“Hahahahahahahahahaha.”
"What are you laughing at? Isn't it coming?"
The boy pointed in the direction outside the village.
The captain was shocked and looked carefully. Sure enough, the flag of Qinghe was faintly visible in the distance. Looking more carefully, he saw only a few dozen people, waving the flag of Qinghe, walking towards them openly.
Why are you here in broad daylight?
Why are there only so few people?
The captain broke out in a cold sweat. What would happen if Songpa's family found out?
The boy didn't think too much about it, and kept asking: "Boss, are they here to divide the land among us?"
The captain flew into a rage and shouted, "If they can't get in, what's the point of sharing the land? The time has come. If you don't help, you won't even be able to get a share of the land when the Qinghe army arrives!"
The captain looked around at everyone and said word by word, "Those who want land or lives, follow me to the village gate. Anyone who refuses to go can speak up now!"
After saying that, the captain tightly gripped his hunting knife. He knew that these people were all from poor families, but one could not judge a person by his appearance. No one knew whether anyone wanted to go to Songpa's house to inform on him. However, he was sure that he could keep the informers here.
Seeing the captain's behavior, everyone was very sensible and responded one after another: "Let's go to the village gate. Anyone who doesn't go will be killed now."
The captain ran very fast.
Songpa's manor has four gates. The Qinghe people came from the north, but there were two teams patrolling on each side of the city wall, so he had no way to cover up the whereabouts of the Qinghe people.
The only chance now is to get closer to the north gate. As long as he can get to the gate quickly, whether by cheating or killing, as long as he can get the farmhand guarding the gate to open it, everything will still be in time.
Of course, it is not just the farmhands who guard the city gates, but also the private soldiers of the Songpa family. Those people are the confidence and support of the Songpa family.
However, the private soldiers could not bear the hardship and refused to go out for patrol. They all stayed at the city gate to rest. Only those who were so poor as them could do the patrolling.
“I can handle two, not three, at most three private soldiers, that would be great, but a team of private soldiers has 20 people, I don’t know how many my remaining nine brothers can handle.
There are still twenty farmhands guarding the city gate. If they help the private soldiers, we will definitely lose the battle. Could it be that they are trying to deceive them?
But what kind of reason can be used to trick the city gate into opening?
Going out to visit relatives? Going to celebrate a birthday? I'm afraid no one would believe it. Without the warrant from the Songpa family, the city gate cannot be opened.
If we rush over and take the initiative, it might be helpful. If we can immediately subdue the private army captain, we might be able to force them to open the door."
While running, the captain used his brain the most in his life, and the plan he came up with even left him dumbfounded. He never thought he had such a talent.
But no matter what, I have to go.
He seemed to see the figure of Song Wusao among the people from Qinghe, and she was even wearing an apron.
Didn’t I explain to her clearly where this place is?
If she fell into the hands of Songpa's family, how could she escape unharmed?
"Even if it's just for that bowl of rice, I'll do it!"
The captain thought about it while rushing down the city wall, drawing his hunting knife, ready to subdue the private army captain as soon as possible, but he saw a scene that subverted him.
To be honest, it was only because he had gained more experience in the past few days that his ability to withstand shocks became stronger, otherwise the scene before him would have frightened him to death.
The patrolling team of farmhands who were supposed to be behind him were now besieging the team of private soldiers together with the farmhands guarding the gate.
There were already some dead people at the scene, including farmhands and private soldiers, who were just thrown on the ground, staring at the sky.
The private soldiers were compressed into the city gate and held the gate tightly under the command of the captain.
However, although they had saved the gate, they were pushed away from the warning gong. If nothing unexpected happened, the news would not have been able to get out. However, the farmhands were not very good at fighting. Although they were numerous and launched the attack suddenly, they had the upper hand, but they could not break through the formation formed by the private soldiers.
"Why are you still standing there? Come and help! Open the door and let the soldiers in!"
The captain of the farm guarding the gate smiled when he saw him coming and greeted him quickly.
"oh oh."
The captain seemed a little bewildered. The world was changing so strangely. He had just finally managed to think of a brilliant plan, but...
Hey...
Never mind, just open the door and everything will be fine.
The captain raised his hunting knife high and shouted, "Follow me."
Rushed out like an arrow.
