Chapter 132 133 Encountered a Strong Enemy
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, Li Yu said to Ruyi and others: "Jixiang, you and I will guard the gate of the village. Ruyi, take Uncle Liu and a group of people to guard the low place on the left. Zhaocai will take Uncle He." There is a team of people guarding the one at the foot of the mountain, the others are here, everyone should be careful."
"We understand." Ruyi and Zhaocai bowed before bowing and walking away with their bows and arrows on their backs.
Snowflakes were falling, covering up the dirt on the ground bit by bit. Everyone sat in the wooden shed behind the rammed earth wall, waiting quietly.
Brother Yang led thirty or forty men, some holding machetes, some holding spears. Yang Chun held an oil can in his hand. A group of people braved the wind and snow and walked towards Fengming Village.
Li Yu heard footsteps coming from the mountain pass and looked at Zhao Cai and Chen Yaohui. "Let's go out. Don't panic later. Wait for my order to take action."
Everyone agreed in a low voice and came out of the shed separately, hiding behind the earthen wall.
Brother Yang led the team in. He waved his hand to stop his progress more than ten steps away from the trap. Looking at the flickering fire behind the log door, he saw two people vaguely walking back and forth inside.
Brother Yang glanced at the oil can in Yang Chun's hand and looked at the person standing behind him, "Yang Yong, take a few people up to explore the road."
Yang Yong smiled broadly, "Brother Yang, you are too careful. They don't know we are coming. Look at me."
After Yang Yong finished speaking, he led a few people in a arrogant manner and strode toward the earth wall. Not far away, Brother Yang and the others heard a "boom" and watched helplessly as several people fell in. He fell into a big pit, and heart-piercing screams came from the pit.
When the people in the village heard the screams, they wanted to stand up and go take a look. When they saw Li Yu hiding there calmly, they shrank back when they thought of Li Yu's words.
There was a lucky guy standing on the edge of the trap outside, trembling all over as he looked at the people inside the trap. Brother Yang took the oil can in Yang Chun's hand and shouted angrily at Yang Chun and the others: "Go, take a look. Is anyone still alive?"
Yang Chun and others shivered and ran to the big pit, blowing on the fire. Under the dim light of the fire, they saw that the bodies of the people below were covered with sharpened sticks. All the people inside had no way to survive.
Li Yu looked at the faint light from the fire folding box and saw the vague crowd standing outside, and secretly estimated in his heart: there are at least twenty or thirty bandits, and the leader among these people must not be an ordinary refugee.
Yang Chun and others retreated to Brother Yang and looked at him with a sad face, "Brother Yang, there is only one left and all the others are gone. The pit is at least a foot deep and filled with sharpened sticks. We still have to fight." ?"
Brother Yang looked at Yang Chun fiercely, "Take someone to the forest to cut some wood and vines and bring them over."
Brother Yang raised the jar in his hand and threw it at the wooden door with all his strength. With a bang, the oil jar hit the wooden door and the pottery pieces scattered in all directions. Li Yu sniffed the smell and said, "It's the smell of lamp oil. It seems they originally planned to Fire on the wooden door.”
When Brother Yang saw that the oil tank had cracked, he raised the torch in his hand to light it and then pointed towards the wooden door. Li Yu shouted to Jixiang: "Jixiang, shoot it down."
Ji Xiang quickly drew his bow and nocked an arrow. The arrow flew away from the string and towards the torch. The torch was shot down by the arrow and fell into the pit.
Yang Lao Turtle screamed, "Brother Yang, they have arrows."
Brother Yang looked inside the wooden door, "The people living at the foot of the mountain may have hunters. Traps and arrows are their essential weapons."
Yang Laobao looked at Brother Yang and asked cautiously: "Then shall we still fight?"
Brother Yang looked at the wooden door on the ground, "If you fight, they won't have many arrows. Wait until Yang Chun and the others bring wood to tie a wooden bridge and cross over. You can find another branch for me and I will sweep it away." Arrows.”
"I'll go right away." Yang Laobiao ran to look for branches.
Yang Chun came with his men dragging more than a dozen pieces of wood and vines. Brother Yang began to cut the wooden sticks and pointed at the trap and said to them: "Tie the wooden sticks with vines and put them on top of the trap."
A group of people moved quickly to cut down the branches, connect the wood with vines to make a wooden bridge, and then lifted it to the trap and set up the wooden bridge.
Brother Yang found a branch he had handy and lifted it up and walked towards the trap. Li Yu looked at Brother Yang and said to Jixiang and the others: "Jixiang, Uncle Yaohui, he is carrying the branch to deal with our arrows. You guys are here." Go to the wall and shoot from top to bottom.”
"Okay." Chen Yaohui and Ji Xiang climbed up the earth wall and watched the refugees pass the trap and walk towards the wooden door. Ji Xiang counted them and gestured towards Li Yu and said to Chen Yaohui, "Shoot."
The arrows "swish, swish, swish" shot from top to bottom at the bandits behind Brother Yang, making screams of the arrows. Brother Yang rushed behind the earthen wall waving his branches, holding up a The spear stabbed Jixiang, and Jixiang took out a machete and struck at Brother Yang. Li Yu raised the crossbow arrow, and the arrow shot through the air "suddenly, suddenly". The people crossing the bridge behind also fell into the trap.
Seeing that the situation was bad, Brother Yang raised a branch to block the arrow and shouted: "Everyone, get back quickly."
Li Yu had already understood that the person holding the branch was the only one with some skills, and the others were just a mob. Li Yu stepped on the beam of the wooden door and jumped onto the earth wall, holding a crossbow and pointing at those people from top to bottom. The refugees shot away.
After the sound of the arrows, a dozen people fell down in the blink of an eye. Brother Yang swung the branches round and knocked down some arrows, and ran away quickly with the remaining people.
Chen Yaohui looked at Li Yu and Chen Yaozu, "What should we do with the dead people outside?"
Chen Yaozu said fearfully: "What should we do? Either they die or they die. If they can escape, let them escape. Those who deserve to die must die. If someone is to collect the dead tomorrow, let them collect them. If not, just stay away. Dig a hole and bury it."
Chen Yaohui sighed, "I hope they can retreat despite the difficulties. Xiaoyu, if the snow is so heavy, please take some people back to rest. We will stay here to guard."
Li Yu looked at the sky and found that the snow was getting heavier and heavier. "It's hard to say whether they will surrender in spite of the difficulties. Judging from this situation, they won't come again tonight. Jixiang took people to retrieve the arrows outside. Uncle Yaozu You guys go back with me and I’ll replace you tomorrow morning.”
Brother Yang took the remaining people back to the woods, and the people who stayed there gathered around him with happy faces, "Brother Yang succeeded, right! Shall we move now?"
One person looked around strangely, "Hey! Why are there only so many people back? Where are Yang Yong and the others?"
Yang Chun glanced at Brother Yang and lowered his head, "They are all dead."
"What?" Yang Yong's mother grabbed Yang Chun, "Tell me more clearly, what do you mean they are all dead?"
"Just killed by everyone there."
"You are talking nonsense, my son will not die, oh... God,..." Yang Yong's mother cried loudly.
"Stop fucking arguing, are you trying to lure people here and take the blame for us?" Brother Yang suddenly roared, "Do you think robbing houses and robbing houses is just playing house and no one will die? Then the people we killed are not dead. ? We are living a life of knife-edge licking blood now, and we may die at any time. Do you still want me to tell you such a simple truth? If you are afraid of death, pack your things and leave early tomorrow morning. If you are not afraid, just follow me into the cave. Discuss how to deal with those people at the foot of the mountain."
Brother Yang took the lead and walked into the cave. Yang Chun took one look at the other people and followed him into the cave. The other people also walked in slowly.
