Chapter 94: They are Coming

“Gather our forces and unify them to the outside world.”

“Everyone must obey the orders. If they are too scattered, it will be easy for them to take advantage of them.

This group of people looks like veterans at first glance. They are rich in combat, especially when dealing with refugees like us.

They have a way to deal with them.”

Nan Jingzhi looked at Su Yin, knowing her purpose of coming here.

However, he knew better that they were partly responsible for following them out and leading to the group’s pursuit.

“When they came, they must have been chasing them on horseback. Set up a trap five hundred meters away from the camp.”

“Second, the elderly and children in the team move them into the woods to prevent them from being harmed.”

“Third, move some important things into the woods.”

Old man Zhang couldn’t help but ask, “Why don’t you hide all the things in the woods?”

Nan Jingzhi replied patiently, “If the other party doesn’t see it, the things we brought must be hidden in the woods, and both the children and the things will be in danger.”

“Then they won’t be suspicious if they don’t see them.”

“But they will. The purpose is to make money. It’s dark and they may not find out. Of course, we can’t take this kind of luck and hope that they don’t find out.”

Nan Jingzhi continued, “The fourth step is to use them to become suspicious and set up a trap in the woods. Lay a trap.”

Yang Dashan asked in shock, “You want to use some of the food as bait for the elderly and children?”

“Yes.” Nan Jingzhi nodded, “It’s a good deal to sacrifice some people. Some of them may not be injured, as long as they are properly protected.”

Nan Jingzhi looked at Su Yin, “What do you think?”

Su Yin didn’t say, but looked at the others.

“Do you have any ideas or anything you want to add?”

“What I’m worried about is where the old people and children used to make bait and the food come from?” Yang Dahe said.

The father and son of the Zhang family, who had always been quiet, spoke up, “I have a question.

Since they are targeting us, they must know how many animals we have and how to arrange them.

Should they be kept outside or used as traps? Or keep most of them and use three animals as bait?”

Everyone expressed their thoughts and doubts.

Nan Jingzhi answered each concern one by one.

Slowly, the plan became more and more mature, taking into account everything that should be considered.

“Without further delay, let’s take action.”

Regardless of whether the elderly or children are used as bait, each family assigns people to come out, as do food and other items.

The Zhang family father and son returned to the place where they had been resting, and their family members hurriedly came forward.

“How’s it going?”

The Zhang family and his son briefly explained what they knew about the situation, and their expressions changed drastically when they heard it.

“No, it can’t be.”

“We’re all gone. Will they really chase us out?”

“It’s better to believe that there is something than to believe that there is nothing.

You are right to be prepared. If there is nothing, it would be the best. I’m just afraid…” Old Man Zhang sighed worriedly.

The eldest son of the Zhang family said, “Dad, let’s stop talking and move everything forward.”

After Su Yin and her party returned to their place, Su Baozhu couldn’t help but sigh, “I understand what it means to be happy and sad.”

Fortunately, there is strength in numbers, and Nanjing’s group has high combat effectiveness.

Facing such vicious people, they have a greater chance of winning, which can reduce their pressure.

What’s worrying is that if they hadn’t followed, the group might not have chased them.

“Do you understand?”

Su Baozhu nodded.

Everyone started to take action.

There were a lot of people on the Nanjing side. They arrived five hundred meters away first and laid a rope on the road in advance, just waiting for them to arrive and catch them off guard.

Yang Dachuan and Yang Dahe are good at archery, and when the time comes, they and Nan Jingzhi’s people will be responsible for long-distance attacks.

Several brothers from the Zhang family also joined the team fighting head-on.

As for Su Yin, at the strong request of Butcher Yang and others, she was placed on the bait side.

Also coming with her were Nan Jingzhi, the second son of the Zhang family, and ten other people.

The battle outside was commanded by the burly Han Nanwu.

While they were making preparations in full swing, the closed city gate opened, and a group of people wearing casual clothes and masks, a small group of twenty people on horseback, passed directly through the refugee shacks on both sides and rushed towards the distance.

Behind the twenty-person riding team, a group of people dressed as soldiers appeared, each holding a knife and heading towards the newly arrived refugees.

When they approached, no one woke up; everyone was fast asleep, immersed in dreams.

These people unscrupulously dug out all their baggage without worrying that anyone would wake up.

Occasionally, people who did not drink porridge, or drank little porridge, would be beheaded by the other party before they could make a sound after being awakened.

Big or small, no exceptions.

The team of twenty riders had been running for about half a stick of incense, but there was still no sign of them, which surprised them greatly.

“These rats really escaped far enough.”

“Huh, no matter how far they escape, it’s useless.”

“Speed ​​up and catch up with them.”

Among the new batch of refugees, the fattest ones belonged to those two groups.

Such fat sheep are usually the richest in food.

In the woods, Su Yin squatted aside, slapping the mosquitoes on her arms and legs from time to time.

Nan Jingzhi watched her scratching her head and took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, handing it to her.

Su Yin raised her eyes and glanced at him.

“Anti-mosquito ointment.”

If it were something else, Su Yin would be polite, but she really, really, really needed anti-mosquito ointment.

These mosquitoes were so aggressive that they just caught her and sucked her blood. With her small body, she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to handle them all in one night.

“Thank you.”

Su Yin took the porcelain bottle, moved, and quickly smeared some on her face, arms, and calves.

Just rubbing this on made the mosquitoes disappear.

She returned the bottle, but Nan Jingzhi pushed it back to her.

“You can keep it. I still have more.”

“Thank you so much.” Su Yin was so excited that she wanted to hold the other person’s hand.

This is great stuff!

“Mr. Nan, what’s the name of this ointment? Where can I buy it?”

“If there’s a place to buy it, I will definitely look for it at the next stop.”

“It’s made by my family, not for sale.”

This guy is a child of an aristocratic family, so he didn’t run away.

From a young age, you can get a glimpse of the strength of the family’s heritage.

Without the worries of mosquitoes, Su Yin could concentrate a lot more.

Nan Wu, who was guarding both sides of the official road, moved his ears and blew the sound of crickets in his mouth.

Everyone’s hearts trembled and their nerves became tense.

“Is he here? Why didn’t you see him?”

Zhou Youcai and the eldest son of the Zhang family were lying on both sides of the official road, nervously looking in the direction of Hui’an Mansion.

As soon as he finished speaking, a little light appeared in the dark night.
