Chapter 44: Looting Grain

On the second day, Mu Chenghu took the young adults in the village down the mountain.

Mu Chenghu looked at Gukou and said to Mu Chengtian, "Chengtian, you take some people to block Gukou." ”

Mu Chengtian nodded, turned around and called a few people, and went towards the valley mouth.

Mu Qingshan looked at Mu Chengtian who was going away, and asked with some expectation, "Then what are we going to do?" ”

"Uncle Thirteen, you and I will each take a group to move some stones and put them ten meters from the bottom of the valley." Mu Chenghu said quietly.

Mu Qingshan frowned, looked at the stretching mountains on both sides, and said with some uncertainty: "The mountain is so long, I'm afraid we won't be able to finish it in two days." ”

"You don't have to do it all, you just have to move some rocks in the middle and pile them there." Mu Chenghu knew that what he said just now was indeed confusing, so he had to quickly explain to Mu Qingshan.

After hearing this, Mu Qingshan nodded his head and walked towards the opposite mountain.

Mu Chenghu said to the rest of the people, "This is our business, the big guy must come on, get this place done today, and there are other things waiting for us tomorrow." ”

After Mu Chenghu said this, he took the big guy to lift the stone.

On the mountain, Mu Yao raised her somewhat red and swollen hand, and looked at the people around her to see if they were embarrassed to be lazy.

After all, even children of a few years old are now moving sticks and rubbing ropes, and everyone is busy contributing their own strength.

In the evening, after Mu Chenghu returned to the camp, he hurriedly took a look at the wooden sticks and ropes that everyone had sharpened during the day.

"Third child, hurry up and come over to eat, you've been busy all day, aren't you hungry?" Han shouted from a distance.

Mu Chenghu took a general look and went back to eat satisfied.

Mu Chenghu squatted beside the bonfire with a big bowl, looked at the gobbling crowd and said, "While the big guys are here, I'll arrange tomorrow's work, and after dinner, everyone will hurry back to rest, and the next two days will be busy." ”

When everyone heard this, they slowed down their meals.

Mu Chenghu continued: "Tomorrow, Cheng Tian will take a few people to dig a big trap in the middle of the valley, lay a wooden board on it, and sprinkle a layer of mud and fine stones on it, remember to scatter more, so as not to let people see it, and when people go in, they will pull the wooden plank away." I have already arranged for Carpenter Chen to make it for you today, and you can ask Li Tiehammer for the iron bar, and I have already arranged for him to prepare it when I leave in the morning. ”

As soon as Mu Chenghu finished speaking, Li Tiezhu stood up and said a little helplessly, "Village chief, the iron rod you want is even worse, my father and I are really too busy." ”

Mu Chenghu then remembered that the young and middle-aged people on the mountain had been taken away by himself, and there were some old people left on the mountain, so it was reasonable that Uncle Li and the two of them were not busy coming.

Thinking like this, Mu Chenghu opened his mouth and said, "I'm afraid that after the big guy finishes eating, he will have to give Uncle Li and them a hand." ”

The crowd nodded and said there was no problem.

Seeing this, Mu Chenghu continued to arrange: "Tomorrow, Chengzhu will take the big guy to tie these wooden sticks and ropes in a row and make them into traps, once the enemy enters the mountains and forests, we will cut the rope and make the wooden sticks stab at the enemy." ”

Mu Chengzhu patted his chest and said that there was no problem.

After the meal, the group began to help Li Tiezhu's father and son forge iron rods, burning the fire, striking the iron, and finishing it near midnight.

Mu Chenghu looked at the iron rods on the ground, and thought that this batch at night was indeed not as good as the batch during the day, and it seemed that he would have to arrange two people to learn to strike iron in the future. Otherwise, Uncle Li's father and son would not be busy at all.

The next day, as soon as dawn Mu Chenghu and others went down the mountain with ropes, wooden sticks and iron rods.

Fortunately, after a busy day, Mu Chenghu and his party made all the preparations.

Before going to bed at night, Mu Chenghu was not at ease and called everyone to him to talk carefully about the next day's work.

After Mu Chenghu finished arranging, he turned around and asked, "Second brother, do you think there are any other problems?" ”

"You've got a good idea, as long as nothing happens." Mu Chengru brushed up Mu Chenghu's plan again and again.

When Mu Chenghu heard this, his heart finally let go of half of it, after all, this matter was also the first time for Mu Chenghu in his previous life and this life.

The next day, as soon as the morning dawned, Uncle Wei went to the valley mouth to guard, while the two Mu Chengtian brothers took a few people to guard the middle part of the valley, and Mu Chenghu and Mu Qingshan each brought a team of men and horses to guard the mountains on both sides.

Near noon, the big guys were a little hungry, and the convoy carrying grain had not yet entered the valley, and the big guys were a little anxious.

In the afternoon, just when Mu Chenghu was about to give up, a flock of birds suddenly arose in the mountains in front of the valley.

"Get everyone ready, they're coming." Mu Chenghu whispered to the person next to him.

The person next to him raised a branch and shook it three times in the opposite direction, and the person opposite him also raised a branch and shook it three times.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a team carrying grain to enter the valley.

The leader suddenly turned around and said to the people behind him, "Something is wrong here today, and the big guys cheer me up." ”

As soon as the people behind heard this, Shunma pulled out his knife.

When Mu Chenghu saw this scene, his palms began to sweat.

What if these people don't fall for it, have they found something? Could it be the flock of birds that just flew up? In an instant, countless thoughts flashed in Mu Chenghu's heart, and just when Mu Chenghu was thinking about it, the team carrying grain entered the encirclement.

The two Mu Chengtian brothers pulled the planks that had been sunk into them from both sides of the valley, and many people who were holding grain fell into the trap without wiping them for a while.

"There is an ambush, hurry out of the valley." The leader shouted with a knife raised.

"My lord, it's not good. The exit to the valley was blocked. One of the people running in front shouted.

"Withdraw, get out of the valley at once." The leader did not look back, not knowing that the retreat was broken.

"Smash, smash me." Mu Chenghu looked at the mess of the grain team, and hurriedly picked up a big stone and threw it to the bottom of the valley.

"My lord, I can't get out." A man who was carrying grain looked at the rows of shining iron thorns in the trap in the middle of the road and said in horror.

As soon as the leader saw that the retreat was broken, he shouted, "Rush up from both sides and kill them, or none of us will want to live." ”

As soon as the leader said this, dozens of his subordinates began to rush up the mountain as if they were dying.

How could Mu Chenghu and the others let them succeed, Mu Chenghu and the others picked up the stone and threw it wildly.

The leader looked at his fallen subordinates one by one, and shouted angrily, "You small people have the ability to come down and fight." ”

It's a pity that Mu Chenghu and his group are very desperate for their lives, how can they be fooled.

The chieftain, knowing that the tide was turning, ran up to the side of the hill, ready to pull some men on their backs.

It's a pity that he and several of his subordinates managed to avoid the stones and walk up the mountain forest, but they were injured by the wooden rafts cut down by Mu Ergou and a few people.

The leader flipped backwards, dodging the raft and the stones above his head, and the leader had to duck quickly into the woods.

"You go, leave this person to me." Wei Ran knew that this leader had some skills, so he asked Mu Ergou and the others to retreat.

"You're good, young man, but it's a pity that you met me." Wei Ran said with some regret

The leader looked at Wei Ran, who was over half a hundred years old, and didn't pay attention to it at all, raised the knife in his hand and slashed at Wei Ran.

Wei Ran had already guarded against him and waited for him to come, Wei Ran had already ducked to the side and stabbed him in the heart with a sword.

After the leader of the grain team fell, the people on the mountain couldn't help but come down to mend the sword.

When it was almost dark, Mu Chenghu and the others finally dealt with the dozens of people in the grain team.

After Mu Chenghu arranged for everyone to clean up the battlefield, he asked everyone to dig a pit outside the valley and bury these people.

Everyone didn't say anything all the way, the main thing was that it was the first time to do this, and everyone couldn't stand it.

Everyone was a little happy to have solved the food crisis temporarily, but Mu Chengru, who was in the camp, frowned when he looked at the grain brought back by the big guys.
