The other people in the hall were all startled by Song Pei's loud shout, and they looked at Song Pei in disbelief. Only Zhang Song, the old merchant and Mai Yun were exceptions, and Mai Yun also shouted excitedly: "Yes, yes, yes, they just said that they were going to attack at night." ”

"Trouble, Mai Yun's news may be true, I traced Zhou Mingshu's traces to the village outside the valley, and he lost his trace there." Yu Xinzhi was the first to react.

"So the blast furnace and military training ground of the iron-smelting field were also destroyed by Zhou Mingshu's people? Not good! There are people in the valley who collude with Zhou Mingshu! The blacksmith exclaimed.

"Go kill Zhou Mingshu, go! Walk! Walk! Mai Yun immediately got up and searched for the weapon, and shouted at the same time.

"I'm going to wake up the kids!" Father Zhong got up and wanted to leave.

"Don't panic, everyone!" Song Pei shouted, "Everything is subject to the lord's arrangement!" ”

Zhang Songduan sat on the chief, his face was calm, he didn't move, and there was no sign of panic at all. Everyone was a little embarrassed, so they sat down quietly and waited for Zhang Song's arrangement.

After everyone quieted down, Zhang Song issued a series of orders in an orderly manner.

"Yu Jun, you immediately inform Madame of the news, and at the same time arrange for about ten people to go to the valley mouth to strengthen the guards."

"Uncle Zhong, you go and wake up a few teenagers, give them weapons, and let them guard against the enemy."

"Blacksmith, you lead Mai Yun to find Yu Jun and ask for a few more people, and immediately arrest Tang Wen and his related henchmen."

"Mai Yun, don't be angry, otherwise, you will leave Qingsong Valley! You go with the blacksmith now, and if anyone resists arrest, shoot and kill!" ”

"Uncle Fan, I have to work hard for you, you bring six cylinders of explosives to my eldest brother, and tell my eldest brother that if necessary, you can use it as much as you want!"

……

As they took orders one by one, only Zhang Song, Song Pei, and the old merchant were left in the hall, and even Mother Zhong and Mother Fan went to take care of the teenagers and got up.

"If Zhou Mingshu wants to kill me tonight, he must enter the valley. Song Jun, in your opinion, where will Zhou Mingshu enter the valley from? After being idle, Zhang Song discussed with Song Pei.

"Zhou Mingshu gathered a large number of people outside the valley, and there were a large number of internal responses in the valley, presumably to cooperate with the inside and outside, and capture the valley pass in one fell swoop, so as to enter the valley." Song Pei thought for a moment and said.

Zhang Song nodded, which had something to do with him. Except for the valley mouth, the other sides of the Green Pine Valley are high mountains, and Zhang Song has already checked and found no way to enter the Green Pine Valley. However, somehow, Zhang Song always felt that something was wrong, he thought about it carefully, but he couldn't think of the problem, so he felt that he was too nervous.

At this time, Father Fan led the teenagers to the hall, all of whom were neatly dressed, each holding a white wax pole in his hand. They had obviously learned the news that Zhou Mingshu was coming to Qingsong Valley from Father Fan, and their expressions were extremely excited, but they were a little uneasy.

Zhang Song smiled and comforted several teenagers, and said a few words of encouragement to let them relax.

After the initial commotion, there were only a few occasional shouts in the Green Pine Valley at the moment, and there was no other movement, and even the valley mouth was very quiet.

"I don't know what the situation is at Taniguchi, so I should send someone to report it." The old merchant said.

"Don't worry, Uncle Fan, after he comes back, he will be able to know the specific situation, and now the manpower is very tight, and it is difficult to send people for a while." Zhang Song comforted the old merchant and said.

The old merchant nodded, and fell silent.

"Lord, see if we go to the council hall, after all, Madame is now the master of Green Pine Valley." Song Pei suggested softly.

"Okay, I'll go over with Song Jun for a while, and I'll come back later. My father-in-law, Uncle Zhong, and two aunts stayed here, and if anyone came, I told them to go to the council hall to find me. Fan Xin, Zhong Gui, Yuan Shi, Xiaoli, you are all adults, you must protect your father-in-law and two aunts, younger brothers, and younger sisters. Zhang Song glanced at a few teenagers, thought for a moment, and said with a smile.

"Yes!"

Fan Xin, Zhong Gui, Yuan Shi, Xiaoli and others replied in unison, their voices loud and calm. Zhang Song nodded with satisfaction, the effect of this period of training on improving physical fitness has yet to be tested, but at least the mental outlook has been greatly improved.

Before leaving the council hall, Zhang Song briefly told the teenagers about the guards' skills and proper strategies, and then went to the council hall with Song Pei.

The meeting hall was already brightly lit and full of people, including Yu Minzhi, Xizi, Zhou Gu, Liu Yongsheng, etc. In addition, there were more than 20 people who were tied behind the hemp rope and were kneeling in the middle of the council hall, and some of those kneeling were crying, some were scolding, and some were simply not saying a word. The entire council hall was crowded and noisy.

"Big brother!"

Zhou Gu was the first to notice Zhang Song's arrival, and immediately broke free from Xizi's arms and rushed towards Zhang Song.

Zhang Song walked a few steps quickly, greeted him, and hugged Zhou Gu.

"Have you been good lately? Have you done your homework? ”

During this time, Zhou Gu also followed Xiaoli to learn calligraphy and practice martial arts, so Zhang Song asked this question.

"I'm very well-behaved, and my homework is always the first to be completed. If you don't believe me, you ask Sister. Zhou Gu pointed to Xizi, who was walking towards Zhang Song.

"Okay, you can. Don't come down quickly, the eldest brother has something important. Let's go, I'll take you to see the pigeons. Xizi said angrily, and at the same time glanced at Zhang Song with concern, took Zhou Gu from Zhang Song's hand and put it on the ground, and left with him.

Zhang Song straightened his shirt and walked quickly towards Yu Minzhi, who was sitting at the head of the council hall.

Yu Minzhi's eyes were cold, and he sat upright with an angry face, and when he saw Zhang Song saluting, he owed his body as a return gift.

"Zhang Song, Song Jun, you came just in time, these traitors will be handed over to you, and you can deal with them as you want." Yu Minzhi pointed at the kneeling group of people with his finger and said angrily.

Zhang Song glanced at the council hall, and everyone was looking at him, waiting for him to speak.

"Ma'am, have these people ever interrogated?"

"Not yet."

"And I'll start dealing with them?"

"Let's get started!"

"Someone! Pull that guy out and cut it down! Zhang Song pointed at the man who was still scolding, and ordered murderously.

Soon someone came up and pulled the man out, cut off the man's head amid the man's wailing, and carried his head into the council chamber.

The abrupt wail brought into the bloody head of the council hall, and what brought the council hall was a solemnity, and the council hall, which was very noisy just now, became quiet in an instant, and all the people kneeling in the council hall trembled.

Liu Yongsheng and the others looked at Zhang Song, and their eyes were also full of awe.

Zhang Song nodded secretly and said coldly, "Chen Jia." ”

"In!" Chen Jia replied in a loud voice.

"You take all these 20 or so people down, interrogate them in isolation, ask them how they agreed with Zhou Mingshu, if anyone is unwilling to speak, then cut off his head, if someone lies, also cut off his head."

"Yes!"

Chen Jia answered, and led people to drag all those people out.

"Madame! Taniguchi found no trace of the enemy! ”

As soon as the sound of horses' hooves outside the council hall sounded in everyone's ears, the messenger went to the council hall and reported the situation at Taniguchi to everyone.

"Got it, let the people who guard Taniguchi guard guard with their hearts, and don't slack off!" Yu Minzhi's order.

"Yes!"

The messenger immediately rode away.

As soon as the messenger left, Yu Xinzhi and the blacksmith hurriedly returned to the council hall.

"Sister, Tang Wen ran away, Li Mo also ran away, they all ran to the mountains, and they couldn't find it."

"Except for Tang Wen and Li Mo who ran away, did anyone else run away?" Zhang Song asked.

"No one else has run away, all of them are ...... Hey, what about people? ”

"The person was taken by Chen Jia for interrogation, and Yu Jun and the blacksmith worked hard. By the way, what about Mai Yun? Zhang Song asked.

"Mai Yun has gone with the others to reinforce Taniguchi."

"Let's go!"

While a few people were talking, Chen Jia and others escorted one person to the council hall, and the man moved into the council hall like chaff.

"Mrs. Yu, Changshang, Liu Wuzi has already confessed, Zhou Mingshu is indeed going to attack Qingsong Valley tonight, according to their agreement, Zhou Mingshu set off in the unitary time, and led the people to enter the valley first, and the inside and outside should be combined, and the valley pass was taken in one fell swoop. The main people in charge of the valley are Tang Wen and Li Mo. ”

"Liu Wuzi, how many people did Zhou Mingshu say he would bring over?"

"It's about eleven or two."

"Isn't it only Ding Sanshan and Wu Hong who follow him, where did he get a dozen people?"

"Everyone else is a villager from outside the valley."

"Except for Tang Wen and Li Mo who escaped, do you have any other accomplices?"

"No, I don't know, I also overheard Tang Wen and Li Mo's words, so I learned a little bit of news."

"Come on, take Liu Wuzi down and see ......," Zhang Song waved his hand and shouted.

"Madame spares my life, I was also deceived by Li Mo for a while, and I was confused, so I followed Zhou Mingshu, and we just wanted to drive Zhang Song and them out of the valley, and we didn't want to hurt Madame." Liu Wuzi knelt and howled loudly.

Zhang Song's hand paused for a moment, and he turned his head to look at Yu Minzhi. Yu Minzhi was extremely impatient, glanced at Liu Wuzi in disgust, did not speak, but waved his hand to let Zhang Song continue to deal with it.

"Take him down, keep an eye on him, don't let him run!" Zhang let go of his hand and waved smoothly.

Liu Wuzi was almost dragged away, but before leaving, he was still thanking Yu Minzhi for his grace of not killing.

"Haha, you're all here, don't be so nervous, there's no one outside the valley." Mai Yun's arrogant voice rang out outside the council hall.

A moment later, Mai Yun appeared in the council hall and squeezed a man out of his seat.

"No one has come yet? Now that the time is over, how can no one come? Song Pei said suspiciously.

"Could it be that the news has leaked out?" Liu Yongsheng asked.

"Impossible, when we learned the news that Zhou Mingshu was going to attack Qingsong Valley at night, Zhou Mingshu had already left."

"Set off in the middle of the unitary time, lead the people into the valley first, and the inside should be combined with the outside", "lead more than a dozen people". Zhang Song thought about what he saw in a village outside the valley this morning, and at the same time thought about Liu Wuzi's two sentences repeatedly.

After a while, Zhang Song suddenly raised his head and said, "Zhou Mingshu has entered the Green Pine Valley!" ”
