Yun Yiyi quickly ran to the village chief.

The village chief had just finished his meal and was chatting with three elders.

"Yiyi, why are you here? Sit down quickly, let's talk."

"Uncle village chief, elders, I'm here to remind you. Things are not peaceful outside recently. There are a lot of people coming and going around here."

"So, please remind the villagers to be alert when they go to bed at night. Those who are on night duty should also try to stagger their hours and not sleep."

"It would be troublesome if someone from outside came to steal our house. In the middle of the night, if someone ran away, we would have nowhere to chase him."

The village chief nodded, "Yiyi, what you said makes sense. Don't worry, I will go around the village in a while and let everyone listen to it before going to bed at night."

"Uncle village chief, how about we arrange four people to be on duty at night, so that we can have a replacement. If there really is an outsider sneaking in, we will wake up as soon as the gong is struck."

"Yiyi is right. Let's arrange four people to be on night duty starting tonight." The clan elder nodded in agreement.

"Even if we are sleepy at night, we can't let four of us sleep together." The second elder said in disbelief.

"Then two people in the first half of the night, and two people in the second half. Everyone can sleep."

The three clan elders made the decision immediately.

"Uncle village chief, elders, I'm going to go back to sleep. By the way, you don't have to go to my house. I've already told my parents."

"Okay, Yiyi, good kid, you go back first."

As soon as the patriarch finished speaking, Yun Yiyi ran away.

When Yun Yiyi just fell asleep, the front gate, back gate and side gate of Qingfeng Village were surrounded by people brought by Li Huailiang.

"General, when do we start entering the mountain stronghold?"

"Wait a little longer until the second half of the night, when all the bandits in the village are fast asleep, then we can enter the village."

"By the way, have we arranged our people at the front and back doors?"

"General, don't worry. We have people at the front gate and the back gate tonight. And they have prepared food and wine for the gatekeepers tonight.

"Wait until the second half of the night, and the people guarding the gate will probably be drunk to death. Then, as soon as we give the signal, our people will open the door for us directly."

"That's good. Notify them and let our people take advantage of this time to eat and sleep in shifts."

"I will arrange it now."

"Go ahead, but be careful not to make any loud noise."

Then, Li Huailiang stared closely at Qingfeng Village below.

There were many lights in front of Qingfeng Village near the gate. The bandits were eating and drinking.

In the meeting room of the village, everyone was also discussing matters.

"Second brother, you asked someone to keep an eye on the peddler, how is he doing now?"

"Brother, the peddlers have left one after another in the past few days. Now there are only two peddlers left in Shilin Town. They live in the inn in Shilin Town."

"Oh, left. Are you sure they left?"

"Brother, my men said that in broad daylight, the peddlers carried their loads and headed north to the official road."

"Are you sure it's not coming from the direction of Qingfeng Village?"

"Brother, make sure they are not coming in the direction of Qingfeng Village."

The boss thought about it and still felt something was wrong.

"Aren't there two peddlers? Keep an eye on them and see what they are up to."

"Okay, big brother. I will send someone to Shilin Town to keep an eye on them tomorrow."

"it is good."

"By the way, Third Brother. How is the situation around our village lately? Is anyone coming over?"

"Brother, our brothers found some people coming here to chop wood. However, after asking, we found out that they are from the surrounding villages."

"No one has come to the official road at the foot of our mountain recently. Refugees who want to go south are now staying in Shilin Town."

"Okay, we can't relax. Keep sending people to keep an eye on it. In two days, we will go down the mountain to collect food."

"You and Lao Er must cheer up and let the brothers below work harder. After this busy period, we can relax."

"Got it, big brother."

"Got it, big brother."

"Okay, both of you go down. Oh, and tell those people drinking in front to go to bed early. No one drinks every night."

"I'll go talk to them now, brother."

"Go."

The second and third in command quietly left the meeting room.

"Brother, do you want to go for a drink?"

"Third brother, I'm not going. If you drink, don't drink too late. Be careful or Big Brother will punish you tomorrow."

"I know, brother. It won't be too late."

So the two people separated.

The second in command went to the square in front and told everyone not to drink too late. Then he picked a table and started drinking.

They drank until midnight, when the fire in Qingfeng Village dimmed and the village became quiet.

"General, at the main gate of the stronghold, everyone except our people is drunk to death."

"The same situation exists at the back door of the village."

"Okay, then let's wait another two hours until they are more sound asleep, and then we'll go into the village."

"Give orders. Once you enter the stronghold, don't leave any bandits alive. The bandits have killed people under their control."

"We don't need to capture them alive. Of course, it would be great if we could capture the three leaders of the village alive."

"But it's hard to say. According to our people, the three leaders are all very skilled in martial arts. It would be difficult to capture them alive."

"That's what the general said."

"By the way, how many people were sent from outside Shilin Town?"

"General, we have sent sixty men from outside Shilin Town. They are all soldiers with good skills."

"That's good. Later, you lead your men to enter through the front gate of the stronghold, and I will lead my men to enter through the back gate. As for the men on the side, have them move to the back gate and ambush."

"When the bandits escape through the back door, kill them all."

"As you command, General."

"Okay, go and make the arrangements."

Li Huailiang was a little confused at this moment. Because it was related to the safety of the young master, no one except himself knew that the young master was in Shilin Town.

He arranged for someone to deliver messages to the young master every day, claiming that they were study companions selected for the young master.

In order to conceal his tracks, he deliberately picked three children. While delivering the message to the young prince, he also had someone visit the other two children every day.

The difference is that the other two children only watch and don’t need to pass on the message.

Of course, the troops were sent outside Shilin Town under the pretext of protecting refugees.

In order not to attract other people's attention, he made the arrangements and never asked any more questions.
