However, Yilan Kingdom's evil ambitions still exist. It even colluded with some bandit strongholds in Liuguan Town to harass and persecute people living in the border areas, causing them to suffer terribly.

These bandits even provided financial support to the Yilan Kingdom, ruthlessly plundering the people's property and aiding the enemy country.

Fortunately, the young general discovered the real reason why these bandits were rampant in time. Otherwise, if these bandits were allowed to continue to run rampant, it would be a disaster not only for the people living in the border areas, but also for the entire Yuan Dynasty.

During this period, he followed the general to attack these bandits. Among them, the Black Dragon Stronghold of the bandit leader Ma Dahong was the most difficult to attack, as the stronghold was guarded by a large number of people and densely.

As the name suggests, Black Dragon is a place where all you can see is a dense black forest. The mountain roads are rugged and steep. If you are not familiar with it, it is easy to get lost in the dense forest.

Only the members of the village are familiar with the route and will not get lost in the woods.

In addition, they had recently encircled and suppressed many small and medium-sized strongholds, which had long aroused Ma Dahong's vigilance and alertness, so General Zhao was very troubled.

Originally, they received a tip-off that Ma Dahong had a wife and children in the town. Ma Dahong also knew that he had many enemies and was afraid that he would be gone, so he secretly married a wife and kept them hidden, and might not visit them for most of half a year.

This time they were able to obtain this information after their informant in the stronghold spent a lot of effort to gain Ma Dahong's trust.

After much difficulty, they found the person in Liuguan Town. The general wanted to capture him personally, but the woman accidentally ruined their plan, and Ma Dahang also escaped upon hearing the noise.

Liu Feng was filled with hatred whenever he thought about it. He wanted to beat that woman to death. It was so difficult to encircle and suppress Ma Dahong, but just because of that brainless woman, he let him get away.

The plan to capture Ma Dahong failed. General Zhao and they were all very disappointed and angry. As for that nosy woman, she thought that the major general was easy to control, so the major general would let her know the consequences of provoking him.

With such a gem as the county lady by his side, not only General Zhao but even they would look down on such a vulgar woman.

Liu Feng was very disgusted with the woman's behavior. The foreign enemy Yilan Kingdom had a small land area and a small population, but they were smart and had many tricks up their sleeves.

They neither submitted to the Yuan Dynasty nor dared to go to war with it head-on. Instead, they united with some small countries around the Yuan Dynasty to harass the people living in the border areas. It was like a toad jumping on its instep, which made people feel uncomfortable even though it didn't bite.

The Yuan Dynasty was in a mess because of the intrigues among the princes and the life-and-death struggles among their factions, and the supply of food and grass was often unable to keep up.

The princes were extremely selfish and wanted to win over and interfere in military affairs in order to control the army and gain the greatest support for their own seizure of power. Therefore, they dragged their feet in supplying food and fodder in order to gain favor with the general.

It's really abominable!

Only the second prince had a sense of the overall situation. He often took the risk of being feared by his brothers and reported to the emperor in a timely manner to supply food and grass, so that the border could fight hard.

In addition, the Yuan Dynasty had just reached a ceasefire in the war with the barbarians, and the barbarians they forced to sign a fifty-year non-aggression treaty. The entire Yuan Dynasty was in a state of rest and recuperation, so it did not have the time to deal with the Yilan Kingdom and allowed the Yilan Kingdom to jump around.

The main reason was that there were too many small countries like Yilan. The Yuan Dynasty did not pay much attention to the activities of these small countries, but Yilan actually interfered in the succession to the throne of the Yuan Dynasty and bribed Yuan Dynasty merchants to provide them with weapons.

Of course, the Yuan Dynasty could no longer tolerate such things. Some time ago, the general helped the second prince to eliminate the traitor Zhang family in Jiyun City. They also colluded with other merchants from all over the Yuan Dynasty. The second prince is now leading people to solve them one by one.

Thinking of this, Liu Feng hesitated for a moment. For the sake of national affairs, he bowed and asked Xiao Wan, "County Master, I have something to ask you. Was that man just now the guard of your friend? Could you please tell me the identity of your friend?"

Xiao Wan felt relieved when she learned that Xiao Da was fine, and could only wish him success in what he wanted to do.

Hearing Liu Feng suddenly ask her this question, and his expression was very serious, Xiao Wan couldn't help but restrain her expression and replied, "I really don't know where his master is from. He is just a little beggar I took in in the past."

Then she told her about Xiao Da's story. She really didn't know Xiao Da's true identity, but she vaguely guessed that he should be the son of a powerful and wealthy person.

When Liu Feng heard this, his expression became serious. He felt that what the county lord said was true. No matter from which aspect, the county lord had no reason to lie to him.

What's more, the county lady also values ​​the general very much. Her concern does not seem to be fake. She is the general's person. The county lady is so smart that she must realize that her question is not aimless.
