%d7%cf%d3%c4%b8%f3Yan Huaiyuan is very happy. Say, "So that's it. As soon as the Tunu people came, they found out. We have plenty of time to prepare. It's just that we don't have many people, I'm afraid we can't beat them."

"The Tunu have two thousand strong men. But certainly not all of them. At least he had to leave at least half of his men behind to defend their tribe. In this way, the village only needs to face six or seven hundred enemies. In addition to the 150 strong men, Whitefish Bay can also organize some other people. For example, the elderly. They can't fight. But it can be on duty. Several old people gathered together to observe the situation while chatting. And women." Xu Guanzhong said.

"What can women do?" Yan Huaiyuan asked.

"Job. It's not enough to build a few watchtowers. It is necessary to build fences, stone walls, and so on on the way into the village." Xu Guanzhong said.

Yan Huaiyuan patted his head. "I remembered. On the way into the village, we pass through a ravine of several tens of meters. The ravine is steep on both sides. The road is in the middle. A few years ago, during the wolf plague, we threw stones into the ravine from both sides of the ravine. Killed a lot of wolves."

"Oh. There is such a good place. Take me to see it." Xu Guanzhong said.

Whitefish Bay is close to the sea. The passage from the water was unobstructed. But if you go to the village by land from the east, it will be troublesome. The mountains here are not particularly tall though. But it's also a bit steep. Due to the inaccessibility. Basically, it is a primeval forest, and all kinds of trees grow very densely. It's hard to walk. A land route into the village must pass through a small terrain of two mountains and a ravine. It's called pheasant ditch. It turns out that there are a lot of pheasants here.

Yan Huaiyuan took Xu Guanzhong over to see the terrain. Sure enough, it was as Yan Huaiyuan said. The middle way. Steep slopes on both sides. It's just not very high. The steep slope is only about ten meters. Some slopes. Climb like a rope with the help of a rope. This ditch is not long. Only fifty meters. That's enough. The Tunu tribe is nothing more than a village similar to Whitefish Bay. A tribe between hunting and grazing. And not a professional army.

"Now there are some logs and stones hidden on the top of the hill on both sides. Just be hidden. Try not to let the Tunu people see it first. Then let's make bows and arrows. Distributed to women and the elderly for use. Of course. This is used when there is no way out. If there is a way, the old man and the woman will not be allowed to fight."

"I'm used to it. There are many boys and girls on Black Dragon Island. As long as you are powerful enough, you can marry three or five. It's because a few years ago, the strong men on the island let the Great Liao Kingdom go out to fight. Most of these men who fought went out never returned. Therefore, there are many boys and girls on the island. So ah. The people of the island, both women and the elderly, are accustomed to war." Yan Huai Yuandao.

"That's going to be easy. Let's start building fortifications on both sides of Pheasant Gully today." Xu Guanzhong said.

The brawns are training. Xu Guanzhong's sailors were also to be guarded on the warship. The main force in the construction of the fortifications was women. Xu Guanzhong arranged for five soldiers to supervise the construction of the fortifications. Yan Huaiyuan called almost a hundred strong women. Don't look at women. But all of them are people who work all year round. The ability to work is not bad. Cutting down trees. Lifting stones. It's built in style.

The villagers cut down trees with old axes. The thick trees at the mouth of the bowl shook and their hands hurt when they were cut down.

"Brother Yan. Aren't there any new axes or saws in the village? How long will it take to cut down the tree like this?" Xu Guanzhong said.

Yan Huaiyuan shook his head: "The iron tools here are very expensive. A fish of 500 pounds may not be exchanged for an ordinary axe. As for something as rare as a saw. There aren't a few in the whole village."

This place is still really backward. Iron tools that seemed very common in the Great Song Dynasty were not found here. Xu Guanzhong said: "This will not work. It's too slow. Send me with an axe, a saw, a pickaxe, and a shovel."

Naval warships are naturally equipped with these things. Yan Huaiyuan sent someone to get back hundreds of tools from Xu Guanzhong. Yan Huaiyuan urged everyone to be careful. Don't damage it. After all, these things were borrowed by Xu Guanzhong.

With new tools. Work is also normal. Cut down trees and trim off branches and leaves. Then stub into logs. Logs are not used to make furniture. Rather, it rolls down from the top of the hill.

It's just a small valley though. The defense works are also not large. But after all, there are few people. There are only a hundred women. I did this little work for four days to do it well.

Yan Kuohai's side. With the assistance of the sailors, he also achieved some results. One hundred and fifty strong men. Follow the fifty-one squad. Divided into three squads. At least I can walk neatly. As for the orders and the like, they have also been reduced. It's a desperate charge and slash when you hear the sound of drums. When you hear the sound of the gong, you quickly retreat.

On the fifth day. I don't know if the Tunu people got the news in advance or what the situation is. I actually sent someone in advance. Fifty strong tribal warriors. Mainly holding bronze spears. The head of several people is qualified to hold a knife.

There is a dark whistle in Pheasant Valley, but it is not exposed. It wasn't until the Tunu were about to reach the entrance of the village that the outpost lit wolf smoke. Yan Huaiyuan immediately beat the war drums. Then Yan Huaiyuan was waiting for the Tunu people under the big tree.

It didn't take a few minutes. And the Tunu people arrived. The Tunu people who are the leader are called Tu Erxiong. It means that there are two bears. This shows that the power is extraordinary.

"Village Chief Yan. You're welcome to us. It's smoking and drumming." Tu Erxiong said.

Yan Huaiyuan said: "The guests are here and there is wine. The wolf of wealth is coming, and there is a harpoon. If you are a guest, you are naturally welcome. If you come to make trouble, you will definitely not be welcome."

Tu Erxiong shook his neck. Said: "I heard that you Baiyuwan save chicken feathers to make guts. It's also practiced, and the strong man is coming. I don't believe it yet. Now it seems to be true. Do the villagers have to be unpleasant?"

Yan Huaiyuan was happy. Haha laughed: "The folks in the countryside are not fake. But your Tunu tribe is not authentic. Taxes have been collected continuously for the past two years. The previous taxes are also counted. Not too much. But this time. When you open your mouth, you will have 100,000 catties of smoked fish. Doesn't talking hurt my back?"

Tu Erxiong pouted: "Who doesn't know that there are many fish in the sea. 100,000 catties of fish, your village will be able to catch enough in a few days."

"100,000 catties of fresh fish is naturally very easy. Do you think the fresh fish will light a fire and make itself into smoked fish?" Yan Huaiyuan said.

Tu Erxiong said: "We Tunu people are tens of thousands. Is there more than ten catties of smoked fish per person in a winter? It's good if I didn't let you pay 200,000 catties of smoked fish."

Yan Huaiyuan shouted: "Enough. From now on, Whitefish Bay will not pay you a pound of smoked fish."

Soil two bears and one leng. I didn't expect Yan Huaiyuan to be so bold. Reaching out, he pulled out his waist knife. Shouted: "Shout. Believe it or not, I'll take off one of your arms."

Yan Huaiyuan said: "You can look back."

Tu Erxiong said, "I'm not a stupid bear. I won't look back."

At this time, Tu Erxiong's subordinates touched Tu Erxiong. Tu Erxiong looked back and saw Yan Kuohai behind him with a neat one hundred and fifty strong men. The strong men are still those strong men. But it's very different. Everyone has a snow bright knife in their hands. Rushing to stare at himself with murderous intent.

Tu Erxiong had a cold war for no reason. If only in the past. These people dare to stare at themselves like this, and they are kicking them in the face. Tu Erxiong said, "I said it. It turns out that there is a guy. But a sheep is a sheep. Sheep with tusks do not become tigers. Now you can get 100,000 catties of smoked fish for free. Just give me your swords."
