"We have only fought the first battle. We are not sure if anyone will come later!"

"Everyone's first kill..." Su Yan didn't say that word in the end, so he could only skip it and continue, "Everyone's mental defense is at its lowest, and they are the most confused and helpless, not knowing what to do."

"Someone must stand up and affirm their behavior, and at the same time offer them some benefits!"

"If morale drops now, we will be truly finished!"

He An understood what she meant, and immediately forced himself to stand up and walked to Uncle He.

Brother He turned around and looked in the direction of the door, then followed He An to his father.

Looking at the people who were dejected and spiritless, He An knew that Su Yan was right.

He only had time to remind Uncle He to "boost morale" and then quickly clapped his hands to everyone, asking them to look at him.

As the situation outside was unclear, he did not dare to speak louder and could only speak at a normal volume:

"After the battle just now, I know everyone is still confused and can't get over it."

"I feel the same way. But what I want to tell you is that now is not a time of peace and prosperity. It is not the time to bring a lawsuit to the government."

"At this moment, it's either you or me. The lives of the victims are important, and our lives are even more important!"

"They may have been innocent before, but we did not do anything wrong. Now they are suffering from unprovoked disaster."

"Now everyone knows that the disaster victims broke into the county and burned, killed and looted everyone. What we just experienced in our mansion is what most families in the entire county are experiencing tonight!"

Uncle He couldn't help but interrupt, "That's right! We want to spare other people's lives, but others won't spare our lives."

The servant recalled the ruthless killing of the victims just now, and in his heart he had to admit that He An and Uncle He were right.

Their sense of guilt immediately dissipated a lot, but their morale was still not very high.

Of course, they were servants, not battle-hardened soldiers.

What they yearn for is a quiet and peaceful life, and they are naturally very disgusted with such fighting and killing.

It's just because of the current situation that I have to do it.

He An also understood this principle, so he began to lure him with benefits as Su Yan said.

Having to fight and kill to save one's life will naturally make people try their best, but if fighting and killing to save one's life can also earn unimaginable benefits for oneself, things will change in an instant.

He An said: "Everyone present today has made contributions to the He family!"

"To everyone present who participated in the battle, I promise here that when peace is restored in the future, the He family can release their family's indentures as long as you wish."

"For those who were injured or even died on the spot, when they are safe in the future, our He family will not only release their family members' indentures, but also give them a sum of money as compensation."

"Even for those who are not injured, our He family will give a sum of money as appropriate! Just as a thank you for your bravery in fighting the enemy today!"

The servants all stared with their eyes wide open and their mouths wide open.

Someone stuttered, "...Fourth Young Master, are you telling the truth?"

He An nodded seriously, "Of course! If you don't believe me, ask my uncle! My uncle is the eldest son of the He family. He will be the leader of the He family in the future. You should believe what he says, right?"

The servants all turned their heads and stared at Uncle He, excitement flashing in their eyes.

Uncle He:......

He looked at He An, then at the servants whose morale suddenly changed, and vaguely understood something.

Pretending that he had this plan in mind, he nodded calmly, "It's true! I would have mentioned this even if An didn't mention it."

"I have seen everyone's heroic performance today, and my He family will definitely repay you in the future!"

The servants hummed with joy, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively, and the dead atmosphere became promising.

Even though they didn't know whether they could survive, they were extremely excited to receive such a promise from the master.

They had been servants for so long that they had long since put their master's orders first.

Previously, the He family was able to take all of their families with them when they left, and they already felt that the He family was an extremely rare and good host.

Now, they are just following orders and doing their job.

The He family actually praised them so much and affirmed their efforts!

Everyone was filled with mixed emotions and overjoyed.

Even something as creepy as moving corpses became less scary.

He An breathed a sigh of relief when he saw everyone so happy.

He looked back at Uncle He and Brother He, nodded at them, and said, "There are some medicines for injuries and bruises at home. I'll take them out and share them with everyone."

"Brother, I see you were injured just now, apply some medicine on yourself later."

Brother He nodded in agreement.

He An turned and went to the master bedroom, dug out a medicine box, took out some medicinal wine, and distributed it to everyone.

At this time, the boundaries between master and servant are no longer so clear.

Everyone sat on the ground and waited for the medicinal wine to be passed over.

When it comes to yourself, sprinkle some on the wound, pour some into the palm of your hand, and then pass it to the next person.

Then he rubbed his palms together, warmed them up, and rubbed the bruised area vigorously to avoid the pain and delay the fight later.

After He An applied the medicine to himself, he leaned against a pillar to rest, but he kept his ears open to the movements outside.

The others were also in a state of high tension.

They killed probably dozens of people, and no one knew if more victims would come to seek revenge.

The wailing and fighting sounds in the distance were still continuous, but He An felt that most of them were quite far away from them and the sounds were no longer clear.

Only a small number of them were nearby, and He An guessed that they might have accidentally lost their way.

After all, there is little oil and water here.

A normal person would definitely not come here first.

The group of people just now might be from the same village or the same tribe who were walking together. One person led the way, and they all went the wrong way and ended up here.

Come to think of it, they might be quite unlucky to run into such a large group of people at once.

If not all the members of the He family were here, they would definitely have to go underground and drink tea with their ancestors today.

But even with such a guess, He An and the others did not dare to let their guard down at all.

More importantly, daybreak is almost here!

The natural concealment provided by the night will soon fade, and they will be faced with even tougher challenges.

They don’t know what the situation in the county is like yet.

How are the county magistrate and the county lieutenant? Have they figured out a way to repel the enemy?

The county magistrate naturally didn't have any. Not only did he not have any, he was even facing internal and external troubles.

He was surrounded.
