Wei Shi decided to use Junshan Fort as the foundation to resist Cao Jun's attack!

In Neixiang City, Lou Gui was left to handle government affairs in the city, while Wei Shi led all the soldiers from the countryside directly to Junshan, further accelerating the pace of building the Wubao.

Twenty days.

Junshan Fort is completely different from Wang Zhong’s former village.

Thanks to their previous experience in running a kiln, Wang En, Wang Lao Wang, Zhong Lin and other villagers in Yushuwan are no strangers to building houses, moving wood, digging mountains and building rocks.

Compared with the people in Neixiang County who were still dissatisfied, Wang En and Zhong Lin had no objections to Wei Shi's order.

Before they followed Wei Shi, they lived in poverty and were overwhelmed by Cai An, Cai Guang and others. But now, they are proud and the masters of their own country, and their lives are getting better and better.

The Wang family was good at opening kilns and built them in a dangerous place on Junshan Mountain with rubble barriers.

Zhong Lin was good at carpentry and felled wood to build houses. In a short period of time, more than 30 wooden houses that could accommodate people were built in the valley behind Junshan.

Chen Xiaonan, Father Chen and a group of villagers were measuring the arable mountainous land in the valley.

Before joining the army, Mr. Chen was a good farmer. Although he is disabled now, his eyesight is still there. He can tell where the land is fertile and where it is barren at a glance.

Seeing Wei Shi's arrival, Wang En, Chen Lao and other villagers from the original Yushu Bay gathered around and told Wei Shi about their hard work these days.

"Fellow folks, Junshan Wubao has been greatly changed in your hands. I dare to conclude that even if Wang Zhong were alive, he would not be able to find a way up the mountain."

"With this Wubao, we commoners who are struggling to survive in troubled times have a place to survive. The wheat we have grown so hard, the linen weaved, and the houses we have built will never be easily used again.

Take away.”

Wei Shi's two sentences did not contain gorgeous words or empty promises, but they made Wang En, Zhong Lin and other country men's eyes turn red and their bodies tremble slightly with excitement.

"Did you all hear what Brother Shi said? What are you still doing in a daze? Keep working, no one is allowed to be lazy." Father Chen wiped the corners of his eyes and said to everyone.

"Work, work, let's compete today to see who is better."

"Let's compete, who is afraid of whom? Wang Dalang, you have grown taller for nothing and have no strength."

...

The words of the villagers made Wei Shi's heart warm.

After arriving in Neixiang County, Lou Gui, Wei Yan and others successively advised Wei Shi to spend more time getting close to prestigious scholars and to reuse those outstanding warriors.

As for the farmers, villagers and craftsmen in the countryside, it is enough to treat them unkindly.

But Wei Shi didn't think so in his heart.

He could not forget that it was the Zhong family who helped him and Wei Xiao'e from time to time, which allowed them to survive after losing their parents.

He could not forget that Zhang Erni, Chen Xiaonan, and Aunt Han stood firmly at the door of the Wei family's yard, helping Han Qiang block the harassment of Cai Guang and other rogues, so that he could go to move reinforcements with peace of mind.

People should never forget their origins.

People cannot be dishonest.

This was the principle of Wei Shi's life in his previous life.

At the foot of Junshan Mountain.

Wei Yan led the new field troops to get ready to go. His mission was to go to the border area between Ye County and Neixiang County to find traces of Xiahou Lan's tribe.

Then, Wei Yan will fake a defeat and lure Xiahou Lan into the hinterland of Neixiang County. The next thing will be handed over to Wei Shi to complete.

"Brother Shi Xian, it's so unpleasant to be defeated by a fraud. I, Wei Wenchang, captured Xia Houlan alive in just one battle." Wei Yan was riding on a yellow horse, holding a long black-patterned sword in both hands.

This black pattern knife is exactly the one made by Wei Shi, and it is also Wei Yanzhi's favorite.

These days, he hugs it while sleeping and calls it "Knife Raising".

Wei Shi smiled and consoled him: "Xia Houlan and others are no match for Brother Wen, but Cao's army under his command is elite and has experienced battles for a long time. If the two armies encounter each other, the new field soldiers who have not fought in a battle will probably

There will be losses. When the Prefect’s Mansion counts the results of the battle, it’s hard to say whether it’s a success or a demerit..."

"Oh, what can you do if you are a villain? This time, Yan will listen to brother Shi Xian." When Wei Yan heard this, a hint of displeasure appeared on his maroon face.

Bo, the governor of Xinye, was Liu Yan's man. Wei Yan had been at odds with him over the previous invasion of the country, so it would not be a good thing if he was targeted by Liu Yan because of the damage on the battlefield.

Wei Shi watched Wei Yan lead his troops away with a knowing smile on his face.

He could clearly remember that although it was Wei Yan's first time to do this trick, he would become more and more skilled in the future. In the end, Wei Yan would become an expert at deceiving and lure the enemy without any flaws.

In May of the seventh year of Jian'an.

Under the guidance of the local bandit Wang Xian, Cao's general Xia Houlan led a partial division into Neixiang County in the west of Xinye. Along the way, Cao's army defeated Liu Bei's army and Wei Yan's troops in a row, and their momentum was unparalleled.

On May 11th, Neixiang County was captured by Cao's army. Wei Shi, the county lieutenant, led the defeated troops to retreat to Junshan, using the mountain as a danger to wait for reinforcements.

During this period, Houyin, a local bandit, was lured by Xia Houlan and led his bandits out of Funiu Mountain to raid and harass various parts of the inner countryside.

...

In Xinye City.

News of Cao's army's surprise attack on Neixiang spread quickly.

When Mi Zhen learned the news at General Zuo's Mansion, she was so shocked that her body went limp and her eyes became dizzy.

Wei Shi, the young man who once brought her a surprise, was gone... When Liu Yan went to issue the conquest order, if she could have stopped him, the situation would have been completely different.

"Han Qiang, Yu Niang, you must take care of yourself. Alas, it's all my fault for being too weak. Liu Yan, Liu Weishuo, and Brother Zhong, you have gone too far. Why can't you tolerate others?"

In Wei Shi, she saw a confident and calm young man with many new ideas and ideas, and she saw the love of the people of Yushuwan Village for him.

In Han Qiang, she saw a virtuous, polite, hard-working peasant bride, and her longing and yearning for future life.

Now, all these beautiful things may no longer exist.

Thinking of this, Mi Zhen felt extremely sad in her heart.

...

In front of Bowang Slope, Liu Bei's army camp.

When Liu Bei, who was marching from Wancheng, via Bowangpo, to Ye County, heard the news, he was furious. After carefully examining the silk map, his expression changed drastically.

He was about to fight Cao Jun's general Xiahou Dun, but he didn't want to catch a fire in the backyard. If the food route was cut off, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Wei Wenchang, this is so disappointing. I thought that Xia Houlan, a mere Xiahoulan, would definitely not be a match for Wenchang." In front of military advisor Xu Shu, Liu Bei's disappointment was palpable.

Xu Shu was a counselor recruited by Liu Bei after he arrived in Jingzhou. Because of his resourcefulness and wisdom, he was respected as a military advisor by Liu Bei.

"My lord, from my humble opinion, the situation is not that bad. The military report said that Wei Shi retreated from Junshan and defended according to the danger. This shows that the Neixiang soldiers are still capable of fighting and have not been defeated yet."

"Now, the battle of Bowangpo is imminent. Generals Guan, Zhang, and Zhao all have their own tasks. Any further adjustments may expose our army's intentions. Therefore, I think it's better to wait a little longer, maybe there will be some.

A surprise happens..."
