Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

All the affairs of the Qin family army have been on the right track, and the soldiers of several large battalions are practicing in full swing every day. The villagers no longer have to worry about being harassed by robbers, and they work in the fields with peace of mind.

Early in the morning, Qin Feng sat in the wide tent of the Chinese army, stretched his waist, and ate breakfast very comfortably. I was busy enough during this time, but seeing that Qin Jiajun was developing according to his expectations day by day, I felt very comfortable.

Young Master Yuan and Mo Bing were not there. Qin Feng knew that Yuan Yun must have gone to the village again to fool around with those big girls and little daughters-in-law. He knew Yuan Yun and knew that this guy naturally liked to drill into women's piles, but his essence was not bad, and he wouldn't do anything out of the ordinary, so he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

The Mo Bing Shenji Camp has the most things, and it has been so busy that it has barely touched the ground in the past month. I guess the cat is still drawing drawings of his mechanism in the tent. This guy is indeed a master of the Mo family's tricks. In just one month, he designed a variety of delicate and vicious portable weapons for the scouts and assassin squads of his Shenji Battalion. There are powerful hidden arrows, vicious flying needles hidden in the soles of shoes, and catapult short knives that can suddenly fly off the hilt... Everything can kill people in an instant, and Qin Feng's scalp is numb. I feel that such a squad is simply a nightmare for the enemy. He was glad that this team was in his own Qin family's army, not in the barbarian army.

......

The off-the-books sergeant brought a letter, saying that it was sent by a messenger from Yecheng.

Qin Feng opened it and saw that it was a letter from the county guard's mansion. The letter said that three days later would be the fiftieth birthday of Lord Huang Hong, the county guard. Huang Hong was very happy to hear that the Qin family army had defeated the Xie Jiazhai bandits, and wanted to meet Qin Feng and reward the newly established Qin family army by the way.

said that it was a reward for the Qin family, but Qin Feng understood it in his heart. This county keeper is nothing more than knowing that he has made a windfall in Xiejiazhai, and he wants to use his birthday to knock on the bamboo pole.

Now the Qin family's army is indeed making a bit of a big noise in the Northern Underworld. not only leveled Xie Jiazhai, but also recruited 2,000 soldiers with great fanfare, and it stands to reason that he should indeed inform the county guard. After all, Zhao's decree clearly stipulates that although the township army is a spontaneous organization, it also needs to be supervised by the government. Moreover, there is an upper limit to the number of township troops, which can only reach two thousand at most. Beyond this limit, the government can accuse you of the great sin of gathering a crowd to rebel. But if you have a good relationship with the county keeper, and he turns a blind eye, things will be easy to do. Next, to deal with the fierce barbarians, only two thousand soldiers are far from enough, and expanding the army is the next work that Qin Feng must carry out.

Yuan Yun and Mo Bing were busy, so Qin Feng asked Zhang Tianliang to prepare 10,000 taels of silver tickets to go around Yecheng with him.

Yecheng is one of the only two big cities in the Northern Underworld County, and it is also the seat of the county guard, which can be regarded as the political and cultural center of the entire Northern Underworld County. Qin Feng had never been to such a prosperous capital since he joined the army seven years ago. After entering the city, he wandered around with Zhang Tianliang for a day and bought a lot of clothes and jewelry for Qin Shuang at home. Zhang Tianliang also brought a lot of things to Qin Yu.

That night, the two found a post station to live in, and planned to go to the county guard mansion the next day to pay their respects.

At ten points after the third watch, Qin Feng was awakened by the soft sound of tiles on the roof. He has been on the battlefield for many years, and his vigilance is very high, even if he sleeps, he has one eye open.

There were night walkers on the roof, and Qin Feng picked up the "Xingchen" long sword he borrowed from Yuan Yun and pushed open the window and jumped out.

Night walkers are basically lone thieves. Now Qin Feng is particularly interested in robbers. Since he made a fortune by copying Xie Jiazhai, as long as he heard the word robber, his eyes lit up. In his opinion, there is another way to call the word robber, which can be called silver. As long as they are robbers, they are definitely rich people. Robbing robbers has become the thing that Qin Feng yearns for the most in recent times.

The moon is bright and the stars are thin, and Yecheng is shrouded in a thin layer of mist. The city is indeed huge, and under the cold moonlight, countless pavilions and glazed roofs stretch endlessly until the end of the sight.

A petite black shadow flew and jumped on the glazed roof paved with tiles, and it was already far away in a few ups and downs.

Qin Feng's eyes were poisonous, and he could see at a glance through the moonlight that this black shadow was actually Shi Ling'er who he had met in the Hero's Tomb two months ago.

"How could this little girl be here. He was also dressed as a night walker. Qin Feng was a little puzzled. He has a good impression of Shi Ling'er. Although the two have only been together for two days. But in the hero Otsuka, who was born and died together, they can already be regarded as friends of life and death. Moreover, the silk scarf that Shi Ling'er silently left behind when she left moved Qin Feng very much, and it is still in his arms.

Qin Feng knew that Shi Ling'er was a warlock, and the Five Elements Spell was more powerful, but the real kung fu was more ordinary. Seeing that she was wearing a night dress alone, as if she was tracking someone, she was afraid that the little girl would not be able to cope with it, so she followed all the way.

The two of them jumped and ran on the roof in the moonlight, and came to the side of a deep mansion compound.

Shi Ling'er stopped on the courtyard wall of the compound and looked around. Soon she also saw Qin Feng behind her. Xiaogu Liang had a surprised and joyful expression on her face. smiled and beckoned to Qin Feng, signaling Qin Feng to follow him.

Under the hazy moonlight, the little girl's hair swayed gently in the wind, her eyes were like autumn water, and her lips were as beautiful as the fairy in the painting who did not eat the fireworks of the world. Qin Feng looked a little stupid. It took a long time before he came back to his senses, and he jumped and followed.

The courtyard was pitch black, with only a faint light in the middle hall. The two jumped on the roof, lightly uncovered the glazed tiles and looked down.

A tall giant, wrapped in a black cloak, and a middle-aged man in a brocade robe were talking in a low voice.

The voices of the two were very low, but Qin Feng and Shi Ling'er were directly above their heads, and they heard what they said clearly.

Listening to this, Qin Feng's face became grim.

From what he said, it could be heard that these two people were from the Demon Sect. The man in brocade is the helmsman of the Demon Sect's rudder in the Northern Underworld, and the giant is the Demon Sect's envoy from the capital.

Originally, Qin Feng, a gang like the Demon Sect, didn't care, and it had nothing to do with him. But the content of the conversation between the two was too amazing, and it turned out to be to assassinate the county keeper on the occasion of the 50th birthday of the county keeper.

And listening to the meaning of the giant, the reason why he wanted to assassinate the county guard was because the barbarian army was about to cross the Wei River into the territory of the Northern Underworld County in the near future. Huang Hong, the commander of Beiming County, was the prime minister of Wei in the imperial court. And Prime Minister Wei Cheng, the eldest prince Zhao Hong, and the commander of the Black Flag Army, Qi Yun, are all the main battle faction. When the barbarians entered, Huang Hong would definitely stand on the side of Prime Minister Wei and lead the defenders of the Northern Hell to resist desperately. Therefore, it is necessary to assassinate Huang Hong to clear the way for the barbarian army to enter the Northern Underworld County.

The man in brocade was a little hesitant to assassinate Huang Hong, thinking that it was not a trivial matter to assassinate the head of a county, and if he didn't get it right, he would cause big trouble. But the giant didn't care, and told the man in brocade. Don't talk about a small county guard, now the main battle forces in the Zhao Dynasty have been almost cleaned up by them. Including Qi Yun, the elder of the Three Dynasties, also let them get into the prison. Only Prime Minister Wei and the eldest prince Zhao Hong were left struggling to support.

The more Qin Feng listened, the more frightened he became, Marshal Qi Yun's imprisonment turned out to be related to the Demon Sect. And it seems that the breadth of the implications is appalling. A Jianghu sect can actually control the political situation in the DPRK and China, and put the elders of the three dynasties into the prison, how much power do they have. In addition, why did these people help the barbarians to invade Zhao? Listening to their conversations, it was obvious that they wanted to eradicate all the forces of Zhao that wanted to oppose the barbarian army. The barbarians invaded, and the entire northern territory of Zhao was devastated, and what benefits could these people in the rivers and lakes get. Qin Feng really couldn't figure it out.
