"I've asked them to do it!" Zhang Shu's face showed anxiety and said, "But with our eighty or so light and strong, we can't stop more than two hundred rogues. And if we can't solve these rogues in a short period of time, over time, more outcasts will join the gangsters, and we won't be able to stop them at that time. ”
"Did you send someone to the county for help?"
"Sent!" Zhang Shu shook his head and said, "But it shouldn't be useful." ”
"How could it be useless?" Luo Xin was surprised. Xindao with his relationship with Zhou Zhixian is useless? Besides, Zhang Shu also knows the relationship between himself and Zhou Zhixian!
"The magistrate is not in charge of the troops, and he can't transfer the troops, so he relies on the servants under him? So he had to go to the general Bai soldiers stationed outside the county seat, where there were a thousand soldiers. But at this time, Mr. Bai probably would not send troops, he was afraid that once a large group of rogues attacked the county seat. Therefore, he must be ready to enter the city and guard the city at any time. As for the surrounding villages, they can only fend for themselves. ”
Luo Xin lowered his head and thought about it, and knew in his heart that no matter how persuaded by the Zhou Governor's Mansion, General Bai would not send troops. His duty is to guard the county. As long as he defends the county seat, it is a great achievement, and what does it matter how many people die in the surrounding villages?
"So we're the only ones to figure it out?" Luo Xin said in a condensed voice.
"Not bad!" Zhang Shu nodded and said, "What can Xin'er do?" ”
"Uncle Zhang, teacher, uncle, what can you come up with?"
The three showmen spread out their hands together, and then they all shook their heads. Finally, Zhang Shu sighed and said:
"What else can be done? You can only hold on. ”
Luo Xin frowned slightly and said, "However, didn't you say that if you hold on for too long, it will cause other homeless people to join the Liukou?" Once they grow to five hundred, or even a thousand, we simply can't resist them. ”
"What's the solution?" Luo Zhi said with a disgraced face.
"When do you think the rogue will arrive?"
"It should be noon." Lin Chang's face was also very ugly.
Luo Xin frowned and thought. But I couldn't think of a way. The four of them frowned in the study, someone made a suggestion, and everyone discussed it together, but in the end it didn't work, until noon, when they saw a member of Zhang Shu's family rushing in.
"Sir. Oh no, the rogues are coming! ”
"Panic what!" Zhang Shu sighed with a calm face, and the housekeeper stood there with a pale face. Zhang Shu stood up and said:
"Let's go, let's take a look!"
The four men stood up and walked out the door. Soon I drove to the back of the wooden village at the head of the village, and I saw smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and more than 200 ragged men were rushing towards the village. They have everything in their hands. There are those with real weapons, knives and guns, etc., but most of the men still hold hoes, shovels, sticks, rakes, and even kitchen knives.
In Luo Xin's opinion, these people are not even a ragtag army, they can only be regarded as a group of outcasts gathered together. But their eyes burst with brutality. As long as they can grab a ration of food, they will not hesitate to kill. Once let them go on like this. Soon it will snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, and at that time it will not be a rogue, but a large army, causing unpredictable harm, and countless innocent people will die at their hands.
"Ready!" Zhang Shu let out a loud shout.
The hunters in the village began to draw their bows and arrows. And the rest of the men, regardless of whether they were light or strong, also stood in front of the fence, and in front of them lay the stones that had been prepared long ago, and at this time each man had a stone in his hand. Always ready to throw it out.
Luo Xin took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. This is not the time when he and his eldest brother met Wang Sigou and three people ambushed him, at that time there were only three people who ambushed him and his eldest brother. But at this time, there were more than 200 people rushing over from the opposite side, and the oncoming ferocity made Luo Xin suffocate.
Luo Xin glanced left and right, and saw Zhang Shu, Lin Chang and Luo Zhi's legs were trembling slightly. Not to mention those villagers, at this time, the eyes of those villagers all looked at Zhang Shu, Lin Chang and Luo Zhi from time to time. Seeing the pale faces of the three Xiucai, the faces of the villagers began to show panic.
At this time, Luo Qing squeezed over and said in a low voice: "Little brother, you can't go on like this anymore." If we continue like this, the momentum will be gone, and I'm afraid that those rogues will collapse once they attack us. ”
Luo Xin turned his head to look at his eldest brother, and saw that Luo Qing's face was full of excitement, and there was no trace of panic. I can't help but be sure, the eldest brother is really the material for the general! Unlike himself, he usually talks about the head of the war book, but once he faces the war, he is not as calm as the eldest brother at all.
"Big brother is right! In your opinion? Luo Xin also asked in a low voice.
"Let's go out and rush! It only takes one defeat of them and the morale on our side will come up. Luo Qing's face was red with excitement.
"The psychology of martial idiots is different from ordinary people!"
Luo Xin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the eldest brother of the more than 200 extremely vicious men on the opposite side actually wanted to go out and kill. Seeing that Luo Xin didn't speak, Luo Qing became a little anxious. He lowered his voice and said:
"Little brother, don't hesitate. As you have said, the momentum of a war is particularly important. If the momentum is strong, you will be able to overcome the strong with weakness, and if the momentum is weak, you will be defeated. If we don't raise our momentum, we won't be able to block a wave of attacks. ”
At this time, Luo Xin had calmed down, knowing that the eldest brother was reasonable, just look at the surrounding villagers, except for the dozen or so hunters and those who have martial arts, and then grandfather, father, uncle and cousin, the rest of the villagers began to tremble with their thighs.
"Uncle Zhang!" Luo Xin said in a low voice.
"Xin'er!"
Zhang Shu Huoran turned his head, and Lin Chang and Luo Zhi also looked over. Several villagers around also looked at him, their eyes full of hope.
"Gather the horses in the village, and then gather the eighty sturdy, and we will go out and rush in a while!"
"Xin'er, are you crazy?" Zhang Shu said with his mouth wide open.
"No, it's too dangerous!" Luo Zhi also hurriedly said.
"Listen to the old and young masters of Shanglin Village!" At this time, the more than 200 rogues on the opposite side stopped about one hundred and fifty meters away from the wooden village, and a man riding a big horse and holding a big knife in his hand shouted:
"We didn't come to Shanglin Village for any other purpose, just to borrow grain. It's not a good year, everyone is hungry, the old and young are pitiful, as long as we send your food out, we will leave immediately. ”
