou to find Ji Baida and Mr. Ji. It would be best if he is willing to take you in, otherwise our brothers will be unable to help."

Yu Feng and others were immediately overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly kowtowed to express their thanks. Pan and Ding hurriedly helped everyone up. Then everyone found pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and Pan Hong wrote them a letter of recommendation. Yu Feng

When people get it, they will naturally be very happy.

Pan and Ding discussed that it was a big deal for the rebels to attack Dongzhou, so they changed their previous plan and instead of going to the Dalin faction, they rushed to Dongzhou to inquire about the news. Yu Feng and others heard that they also wanted to go together.

But Pan Hong felt that it would be inconvenient for so many people to move together, so he asked them to rush to Jizhou first. Yu Feng and others could not resist him, so they had to do it.

In this way, Pan and Ding stayed in the village for one night, and then rushed to Dongzhou, while Yu Feng, Wei Cheng and others packed up and fled to Jizhou.

Speaking of which, after Pan and Ding set out, they did encounter more and more refugees along the way. When asked, the situation was similar to what Yu Feng and others said. They were all rebels marching towards Dongzhou, taking care of the separatist princes along the way.

Originally, Pan and Ding wanted to go to Dongzhou to meet Xiahou Suiliang, but they did not expect that the outskirts of Dongzhou were almost already a war zone, and civilians could not enter at all.

It's not impossible for Pan and Ding to risk entering Dongzhou together, but there is no need. They might as well go back to Jindoubao to inform Lin Yunfei of the matter first, and then everyone can make a decision. Thinking of this, the two of them rushed day and night.

return.

After Luo Tianbao and others listened to Pan and Ding's stories, they were also very surprised. They didn't expect that so many things happened during their trip. Lin Yunfei pondered for a while and said: "It's best if Long Tianxiang is willing to help us, but this person is ambitious.

Bobo, for the sake of power and position, even his senior brother can be betrayed. Although we have to use him, we must be more careful in the future. As for Suiliang, we can't just sit idly by and ignore it. I don't think it's possible. We can only take action in advance, so that we can help Suiliang at least.

Share some of the rebel forces."

When everyone present heard that Lin Yunfei planned to raise troops in advance, they had different attitudes and reactions. Pan Hong was the first to speak: "Master, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Now we don't have enough manpower, and we don't have enough food, grass and equipment. If we raise the troops in a hurry,
