Pick up a daughter-in-law to farm

Chapter 1038
On this day, the village chief called all the villagers to the sun-drying field. Zhang Changshan generously stated the current situation: "...Our village is quite famous in Liuhu Town. We are not afraid of ten thousand but just in case. So from today, everyone will take turns Guard the gate of the village and never let a refugee in! Do you have confidence?"

Protecting your own homeland, no one dares to take it lightly.

Immediately, the echoes in the grain drying field were loud: "Yes!"

"Have!"

"Have!"

Seeing how united the village is now, Zhang Changshan's face was full of satisfaction: "Okay, now everyone go back and get ready, one from each family will come out and set up the sentry first, and the rest of the labor force will do other preparations."

This call was immediately answered, and the 67 big men who were all in a hurry stood in three rows.

After the village chief explained what to do, everyone immediately went home and picked up the guy and headed for the gate of the village.

The gate of the village is made by the coagulation method of pig's blood used in ancient emperors' tombs. This kind of concrete is made of pig's blood mixed with mud and sand. Once it dries naturally, it will be as hard as a rock, and it will not break open even with a thousand pounds of strength.

The mud was also applied on the door panel, so it is not afraid of people hitting it with wood, as long as someone firmly guards it.

But in order to prevent refugees from climbing the wall, at Sang Yue's suggestion, two barrels of tung oil were specially used to rinse the wall, and a lot of stone and wooden sticks were erected on the two-meter-wide wall to prevent being attacked by force .

The hungry people are as fierce as tigers. For the lives of their families and children, the villagers cheered up to defend day and night.

This kind of defense was not superfluous. On August 25, the big drum of Xin'an on the wall of the Walled City rang loudly, and all the strong laborers in the village rushed to the gate of the Walled City.

When Sangyue and the women carried a basket of Wowotou up the wall of the Walled City, and saw the more than 100 ghost-like men and women on the mountain road crying, she felt sore and wanted to open the door. impulse.

Aunt Zhang even wiped away her tears, stepped forward to discuss with the village chief, and then stood at the forefront: "Young masters, aunts and sisters-in-law, please stop arguing. Our village chief has also told you a lot, don't I won’t talk about it. We understand everyone’s difficulties now, but please also understand us. There are poor families in the village, and life has improved in the past two years. It really can’t accept so many of you.

Everyone knows that natural disasters and man-made disasters are unexpected, and no one has much surplus food, and I believe you are the same.In this troubled world, everyone's food is a treasure, but even if it is a treasure, we can't just watch you starve to death.Just now our village chief said that we will use the spare energy of the whole village to give each person five corn buns, and you can go to other places if you take them. "

After fleeing all the way and eating the little food in their own house, this group of people has not had real food for many days.

When they saw Wowotou that were bigger than fists hanging down from the stockade, someone suddenly shouted, and then a group of people knelt under the door and shouted: "Thank you benefactor for saving your life!"

"Benefactor, please accept my worship!"

There are five Wowotou for one person. Sang Yue thought the fight would be chaotic, but she didn't expect this group of people to be in order.

The young and the old went up first, and then the women, and it was not messy at all, which surprised the people on the wall.

Especially when there were still three lone Wowotou left in the end, Sang Yue approached Zhang Changshan and said a few words with a choked heart, and then he shouted loudly: "Which of you is the leader?"

The sauce factory is already empty, except for some original sauce buried in the ground, some of the grain harvested recently is still in the cellar.

Those grains were originally reserved for 36 guards to eat, but there was a letter from Fei Ge that they were going to stay at the border.

Sangyue tells everyone not to wander around, there is chaos everywhere, and there is only a dead end.

The leader is a middle-aged man, with a righteous face, it can be seen that this man must have an identity.

Sure enough, under Zhang Changshan's call, he turned back and replied: "Mao Zhixuan, the head of the Mao clan in Maojiawan, Shanshan Town, Xiayunzhou, what orders does my benefactor have?"

When patriarch Mao heard that his people were allowed to live in the town, he immediately refused: "When the village chief is so righteous in saving our people from life and death, since there is food to protect our lives, we don't want to go to any town. I saw a big flat at the corner in front of me, so the whole clan can set up tents and live there temporarily, and it can also block another wave of refugees in the village."

In this way, Wei Shanzhai had a loyal guard team.

The food was quietly brought back from the town at night with each person carrying a cloth bag. The sheds were built one by one by the men in the village with tools. The pots and pans were squeezed out one by one. Suddenly a new village was surrounded. Half a mile under the gate of the cottage settled down.

The people of the Mao clan are naturally not cowards. With the help of the people in the Weishanzhai village, all the land that can be reclaimed is planted with vegetables. The men go to the mountains to learn to hunt, and the women go to the mountains to pick wild vegetables and wild fruits.

Although they can't eat their fill, but for the Mao family who have been homeless for three months, this is already a good day!

The chaos has continued, and more and more refugees are flocking to the north.

On this day, Zhang Changshan called everyone together again: "It seems that these days are even more difficult. I figured out how to build another village gate in front of the mountain nest where Mrs. Mao lived. What do you think?"

In the past few days, everyone took turns to go down the mountain to find out the news. Those who could run away in the town ran away, and those who had nowhere to go stayed at home and did not dare to let any homeless person enter the house.

The weather is getting colder and colder, not to mention that there is no harvest for the whole season, and the south is still fighting hard.

Liuhu Town is a large town connecting the north and the south, and there are as many people fleeing like ants every day. It is hard to guarantee that more refugees will not flock to the mountain again.

Hungry tigers rush to eat, and extremely hungry people are more terrifying than tigers, and some will even exchange their offspring for food.

The words of the village chief won the support of everyone, and the members of the Mao clan were all brave enough to start the work after hearing it.

It's too late to build the stone wall, and no one knows when a large number of people will come in.

If you can't build stones, you can only use trees as the base.

So on this day, the whole Weishanzhai fell trees, dug ditches, sand-picked sand, and lime-searched lime. This is a concerted effort that has never been seen in the history of Weishanzhai.

In just three days, a second gate was erected on the Panshan Road surrounding the village, and the Mao clan piled up a large amount of earth, rocks and miscellaneous trees behind the gate, just in case.

On this day, everyone was discussing about the autumn harvest when Erdan came back: "Uncle Village Chief, Jia Ershan is back."

Upon hearing Jia Ershan's words, Zhang Changshan's eyes were filled with hatred, and he narrowed his eyes: "Is he alone?"

Sandanzi nodded again and again: "Well, he's the only one."

Now he dare not open the gate of the stockade casually, let alone let anyone in.

"Go and investigate again to see if he really came back alone."
