With Zhao Fusheng's words at the beginning, no one in the family dared to be lazy.

Li called Guo, Wei, and Yuan Laoniang together and began to clean up the sickles, axes and other sharp tools at home.

Because Daddy Yuan's family is a hunter, Father Yuan also took out three sharp bows and dozens of sharp arrows, which are all tools that the family will use when they go up the mountain to hunt.

The young and strong men in the family were divided into four groups by Zhao Fusheng according to the number of people, a group of four people, and each of the four old ones led a team.

It starts at the beginning of the year and ends at the end of the hour.

For a total of five hours, Zhao Fuxiang took Zhao Shanyu, who had a flexible brain, and they guarded the period from midnight to subtime.

followed, Zhao Fusheng and Father Yuan took Zhao Shanlin and a few other stable guards to the time.

This time is the most critical, so the people who patrol directly sent two groups, and it is also the most.

The rest, Zhao Fujin's group, guarding between Yin Shi and Mao Shi, is the most relaxed at this time, so the people who are arranged are all young.

After arranging, Zhao Fusheng followed these children back to the house to sleep.

There is still a tough battle to be fought at night, and it is even likely that there will be a conflict, and they will all come out to resist when the time comes.

So right now, it's the most important thing for them to keep their spirits up.

Correspondingly, dinner at home was also postponed to the unitary hour, because at that time, the night vigil was possible after eating, and the body was warm and energetic.

Zhao Yu and a few small ones were simply taken back to the house by Yuan and others at this time, and Li also specially instructed them not to make noise and wake up the men in the family.

Although the Yuan family and the others did not hear what Zhao Fusheng said, the excessive busyness of the Li family in the afternoon also let them know that it was not a safe day, so they became more and more cautious.

Even the children at home were silent.

…………

In such an atmosphere, Li and others completed the preparation of weapons.

The sickles, axes, machetes, bows and arrows that were found were all packed up, and Li followed and called the ladies of the family, and all of them were moved back to their own physics to be carefully organized.

At present, because only Zhao Fuxiang's family lives in the largest place, has the most free places, and also has a whetstone for sharpening weapons, the Guo family, the Wei family, and Yuan Lao Niang all handed over their weapons to the Li family.

Li also gave a clear word, saying that the sharpened weapons would definitely be sent back.

Men can't be taken away, and women, like them, need weapons to defend themselves.

Putting the weapons into the back basket and carrying them into the hall, Li took Liu and the others to count, and simply cooked the number of weapons in this stall.

Hey, don't say it, it's quite a lot.

Not counting the kitchen knives commonly used at home, there are a total of forty-six weapons.

Among them were nine machetes, sixteen sickles, eighteen axes, and three bows and arrows.

These things, all bought from the blacksmith shop in the city, contain enough iron, not to mention the dead and heavy, the surface is cold and shining, and it is a good thing at first glance.

And most of these are owned by the Li family, who let their family have a lot of fields, and people always have to work with tools.

So when he fled, Li took all these with him.

At the moment, Li Shixin said, fortunately, I brought it, otherwise there are so many people in the family at the moment, I am afraid it will not be enough.

Of course, in addition to weapons, there are other weapons at home that are not sharp, such as iron rods, shovels, shovels, etc.

If you take it, you can also defend yourself, so the Li family packed it up.

Laying out the whetstones of the house, the people began to grind them carefully until they had sharpened the forty-six weapons and the sharp arrows.

"Quick, bring the kitchen knife at home, leave one for cooking, and grind the rest," Li roared and asked Liu to hurry up and get it.

Liu listened, nodded, and quickly took out the kitchen knife in the back kitchen and sharpened it.

At this point, all the weapons that were packed up were sorted out.

After thinking about it, counting the bows and arrows, the Li family directly left thirty for the men in the family to distribute.

The rest, counting kitchen knives, iron rods, iron rods and other tools that can defend themselves, are divided into four parts, one is kept for themselves, and the rest is sent to Yuan Lao Niang and others.

The adults in the family naturally gave one handful, and if there was any surplus, they gave it to the children in the family.

Even Zhao Yu divided a sharpened shiny kitchen knife and kept it by his side for self-defense.

………

Soon, night fell, and the time was up.

Everyone was called up for supper.

After eating, the dishes and chopsticks were cleaned up, and the women and children all went back to the main house, while the men of the family, holding the sharpened weapons, turned around and went to the side house.

This is also the result of Zhao Fusheng and others after they discussed.

Because the house they are renting now is different from the one in Shangwa Village.

The houses of the post house are all simple houses made of straw and mud.

In order to facilitate renting and at the same time expand the benefits, the front and back of the house are also houses, so this shows that there are generally no people coming in behind the main house.

But the side houses on both sides of the main house are different, they are very close to the front door, and the front door is made of straw, including the courtyard is only about two meters of earthen walls.

It's raining right now, and there are some signs of collapse of the surrounding earthen walls.

If someone comes at this time, there is a high possibility that the earthen wall will be torn down and entered.

Therefore, men go to remote houses very close to the front yard, which is dangerous but easy to find problems.

The woman and the child stayed in the main house, which was relatively safer.

Zhao Fusheng waved his hand, gathered everyone together again, and then put out the weapons in the basket.

"Let's all come here and divide a point," Zhao Fusheng pointed to the basket with iron tools, and said very calmly, "There are nine machetes, ten sickles, eight axes, and three bows and arrows here,"

"The bow and arrow belong to Brother Yuan, you can't use it, and the rest, there are sixteen of you in total, one of you will take one and use it, if you have spare strength, you can take two,"

"The rest of the weapons, left for the four of us, and some of the others, are all in the main house,"

"Remember, be vigilant, don't ignore the sound outside, if the weapon is damaged, say it in time and replace it with a new one."

At present, the main means of defense in the family still depends on themselves, so the weapons they get are the best and sharpest.

For this reason, Li specially explained that when Liu and others used whetstones, they sharpened them several times.

After selecting the weapon, the people patrolling behind hurriedly went to sleep next door, while Zhao Fuxiang and the others rested in place.

When the time comes.

Zhao Fuxiang opened his eyes and woke up Zhao Shanyu, who was still sleeping, Zhao Shanxing, Zhao Shanbiao, and Zhao Shanyun came out to inspect.

Put on a poncho, and a few people stood in the courtyard in the rain to patrol back and forth, walking back and forth between the side house and the courtyard gate.

It's still raining right now, and the rain is on the light side, and you can still hear the sound of lapping on the poncho.

Just as the hall was in the hall, the newly made Hu spicy soup was boiling in the iron pot, and the Li and Guo families were sitting at the door of the hall with axes in their hands, without resting.

They whispered as they stared at the spicy soup in the iron pot.

The first half of the night passed without incident.

Soon, the time came.

Zhao Fusheng and Father Yuan pushed the door open, followed by Zhao Shanlin, Zhao Shanchuan, Zhao Shandong, Zhao Shangang, Zheng Haoyou, Cheng Xingmeng, Yuan Jinqiu, and Yuan Jindong.

After the handover between the two sides was completed, Zhao Fuxiang and the five of them first went back to the house to drink a bowl of spicy soup, and then hurriedly wrapped their clothes and went back to the side house to sleep.

Of course, each of his weapons is kept by his side to prevent an accident and get up quickly.

At the end of the child, at the beginning of the ugly time.

There was a sudden roar outside the hospital, waking everyone up in their sleep.

Zhao Fuxiang and the others didn't want to think about it, including Zhao Shanjin and others, who had not yet been on duty at night, picked up their weapons and rushed out directly, so anxious that they didn't wear any ponchos on their bodies.

In the main house, the woman also listened to the movement.

As soon as Li fell asleep, she was woken up, she was so frightened that she quickly lit the oil lamp, and took the young child next to her into her arms and coaxed her.

"Hey, aren't you scared, eldest daughter-in-law, second daughter-in-law, go and stew a few bowls of spicy soup in the iron pot, and pour a bowl for the children to come back to their senses."

Li was worried that the children in the family would be scared, so he hurriedly asked Liu and Yuan to work.

It just so happened that there were also a few people keeping vigil at the moment, and the two got the word, nodded and went to serve the soup.

Li took the opportunity to look around the room and found that the adults were fine, but their faces were pale, the children had their own appearances, and the younger ones were scared and cried.

Zhao Yu was also confused, she was holding the quilt on her body and leaning against the corner of the wall, and the whole person couldn't react.

Hu spicy soup was served, and I quickly drank a bowl of it, and my face was a little better.

Seeing this, Li hurriedly called the children to his side, patted and hugged them one by one, and calmed his emotions, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, the milk is here to guard, we are not afraid, sleepy, the milk watches you sleep, if you are not sleepy, just play, don't make a sound,"

At this time, the movement outside had become much smaller, and Li took the opportunity to lie on the window and take a look out, and saw that the courtyard door outside was still closed, and there were people in the courtyard, so he felt that the problem was not big, so he continued to comfort the frightened child.

At the same time, his eyes motioned to Liu on the side to pay attention to the situation outside.
