Xu Chu nodded heavily and immediately comforted him.
"With all of you young men gone, there will really be no young people left in Xujiazhuang."
An old man sighed, his face showing sadness and reluctance.
"Don't worry, Uncle. We will grow up soon."
Xiao Niuzi smiled brightly and comforted the old man.
Hearing this, the old man couldn't help but look around. Dozens of children were playing in the fields, and a kind smile suddenly appeared on his face.
However, at this moment, he suddenly saw smoke and dust rising in the distance, and could faintly hear the rumbling sound of footsteps.
"No... not good."
The old man spoke with a stutter, pointing his finger into the distance.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately looked in the direction of the sound, and saw thousands of troops rushing towards them in the dust.
"Quick, run!"
"Hurry back to the village."
"Everyone, run!"
"It's a thief!"
Many women and elders screamed and reminded the children to run away.
"Little Bull, run!"
"Iron boy, run, run back to the village."
"Aong, hurry up and leave."
Xu Chu shouted, and gently pushed the children and old men away with his arms.
"No, we are not very agile and can't run fast. Zhongkang, you take the young people with you."
"We are old and weak, and we can't be a burden to you."
"Enough of life, we have lived enough left and right."
The elderly men, holding crutches, actually rushed towards the bandits who were getting closer and closer.
"Aweng!"
Xu Chu looked at dozens of elderly and frail elders, tears welling up in his eyes.
"go!"
"Come on!"
An old man shouted loudly and threw his crutch towards Xu Chu.
"Walk!!"
"Everyone, hurry up and leave."
Xu Chu wiped away his tears, picked up the children with a dozen young men, and led the women back towards the village.
Getting closer and closer, thousands of elite soldiers surged towards them.
Hundreds of cavalrymen rushed to the front, and a general holding a long spear and a short blade at his waist led the army to charge.
"A bunch of old men, killed."
Zhang Kai stabbed an old man in the chest with a spear, and his horse trampled over the corpses without stopping.
After hundreds of cavalrymen passed by, only their unrecognizable corpses remained of the dozen or so old men.
"Attack this village."
"After the attack is broken, indulge in looting for a day!"
Zhang Kai pointed at the fleeing crowd ahead and the vaguely visible manor.
"kill!"
When the cavalrymen heard Zhang Kai's order, their eyes suddenly turned red.
Indulge in plundering, this is the best reward for them.
As long as they broke into the manor, they could not only rob the property, but also rape the women in the manor.
"Run!"
"Run!"
"It's almost there."
Xu Chu held Xiao Niuzi in his arms and shouted loudly to the people around him.
"Don't panic, Zhongkang. My foolish brother is here."
"Brothers, hurry up and help the women and children get into the village."
At this time, Xu Ding, who heard the noise, rushed out with more than 2,000 strong men armed with swords and guns.
"Brother, the elders are all dead."
"what!!!"
Xu Chu shouted loudly with tears in his eyes.
Xujiazhuang is said to be a village, but in fact it is a small military fortress with deep trenches and high fortifications.
There were constant banditry in Yuzhou, and thousands of families with the surname Xu in Xujiazhuang banded together for warmth, building a defensive fortress that could be held.
There have been bandits who have attacked over the years, but Xujiabao has amazing defenses.
There are many tall wooden buildings in the ravines, deer horns and even inside the fort.
When there were enemies, the young and strong men of Xujiabao climbed up the wooden building, shot arrows with bows, threw stones, etc.
Zhang Kai stared intently at the fortress not far ahead, shouting in uncontrollable rage, "Shoot! Shoot arrows into the fortress! Leave no one alive!"
"promise!"
Following this roar, a low-ranking officer beside him quickly bowed in response.
"Brothers, shoot!"
In an instant, the sound of a vibrating bowstring was heard.
shhhhh--
More than a thousand arrows flew towards the fortress like raindrops.
At the same time, Xu Chu, who was inside the fortress, was standing steadily on a tall building.
Xu Chu gripped the bow tightly, and arrows flew past his feet.
"Shoot me hard and avenge the old men!"
Xu Chu roared, then exerted force with his arms, instantly pulling the bow in his hand into a full moon shape.
