Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Aborigines Descend the Mountain

Zhu Houhuang only felt that he was in a hurry, and most of the land he had reclaimed in half a year was washed away by the flood. There are also signs of plague popping up, which is really a blessing and a curse. But now, there is no other good way but to hold on.

Although the rain stopped, the sky was still overcast, and I didn't know when the storm would come back. Even if Zhu Houhuang went to Fujian to ask for help, it was impossible.

"Your Highness, Your Highness. There is wolf smoke. Someone staggered to Zhu Houhuang's side, pointed to the east, and said, "Wolf smoke." ”

Zhu Houhuang couldn't help frowning, raised his eyes, and saw a straight pillar of smoke rising into the sky in the east. Zhu Houhuang instantly remembered where and where it was, it was Wang's house.

The land reclaimed by Zhu Houhuang in Dayuan was reclaimed along the coastline, and did not go deep into Dongyong Island, and the only building that went deep into Dongyong Island was Wang's house, which was a tujialou where Wang Zhi's family lived together.

Originally, Zhu Houhuang did an experiment, if the tulou could effectively resist the attack of the Turen, then Zhu Houhuang would use this method to expand in Taiwan in the future. And because of the geographical location of Wangjialou, Tang Yin also made waste use and opened an exchange with the Turen near Wangjialou. Salt, iron, and grain in exchange for wild man's prey, animal skins, and the like.

The guard against the savages has long been relaxed. It's just that I never expected that at this time, the natives in this place would burn wolf smoke.

Zhu Houhuang didn't have many people under him for a while, and Wu Ming also noticed this and said, "Your Highness, go and take a look." ”

Zhu Houhuang said: "Go alone." ”

Wu Ming said: "Your Highness, since the wolf smoke has been lit in Wangjialou, it means that there must be an explanation, and please take care of your royal highness." ”

Zhu Houhuang laughed, with a bitter taste, and said: "Lone only has this foundation, if this place is in the soup, Lone will die here." ”

As Wu Ming said, when Zhu Houhuang and Wu Ming saw the wolf smoke, Wang Jialou handed over here.

"How?" Wang Zhi was on the roof of the circular building, looking down, but saw a dense crowd of wild people, gathered together, took out long sticks in their hands, and even held bone weapons, which looked extremely simple, but Wang Zhi had explained to these people and knew that these people were extremely rudimentary. But the ferocity of these people who survive in the mountains is not easy to deal with.

"Brother Zhi'er, they want food. Kill all of us if we don't give food. One of the young men stammered, "Why don't we give them food." ”

Wang Zhi snorted coldly and said: "What to give, how much to give is not enough to satisfy their appetite, you don't look at how many of them are, so many people, you just give them all our food, and they will not be satisfied." It's only going to get an inch. ”

Wang Zhi came out of the probe from above, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he immediately retracted it, but saw a javelin smashed into the place where Wang Zhi had just probed, although this javelin was just a sharpened short stick, it was deadly enough. Wang Zhi was furious, grabbed the javelin, and threw it out with his backhand, Wang Zhi threw it without any precision, I don't know, it was the blind cat touching the dead mouse, or the people below were standing too densely, just throw him down, he heard a scream, and a person was stabbed to death below.

There was silence below, and then there was another uproar. They screamed in strange noises, and there were countless feet on the ground together.

Wang Zhi looked down through his head again, but saw dozens of people hanging a huge tree with two people holding together with ropes, and moved towards Wang's house little by little.

"Battering ram." Wang Zhi couldn't help but grit his teeth secretly, and hurriedly explained: "Then a few are guarding here, don't let them climb up." Immediately, Wang Zhi bypassed the burning wolf smoke, immediately ran to the bottom, and shouted loudly: "All the men, women and children of the Wang family come here." ”

This time when I came to Dongyong, the older members of the Wang family stayed in Penghu with Mr. Wang. Most of the people here are of the younger generation, so although Wang Zhi is young, he has the dual support of Wang Laozhi and Zhu Houhuang to become the supervisor here. He didn't have time to talk nonsense, and said: "Now the group of wild people outside are going to knock on the door, and when the gate is opened, it will be when my Wang family will destroy the door." No matter who it is, they will come and do their best. ”

The gate of the tulou is a pair of wooden doors, heavy wooden gates, although it is new, but the hardness can still be trusted, but there is only one horizontal wood behind the door of this wooden door, usually there is no problem, but at this time the outside is smashed with a battering ram, how can it be supported.

For a while, almost all the people of the Wang family gathered behind the gate, and everyone was crowded, almost blocking the wooden door.

"Boom." With a bang, the whole wooden door shook, and even in the door hole, there was sand and soil falling down, and the whole wooden door seemed to jump, trying to struggle out of the place.

Dozens of Wang's men were pressed dead behind the door.

"Boom." Several people were knocked down by the wooden door.

"It's not the way to go." Wang Zhi said secretly in his heart. He acted immediately, and instead of rushing to the door, he immediately ran in the opposite direction. After a while, I collected some vegetable oil and clothes.

I have to say that this tulou is still quite sturdy, and there are no major problems in the storm, the only problem is that the heavy rain separates this place from the connection with the big man. Although the firewood was almost exhausted by the heavy rain for several days, it was not without a little fire in Wang's house, and Wang Zhi finally found this clothes and vegetable oil.

In fact, all Wang Zhi found was vegetable oil, and the clothes were a last resort.

Until the Ming Dynasty, I don't know what a shortage of materials is. Some cloth made Zhu Houhuang, the king, a little worried, and a few clothes also made Wang Zhi feel distressed. Wang Zhi ran to the roof of the building in a few steps, soaked the clothes in vegetable oil, and then knitted them together, coarsely woven into a large net, he found an opportunity on the roof, lit a fire and threw it down.

A net of fire descended from the sky on the battering ram.

The frightened savages suddenly dispersed, and the long log fell to the ground with a bang, rolling in several circles. Several pieces of clothing were still burning, but it was unlikely that they would lead to a battering ram.

"Damn." Wang Zhi scolded secretly, but he knew that this was also the way it should be, and the rainstorm in the past few days had soaked everything.

Wang Zhi is not unprepared here, he actually has a lot of bows and arrows here, and there are also some firearms, but these bows and arrows and firearms are all damp. It simply doesn't work.

However, it would be nice if these clothes could disrupt their attack a bit.

Wang Zhi knew the level of these savages, and they had been interfering, and the chance of them wanting to open the gate was almost zero. He immediately called several young people and said, "Whoever moves the log from here will smash it, who knows?" ”

"But what are we going to do?" Ask around.

Wang Zhi knew that he was not well prepared, and he didn't prepare any rolling stones at all. He looked around and gritted his teeth and said, "Tear down the house and smash it down." ”

"Yes."

This Wang's house is newly built, for modern people, it looks just like this, it is very uncomfortable to live in, and it is not eye-catching. But for the ancients, it was the inheritance of generations. These Wang family members were distressed, but they also knew that they couldn't be reluctant to demolish it from upstairs. It's just that this kind of adobe house, even if it is dismantled, there is no hard stone, I don't know if it will work.

Wang Zhi immediately went down, and took this opportunity to pile up a lot of things behind the door, what grinding discs, what stones, and other things were pressed behind the door, blocking the entire doorway. Wang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and said secretly: "At this moment, the people outside will not be able to break through here for a while, and all we can do is wait." ”

Sure enough, under Wang Zhi's various means, the natives had no way to take the tulou at all, and they surrounded it for a long time, smashed the door with a battering ram countless times, and even smashed the wooden door outside out of the hole. Get ready to bypass here and head to the seaside.
