Zhao Fu also had a plan in mind. He did not directly agree to help Xiao Jian's group of people get revenge. Instead, he asked first, "Are you the only ones who escaped?"
"No, sir, we still have more than thirty people who have escaped." When Zhao Fu didn't agree directly, Xiao Jian's heart sank, but he still replied quickly and respectfully.
"How many adult males are there?", Zhao Fu asked again.
"A total of 21 adult males," Xiao Jian also quickly replied.
After listening to Xiao Jian's words, Zhao Fu thought for a moment and said, "I can help you get revenge, but it mainly depends on you. Bring the remaining adult males to my place!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Xiao Jian was overjoyed when he heard that Zhao Fu agreed. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed, then got up and left. After coming here for a while, Xiao Jian brought 21 men with yellow faces and skinny muscles. Looking at this group of people, the village had been breached. It was obvious that he had been having a hard time these days.
At the beginning of Apocalypse World, the population was refreshed from Land of Origin, but the village was gone. Originally, the villagers were only refugees and would not be refreshed from Land of Origin. They had to find the next village on their own.
"Do you want revenge?", Zhao Fu looked at them and asked.
Although these people were sallow and thin, they could not hide their hatred, and they all said in unison, "Think!"
Seeing this, Zhao Fu nodded, turned around and said, "Give each of them an iron sword."
The soldier next to him obeyed the order, took out an iron sword, and handed it to the Xiao Jian group of people. The Xiao Jian group of people understood what this meant, and they must have followed this adult to attack the stronghold and take revenge.
However, they were a little shocked when they saw that the soldiers who were originally wearing armor and well-equipped took off all their equipment and rolled around on the ground a few times. The soldiers who were originally so heroic all turned into refugees. Then they picked up various wooden sticks as if they were weapons, and picked up a few wooden boards as if they were shields.
"Zhang Dahu, you will lead the team this time and everything will go according to plan!", Zhao Fu ordered.
Zhang Dahu obeyed the order, then looked at Xiao Jian and everyone in the circle, let out a burst of laughter, and said, "Let's go!"
Xiao Jian didn't understand why they didn't bring good equipment, but it turned out like this, and there were only 700 people. There were five thousand bandits on the opposite side, and they were easy to defend and difficult to attack. How could they be defeated by a group of people on their own, so I couldn't help but said, "Sir! Are we going to attack the mountain stronghold like this?"
When Zhang Dahu heard what Xiao Jian said, he smiled and was about to explain the plan, but Zhao Fu stopped him, turned to Xiao Jian with a faint smile, "Since you want revenge, then show your courage and anger, and soak your hands with the blood of the enemy. Isn't it the most satisfying thing?"
Hearing this, Xiao Jian felt angry thinking of all the tragic experiences of Hundred Flowers Village. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhao Fu, saying, "If we die, please take care of our remaining old people and women. Your kindness will be repaid in the next life!"
After saying that, Xiao Jian shouted, and led Hundred Flowers Village's remaining twenty or so people to rush towards the mountain stronghold. Zhang Dahu also led seven hundred soldiers up.
On the other side, inside the cottage.
"It's not good, it's not good, the enemy is attacking our stronghold." Suddenly he shouted, alarming everyone.
Three Great Han walked out of the cottage hall. These were the three owners of the cottage. After hearing this, they came to the gate of the cottage with a large number of bandits. At this time, they saw that there were less than 800 people, and they were armed with broken sticks. They actually wanted to attack their cottage, and they sneered with disdain.
"Wang Xiong, Wang Long, Wang Bao, I want you to pay for your lives for Hundred Flowers Village eight hundred villagers!" Xiao Jian rushed to the front, staring at the three Great Han on the wall of the village with his eyes, shouting full of hatred.
The three Great Han looked at Xiao Jian who was leading the charge, and one of them said, "It turns out to be that kid Hundred Flowers Village. He escaped last time. I didn't expect that he brought such refugees from nowhere and wanted to attack our village. But her sister asked her to serve our elder brother, but she refused and committed suicide in the end. What a pity for her."
"The third brother is right, but it's good to have captured a lot of women in Hundred Flowers Village." Another Great Han also laughed and said.
Only the big brother, with a calm face, looked at the charging Xiao Jian group and ordered, "Fire the arrow!"
Arrows flew out one after another, but most of them were blocked by the simple wooden shields that had been prepared. Only a few people were injured occasionally, but some of the group of refugees brought by Xiao Jian on the opposite side fled as if they were afraid.
About five hundred people were left, and they continued to charge. Then another wave of arrows came, and several more people were injured, but some people fled.
The third wave of arrows rained down, and in the end less than two hundred people fled.
The third brother on the wall of the mountain village laughed very much when he saw this and said, "They are really a bunch of rabble, and they escaped after just a few charges."
The second brother also said, "Yes! I don't know what little tricks that kid Hundred Flowers Village must have used to gather so many people. Now that those people saw how powerful our copycat was, they were so scared that they could only run away."
"Hahaha!"
The third brother laughed loudly and said again, "Brother! We must not let this kid go this time. I will take three thousand brothers to hunt them down!"
The elder brother thought about it and nodded, but seemed to feel something was wrong. But then he thought about it, their copycat had indeed offended a lot of people, and there were many enemies coming to the door like this. For the sake of caution, the elder brother turned his head and said, "Third brother, please take four thousand people out, and be careful!"
Hearing this, the third brother smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, brother." Then he opened the gate of the village and four thousand bandits filed out and chased Xiao Jian.
Xiao Jian and his group quickly ran to one side as planned. Before, Xiao Jian thought Zhao Fu was asking them to die, but now they understood after hearing Zhang Dahu's explanation.
On the way, Xiao Jian asked Zhang Dahu, "That adult! What kind of person is he?"
Zhang Dahu thought about it and didn't know how to explain it, and said, "I don't know how to say it. Anyway, His Highness is very good to us, and he is also a very strong person. He always has various tactics to defeat the enemy. In short, His Highness is a very charming person. He has the kind of person who makes people believe that he can create a peaceful place in this troubled world."
"Your Highness?"
Xiao Jian realized in his heart that the young man who looked younger than himself had an extraordinary background.
Zhang Dahu didn't care to spill the beans, because Xiao Jian and this group of people were already helpless, and His Highness would definitely take them in in the end, so he had already treated Xiao Jian as one of his own.
Xiao Jian and his group ran away quickly, and the third brother behind them also chased them aggressively with four thousand bandits. In the end, Zhao Fu successfully led all the bandits into a siege.
