There was a suffocating silence in the huge east courtyard, and you could hear a needle drop.
Everyone knows that Zhao Yuan is right. If the yard is gone, they will not be able to survive this winter. Especially those victims of land reclamation who once wandered have experienced this firsthand.
In this harsh winter, food alone is not enough, you also need a warm place to stay, otherwise, there is no hope of survival.
"Now, we have two choices. First, leave the east courtyard immediately and travel long distances in this snowy winter to find a safe place to wait for the coming spring. Of course, choosing this path requires excellent luck.
.First of all, you must bring enough food and clothes and bedding to keep out the cold; secondly, you must also ask gods and worshipers not to encounter disaster victims along the way; finally, you must find a safe place to stay. I think that the Qin Empire should not be able to find one at this time.
Went to some safe places."
"We won't consider the first one. What about the second one?" Surprisingly, it was Guo Axe, who was usually taciturn, who spoke this time.
"The second one is simple. Stay in Wanjia, protect Wanjia, and live and die with Wanjia. Here, I also want to tell you that if you stay in Wanjia, you have a greater chance of survival, even though there are twice as many enemies as us.
, However, they are unorganized and undisciplined. They are scattered and will disperse when they encounter danger. But we have neat clothes and a strong backing from the Wan family. They are short of money and food, hungry and cold, and cold.
Hungry. But we are well fed and warmly clothed. The food in the warehouse is piled up like a mountain and we can’t finish it. As long as we are united and united, no one can even think of stepping into this courtyard!"
"In addition, it is not safe to stay in Wanjia, because we are facing tens of thousands of mobs. They are no longer kind and honest people. They have turned into man-eating beasts. To defeat them, we need courage and
Determination to win! Here, I want to remind those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, if you feel that it is not worth fighting for your future, then leave Wanjia as soon as possible and leave this compound!"
"Mr. Qi, open the door." Zhao Yuan shouted to the concierge.
"Yes." Mr. Qi, who had been drowsy for a long time, became more agile at this time and immediately opened the door.
"Those who don't want to stay in Wanjia to fight can leave!" Zhao Yuan said every word.
"..."
There was a commotion in the yard, but no one left.
"Okay, since no one wants to leave, then get ready to start fighting!"
"Fight!" Guo Ax suddenly raised his iron ax and roared loudly, his voice thick and full of male power.
"Fight, fight!" The workers in the east courtyard raised their hoes and poles.
"Fight, fight!"
"Fight, fight!"
All the people in the east courtyard raised their weapons, and the men's majestic shouts set off waves of air, like a tide, overwhelming mountains and seas, shaking the sky and shaking the earth.
Inexplicably, people have a passionate impulse.
The burning desire to fight is burning.
Zhao Yuan raised his arms, and the boiling east courtyard immediately became quiet.
"To the east of Xujiaqiao Bridge, there are five streets running across each other and connected by lanes. East Street and Fenji Street, where Wanjia is located, are the only way for the mob. But now, we not only want to prevent the mob from invading Wanjia,
We also need to keep the enemy far away from Wanjia's courtyard so that they can't get close to Wanjia. There are many small alleys in Xujiaqiao. If we block the end of East Street, the mob will become a small group.
Small groups enter Dustpan Street and those densely packed alleys. As long as the mob disperses, they are not scary, because our population in Xujiaqiao exceeds 100,000, and our Wan family alone has more than 5,000 strong laborers, who can easily
Defeat them, well, let’s start fighting!”
Zhao Yuan gave an order, and thousands of strong men began to carry grain in the warehouse and built a thick "city wall" at the end of East Street.
Seeing thousands of men carrying food and building the city wall in an orderly manner like worker ants, Chen had an intuition that the Wan family's crisis had been resolved.
The troops were divided into two groups.
While the city wall was being built in the east courtyard, Wanjia began to notify the residents of Xujiaqiao to avoid the disaster. The residents took Xinruan with them and ran to the wilderness, or went to relatives, and some even hid in Wanjia. However, they could avoid the disaster.
Those who live there are ordinary people, and those wealthy families can only stick to their own homes.
Time passed minute by minute.
The strength of the people is great. In just a few dozen minutes, thousands of people built a city wall made of grain at the end of East Street. The wall was three meters high and seven meters thick. The back was built in a ladder shape. People could
Go directly to the city wall.
In addition to building a city wall at the end of the street, a city wall was also built with grain against the wall on the east side of the east courtyard. The city wall made of grain was slightly shorter than the fence. When people stood on it, the fence could be used as a shelter.
While the workers were in full swing, Zhao Yuan was chatting with Chen.
"Zhao Yuan, you are a talented general." Chen sighed.
"I wonder if Madam has any confidants?" Zhao Yuan asked Chen without answering.
"Confidant?"
"Yes, a confidant, a confidant who can sacrifice his life for the Wan family. Of course, the most important thing is to be able to keep secrets."
"Yes." Chen nodded affirmatively.
"Very well, ma'am, you can ask them to dress up as beggars now and sneak into the mob when there is chaos. When the mob and the Wan family are fighting in a stalemate, have them shout a few times, 'The Ma family has food.
, we can just go to Ma’s house.”
"Well, tell me the reason." Although Chen knew the reason, she wanted to hear Zhao Yuan's analysis.
"The mob is not that easy to deal with. They have nothing to lose except their lives. If they cannot grab food, they will still die. Between the choice of life and death, they have become desperadoes. If we
Not allowing the mob to divert will cause huge losses to the Wan family, so the only way is to move the target of the mob to the Ma family as soon as possible to relieve the pressure on the Wan family."
"I'll make arrangements."
Chen gave Zhao Yuan a meaningful look and immediately walked towards the west courtyard. This young man's overall view made even a shrewd person like Chen feel a little in awe.
Just as Wanjia was building a defense line in full swing, there was a cry of killing outside the town. The busy workers quickly climbed up the city wall made of food. When they took a look, everyone suddenly gasped.
Because the view from a high altitude is excellent, people can clearly see that on the official road outside the town, dense crowds of people are pouring in like a tide, giving people a numb scalp feeling.
When Zhao Yuan heard the shouts, he quickly climbed up the city wall at the end of the street and began to call on people to throw the porcelain they had prepared outside the city wall.
Crack, crackle...
There was an explosion like a firecracker, and some jars of porcelain were thrown out and fell to the ground, where they immediately turned into countless sharp porcelain pieces.
After a burst of throwing, under the command of Zhao Yuan, hundreds of people raised hoes, poles, kitchen knives, sickles and other objects and stood on the city wall to prepare. In just a few minutes, the tide of people had already surged over. They were approaching Wanjia Tower.
When they entered the courtyard, they began to spread out, covering the sky and covering the ground, which was extremely spectacular.
The workers on the city wall looked at the increasing number of victims, and all they could do was wait for the moment of confrontation.
In fact, at this time, even if they wanted to run, it was too late, because there were so many workers and victims of land reclamation under the city wall that they could not see the overwhelming mob outside. They were crowded together layer by layer, forming a thick line.
Thick human wall.
Close!
Getting closer!
Suddenly, the sky turned dark, and bricks flew from the sky. Wan's family was caught off guard, and their heads were smashed with blood. The workers on the city wall and the victims of land reclamation rushed away, and even the workers in the East Street were also affected.
Fortunately, after a burst of bricks, the situation suddenly reversed.
The shouting mob let out a burst of screams. It turned out that most of those mobs did not have any good shoes. In this cold season, some of the shoes were soaked in water and rotted. When they stepped on the sharp porcelain pieces on the ground, they were immediately pierced, and their feet were dripping with blood.
He screamed in pain.
