Chapter 212 Attacking the Stronghold 1
Zhang Ci smiled and said: "Look at the appearance of the village, and understand the population structure and harvest income of each village."

"Will there be false reports?" Chen Fan asked.

Zhang Ci made a gesture to flick her forehead, but she flicked for a moment.

"Stupid, with such a great official in front of you, what grievances and sufferings can you not repay?" He continued to reach out and patted Chen Fan's head.

At breakfast, Chen Ya's mood was much better than last night, and her appetite did not decrease.Chen Fan smiled and called the girls "four little cuties".

Chen Zhongliang was not happy: "We are also cute."

"That's right! The ninth brother is also cute!" Chen Fan said with a smile.

Chen Zhonglin and Chen Zhongmei are unwilling to claim "cute", saying that they have grown up.Chen Ya immediately said: "Then you are not cute."

"It's not that it's not cute, it's just..." Chen Zhonglin didn't know how to refute.Chen Yue smiled: "You can't even talk to my younger sister, how can you argue with people in the court?"

"It's not that you can't argue, it's just..." Chen Zhonglin still couldn't explain clearly.Everyone laughed.

Yan Shoulu led the team to set off westward, marched for a day, and arrived near a Langshan Mountain.Chen Zhongzhu and Chen Zhongyan got off their horses, and their legs couldn't stand still.

"Does your leg hurt?" Yan Shoulu asked them.

"It hurts!" The two grinned, their inner thighs seemed to be scalded.

"It's like riding a horse all day long. It'll be fine if you get used to it later. If it wasn't for the fear that you might not be able to keep up physically, I would have you walk for half a day and ride for half a day." Yan Shoulu didn't take the leg pain seriously.

The two children struggled to stand up, and followed behind the fire soldier, helping to carry the cooking utensils and laying hands down.The fire fighters are also unwilling to let their children walk more, and they try to arrange activities for them as close as possible.

The noodles are made during the noon break, and the steamed buns can be steamed in the evening.The soldiers were busy kneading dough and cutting steamed buns, while the two children started to build a fire to boil water.

The fireman, surnamed Lei, jokingly said while kneading the dough: "You two little dolls, lighting a fire is quite decent, why do you still have to work after adoption?"

"It's normal for children in the country to be able to light a fire. I can do it at the age of three," Chen Zhongzhu said.

"What about you? You don't look like someone who has been doing rough work since childhood." Lei Huo looked at Chen Zhongyan.

Chen Zhongyan is very calm: "I didn't know it when I was a child, but I gradually learned it later. I can also cut steamed buns and make dumplings."

"It's so strange, boys can also cook." Lei Huotou forgot that he was also cooking.

"It doesn't hurt to be able to cook." Chen Zhongyan said.

The firemen began to cut the steamed buns, and Lei Huotou began to chatter again: "Your elder sister really has a way, the steamed buns are big and delicious. We learned a trick from her."

"Eldest sister's cooking is delicious." The two children praised in unison.

"Then you are blessed with delicious food every day." The chief fireman was very happy.

Yan Shoulu came over: "Why did you two automatically join the Huotou Army?"

Chen Zhongyan didn't raise his head: "I don't have the strength to set up camp. It just so happens that they are cooking in this place, so we help boil water."

"Very good, it can be used to some extent." Yan Shoulu left after saying a word.

Just after dinner, it was pitch black.The black shadow of the mountain has a heavy sense of oppression.The early winter wind was chilling, howling in the dark night.The two children were smearing medicine on each other in the tent.

"The medicine my brother-in-law gave is really good. It's cool and comfortable, and my legs don't hurt so much." Chen Zhongzhu happily ignored the pain.

"Brother-in-law's sore medicine is also very good, do you want to use it?"

"No, no." Chen Zhongzhu shook his head.

After lying down for a while, Chen Zhongzhu didn't fall asleep. After turning over a few times, he still couldn't help asking Chen Zhongyan: "Will someone come to sneak attack? Shall we go sneak attack?"

Chen Zhongyan closed his eyes: "It's not our turn to sneak attack. Those who receive the task will carry out it. Someone who comes to sneak attack happens to fall into a trap. Our tent is not the main tent and will not be the main target. You should sleep well Raise your spirits and start fighting tomorrow."

"Have you ever fought a war?" Chen Zhongzhu continued to ask.

"No, I used to stay at home and didn't go out very much."

"Have you ever fought?"

"Fight often, fight according to the rules."

"That's called a competition, not a fight. I often fight in the village. I beat anyone who bullies my sister outside, but my family bullies us. We have no choice. I always want to fight back, but I am too young and too weak. I can't beat the adults, so I can only endure and endure." Chen Zhongzhu mentioned the past again, and fell asleep while talking.

All night.

In the early morning of the next day, except for those who stayed in the camp, everyone set off in two teams.

Yan Shoulu's team took the front, the obvious mountain road.The mountain road was quite easy to walk, and when I walked halfway up the mountain, I saw a village gate.

A soldier with a loud voice began to shout: "We are ordered to suppress the bandits, please put down your weapons, and let you not die!"

No one paid attention to them, and the soldiers were not annoyed.This kind of Xiaozhai gate is the outermost gate to mark the territory. When you are happy, arrange two people to guard it. When you are too lazy to manage it, let it stand alone and have no defense.

A soldier stepped forward, wielded a machete, and chopped down the gate of the village.

A cage was opened, and several rabbits rushed out quickly, and soon disappeared without a trace.Chen Zhongzhu's eyes widened, and he used the rabbit to lead the battle?
A few arrows flew out and hit the trunk, or grazed the branches, and fell elsewhere.

There was no sound of any mechanism starting.Yan Shoulu waved his hand, and the team set off again, walking up the mountain road.

The mountain became steeper, and the horse gradually struggled to walk.Everyone dismounted, leaving a few people guarding the horses, while others continued to climb the mountain.

After walking for half an hour, another gate appeared in front of him.This gate of the village is obviously much taller, and there are many people guarding the gate of the village.

The loud voice surnamed Yuan repeated what he had just said.The guards didn't talk nonsense, and directly shot a round of arrows.

Missed.The army was out of range of the bandits.

The second round of arrows was shot again, with an aura far exceeding that of the first round, and it struck quickly.The soldiers had already stepped back a few steps, raised their shields, and blocked the arrows.Some arrows leaked in through the gaps, but they also hit the armor or were blocked by the knife, causing no damage.

As soon as the sound of falling arrows stopped, the soldiers quickly spread out to both sides and stood under the big tree.Not flanked by cliffs, they have plenty of room to move.

A few big pieces of tongue rolled down, but the soldiers had already avoided it.

Several archers climbed up the tree, unplugged the torches, lit the oilcloth on the arrows, picked up their bows and set arrows, and the arrows flew towards the gate of the village with a fierce attack, and someone was hit by an arrow!The gate of the village is covered with sparks!
The past few days have been sunny, the gate of the village is on fire, and the dry grass around it is stained with sparks, and it also burns quickly. The soldiers guarding the gate are in a mess, constantly patting the fire on their bodies, and rolling on the ground.
