Jiaohua

Chapter 773
Bai Wuniang and Bai Liuniang encouraged each other and went to find Zhan Jiuye together.

Seeing this, Master Zhan followed him outside.

After they all left, Du Xuan turned around and asked Xia Zhaoyi: "A Li, those two girls..."

"They are still young." Xia Zhaoyi said.

With this tone, Du Xuan wanted to say that you looked a year or two younger than them.

"They still have to grow up," Zhi Changle said, "That's good."

"Okay!" Old Tong put his arm on his shoulder, "You're getting old-fashioned, boy."

Zhi Changle sighed, usually interacting with Lao Tong at this moment, now there is nothing but a sigh.

Old Tong frowned, feeling something was wrong, and was about to ask a question, when Xia Zhaoyi said, "Tell me about the situation outside the village. We saw mass graves and corpses everywhere when we came here."

"This matter is really..." Du Xuan said, "Although we only came yesterday, it seems like we have been here for a month."

He told about those soldiers, horses, corpses, the opponents coming and going, tossing Qingxiang Village back and forth.

"It seems that they are determined to eat Qingxiang Village." Xia Zhaoyi said.

"Correct."

"Unfortunately, what a coincidence," Xia Zhaoyi smiled, "I decided on Qingxiang Village. After visiting the whole Youzhou, Qingxiang Village will be my gateway in Youzhou because of the right time, place, people and my appetite."

Du Xuan looked into her dark and bright eyes, and was delighted that the other party did not treat him as an outsider. She told him such an important matter directly, and at the same time couldn't help but whispered: "Ali, why is Qingxiang Village What? This place is actually not that good.”

Xia Zhaoyi smiled and said, "Brother Du, look."

She straightened an upside-down teacup, and flicked her slender fingers to the north along the teacup.

"Going up here, you can penetrate directly into the hinterland of Youzhou."

"Ah."

Xia Zhaoyi's finger moved south again.

"The supply in the south is convenient. Qingxiang Village is the southern part of the entire Youzhou. From the official road to Qingxiang Village, there are at least five feasible routes. We are not afraid that the supplies from Zhaozhou and Hengxiang will be cut off."

"Yep."

"To the east, you can display soldiers. To the west, deep in the mountains and ravines, you can deploy troops in a roundabout way, and be flexible."

Du Xuan looked at what her round and emerald fingertips were pointing at. Although it was on the bare desktop, he could imagine the terrain and mountains outside.

"That's not right," Du Xuan said, "Ah Li, the world is open to the east. For the opponent, it is beneficial to attack the barracks, but it is not beneficial to us."

Xia Zhaoyi smiled, and put the teacup to the east, there was a crisp and soft sound.

"What if the east side I'm talking about is this area? I can go there, and the enemy can come. This is the crossing ground."

Du Xuan's eyes lit up: "That's right, if I win, I will gain, and if the enemy wins, it will also be a battle for land."

"It's time to change the situation of being beaten!" Old Tong shouted, "I'm so useless! I'm going to rush out and kill the mother!"

Zhi Changle elbowed him: "What are you talking about! Be careful!"

The other men laughed.

When dinner was about to start, a militiaman ran over quickly, saying that the militiamen from outside the village had come again.

Zhan Jiuye, who was talking to Bai Wuniang and Bai Liuniang outside, cursed and ran towards the village.

After running a few steps, he suddenly slapped his head: "How could I forget Miss Ali!"

He turned and ran to the courtyard behind.

Lao Tong and Zhi Changle were walking towards the kitchen, intending to help serve the dishes together, when they saw Zhan Jiuye running, the two stopped, and saw Zhan Jiuye go in to find Xia Zhaoyi, panting that those dog-skin plasters were gone again. coming.

As soon as the words fell, another militiaman rushed over: "General, it's not good, General!"

"What's wrong!" Zhan Jiuye said hurriedly.

"They're going to set our carbine guns on fire! It's on fire!"

"What!" Zhan Jiuye's face turned pale, and he raised his foot to leave again. This time, he stopped in time and looked at the girl behind the Eight Immortals table, "Miss Ali, help us!"

Xia Zhaoyi smiled: "Very good, Mr. Zhan Jiu, let them burn it."

"Yes," Du Xuan also laughed, "It's easy for us to burn it, let's burn it!"

"Ah? But..."

"There is a three-foot-wide ditch behind the carbine gun. After they burn it, they have to go through that ditch to kill them in the village. I guess they have already cut down the big wooden bridge to pave the road." Xia Zhaoyi said.

"So, wouldn't it be easier for us to pick up a ready-made one?" Du Xuan said.

"Correct."

Zhan Jiuye looked at Xia Zhaoyi, then at Du Xuan: "Miss Ali, this is..."

"Don't be afraid, Mr. Zhan Jiu," Xia Zhaoyi said gently, "Do as I say later."

The fire in front of the village burned quickly, and the militiamen dumped a lot of dry grass under the carbine gun. The dry climate in autumn and winter was really good for burning, and the huge carbine gun turned red after a short while.

The militiamen from Qingxiang Village rushed to water it with water. There was a river next to it, which was close, but there was still a three-foot-wide ditch inside the carbine gun, and there was not enough space for the large wooden boards for walking. People were crowded together, and many people fell into the ditch.

Watching them hustle and bustle, the militiamen laughed loudly from thirty feet away, and at the same time showed dozens of large wooden boards they had prepared, which frightened the people who put out the fire even weaker.

Zhan Qiye and Mo Wuye were commanding behind the crowd, and turned around to see Zhan Jiuye and Zhan Baye running out of the village. Mo Wuye walked over quickly, but Zhan Jiuye immediately found Zeng Jishi, and asked him to call someone. stop.

"Why stop?!" Fifth Master Mo cried.

Zhan Jiuye didn't explain, and ordered other people to pass on the message.

Master Zhan stopped Fifth Master Mo and told him to leave it alone.

Everyone was puzzled, but gradually stopped, looking back at the "generals" behind.

"Send all the buckets back!" Zhan Jiuye shouted, "Go to the ancestral hall and obey my orders!"

"Go to the ancestral hall now?" Zhan Qiye walked quickly.

"Yes!" Zhan Jiuye shouted, "Everyone come to the ancestral hall, listen to me, hurry up!"

"Hurry up!" Ba Ye Zhan also called out, "Everyone go!"

The militiamen in the distance gradually realized something was wrong.

The few leaders looked at Zhong Qiankun in the crowd.

"Military division, why is it a little strange?" A lieutenant general said.

"Yes," said another, "are they not putting out the fire?"

"It's useless to save them. Could it be that they are planning to flee into the mountains because they think there is no way to save them?" Another person said.

Zhong Qiankun didn't speak, his eyes were so excited for the first time, and he was looking at the fire that was burning more and more intense in the distance.

These carbine-rejecting guns are as tall as two grown-up men. One can imagine how much effort Qingxiang Village spent on building them. It was also the carbine-repelling guns that got in the way that killed batch after batch of people. Now it’s cool. , let it go clean with a fire.

"There is no one left!"

"They're all gone!"

"Could it be true to retreat to the back mountain?"

"Hurry up!" Someone looked at Zhong Qiankun, "Military Master, they definitely won't be able to take all the food away, let's hurry up!"

Yes, food!
