The mother and daughter rushed to the East Compound, where the people had already distributed weapons. The victims of the reclamation squatted together in groups to chat and make a lot of noise, while the original migrant workers and tenants in the East Compound were among the victims and separated them to avoid mixing. Zhou Sen and Lu Axe, as well as a few cooks, squatted on the steps of the well and chatted.

Zhou Sen was also a little anxious, it was this time, and he didn't see Shen Wan.

When he saw Zhu and Shen Huimin hurrying to the East Compound, Zhou Sen knew that there was an accident. When Zhu walked straight towards him, his suspicion was confirmed more and more. Lu Axe and a group of cooks saw that Zhu was looking for Zhou Sen, and they got out of the way.

"Zhou Sen, there are nearly 10,000 mobs approaching Nie Jiaqiao, it is estimated that they will arrive in about two hours, the number of people has greatly exceeded our expectations, what can you do?"

Sure enough, something happened.

When Zhu asked Zhou Sen what he could do, Zhou Sen knew that Shen Wan would definitely not be able to lead everyone to fight.

Without the leadership of Shen Wan, a superpower, the Shen family's compound is in danger. Zhou Sen knew the power of superpowers, which was why he had never worried about the safety of the Shen family, and now, Shen Wan had not returned, and the situation immediately took a sharp turn for the worse.

"If there is no way, it is still too late for us to evacuate the Shen family." Seeing Zhou Sen's brows, Zhu suddenly became nervous.

"What about after evacuating the thousands of people in the Shen family's compound?" Zhou Sen asked.

“…… At least avoid the mob. ”

"I can foresee that after the evacuation, the entire Nie Family Bridge will collapse, and the Shen family will disappear completely, losing the food and materials in the East Compound, it will be difficult for the Shen family to make a comeback, and if there is no food, the thousands of people who have opened up the land for the Shen family will also evolve into a mob, and at that time, the Shen family will fall into a catastrophe."

"It's not going to work, that's not going to work, that's ...... That...... What to do? You've got to figure it out! The anxious Zhu finally became anxious.

"Evacuation is also a dead end, staying is also a dead end, since they are all dead, we simply break the kettle and fight against the water, maybe there is a glimmer of life."

"Okay, that's it." Zhu is not as indecisive as ordinary women, and immediately made a categorical decision.

"Mom, why don't you go first."

"No, I was born as a member of the Shen family, and I died as a ghost of the Shen family, I have been working hard for this yard all my life, and now your father's whereabouts are unknown, even if I die, I will die in the Shen family!" Zhu's face was resolute.

"Mom......" Hearing her mother's decisive words, Hui Min was so anxious that she straightened her feet.

"Huimin, you go to the West Courtyard first."

"Mom, I'm ......"

"Immediately!" Zhu Shi said sharply.

"......" Shen Huimin opened her mouth and didn't speak, tears rolled in her eyes, she glanced deeply at Zhou Sen, turned around and ran towards the west courtyard.

"Zhou Sen."

"Ma'am."

"I have a reluctant request."

"Madame, please."

"If our Shen family has any three strengths and two weaknesses, please be sure to protect Huimin." Zhu's expression was extremely solemn.

"I'll give it my all." Zhou Sen's face was blank, and Shen Huimin's deep eyes were circling in his brain, and in those eyes was trust in him.

"Okay, now, I'll let you deploy all the people, and all the materials in the East Compound can be called."

"Madame, don't worry, with a group of mobs, it is not so easy to defeat the Shen family."

Zhou Sen bowed to Zhu, turned and stepped onto the steps of the well, stood on the railing of the well, and looked down at the tenants and workers who were noisy in the dark.

"Everyone, I am Zhou Sen, entrusted by my wife, I will command everyone to fight the mob."

"Zhou Sen, good job!" Lu Axe lifted the heavy iron axe, and the sound of the urn cheered for Zhou Sen.

"Zhou Sen, it's up to you this time!" Chef Peng raised the butcher knife in both hands and laughed.

"With Zhou Sen out of the horse, what are we afraid of."

……

When the workers in the East Compound saw that Zhou Sen was actually commanding the battle, they cheerfully cheered for Zhou Sen one by one.

For a long time, the East Courtyard has been pressed down by the West Courtyard, not only doing heavy physical work, but also having no place to speak in the Shen family, let alone status, since Zhou Sen came to the East Compound, the East Courtyard has raised its eyebrows a little, and even the rare lady often appears in the East Compound, which makes everyone feel more faced.

"Thank you all for your support!!"

Zhou Sen pressed his hand, and the east compound of more than 5,000 people immediately became silent.

No one noticed that at this time, Zhou Sen seemed to have changed as a person, and his gestures were awe-inspiring, and his solemn face was even more respectful.

"First of all, I want to tell you the bad news, the mob will arrive at Niejiaqiao in more than two hours at most, and they have a large number of people, maybe tens of thousands, more than twice as many as us."

"Tens of thousands of ......"

"Ah...... Twice as ......" immediately resounded in the courtyard with a cacophony of noise.

Hearing that the mob numbered in the tens of thousands, the people who had been full of confidence immediately became panicked. The people in the East Compound are all honest ordinary people, who have never received military training, and their psychological quality is extremely poor.

"Well, you know the situation." Zhou Sen waved his hand, and the courtyard quickly quieted down, "Then, now, I want to tell you another thing, here, everyone knows, is the Shen Jiadong compound." Zhou Sen paused, "However, there is one more thing that you may not know, this is not only the Shen Jiadong compound, here, there are our grain all winter, agricultural materials and other materials after the beginning of spring, if this courtyard collapses, I can tell you very clearly that everyone can't survive this cold winter." ”

……

There was a suffocating silence in the huge East Compound, and a pin drop could be heard.

Everyone knows that Zhou Sen is right, this yard is gone, and they don't want to survive this winter, especially those who have wandered in the wilderness.

In this harsh winter, food alone is not enough, there is also a warm place to stay, otherwise, there is no hope of survival.

"Now, we have two choices, first, to leave the East Compound immediately and make a long journey in this snowy winter, looking for the next safe place to wait for the next year's spring flowers. Of course, it takes excellent luck to choose this path. First of all, you should bring enough food and warm clothes and bedding; Secondly, it also requires God to worship the Buddha and not encounter the victims of burning, killing and looting along the way; Finally, find a safe place to stay. I think that at this time, the Han Empire should not be able to find a few safe places. ”

"The first one we don't consider. What about the second? Surprisingly, this time it was the reckless axe who spoke again.

"The second one is simple, stay in the Shen family, protect the Shen family, and live and die with the Shen family. Here, I also want to tell you that if you stay in the Shen family, you have a better chance of surviving, although the enemy is twice as many as us, but they are unorganized and undisciplined, and they will scatter in a hurry when they encounter danger. And we have neat clothes and the strong backing of the Shen family. They were short of money and food, hungry and cold, cold and hungry. And we, well-fed and warmly clothed, the grain in the warehouse is piled up, and we can't finish eating. As long as we are united as one, no one will want to step into this courtyard for half a step! ”

"In addition, it is not safe to stay in the Shen family, because we are facing tens of thousands of moles, they are no longer kind and simple people, they have become man-eating beasts one by one. It takes courage and determination to defeat them! Here, I want to remind those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, if you feel that it is not worth fighting for your future, then, leave the Shen family as soon as possible and leave this courtyard! ”

"Mr. Seven, open the door." Zhou Sen shouted to the porter.

"Yes." Mr. Seven, who had been drowsy for a long time, also became nipple at this time, and immediately opened the door.

"If you don't want to stay in the Shen family to fight, you can leave!" Zhou Sen was stunned word by word.

“……”

There was a commotion in the courtyard, but no one left.

"Well, since no one wants to leave, then, get ready to start fighting!"

"Fight!" Lu Axe suddenly raised the iron axe and roared loudly, his voice was thick and full of a sense of male power.

"Fight, fight!" The workers in the East Compound raised their hoes and poles.

"Fight, fight!"

"Fight, fight!"

All the people in the East Compound raised their weapons in their hands, and the majestic shouts of the men set off waves of air, like a tide, pouring mountains and seas, and the sound shook the sky, and the earth shook.

Inexplicably, people have an urge to boil their blood.

The raging war intent is burning.

Zhou Sen raised his arms high, and the boiling East Compound immediately fell silent.

"To the east of Niejiaqiao, there are five vertical and horizontal streets, which are connected to each other and lanes, and the East Street and Loofah Street, where the Shen family is located, are the only way for the mob. But now, we are not only trying to stop the mob from invading the Shen family, but we also want to keep the enemy far away from the Shen family's courtyard, so that they can't approach the Shen family at all. In Niejiaqiao, there are still many small lanes, if we block the tail of East Street, those mobs will become a small group, enter the loofah street and those dense lanes, as long as those mobs are scattered, they will not be terrible, because, the population of our Niejiaqiao exceeds 100,000, and our Shen family alone has more than 5,000 elite laborers, and we can easily defeat them, okay, start fighting! ”

Zhou Sen gave an order, and thousands of strong men began to carry grain in the warehouse, and built a thick "city wall" at the end of Dongjie.

Seeing thousands of men carrying grain to build the city wall in an orderly manner like worker ants, the Zhu family had an intuition that the Shen family's crisis this time was resolved.

The soldiers are divided into two ways.

Just when the east compound was building the city wall, the Shen family began to notify the residents of Nie Jiaqiao to take refuge, and the residents ran to the wilderness with the soft ones, or went to relatives, and some simply hid in the Shen family. However, it is the ordinary people who can avoid the disaster, and those large families can only stick to their own homes.

Minutes and seconds passed.

In just a few tens of minutes, thousands of people built a city wall made of grain and bricks at the end of Dongjie, the city wall is three meters high and seven meters thick, and the back is stacked into a ladder, and people can directly climb the city wall.

In addition to building a wall at the end of the street, a wall was also built against the wall on the east side of the east compound, and the wall made of grain and bricks was slightly lower than the wall, and people stood on it, and the wall could be used as a cover.

Just when the workers were in full swing, Zhou Sen was chatting with Zhu.

"Zhou Sen, you are a general." Zhu sighed.

"I don't know if Madame has a confidant?" Zhou Sen didn't answer Zhu and asked.

"Henchman?"

"Yes, henchmen, henchmen who can sacrifice their lives for the Shen family, and of course, the most important thing is to be able to keep secrets."

"Yes." Zhu nodded affirmatively.

"Very good, madam, you can make them disguise themselves as beggars now, and when there will be chaos, blend into the mob, and when the mob and the Shen family are in a stalemate, let them shout a few times, 'The Zhao family has food, let's go to the Zhao family'."

"Well, tell me why." Although Zhu knew the reason, he wanted to hear Zhou Sen's analysis.

"The mob is not so easy to deal with, they have nothing to lose except their lives, if they can't grab food, they still die, between life and death, they have become outlaws, if we don't let the mob divert, it will cause huge losses to the Shen family, so, the only way is to move the target of the mob to the Zhao family as soon as possible to relieve the pressure on the Shen family."

"I'll arrange it."

Zhu glanced at Zhou Sen meaningfully, and then walked towards the west courtyard. This young man's view of the overall situation made people like the shrewd Zhu family have a trace of awe.

Just when the Shen family was in full swing to build a defensive line, there was a shout of killing outside the town, and the busy workers hurriedly climbed the city wall made of grain.

Because of the high and far-sighted view, people can clearly see that on the official road outside the town, dense crowds of people are pouring over like a tide, giving people a feeling of numbness on the scalp.

Zhou Sen heard the shouting, and hurriedly climbed up to the city wall at the end of the street, and began to call on people to throw the porcelain that had been prepared long ago outside the city wall.

Crackling......

There was a burst of explosions like firecrackers, and some jars of porcelain were thrown out and fell to the ground, immediately turning into countless sharp porcelain pieces.

After a burst of wild throwing, under the command of Zhou Sen, hundreds of people raised hoes, flat poles, kitchen knives, sickles and other things to stand on the city wall, just a few minutes, the tide of people had already poured over, and when they approached the Shen family's compound, they began to spread out, overwhelming, extremely spectacular.

The workers on the city wall looked at the more and more victims, and they could only wait for the moment of confrontation.

In fact, at this time, it was too late to even run, because under the city wall were dense workers and disaster victims, and they couldn't see the overwhelming mob outside, crowded together layer by layer, forming a thick human wall.

It's close!

It's getting closer!

Suddenly, the sky was dark, and the bricks flew all over the sky, and the people of the Shen family were caught off guard, and their heads were smashed and bleeding, and the workers on the city wall and the victims of the wasteland were hugging their heads, and even the workers in the East Street were also affected.

Fortunately, after a burst of bricks, the situation suddenly reversed.

The shouting mob let out a scream, it turned out that most of those mobs did not have any good shoes, in this cold season, some of the shoes were soaked in water and had rotted, stepped on the sharp porcelain pieces on the ground, and immediately pierced, and the feet were dripping with blood, and they screamed in pain.

It was so crowded that the mob could no longer throw bricks with their hands and feet.

However, the charge did not stop, for the mob with stabs under its feet was squeezed in or trampled under the feet of the mob like a tide of people behind them.

At this time, the mob was crowded together, there was no room to throw bricks, and the inside of East Street was safer than it was at the beginning.

A savage, primitive slaughter began.

At the beginning, the battlefield was mainly concentrated at the end of Dongjie Street, where the street less than 20 meters wide was densely packed with thousands of people, and the mobs frantically rushed up, and under the huge thrust behind, some mobs actually stepped on people's heads and shoulders to climb up the city wall, as long as they climbed up, the flat hoes on the city wall immediately swarmed up......

Blood splattered.

Murderous boiling.

It was the most savage of battles, with no sharp weapons, no well-trained soldiers, and some honest peasants, whose weapons were hoes, scythes, sticks, and teeth.

Someone kept climbing, someone kept falling, and those who fell were immediately trampled into meat sauce by the tide of people. Those mobs were extremely brave, they were simply not afraid of death, and some of them actually grabbed the weapons stabbed from the city wall out of thin air and pulled the people down the city wall by force. Among them, some powerful mobs actually began to pull the sacks of the city wall with their bare hands.

In the distance, some people began to dismantle houses and make siege tools out of the wood on top of them......

The end of the small East Street has become a hell for the devil, shouting and killing, screaming, shouting, and ringing loudly. At this time, people have forgotten about fear, and are just mechanically fighting, resisting, and attacking with the weapons in their hands.

There were more and more corpses outside the city walls, and under the corpses, the city walls were getting shorter and shorter, and the situation was urgent.

Immediately, someone began to carry food non-stop.

The power of the crowd was revealed again, and in just ten minutes, the city wall at the end of the street increased by more than two meters, reaching five meters as a whole, and the back has been extended into a slope, even if the wall is demolished, it will not collapse.

Injured people are being replaced.

As time passed, the mob began to show signs of fatigue in attacking.

After all, the mob was not a well-trained soldier, they relied on the large number of people at the beginning, and with the courage of the moment, the morale was high, and they attacked wildly. In fact, they were cold and hungry one by one, and their physical strength had long been exhausted after a long journey, and the small city wall was not only not destroyed, but as it became higher and higher, the willpower of the mob began to waver, especially the mob in front of them, who were injured under their feet, and the pain was unbearable, and they began to retreat.

The back rushed forward, the front retreated, and soon, the mob that was all united in one heart crowded together, chaotic, and without the sharpness of the beginning.

"The Zhao family has more food, everyone go to the Zhao family!"

"Yes, yes, the Zhao family is in Qiaoxi, we can go around it......"

“……”

At the moment when the battle was at a stalemate, suddenly, someone shouted in the crowd, and some people echoed, and the mob, which had been in turmoil because of the long-term attack, immediately retreated like a tide and rushed into those alleys.

It came and went as fast as it came, and in just a dozen minutes, thousands of mobs disappeared without a trace, leaving rubble and corpses and wailing wounded everywhere.

Zhou Sen and Zhu ascended the city wall, and in front of them was a devastation, in addition to rubble and corpses and wounded, there was also a mess of weapons.

In just one hour of fighting, the end of Dongjie Street has become a ruin, and countless houses on the other side have been demolished, the walls are broken, and some houses are still rising black smoke.

The Shen family also paid a heavy price.

Twenty-seven people were killed, 56 were seriously injured and some were slightly injured. The main cause of death and serious injury to the Shen family was the first wave of brick attacks, because the Shen family was not wary of the mob using flying bricks as an attack weapon, and some workers were caught off guard and were directly killed by the flying bricks.

"Thank you, Zhou Sen." Looking at the end of the messy East Street, the frightened Zhu breathed a long sigh of relief and finally got through the crisis.

Zhou Sen waved his hand at the people around him and motioned for them to go down.

"Madame, there is a very important matter for you to decide now." After those workers left the city wall, Zhou Sen said with a serious face.

"Say."

"Excuse me, do the Zhao family and the Shen family have a deep hatred?" Zhou Sen's gaze was incomparably deep.

"The Zhao family...... This is not true, it is generally a commercial competition, although the Zhao family is a little despicable and shameless, but it does not exceed the duty of a businessman. Zhu hesitated for a moment and said.

"Well, the Zhao family is now inexorable, I don't know what Madame's plans are?"

"Why do you say this, please say it directly!" Zhu frowned and looked at Zhou Sen.

"Madam, the Zhao family and the Shen family have formed a competitive trend in Nie Jiaqiao, and no one can dominate, and in fact, this is a good thing, because with the Zhao family, the Shen family will not be lazy."

"You mean to say that it is the Zhao family that is spurring the Shen family forward?"

"Yes, of course, that's not the most important thing. As the saying goes, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it! With the Zhao family here, the Shen family can do business with peace of mind in Nie Jiaqiao, and the Zhao family and the Shen family are really in a cold relationship. ”

"Dead lips and cold teeth...... The lips and teeth are cold,......" Zhu muttered in a low voice, "What do you mean?" ”

"I think that Madame can rescue the Zhao family now, of course, the timing of the rescue needs to be grasped, not only to play a role in warning the Zhao family, but also not to let the Zhao family collapse, and after the Shen family comes to the rescue, they can use this to ease relations with the Zhao family, and they can also establish a spiritual leadership position in Nie Jiaqiao. Madame thinks about it, if after this disaster, the prestige of the Shen family will rise in a straight line, and the people of Nie Jiaqiao will definitely take the Shen family as the leader, if there is anything in the future, as long as the Shen family raises its arms and shouts, it will definitely gather. ”

"Why are you suddenly so merciful?" Zhu asked suddenly.

"......" Zhou Sen was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer this question.

In fact, Zhou Sen didn't think about it so much, he just wanted to spend this cruel winter quietly, and the demise of the Zhao family, the first family of Nie Jiaqiao, was obviously not conducive to the stability of Nie Jiaqiao.

Theoretically, to protect the Zhao family is to protect yourself.
