Fang Mu immediately understood.
"If they don't dare to take this path alone, they'll join forces and accept the Zhen family's protection…"
The Three Kingdoms were the world of aristocratic families.
The Hebei Province was the largest province in the north, and there were countless aristocratic families.
There were eleven counties under it, and almost every county had aristocratic families. Even the Yellow Turban Uprising that swept through most of Hebei did not shake the foundation of these aristocratic families.
Zhongshan County, Wuji County, Zhen family.
It was one of them.
"Luoshen Zhen Mi's family is one of the five richest merchants in the Three Kingdoms!”
Fang Mu carefully looked at the vast caravan in the distance, and the smoke and dust on the official road at the foot of the mountain.
Ignoring the caravan members, there were more than a thousand guards.
These guards all carried weapons, mainly sabers and many bows and arrows.
Fang Mu's eyes were sharp, and he even spotted crossbows on the dozens of guards outside a carriage. These were restricted weapons!
Even though the Great Han Imperial Court was declining, and many local tyrants had private soldiers and weapons were everywhere, weapons like crossbows and armor were still forbidden!
Even if he hid it, it couldn't be exposed!
In the entire Hebei Province, only the Zhen family's caravan could carry a crossbow and travel so openly!
" Big Brother, I heard that the Zhen Family has countless fields, mansions, and over ten thousand servants. They are the number one wealthy merchant family in Hebei Province…"
Fang Yun was also speechless,""Look at those thousand guards, about half of them are well-trained. They should be from the Zhen family.”
Of course, a mere thousand people were not enough in front of the Yellow Turbans of the past.
But now, there were less than 500 people around them.
These brothers were able to survive the Yellow Turban battlefield and escape many times, so they had rich combat experience. Under the training of Zhou and Pei, they were considered elites.
However, the difference in numbers was quite obvious.
Everyone looked at Fang Mu anxiously.
"It's just a thousand people. They can't withstand a single blow.”
Fang Mu smiled.
He needed the help of a great battle to re-awaken the courage and ambition of these Yellow Turban remnants. How could he back down at the last minute?
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He was confident and flamboyant."Since Hebei's Zhen family is so rich, wouldn't it be good for me to achieve great things?”
Fang Yun and the others were shocked.
From the words of the First Master, he didn't just plan to rob this caravan, but also included Hebei's Zhen Clan as his target?!
Before anyone could ask.
Fang Mu had already shot out like a sharp arrow.
Only a cold and wild voice was left."I will only give you one chance to choose!”
"Those who are afraid of battle, leave. Those who are not afraid of death, follow me!”
Everyone's hearts trembled. How could they not understand that the Chief wanted to use this battle to filter the quality of his followers…Not everyone had the qualifications and opportunity to obtain the power of an Immortal God!
Fang Yun did not hesitate at all.
"Kill them!"
The former Yellow Turban soldier was now filled with killing intent. He raised his saber and followed closely behind Fang Mu.
The rest of the people looked at each other and saw the anxiety in each other's eyes, as well as…a hint of ambition that was gradually aroused!
The four hundred and sixty-four people suddenly gripped their weapons tightly.
"I swear to follow my lord!"
"Kill them!"
A multi-colored torrent rushed down from the mountain.
His aura was like a rainbow!
…………
The smoke and dust that swept up from the mountain was soon discovered by the caravan.
The expressions of the merchants under the Zhen family's protection instantly changed. They were so nervous that they did not know what was going on. Some of them even trembled.
However, the true core of this caravan, the Zhen clansmen, were fearless.
"There really are mountain bandits in Jizhou who dare to attack our Zhen family?”
The manager of the Zhen family's caravan, who was the leader, even had a puzzled look in his eyes."Could they be bandits from other places?”
Ever since the uprising in the Road of Peace was suppressed, he had never thought that his caravan would be robbed by bandits again.
This was the hinterland of Jizhou!
Who doesn't know the name of the Zhen family?
The Zhen family had been passed down for several generations and had clansmen with official positions of 2,000 dans. The late head of the Zhen family, Zhen Yi, was once a 2,000 dans Shangcai Magistrate. Just the Zhen family's wealth alone was comparable to that of a country…
Who in the world did not have a good relationship with the Zhen family?
From the Wuji County Magistrate, the Minister of Zhongshan, to the Jizhou Governor Han Fu, and even the four generations of the Yuan family of Runan…they were all distinguished guests of the Zhen family!
Unrivalled wealth, hereditary 2000 dan of fame, aristocratic status, and a terrifying network of relationships, all of these combined to create a colossus that dominated Jizhou!
Although he no longer had any officials, he was still the number one merchant in Jizhou!
The kind that could make Han Fu send an army to wipe out the bandits at any moment!
It was because of this that the Zhen family steward found it unbelievable.
"These bandits don't even know how to choose their targets. Don't you think that anyone can provoke my Zhen family's caravan?!”
This thought flashed through his mind, but he did not panic at all. He ordered the guard leader loudly,"Zhen Ping, protect the goods and the other merchants and defeat them!”
"Yes!"
The leader of the guards, Zhen Ping, raised his saber and shouted as he rode out.
He commanded the guards to get into formation to face the enemy.
However, what surprised him was that before the billowing smoke and dust on the mountain had even swept over, only an unarmed person appeared in his line of sight.
Like an arrow that had left the bow, it charged straight at the merchant group.
"What's going on?"
Zhen Ping was dumbfounded. Robbing alone?
Charging into the formation?
Was his eyes playing tricks on him, or was the other party too arrogant?
He signaled for the guards to be on guard and stepped out of the crowd at the same time. He held the reins and slowly faced the other party."Halt! This is the Zhongshan Zhen family caravan…"
Before he could finish his sentence, another group of bandits appeared in his line of sight.
Instantly, all the bewilderment turned into a roar,"
"Enemy attack!"
His roar spread, and his eyes flashed with killing intent.
Seeing that the person at the front had actually pulled such a large distance away from the bandits behind him, he did not hesitate to clamp his horse's abdomen and spurred it to charge at the other party.
"Not only is he unarmed, he doesn't even have a piece of leather armor on him. He dares to charge into the formation like those battle generals. He simply doesn't put our Zhen family's guards in his eyes!”
"Watch me kill this thief and make a contribution to the family head!”
