Chapter 278 Besieged

Everyone fell silent and looked at her quietly.

"Brothers, I know you suspect that Ye Shihan is causing trouble this time, and I suspect him too, but the matter has reached this point, and we have no other choice but to deal with the enemy first. After the matter is over, I will personally find him to settle the matter.

, please give me some time."

Hearing what she said, everyone nodded.

"Master, we listen to you. Just give your orders. We will do whatever you ask us to do."

"Yes, we will explain to the brothers later that the boss is devoted to the brothers. The brothers understand in their hearts that if Ye Shihan really betrayed us, he is the enemy of Jitoushan, and we will definitely not tolerate him."

"Yes, don't tolerate him."

"Don't let him..."

"Quiet."

Su Muer suddenly frowned and shouted, "At the moment, the main thing is to deal with the enemy, everything else comes second."

After saying that, everyone became quiet again, waiting for her arrangements.

"Since the officers and soldiers have not yet made any plans to go up the mountain, we are waiting to see what happens. In the past few days, no one is allowed to go down the mountain. We have guarded all intersections and set up obstacles halfway up the mountain. According to the old rules, we have hidden the road on the mountain and let them touch it.

No way.”

"Understood, I'll just follow the master's instructions."

Su Mu'er felt sad when she saw everyone's trustful eyes and full of expectations.

"Brothers, starting from today, everyone will take turns to rest without any slack. Now, while these officers and soldiers have not yet gone up the mountain, everyone hasten to seal the road and seal the road. Even if there are acquaintances coming, they will not be able to relax.

I will definitely be able to climb Chicken Head Mountain."

When she said this, her eyes were firm and her voice was high-pitched without any delay.

After hearing this, everyone retreated one after another. Uncle Wu and Liu Jin were the only ones left in the room.

At this time, Liu Jin was even more worried about Su Muer's mood.

The days during this period were so peaceful that everyone thought there would be no war. This sudden pressure made Su Muer feel as heavy as a big stone on her heart.

"An'an, the imperial court has been suppressing bandits since ancient times. Don't blame yourself. Besides, this matter is not necessarily related to Ye Shihan."

She knew that Liu Jin was comforting her.

She gave a self-deprecating smile, got up and walked slowly to the window. She felt sad when she saw the place where he knelt last time.

Is he that good at acting in front of me?

If this matter had nothing to do with him, then what was he doing? He couldn't have known in the capital that the court would come to suppress the bandits. Why didn't he expose it? This makes no sense at all.

The more she thought about this, the more panicked she felt.

"Liu Jin, during this period, you are responsible for taking good care of Qing'er, Doudou and Xiaoqian. Don't let them make any mistakes."

Liu Jin nodded heavily, "I understand."

She looked at Uncle Wu again,

"Uncle Wu, please go back and rest. We have a tough battle to fight this time. The first task now is to guard the mountain and prevent these officials from coming up, and then we can slowly think of a solution."

"But the food on this mountain can last for a month at most. If they don't leave, what will we do?"

Uncle Wu's words made Su Muer fall into deep thought, "But right now, we can only focus on defense. The officials of the imperial court all have sophisticated weapons in their hands. Those large knives on Jitou Mountain are simply unable to compete with them.

What's more, there are many of them, so just take it one day at a time and think of a solution slowly."

Hearing what she said, Uncle Wu could only nod helplessly and retreat.

That night, the bandits in Jitou Mountain were busy, and Xiao Mo was not idle either. He sent people to search around in an attempt to find a way into the mountain, but until dawn, all the people who dispersed had their heads hanging down.

came back.

"General, I've looked all over Jitou Mountain and there's no way up there."

"Yes, we have searched both sides, and there were bandits patrolling the mountain at night. It seems they are very alert."

Xiao Mo sat in the tent, holding the armrests of the chair with both hands, his eyebrows solemn,

"In this case, then surround Jitou Mountain, and kill one person who comes down. If you don't believe them, they won't come down from the mountain."

"General, we don't know how much food is stored on this mountain. If we continue to besiege you, I'm afraid it won't be an option."

Hearing the man in the hand say this, Xiao Mo suddenly frowned and looked at him,

"Do you have a better idea?"

The man shook his head hurriedly, "I don't have any."

"That's all we can do. Don't say we can't go up the mountain. Even if we can go up, I, the general, won't go up. I'll besiege them first. When the people on the mountain run out of food, people will naturally come down to find me.

Here's the order, if the head of Jitoushan comes to talk to me, don't stop her, don't hurt her."

Thinking of Su Mu'er, a hint of expectation suddenly appeared in his eyes.

He hadn't seen her for a long time, and this time he used defense as offense, but he also hid his selfish motives. He didn't want to conflict with her head-on, because since that woman took up residence in his heart, he couldn't look down on other women.

It was a pity that she was Ye Shihan's woman. Later he found out that she had given birth to a child for Ye Shihan. Even so, it did not affect his liking for her in his heart.

In this way, officials and bandits were at loggerheads here. Xiao Mo ordered his people to build a camp at the foot of Jitou Mountain and boldly told everyone that he was here to suppress the bandits.

People on Jitou Mountain also always pay attention to what is going on down the mountain and report back to Su Muer at any time.

Time passed day by day, and the bandits on the mountain looked nervous, but the officials at the foot of the mountain were eating and drinking, and living a very happy life.

During this period of time, Su Muer couldn't eat or sleep well. She was not worried about the official officers coming up the mountain. She was worried about the livelihood of the thousands of people on the mountain if the official officers refused to leave.

Uncle Wu kept pacing in the lobby, and his nervousness filled the room.

"Master, I just went to see you. We still have enough food for three days, but the officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain have no intention of leaving. What should I do?"

Su Muer's face was unusually cold. After thinking for a moment, she said:

"Kill and eat the pigs and chickens raised in the backyard."

"That's the basis of our livelihood, and we still count on them to make money."

Seeing Uncle Wu's anxious look, Su Mu'er waved helplessly,

"If living is already a problem, what's the point of thinking about making money? Living is more important than anything else right now. Do as I say, and I'll figure out the rest."

Although Uncle Wu was reluctant to give up, he thought about how long it would take for such a day to come, so he nodded in agreement, turned around and went out to make arrangements.

Doudou timidly came to Su Muer, waving his fists and looking at her,

"Mom, I heard from others that it was my father who brought the officer here. Is this true?"

Su Mu'er raised her eyes and looked at his angry look. She stood up and came to his side. She raised her hand and pinched his chubby face and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Doudou, this matter has not been clarified yet. You should not make random guesses or hide hatred in your heart. You are still young and you don't need to keep too many things in your heart."
