Chapter 5: Taking chestnuts from fire and pulling teeth from tiger's mouth

The high-ranking official in the Qilin suit was Qin Chuan.

His method is very simple and effective. Zhu Youjian killed Wei Zhongxian, which was well known in the Ming Dynasty. As long as he showed off the golden sign of the Jinyiwei and put the high hat of Wei Niyu, no one would be afraid.

Especially those who are well-off, such as Meng Guiming, are most afraid of being detained by the officers and soldiers, and they will destroy the nine clans and confiscate the property. There is no precedent before.

After shouting "The Northern Town Fushi was ordered to investigate the Wei Nijuan Party", even the guards on the gatehouse did not dare to move.

The bodies of Wei Niyu Party who were hacked to death came to life in blood. With other Wei Niyu Party who broke free from the ropes, they took off their colorful clothes while following the Jinyiwei to the door stairs and successfully took over the fortress.

Instead of killing people, they drove the guards down the gatehouse.

Meng Guiming was in panic and was invited to the second floor room.

He had heard of vendors pretending to be bandits, but he had never heard of anyone who dared to pretend to be Jinyiwei to rob.

This is simply unheard of, and I have never seen it. The reason why I am unlucky is that I never thought that someone would be so bold and could come up with such a clever way.

This group of people is not like bandits, and bandits are not that powerful.

Qin Chuan took off the rough sewn Qilin suit, sat opposite Meng Guiming with a big golden sword, and bowed with a smile: "Master Meng Zhuang, you have offended me."

"Don't dare, don't dare." Meng Guiming hurriedly bowed back.

"Master Meng Zhuang, we brothers were originally honest farmers, but they were forced to go up the mountain by the thieves from Huangcong Mountain, forcing the people to be thieves, and were forced to attack the gatehouse of Mengjiazhuang, which scared Master Meng Zhuang."

"Hey, please be polite."

Meng Guiming didn't know what to say, so he had to say a few perfunctory words. He could see clearly that the other party's official uniform was painted, and even the buckles on the armor were drawn, which was even lifelike and very realistic.

Qin Chuan smiled again and said, "Prince Meng Zhuang, please rest assured. Brothers are all people who are clearly distinguished between good and evil. It is helpless to be threatened by the thief. But now that you have left the leader of the thief, you will never help the evil. On the contrary, brothers and brothers will also help Master Meng Zhuang defend this farm."

"ah?"

Meng Gui was stunned.

"Master Meng Zhuang, there are about 1,200 thieves outside now, half of whom are from Bashanhu in Huangcongshan, and the other half are from Linxian bandits. Neither of these two gangs are good things.Master Meng Zhuang should know what the ending will be if he is attacked by the other party."

Meng Guiming's face turned pale when he heard this. He thought that the people from Huangcongshan came outside, and he knew that the village was only about five or six hundred people who could hold the knife. There were 400 townsmen in her village who could protect the courtyard, so he could completely defend the village. Even if he fell into the hands of the thief, he would at most ask for some money and food, and he would retreat after getting it.

However, if hundreds of bandits are added, the other party's purpose is not as simple as a little money and food.

The other party's attitude is to completely capture Zhuangzi and rob the whole thing.

And he is a member of the Meng family...

He had heard of the acts of bandits. A gentry like him would be killed if he surrendered, and if he did not surrender, he would be slaughtered.

Thinking of this, Meng Guiming's whole body trembled involuntarily.

Qin Chuan, who was beside him, smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"Master Meng, please rest assured. The purpose of our brothers is to join forces with Master Meng to resist the powerful enemy."

Meng Guiming knelt down with a thud: "Hero save me..."

"If you can't do it, you can't do it. Please get up quickly by Master Meng."

Qin Chuan hurriedly helped him up.

"Meng Zhuang Master, the most urgent task now is to immediately summon all the people who can fight in the village, guard against the enemy's death, and keep the bandits out."

"Thank you for your help, the hero is very kind. The little old man will never forget you. The little old man will arrange defense now."

Meng Guiming gave Qin Chuan a big gift with gratitude and turned around and was about to go out.

However, Luo Daniu's burly body was firmly at the door, without any intention of getting out of the way.

Qin Chuan's faint voice came from behind: "Master Meng, it's dangerous downstairs. You'd better stay here obediently, you don't have to go anywhere. As for the arrangement of defense... You are so old, just let your children and grandchildren do it."

"ah?"

Meng Guiming's face froze.

He realized that the group of people who wanted to help him guard Zhuangzi seemed to have no good intentions.

"Master Meng Zhuang, come and sit here and plan here to win a thousand miles."

Meng Guiming squeezed a smile that was even worse than crying, and sat down honestly.

Qin Chuan began to assign tasks to him.

That's right, he has now become Qin Chuan's man.

The Meng family had already found something was wrong. Their own master was banished by a group of people who claimed to be Jinyiwei and used a knife to mount the gatehouse, and all the guards above were driven down.

Obviously, that group of people were not Jinyiwei, but a sinister and cunning thief.

But when the Meng family gathered people and surrounded the gatehouse, Meng Guiming appeared at the stairs on the second floor, repeatedly emphasizing that the person upstairs was not the thief, but the heroes who came to help the Meng family guard the village. He severely scolded the people gathered downstairs and scolded them for being in a big way, and was not ready for a moment.

After Meng Guiming cursed all the time, he began to arrange defense tasks.

He asked someone to tear down several houses, piled some of the bricks, tiles and wood next to the door opening, and brought several bundles of firewood. If the door could not be kept, he would use these bricks to block the door opening.

Another part of the bricks, tiles and wood are piled at the foot of the stairs of the gatehouse. When the stones on the upstairs are used up, they use these bricks and tiles as stones.

All the people in the Meng family who can use the knife must go to the defense line and guard the courtyard wall and the tower at both ends, and never allow thieves to step in.

As for the gatehouse... it is handed over to those heroes who come to support them.

The people of the Meng family knew that the master had been held hostage by the thieves, but now the enemy is facing a great enemy, so they cannot tolerate them thinking too much, so they have to do as they are told.

The Mengjiazhuang was full of chaos, women and children cried and shouted, and swords, guns, sticks and sticks were intertwined.

While the Meng family was busy preparing for defense, the old bandits in Jiujishan were not idle, and began to apply medicine to the four bird guns and four three-eyed guns in the house.

There were firearms in Jiujishan Village, and the old bandits had long used their skilled hands, including two of them who used bird guns.

Qin Chuan went up to the top of the gatehouse, stood behind the wall, and looked towards the east.

Bashanhu, Li Biaofeng and Tongtianzhu, come soon.

The reason why he helped Meng Guiming stay in the village was not to save the Meng family, but to pull out his teeth from the tiger's mouth and pick up chestnuts from the fire.

It can also be said that he will sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. After the Bashanhu fights with the Meng family, he will come out to get benefits.

Bashanhu and Li Biaofeng have a total of 1,200 people, and the Meng family has 400 people. Relying on the high walls and deep courtyards, and with the help of the old bandits in Jiujishan, they will definitely tear a piece of meat from the other party.

He led the old bandits in Jiuji Mountain to guard the gatehouse. Even if Zhuangzi fell and the Bashan Hu people rushed in, they would not do anything to him for a while.

This four-meter-high gatehouse with a total of three floors only has one staircase. As long as you guard the staircase and beware of fire attacks on the opponent, four or five hundred people will not be able to hit you.

What's more, with the urinary nature of those bandits and bandits, they will only be busy plundering money and food to ruin women after breaking the countryside. Who would have the same thirty people?

Although his risk of taking the chestnut from this move is high, it is not impossible to succeed.

If things come true, what he wants is not just money and food.

What he wanted was this easy-to-defense and difficult-to-attack farm, as well as all the land of the Meng family.
