This group of strange sentinels who suddenly appeared disrupted Zhiwen's original plan to set off early in the morning and rush back to Zhuolu Mountain as soon as possible.

Zhiwen was afraid that he didn't know many people, so he deliberately took the three of them to identify the nearly thirty Tanma together.

After looking around, Zhiwen, Liu Cai and Nan Nan didn't find anyone they knew.

"Brother Xiao Zhi, nothing will happen in the mountains, right?" Outside the tent, Xiaoying asked Zhiwen worriedly, her mother and brother were all on Zhuolu Mountain.

"Don't worry, the two passes, one in front and one in the back, can be easily broken." Zhiwen was relieved that he was still very confident in Zhuolu Mountain's defense system.

In the tent, the screams of killing pigs sounded from time to time, since it was determined that it was not his own people, what Xue Ping was doing now was to take people to torture these captured sentinels.

didn't want the three girls to watch this bloody scene, so Zhiwen took them outside to breathe.

Xiaoying nodded, her eyes still couldn't hide her sadness, Nan Nan and Niuniu held her hand left and right, silently comforting her.

I don't know how long it took, but the screams finally stopped, and Xue Ping came to Zhiwen with the smell of blood.

"Childe, ask clearly."

"What's wrong, who is the enemy?" Zhiwen asked, although the three girls did not speak, they all looked at Xue Ping with concern.

"I'll cut a long story short, Childe." Xue Ping's expression was solemn, "Wang Jiayin, the leader of the bandits in northern Shaanxi, after crossing the Yellow River to the west of Jinxi, somehow heard that there are countless grains and grasses in Zhuolu Mountain, so he sneaked here with a large team of men and horses, and is now in the mountains, attacking the village." ”

"Wang Jiayin? Haven't heard of it. Zhiwen shook his head, in later generations, the fame of this bandit boss is indeed not as big as Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others, and even inferior to Gao Yingxiang, "Is there anyone else, such as... Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong? ”

"This... Childe, I didn't ask, why don't I ask again? Xue Ping was a little puzzled, how could Zhiwen know about these bandit leaders who were not very famous.

"Forget it," Zhiwen said, he just asked casually, and it was still important to get down to business at the moment, "How many people are there?" ”

"Why are there more than 100,000?"

"Hiss..."Zhiwen gasped, a little uncalm, so many people, even the pile, it is estimated that they can also level the pass, Xiaoying was even more panicked all of a sudden, her mouth was deflated, and she was about to cry.

"Don't panic!" Xue Ping hurriedly said, "When I heard this number, I was also taken aback, and then asked again, most of them are homeless people who have little strength, and the elite who can really fight a war will not exceed two thousand." ”

This is about the same, Zhiwen is a little relieved, but, even so, in terms of numbers, they still have an advantage for Zhiwen.

"Why did you ask it as soon as you asked? I'm afraid that these people will not gain anything from their tight mouths. Zhiwen said.

"Childe, you don't know anything, these people are all for begging for food, a few of them are really loyal, most of them I only scared a little, just poured beans into the bamboo tube, and said it all." Xue Ping said a little proudly, "By the way, I also checked that all their sentry agents have indeed fallen into our hands, at least in two days, there is no need to worry that the bandits will learn about us, as for two days later, the bandit sentry will disappear, it will definitely attract attention." ”

"Brother Xiaozhi, you must go and save my mother and my brother." Xiaoying suddenly grabbed Zhiwen's sleeve and begged.

"Xiaoying, what are you talking about?" Zhiwen patted Xiaoying, "Aunt Song and Xiaojie are also my relatives, as well as Dazhu and Uncle Sun...... They are all my relatives, how could I not save them. ”

Speaking of this, Zhiwen glanced at Nan Nan and asked her and Niuniu to help Xiaoying rest.

After the three girls walked away, Zhiwen Zhengse said, "Xue Ping, this time is the biggest crisis we have encountered in Zhuolu Mountain, go and call Tao Yong, Hai Dongqing, Qian Guan, as well as Bagen, Oliya, Wulihan and Wumuge and others over, let's discuss how to defeat these bandits." ”

......

"Lao Gao, okay, this trick seems stupid, but it is very effective, it seems that this Zhuolu Mountain is just around the corner." Wang Jiayin said with emotion.

"The big boss has won the award," Gao Yingxiang personally supervised the battle for several days, his eyes were red from exhaustion, and he arched his hand, "If there is no accident, at most tomorrow, you will be able to climb to the top of the city." ”

Then he said hatefully, "This time it's not a ladder, I wonder if they can drive us down again." ”

In the rain battle a few days ago, Gao Yingxiang's loss could be regarded as a nerve-wracking, and then the heads of Gao Yingxiang's confidants Liu Zhe and Huanglong were hung on the city, which made his heart ache and thunder.

With his lesson, no one was willing to use his elite to go to the city to fight hard, and he had to still use the old trick - to drive the homeless people to attack the city day and night, during which he did not think of hitting the city gate with a giant tree, but the city gate seemed to be sealed, and the trunks that could be found were not heavy and thick enough, and the effect was not obvious, so he had to give up.

However, after some tossing, Gao Yingxiang came up with a ruthless move, and these days they have acted according to this trick, and the balance of victory has begun to tilt in their favor.

"Hard work, Lao Gao, rest assured, this time I laid Zhuolu Mountain, and the grain that should be distributed to you will not be less." Wang Jiayin patted his chest and promised.

......

"Dingguo, why did you let my brothers and sisters stay at the head of the city, but they didn't let the arrows go?" The old man, who has always been calm, couldn't hold his breath anymore, and couldn't help but whine and asked.

"Don't worry, Brother Yan, third brother, do you see the big leaders of those two bandits? If they appear in the city at the same time, if you can shoot together, then release the arrows, and if not, bear with them. Li Dingguo finally said his plan.

After that battle, Lao Yan and Lao San's people lost a lot of troops, and they could no longer be on duty alone at the head of the city, so Li Dingguo simply scattered all these people and added them to other teams.

The entire arrangement of the guard has been readjusted, whether it is the ordinary team members who line up to kill the enemy, or the reserve team members who deal with emergencies, the number has increased, and the people who are familiar with the usual training have been brought together, of course, in this way, the time on duty is longer.

More importantly, it is to ensure that there are at least three people with outstanding martial arts to lead the team, and if the bandits send elites to sneak attack the city, they can block the first wave of powerful attacks in time, so that ordinary team members will have fewer casualties.

However, since that day, the other party has never sent elites, and they have all made the homeless people keep climbing the ladder to send them to death.

As for Lao Yan and Lao San, Li Dingguo singled them out separately and specially guarded the city, preparing bows and arrows, but he never let them release their arrows, and this time, he finally let the two know his purpose.

"These two people..."The third child smacked his lips, "It's cunning, okay, we know, we'll keep an eye on it." ”

Wang Jiayin and Gao Yingxiang have experienced a lot of battles since the incident, and saving their lives has become an instinct, so even if Li Dingguo and they have never used bows and arrows, the two of them still subconsciously stood outside the range of bows and arrows when they supervised the war, and there was only one person who occasionally entered the range.
