The sunshine shines brightly, selflessly and generously emitting its heat, giving this vast land infinite vitality.

  However, perhaps it was the old man's oversight and he did not take into account the carrying capacity of all species on earth.

  So, although it's already hot enough, the ground temperature is still rising.

  "My grandma, it's scorching hot..."

  A tall and majestic man, like a crane standing among chickens, continuously wiped the sweat on his body as if it were rain, muttering softly to himself. Although he had tried his best to suppress his voice, to people nearby, it still sounded like thunder.

  Geng Yang cautiously glanced at him and immediately withdrew his gaze.

  "Qin Yong, how did you get out? Hurry up and get back in the horse carriage."

  Xu Haifeng's voice rang out at the right time.

  Qin Yong was taken aback, grumbling discontentedly about the terrible weather as he ducked into the carriage behind him, hiding his enviable physique from view.

  "Admire, admire, General Xu is truly a godlike person."

  Gēng Yáng's sincere and genuine way would never dare to shout at Qín Yǒng like that if it were him.

  Even if the real Taiyi saw this big monster, he would still be far away from him. If he wanted to communicate with him, only Xu Haifeng and Jiang Kongming had this skill.

  "It's alright, Brother Qingyang is being polite."

  Xu Haifeng felt a strange and eerie sensation rising up in his mind, unsure whether it was pride or embarrassment, perhaps a bit of both.

  For anyone, having such a brave general under their command is something to be cherished, even if it means getting into trouble. What more can you ask for from Qin Yong, who although hot-headed, has not done anything irreparable?

  Since ten days ago, Xu Haifeng put forward his own requirements in front of Gongyang.

  He returned that night and immediately consulted with the elders, although everyone's opinions were not uniform, but since Geng Yang had already made up his mind, they finally agreed.

  Due to the urgency and secrecy of the matter, on the second day, Geng Yang immediately gathered three hundred clansmen and set off with Xu Haifeng.

  As for Taiyi Zhenren, he was with the Great Elder, notifying the remaining 107 strongholds that his family was in charge, relying on his prestige and personal charm, there would be no worries.

  A troop of three hundred people is indeed a bit less in the war, but the real main force is not these barbarians, they are just some cover-ups, a facade.

  The tenth day arrived, and they finally approached Taiyuan.

  Fortunately for Xu Haifeng, the Xiongnu had just completed their military gathering and were facing off against the Cheng family in Taiyuan, with constant friction between them, a great war was about to break out.

  "Finally caught up."

  This is Xu Haifeng's voice from his inner organs.

  "General Xu, look..."

  Gong Yang suddenly pointed forward and exclaimed.

  Xu Haifeng slowly nodded, long before Gongyang realized it, he had already seen that in front of them was a team of cavalrymen carrying the Cheng family's large flag, stopping their horses at a distance of one arrow. Clearly they were waiting for their arrival.

  "Gēng Yáng brother, this time it's up to you to show your stuff." Xǔ Hǎi Fēng said with a slight smile.

  "Don't worry, I won't let the general down."

  He patted his chest and guaranteed it.

  Xu Haifeng made a hand gesture behind him, and the advancing team immediately stopped.

  He had three strands of whiskers stuck under his chin, looking quite a bit like a literary man, vastly different from his previous image, even if Gu Dao was here, he would never see through it.

  He found it quite amusing, as the Sect Master had his own status and identity. As for these disguises and deceptions, he had always kept a respectful distance. However, since getting to know Jiang Kungming, it seemed that many people had done this before.

  Not to mention Xu Haifeng and Li Mingtang, even the Taizhen True Man had dyed black that beautiful white beard when he was sent to deliver a declaration of war to Caesar.

  Compared with that, this little thing of mine is nothing special.

  He stepped forward and shouted loudly: "Which one of you is from the Cheng family?"

  "Who are you?"

  He didn't answer his question, and instead the newcomer shouted loudly.

  "We are the Southwest Righteous Army... General, please come forward and let's talk."

  The newcomer hesitated for a moment and then rushed up alone on horseback.

  "Good courage." Gēng Yáng gave a slight praise.

  Facing more than 5,000 people with unknown origins, he actually had the guts to come forward alone. If every soldier in the Cheng family has such quality, then this is an iron army that is no less than the five major legions.

  "In the lower Lou army, may I ask who are you all..."

  The southwest region was too vast, and he couldn't tell where this troop came from. However, when he carefully observed the troops for a moment, his face involuntarily turned solemn.

  More than 5,000 people, their faces painted with various colors, looked quite ferocious and frightening. At a glance, he could almost assert that these people were not Han Chinese. Because no Han Chinese would make such a move.

  As the Huns invaded, they had an instinctive aversion to foreigners, and their faces also became somewhat unnatural.

  "Gibberish, nonsensical talk..."

  A string of inexplicable sounds came out of Gongyang's mouth.

  Lu Jun was taken aback, his gaze involuntarily turned to Xu Haifeng, because he was the one who had just spoken in Chinese.

  Xu Haifeng smiled slightly, cupped his hands in greeting and said: "The clan leader says that we are barbarians from the southwest because we yearn for the beauty and richness of the Great Han Dynasty and have come to surrender with sincerity. I heard that the new emperor is gathering the great army of the world here to fight a decisive battle against the Xiongnu people, so we came to assist, please General agree."

  "Barbarian?"

  Lu Jun's eyes had a hidden doubt and hesitation, after half a beat, he finally said: "Please wait for a moment, Lu Jun will report to the superior."

  "Groggle wuggle, wuggle groggle..."

  Xu Haifeng turned his head and exchanged a few words with Gongyang, saying some things that even he himself didn't understand. Only then did he turn back and say: "Since it's like this, we'll stop here for today. Please inform General Guan that our troops have been traveling hard and have run out of rations and luggage. Could the general please send some over to help us out?"

  Lu Jun was taken aback and thought to himself: Are they here to help with the battle or are they begging for food?

  But he showed politeness on the surface, slightly nodded his head, perfunctorily responded with a sound, and left on horseback.

  ※※※※

  In Taiyuan City, Gu Dao Yan received Xiao Bing's urgent report, and the shock in his heart was beyond description.

  "Barbarians? What have they come for?"

  Cheng Ming's question directly pierced into everyone's heart. However, no one could give him a correct answer.

  "Help us? Hmph... What a joke, when did these Southern Barbarians ever have such thoughts."

  A majestic and strange voice sounded from the side, and except for Gu Dao, everyone else closed their mouths at the same time, because this person was none other than Cheng Jiaxuan, the current head of the Cheng family.

  With a faint smile, Gu Dao asked: "So, what does the master of the house think is the best way to deal with this?"

  Cheng Jia Shang shook his head and said, "The great uncle had previously instructed that everything on the battlefield would be under your command, so naturally you are in charge." His voice paused for a moment before continuing, "Besides you, there is no one else who can command such a large army."

  Gu Dao sighed secretly in his heart, the battle of Taiyuan, he was destined to steal the spotlight from Cheng Jiaxuan, but for his own future situation, it was not necessarily beneficial.

  But as soon as he thought of the white-haired Cheng Xuanfeng, all his worries were immediately thrown out of his mind. Even if it was just to repay the old man's favor for recognizing him, he had no choice but to do so.

  "Sheng Ge, in my humble opinion, we absolutely cannot let them join our ranks."

  The old man who spoke was short and lean, but a pair of eyes shone brightly, making people dare not look straight at him. He was the only descendant of the Dong family, Dong Chengyong, who had been rescued by Cheng Xuanfeng from the execution ground in the past.

  He has an extraordinary relationship with Cheng Jia Sheng, having grown up playing in the mud together since childhood. The two of them are also kindred spirits and can be counted as one of the rare individuals who can have a conversation with Cheng Jia Sheng.

  At this time, seeing the atmosphere in the field is relatively heavy, I hurried out to change the subject.

  "Not bad, these barbarians suddenly arrived here, heaven knows what kind of mystery is hidden in it, can't be unguarded." Cheng Yinghao hastily said.

  They all know that an army that has never coordinated before will likely decrease rather than increase its combat effectiveness if it is hastily merged together.

  Especially before this upcoming decisive battle, doing something like this is no different from seeking death.

  Cheng Yinghao continued: "Father, Gu Shu, in my humble opinion, they came to assist in the battle is false, taking advantage of the fire to loot is true."

  "What did you say?" Gu Dao asked with a smile.

  Cheng Yinghao bowed respectfully, unlike his biological father. For Gu Daoxiong, it was genuine respect from the bottom of his heart: "These barbarians must have heard the news and rushed here from afar. If we win this battle, they will naturally add flowers to our brocade, killing two Xiongnu people to show their merit. If..."

  He paused for a moment, and it was not very auspicious to say such things at this time. However, seeing Guan Yu's encouraging eyes, he immediately said: "If we have any negligence, I'm afraid that at that time, the barbarians will turn to surrender to the Xiongnu people and become our enemies."

  "Then let's start by sacrificing them to raise the flag."

  Everyone was stunned, and the one who spoke up was a rough and hearty man.

  He is one of the few brave generals in Cheng's private army, Xu Xiongfei. When fighting, he was extremely brave and loyal to the Cheng family with all his heart. However, at a critical moment, he lacked a bit of caution.

  "Impossible." Cheng Yinghao hastily said: "At this critical moment, whatever they say is the righteous army coming to reinforce. If we make a move that offends both men and gods because of this reason, I'm afraid this battle won't need to be fought anymore."

  "Haha......" Gu Dao Yan suddenly burst out laughing, and as soon as he opened his mouth, all the sounds immediately came to a halt.

  "Since you think so, nephew, I won't have a different opinion either. Let them guard the outer perimeter then."

  Cheng Yinghao let out a sigh of relief. Since the old marshal had already made up his mind, naturally no one dared to refute him anymore.

  "Marshal, they're demanding food and blankets..."

  Someone suddenly asked.

  "Give it to them, and don't bother to be so meticulous about this little thing."

  It is...

  Gu Dao stood up, his eyes swept around the room and said: "The great war is approaching, this battle is of great importance, everyone be careful not to slack off."

  It is...

  Apart from Cheng Jia-sheng, loud slogans filled the entire house.

  He stood up and walked out of the great hall, a gust of evening wind blew in, and he felt a slight coolness.

  He looked up at the sky and whispered softly: "Autumn... has arrived..."
