Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 7 Night Attack (Part )

Jiang's gentle voice calmed Mei Qian's panic.

Mei Qian turned her head and no longer cared about the screams of the refugees and the roar of the Western soldiers behind her.

She just followed the footsteps of everyone in the family and rushed towards the wealthy family.

When the whole family approached, they saw that the surroundings of the wealthy family were surrounded by troops and guards holding swords, bows, and shields.

They saw a group of people from Lao Mei's family approaching, with no expression on their faces.

However, one of them, a middle-aged man who was dressed differently from the others, frowned when he saw Mei Qian and others approaching, and opened his mouth to expel them.

They have no idea of ​​protecting anyone who is not from their own family.

Just as they drew their bows and shot arrows, they didn't care about the ordinary refugees who were mixed with the Xirong soldiers.

In their eyes, the people of Lao Mei's family who are coming now are no different from the Xirong soldiers who are about to rush over.

At this moment, Mei Qian saw her father suddenly take out the bow and arrows she usually used for hunting.

Mei Shitou followed suit, and the uncle and nephew stood in front of Mei Qian and the others. Such an expression made the person who refused look at them slightly.

But after just one glance, they still didn't want to let Mei Qian and the others in.

Just when Mei Erhu was about to say that they could fight with these people in exchange for protecting the other female relatives in the family, Mei Erhu saw the man's expression suddenly change.

"Squat down quickly!"

Mei Qian suddenly burst out with a penetrating scream.

Under the light of the fire, Mei Qian saw a Xirong soldier rushing forward on horseback from the middle-aged man's eyes!

Right behind their old Mei family!
As soon as the opponent's reins were reined in, the horse's forelegs were immediately raised, two points higher than the height at which the soldiers in front of them raised their shields.

And at that moment, the Western soldier raised his scimitar and slashed in the direction of Mei Qian and the others.

A sound of "clang" brought everyone back to their senses in shock.

Just when the scimitar was about to hit the scalps of everyone in Lao Mei's family, Mei Qian directly lifted up the iron pot she and her grandmother were holding and blocked the scimitar directly.

The next second the pot and the knife connected were so powerful that Mei Qian was overwhelmed. With a shake of her hand, the pot was directly smashed onto Mei Qian's head.

Duang~~~
The skull is buzzing.

The time difference Mei Qian earned by using the pot to block the knife was enough for Lao Mei to do more actions besides squatting.

Seeing the situation, Mei Shitou immediately rolled over and took the ax in his hand to get behind the cavalry horse, slashing directly at the horse's hind legs.

The painful horse screamed and shook its body and was about to fall over.

When Mrs. Mei saw this, she pulled out the long stick that everyone in the family was holding and stabbed it in the chest of the horse, causing the horse to fall in the opposite direction to where her family was.

"Why are you stunned! Why don't you take action yet?!"

The Xirong soldier who was thrown away by the horse was directly pounced on by Mei Erhu and fell to the ground.

At this moment, the soldiers who were dumbfounded by the sudden appearance of the Xirong soldiers came to their senses and stepped forward to kill the Xirong soldiers on the spot.

Mei Erhu, who was sprayed with blood on his face, immediately stood up, took the scimitar from the opponent's hand, and returned to his family with Mei Shitou again.

"Female family members, step back."

At this time, the middle-aged man who had rejected them spoke again, "We also ask the righteous to resist with us."

When the sound of "duang" in Mei Qian's head completely disappeared, she realized that four female members of her family had arrived behind this group of people.

"This……"

Mei Qian was stunned for a moment, and looked at the other people in the family, whose expressions were already serious and tense, and the sounds of killing continued in her ears. Only then did she realize that Mei Erhu and Mei Shitou were not around.

"Where are dad and eldest brother?"

A bad premonition flashed through Mei Qian's heart, and she turned to look at Mrs. Mei. Mrs. Mei held Mei Qian's arm tightly and said, "It's in front, but they will come back safely."

When Mei Erhu and Mei Shitou were left behind just now, Mrs. Mei's heart trembled. Although this was her original thought, Mrs. Mei regretted it a little when faced with the unexpected battle.

So close and so dangerous, if Mei Qian hadn't reacted and lifted the cauldron at the beginning, their family would have suffered casualties by now.

"Yes……"

Mrs. Mei's nervous look also made Mei Qian's heart suddenly twist into a ball.

However, because there were not many Xirong soldiers in each wild hunt, this time the formation in front changed again very quickly.

The formation that was still on the defensive turned from defense to attack when the "no one left behind" order came from the real convoys of the high-profile families not far away!
It was at this time that Mei Shitou and Mei Erhu appeared in their family's sight again.

"father!"

"Son!"

"Ms. sir..."

Looking at the blood on their bodies, everyone's expressions changed again and again.

But when they saw the sudden smiles of the uncle and nephew, everyone could no longer hold back and rushed forward, crying and laughing, expressing concern.

"It's all the blood of those Shirong dogs, Shitou and I are fine~"

Mei Erhu quickly explained to relieve the worries in everyone's hearts, "There are only a few wild hunters left. It is said that the big families have ordered people to hunt them down. Now we are fine!"

"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."

Mrs. Mei kept talking, and her whole body breathed a sigh of relief.

It must be that her dead husband-in-law has a spirit in heaven and protects the family's safety.

Mei Qian laughed out loud and glanced around. Her gaze suddenly fell on the dead horse and the dead Xirong soldier not far away. She squinted her eyes and glanced around again. Busy people.

No one cared about their family at the moment.

"elder brother."

Mei Qian approached Mei Shitou, who was still being held by Han to make sure she was okay, and shouted softly.

"Ok?"

Mei Shitou turned around and met Mei Qian's excited eyes.

"Let's go and feel if there is anything good on the corpses of those Western soldiers, and the horses over there. They say horse meat is not delicious...but, it is meat~"

Mei Qian's voice was not very quiet, and everyone else in Lao Mei's family present could hear her clearly.

Under the moonlight and firelight, when the family heard Mei Qian's words and looked at the enemy corpses close at hand, a faint green light flashed in everyone's eyes...

···
"My lord, this time all 232 of the Western Rong soldiers were wiped out, and we suffered 102 casualties."

The young man sitting in the carriage heard the report from the steward outside, lightly clasped his knees with his fingers, and said, "How many casualties are there in our Chen family?"

"The troops and guards totaled fifty-four casualties."

"Ho~"

The moment the steward finished replying, the sneers from the carriage made the steward break into a cold sweat on his back.

"Among the four families of Chen, Yan, Xu, and Wei, the Chen family has suffered the most. So is the Wei family bullying my Chen family and not being able to see through his plan?"

The voice of the person in the carriage was cold, and with the night breeze, the steward Chen San standing outside the carriage felt cold all over.

Suddenly, Chen San thought of something and said: "Tonight, for some reason, the Xirong soldiers rushed towards my Chen family first. They almost succeeded in rushing in at the beginning!"

"Elaborate."

　Hahahaha, the male protagonist may appear a little later.

　　It's still very precarious to wait for the food to be plentiful. With Qian Qian's personality, there is probably someone who will ignore her~
