I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky, the other thief didn't take advantage of the weakness of Shahe Township to go to a sneak attack, maybe like Jiang Xuan and Yan Liang, he chose to retreat. As a result, Liu Zhong and the others, who hurried back, had a false alarm.

The reason may be that these thieves think that as long as the peach forest does not fall, Shahe Township is not something they can touch. Of course, this is at the level where their strength is limited to thousands, and if any of them suddenly grows to the level of tens of thousands, it is another way of saying it, that is, with the number of people, they can also bulldoze Taolinsai!

That night, Liu Zhong led a thousand strong, hurried back to Shahe Township, immediately went to the official temple, looking for the township Zuo Wang Chong, and wanted to talk about the current situation, anxiously said: "Wang Jun, now there is a rank Wenjun who went to Luancheng County to buy grain, and the thieves attacked the plug, Jiang Sima guessed, there may be a thief who wants to rob the township, please be careful!" ”

"What? Bandits attacked the plug? And to plunder the countryside? King Xiangzuo was shocked when he heard this, and asked in shock.

"Exactly, I should have consulted the third old Jiang Gong at this time, but the time is urgent, and I have to arrange for the strong and strong village guards in case of accidents! The task of informing the villagers to take protective measures is to be left to the king! After Liu Zhong bowed down, he turned around and walked out. It can be seen that the situation is urgent.

"Oh, that's good!" Seeing this, Wang Chong paced a few steps hurriedly. Then he thought to himself: "If there is a rank Wenjun here, what will happen to him?" Well, now that Liu Zhong is leading people to guard and patrol, it shouldn't be a problem, but Liu Zhong and they really can't resist it, so it won't help even if he goes up, it's better to notify the villagers and take precautions! It's too late to escape now, well, do it, if that villager wants to fight the thief, you can also let them go and find Liu Zhong! "It's really people who only show their potential at critical moments, if it were normal, how could Wang Chong not be so thoughtful!

Wang Chong looked into the temple and shouted: "Ah Er, Lao Zhangtou, you go to each pavilion and announce that there may be thieves who are going to rob the township, let them all be smart, and the powerful ones will go to the outer trenches to help prevent one or two!" ”

"No!" Ah Er was clever, and he didn't ask, so he answered the promise and went to find the other veterans in the lawsuit and went to the various pavilions. These old and weak people couldn't get into Liu Zhong's eyes, so they were left behind, and they happened to give Wang Chong some assistants.

Of course, this does not mean that Wang Chong can be idle, he has more important things to do, that is, he led all the subordinate officials to take out all the weapons and leather armor in the official temple and distribute them to the villagers who came to support.

Although the good weapons and equipment have been transported to Taolinsai, the remaining knives are not complete, most of them are defective products, either the knife is notched, or only half of it is left, but it is also much stronger than the wooden stick in the hands of the villagers! At least there is a little bit of reliance on confronting the thieves.

After a while, the entire Shahe Township was boiling, and men and women, young and old, flocked to the fortifications on the outskirts of Shahe Township. This was a bit unexpected by Wang Chong, originally he only hoped that some of the brave villagers would be able to go to help, but what he didn't expect was that the villagers had been a lot more brave since the last time they repelled the thieves, and they were not so afraid of the thieves.

Of course, this is just a sense of psychological superiority, it is very fragile, even if it is a little contact with the killing of thieves, it will be shattered, but it is also a good direction, at least there is no psychological weakness that was afraid of thieves like a tiger before.

However, it took a long time for the villagers of Shahe to take all the precautions they could! Time passed minute by minute, except for the bright moon overhead, it was the breeze next to the ears, and there was not even a thief! But Liu Zhong didn't dare to relax a little. After all, no one can say no, and the thieves are not hiding nearby, just waiting for the moment when they relax!

The rustling sound is endless, and I can only see the shadows of the trees in the distance, which has a strange atmosphere! It makes the villagers of Shahe even more nervous, and the slightest disturbance can cause a series of reactions! Of course, this quiet time did not last long, because a team of people came running from afar!

Suddenly, the villagers of Shahe were in a commotion, although there were not many people coming, but under the moonlight, everyone could not see far away.

When everyone was able to take a look, they found that this was a team of soldiers wearing Han army uniforms, but there was a black scarf tied on their left arm, which was the characteristic of Sergeant Taolinsai, and everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!

I saw this team of horsemen, quickly came to the front, looking for Liu Zhong is report and inquiry, when I understood, there was no thief attack, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief! Their home is in the township, and if the thieves attack the township, they will inevitably suffer together!

Then, I saw that the cavalry left in a hurry, thinking that they were going back to resume their lives.

However, what this group of horsemen said to Liu Zhong with You, everyone couldn't help muttering in their hearts, this question didn't bother them for long, because as far as the eye could see, a much larger army appeared, two or three thousand people! Of course, if you look closely, you can find that some of them have no weapons in hand, while the other part is clearly dressed and armored, and it is Jiang Xuan and Yan Liang who have returned with a thousand five captives!

It turned out that Jiang Xuan thought about it and thought that instead of taking the captives to Taolinsai, it was better to escort them to Shahe Township. First, you can see if another thief invades Shahe Township, if you really encounter it, you can also help Liu Zhong one or two, and secondly, these captives will eventually be invested in the construction of Shahe Township, so it is better to take them over in one step, so as not to be escorted from Taolin again in the future.

After the villagers of Shahe saw that a group of thieves had been captured, they immediately cheered! This is something they couldn't imagine before, and they weren't afraid of these thieves before!

The next thing is simple, the villagers of Shahe greeted Jiang Xuanyan Liang and others with cheers, and handed over these prisoners to some of the strong people to watch, so that these villagers are not good on the battlefield, but they can still be competent to take care of the prisoners!

"Sima, what should I do now? Just keep it? When everything was ready, Liu Zhong asked busily.

"Of course you can't just guard it like this, I think that the thief has long been far away, otherwise it can't be without any rumors!" Jiang Xuan said with a slight smile.

"Shall we retreat then?" Liu Zhong frowned and asked. Was he afraid that in case, those thieves did not flee away, but hidden?

"You can't just retreat." Jiang Xuanshi Shi Ran said, as if everything was under control.

"If you don't keep it, you won't retreat, so what should I do? Jiang Sima, you said! Yan Liang had long been impatient on the side, and said in an urn voice.

"Now we're two teams together, two thousand people! In this way, why not divide hundreds of men and horses along the perimeter, one by one, patrol one by one, if the thieves really withdraw, there is no more to say, if they hide on the side, want to fish in troubled waters, we will find their hiding place, maybe we can still achieve a great achievement! Jiang Xuansu said.

"Well, it's okay to divide hundreds of people and inspect one or two." Hearing this, Liu Zhong thought for a moment and affirmed.

"I'll lead the team, haha, don't let me meet those kids, otherwise they will never come back!" When Yan Liang heard that there was a fight, he immediately became interested! Grinned.

"Okay, let Gong Ji lead a team of cavalry and five hundred strong men to inspect this thirty-mile radius! Be sure to check it out! Seeing this, Jiang Xuan looked at Liu Zhong and smiled, and said immediately!

"Below, take orders!" Yan Liang heard what he said, and immediately said.

The exploration of a radius of thirty miles was not very difficult for these sturdies, after all, there was no burden, and there were a hundred and ten people riding horses. In just two hours, they all returned. There was no trace of the thieves, and it seems that the thieves did not come to the boundary of Shahe Township at all.

Yan Liang's mood was quite low, which was also difficult for him, he was originally holding that there was still a battle, but he thought that it was over! After a busy night, the villagers went home one after another, of course, it is unknown how they feel, but at least the topic of Shahe Township in the next two or three months is really not to worry.

At the invitation of Xiangzuo Wang Chong, Jiang Xuan, Yan Liang and the four hundred Tao Linsai sergeants also stayed in the township, and they were not afraid of having no place to live, after all, this was their hometown. And these captives were also taken to the township, and more than 1,000 strong people took turns to watch them, and how to deal with them was to be decided tomorrow.

There was no word all night, and not many villagers had a good night's sleep this night, because most of them were excited! Almost everyone in the family was involved in this unusual night!

The sky was bright, Jiang Xuan said goodbye to his father Jiang Cheng early in the morning and rushed to the official temple of Shahe Township, after all, there were still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with and decide. After Wen Chou left, he, Sima, was the head of the army! Where can I be idle?

When Jiang Xuan came to the official temple, Yan Liang, Liu Zhong, Wang Chong and the subordinate officials of the Yitong Township Temple were already waiting for him in the lobby.

"I'm sorry, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Jiang Xuan saw that the crowd of people sitting in the lobby waited, and said with his hands.

"Haha, we've just arrived, so we can't wait long." Wang Chong, slightly, got up and greeted Jiang Xuan. The others also stood up to salute.

After Jiang Xuan returned the salute one by one, he came to the left head and knelt down, opposite Wang Chong on the right.

"Ahem, now, there are so many more captives, let's talk about your opinions!" Jiang Xuan didn't go around the bend anymore and said bluntly.

After all, everything else can be slowed down, but this captive is the same, but it can't be slowed down, because these two or three thousand people have to eat, and now the grain and grass are urgently needed in Shahe Township, and their own use is still insufficient, so can they give a part of it to these thieves who originally wanted to rob them?

But if it is killed like this, it is impossible, the villagers will definitely not agree, this is an option that no one will think about; Let them go and let them fend for themselves, I'm afraid they will run back to be thieves again, and they will suffer in the future! Still won't work.

After a morning of discussion, nothing was achieved, and in the end, everyone still made a decision, and after Wen Chou returned, he would make a decision.

This shows the position of Wen Chou in everyone's hearts!
