Chapter 149: Land
Four men were drawn from Xuan Yi's men and four from Shi Liang's men respectively, forming a team of eight, for a total of three teams.
Except for the people who were on guard around the village, the remaining five people fell behind.
"Xuan Yi, lead a team of troops to encircle the stronghold from the rear! No mistakes are allowed!"
"Yes, master! I will definitely fulfill my mission!" Xuan Yi bowed in agreement.
Then, Wen Shu turned to look at Jue Yu beside her and ordered: "Jue Yu, lead a team to attack from the left side of the stronghold."
Jue Yu said in a clear voice: "I obey your orders! I will definitely live up to your trust!"
Then, Wen Shu turned her gaze to Shi Liang and said, "Shi Liang, lead a team and surround them from the right."
"Yes, sir!" Shi Liang accepted the order.
Just as everyone was rubbing their hands, eager to try, and waiting for the order to set off, Wen Shu suddenly raised her hand to signal everyone to be patient.
She slowly walked in front of the crowd and glanced at the three teams that had just been reorganized.
Wen Shu coughed twice, cleared her throat, and said, "Everyone, I am Wen Shu, the head of the Du family.
Today, Xuanyi has chosen you to carry out this mission, not only because we trust that you are brave, loyal, and courageous.
Since you have this kind of heart, I believe you are not the kind of people who are willing to succumb to fate. This world has created our previous destiny.
But our future is in our own hands. As long as you are willing to follow me, if I have a bite to eat, you will have a bite to eat too."
Don't worry,
"The Patriarch is Wise"
……
Xuan Yi's men were initially getting used to their new companions, but when Wen Shu called out to them, they were startled and the woman in front of them instantly grew taller.
I completely agree with what Wenshu just said.
I don’t know who in the crowd mustered up the courage to say, “Yes, girl.”
I follow this girl, hoping to serve her and achieve something with my own abilities one day!"
"Okay, I'm glad you have this intention." After saying that, Wen Shu swept her eyes across another group of people.
Their mood became a little off when they heard those 'restless' words from Xuan Yi's subordinates.
“Of course, warriors from our Dujiatun, you have lived in the camp for so many years, you are the soldiers of my Du family.
It is also the spear of my Du family, and will be the most confident weapon of my Du family when facing the enemy in the future.
As the head of the Du family, I cannot allow our Du family to be completely devoured by others.
You also heard a few days ago that someone was targeting us not far from our village. If we had reacted a little slower last time, I don’t know if you would be able to see me as the clan leader now.
Maybe the entire Du family has been slaughtered by someone, becoming nutrients for others to grow stronger."
As Wen Shu spoke, the group of people felt more and more depressed. They knew that the Du family was supporting them, but their home was robbed right next to the Du family's most important gathering place.
They are ashamed...
They had also heard about Kang Wu's affairs. The reason why Shi Liang was able to take them on this mission was not only because of their good skills, but also because they were absolutely loyal to the Du family.
Wen Shu continued, "But God will not destroy our Du family, and will not kill our Du family members, which makes our Du family stronger.
When they started to raise their butcher knives and prepare to attack my Du family, they should have expected that my Du family would strike back one day.
"Are you ready? From now on, starting from when you become the head of the Du family, are you willing to follow me step by step and walk out of this mountain?
"Walk out of the mountains and rivers that bear the seal of my Du family?"
Wen Shu's voice was not loud, but every word she uttered was like raindrops, dripping into the hearts of the Du family members present.
They also knew that they were almost wiped out without any warning. As a subordinate, if Kang Wu really succeeded.
Their death came earlier than that of the Du family.
Listening to Wen Shu's words, the Du family soldiers present were unintentionally excited.
"We swear to be loyal to the Du family until death, and follow the clan leader"
After saying that, a group of people knelt down.
"Alright, everyone, get up. You all have different martial arts methods and styles. But our purpose for this trip is the same.
This operation cannot afford to fail, and since both of you have your own strengths, I hope you will cooperate well.
This was my first time leading you on an operation and it was completed successfully.
Do you have faith?
“Have faith”
"Don't worry, Chief. I won't back down even if it means risking my life."
"Yeah! If this holds us back, won't we be embarrassed when we go back?"
Looking at the people Shi Liang brought out, they were arguing back and forth, refusing to show weakness in their words.
Although Xuan Yi's men had no expression on their faces, they exuded a fierce aura.
.........
Wen Shu estimated the time. Although it wouldn't take long to get to this place, it would take quite a while for Xuan Yi to go over from behind and outflank them.
But compared to the left and right sides and the front of the village, Xuanyi's most important thing is to close that opening.
Don't let the people inside out.
"You take your men and go ahead. Remember, no matter what happens in the village, do not take any action. Just stay and guard the hole. Don't let anyone escape."
"Master, rest assured, Xuan will definitely fulfill your mission."
"Yes, master." After saying that, Xuan Yi and a group of people disappeared into the night.
Xuanyi's understanding of the map was the most comprehensive and thorough among them, and he had even conducted on-site surveys, so Wenshu handed the task over to him.
"Everyone, start moving now. Follow the route you've drawn up and surround them.
There's no need for time, let alone signals." Wen Shu pointed to the map on the ground and marked the routes of Jue Yu and Shi Liang respectively.
Shi Liang suddenly said at this time, "Chief, if we are suddenly discovered and the people in the village break out in one direction, what should we do?"
Shi Liang's worries are not unreasonable. When a desperate criminal is in a trapped situation, his fate is often unpredictable.
"We decided to first adopt a strategy of encirclement and then gradually implement a siege."
However, it needs to be made clear that killing was her absolute intention!
If the people here could be willingly driven and used by her, wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?
She brought people to destroy this place because of Kang Wu's previous collusion.
Secondly, the terrain here is special. It can connect to the Du family in their valley, and just a few dozen miles outside, it is the official road.
This is the only relatively close and convenient route. How could she not be tempted? This is also the most important purpose of her trip.
"Let's go!" Uncle Wen waved his hand and set off towards Wangshe Mountain Stronghold with a few people behind him.
Jue Yu and Shi Liang led two teams to encircle the village separately... The entire Snake Village was surrounded without any warning while they were sleeping.
