Originally, we should have updated two updates today, but due to personal physical reasons, I’m sorry, please understand.

At the Eighteenth Son, Ma Chao said to Li Wei: "What should we do next depends on you!"

"I understand the meaning of the prefect!"

After saying this to Ma Chao, Li Wei ordered people to summon everyone. In addition to the eighteen of them, there were also 196 bandits.

After everyone was all here, Li Wei heard everyone shouting: "Brothers, everyone understands that doing ours is not the right way. No one among us is born to do this, but they all have to do it. Maybe everyone thinks it's not bad now, but do you really want to do it for the rest of your life?

Anyway, I, Li Wei, are not going to do anything anymore. As for where everyone is going, I am willing to continue to follow our brothers. Please stand on the far right. Instead of following our brothers, please leave after you get the money. From now on, there will be no number 18 sons in Yumen Pass!”

After Li Wei finished speaking, the people below were excited. He thought to himself, the boss said that he was going to break up. What was going on?

When Li Wei saw it, he should tell the truth, "Brothers, I will not hide it from it. I believe some brothers have already known that the three Han brothers had been destroyed a few days ago, and the one-eyed dragon was destroyed yesterday!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was excited again. Some people had heard about the three Han brothers, but only after everyone knew about the one-eyed dragon, but no one thought that Li Wei was lying to them. It seemed that the one-eyed dragon was really over.

"So brothers, we will disband today. We are willing to continue to follow our brothers. We welcome you, please stand on the right side, but we will not do this again in the future. If you don't want to follow us, please stand on the left side. After a while, we will all go down the mountain! Okay, brothers, it's time for you to make your choice!"

Most of the people were in a difficult situation. To be honest, they really couldn't accept it for a while, but Shibazi's subordinates had one thing that was very good, but they just followed their orders. Everyone knew that the boss was for everyone's good, so no one opposed Li Wei, and it was just a difficult time whether to follow or not.

On one hand, we can continue to follow the head of the company, but we can't do our job anymore. On the other hand, we can be free and unrestrained from now on, but we can't follow the head of the company. In the end, everyone gritted their teeth and made their own decisions.

When Li Wei looked at it, it seemed roughly half, but there were more brothers who were willing to continue to follow him. In the last count, there were 108 brothers who were willing to continue to follow him, and 88 people who wanted to leave. Li Wei gave people a lot of money to the eighty-eight people who wanted to leave.

"My brothers, everyone has their own ambitions. How do you decide that is your right. But I would like to advise you, that is, everyone should stop doing their jobs in the future. If you think you want to come back to find me in the future, then I, Li Wei, welcome you with both hands. Okay, everyone should clean up and go down the mountain!"

"The head of the family!"

These people were still reluctant to leave, but there was no way. Just as Li Wei said, everyone had their own ambitions. In the end, they had to bid farewell to Li Wei and the others one by one, and then went back to pack up their own things and went down the mountain.

After the eighty-eight people left, Li Wei said to the one hundred and eight left behind: "I believe that my brothers think that I, Li Wei, have surrendered to the court. In fact, it is not. I, Li Wei, are just a cooperative relationship with Ma Taishou of Dunhuang County!"

"We will go wherever the head goes! Follow the head of the head to the death!" One hundred and eight people shouted in unison.

It can be seen that these 108 people are the hard-core followers of the Eighteen Sons.

"Thank you for your kindness, brothers! I, Li Wei, swore here and I will live up to you in this life!"

Everyone was willing to follow Shibazi. This was not like this in a day or two, but it was like this over time. After Li Wei told Ma Chao about this, Ma Chao nodded secretly, and everything was still under his expectations.

"Li Wei, what do you think of the martial arts of your 18 brothers?"

Li Wei didn't expect Ma Chao to ask, "I can only say that he is a general third-rate level."

Yes, I and my brothers don’t have any guidance from famous teachers. It’s actually quite good to be able to achieve such a level now.

"Li Wei, you also understand that if you want to take revenge and kill your enemies, in addition to leveraging your power, your brothers' own abilities also need to be improved!"

"The prefect's words are good. We brothers practice martial arts hard every day, but in the end we didn't make much progress."

Li Wei himself was also very helpless. It was not that they didn’t want to improve, but that they really couldn’t improve.

When Ma Chao saw it, he said that he was on the main topic, "Li Wei, I want to introduce you to Youzhou to learn art. I wonder what you think?"

After hearing this, Li Wei thought for a moment and agreed, "Thank you, the prefect, it's so great. I'm willing to do it with my brothers!"

Li Wei had his own ideas, and now he had disbanded his team. Although he did not submit to the court, the official designation could not be done anymore. Therefore, the arrangements of his brothers and brothers depended on Ma Chao. Now he wanted to introduce himself and his brothers to Youzhou to learn art, which is not a good plan. Although he was leaving his hometown, Yumen Pass in Dunhuang is not his hometown, and he has been here for a long time. His brothers' hometown is Lijia Village, Linqiang, Jincheng.

More importantly, his brothers also want to improve their martial arts skills. Now that he has such an opportunity, he naturally cannot miss it. So it is not impossible to go to Youzhou, and he doesn't think that Ma Chao will introduce him to people who are not capable. With his understanding of this Ma Taishou in these days, he will definitely introduce himself and his brothers to people with real skills to learn.

Li Wei thought well, and Ma Chao wanted to introduce them to the three brothers of the Cen Du family in Lelang, Youzhou. This was what he had thought before, just look at the hatred of these eighteen sons towards foreign races and their ruthlessness towards themselves. If they let them learn the art, there will definitely be a lot of room for improvement.

As for the three brothers of the Du family, Ma Chao was confident that they would definitely help. He had a bet with them before, but he had never had time to let them fulfill it. This time he wrote to Du Yi, asking Du Li to teach the eighteen sons, and Du Yi also taught the eighteen sons' kung fu. Of course, it was not his kung fu that he put into the rogue step. He had his own plans.

"Okay, since you want to, this matter will be decided. I will make some arrangements after a while!"

"Thank you for your accomplishment!"

Ma Chao and Cui An returned to Dunhuang, and he had to prepare some things.

Half a month later, everything was ready, Ma Chao and Cui An went to Shibazi's place again, and followed the soldiers who were escorting the things.

When I saw Li Wei, "I have prepared everything I need, so you can set off today!"

"I don't know if my brothers are......"

Ma Chao nodded, "Yes, since they are following you brothers to the death, they will naturally be with you!"

"Thank you, the prefect!"

"Okay, Li Wei, don't be polite. These are weapons for you eighteen!"

As he said that, Ma Chao opened a box, and there were a total of forty swords inside. These forty swords are not the kind that are popular today, but a kind of sword that Ma Chao developed based on some memories of his previous life that is more conducive to fighting immediately. Anyway, it is much stronger than the contemporary swords. He ordered a special person to create these forty swords for thirteen days.

"There are a total of forty swords here, two for each of you eighteen, and the other four will be given to the three brothers of the Du family, even if it is a gift for them!"

Then Ma Chao sent Cui An a letter, "Fuda, when he saw Du Yi and Du Zhongming of the Du family, he handed him this letter. After reading it, he naturally understood how to arrange it!"

I had already agreed with Cui An, and this time he and Li Wei and they went to Youzhou, and Cui An agreed. It just so happened that he hadn't seen the three brothers of the Du family for a long time, so this time he happened to see them.

"By the way, there's this."

Ma Chao took out a book from his arms. This was a knife technique he created based on Nanhua's sword technique that was suitable for use on horseback. Of course, it was not the kind of big sword, but the knife technique suitable for fighting swords. He also handed the book to Cui An, "Fuda, hand this book and letter to Du Zhongming together, remember!"

"No! Don't worry, lord, everything is covered by me!"

"Li Wei, just go and pack it up. There are the property I have transported from you outside. You can deliver it to the Du brothers together!"

"This... the prefect, our brothers have some family background, so we don't have to spend money on the prefect!"

He understood what Ma Chao meant. More than a hundred people ate horses and didn't know how much it would cost in a day, so Ma Chao prepared all the money.

After hearing this, Ma Chao shook his head, "Li Wei, there is no need to be polite to me. I am not short of money now. After destroying the three Han brothers and the one-eyed dragon, their family background belongs to me. Now I don't think it's all!"

That's true, and with the relationship between Ma Chao and the Mi family, it can be said that he is not short of money now.

"As for your brothers' family, if you can trust me, then lend it to me first and will definitely repay you when you come back!"

"Where is the prefect who has said this, we brothers believe in the prefect, so we will trouble the prefect."

Ma Chao wanted to invest all the money borrowed from Li Wei into the Mijiatun business of grain, and Li Wei could not bring their money to Youzhou, so he naturally lent it to Ma Chao.

"Since that's the case, you can pack up and leave. Your family is taken away by the soldiers I brought!"

"I'm still reluctant to leave this!"

In fact, Ma Chao also knew that Li Wei and the others were the ones who were most reluctant to leave, but there was no way, and they had to leave. After Li Wei and the others were all packed, the soldiers brought by Ma Chao also packed all the things, and Li Wei burned the mountain with the last hand.

"Fuda, do you understand what Li Wei is listening to on the road?"

"No, lord, I'll listen to him!"

Cui An was only responsible for going to Youzhou Prefect Cen Hou to lead Li Wei to the Du family and contacting Du Yi. After all, Du Yi only recognized him. The specific way to go and how to go along the way was decided by Li Wei. More than 100 people, each with three horses, and with a lot of money, they could not swagger through the state and the county, so they had to rely on Li Wei to lead them all the way to Youzhou Lelang Changcen. Ma Chao believed that there was no problem with their arrival safely, but it was just a matter of time.

Everyone parted ways at the foot of the mountain. Ma Chao led his soldiers to Yumen Pass, while Li Wei and the others headed towards Dunhuang. Ma Chao immediately thought, Li Wei, the eighteenth son, I hope you will not let yourself down!

This time his decision destined Li Wei and their future extraordinaryness. Ma Chao's actions created eighteen gods of killing. Li Wei and the eighteen people were the eighteen cavalry of Liangzhou who followed Ma Chao to fight the world in the future, and even made the alien race and princes scared.

At Yumen Pass, Ma Chao met Wang Kang who was inspecting here. "Wang Sima, I wonder what the bandits near Yumen Pass are doing recently?"

For half a month, Ma Chao was only concerned about studying the swords, and then he was busy making swordsmanship, so he did not ask about military and political affairs. Anyway, the civil affairs were handled by Zhang Ji, and Wang Kang was also responsible for military affairs, so Ma Chao was much more leisurely.

"The prefect doesn't care, and his subordinates are about to report to the prefect. After we wiped out the three Han brothers and the one-eyed dragon, the bandits near Yumen Pass are no longer as rampant as before. In these days, we sent troops to encircle and suppress a few small groups of bandits, so it is still relatively peaceful near Yumen Pass. The other bandits know that the three Han brothers and the one-eyed dragon have been destroyed, so they dare not make too much moves. However, although it is much more peaceful than before, there are still bandits a little far from Yumen Pass. "

Ma Chao nodded when he heard this. These are normal. After the three Han brothers and the one-eyed dragon were destroyed, the small bandits naturally did not dare to make big moves, nor did they dare to appear frequently. Several bands came out.

But this is near Yumen Pass, but it is not like this if it is a little far away from Yumen Pass. It is okay to go east of Yumen Pass, after all, it is still the sphere of influence of Dunhuang County. The Dunhuang prefect was severely attacked and was quite safe. But west of Yumen Pass, going west to Yumen Pass is the boundary of the Western Regions. When the largest force, the one-eyed dragon, is destroyed, the nearby area is safe, and no one dares to rob, but if it is farther away, I can't control it.

The last time I sent troops to wipe out the one-eyed dragon, I had already reached the Western Regions. This time, I couldn’t send troops further because of a few small groups of bandits. I couldn’t use the Western Region Chiefs as decorations. It seems that I have to use that method.

Ma Chao selected 400 people from the Dunhuang defenders and divided the 400 people into four groups, each with one hundred people, and was only responsible for escorting the caravans. He was responsible for protecting the safety of the caravans who went out of Yumen Pass to the Western Regions. However, the quota was limited, and there were only four groups, so the main escort was the larger caravans with no guards, who were responsible for sending them to safety areas. Ma Chao left the main force of the 100 soldiers who were left after the bandit suppression, and Ma Chao left the Mi family caravans. He was not a saint, so he felt that it was normal to do so.

Ma Chao felt that he could only do this, but this series of actions and measures have won him a lot of good reputation.

The merchants who often go to Yumen Pass and the people who come and go to Dunhuang know that the Ma Taishou of Dunhuang first sent troops to wipe out the three Han brothers and the one-eyed dragon, and then scared away the Eighteen Sons (because the people don’t know the truth, they thought the Eighteen Sons were scared away), especially the move of sending troops to escort the caravan, which was deeply loved by the merchants.
