The villain is ruthless

Chapter 906 City of Troubled Times ([-])

"Thanks for your hard work, Brother Si, everything will be done according to your instructions." Said on Wednesday,

Si Yan nodded lightly, and his eyes fell on Leader Zhang who was not far away. Leader Zhang looked at Wednesday suspiciously, his brows were slightly frowned, as if there was something he couldn't figure out.

It was night, and a group of people headed towards Lihua Town, and at dawn, they came to a low valley.

Leader Zhang decided to ambush here, intending to make dumplings for all the barbarians. The rest of the people had no objection and began to prepare various traps.

Jiang Zhu counted the quiver on his back. There were more than 50 arrows in it. After using them, they needed to be replenished as soon as possible.

Si Yan hung the quiver on her back on the branch at her feet, "Be careful." Then he went to the slope to make logs with others.

After dawn, everyone found a hidden place to ambush, and when the barbarians stepped into the trap, they would catch them all.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and everyone waited from morning to noon, but they never waited for the enemy.

"Do you think the barbarians will come?" Someone asked in a low voice, not sure.

"It will come. Didn't you negotiate with the barbarians on Wednesday?"

"But why did the barbarian believe him?" The man frowned, and said with difficulty, "The barbarian is not a fool."

"That's because Wednesday was smart and managed to fool the barbarians."

"That's not necessarily the case." The man narrowed his eyes, stared unkindly in the direction of Wednesday, and said maliciously, "I think he might be a traitor sent by the barbarians. He went to the city to inform the news yesterday, and now he is helping the barbarians." With so many people serving Zhou, how can you be sure that he is not a traitor?"

"How can you say that?"

"Okay, okay," the two spoke in a low voice, which quickly attracted the attention of Chief Zhang, "You all know what kind of person Brother Zhou is, and he can't be a barbarian's traitor. Nonsense!"

Seeing this, the two of them lowered their heads one after another, and fell silent.

On Wednesday, his eyes were lowered, and there was no expression on his face.

Until the afternoon, the barbarian never showed up, and more and more people suspected Wednesday, thinking that he had passed the wrong news that made the barbarian vigilant.

Leader Zhang tried his best to resolve the conflict, but he still couldn't stop the dissatisfaction of the crowd.

Suddenly raised his head on Wednesday, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I am not a spy of the barbarians. I have a deep blood feud with the barbarians. It is absolutely impossible for me to serve them. If you don't, you must speculate about me behind my back."

"What do you use to prove it?" One of them stared at Wednesday stubbornly and said, "Everyone here has a deep hatred against barbarians, but you don't know where you come from. Not only can you speak nonsense, but you can also write barbarian characters. , who do you suspect?"

These words are too sharp. After all, Wednesday’s family members have no way of researching, and no one knows how he learned Hu.

"You can say whatever you want, we can't overthrow you."

"Yeah, the grandfather you mentioned is dead."

"Death does not tell, you are a good idea!"

Hearing these words, Wednesday's complexion suddenly turned pale, his eyes stared blankly at every questioning face, and his fingers clenched tightly by his side.

Leader Zhang opened his mouth, as if he wanted to speak for Wednesday, but seeing those sour faces, he couldn't say anything.

Although everyone promised to work together to drive away the barbarians, no matter how the team of hundreds of people is arranged, there will always be different voices.

Chief Zhang tried his best to appease the dissatisfaction of these people, but he was powerless to change their minds.

Wednesday was the first point of contradiction that broke out in the rebel army, and his peculiarity allowed those who cared to take advantage of it.

"Enough." Jiang Zhu couldn't bear it anymore, interrupted those people's questioning, and said in a cold voice: "If you don't believe him, you can leave here immediately, no one wants you to stay."

"What?" Someone opened his eyes wide and looked at Jiang Zhu in disbelief. "We are here to drive away the barbarians. Why do you drive us away? You don't have the right!"

Jiang Zhu: "Wednesday risked his life to enter the city to lure the barbarians, so you have the right to doubt him? I came up with the idea at the beginning. If you think it's wrong, you can doubt me, and you don't have to implicate innocent people."

"This..." Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, they didn't expect her to say such words.

"What does this have to do with Mrs. Si? How dare we blame you?"

"It's because this Wednesday was so weird that we..."

"You don't need to say more," Chief Zhang stood up as a peacemaker, "Right now the most important thing is to fight against the barbarians. If Wednesday is really a traitor, he will be exposed sooner or later. Before that, no one should doubt him anymore."

Leader Zhang's words made many people breathe a sigh of relief, and reluctantly closed their mouths.

Jiang Zhu sneered in his heart. Why was no one stopping him when he brought the parchment into the city on Wednesday?Once things go wrong, these people start to shirk responsibility.

"Thank you, Mrs. Si, for defending me." Walking under the tree where Jiang Zhu was on Wednesday, his brows and eyes were already peaceful.

"I just said what I wanted to say," Jiang Zhu said lightly, "Brother Zhou risked his life to send out the parchment, and this credit cannot be blamed."

Lowering his eyes on Wednesday, he smiled slightly, "I will keep this kindness in my heart on Wednesday." After finishing speaking, he walked over to Chief Zhang.

As the sun set, the surroundings fell into darkness, and everyone looked faintly tired.

They hadn't eaten since the morning, and if this continued, their physical and mental strength would not be able to keep up. After a moment of hesitation, Chief Zhang had to let everyone eat dry food first.

At this moment, the spy in front suddenly shouted: "The barbarians are coming! Everyone get ready!"

Before the words were finished, everyone's hearts tensed up, and they stared ahead like torches, thinking: Finally, it's here.

Those who doubted Wednesday lowered their heads one after another, guilty of not daring to make a sound.

The clatter of horseshoes came from the bottom of the valley, and the dark army was rushing all night.

People with excellent eyesight roughly judged the number of barbarians, and there were about 500 people.

The sheepskin letter handed out on Wednesday not only did not make the barbarians suspicious, but even believed it to be true. Under the leadership of the barbarian general, a large number of people went to Lihua Town.

Seeing the huge crowd, everyone felt as if their blood had been pumped out, and their hearts rose to their throats. After listening to Chief Zhang's order, someone neatly blocked the exit of the valley with a rolling log.

Then, someone opened the trap, and countless barbarians fell into the deep pit. Then, someone released an arrow with a torch, which alarmed hundreds of horses. The young barbarians were trampled to death by wild horses.

At this time, the rolling logs came in handy, and the huge solid logs fell one after another, making it impossible for the barbarians to guard against them.

Although they tried their best to set fire to escape, they were like trapped turtles, with nowhere to go.
