Chapter 423: This trick again
"Come on!"
An Yue stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the scene halfway up the mountain, and couldn't help laughing.
The group of young men held wooden sticks in their hands and shouted loudly, "Charge!"
At this time, the officers were attacked from both sides and were all panicked.
An Yue, who was standing on the top of the mountain, could see that the group of young and middle-aged men in the village had no intention of fighting the officials head-on.
They were just shouting and charging with all their might, but in fact their attack power depended entirely on shouting.
The officers were attacked from all sides, their inner defenses were broken, and they all dropped their swords and raised their hands in surrender.
There was a burst of cheers in the village.
A group of bandits rushed over and surrounded the officers.
Wu Lin shouted, "Leave behind all your clothes and valuables!"
The leading officer muttered helplessly, "Here we go again!"
In this situation, An Yue quickly covered her mouth, fearing that she would laugh out loud.
The leading officer saw that he was surrounded by bandits, and a group of them were injured by rolling stones and lay on the ground.
Looking at the bandits around them, they had no choice but to do as they were told and took off their clothes and swords one by one.
Although the sky is sunny at this time, it is already winter.
A group of officers stripped down to their underpants, hugged their arms and hunched their necks due to the cold.
Seeing that the officers had all taken off their clothes, Wu Lin shouted to the young men at the foot of the mountain: "Brothers, let them go!"
Only then did the young and middle-aged men in the village let them go down the mountain.
A battle ended just like that.
Suddenly, cheers of victory were heard, resounding throughout the entire forest, deafening.
A few people were left behind to keep watch, and the rest returned to the village.
Return to the village.
A group of bandits placed all the seized items and equipment in the open space under the stone steps.
A group of people returned triumphantly, and everyone was excited.
Wu Wenshan laughed heartily and said loudly: "Today, the brothers cooperated very well and did a great job!"
Everyone cheered in unison: "Good! Good! Good!"
Wu Wenshan raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
Soon, everyone fell silent.
Wu Wenshan said to the women, "Ladies, sort out all the clothes, count them out, wash them, and distribute them to the brothers."
One of the women smiled and said, "Great, great, with these clothes, the men won't have to suffer from the cold when they go out."
Wu Wenshan's wife joked, "These officers really don't learn their lesson. They've been stripped naked several times, yet they still dare to come!"
As soon as Wu Wenshan's wife finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter.
Wu Wenshan turned around and said to his son Wu Lin, "Ah Lin, take Li Erdan, Zhang Kuang and others to put all these equipment in the weapon room."
"Okay! Dad." Wu Lin and others started to work quickly.
After Wu Wenshan made the arrangements, he quickly walked up to An Yue and Li Jing and said gratefully, "This time, it was really thanks to your help that we were able to repel these officials so quickly."
Li Jing bowed and said modestly: "Master, you are too kind. Dongwu Mountain is in a dangerous terrain, and the mountain stronghold is in an excellent location blessed by nature. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack."
An Yue smiled and said, "This time, we have witnessed the great feat of the village as a big family, united as one in facing the outside world."
"It's just that...when the officials return to the county this time, I wonder how furious the county magistrate will be!"
Wu Wenshan waved his hands and said disdainfully: "It would be better if we could make that old county magistrate angry to death!"
Another old woman in the crowd, with her arms folded, echoed, "That's right! That bastard official must be pissed off!"
An Yue looked at Wu Wenshan seriously and said, "However, I have something to say. I don't know if I should say it."
Wu Wenshan responded generously: "Miss, if you have something to say, just say it directly."
"Speaking of which, this county magistrate has suffered several serious losses at our hands. He must hate us to death."
"What if...what if he puts all the blame on everyone and asks his superiors for military support."
“When the time comes, we will report this to the higher authorities, and the imperial court will definitely send troops to encircle and suppress the village.”
After listening to An Yue's words, everyone slowly woke up from their joy.
Wu Wenshan nodded in agreement and said, "Well, what the girl said is very true. It seems that we need to strengthen the defense and attack of the village, and the brothers need more training."
Wu Wenshan's wife came over and said affirmatively: "Miss An Yue's reminder is very good. We must be prepared to deal with it in advance so that we can protect our family."
......
Suddenly, everyone present started talking one after another.
An Yue raised her hands to cover her face and looked at the sky. She leaned close to Li Jing's ear and said, "Uncle Jing, it's getting late now. Let's take them back to the village!"
Li Jing agreed: "Yes, yes, we have to hurry back so that our family won't worry."
So, An Yue said to Wu Wenshan: "Boss, the crisis has been resolved. It's time for us to return to the village."
Wu Wenshan's wife walked up to An You, took An Yue's hand, and said with a smile:
"Girl, the brothers have helped us a lot, so we have to treat them well no matter what. Stay in the village tonight, drink a lot of wine, eat a lot of meat, and go down the mountain tomorrow morning!"
"Aunt, the elderly in my family are already very worried about us coming here this time. If we don't go back tonight, I'm afraid they will have sleepless nights."
Wu Wenshan stepped forward and said, "Chengchengcheng, benefactor, what you said makes sense. We have been out for a long time and our families must be worried. So we won't force you to stay. Please be careful on your way back."
After that, Wu Wenshan said to his son Wu Lin: "Ah Lin, call a few brothers to bring out the wine we brewed, and give each of these brothers a jar to express our gratitude."
Li Jing quickly stepped forward and said, "Boss, this is absolutely impossible. We have not been able to help you much this time, so we cannot accept you."
Wu Wenshan put his hand on Li Jing's shoulder and said, "Brother Li, although we are bandits, we also have principles in doing things."
"These little brothers are willing to help us. Just for their loyalty and loyalty, they are willing to sacrifice their lives for us. This jar of wine is really precious. Why can't we accept it?"
When Li Jing heard Wu Wenshan say this, he couldn't refuse the kindness.
So, he bowed and thanked them: "Okay, okay, then I will thank the boss and all the brothers and sisters in the village on their behalf."
After saying that, Wu Lin quickly brought a pile of wine jars and handed the wine one jar at a time to the group of young men.
Afterwards, with Wu Wenshan's farewell, Anyue, Li Jing and others walked out of the village gate.
When the group of people reached the middle of the mountain, An Yue hurriedly reminded them, "Everyone, put on your masks and don't let anyone recognize us."
Li Jing stopped and checked everyone's masks, and said, "Yueyue is right, everyone should disguise themselves better."
A group of people walked down the mountain.
