Seeing that these people did not take her words seriously at all, they all focused their attention on the magic weapon.

Xie Ying's eyes suddenly became stern.

This immediately made everyone calm down.

I sat up straighter.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Xie Ying slowly continued, "From now on, everyone must strengthen defense and spread out the spies in your hands."

"Closely monitor every move outside the mountain."

"If my guess is correct, the dozen or so people who came earlier came into the mountains specifically to investigate the situation in my village!"

"Now, there is no harvest, and we already know that our village must be prepared."

"Therefore, I discussed with my teacher that the government troops must take action today."

"I repeat, you must not be careless in the slightest. If anyone goes wrong, don't blame me for being rude!"

Hearing this, everyone's expression changed and they nodded in agreement.

The reason why Xie Ying was able to sit firmly on the throne of the village chief was not only because he was the adopted daughter of the old village chief, but also because of the help of a nearby teacher.

In addition, her personal abilities are absolutely top-notch.

Only in this way can she, as a first-class woman, suppress these desperate criminals.

After a pause, she continued, "From now on, alcohol is prohibited in the village. Wait for my order when the ban will be lifted!"

"Everyone disperse and prepare yourselves!"

Upon hearing this, everyone stood up, saluted, and then left.

After everyone left, Xie Ying turned to look at the old man next to him: "Master, what are you thinking about?"

The old man in white stroked his beard gently and said, "Ying'er, this government army has an unknown origin and extraordinary combat power. It is completely different from the past. You should be prepared..."

Xie Ying's expression changed, and he said, "Master means..."

The old man in white said, "As the saying goes, only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. Ying'er, you can send someone to Shang'an City to gather information first."

"See what news there is."

"Also, we need to spread spies far and wide. If there is any disturbance outside the mountain, we need to get the news in time and respond accordingly."

"Finally, think of a way out. If things become impossible, abandon the village immediately!"

Hearing this, Xie Ying's face suddenly darkened.

"Master, do you mean that there is a possibility that we will not be able to take control of our village?"

"Isn't this possibility very likely?"

"After years of management by Master, our village is impregnable. Even if more government troops come, there is absolutely no possibility of breaking through!"

The old man in white shook his head and said, "Eagle, your master has told you that you should never think that everything will be foolproof."

"Once we have this kind of thinking, we will be doomed!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Ying quickly stood up and saluted, saying, "Master, it was my fault!"

The old man in white waved his hand: "In short, the most important thing now is to find out where this government army came from."

“Only by knowing the details can we formulate a strategy to deal with it.”

Xie Ying nodded: "Yes, I will send someone to Shang'an City to get the news right away."

While the master and disciple were discussing how to deal with the situation, Zhao Hao had already gathered a team of a thousand people outside the mountain.

Zhao Hao and his men hurried over with more than twenty bandits and joined everyone together.

Then, everyone immediately set off into the mountains and headed towards the Black Cloud Village.

Because the enemy had already been alerted, Zhao Hao had no more worries and ordered everyone to light torches and move forward as quickly as possible.

As soon as they entered the mountains, the spies from Heiyun Village got the news and passed it back to the village.

When they heard that the government army only had a thousand men, the leaders, who had been worried, suddenly relaxed.

The same is true for Xie Ying.

There are only a thousand people. Even if these government troops are very powerful, they are not much of a pressure for the current village.

Just guard against it strictly.

When it was dawn, a thousand government troops arrived at the foot of the mountain where the Heiyun Village was located.

Standing far away at the foot of the mountain, Zhao Hao looked up at the mountain and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The mountain is extremely steep and there is only one path to go up.

Moreover, this path is so narrow that even three people cannot walk side by side.

Only two people can walk.

Moreover, there is a barrier every hundred meters or so.

The mountain is about six or seven hundred meters high.

There are five obstacles at one entrance.

Moreover, an iron gate was set up at each pass.

Only by opening the iron gate can you continue to move forward.

If the iron gate doesn't open, you can't get in unless you can fly up.

All the way to the top of the mountain, it is built like a fortress, commanding the audience and impossible to attack by force.

As long as the defenders were inside the fortress, they could easily attack the enemy with rolling stones and logs, bows and arrows, or spears.

On the other hand, even if the attacking party reached the top, they would face such a fortress.

There is no good way.

Because the area outside the fortress was built extremely steeply with a huge slope, it was impossible to even stand steadily, let alone attack the enemies inside the fortress.

It is no exaggeration to say that this design is a masterpiece of nature.

No wonder Wu Song said that even with the use of thunder bombs, it might not be possible to capture the village.

After reading the whole thing, Zhao Hao couldn't help but take a deep breath.

He thought to himself that there must be capable people in the Black Cloud Village.

Ordinary bandits would never have such ability.

However, this also strengthened their determination to take over Heiyun Village.
