In the afternoon, although the autumn harvest has been achieved, the power of the autumn tiger is still not as good as underestimated, Brother Mao leaned on the whistle of the tulou, and cursed the leader sent to stand guard in his mouth, while cursing the Tulou gang in the cold winter and hot in the summer, and then cursed the bastards in the mountain village, it seems that only in this way can he feel a little better in the dire straits.

It is not unreasonable for Brother Mao to complain like this, this eight-meter-high tulou is not only thin and tall, but also extremely strong and thick, just a few whistles for observation and combat on the top floor, such a building is bound to form a hollow structure in the middle like a chimney because of its structure; After a day of sunlight, the entire tulou is scorched like an oven from the outside to the inside, and because of the upward flow of hot air, you can imagine the feeling of Mao Ge brand xiaolongbao on the top floor......

And Brother Mao was sent to this place where no one wants to stand guard and sentry, there is also a source, in the last time I was not able to complete the task of helping the master watch people, and the whole team was killed and injured by a piecemeal ambush on the road, Brother Mao became the object of hatred from the master to the family below, as if all the bad luck and mildew came because of him, so Brother Mao has not had a good time this year.

It's just that the son is sad every day, and Brother Mao can only suffer in such a day, hoping that one day, the brother of the Yijia family not far north of him can be promoted to such an official and a half position, and then he can go to the past to end such a torment......

Sighing, Brother Mao untied his sheepskin water bladder and poured such a mouthful of water into his mouth that had already been sunburned, this hope is good, but the ghost knows when he will be freed from such a ghost......

Outside the village, the rice fields in the distance have been harvested, all the tenants and slave households are busy in the village barn, this year's harvest is good is a good year, the lord looked at the harvested rice during this time and showed a rare smile this year, Brother Mao was fantasizing in his heart that the old man suddenly remembered that there was no merit and hard work, at least there was a tired little person, and he was in a good mood to free himself from such hardships.

Glancing at the south a little uncomfortably, Brother Mao felt that it seemed to be particularly uncomfortable today, this uncomfortable feeling could not be described, but it seemed to be so familiar, just like the last time he was ambushed on the road, like the feeling of being stared at by a wild beast in the dark, but when he looked at it, there was nothing unusual around the village......

Look at the sky, feel that if you hold on for more than an hour and get through this day, he suddenly found that from the south of the ground, suddenly there was such a row of shaking figures, originally Brother Mao thought it was just an illusion of the wind and grass shadows, but these figures did not seem to be hallucinations, as these figures gradually approached, Brother Mao finally saw that these figures were two neat lines, dressed in green clothes, and carrying spears on their shoulders!!

Seeing this team, Brother Mao desperately banged the bronze bell around him, regardless of the fact that the hammer had been burned hot, and the piercing alarm suddenly resounded throughout the village.

"Furball, what the hell are you knocking on?!" The chief guard in Li Laocai's compound pushed open the wooden door under the earthen building and roared upward.

"South! There is a large group of people walking towards the village!! Brother Mao pointed to the team of people outside and roared in the same way.

Although Brother Mao was not welcomed during this time, he would not lie about the police situation, and it was determined that an unknown armed team was coming towards the village, and all the families, tenants and guards were all making preparations in a chaotic manner, and the border of Guangxi has always been a war between large and small village weapons and local officials, although it has not undergone the corresponding drills, but it will not be out of control, it didn't take long, when the outside team lined up in formation, the defense in the village was basically formed.

Li Laocai's own compound is located in the center of the village, the whole compound not only covers a wide area, but also the courtyard wall is high and thick, and has a female wall and battlements that can be defended.

Li Laocai climbed one of the two earthen buildings with great difficulty to look out, these two buildings belong to the role of the highest observation point here, standing here, the situation outside can be seen at a glance, but Li Laocai couldn't help but gasp when he saw the team outside.

The team outside numbered about 100 people, uniformly dressed in colorful clothes, arranged in two rows on the left and right facing the village, each holding a bird gun in his right hand, and in the middle of them, two small cannons were erected facing the village, and behind them were a team of oxen, horses, and camels. Although the number of people in this team is small, the momentum and ferocious spirit displayed are really suffocating.

"Outside is the people over there, if it is an official or soldier who borrows the way, my lord is willing to entertain all the military masters with delicious food and drink!!"

Li Laocai, who was frightened, couldn't speak for a long time, and could only let his nursing house steward shout loudly, although he didn't know where such a team suddenly appeared, but everyone instinctively subconsciously put this team into the ranks of officers and soldiers, after all, except for the officers and soldiers, no local officials' team will have such a majestic formation and queue, Li Laocai has seen the soldiers under those local officials, all of them are not neatly dressed and the formation is not in order, how can there be such a posture.

On the opposite side of them, Deng Shifeng, who led the team, didn't say much, he had already handed over the command to Luo Dan, and he was completely a spectator in this battle, in order to train his troops through large and small actual battles, so that these commanders of all sizes could grow rapidly in actual combat.

"Hehe, go to two people and tell them that Lao Tzu is from the old village in the south, and he doesn't borrow the way, he only borrows Li Laocai's head to play as a ball!!"

Luo Dan rubbed his hands, roaring with a hint of excitement and the pleasure before revenge; Soon, the soldiers of the two old villages ran to the shack at the edge of the village and loudly conveyed Luo Dan's declaration of revenge to the Li Laocai family in the middle of the village.

After Luo Dan's declaration of revenge reached the village, the whole village suddenly crackled like a scoop of cold water poured into a boiling oil pot, crying and shouting. For the old village in the south, people in other places may not be impressed, but for Li Laocai, the people in their village are definitely deeply memorable, although the other party has been hiding in the dark to fight black guns in the battle last year, but the kind of coming and going without a trace, there is no trace at all, and the feeling of only walking on the road and expecting the other party not to beat himself is too uncomfortable, plus the gun rang down, the memory carved out of human life can not be profound!

Since that rout, although Li Laocai has issued a gag order not to talk about this matter, but the mouth of the people is more important than the defense of Sichuan, how can he restrict the tenants and slave households who participated in the march below to talk about this matter, everyone quietly talked to the people in the old village below, and this back and forth blew those people in the old village into various versions of fairy-like characters, which invisibly increased the fear of the old village, and today I heard that it was the people of the old village who came to take revenge...... It's strange that the village doesn't fry......

"Let everyone in the team shout together, we are only looking for trouble with Li Laocai, and it has nothing to do with other people! Give them a stick of incense and get to their knees outside the village as soon as possible, so that the guns don't have eyes! ”

Although Luo Dan had an impulse to bulldoze the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack compound in the middle now, fortunately, he also understood that it was important to come out this time to destroy the enemy, but more importantly, to snatch the population, if it was just such an indiscriminate burst of shelling...... Li Laocai's earthen courtyard will definitely not be able to resist, but the people outside the village are also suffering heavy casualties, and this tenant slave has died too much...... Aren't you busy in vain......

The time of a stick of incense is long and short, if it is said that it will not take a minute to run out of those shacks on the outskirts of the village, even the old lady with bad legs and feet can complete it in five minutes, but for people who have fallen into a panic, this time is enough for them to use, some people are not only in a hurry and can't even find the road, but even more often carry the bed at home is soft, for fear that their only valuable thing will be destroyed in the war, so that when the time given by Luo Dan is about to run out, There are still very few people who can run out of the village.

"Special Niangdi, isn't this a problem for me!"

Looking at the chaotic village, and then looking at the time left, Luo Dan was also a little anxious, although he was still a young official, but he also understood that the order could not be changed overnight, if the villagers did not withdraw according to the time, he could only give the order to launch an artillery bombardment. The artillerymen in the middle of the team had already installed the two breech guns, and Huang Shicheng, who had not been able to go to Liuzhou again the day before yesterday to open fire, was now looking at himself with a blank eye, waiting for his own order to pull the firing pipe.

"Ordered a platoon to shoot into the sky, and everyone shouted together after shooting: The gun has no eyes, and those who are out of the village will be killed and injured at their own risk!"

As Luo Dan's new order was issued, after a row of guns, the uniform sound made the people in the village understand that they did not have much time left, although the scene was more chaotic than just now, but at least the villagers were no longer entangled in taking more things, and their lives were gone...... Soon, a large number of villagers poured out of the village, young and old, deterred by the bayonets of a group of soldiers......

Seeing that the villagers were finally able to run out on time, Luo Dan glanced at Deng Shifeng next to him, if he couldn't solve this little problem by himself, it would be a shame in front of the teacher. Secretly wiping a handful of sweat, Luo Dan challenged his emotions and roared:

"Attention artillerymen, the target is two earthen buildings, give me this two-earth building sacrificial flag!!"
