Chapter 316 How is the progress on Ah Bing’s side?
"As for why I didn't tell you right away, my father said that military morale is very important. If I told you not to fight too hard right away, I'm afraid you would show mercy and let them attack us. What if we do that?" Jiang Ying's face, which was red from the firelight, smiled brightly.
After all, the safety of everyone in the village is also very important.
Except for a few people around, everyone showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
No wonder!
Now half of the opponent has been injured and their attack power has been greatly weakened, so I dare to talk to them.
Shen Qing concluded: "Now our main task is to defend, and it would be best if we can hold off the enemy until tomorrow afternoon."
By tomorrow afternoon, A Bing and the others will be able to move away and hide themselves so they won't be hit.
Fang Ting whispered, "We're in the village now. We have food and firewood. If we're really sleepy, we can take a nap around the fire. If we decide to delay it until tomorrow afternoon, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
The others nodded heavily!
"Next time I'll be gentler and not injure as many people. If they see hope, won't they stay?"
"Yes, we should just hold on and not fight them. We'll keep delaying them until tomorrow afternoon."
Shen Qing shook his head and smiled: “It’s not our problem. Their large number has both advantages and disadvantages;
The advantages are obvious, but the disadvantage is that eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping in the wilderness in this cold winter are all problems.
Besides, they are just a bunch of ragtag people gathered together temporarily, with no unity and no one wants to suffer. So, being able to hold out until tomorrow noon is probably the limit."
A bad night of sleep, several bad meals, and many people are injured, plus the Chinese New Year is just two days away. Who wants to waste time here? Who doesn't want to go home to a wife and children and a warm bed!
Jiang Ying followed with a smile and said, "So we have to lure them. Let them see some hope at noon tomorrow and hold on until the afternoon.
It’s like flying a kite. You let out the string when you need to, but if you let out too much you have to pull it back and tighten it to keep it in your hand.”
Boss Lei felt a sharp pain in his head and chose to ask directly: "Then how can we give them hope?"
The others opened their mouths and looked at Shen Qing and Jiang Ying in unison.
I don’t think of myself as stupid on a daily basis. Sometimes I even think I’m very smart and clever. How come I understood every word of what you just said, but don’t understand what to do when you put them together?
Zhou Yan was good at this. She hurriedly stepped forward to teach everyone: "Act just like on the stage. For example, oh, I can't do it anymore. I haven't slept all night and can't hold on any longer. Who of you will take over for me?
Besides, I’m starving. I haven’t eaten for several meals and I have no strength left. I can’t even stand up~”
"Okay, okay, I know how to do this! I'll make sure they believe it so much that they can't believe it anymore."
"Oh, I can't. I'm afraid I'll burst out laughing while I'm talking."
"I can't do it either. I can use physical strength, but this is much more difficult than using physical strength!"
"Then let me do it. It's just right for the other side to think that we have no one left and can only send women to the field~"
......
Shen Qing's eyes were filled with smiles, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised as he looked at his friends who were talking and laughing.
I don't know how things are going with A Bing.

At night, Qin Dazhu and Zhou Sanshan stayed behind to guard the donkey cart.
The other ten people put on black hoods that only exposed their eyes and mouths - given by Shen Qing, who said that using cloth to cover the ears, mouth and nose would not work. Not only would it not cover the face tightly, it would also fall off easily.
This kind of headgear can keep you warm and windproof in winter. Even your mother won’t be able to recognize you!
The most appropriate and safe.
The ten people tiptoed towards the granary.
This is a dilapidated house outside the city. It looks shabby and dilapidated from the outside. Who would have thought that there would be a large amount of grain piled up inside.
"Damn it! They let me guard the food in this shabby house, while the three of them are living a life of luxury in their house in the city, not even afraid of being struck by lightning!" The voice of Old Lady Liu was heard cursing.
Another young woman smiled and soothed: "Aunt, this is not Brother Liu's fault. If you want to blame someone, blame your daughter-in-law for not being a good daughter-in-law.
But Brother Liu has grown up now. How can a daughter-in-law serve you as well as you? I think it’s time to find someone to serve Brother Liu attentively, so that your daughter-in-law can also know how powerful you are! "
After a long while, Mrs. Liu's voice of approval was heard: "You are right. I am going to set some rules for her!"
Huo Bing sneered.
How many days have you only had enough to eat? You're already thinking about torturing your daughter-in-law and providing support for your son.
When they were suffering, they were afraid that Wang Chuntao would run away, but when life got better, they started to dislike her.
Fortunately, Wang Chuntao is also a person who will not suffer any loss. This is what she has obtained with all her efforts. They are both evil people, and it takes evil to deal with each other. It’s good that it’s not her aunt who is being tortured.
Jiang Xiangxi and Jiang Xiangbei had the same idea at this moment.
The two men in the room were still talking loudly, discussing with each other how to deal with their daughter-in-law Wang Chuntao.
Jiang Dabao kicked open the locked door, Feng Meng and Feng Xing stepped forward quickly, and slashed at the shoulders and necks of the two men with a knife. Before the two men could even howl, their eyes rolled back and they fainted.
The two were moved to the side, and Feng Xing and Feng Tao guarded them, while the rest of the people quickly carried the food towards the donkey cart.
Sack after sack, trip after trip, they themselves couldn't even remember how much there was in total!
The more I moved, the more tired I felt physically but the more relaxed I felt mentally.
Especially those who go west and north of the river.
Mother bought food for 123 people at once. Although she always said that the food was almost enough, everyone in the family knew that it was probably far from enough!
Mother must have been constantly worried about food, but she was afraid they would worry too, so she forced herself not to complain. They were useless and couldn't help much. But now, with this batch of food, Mother doesn't have to worry anymore...
Six double donkey carts can carry four to five thousand kilograms each time, and the grain as high as a hill in front of them is obviously more than five thousand kilograms. Qin Dazhuo, Zhou Sanshan, Jiang Xiangbei, Feng Meng, Feng Xinglei and Ergui drove the donkey carts to transport the first batch of grain to the grain storage area.
These were chosen early in the afternoon when they came here. One was far away and the other was close, in case someone accidentally discovered and moved them away, keeping them separate could at least reduce the loss.
The remaining six stayed behind to guard the remaining food.
The first thing they delivered was the food from far away. After the food was unloaded, it was covered with oilcloth and then covered with dry grass and branches. The six people quickly returned to pull the remaining sacks.
This time it was close, and everyone worked together to help unload, move and hide the goods, so the speed was obviously much faster.
After all the food was hidden, Huo Bing looked at the position of the moon above his head and estimated that the time was late Chou hour but before Yin hour (a little after two but less than three in the morning).
People sleep most soundly during this period.
The twelve people have been running on the road since noon until now, and have been working hard to transport food, but at this moment, when they think about what they are going to do next, they don't feel sleepy or tired at all.
Huo Bing's eyes were particularly bright.
