The two maidservants agreed in unison and beckoned several maidservants to come out.

Midori said, "I'll go too." ”

The little county lord said: "Isn't the green dancing girl afraid? ”

Green Dance smiled: "I'm not afraid, I've seen a lot." ”

The little county lord was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered what Lu Wu had experienced with Lin Jue in the Luoyan Valley of Funiu Mountain, and immediately understood. The battle in the Valley of the Wild Goose was much more tragic than here, and after Green Dance experienced those, she naturally wouldn't be afraid of such a small scene.

"I'll go too."

"I'll go too."

Qianqian and Zheng Nuanyu also shouted.

The little county lord nodded and said, "Then let's go together." They all moved, and carried the wounded to a sheltered place to wash and bandage the medicine. Thanks to the fact that I brought a lot of medicine, it was originally to prevent falls and sprains and being cut by thorns, but it came in handy. ”

If Lin Jue was here, he would definitely praise the little county lord greatly. Lin Jue said before that he brought too many things, making it seem like a permanent residence. Now it seems that the careful arrangement of the little county lord actually played a big role. Not only did they bring medicine, but they also brought enough food. What was originally just a meal in the wild is now far away. The rest of the food can last two meals, at least you won't be hungry. This is probably the truth of the old saying, 'bring an umbrella on a sunny day, and bring dry food on a full stomach'. It's always good to be prepared.

When the nurses carried the dead and wounded to the top of the mountain beam meadow, and the nine dead were lying there in a row, the Lin family truly realized the cruelty of the situation in front of them and the severity of the situation. Someone cried. These nurses have been in the Lin family for many days, and many people know the Lin family's masters and servants. I also said hello when I was on duty on weekdays, but now I have become a lifeless corpse, how can I not make people cry sadly.

Guo Caiwei ordered someone to take out the felt blanket curtain brought and cover the dead.

When a group of wounded people were carried to the crowd, the cry was louder. Some of the seriously injured nurses had their arms or hands cut off, some had a large cut on their heads, and some had their chests and abdomen disemboweled. Under this kind of injury, the chances of surviving are slim. They were all covered in blood, but none of them groaned in pain, and some of them were grinning.

"Don't cry. What's the use of crying? Wash and bandage your wounds immediately and take care of them with the same care you would have for your loved ones. They all became like this to protect us. The little county lord said in a deep voice.

Everyone wiped their tears and nodded, and they were all busy at the moment when they fetched water, cleaned and bandaged the medicine.

Sun Dayong and more than 50 nursing homes discussed countermeasures in a low voice after the fortifications on the north side of the mountain beam. Although the thieves retreated, the opponent was still twice as numerous as their own. They didn't retreat too far. A few torches that had been thrown down from the ridge not long ago illuminated their position. They were gathered sixty or seventy paces below, and seemed to be resting and preparing for another attack. The guards took the crossbow and shot it in a round, but they didn't know if they had hit it.

The problem now is not just that the number is still inferior, but that the few bonfires on the left side of the mountain beam fortifications are about to burn out. There is nothing to burn anymore. After the fire is extinguished, the chaos in the darkness is extremely disadvantageous to the defenders. Thieves can easily touch them without being hit by crossbow arrows. And if one is not taken care of, and they touch the mountain beam, it is a tiger into the flock, and the ladies and maids of the Lin family and others who follow will suffer.

But this problem could not be solved, even if the clothes and horses carried by the people on the mountain beam were thrown into the fire and burned, it would not last long. At the moment, this approach doesn't really do much.

"Why don't we take the initiative to fight with them below. Just down the hillside, lest they rush up, and we pestered them so that they could not attack. We have repeaters, what are we afraid of them? Waiting so passively is not the way to do it after all. A nurse proposed.

Sun Dayong frowned and thought, this method was vetoed by him before, but now it seems to have advantages and disadvantages for the current situation. It is certainly one way to go down and take the initiative to find the other party desperately. You can force them to fight with you, so that they don't rush up and pose a threat to the people on the mountain beams. But in this way, he gave up the advantage of geographical advantages, and took the initiative to attack with less than twice the manpower of the opponent, I am afraid that I will feel a little dead. In normal times, this kind of proposal would naturally be reprimanded by Sun Dayong in front of him, and he scolded the proposer for being stupid. But at the moment, it's a good way to stall and it's worth trying.

"If we do, we must all be prepared to die in battle. Rushing down to fight face-to-face is to lose our advantage, and it is all up to our ability. In addition, in order to prevent the other party from raiding the mountain beam, more than a dozen brothers must be left behind in the mountain beam fortifications, just in case. Then we will only have forty men who will be able to go down and engage the enemy. It's too risky. Unless we can defeat each other in one fell swoop, it will be a big failure. Do we have the ability to defeat more than 100 with 40 men? Sun Dayong frowned.

The crowd fell into deep thought. Indeed, this approach is too risky. If the initiative fails, the situation will collapse. If this is the case, not only will he lose his own life, but everyone in the Lin family who protects him will suffer.

"Well, I'll take ten of my brothers and attack them. The rest of the brothers are still here. Our aim is not to engage them head-on, but to line up and scatter around the hillside to monitor each other's movements. as a guide to shoot their eyes and ears. As soon as we signal that there is an enemy attack, you will fire crossbow arrows at the place where we are alerting. This can significantly delay time. The white girl went to pick up Lord Lin, once they rushed back, with Lord Lin's wisdom, they would have a plan to retreat from the enemy. Let's delay until Lord Lin arrives. Sun Dayong made a decision.

Everyone looked at him blankly, and said in their hearts: Isn't this putting yourself in? Crossbow arrows in the dark don't have long eyes. Isn't there a danger of being hit by an arrow even if you shoot a warning shot?

Sun Dayong obviously knew what they were thinking, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, there are many rocks on the hillside, once you give a warning, you will hide under the rocks, and the crossbow arrows will not be able to hurt your own people." I don't want to die at the hands of my own brother. This is done entirely to prevent the other party from easily touching it. As soon as the bonfire was extinguished, we were blind. Delaying the opponent's attack is the best way to do it. All we can do is suppress with a repeater and shoot it. If we are lucky enough to kill a few dozen more of him, we will have the same number of them, so we will not be afraid of them. ”

Everyone looked at the several bonfires that had dimmed in front of them, and knew that what Sun Dayong said was right. The closer the other party is, the greater the danger. It can only slowly consume their manpower and delay their time.

"Without further ado, act now. Brother Agui came with the brothers of the first team. Let's spread out at a distance of ten paces, and touch forty paces down. Be smart, maybe you'll be able to bump into them head-on. Maybe they're already on the offensive against. ”

The ten nurses of the first team were still intact, so they whispered promises, scattered their waists, and touched down the hillside. More than a dozen people covered the cross-section of a hundred steps down the hillside at a distance of ten paces. Basically blocked the area where the opponent was attacking.

At a distance of about seventy paces down the hillside, the leader of the thieves was ready to attack again. After summing up the lessons of the last failure, the leader of the thieves came up with a solution. He divided the remaining 140 men into three teams, with a feint of more than 60 men in the middle, and a team of 40 men on each side of the team who touched the mountain beam after attracting the attention of the other party. They also saw that it would be very difficult to break through the mountain beam head-on. Only by attracting the opponent and rushing out on both sides of the two teams to disrupt the formation can there be a chance of success.

Obviously, the thieves had underestimated the enemy before, and they thought that they could directly attack the mountain beam with their numerical advantage. But as it turned out, they didn't. So the masked thief leader in the lead began to use his brain to figure out a way. began to set up a formation, and the feint attack from east to west was made. This masked thief also seems to have some leading talent.

In the middle, a team of more than 60 people, holding improvised shields woven from rattan branches, began to rush upwards with great fanfare. Their purpose was to attract the attention of their opponents on the mountain beams, so they deliberately did not disguise it. The two teams on either side are the real main attacking teams. They crept up ghostly between the rocks without making a sound.

However, this wishful thinking somehow came to naught. After the mournful chirping of a bamboo flute sounded on the hillside on the left, a large canopy of crossbow arrows poured down, and immediately shot six of the forty people attacking on the left, and the rest hurriedly lay behind the rocks and did not dare to move. The bad news on the right side also came, and another flute sounded, and a rain of arrows followed, killing and wounding seven more people. However, the fanfare team in the middle was unharmed.

"Fuck, what's going on? Do they have long eyes? Can you see that too? A group of thieves cursed.

"Could it be that they stumbled into it by mistake? Tempting archery? A thief asked from the side, having a worried IQ.

"Fart! Don't you hear the flute? It was a warning on the hillside. The thief scolded angrily, and with the sound of the flute, he understood what was going on. The opponent's hand actually broke his own sneak attack feint method by mistake, which was really infuriating. This caused the self-esteem of the masked thief leader, who claimed to be a leading general, to suffer a huge blow.

"Can't wait any longer to see how many arrows they have? Pass my orders, three teams march together, and attack me. This time you have to take it, and if you can't take it this time, you'll all die here. It has been six or seven hours since the late afternoon, and there is not much time left for us. The thief shouted. He also realized that the other party sent his eyes and ears to guide the bow and arrow shooting in order to delay time, and he had to make a final effort.
