After resting in the valley for a night, everyone set off together. However, the team did not mix together, but each walked in a group. The caravans of the Taier tribe headed, and the People's Army was about 200 meters apart and fell behind.

But the leader of the Muzhehu clan came to walk with Luo Yue and others, talking while walking, mainly asking them about the past 3 or 40 years, because what happened to the Qing court happened one by one, Luo Yue also explained in detail to Muzhehu one by one. However, in the past few decades, there were indeed few things that the Qing court could do, and Luo Yue naturally would not hide the taboos for the Qing court. He also accused the Qing court in his words, and Muzhehu couldn't help but shook his head and sighed. However, when Luo Yue talked about the achievements of the People's Army, he looked a little skeptical. Of course, Luo Yue didn't care too much.

Because the caravan had a lot of supplies, the behavior was slow and he rested overnight on the way. Luo Yue also took advantage of this time to talk to the Kunming ship, telling the Kunming ship what happened, and asked the Kunming ship to forward his opinions to Qingdao. After walking for more than half a day, he was not far from the tribe. If he speeded up his journey, he could arrive at the tribe before tomorrow night.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves in front of him sounded from afar, and a cavalry rushed over. Before the caravan was ready to be alert, the riders came to the caravan and then turned over and dismounted. However, someone had recognized the knight and shouted: "It's Borik, it's Borik, why are you here?"

The knight named Borik did not agree to the greetings of others, but shouted, "Where is the patriarch? Where is the patriarch? Something happened in the village."

Mu Zhehu had already arrived in front of the queue and said, "Borick, what happened in the village?"

When Borik saw Muzhehu, he immediately shouted: "Class leader, hurry up, go back quickly, Hei Fengsha brings people to attack our village again. The old patriarch is leading everyone to guard the village and send me out to find you, hurry up and rescue the village."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this and hurriedly said to Mu Zhehu: "Captain, let's go back quickly." Someone also said: "Captain can't walk fast, leave a few people to guard the horse team, and the others will rush back as soon as possible." Someone else said: "Captain, please Luo Junmen and others. If they are willing to help, it will be no trouble to defeat Hei Fengsha and the others."

Mu Zhehu thought about it and called a young man and said, "Go and invite Luo Junmen to come."

Not long after, Luo Yue came to Mu Zhehu and said, "Is there anything wrong with the patriarch looking for me?"

Then Mu Zhehu told Borik about the news, and then said to Luo Yue: "Luo Junmen, I know that such a request is indeed a bit too much, but we do need your help."

Luo Yue nodded and said, "We should do our best. Please rest assured, the patriarch, but we must first understand the situation and formulate corresponding strategies, so as not to act recklessly."

Mu Zhehu said: "Luo Junmen's words are reasonable, and I don't know what the Junmen wants to know about."

Luo Yue said: "Who is this Black Wind and Sand? How much do you know about him?"

Mu Zhehu said: "Black Wind and Sands are the beards (bandits) in this area. It is said that they have 12,000 subordinates under their command, which is the largest trap in this area. They have also come to fight our village twice before, but they have not been able to break it. I didn't expect that this time I came again. They must have known that we went to Shuangchengzi, and the village was empty, so they came to attack our village again."

Luo Yue nodded and said, "Your tribe has a village wall?"

Mu Zhehu said: "It is natural there to survive in the wild. If there is no wall of the village, you can't get through it. Don't say that you are hit by a beard, even a tiger or a blind bear come to harass you from time to time, which is unbearable."

Luo Yue said: "I don't know how long, how tall, and how thick the village wall is?"

Mu Zhehu then understood that Luo Yue was understanding the defense of the tribe, so he said: "The village wall is divided into four sides, with rivers on the south and west sides. Each side is about 40 meters long, each with a village gate, 1 zhang and 2 feet wide, which is made of wooden, and the city tower is also made of wooden. A horse-faced and arrow tower was built on each corner of the city. However, the arrow tower is made of wooden, but there are two bed crossbows we made on each arrow tower. The village wall is 1 zhang and 8 feet high, the wall bottom is 1 zhang and 2 feet thick, the wall top is 8 feet thick, and the wall top is 8 feet thick, and the wall thickness is 1 6 inches thick, all of which are made of rammed earth." As he said that, he also drew a simple drawing on the ground.

After seeing it, Luo Yue couldn't help but be surprised and said, "The design of this city wall is very professional, I'm afraid it's not designed by ordinary people."

Mu Zhehu also nodded and said, "Yes, Luo Junmen is very accurate. This city was designed by my father. My father was originally from Xingwu. It took more than 10 years to build this city. Fortunately, after the city was built, the black wind and sand came to attack us. It was all thanks to this city to protect our tribe."

Luo Yue turned to the young man named Borik again and said, "When did the Black Wind and Sand come?"

Borik said: "Yesterday morning! I attacked the city for a whole day yesterday, but we blocked it. Early this morning, before dawn, the old patriarch asked me to leave the city and find the patriarch to rescue me while it was dark!"

Luo Yue said: "How many people are there?"

"It looks like 6,700," Borick said.

Luo Yue said: "So how many people are guarding the village now?"

Borik said: "The old patriarch ordered that all those who can use weapons, regardless of gender, age, and age, should go to the village wall to guard it, and about 1,000 people gathered."

Luo Yue thought about it and then turned to Mu Zhehu and said, "Class leader, I think we should not rush back to the tribe to rescue today. Now the tribe has an old tribe leader in charge, and there is a strong city to support. The tribe is working together and united as one. The old tribe leader is also a martial artsman, so it should be okay to stick to it for a few days. Moreover, the distance here is not close to the tribe. Even if you hurry back, you will inevitably be exhausted when you arrive at the tribe. In this state, you will definitely be unfavorable to us. It is better to find a place near the tribe to avoid it, and rest for a night. Everyone will be fully prepared. To attack the black wind and sand early tomorrow morning, you will definitely be able to win in one battle."

After hearing this, Mu Zhehu thought for a while before saying, "What Luo Junmen said makes sense, just act according to Luo Junmen's intention."

One person said: "Clan leader, then today wouldn't the people in the tribe resist the black wind and sand? According to Borik, the men, women, young and old in the tribe are mobilized now. Even if they only resist for one day, how many people will die?"

Mu Zhehu shook his head and said, "Even if we go back now, it will be almost before dusk when we arrive in the tribe. So we will definitely not be able to catch up with this battle today. We can only rely on the people in the tribe. It is useless to be anxious."

After hearing this, everyone stopped talking. Mu Zhehu then asked the team to continue moving forward.

Mu Zhehu and others were indeed very familiar with this area. At around 5 pm, they came to a mountain depression to camp. This place was about 15 miles away from the Taier tribe, which was 7 or 8 kilometers away. Luo Yue was also very satisfied.

After the camp, Luo Yue sent a small team to take three Taier tribes to reconnaise the situation of the Black Wind and Sands, and also sent two tribes to the tribe to deliver letters to reassure the people in the tribe and agreed to attack the bandits together tomorrow.

That night, Luo Yue, Yang Rui, Zhou Xinghan, Mu Zhehu and others discussed tomorrow's combat plan. At the same time, Luo Yue ordered the seized Russian rifles and bullets to the subordinates. Mu Zhehu also selected 84 people from the caravan personnel and fought with the People's Army tomorrow. The rest stayed in the camp to guard the food and food. In fact, the subordinates who came out with him this time were basically young and middle-aged, with only a few women responsible for food and food affairs on the road, but the number of guns was limited. Luo Yue also required that the personnel participating in the war must be equipped with guns, so these 84 people could only be determined. Mu Zhehu also handed over the command of the subordinates to Luo Yue for command.

After resting for a night, at 5 a.m. the next day, the People's Army and the people who went to fight all stood up, and after breakfast, they advanced towards the tribe. At this time, it was still dark, and the team and the team reached a place about 2,500 meters away from the tribe. This place was only more than 1,000 meters away from the bandit camp. Luo Yue ordered all the people to stop and wait on the spot. Because the people had not undergone military training and did not know how to avoid their actions, Luo Yue did not dare to let them advance too close to the bandit camp, for fear of disturbing the bandits.

Except for three mortar teams, the rest of the People's Army continued to advance, sneaking less than 500 meters away from the bandits' camp before stopping, and according to the arrangements last night, each entered its respective positions.

At this time, in the bandits' camp, the bandits had just woken up. Some were setting up pots to boil water, some were rinsing their faces and mouths, and some were tidying up their luggage. Therefore, the entire camp was in chaos.

When Luo Yue learned that all the troops had entered the predetermined location, he nodded. At this time, the three mortar teams had set up mortars and set up shooting units. They could only wait for Luo Yue to give orders to launch artillery attacks on the bandits' camp.

Luo Yue waved his hand and said, "Fire the cannon."

"Boom boom boom!"

The three mortars opened fire almost at the same time, and thick smoke came out of the muzzle. Mu Zhehu and others were also dazed when they assembled the mortars. When the People's Army was assembling the mortars, Mu Zhehu and a few older people were discussing it. They also guessed that this was a cannon, but some people raised doubts. The gun was only 3 feet long and 2 inches thick. How powerful could it be? How far could it be? But they didn't expect that after the fire, the shells suddenly hit the sky and disappeared. Only then did they know that the cannon could really be far.

Two of the three shells fell into the bandits' camp. Xuan opened several tents and flew several pots of boiling water. At least a dozen bandits were killed and injured.
