Zhao Feng locked himself in his room and spent the entire night thinking of a solution.
On the other side.
Wei County.
It wasn't too far from Mount Whitewave, about seventy to eighty miles away.
If he walked, it would take about two days.
If he rode a horse, he would be able to resist for half a day.
Late at night, the only member of the Wei family who had escaped returned to Wei County.
"Elder, something bad has happened. The people we sent to Mount Whitewave have been completely wiped out.”
"Say it again? Are you kidding me?"
"Elder, I'm not joking. Out of nearly a hundred people, only I came back alive.”
"Tell me quickly, what happened? Are there many bandits?" The Wei Clan elder hurriedly asked.
"Uh, there weren't many of them, only about twenty of them. However, those twenty of them killed all of us.”
"I heard from afar that their leader seems to be Zhao Bolong.”
The elder of the Wei family gasped, his heart filled with shock.
"No wonder Zhao Bolong didn't die.”
"In order to kill him, the clan head spent a lot of effort back then. I didn't expect him to still survive.”
"Right, how is Wei Hu? He didn't come back either?" The elder asked nervously.
"I didn't see anyone. It seems that they were killed when they entered the mountain.”
"Alright, get lost. Remember, don't tell anyone about this. Otherwise, you know the consequences.”
……
The head of the Wei family, Wei Bao.
Due to his meritorious service in exterminating the Yellow Turban Army, he was conferred the title of Hedong County's Chief Bookkeeper. He was not in Wei County at the moment, but in Anyi.
In Wei County, the Wei family was currently being managed by two elders.
The elder of the Wei family sent someone to inform Wei Bao.
Wei Hu was dead. After all, he was Wei Bao's younger brother, so he had to inform him.
? Moreover, Wei Bao had already said that if there was any news of Zhao Feng, he would be the first to know and he would deal with it.
However, the Wei family elder would never have thought that just because he had spent a few days to inform Wei Bao, he would regret it.
If the elders of the Wei family could make a prompt decision, they would immediately gather their men and attack Mount White Wave.
He didn't need much, just one thousand people. Zhao Feng's group was going to block with a hammer?
However, the problem was that the elder was afraid.
A person's name, a tree's shadow.
The name Zhao Bolong alone was enough to make the elders of the Wei Family not dare to act rashly.
……
The next morning.
Zhao Feng gathered everyone.
"Everyone, I, Zhao Bolong, like to be straightforward and speak frankly.”
"Those hundred people yesterday were from the Wei family. You might know that I have some grudges with the Wei family, and it's the kind that won't rest until one of us dies.”
"Since the Wei family knows my whereabouts, they will definitely not let it go. They will definitely fight me to the death.”
"And I, Zhao Bolong, don't want to hide and run around anymore.”
"Today, I have gathered everyone here because I want everyone to choose a path.”
"If you follow me, you'll have to fight to the death with the Wei family. That's a business where you hang your head on your belt and can lose your life at any time.”
"If you don't want to follow me, you can go down the mountain. You can also share the remaining food.”
"Even if it's a bit hard, at least we don't have to fight with our lives.”
? In other words, Zhao Feng was giving everyone two options.
One, following him would mean death.
The other was to take the food and go down the mountain to continue being a commoner, drawing a clear line with him.
Xu Huang and the others didn't need to say much.
Naturally, they would not leave, and no one would leave.
? Zhao Feng's words were for the people who had joined later.
Especially the villagers who came later. They all had families and it was indeed not easy.
……
"Chief, who are you looking down on? You've saved our village twice, and you're still speaking like an outsider?”
"Last time, I said that we were willing to die for you. Now that we've encountered something, are we just going to leave?”
"Are you kidding me? If you really leave, I won't be able to live peacefully in my next life. Let's not talk about anything else, I'll definitely fight you to the death.”
"Who cares who it is? What Wei Clan? Or soldiers? As long as the canal commander gives the order, even the emperor will charge.”
The leading carpenter expressed his stance.
"Chief, I'm willing to stay. Even if I die, I won't complain.”
"Me too…"
"Me too…"
? Zhao Feng didn't expect that not a single person would leave. This made Zhao Feng feel touched.
"Alright, since everyone has decided, then listen to my orders.”
"All the young men, follow me down the mountain. We have to strike first and not be passive.”
"The others will stay behind at Mount Whitewave and wait for our victorious return.”
Cai Yan's legs twitched, but he didn't say anything.
? But Zhao Feng could see that she wanted to go as well.
Because Cai Yan also hated the Wei family that deceived her.
Cai Yan's skills were not bad, but Zhao Feng still didn't plan to let her go. After all, it was too dangerous.
Zhao Feng came to Cai Yan's side.
"Little Yan, after I leave, I'll leave these old, weak, women and children to you.”
"If I don't come back…bring them down the mountain as soon as possible and find a new hiding place.”
"What nonsense are you talking about? You must come back safely.”
"Don't worry, leave the rest to me. Don't underestimate my ability.”
Cai Yan forced out a smile and waved his fists at Zhao Feng, indicating that he was very strong.
……
Zhao Feng and company didn't delay.
After descending the mountain, everyone rode a horse and headed towards Wei County.
? A total of eighty-two people. This was all the power Zhao Feng could mobilize.
Although it looked like these dozens of people were going to Wei County like throwing eggs at a rock.
However, Zhao Feng believed that ants could still fight elephants. As long as you hid well, the elephant wouldn't be able to step on you.
After walking for about half a day.
When they were still ten miles away from Wei County, they stopped advancing. Instead, they found a forest to hide in.
"Chief, what should we do next? Charge in directly?"
Zhao Feng couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Are you stupid? A hundred of us are going to charge into the city? I'm afraid he won't even know how he died."
"Send a few unfamiliar faces to investigate the city first before discussing the next step.”
