At night, dogs bark and wolves howl in the village, and the mother and son who went out did not come back. Shen Weidong didn't dare to go out, and he didn't let Chai Gan go out, so he stayed in the room with the oil lamp and cursed.

There was no food in the house, only a small half tank of water left in the water tank, and Chang Sui fetched water for him to drink a few times. In the end, Shen Weidong couldn't scold, so he could only nest on a bed covered with torn cotton wool for one night.

After staying up until dawn, Shen Weidong hurriedly went out to find yesterday's deacon. But all the laborers of the village had gone up to the mountain at sunrise to toil, leaving the old and weak women and children behind. Shen Weidong was furious, and he was about to leave in a rage, but suddenly found a huge problem - he couldn't go.

The woman in the village told Chai Gan that the boat that delivered the supplies came in once every three months, and the last time it was delivered ten days ago, that is, if Shen Weidong wanted to go by water, he would have to wait in the village for at least two months and twenty days. Occasionally, there were people like them who came in, and those people generally had boats. Of course, if you want to leave not only the waterway, you can also take the mountain road, but the continuous group of people is uninhabited, and you may not be able to get out of the mountain after walking for half a year.

Shen Weidong looked up at the mountains, most of the fire was extinguished, and he went back to the thatched hut of the mother and son to sulk. At noon, an old man finally gave Shen Weidong a few sweet potatoes, but he didn't come to discuss any business, but to tell them that if they wanted to eat, they had to do work.

Chai Gan asked carefully, and Shen Weidong didn't want to listen to it. After the old man left, Chai Gan carefully talked to Shen Weidong about the priorities, and finally the young master did not object to Chai Gan going out to work to earn food, but he did not let Chang Sui go, because he wanted someone to serve.

The days passed quickly, and Shen Weidong had already lived in the village for more than a month, and it didn't take a few days to go from being unwilling to accepting his fate. After accepting his fate, he lay down every day and waited for the dry firewood to be delivered, which was called saving physical strength. As for Liu Yi's explanation of his talk about Fushou Gao, he had already been thrown out of the clouds. He only thinks about two things every day, when will Chai Gan come? When will the boat come?

On this day, it was also as usual. Shen Weidong was lying in a daze, and suddenly heard a quick and short horn sound, but this did not affect Shen Weidong to continue to be in a daze. However, after a quarter of an hour, the door opened, Shen Weidong thought it was Chai Gan, and was about to say something, when he saw a bright big knife slashing at him, cutting his neck.

Shen Weidong was in severe pain, and before he died, he saw a soldier with blood and wearing the armor of the Ming army.

The long attendant who had been lying on the side screamed, but it was a knife that hit the heart.

Nangong Jin stood on the mountainside of the mountains and looked down at the villages in the valley, dressed in armor. Behind him were more than a dozen people in thin armor, as well as the overseers sent by the governor of Huguang. Several standard-bearers fluttered the dragon flag representing the imperial court and the military flag embroidered with the word 'Nangong'.

This time, I didn't expect Zheng Shu to be so reliable. Because what Nangong Jin was waiting for in Chenzhou was not only the prefect of Chenzhou, but also the governor of Huguang, as well as the documents authorized by the cabinet and the Ministry of War to recruit troops on the spot.

According to the governor of Huguang, they have been looking for these mobs for a long time. These people not only provided financial resources for the White Lotus Sect, the Southern Barbarian rebels, and even for the Orientals. The Cabinet has expressed its willingness to negotiate on several occasions, but none of them have been refused. Originally, the imperial court didn't know where the financial resources of these people came from, but now they know that they are actually Fushou Gao.

At first, Nangong Jin wondered if it was Zheng Shu's hands and feet, or the story made up by Boss Qian, but when he saw the governor take out the report about this matter a year or two ago, he believed that there was really such a thing.

As a result, the 200 Yanbei Church, including Jiang Sinian, directly had the identity of the government.

And that mountain village, according to Li Mo, there are institutions around the valley, and at the same time, there is also considerable force in the village, especially on the mountainside, the villagers have built a dam, and when it is critical, the dam is destroyed, and the flood floods the village, so that they can die with the enemy.

For three days in a row, in the Chenzhou Mansion, the governor of Huguang, the prefect of Chenzhou, Nangong Jin, Li Mo, and Jiang Sinian, according to the known situation, studied tactics on the topographic map of the mountains and rivers west of Chenzhou.

According to the plan, half of the Yanbei Hall, led by Li Mo, crossed the mountains three days ago and laid an ambush around the terraced fields, with the purpose of finding and destroying the institutions set up and ambushing the villagers. The other half, led by Jiang Sinian, sneaked from the cliffs along the river to the outside of the village, except for the guards who guarded the sentry and sent the message, and waited for the signal in place. And Nangong Jin led the people to the side of the mountainside dam, commanded the attack, and finally released water to destroy the village. By this time, the five villagers guarding the dam had already collapsed to the side and died.

It was a very normal day, and from time to time the sun in the valley broke through the clouds and shone on the land. The villagers also went up to the mountains to work as usual. The only difference is that what awaits them is a deadly arrow.

There was a short and urgent horn sound in the valley, and before the horn fell, long arrows flew in the air, such as a life-urging rune, and the middle one fell silently to the field, and the unkilled did not wait for them to come back to their senses, and there would be supplementary arrows.

Finding out about the situation, the village guards quickly found the location of the arrows and ran towards the mountains on the edge of the terraces, while shouting for the villagers in the flower fields to return to the village. However, the sharp blades hidden in the mountains and forests emitted a strange light, and with these flying knives and sharp weapons, the force of the village protection team was quickly suppressed.

Seeing all this, the villagers in the flower fields ran towards the village with horror on their faces, shouting.

At the same time, Jiang Sinian's team outside the village was divided into two teams, most of them entered the village with Jiang Sinian, and a small part ambushed and killed the villagers who fled for their lives.

After a brief massacre, the village met with fierce resistance. The armed forces in the village are hidden in thatched huts and stilted buildings, and there seem to be village guards with big knives and spears in every corner. Jiang Sinian couldn't set up an offensive formation of ten people, so he had to spread out his individual soldiers to fight, and his combat effectiveness dropped a lot in an instant.

The horn sounded again, and the archers, who had been waiting for the rabbit, took out their long knives with their bows and arrows on their backs, and rushed towards the mountain village in the valley, not letting go of a lone villager wherever they passed. The village guards on the mountain also abandoned the terraced battlefield and retreated to reinforce the village. However, the congregation that was fighting with them almost chased after them.

The terraces were already covered with blood, and cries and wails echoed in the mountains.

Chai Gan was originally incorporated into the village guarding team. Before, the task of the village guard team was basically to prevent wild beasts from entering the village, and these days it is his turn to go up the mountain to fight wild beasts. A day earlier, he had noticed several traps and broken traps. I came back and talked to the captain, and got some materials to go up the mountain to repair.

When the first arrow was fired at the villagers in the flower field, Chai Gan was not far away, and he could hear the sound of heavy arrows breaking through the air. After all, after passing the age of blood, when these thirty or fifty heavy arrows flew in front of him, his first reaction was to hide. Because, this is by no means a weapon used for vendettas. As it turned out, he was right.

Bo Jia and Yan Ling Dao are the army of the imperial court! Chai Gan gasped and lowered himself to hide himself. Bursts of shouts came, sometimes far and sometimes near. It wasn't until after the third horn that the shouting and shouting gradually faded away, but Chai Gan still didn't dare to come out, and suddenly he heard an explosion, and the ground shook!
