The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

While remaining silent, Jia Daoshi was making various assumptions in his mind.

However, he quickly realized what was happening.

Wait a minute, I should be thinking about how to defend the city of Juebi, why am I worried that the Kushan barbarians will run away?

Thinking of this, Jia Daoshi suddenly had a bold hypothesis: if all 500,000 iron cavalry could be gathered in one place, that would be perfect!

Let alone 70,000!

Even with 50,000 or 30,000 troops, we can wipe out the entire enemy force!

However, they're not stupid; they certainly won't obediently listen to you.

With an army of 500,000, they will surely be divided into several routes to attack the cliff city separately!

Alternatively, one force could be used to hold back the city of Juebi, while another force could be sent to advance into the southwest region of Dajing!

This is highly likely!

Unless, there is a place that is attractive enough to completely captivate their 500,000 troops!

After pondering for a while, Jia Daoshi realized that he still couldn't figure it out.

One of the main reasons is that he doesn't understand this place.

Since that's the case, there's no need to keep thinking about it here. No matter how much you think about it, it's all just wishful thinking. It's better to go to Cliff City and find out what's going on!

Thinking of this, Jia Daoshi hesitated for a moment, then said to Zhou Runfa, "General Zhou, in three days, we will go to Juebi City! We will have a good discussion with the First Prince and Prince Shen!"

Upon hearing this, Chow Yun-fat immediately understood Jia Daoshi's meaning.

Indeed, for such an important matter, we should all sit down together and discuss solutions!

Fortunately, the leader of the Green Turban Army has been executed, otherwise he would have been really worried to death about this matter!

……

On the other hand, the construction of Dujiangyan was in full swing.

Almost all of the Green Turban Army's troops joined the construction of the Dujiangyan Irrigation System and the dredging of the river channels.

In addition, Bao Longxing was indeed a talented person. Under his management, 800,000 dan of grain were distributed to the people in an orderly manner.

Of course, it couldn't be given away for free; only those who participated in the construction of the water conservancy project could receive it based on their work points.

Meanwhile, Jia Daoshi's situation regarding his bride, Xiao Rongyu, is also showing promise.

As expected, the pheasant did not disappoint him, nor did it boast; it truly had the ability!

That said, the mountain stronghold where the pheasant lived was located at the junction of the three kingdoms of Longwu, Kushan, and Dajing.

Although it's within Longwu County, it's not far from Shouchun.

The day after receiving Jia Daoshi's message, escorted by the Four Little Dragons, Jia Miao, Zhang Yishan, and Xie Mengwei, he arrived in Shouchun City with a tall, burly man with a full beard who looked like a bear.

"Master! The pheasant has brought the person as expected!"

Looking at the pheasant kneeling on the ground, Jia Daoshi recalled the scene of their first meeting.

"Jia Tisi, my name is Shanji, the 'ji' in 'jiba'!"

"I am willing to reform and serve the imperial court! I am willing to serve Chief Jia!"

The vows they made are still fresh in everyone's ears, and Shanji has not disappointed Jia Daoshi's expectations.

"Is this the same person from Poison Dragon Stronghold in Poison Dragon Mountain seven years ago?"

Jia Daoshi's gaze returned to the burly man, his face serious.

Pheasant nodded repeatedly: "That's it! It's him! Pheasant can guarantee it with his own head!"

"Are you so sure? Seven years is not a long time, but it's not short either."

Jia Daoshi's expression remained serious.

In this era, travel is slow, and seven years can change a lot.

The pheasant laughed and said, "Master, speaking of which, this is quite a coincidence. Ever since I returned, I have been sweeping through the mountain strongholds of the Longwu Dynasty, preparing to unify the underworld!"

"And then this guy came to us himself, saying he wanted to join us! To prove himself, he even talked about a lot of his achievements," Chicken explained. "I only found out about it because he told me himself."

"So that's how it is. He said it himself?" Jia Daoshi was somewhat surprised. This was truly like a pillow being delivered when one is sleepy, requiring no effort at all.

Pheasant nodded repeatedly: "That's right, it was this guy who said it himself. And after receiving the master's order, I immediately asked some senior figures in the underworld to verify it before I confirmed it. Seven years ago, Poison Dragon Stronghold was a very powerful stronghold, so quite a few people know about it!"

"This is real?"

Jia Daoshi looked at the bearded man again; this matter could not be taken lightly.

So he had to double-check.

The big man looked a little flustered. Despite his tall and burly appearance and fierce look, he was not a tough guy at all.

After the decline of Poison Dragon Stronghold, his livelihood became somewhat difficult. Finally, he heard that a very powerful force had recently emerged, with the momentum to unify the mountain stronghold world. The force was full of experts and was not easy to mess with. After thinking it over for a moment, he decided to go and join them, hoping to make a bright future!

But who would have thought that not long after, before he had even settled into his seat, he was tied up and asked if he was from the Poison Dragon Stronghold.

Seeing that things were going badly, his instinct was to deny it!

But in the end, it was too late. The old brothers who went with him confessed without even thinking!

It's pitiful. The Poison Dragon Stronghold was wiped out seven years ago. He barely survived, but in the end, he still fell because of those three words, "Poison Dragon Stronghold"!

"My lord! I was indeed a member of the Poison Dragon Stronghold, but that was seven years ago. Back then, I was just a cook in the stronghold and knew nothing! Please, my lord, spare my life!"

As the bearded man spoke, he kept kowtowing on the ground, begging for his life, because it seemed that the old grudge from the Poison Dragon Stronghold had come to haunt him.

How could I not panic!

"Master, this guy is incredibly cunning! What cook? He was a trusted confidant of the former leader of Poison Dragon Stronghold. I heard he was quite powerful back then! How dare he lie? He's asking for death!"

The pheasant got angry as soon as it heard this and went up to kick the bearded man.

"Hmph! You think you can fool me now?"

Jia Daoshi's expression gradually turned cold. He casually flicked out a few finger strikes, which landed on several acupoints on the big man's body.

At first, the bearded man didn't feel anything, but soon he was crying out in pain and rolling around on the ground!

"Aaaaaah! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts..."

After only a short while, he was already sweating profusely and his face was deathly pale!

The pheasant standing to the side felt a chill run down its spine upon witnessing this scene!

Good heavens, that's ruthless!

Jia Daoshi, with a cold expression, sat down and began to slowly sip his tea.

He finished drinking the tea in the teacup before unleashing a few more finger strikes to release the pressure points on the bearded man's body!

"Cough...cough..."

The bearded man was panting heavily, his whole body limp on the ground like a lump of mud.
