The Chongyu Zhao family is a very ambitious family.

In other words, Zhao Hui, the old head of the family who has passed away, was an ambitious man.

During his lifetime, he taught by words and deeds early on, instilling his expectations into the next generation of family heads.

He does not agree with the path of handing over the secret realm in exchange for wealth.

In his opinion, the Zhao family has escaped poverty, and what they should seek is a generation of prosperity, not a generation of wealth.

Therefore, he asked martial arts masters to teach the young men of the clan and lead them to hunt down the invading bandits.

After they have gained courage through several bloody battles, they will select the most capable ones and bring them into the secret realm to attack.

But the reality is very cruel. After the battle, they were killed and injured, and they were not even able to kill the first batch of demons in the secret realm.

At this time, it was time to hand over the secret realm to the court in exchange for wealth.

But a young man from the clan accidentally fell into the water while transporting goods, and when he narrowly escaped death, he glimpsed the secret realm of Turtle Mansion.

The temptation of two secret realms and family heirlooms for generations was too great. Zhao Hui finally chose to provide enlightenment for the Lianwu bandits, and the two parties formed an alliance to jointly attack the secret realm of Turtle Mansion.

Since the Zhao family was a businessman and the young men of the family were selling goods in many cities, Zhao Hui was not afraid of serial gangsters plotting against him.

At worst, he risked his life and asked his sons from other places to turn over secret information to court officials.

Relying on this fierce force, the Zhao family formed an alliance and cooperated with the serial gangsters.

One of them is a businessman, the other is a bandit, and they constantly enlighten the bandits in the secret realm through various means.

Finally, the chain of gangsters became large and they had a group of cannon fodder available, but Zhao Hui passed away in a hurry.

The new head of the family, Zhao Gong, has his father's thoughts but not his father's methods.

He could only barely maintain the alliance, but it was difficult to mobilize the serial gangsters to work for him.

And in order to prevent Zhao Gong from giving up his secret realm in exchange for his wealth, the clan elders and serial gangsters were all watching him.

This leaves him with no other option but to become a warrior, guard the place, and share wealth and wealth.

"Uncle Clan, you have also seen that serial gangsters are difficult to control. Can't we really offer the secret realm of Turtle Mansion to seek wealth for a generation?"

"Family Master, this must not be done. The development of the secret realm can bless all our clansmen for generations to come. How much reward can be gained by dedicating the secret realm?

We are only one step away from the nobles, so we must not give up halfway. "

The Zhao family is still urging the Lianwu bandits to attack the secret realm, while Zhou Yuan's troops have already gathered together and begun to besiege the fort.

This move caused some Wu Fort Lords to complain. If Zhou Yuan hadn't randomly selected them, surrounded them and left, the Wu Fort Lords would have gone to the county office to file a complaint.

"Director Qu, why did you return the valuable belongings and only take some food and drinks?"

“We are here to be terrorists, but we cannot really become bandits.

Since the soldiers have surrounded the fort, if they don't collect some things, the fort owner will definitely panic.

So just collect some worthless stuff and put it back on the county office's public accounts and give them tax deductions. "

Zhou Yuan's side went all the way and found nothing unusual in the process of deploying troops to besiege the fort.

But when they approached Zhaojia Fort, the managers in the fort started to get into chaos before they even started to surround them.

"Master, it's not good. A battalion of officers and soldiers came from the west and advanced towards our Wu Fort."

The people in charge of sentry duty were all young men of the same clan whom Zhao Gong trusted. They did not know that they were engaged in the major task of attacking the secret realm. They only knew that they were manipulating bandits to make profits.

Therefore, they were extremely frightened when they saw the officers and soldiers, thinking that the evidence of their crimes had been leaked and that the officers and soldiers were coming to encircle and suppress them.

"What? How could this happen? Please call the clan elders and a few heroes over to discuss the matter."

The discussion in Zhaojiabao is destined to yield no results.

But it also deepened the sense of crisis among the serial dock bandits, making them realize that they could no longer do nothing, otherwise they would be annihilated by the official army sooner or later.

"Master Zhao, don't panic, our hands and feet are very clean, those officers and soldiers are definitely not here to hunt us down.

You first stabilize the army. We will attack the secret realm of Guifu in the next few days and make you a warrior as soon as possible. "

After Zhao Gong received the guarantee from Lianwu Bandit, he suppressed his uneasiness and took the elders of his clan to wait in line outside Wubao.

It's not that he didn't want to escape, it was because once he escaped, his secret would be exposed. Those officers and soldiers would probably choose to attack Wu Bao first and then ask for the reason.

As the military formation with waving flags got closer and closer, the anxiety in Zhao Gong's heart calmed down a lot.

He could see clearly that there were only four to five hundred people coming, and they were all infantry, with only a few cavalry.

In the Wu Fort behind him, there were nearly fifty serial dock bandits and more than twenty good horses. If there was a fight, the possibility of breaking through the military formation and escaping was extremely high.

Zhao Gong was thinking about how to deal with the officers and soldiers and how to escape.

Suddenly seeing changes in the military formation, three teams were divided and surrounded the other three directions of Wu Fort.

This sight scared him to death, and the uncles behind him were so frightened that their legs and feet were weak. If they were not protected by their nephews, they might have collapsed to the ground.

"If you don't want to become the head of the family, you can close the fort and fight. Books often say that surrounding three and missing one will discourage you.

These officers and soldiers didn't even give us a way to get discouraged. They would probably surround us and kill us all. "

"What nonsense are you talking about? At this time, we must not be chaotic. If we dare to mess up now, the soldiers from Chongyu Camp will come to support us in less than half a day.

Now there are four to five hundred people surrounding the fort. It doesn't look difficult to deal with it, but when chaos breaks out, the number of soldiers will only accumulate. "

At the critical moment, Zhao Gong, the head of the family, still needs to make a decision.

Under his order, the serial dock bandits inside the fort were ready for battle, but outside the fort it was peaceful, with no sign of desperate measures.

Da, da, da...

A steed carrying a heroic general approached the south gate of Wubao, and the soldiers accompanying him quickly formed a battle array.

In the eyes of the soldiers, this was an exercise; in the eyes of the Zhao family, it was more like an iron-blooded encirclement and suppression of evidence of crime.

"General, why did you surround my Wubao? We are short of food and clothing after marching here.

Please allow us to show our kindness and offer the food in the fort to you."

"The fort owner is joking. How can we be short of food and clothing when marching on our own territory?

I just heard from the spies in the camp that some Wubao were in cahoots with the bandits, hiding the bandits' tracks, selling their stolen goods, and supplying them with food and grass."

Looking at Zhou Yuan's serious expression, Zhao Gong sweated profusely.

He kept cursing the three serial bandits who escaped back in his heart. Didn't you say that you were clean from beginning to end? If you were really clean, how could you attract officers and soldiers to come here?

"General, it's unfair. There are endless bandits in the coastal towns. We live in a fortress to make a living.

My Zhao family has been clean for generations and has never done anything illegal. If you don't believe it, you can go into the fortress for a detailed investigation."

It is impossible to enter the fortress. Zhou Yuan doesn't know how many serial bandits are hiding in the fortress.

It is not a good idea to fight with those serial bandits in the semi-militarized Wu Fortress with dense buildings.

His purpose is to put pressure on him and take the opportunity to mark a few more targets with the ghost spell, and then find the direction of the target's movement to find the entrance to the hidden secret realm.

Therefore, after just a few routine interrogations and letting a team of soldiers go in to check, he led the troops to the next Wu Fortress.

"General, can this really lead out the hidden bandits?"

"Maybe it can. Let the word go out that the forts surrounded today are all suspected targets in the camp.

Give them some reaction time, and someone will always be unable to resist moving."
