Of course, Zhang Xiaochi knew this truth, but he couldn't watch the villagers of Wagang Village suffer.

"Xiaochi, the Jin army has just been repelled by us, and their main job now is to set up camp, so they shouldn't have much time to go to Wagang Village!"

Having said that, Zhang Xiaochi still wants to go back to rescue the villagers.

This is to put aside when he first crossed over, he could ignore the villagers of Wagang Village, after all, he had no feelings, but now everyone has helped him, although it is the icing on the cake, but it is also a friendship.

Zhang Xiaochi may not do well in other aspects, but he is a person who will repay his kindness, and he doesn't like to owe favors to others.

"Wait a minute, I'll be mixed up with the brothers who went out to clean up the battlefield, so that I can blind the surveillance of the spies of the Jin Kingdom."

Zhang Xiaochi said seriously.

Seeing his resolute attitude, it was difficult for everyone to continue to persuade.

"Xiaochi, I'll go with you."

Zhao Qiankun said seriously.

"Brother Zhao, I can go alone, there are too many people, but it is easy to attract the attention of the Jin army."

Zhang Xiaochi decisively refused.

"But you're ...... alone"

"Don't worry, I grew up in Wagang Village, and the villagers are also familiar with the surrounding environment, so we will retreat safely."

Zhang Xiaochi replied confidently.

Zhao Qiankun sighed, and then said seriously.

"In that case, you need to be more prepared."

Zhang Xiaochi didn't take too many things, except for the bow and crossbow and an arrow he carried with him, he only brought a dagger and a brand-new war knife.

"Major General, the Jin army is encamped five miles away."

At this moment, a soldier knelt in front of Zhao Qiankun and told the news he had found.

"Okay, let's go ahead and find out."

Zhao Qiankun nodded, and when the spies left, his eyes fell on Zhang Xiaochi and said in a deep voice.

"Xiaochi, when you encounter danger, you must protect yourself."

"Don't worry."

Subsequently, under Zhao Qiankun's order, all the soldiers who went out to clean up the battlefield changed into civilian clothes, and Zhang Xiaochi, who was wearing civilian clothes, walked out of the city gate in the crowd.

With the cooperation of everyone, Zhang Xiaochi successfully broke away from the masses and walked on the road back to Wagang Village.

For the sake of safety, he did not take the main road, and advanced along the dense forest next to the road back to the village, he did not dare to delay time along the way, and successfully returned to Wagang Village as quickly as possible.

Looking at the familiar environment at the entrance of the village and the crops growing well on both sides of the road, Zhang Xiaochi sighed in his heart, the villagers lived leisurely, and they were broken by the people of Jinguo.

"Xiaochi, you're back!?"

Just when Zhang Xiaochi sighed, the familiar voice of the villagers came from the side, and when he turned his head, he saw that the person who spoke was the village chief's daughter-in-law.

"Auntie, don't ask why, hurry home and pack up the softness and gold and silver, we have to leave Wagang Village quickly!"

"Why!?"

Although Zhang Xiaochi explained it in advance, the village chief's daughter-in-law still subconsciously asked the reason.

"Our army has retreated to Qingwa Town, and now the Jin army is coming to the city."

Zhang Xiaochi replied.

"Auntie, let's notify you separately, don't remember, don't bring anything that affects the itinerary, don't be reluctant!"

Zhang Xiaochi reminded solemnly.

"Oh, good, good!"

Subsequently, Zhang Xiaochi notified the villagers as quickly as possible, helped some people pack up their things, and took everyone to the village entrance to gather.

However, when he arrived at the entrance of the village, he was helpless for a while, and many villagers brought a lot of things, such as farm tools for working in the fields, and some even carried a box.

"I repeat, don't bring any of these things, just silver and a change of clothes."

"Xiaochi, don't worry, we promise we won't drag you down."

Glancing at the villagers, Zhang Xiaochi was helpless for a while, everyone was used to living a poor life, and it was indeed very reluctant to let them give up these belongings suddenly.

"Please, you have to prioritize your life, is it important to live or these things?"

It's just that no matter how Zhang Xiaochi persuades, there are still some villagers who are unwilling to give up, especially the elderly.

Zhang Xiaochi was forced to be helpless, so he had to say seriously.

"Put down all the things that get in the way, and my family will give you ten taels of silver."

As soon as these words came out, there was a very good effect immediately, and even the most stubborn old man had no opinion.

"Let's go."

Zhang Xiaochi waved his big hand and turned around to leave with everyone, but less than a minute after walking out of the village, his face suddenly became solemn.

"Don't talk, everyone come with me."

Everyone didn't know why, but they still followed Zhang Xiaochi into the cornfield on the side of the road.

"Xiaochi, what's wrong?"

"Someone's coming this way."

Zhang Xiaochi replied in a low voice, while leading everyone to move forward in the field, and at the same time told everyone again not to make a sound.

After about a minute or so, the villagers finally heard the sound of horses' hooves, and some brave people, under the cover of corn stalks, secretly got up and took a look, and sure enough, they found a group of soldiers dressed in Jin Guo costumes heading towards Wagang Village.

"Speed up!"

Zhang Xiaochi's face was solemn, and when those soldiers entered Wagang Village and saw the abandoned things on the ground, they would definitely send people to search around.

Among the fleeing crowds in Wagang Village, there are not only elderly people, but also babies waiting to be fed, and their presence has completely affected the speed of retreat.

Moreover, babies will cry all the time when they are hungry or frightened, and in this case, babies are an invisible bomb for them.

The Jin soldiers who entered the village soon appeared at the entrance of the village, and at this time, many of them had some loot in their hands.

"The stoves in the village are all hot, and they must have not been gone long to find them for me."

"Yes!"

Zhang Xiaochi's hearing is beyond ordinary people, although he is separated by a distance, he still hears very clearly.

According to normal logic, they must have known that the villagers were going to Qingwa Town for refuge, and knowing this, they only needed to send people to block the road to Qingwa Town, and then send people to patrol the mountains, which could almost block the ordinary fleeing people.

"Xiaochi, what are they talking about?"

A villager asked in a low voice.

"They sent people to look for us again, and they also sent people to block the road to Qingwa Town."

As soon as they heard this, the villagers were not calm and hurriedly said.

"Xiaochi, the road is blocked, so what should we do?"

"Let's take the mountain road to Qingwa Town."

Zhang Xiaochi didn't think about it, he blurted out directly, he glanced at the sleeping babies, and then said in a deep voice.

"Hurry up, everybody, remember, don't make a sound."

Fortunately, Wagang Village is surrounded by mountains, and soon, the villagers entered the mountains under the leadership of Zhang Xiaochi, but although the mountains are relatively safe, the roads are rugged and difficult to navigate, especially for the elderly and women holding children.
