Finally, one night, at some unknown time, a hundred refugees suddenly came from outside the city. They took hoes and dug into the wall, and used brute force to bang on the wooden door, one hit after another.
The people on the high tower had rang the gong early. When Song Yuehua arrived, Zhou Dafu was directing people to throw stones and fire pots down, which scared away a lot of people, but there were still people banging on the gate below.
Song Yuehua, Liu Youfu and others put arrows on their bows and aimed at the refugees who were banging on the door below one after another. The people below got door panels from somewhere and blocked the group of people. It was a waste of effort to shoot arrows at them.
Duan Yidao took out two large swords and said, "I'll go."
"Wait a moment."
Song Yuehua felt that something was a little uneasy. The fighting power these people had shown so far was too weak, and it was easy to think of them as a group of desperate refugees. But how did they know that the villagers could shoot arrows and make preparations in advance?

Even when the leaders were almost all killed, they were still able to organize people to attack the village. The enemy must have come prepared, otherwise they would not have carried wooden door panels with them.
So, how many people are hiding in the darkness?
"Bring the lamp oil here, I need to light a lamp." Song Yuehua said to Wei Dadao.
He wrapped cotton cloth around the arrow head, dipped it in lamp oil and lit it. He shot an arrow to the left, and the oil wood high up was ignited. Then he shot three arrows, illuminating the darkness outside the wall. When they saw the crowd below, everyone gasped.
The crowd was densely packed, and at a glance there were probably several hundred people.
Duan Yidao sucked in a breath of cold air. He did not expect that there would be so many people. No matter how powerful their martial arts were, if they really went down, it would be difficult for them to escape unscathed.
"Master, what should we do now?" Liu Xue asked.
Song Yuehua turned her head to look at her and said, "Wait a minute. Whoever dares to come forward will be killed one by one."
