Bai Yan was not polite and took the selected blacksmiths to the blacksmith shop and handed them over to Xiaohe.
The rush-produced caltrops were immediately put on the road.
Bai Yan came to the entrance of the village and made arrangements himself. The soldiers were also very efficient and did things quickly.
"Han Chang, are they in the same group?" Boss Tiger asked while observing.
When the officer came, he was very scared, but the officer did not attack him, which made him feel relieved.
He could also guess that these officers might be in trouble and might not provoke him.
But now, Bai Yan not only infiltrated into the army, but also made those soldiers obey him, which made him frightened.
If they were really part of a group, he would not be able to save his head.
"Boss Tiger, I have never heard of any relationship between the Bai family and the army. They should not be the same group." Han Chang also felt uneasy.
He is now hanging out with bandits, and it is only natural that these soldiers want to kill him.
"What does "should" mean? You have been the boss of the Bai family for so many years, don't you know?" Boss Hu slapped Han Chang on the face.
"Boss Tiger, I'm sure that Bai Yan has nothing to do with the army. My sister is the mistress of the Bai family. If the Bai family has a relationship with the army, it's impossible for her not to know about it." Han Chang covered his face and said confidently.
"This is best. If you tell a lie, I will cut you into pieces." Boss Tiger said angrily.
His situation is getting worse and worse. Now he is angry when he looks at Han Chang and wants to kill Han Chang immediately.
At this moment, Bai Yan and Qing Gong were busy and had no idea at all.
"We will lay a layer every ten meters like this. If we work overnight, we can lay it for about a hundred meters. But Sang Kou is not that stupid, and not everyone will get into the network." Bai Yan looked around and said worriedly.
"As long as they dismount, we can destroy them." The guard said with confidence.
"What if they don't dismount?" Bai Yan asked.
"The roads are blocked. If they don't dismount, do they have any other choice?" the guard snorted coldly.
"Yes, they can walk through the wheat fields and along the river." Bai Yan pointed to the river and said.
There is only one road into the village, but the river is still dozens of meters away from the foot of the mountain.
When some villagers go to work, they will walk along the river for convenience.
It's just that compared to the main road, the river is rugged and rocky, making it difficult to walk. It's even more difficult for the cavalry to walk, but they will choose this road out of desperation.
"Then we will fight them on the river." the guard said.
"What a reckless move." Qing Gong scolded and asked, "Bai Yan, do you have any ideas?"
"Dig a trap in the wheat field and let the soldiers ambush in the wheat field. As long as the sangcos dare to walk into the wheat field, they will never come back." Bai Yan suggested.
Qing Gong smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "Bai Yan, I have thought about this idea of yours, but it cannot be used. The border areas have been fighting for years, and the people are already poor and have difficulty eating. Now is the time to sprout again. Once the wheat fields are destroyed, this
A year's harvest will be lost. Moreover, my military order prohibits the army from damaging farmland and harming the people."
He knew this was the best way, but he couldn't do it. The fields were the foundation of the people. Once they were destroyed, who knows how many people would starve to death.
He runs the army strictly, and even if there is no ban, he will never do anything that damages farmland.
Bai Yan smiled and said: "Why is the Marquis so pedantic? If you lose, will the villagers survive? In my opinion, victory is greater than anything else. Since the Marquis' soldiers can't do it, let the villagers do it.
.”
"But once the fertile farmland is destroyed, how will the people live next?" Qing Gong asked worriedly.
"Of course I will be responsible for what I destroyed. My Bai family is not short of food." Bai Yan said nonchalantly.
With so much silver in the Bai family treasury, will the villagers starve? Not to mention other places, the grain Han Chang has stored in the village is enough to feed the villagers for a year or two.
On the contrary, even if they did not destroy the wheat field, would the wheat field still survive after the Sankou cavalry stepped on it?
Qing Gong looked at Bai Yan's leaving figure and fell into deep thought. Was he really pedantic? There was no son of a businessman who could see clearly.
Soon, Bai Yan led the people into the wheat field to dig holes and lay them out.
No one hesitated, as long as Bai Yan ordered them, they would do it.
With the help of the soldiers, more than a dozen large pits have been dug and sharpened wooden sticks have been buried under the pits.
The whole village was busy, and soon it was evening.
Boss Tiger became more and more anxious. According to the agreement, the silver coins should be sent over, but there was still no movement.
"Boss, that little beast must have lied to us. How about we run away now. After the officers and soldiers leave, we will come back to settle the score with that little beast." A younger brother suggested.
They are bandits, and when they stay with the officers and soldiers, they feel panicked every minute.
Big Tiger slapped him and said, "Can you run away? Do you think these officers and soldiers are just decorations?"
From the moment the officers and soldiers were unaware of the trap right under his nose, he knew he couldn't escape.
If he ran away and leaked the news, wouldn't the arrangements of the officers and soldiers be in vain? He could only wait and wait for the pursuers to arrive before he could take advantage of the chaos and escape.
"But boss, we have nothing to eat anymore, and the brothers are all very hungry." The younger brother covered his face and said aggrievedly.
They had not brought any food with them, but now that the officers and soldiers were watching, it was difficult for them to hunt, and their stomachs were already growling with hunger.
"Go to Bai Yan and ask him to borrow some food." Boss Tiger said angrily.
"Looking for him?" The younger brother couldn't believe his ears.
They are bandits. They came here to kidnap, but now they need to borrow food from the victim?
"If you don't go, you'll be hungry." Boss Tiger said angrily.
He didn't want to, but he couldn't help it. When the bandits reached this stage, they were really frustrated to death.
The younger brother had no choice but to go to Bai Yan to borrow food.
"Borrow food? How about this? I'll cook the food for you and deliver it myself." Bai Yan said with a smile.
"Master Bai, have you agreed?" The younger brother was shocked again.
Is this okay? He was almost moved by Bai Yan's behavior.
"Why don't you agree? After all, I am so kind. Besides, I don't need you to pay back, as long as you do something for me," Bai Yan said.
"Master Bai, please give me your orders."
"My people haven't come back yet. I'm worried that there will be problems on the road. Please go and greet me. That's your money too, so it's just right for you to go. And by the way, you can go to the village next door to rob." Bai Yan
said.
Hearing this, my little brother almost cried.
"Master Bai, we don't rob people, we are good bandits."
Was he worried about living too long when he robbed in front of officers and soldiers? Even if he had ten more courages, he wouldn't dare.
"Go back and tell your boss that this is robbery under orders." Qing Gong said angrily.
