"Ah!" In the middle of the night, the light sleeper was awakened.
Looking out through the window paper, I could vaguely see the glow of fire and blood splattered on the ground.
Erzhu, who was on guard, immediately became alert and banged the gong to wake up the Ling family.
Ling Jiheng got out of bed, wrapped himself in a cloak and was about to go out.
Chi Xingyue grabbed him and stuffed him with a bulletproof vest and two pistols for self-defense.
The screams in the village became more and more frequent. Ling Jiheng arranged for Ling Shi to go out and check, but the news he got was that the Northern Liao people had launched a surprise attack.
What the hell is this a surprise attack? Even if Qingshan Village is close to the border, there are still mountains blocking the way. Add to that the strong wind and heavy snow. They must be crazy to choose this time to enter the village.
But on second thought, it seemed quite possible. After all, the normal way of thinking for ordinary people is to stay at home and hibernate during the winter, but those animals in Bei Liao might like to do the opposite!
He immediately arranged for Hongyu to take her family to hide in the cellar in the backyard and not to open the door until he came back.
Hongyu took the order and went to the backyard with the old lady, the old man, the first wife, the second wife, the third wife, the Shu family, and Doctor Cheng.
Shu Muyun looked at his son worriedly, not wanting him to charge into battle.
But if the village is in trouble, you can't escape danger by staying out of it.
Chi Xingyue hesitated for a moment, then decided to go out with him to kill the enemy. Although she was not good at other things, she could still be a mobile weapons depot. Everyone needed her support.
Ling Jiheng hesitated for a moment and agreed.
However, he changed Chi Xingyue's cloak into black, and told her to hide immediately if there was any danger, and never confront the other party head-on.
Chi Xingyue nodded, took out a few packets of drugs and handed them to Ling Jiheng. They looked at each other, understanding each other.
Without any worries, Ling Jiheng went out with Chi Xingyue, Erzhu and others. Each of them was holding a machete and looked ferocious.
However, there were nearly thirty Northern Liao soldiers outside the house. They had planned to slaughter the entire village quietly, but Erzhu, that idiot, woke everyone up.
Seeing that their sneak attack was not working, they rushed towards the Ling family mansion while killing, thinking that such a big mansion should have a lot of supplies inside, and they might be able to make a small fortune.
The man who came in held a torch and smiled lewdly at the people coming out of the house.
"Oh, you're quite handsome. Just surrender and play with me. I'll even spare your life!"
In fact, he had no intention of leaving anyone alive. Saying this was just humiliating the other party.
A hint of murderous intent flashed across Ling Jiheng's eyes. He waved his hand, and the few people in the Ling family stepped forward with stern faces, showing no intention of retreating.
The weapons clashed, making a metallic grinding sound. Facing a powerful enemy, even Ling Jiu and Ling Shi, despite their advanced martial arts skills, were inevitably at a loss.
Ling Jiheng raised his sword to block the enemies coming towards him, while Chi Xingyue took a slingshot and shot pills into the center of the crowd.
The Ling family had taken the antidote beforehand and were not afraid at all. However, the Bei Liao people panicked for a moment, during which Ling Ba took advantage of the situation to kill three people.
The Bei Liao people dared not be careless anymore and focused their attention on Ling Ba and the others. Er Zhu was accidentally cut by the big knife, and blood ran down his arm and soaked half of his cotton coat.
Chi Xingyue cursed inwardly, thinking that this was a serious injury to the aorta.
He quickly used his sleeve arrow to shoot and kill several nearby Bei Liao people, and asked Ling Jiheng to support Erzhu and bring him back.
The idea was good and the plan was implemented smoothly, but Erzhu's injury distracted Ling Ba, and the enemy's sword fell from the sky and chopped straight towards his head.
"Be careful!" Chi Xingyue said anxiously.
Ling Jiheng instinctively pulled out his gun and fired at the man. With a bang, the man fell to the ground, seven or eight meters away from Ling Jiheng.
The sudden sound made the scene quiet for a moment, but soon, the battle resumed.
Ling Jiheng threw the two pillars to Chi Xingyue, no longer hiding them, and shot several people in the head with his gun.
The people of Bei Liao panicked, their hands and feet seemingly paralyzed. Ling Ba and his men rushed to take lives. Even the people of Qingshan Village, cowering in their homes, came in the dark, knife-wielding.
There was order in the chaos. Except for two clever ones who left early, the rest were killed within a hundred meters of the Ling family mansion.
Ling Jiheng did not let the two enemies go either. As the saying goes, if you don't cut the grass at its roots, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows. He trotted forward and beat the other party with two bangs. He gave a wink to Ling Ba and Ling Jiu and tied them up.
The villagers of Qingshan Village looked at the blood all over the ground and the corpses lying all over the place, and they could no longer hold back and started vomiting.
Song Lizheng walked over tremblingly, tears streaming down his face.
"Ji Heng, nine people died in the village, nine!" They were all from the east end of the village, and there was even a family of four.
They took advantage of the Ling family attracting fire and went over to take a look. The tragic scene was unbearable to look at.
What could Ling Jiheng say? He couldn't say anything.
He hid the gun, patted Song Lizheng's arm, and asked Ling Shi to examine the body and dig out the bullet from the wound.
Ling Shi took the order and just took a few steps when he saw flames flowing on the mountain.
It turned out that they were just the vanguard of the Northern Liao people, and the main army was still behind.
Judging from the number of torches, there were at least three hundred people. Qingshan Village only had a few strong laborers, so how could they defeat the well-trained enemy?
In addition, the sleds worn by the Bei Liao people made them move at an extremely fast speed, and they were about to reach the foot of the mountain.
The noise here obviously alarmed them. Ling Jiheng glanced at everyone's kitchen knives and ladles, waved his hand unable to bear to look, and asked them to go to the Ling family's room to get their equipment.
They were all the machetes Chi Xingyue had put in before leaving the house. They were so sharp that even a couple of casual slashes could injure someone.
By the time the villagers came out, the group of Bei Liao people were already right in front of them.
Ling Jiheng brainwashed them: "Fellow villagers, we have to fight today even if we don't want to! If Bei Liao dares to kill our Qingshan villagers, we Qingshan villagers will rise up in resistance.
Killing one would cover my losses, killing two would be a profit. Even if I can't completely eradicate them, I would have done justice to our ancestors!"
Everyone in Qingshan Village was in a state of panic. Faced with the life-and-death situation, no one backed down.
With a cry of "Ah" to embolden himself, he rushed forward and hacked randomly without any rules, which frightened the Bei Liao people who had just come down the mountain and had not yet figured out the situation.
He was a little timid for a moment, which gave the Ling family a good opportunity to reap heads.
Unfortunately, they were too few in number, and the enemy was well-trained. In a short time, several people were hacked and wounded, but they still persisted with their swords.
Chi Xingyue had just sent Erzhu back to the cellar and saw this situation when he came out.
She quietly hid at the door and desperately threw the drugs into the crowd with her slingshot. One, two, three, she almost lost all her stock.
It's not that I feel sad, but this thing is slow to take effect and Ling Jiheng can't hold on any longer.
Chi Xingyue didn't dare to rush forward, fearing that he would be held back. He took out a pistol from the space, installed a silencer, and fired at the place where the crowd was not dense. Bang, bang, bang, several people from the Bei Liao on the periphery fell to the ground.
It was worth it that she had been hiding in the space and shooting guns every day for the past few days.
