Lin Jinyue's family transmigrated. Their journey began in 'hell mode,' with a three-year drought coupled with war. On the escape route, her mother and brother fell unconscious, and Lin ...
Prince Jing attacked hastily this time, and part of Xie Hong's food supplies were burned.
In the future he would not be so short of food, because he would be escorted by a team of a thousand people at any time. Even if they had crossbows, it would not be easy to rob them.
After listening to his daughter's analysis, Lin Shucheng slammed the table and said, "Okay, let's do this."
Tian Quan was tied up, and several villagers came over to keep an eye on him.
Lin Jinyue and her family discussed countermeasures with the village chief.
Based on Tian Quan's words, Lin Jinyue drew a rough map of several nearby villages and towns.
Tian Quan was a scout. As Xie Hong needed food and fodder urgently, the nearby cities had no time to prepare, and if too many soldiers and horses were required to transport the food and fodder, the consumption on the road would increase. Therefore, the magistrate of Nanzhi County only sent about ten people to transport the food and fodder.
They heard that some of Prince Jing's troops had sneaked into Lingnan, so they asked Tian Quanqi to help with the investigation at the front. If there was any danger, they would send a message back immediately.
The people from Yunhe Village acted too quickly and shot Tian Quan in the arm, preventing him from setting off the smoke bomb.
Lin Jinyue suggested: "The enemy should have horses, about ten people per person, with soldiers. Even if everyone uses crossbows together, they may not be able to hit the target. This place is too far from Nanzhi County. They should first choose Nan'an County for reinforcements. So, we set a trap on the road they must take to Nan'an County, and send a few more people to block them."
As she spoke, she marked two places on the map.
Set traps in one place and catch the fish that slip through the net in another.
Thinking of returning to the farm, Lin Jinyue said, "Try to hurt people instead of horses. We still have to let the horses pull the carts."
After a few people made a simple plan, Lin Xueqing took a group of people there.
Lin Jinyue didn't want to work in vain.
She said to the villagers, "We want all the horses. We will sell them for silver. We will keep two horses and exchange the rest for silver to help the village."
Many people know that Lin Jinyue’s farm has signed a ton guarantee agreement with the system.
Knowing that horses grow and reproduce twice as fast on the farm as outside, he naturally agreed, even without asking for money.
Anyway, Arya won’t treat them unfairly!
The villagers hurriedly said: "That's natural."
"Let alone other things, without the blueprints drawn by Erya, how dare we fight these soldiers?"
Lin Jinyue quickly reached a consensus with the villagers.
The villagers worked hard to dig a hole on the road ten miles away from the village. They didn't need to dig very deep, as it was a narrow path, and soon they had dug a big hole two meters long and one meter wide.
The women cut down nearby bamboos, sharpened them and buried them.
When they rode their horses to look for help, they were bound to jump into the trap in a panic.
This was not the end yet. Several families gathered some hemp ropes and twisted them together. Two strong men ambushed in the bushes on both sides. If they could break through this trap, they would definitely not expect that there was another one waiting behind it.
After arranging everything, Lin Shucheng, Lin Xueqing, Lin Fugui and several other strong men in the village rushed to the place where Tian Quan said.
They were short of manpower and were indeed cautious. More than a dozen of them were sitting on the roadside, seemingly enjoying the cool air, but in fact they were keeping an eye on the situation nearby and waiting for Tian Quan to come back and report.
In the woods not far away, they saw several people wearing red leather armor guarding a haystack.
If you don't look carefully, you really can't see it.
They were divided into two groups, which made things convenient for Lin Xueqing and the others.
At his command, several men with crossbows shot arrows at them, but none of them hit the vital parts, but instead hit the legs.
Lin Xueqing had good aim and shot several people in the legs at once.
They cried out in pain.
Lin Shucheng was not to be outdone and soon shot two people as well.
The rest of Lin Fugui and his men were in a panic, and although they didn't have much accuracy, they were still restrained.
The noise here quickly alarmed the people in the woods.
Three of them jumped on their horses and ran towards Nan'an County. A dozen of them protected the food and prepared to return. The remaining twenty or so people drew their swords and prepared to rush over to find trouble with Lin Shucheng.
Lin Shucheng had already thought that they would transport the food and grass, so the young and strong men from six villages rushed towards them carrying hoes and shovels.
For a while, the two sides confronted each other and no one dared to take the first move.
Lin Shucheng continued to shoot arrows at them. Even though the other side had more than a dozen people, they had no power to fight back against the crossbows.
These men were quickly knocked down by crossbow arrows.
Lin Fugui and his men quickly tied the man up and picked up the arrows on the ground.
These were all carved by Lin Xueqing one by one. They can be used later and cannot be wasted.
Lin Shucheng said to the remaining dozen people who were guarding the food and grass: "We won't make things difficult for you. You are just trying to get a bite to eat. Raise your hands and surrender. We won't hurt your lives. But if we start a fight, the swords and knives have no mercy..."
Lin Xueqing and his group pointed their crossbows at the dozens of people. The dozens of people did not dare to act recklessly. They threw their knives on the ground and raised their hands, not daring to act recklessly.
After tying them up, Lin Fugui and his men counted the food and fodder, and found that there was more than they had imagined. Ten people were needed to transport ten carts of food.
Because there was too much food and grass, a few fish accidentally escaped.
It was dark at the moment, and there were trees everywhere, so it was hard to see clearly.
But at this time, Lin Jinyue was too lazy to care about those people who ran away. Xie Hong was now fighting with Prince Jing and had no time to take care of other things.
But what she didn't expect was.
Just as her father and brother led a team to kidnap the 140 people, dozens of people from the village who came to watch the fun pulled the carts and ran forward desperately, fearing that there would be pursuers behind them.
These old people are afraid of officials. Even if they are right, they still feel weak. What's more, they just robbed the official.
When they make plans, they just rush forward with a ruthless spirit.
After the robbery, they always felt uneasy. They had robbed their food supplies. Would they be wanted? Would Xie Hong bring troops to kill them in the future?
The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became, and he ran several miles with the carriage and food in one breath.
When I saw the familiar towering city walls, the guards standing firm on the city walls, the cement roads and the prosperous villages...
The group immediately felt relieved.
As a result, they are not afraid of these officers. The guards can knock them down!
To be honest, these dozens of people usually work in the workshop day and night, and for a moment they really didn't realize that their village has become so powerful now.
Lin Jinyue was thinking about the horses that were injured and could not be taken back, and was thinking about how to bring them back.
She thought for a moment, and then said to those who had not signed a ton protection agreement with the farm: "Take these people back to recover from their injuries, and when they are well, work for the village."
After these people left, Lin Jinyue waved her hand and directly put the horse into the space.
Jiang Yun also came over and hurried into the farm to bandage the horse's wound.
When Lin Jinyue returned, she saw that many of the people who were transporting food and fodder were injured.
