Li Wangjin has also been on the wall of the village to look at the outside of the Xingtianjun and many homeless people, his face is very dignified, as the third son of the Li family, he was not valued by his father before, especially after the eldest brother was admitted to the Jinshi, after entering Beijing as an official, he was even more untreated by his father, so he made trouble all day long, and later because he brought a few domestic servants and killed the whole family of several tenants who resisted rent in the vicinity, he began to receive his father's attention and handed over the Zhuang Ding of Lijiazhuang to him to take care of.

In the past few years, he has had room to speak in Lijiazhuang, he has taken Zhuang Ding all these years, and he has not been less than fighting and killing people in this area, and has accumulated some prestige (notoriety), with his temperament, he really didn't put these poles in his eyes, and the year before last, there was also a pole that wanted to fight Lijiazhuang, but he led the township Yongzhuang Ding to beat a loss of soldiers, defeated and left, so for this time the Xingtian Army came to commit the crime, at first he didn't care very much.

But when he saw the Xingtian Army coming today, his heart also hung up, because he was also a person who had seen the world, this group of poles surnamed Xiao, when he appeared outside Lijiazhuang, he saw at a glance that the Xingtian Army had been out of the category of ordinary poles, in his eyes, this Xingtian Army was more like a crack army, not a rabble at all.

From the scouts of the other party first cleared out the sentry they left outside the village, and then the large group of people and horses came to stop and stopped, and then began to build the camp, everything was carried out in an orderly manner, and there was no chaos, so it seems that this person surnamed Xiao must not be an ordinary person, otherwise, it would never have risen so quickly in this area.

What surprised him even more was that the quality of the equipment of the Xingtian Army was not worse than the officers and soldiers who came from Fengxiangwei before, among them, the soldiers in armor actually accounted for about thirty percent of the strength of the Xingtian Army, such a level of equipment has exceeded the local ordinary guard army, and the hundreds of soldiers of the Xingtian Army who arrived first will not be chaotic in the whole operation, strictly in accordance with the military orders of the officers, it can be said that the order has been forbidden, which is rare even among the officers and soldiers. Not to mention their Zhuang Ding Xiangyong of Lijiazhuang, wanting to do this, it almost made him dare not imagine.

Although Li Wangjin has a bad reputation in the local area, is famous for his good deeds, and dares to fight and kill, but after seeing the performance of the Xingtian Army outside Zhuangwai today, his heart was still greatly shocked.

Originally, he still had a plan, organized nearly three hundred Zhuang Ding in Zhuangzi, and planned to rush out and kill for a while while they were not firmly on the footing when the Xingtian Army arrived, disrupt the subordinates of the Xingtian Army, and give the Xingtian Army a dismount first, but when he saw the lineup of the Xingtian Army, even if he dispelled this idea, he could be regarded as a person who had seen the world, and he could think with his toes, if he led Zhuang Ding to rush out and ran into the Xingtian Army, what would happen, and then it would not be him to give the Xingtian Army a dismount. I'm afraid that Lima will be beaten by the Xingtian Army and flee back, and then this Li Jiazhuang may really be finished.

Li Wangjin was actually in a mess in his heart at this time, but because he was now the backbone of Li Jiazhuang, his face was also forced to be calm, and he did not show a panicked look.

After hearing his father's command, Li Wangjin coughed and forced himself to calm down: "Dad is a clear-eyed person, this Xingtian army seems to be really different from the previous poles, and it seems that they can defeat the official army, it seems that it is not a fluke!" This surnamed Xiao does have some means! Looking at it, this Heavenly Army is far from being comparable to ordinary poles, and it can be regarded as an elite army!

But please rest assured, there are children here, and we must not let this surnamed Xiao break our Zhuangzi!

It's just that at the moment, our Zhuangzi suffered a lot of losses in the previous battle, and the number of men and horses is insufficient, so Daddy still has to find a way to quickly send people to Huangyang County to ask for reinforcements. This matter should be done as soon as possible! ”

Although Li Wangjin patted his chest and assured, his subsequent words showed timidity, revealing his lack of confidence.

It's no wonder that Li Wangjin will have no confidence, the strength of Li Jiazhuang in this area is indeed second to none, just the young Zhuang Zhuang Ding has raised nearly 400 people, plus the young and strong people of the Li family and the tenants can be drawn from the village, the number can reach as many as seven or eight hundred, even more than the number of defenders in Wangyang County, so in the area of Huangyang, they are really not afraid of any small poles.

But it was because Li Fengtian wanted to put this Xiao Yiaxe to death, gathered the nearby Zhuangzi and invited the officers and soldiers of Feng Xiangwei, and wanted to exterminate the Xiao pole entrenched in Tianlong Village in one fell swoop, but not only did he not succeed in exterminating the surname Xiao, but more than 1,000 officers and soldiers who went to the village Yong were beaten by the Xingtian army, and the township Yong who escaped back was less than forty percent when he set off. However, there are still more than 200 people missing, and it is said that more than 100 of them were also captured by the Xingtian Army and imprisoned in Tianlong Village.

Among them, there are some partial relatives of the Li family, and these days, the families of these people come to Li Fengtian and their father and son every day to beg them, so that they can think of a way to save their son.

That battle was quite a big blow to the Li family, the original Zhuang Ding lost more than half, and those people used to be the backbone members of Li Jiazhuang's private army, and the loss was so big at once, they couldn't replenish it in a short time.

Although after this period of time, they spent a lot of money to recruit a group of Zhuang Ding, but because the newly recruited Zhuang Ding has not had time to go through the whole training, the combat effectiveness has decreased a lot compared with before, and the rest of the villagers are temporarily cobbled together from the tenants and clans, which is even more useless, so don't look at the number of village soldiers called in Lijiazhuang at the moment, but in essence, it is not comparable with before.

This is also what Li Wangjin is worried about, after seeing the lineup of the Xingtian Army, he also completely put away his contempt for the Xingtian Army, and began to think about how to keep their Li family's big family business.

Li Fengtian looked at the sky, sighed and said: "Who is Liu Wencai in this county of Huangyang, you all know that there are not many officers and soldiers in Wangyang, the reason why he dared to send troops to assist our Li family in suppressing the old nest surnamed Xiao last time is actually to see that the strength of the surname Xiao is still weak, and now after the surname Xiao plays the banner of the Xingtian Army, he has gathered the people near the front, I am afraid that Liu Wencai will be given a courage, and he will not dare to send troops to help us!" Don't count on this Huangyang!

At present, Chen Qiyu, the governor of the five provinces, is supervising the army in the Shangluo area to deal with the king Gao Yingxiang and the eight kings, Cao Cao's large group of rebel troops, Fengxiang Mansion is also short of troops, and Chen soldiers are also in the southeast area, guarding against the chaos of the army to highlight Shangluo and invade the Fengxiang area, and there is not much strength to deal with this Xingtian army, the only thing that can be counted on at the moment is the flying rat Jiao Datong, can we secretly support him in these years, and bring his men to help, if this Jiao Datong does not come, the Tian family and the Liu family are estimated not to send people to help us!

Therefore, this time, we can't bet our treasures on them, and expect others to help us, we have to think of more ways to resist the attack of this Heavenly Army on our own!

This battle can be said to be about the life and death of our Lao Li family, you can't be lucky, no matter what you do, you have to give me the pole outside, think of more ways! ”

After listening to Li Fengtian's words, several people in charge of Lijiazhuang nodded their heads with a worried face, but they still had no way to retreat from the enemy.

Li Fengtian was old in the end, his energy was a little lacking, he stood on the village wall for a long time, and he was a little tired, so he was supported by his subordinates to get off the village wall and go back to the mansion to rest, and the affairs here were handed over to his third son Li Wangjin to be responsible.

And Li Wangjin didn't have a better way at this time, so he ordered to go down, let the Zhuang Ding Xiangyong divide into two groups, and start to climb the Zhuang wall separately, prepare for the imperial guard, and at the same time ordered the tenants in the Zhuangzi, each family out of Ding, to help the Zhuang Ding Xiangyong to transport all kinds of arrows, rolling wood, gravel and other things to the Zhuang wall, strengthen the garrison of Zhuangzi, and send people to seal the two Zhuang gates, prohibiting anyone from entering and leaving without permission, anyway, after seeing the lineup of the Xingtian Army, Li Wangjin will not take people out to fight with the Xingtian Army in the field.

Counting the available manpower, Li Wangjin didn't feel too panicked, after all, the manpower in their Zhuangzi was not small, and the food reserves were enough for them to eat for several years, and they were not afraid that the Xingtian Army outside would besiege them for a long time, if they were besieged for a long time, it would be fine, with the grain and grass of the Xingtian Army, it would definitely not last long.

Therefore, as long as they stick to the village wall and do not let the Xingtian army take advantage of it, their Li Jiazhuang still has a great chance of winning, Li Wangjin and a few of his subordinates discussed it, let them each guard a section of the village wall, and after dividing the responsibilities, they began to patrol the village.

Since learning the news of the arrival of the Xingtian Army, the inside of Lijiazhuang suddenly became nervous, and the tenants were evacuated to Zhuangzi in advance, and were placed in various places in Zhuangzi, in addition to helping to carry various imperial things, they were also responsible for cooking and sending back to Zhuang Ding and other chores.

Don't look at the Li family's usual exploitation of their tenants, but really at this time, most of these tenants are still with the Li family, after all, they can only rely on such a big family to beg for a living, although the year is not good, they can't eat enough and don't have warm clothes, but they can follow the Li family to do things, and they can still beg for food, so that they will not be like many homeless, unable to make a living, if the Li family is broken by the pole, then they will completely lose the big tree they rely on, and then they can only become homeless. I survived by going out to escape the famine and beg.

Therefore, in terms of resisting the rebellious army that came to invade Lijiazhuang, the hearts of the people in Zhuangzi are still relatively united, which is also one of the advantages that the Li family relies on.
