(Two in one. Let me tell you that I have little talent and knowledge, and there may be flaws in the plot, writing, character, etc., which may make some brothers feel that they are not to your taste. I can only say sorry. I will not force you to stay or leave.

"Hahaha. How about it? Little dog, do you think you can win with strength just because you are young and strong? I will teach you today what it means to be strong when you are old." Qin Changhe laughed loudly.
Before the laughter stopped, the sword light came again. After that, Qin Changhe's sword skills were agile, and the sword flashed all over Mu Buping's body like a snake. Mu Buping could only parry the opponent's attack. After a dozen moves, he was already angry.
He was panting and sweating like rain. On the one hand, it was due to killing the horse. The sword was heavy and it was very difficult to swing and block; on the other hand, it was due to the fierce oppression of Qin Changhe's swordsmanship. After more than ten moves, Mu Buping's calves and arms were
His left wrist and left shoulder were hit one after another. Blood flowed from the wounds, and he soon became a bloody man.
"Mu Buping, give in. If you give in, I might be able to spare your life. After all, I want to be on good terms with Luoyan Valley for the sake of the overall situation, and I don't want to kill you." Qin Changhe said with a sneer while holding on to his hands.
Mu Buping did not answer, but tried his best to parry the opponent's offensive, roaring repeatedly, like a mad tiger. He suddenly slashed out with his sword, almost hitting Qin Donghe, and Qin Donghe was so scared that he broke into a cold sweat.
"Why bother? Why do you have to force me to kill you? You can't get revenge. If you want to get revenge, you have to practice kung fu for twenty years. I advise you not to force me." Qin Donghe said angrily.
"Old thief, today either you die or I die. You and I can only live alone." Mu Buping roared angrily.
"Okay, then I'll make it happen for you." Qin Donghe's eyes were full of fierceness, and his long sword turned into a cold light and slashed down on Mu Buping's face. The sword was fast and hard, Qin Donghe had already thought about it
As for the last move, if Mu Buping swung his sword across the crossbar, he would quickly change his move and turn the slash into a stab, aiming straight for Mu Buping's throat. It would be difficult for him to parry. And the opponent had to parry this move.
However, Qin Donghe miscalculated. Mu Buping did not parry, but moved half a foot laterally and chopped the horse with his hand. The sword did not have time to turn aside, so he only used the back of the sword to hit Qin Donghe's chest hard. Both sides were injured and died together.
Play style.
"Are you looking for death?" Qin Donghe cursed in shock.
"Hehehehehe!" Mu Buping bared his teeth and smiled, his teeth were covered with blood and his mouth was full of blood. The situation was very scary.
The next moment, Qin Donghe's long sword fell, and Mu Buping's left arm fell by the root, and the sharp blade directly removed his left arm. Amidst Mu Buping's beast-like roar, his horse-killing sword
It also struck Qin Donghe firmly on the chest side. Even with armor as protection, Qin Donghe felt a sharp pain in his chest, almost suffocating. He also heard the terrifying sound of broken bones. Qin Donghe
I know, it was my ribs that were broken.
Mu Buping just traded an arm for several of his ribs. This man was probably crazy.
Blood gushed out from Mu Buping's severed arm, and his face instantly turned pale. But he did not fall. After succeeding in the blow, he used his last strength to raise his knife and slash at Qin Donghe, who was spitting blood from his mouth. This
The knife was probably the worst one Mu Buping had ever made in his life. It had no strength, was not fast, and was slow and powerless. Even an ordinary person could easily dodge it.
Qin Donghe is not an ordinary person. But now he is more ordinary than an ordinary person. If it were normal times, Qin Donghe could easily avoid this knife. But at this moment, he failed to avoid it.
Because when he wanted to turn sideways to avoid the knife, the broken ribs in his chest were in severe pain, making him unable to move at all. So, he could only watch the horse-cutting sword. The knife struck him with a thud.
Although there is no strength on the top of the head, just the weight of the horse-cutting knife itself and the sharpness of the horse-cutting knife are enough to cut off Qin Donghe's head.
"How could this happen?" Qin Donghe said blankly, and immediately black blood flowed out from his bun, like a stream, flowing all over his face. His body also fell to the ground.
.
Everyone was stunned as they watched this lightning-like scene, watching Qin Donghe cut off Mu Buping's arm with a sword, and watching Mu Buping hit Qin Donghe's head with a sword. The air on the battlefield seemed to freeze.
generally.
Mu Buping struggled to withdraw his horse and chop the horse. He put the knife on the ground and knelt on one knee, his body trembling continuously. "Dad, I have avenged you...hahaha." Mu Buping suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. When the laughter stopped,
, the body has fallen to the ground.
Lin Jue, Gao Muqing and others were also stunned on the spot, but Lin Jue quickly woke up and shouted in a deep voice, "Hurry and save people."
Several Luoyan Army soldiers rushed forward and carried Mu Buping and the broken arm back. The military doctor stepped forward to check his breathing. Mu Buping was already breathless. He simply bandaged the broken arm and quickly carried it back.
Copycat treatment.
Lin Jue and Gao Muqing quickly stepped forward, inspected Qin Donghe's body, and found that Qin Donghe had indeed died. Although the knife did not split his head in half, it had already hit his brain, and he could no longer die.
died.
Gao Muqing swung his sword and chopped off Qin Donghe's head. He held the bun in his hand and shouted loudly to the soldiers of the Black Wind Village who were standing in a daze in front of him: "Qin Donghe is dead, you put him down immediately."
Surrender with your sword, if you continue to persist in your obsession, you will be killed without mercy."
After saying that, Gao Muqing raised his hand, and his gray head rotated in the air, throwing out a stream of black blood, which fell into the crowd of Black Wind Village soldiers with a pop. The Black Wind Village soldiers had already suffered from liver and gallbladder splitting, and now our own side
The leader of the village is dead, so why resist? Is it true that he will accompany Qin Donghe to death?
When Liang Qi and others rushed forward with the Luoyan Army, more than a thousand Black Wind Village soldiers had already dropped their weapons and knelt down to surrender. The Luoyan Army soldiers tied them together with ropes like piercing grasshoppers and escorted them away.
Watch over the valley.
…
As the spring sun set in the west, Lin Jue and Gao Muqing stood on the hillside, looking at the soldiers of the Luoyan Army who were busy cleaning the battlefield in the valley. The situation on the battlefield was really terrible, with corpses strewn all over the place. There were countless casualties on both sides in this battle.
Thousands of people, considering the size of the village in Funiu Mountain, it was already a big battle.
"It's over, the nightmare is finally over. Husband, thank you. If you hadn't come back in time to plan, I don't know what the outcome of all this would have been." Gao Muqing looked at the scene in the valley and sighed softly.
Lin Jue stretched out his hand to hold her hand and said with a smile: "If you say such things to me, you are out of touch. I am also a member of the cottage, and you are my wife. Of course I want to come back. You are right.
, all this is over. After this battle, the pattern in Funiu Mountain has been decided, and our Luoyan Valley stronghold will unify Funiu Mountain. From now on, there will no longer be any other strongholds in Funiu Mountain, only our Luoyan Valley stronghold."
Gao Muqing frowned and said, "You mean, we are going to take over all the territory in Funiu Mountain?"
Lin Jue smiled and said: "What? Don't you want to?"
Gao Muqing smacked his lips and said, "It's so troublesome. I just want to stay in Luoyan Valley. What's the use of other places?"
Lin Jue laughed dumbly and said: "You are really not the material to be the leader of a large village. This is an opportunity that many people dream of, but you find it troublesome. Now that we don't unify Funiu Mountain, are we going to let all the strongholds re-emerge? Maybe something is wrong.
If someone like Qin Donghe appears again, won't there be constant disputes? I have worked so hard to plan this war, so many people have died and so much money has been spent. Is this the result we want to get? "
Gao Muqing smiled bitterly and said: "I don't have any ambitions. I just want to be happy with you. Who wants to be the leader of a big village in the mountains?"
Lin Jue smiled and said: "You can't do it even if you don't want to. They only obey you and no one can replace you."
Gao Muqing said: "Who said that? If you want to be the leader of the village, they will all be convinced. To be honest, they respect you more than they respect me now."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Your husband is respected by others, aren't you happy?"
"Of course I'm happy. I mean, it would be great if you could be the leader of this big village. Then I could ignore everything. But... I know this is impossible. What kind of punishment officer are you now?
You're young, how could you go into the mountains and become a bandit? Wouldn't it ruin your future?" Gao Muqing said leisurely.
Lin Jue pulled her to sit on a rock and said softly: "Mu Qing, you understand the truth. I am definitely not biased against copycats. It's just that you and I both shoulder the responsibility. You have to be responsible for the brothers, and I have nothing but this
In addition, I have to be responsible for my Lin family and the people around me. In fact, we are all helpless because we are not strong enough to control our own destiny. Maybe one day, we will be strong enough to control our own destiny.
Then there will be better choices, but not now. Don't think too much and run the village well. The stronger Funiu Mountain is, the more freedom you will have to choose. Otherwise, it will be the same as before, struggling to survive everywhere, going through life and death, and still surviving.
What are you talking about being free and at ease?"
Gao Muqing nodded slowly and said, "I understand, I'm just talking."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "After we unify Funiu Mountain, we can control Funiu Mountain's external behavior. In the past, the villages in Funiu Mountain disturbed the surrounding areas and made a lot of noise, so the imperial court would be prepared and encircled and suppressed from time to time. We will change our strategy in the future.
I want to make a fortune in silence. Follow the model of Luoyan Valley and become self-sufficient without going out to cause trouble and plunder. In this way, I can live in peace with the court. When the situation eases, I can also go in and out of the mountain village more conveniently. I can come to the mountain village when I have nothing to do.
Wouldn't it be nice to meet you?"
Gao Muqing said softly: "You are right. However, after the fierce fighting in Funiu Mountain, our strength has been greatly reduced. If the officers and soldiers attack, our stronghold will not be able to resist them."
Lin Jue nodded and said: "Yes, so the matter is not over yet. The crisis is still there and we should not take it lightly. There are several things to be done now. The first is to defeat all the strongholds and surrender. Although today's battle was a great victory,
But there are also many people who have escaped. After these people return to the strongholds, they will soon become a stubborn disease. They need to be defeated one by one and capture them all. The stubborn resisters will be killed without mercy, and they must not leave the root of the resurgence.
The second is to reform the surrendered soldiers. My opinion is that all the surrendered soldiers should be put into labor reform in Luoyan Valley. Those who are active in reforming will be exempted from their guilt and recruited into the Luoyan Army to enrich the military strength. At the same time, young and strong soldiers must be recruited.
The common people join the army. Rapidly expand the strength of the Luoyan Army to prepare for the attack by officers and soldiers. The third step is to establish the Luoyan Valley branch, select trustworthy brothers to be the branch leaders, copy the Luoyan Valley model, and start war production. Use Luoyan Valley as the base.
The backing can provide food and material support and promote their self-sufficiency. My idea is to set up four branch villages in the southeast and northwest to guard the access to the mountain, build arrow tower fortifications, and defend against encirclement and suppression by officers and soldiers. In terms of village construction, we must build a few more villages.
A granary like Luoyan Valley must also have the ability to manufacture weapons, arrows, and armor. The training of the Luoyan Army cannot be relaxed. The faster it expands, the less we can relax. You are like this time because we have run out of arrows.
We had no manufacturing capacity, so we paid a high price. If we hadn't had more than two thousand iron-tipped arrows, we might have had to break the dam and use the power of the flood. That would have been a lose-lose situation, and the situation would have been even more serious.
It’s out of control.”
Gao Muqing nodded and said: "When you put it like that, there are really a lot of things about copycats. I thought it was over just now, so I could breathe a sigh of relief."
Lin Jue said with a smile: "Funiu Mountain is also a small world. Although the sparrow is small and has all the internal organs, it still requires a lot of effort if it wants to run smoothly. But don't be too tired. To know how to delegate power, you only need to
Grasp those who do things, don't do everything yourself. Those brothers are all trustworthy people, don't worry about it. As the saying goes, don't be suspicious when you employ people and don't use them when you are suspicious. As long as you think you can trust them, don't be suspicious. This way you will be very happy.
Relax. Of course, everything must be based on the "Copyright General Regulations" and the various regulations originally formulated. If anyone touches these, don't be lenient. Even if they are brothers in life and death, they cannot condone it. Otherwise, chaos will occur.
.Favours belong to favors, rules belong to rules, favors can be given outside the law, and there will be no favoritism within the law. Do you understand?"
Gao Muqing looked at Lin Jue with a wry smile and said, "Oh, I'm so tired. It sounds like I have a big head."
Lin Jue laughed, stood up and said: "Let's not talk about this for now. Let's go back to the village. We won a decisive victory. We have to have a big banquet tonight to reward the brothers. We will talk about these things later.
"
Gao Muqing happily agreed, stood up, and climbed the stairs side by side with Lin Jue, heading towards the lush Luoyan Valley Dazhai.
…
At night, the lights on the east campus of Dazhai in Luoyan Valley were brightly lit, and the pine fire made the bonfires and lanterns as bright as day. A grand celebration banquet started lively in the evening. The people slaughtered the pigs and sheep they had brought up the mountain and sacrificed them.
Reward the Luoyan Army and celebrate these heroes who risked their lives to protect their safety and relieved the crisis of destroying their homes.
The ban on alcohol in the military was naturally lifted, and the village had its own wine. Although the taste was far different from the wine outside, this victory wine was always sweet and intoxicating, and tasted better than any other wine.
That night, everyone in the village drank the wine of victory, sang and danced, everyone laughed and rejoiced. The pain, depression and despair of the past two months were vented at this moment.
No one can imagine the pressure that everyone in the village has experienced before. Not to mention the Luoyan Army's bloody battle, the people actually also suffered. When the enemy attacked, they had to abandon their homes in the valley and come to live in the village. Every day
The fighting at the foot of the mountain would bring all kinds of bad news, which put great mental pressure on them. When the bodies of the Luoyan soldiers who died in the battle every day were carried back to the stronghold, they were all silent, sad and desperate. Some of the dead soldiers
They were the sons of the common people in the cottage. Some of them married common people's women under the policy of the cottage, and some of them helped the common people by carrying water and food on weekdays. They were all inextricably linked to the common people. They died one by one,
This feeling of panic and despair is indescribable.
In fact, later on, no one believed that the mountain stronghold could be defended. With more than half of the Luoyan Army's casualties, the atmosphere in the mountain stronghold had become solid and depressing to the extreme. A small spark could make people collapse. Under the high cliff to the west, there were several common people
They jumped off a cliff and committed suicide because they could no longer bear the repressive fear and despair and would rather die. Tens of thousands of people lived in this kind of chaos, fear and despair, and they could not see hope for the future.
However, the military advisor returned to the mountain and took action. When the battle was going on at the foot of Jiming Mountain, all the people stood on the hillside and looked at the situation on the battlefield. They knew that it was related to the life and death of the village, and also related to their personal life and death.
and the future. They had no hope at all. Some people even secretly said that the military advisor was fooling around and wanted the soldiers of the Luoyan Army to die. There is no way to fight head-on. Isn't this an egg against a stone? But the result of the war was a great gain.
With a complete victory, the military strategist led the Luoyan Army to defeat the powerful enemy in one fell swoop, completely ending more than two months of suffering. All the worries and fears in the hearts of the people were instantly cleared. They soared into the sky like a skylark.
The village has been saved, and the home in the valley has been saved. Everything will be back on track, and even the farming season will not be delayed. Is there anything more joyful than this?
Needless to say, the liveliness of this night was not to mention. The common people came forward to toast the soldiers of the Luoyan Army. With the help of Qin Chuncao, the leader of the five villages in the Luoyan Valley, more than a dozen marriages were made that night. It was truly a fusion of military and civilian affairs.
.
Lin Jue and Gao Muqing had the most people coming to toast, especially Lin Jue. Everyone understood that this battle was planned by the military advisor. Without the military advisor, there would be no such thing. Therefore, everyone who came to Lin Jue was respectful and sincere.
Worship. Many people kowtowed to Lin Jue and thanked the military advisor for saving all this.
Lin Jue was chatting and laughing, and everyone was welcome to drink until the glass was dry. Both Gao Muqing and Bai Bing were worried that he was drunk. Bai Bing secretly poured boiled water into Lin Jue's wine jar, but Gao Muqing saw it, but Gao Muqing gave it to him for the first time.
Bai Bing gave an approving look, and the two of them actually thought of going to the same place. Even so, Lin Jue was still drunk.
The celebration banquet lasted until midnight. The people held torches and prepared to go down the mountain with their families. They were going back to their homes in the valley, and they couldn't wait to live a stable life. The drunken Lin
Jue Jue and Gao Muqing stood at the gate of Dazhai to see off the people. Every citizen who passed by Lin Jue and Gao Muqing looked at them with gratitude, said some words of gratitude, and went down the mountain happily. The Luoyan Army soldiers raised their
They stood on the mountain road with torches to illuminate them. The long line of torches stretched from the mountain village to the valley.
"It's great. I never expected that there would be such a moment. It's really a mixture of emotions. Husband, I really want to cry and laugh." Looking at the leaving people, Gao Muqing sighed softly.
.
"Mu Qing, this is the meaning of our struggle. When you see their smiles, see their heartfelt gratitude, see the smiling faces of the children, and see that everyone can live a peaceful life,
You will have a sense of pride in giving them all these wonderful things. Although you shed blood, tears and sweat, even though it is difficult to endure the hardships, at this moment, you will find that everything is worth it. This kind of fulfillment and happiness is incomparable.
, this is the goal and meaning." Lin Jue said with a smile.
Gao Muqing nodded slowly and said, "You are right. Now I feel that my life is fulfilling, happy and meaningful."
Lin Jue burped and looked at her sideways and said, "Having said that, your life before was meaningless? For example, when you were with me, didn't you feel happy?"
Gao Muqing said angrily: "That's different."
Lin Jue stretched and said, "It's getting late, should we take a rest? I want to take a hot bath and spend a happier night with you. How about we take a mandarin duck bath?"
Gao Muqing blushed furiously and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? Let others hear... How can there be such a big bath bucket?"
Lin Jue laughed loudly. Mu Qing was very cute. She was only worried that the barrel was not big enough.
