A sheepskin drum sounded in the village. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Lu Xiaoqi summoned everyone in the village to the door of his house, and the waterwheel project was stopped first.

"Ladies and gentlemen, these two strangers have brought bad news!" Lu Xiaoqi pointed to the two people who were tied up on the side, "Someone outside the village cut off the priest's fingers, cut off the priest's tongue, and took a fancy to the salt here, and wanted to invade here!" ”

The villagers were shocked, it was clear that the news was sudden, they were shocked, and in this peaceful mountain village, such torture is hard to imagine.

They had lived here for generations, and it was hard to imagine the cruelty and violence, so it was quiet, and it was a long time before someone whispered down there.

"But the Son of God, the priests used to go out often, and once brought back some pieces of salt from outside the village, and since they have them themselves, why did they rob us?" An old man asked.

Lu Xiaoqi glanced at a stranger and motioned for him to explain.

"That's because your salt is beautiful and delicious, unlike the salt outside, which is just a bitter stone!" A stranger said loudly.

"Oh! I understand, it turns out that people outside the village don't know how to purify stone salt! The old man suddenly realized, and then turned to Lu Xiaoqi: "Let's teach them the method of purification, isn't it?" ”

I have to say that the people in the village have been kind to a certain level, and the priest was tortured like that, and he still wanted to calm things down, and he didn't have the consciousness to fight!

Lu Xiaoqi sighed: "What is about to come in is an army of slaves who have been on the battlefield, it is not clear how many people will come, but they are an army!" What does the army mean, everyone understands, right? ”

The villagers were at a loss, obviously, their ancestors should have understood very well, otherwise they would not have lived in seclusion here, avoiding the world, but unfortunately because of the lack of information, and the only priests who have seen the world in the past have kept their mouths shut about the outside world, resulting in the villagers having vague concepts of "invasion" and "army".

Since it is a "slave army", Lu Xiaoqi guesses that it should be in the period of slave society outside, and the so-called "nobleman" should be a big slave owner.

Since it is a slave society, after people break in, it is not enough to hand over the technology of salt making, the cattle, sheep, chickens and rabbits in this village, the grain stored by the villagers, and the villagers themselves will become other people's spoils of war and become other people's property!

In this "paradise", everyone treats each other equally, there is no class, to put it mildly, it is equivalent to the general mode of production of primitive society, of course they don't know what it's like to be a slave to others!

Lu Xiaoqi felt that it was more convincing to say it through the mouths of those two outsiders.

"What will happen to those slave armies when they come in?" Lu Xiaoqi looked at one of the strangers and asked.

"All the livestock, all the grain and salt!" The stranger said.

The villagers below immediately started to make an uproar, apparently unwilling to be plundered.

"What about the villagers here? What to do? Lu Xiaoqi continued to ask.

"All the old people are killed, and the young and strong, the women, and the children, all brought back as slaves!" The stranger replied.

"What happens when you become a slave? What did the slave need to do? Lu Xiaoqi continued.

"Men work all day, only one meal, women use it as goods, and trade with other city-states, if they are children, boys are sent to training, and when they grow up, they go directly into the slave army, and girls are also goods, and they are the most valuable at the age of 12!" The stranger told the truth very honestly.

Now the villagers at the bottom completely exploded the pot, that is too terrible, right? The villagers, who had never heard of the cruelty of the outside world, were greatly shocked, just like the flowers in the greenhouse, suddenly encountered hail!

However, they still don't have any fighting spirit, and some of them are just afraid!

Everyone looked at Lu Xiaoqi with their eyes, and at this moment, the "Son of God" became their real backbone and life-saving straw.

"Do you want to be robbed of livestock?" Lu Xiaoqi asked loudly, he was boosting morale.

"No" "I don't want to!" "Of course not!" The villagers below replied in a scrambled manner, shaking their heads vigorously.

"Do you want to be robbed of your grain and your fields?" Lu Xiaoqi continued to ask loudly.

"I don't want to!" This time, the voices were a little bit louder.

"Do you want to be enslaved and lose your children and partners?" Lu Xiaoqi looked around at the villagers.

"I don't want to!" The voices are more aligned.

"Block them!" Lu Xiaoqi raised his right hand and shouted loudly.

"Block them!"

"Block them!"

"Block them!"

The villagers shouted together, looking at Lu Xiaoqi in front of them with admiration, the power of faith seemed to explode, gathering on Lu Xiaoqi's body, with the "son of God" there, they felt extremely relieved.

………………

The two outsiders were tied up and thrown into the sheepfold, and Lu Xiaoqi led the villagers to the only entrance to the village - the river.

It just so happens that the low dam for flood control has been repaired, and this low dam is about 1.9 meters high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to turn over at once without training, and it always takes some effort.

And because it is rammed earth, it is thick and strong, and it cannot be pushed down, so it can be used as a "city wall" for the time being.

Time was pressing, and Lu Xiaoqi certainly didn't have time to train the villagers into qualified warriors, let alone build taller fortifications on the basis of the low dam.

Outside the earthen dam, there was a mudflat by the river, and Lu Xiaoqi asked the villagers to prepare a palm-long sharp wooden thorn, fix them on the planks, bury them shallowly along the river shoreline, and then cover them with silt as a cover.

Further in, all the way to the bottom of the dam, dig a dense trap two meters deep, insert a thick wooden stake with a pointed tip in the trap, cover the trap with a burlap cloth, and smear a layer of silt on the linen cloth.

In addition, the outside and top of the earthen dam wall should also be filled with sharp bamboo.

Finally, start inside the dam and continue to lay the trap until you are 50 meters away from the dam.

The above is the first line of defense, because Lu Xiaoqi does not know whether the slave army will carry bows and arrows, so he does not dare to let the villagers defend directly behind the earthen dam, such a "buffer zone" can at least ensure that the villagers are outside the effective range of other people's bows and arrows at the beginning.

According to common sense, that slave owner should not send too many people over, and this is not Cao Cao's expedition to Eastern Wu, it is not so exaggerated.

The first line of defense, there should be a lot of people left, starting from the river to the inside, there is a total of more than 70 meters of trap area, judging from the clothes of the two "strangers", the people of Uruk City are also not wearing shoes, so those wooden thorns and traps are enough to destroy their soles.

After doing all this, 5 days have passed, and the slave army that the strangers said still hasn't come, of course Lu Xiaoqi won't think that people won't come, this should be the legendary, "the calm before the storm"! (To be continued.) )
