023 The Jinfan Thief Attacks

They rushed back to Wolong Village overnight and saw Zhuge Liang and others pacing back and forth at the village entrance with torches waiting for them.

"Brother, you are back."

Today, Zhuge Tian and Liao Hua just said something and then left together.

As a result, no one came back until dark, and Zhuge Liang was really worried.

"With me, Yuan Jian, here, what do you have to worry about, Kong Ming?" Liao Hua took the water bag from the waist of someone next to him and started drinking it.

I'm worried because of you...

Zhuge Liang ignored him and continued to ask Zhuge Tian: "Brother, did you find anything when you went out?"

"Well, we must have been targeted by the Jinfan thieves."

"Jinfan pirates?" Zhuge Liang frowned. "I heard this group of pirates is very powerful."

"Yeah." Zhuge Tian nodded. "The few people I met today all looked brave, and it sounded like they were quite a number of them."

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said, "If the Jinfan thieves are going to come and plunder, they will definitely take the water route."

These people live in the river all year round, so there is no reason for them to come all the way overland to rob things and then carry the loot back overland.

"They will definitely choose a place that's closest to us and easy to land. There's a small dock in front and behind our Wolong Village..."

Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment and said, "Brother, let's build the dock tomorrow."

"Repairing the dock?"

"Yes, didn't our Wolong Village originally plan to build a dock at the entrance of the village to facilitate the transportation of grain in the future?"

"Now it's just ahead of schedule."

"I understand." Zhuge Tian smiled and said, "There are docks in front and behind Wolong Village. We can't predict where the other party will come from, so why not give them a better option?"

"That's right. The Jinfan thieves don't know that we have discovered their movements. If we have a dock at the entrance of the village, they will definitely go ashore here." Zhuge Liang said.

"Build a dock and set up a secret sentry station to keep an eye on the river and ambush the enemy when they come ashore."

The two of them had no intention of asking Huang Zhong for help.

First of all, I don’t know when the other party will come.

Secondly, asking Huang Zhong for help would inevitably require the use of soldiers from Deng County.

Who knows if there are any spies of the Jinfan thieves in there.

Wolong Village has been undergoing large-scale construction recently, and materials are readily available.

The next morning, they began to build a small pier by the river.

Someone came to ask again during the day, and Zhuge Tian and the others spoke frankly, saying that it was just to make it easier to sell grain in the future.

In just three days, a small dock was built.

"Hmph, the people in Wolong Village really know how to get things done." Gan Ning raised the corner of his mouth when he received the report from his men.

He heard that there were only about 200 people in Wolong Village now. Even though he heard that there were many former bandits in it, he didn't take them seriously at all.

Bandits are just some refugees who can't afford to eat and who have a few broken weapons and dare to call themselves bandits.

"Everyone have a good meal and set off tonight!"

When it got dark, the Jinfan pirates headed towards Wolong Village with more than 20 boats of various sizes.

Zhuge Tian didn't sleep. He was lying on the bed reading a book. It was a novel he brought from the end of the world. Unfortunately, he couldn't see any updates.

I only read it when I'm bored.

"Enemy spotted, enemy spotted."

The intercom suddenly rang.

Zhuge Tian stood up suddenly and went downstairs.

After leaving the courtyard, Zhuge Liang, Liao Hua and others also came out.

"go!"

They had practiced this before, so there was no need to elaborate. The three of them led the people from Wolong Village directly towards the dock in the dark.

As soon as they arrived, they saw many boats appearing on the shore.

Then torches were lit one after another, and the Jinfan thieves seemed not to care about being discovered.

They just felt that since they had arrived here, even if they were discovered by the people in Wolong, they would definitely be able to defeat them.

"Hey, why is there so much hay on the road?"

"Hey, when I came here yesterday, I saw them repairing the dock and asked about it. They said there were too many rocks on the riverbank and it hurt my feet, so they laid some hay to make it more comfortable to walk on."

"Hahaha, this is the first time I've heard that the stones on the riverbank hurt your feet." The Jinfan thieves live in the river all year round, and they all started laughing after hearing this.

There were a lot of leftover materials from the dock construction piled up on both sides of the road, but they didn't care at all.

After everyone got ashore, we headed towards Wolong Village.

Suddenly a whistle sounded, and the wood and other materials piled on the roadside were pushed over. More than a dozen Molotov cocktails that Zhuge Tian had prepared in advance were lit with a lighter and thrown out.

"boom!"

"boom!"

The Molotov cocktail fell to the ground, bursting into flames.

The hay on the ground and the pushed-down wood suddenly caught fire.

The Jinfan thieves didn't expect that there was an ambush here, and they were panicked for a moment.

This was a road specially chosen by Zhuge Liang. There was a not-too-wide ramp leading out of the dock, and now the entire ramp was on fire.

In particular, the short section of road leading back to the dock received special attention, and a lot of Molotov cocktails were thrown there.

"Charge out, just charge out!" Gan Ning shouted, picked up a burning wooden stake that rolled down with his long knife, and led his men to break out to both sides.

Several long spears were thrust out from the roadside, but Gan Ning blocked them with his sword, and then took advantage of the situation to chop them down.

"Dang!"

Liao Hua had been keeping an eye on Gan Ning, the leader inside, and when he saw him trying to break out, he went straight up to him and the two of them slashed at each other with their swords.

It was obvious that Liao Hua's long sword made of modern steel was superior. With just one strike, the tip of the long sword in Gan Ning's hand was cut off.

"Hahaha, Liao Yuanjian from Wolong Village is here to meet you!"

Liao Hua took advantage of the situation and attacked with his sword.

Gan Ning was not willing to be outdone and was about to take it head-on when he suddenly saw something reflecting the fire and coming towards him out of the corner of his eye.

He swung his sword to block, and with a thud, a crossbow arrow fell to the ground.

This was of course a cold arrow from Zhuge Tianfang. He had no idea about martial ethics or non-martial ethics.

Liao Hua seized this opportunity and stabbed him with his knife.

It was too late for Gan Ning to block with his knife, so he could only dodge sideways.

But he was still a step too slow, and Liao Hua cut a gash on his arm.

Zhuge Tian took advantage of the situation and shot crossbow arrows one after another.

Gan Ning saw with his own eyes that a thief with brocade sails next to him was only hit by an arrow in the arm, but immediately fell to the ground.

He knew that the arrow must have been smeared with some strange poison, so he didn't dare to take it head-on.

Zhuge Tian was more than ten meters away from him, raising his hand from time to time, but the crossbow arrow did not always fly out.

Gan Ning had to distract himself to guard against Zhuge Tian's sneak attacks, and was caught off guard by Liao Hua's attack, looking extremely embarrassed.

As for the other Jinfan thieves, they were even worse.

Under Zhuge Liang's training, the people in Wolong Village had only one move in their spear formation, which was straight stabbing.

However, there are requirements on who stabs first and who stabs later, how the person who stabs first should put away the gun and make room, and how the person who stabs later should follow up.

Although their numbers were much smaller than the enemy's, they only had to guard the two sides of the burning slope.

The long spear stabbed out continuously, making it difficult for the Jinfan thieves to defend themselves.

In addition, many people have replaced the tips of their guns with modern steel, which greatly increases their power.

In just a few moments, dozens of people fell to the ground wailing.
