The sound of gongs shocked all the villagers in Tuozi Village to walk out of their homes with hoes and shovels.

Shen Niannian couldn't care about Du Shengnian at this time, so he hurriedly took the ladder placed in the courtyard, climbed onto the roof, and looked in the direction of the entrance of the village.

"Miss Shen, how is the situation at the entrance of the village?"

The Shen family's house was built in the center of the village, and when he stood on a high place, he could just see what was happening at the entrance of the village.

Shen Niannian squinted his eyes, and saw a group of people riding fast horses towards the village outside the entrance of the village, raising billowing mud and dust.

And the villagers who were in charge of guarding at the entrance of the village had already picked up their bows and crossbows and aimed them at the bandits on horseback.

Du Shengnian asked, and at the same time followed on the roof, seeing this scene, he couldn't help frowning: "Deliberately delaying until now, lowering the vigilance of the villagers, and then taking it by surprise, this bandit also has some brains, and he didn't capture other villages in one go at the beginning." ”

The bandits were menacing, and soon confronted the villagers who rushed out.

Billowing dust rose in the distance, and Shen Niannian said worriedly, "This ...... Could something happen? ”

"I'll go over and help, Miss Shen, it's better for you to hurry back to the house and hide for a while."

Du Shengnian jumped off the roof directly, and after saying this, he turned around and went back to the guest room where he lived, got his sword, and hurriedly rushed out.

In the courtyard, Shen Xiuniang helped her eldest daughter-in-law Su Niang to walk out anxiously, and when she saw that she had climbed onto the roof, she hurriedly shouted anxiously, "Niannian, you come down for me, what do you look like when you climb on the roof, what if you attract the attention of those bandits?" ”

Shen Niannian stuck out her tongue, smiled, and hurriedly climbed down the wooden ladder, but was beaten down by Shen Xiuniang again.

"Mother, can the people in our village fight? I just saw a lot of bandits out there with those big knives. Although he was told for a while, Shen Niannian was still a little worried about the situation outside.

After all, she had never seen the combat effectiveness of the villagers of Tuozi Village with her own eyes, so she was inevitably worried.

However, Su Niang, who was pale, coughed a few times, and then covered her lips and smiled, but there was no worry on her face, "Eldest sister, you can relax and wait for news at home, I haven't been out of the cabinet before, and when I stayed at home, I had heard of the reputation of Tuozi Village, you are a person from this village, why don't you know the strength of the villagers?" ”

At that time, the border was in chaos, and the villagers in the village were all twisted into a rope to fight against the bandits and enemies who wanted to bully them, the common people, among them, the men of Tuozi Village were the most fierce.

Because of the special terrain of Tuozi Village, surrounded by deep mountains, the grain grown in the past was either stolen or robbed, and the villagers almost fell to the point of not having enough to eat.

But in the early years, there was a little baby in Tuozi Village who rescued a general with strong martial arts, although the general was old, but he had also been on the battlefield and led soldiers to fight.

Although he didn't come out again for some reason, and the general didn't leave Tuozi Village until he died, but with this general, the men in the surrounding villages were all trained to some extent, although they were not as good as those officers and soldiers who had been on the battlefield, but they still had the strength to protect their village.

Although Shen Niannian has the memories of the original owner, if he doesn't think about it, those memories will not take the initiative to run out on weekdays, so he doesn't know that there is such a history.

Therefore, when she heard Su Niang's similar ridicule, she just smiled dryly, "How can there be, but we have lived a peaceful life for several years, this is not to be afraid of ......"

"Eldest sister, just put your mind at ease, the terrain of our Tuozi Village is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as you hold the entrance of the village, those bandits will definitely not be able to enter, as long as we delay for a while, people from other villages around will immediately rush over to help, rest assured, it will definitely be fine."

After Su Niang finished speaking, she coughed again.

Seeing this, Shen Xiuniang hurriedly helped her to the house, and instructed Shen Niannian, "Niannian, you go to the kitchen to get some food first, and send it to Lizheng's house after a while, we don't have a man in our family, so we can't make people think that our family is hiding." ”

Brother An is still young, although Brother Qi went out, and even took their guest Du Gongzi out to help, but in general, these are not people in their family.

In order to avoid people gossiping, Shen Xiuniang would rather give more food and block the mouths of those women with broken mouths.

Although Shen Niannian was still worried, he still nodded and went directly to the kitchen.

She's just a helpless woman, even if she worries, it's useless, it's better to have some confidence in the villagers.

When Du Shengnian came to the entrance of the village, the villagers had already fought with the bandits.

Due to the high position of Tuozi Village, if you want to enter the village, you must first pass through a large gentle slope, so the villagers simply attack when those bandits are uphill.

What kind of bow and crossbow boulder, what is lethal is used, and by the time those bandits come up, they have already lost a third of their people.

The sycophants fled in all directions, but Du Shengnian frowned when he saw these bandits.

Although it seems to be chaotic these days, if you look closely, you can see that these bandits have actually formed a triangular formation and are attacking Tuozi Village.

Therefore, although it seems that many people have been injured, what has actually been preserved is a full thirds of the strength of World War II.

Something seems to be going wrong.

After realizing this, Du Shengnian hurriedly went to Mr. Feng to explain the situation.

When Mr. Feng saw him dressed like this, he knew that his status in the army was not low, and his expression suddenly became serious, and he hurriedly called a few villagers, and after muttering, the villagers suddenly retreated to the rear.

A fight officially began, and the leader of the bandits squinted his eyes, looked at these villagers who were not easy to deal with, and suddenly scolded secretly, "Damn, who said that the people in this Tuanzi Village are the best to fight, why are they more like bandits than us!" ”

The big man next to the bandit leader touched the place where he was beaten, and smiled bitterly, "Boss, I just said, this lump village is not easy to fight, you have to listen to that stinky girl." ”

Two or three years ago, Tuozi Village was a good hand at robbing those noble officials, and when it was twisted up with several surrounding villages in the past, it didn't rob those passing caravans, and even fought against the officers and soldiers!

Who used to mix around this border, who doesn't know which villages can't be provoked?

But this boss is good, he insists on coming to find this hard stubble.

The two sides quickly clashed, but the villagers didn't know what their subordinates were merciful, only that if these bandits entered the village, the women and children of the family would suffer.

Therefore, one by one it was as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and in addition to Du Shengnian, who was not weak in force later, it was a stalemate for a while.

But at this time, the women in the village were not idle, they began to boil water one by one, and followed Wang Sanniang to move the hot water bucket to a high position at the entrance of the village, looking at those bandits like they were pouring boiling water.

Suddenly, a scream echoed around him.

"Stinky and shameless, he actually came to our village to rob, and he didn't look at what our Tuozi Village used to do? The old lady scalded you to death! ”

"Hmph, sisters, let's splash hard, let these little bandits see how powerful we are!"

……

Many of the village women who came with Wang Sanniang laughed, and they gloated even more when they looked at the bandits who were burned.

Of course, occasionally I will hurt my own people, but it will be okay to be scolded for two sentences, and in general, it is those bandits who are miserable.

It is indeed their bad luck that these bandits chose today, because they have just come to Tuozi Village with their front feet, and they are also bringing the people from the barracks towards the village with their back feet.

When they heard the movement in front of them and saw that there were bandits attacking the village, the officers and soldiers who followed them immediately stepped forward to help.

After some chaos, some villagers were injured, but fortunately, no one died.

The leading general glanced coldly at the bandits who had been tied up by his own men, "Bring these people back to the town and see if there are any spies from Beihan." ”

"Yes, General Ling."

A group of officers and soldiers tied up the people and returned directly to the same route.

And Du Shengnian saw that it was surnamed Ling who came over, so he put away the blood-stained sword, walked over and smiled lightly, "Why are you here in person?" What about the prince? You're here, what about the safety of the prince? ”

"It's not that you don't know the prince's martial arts, this time you have been missing for so long, but it has made the brothers worry for a while." Ling Moyuan looked at Du Shengnian with an expressionless face before continuing, "It seems that you are recovering well. ”

Du Shengnian said with a smile, "This is thanks to the family who saved me and Li Zheng, otherwise I would have frozen to death even if I hadn't died of serious injuries." But why did you come at this time, is something wrong? ”

"Recently, there has been movement on the Huns' side, we are staring at it, the prince said to let you recuperate for a period of time, and then send me to pick you up." Ling Moyuan still said with a straight face.

Du Shengnian nodded, indicating that he already knew.

Then he continued, "Since you're all right, come with us." ”

Du Shengnian was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and shook his head, "Don't worry, I have to go and say goodbye to my life-saving benefactor first, don't lose your courtesy." ”

Hearing this, Ling Moyuan sneered, "Your noble son's habits haven't changed yet. But it doesn't hurt, it just happens to let our brothers come to the door to ask for a cup of hot water. ”

The two of them talked as they walked towards the village.

Therefore, when Shen Niannian opened the door, he was slightly startled when he saw Ling Moyuan, and said in surprise, "It's you?" ”
