Chapter 286 Separately Ambush
As the person with the highest martial arts skills among them, Liu Erhu naturally became their leader. However, after entering the village, he was not familiar with the situation in the village, so he asked Wang Feng.
Wang Feng answered straightforwardly, "We're almost at the village entrance. My suggestion is that we hide the carriage first, and then sneak through in the dark."
Before leaving the village, Wang Feng heard from his master that he and his companions would return, so he had already inquired about the best hiding place.
Now seeing Liu Erhu asking, he led his men directly to the place he had already found.
A quarter of an hour later, the group of eleven people reappeared on the small road beside the village entrance.
Because they were not sure from which direction the enemy would attack, the eleven people were divided into three teams.
The directions that these three teams need to guard are the head of the village, the end of the village and the middle of the village respectively.
For safety reasons, they assigned Liu Erhu to the central section of the village. This way, no matter where the opponent's master started to drug him, he would be able to capture him.
The others are responsible for killing the few who come to finish off the enemy.
In order to prevent the other party from using particularly effective drugs, they also specifically instructed the other party to attack from a distance as much as possible and not to engage in close combat.
Feng Mo asked, "What if they don't enter the village today?"
Liu Erhu: "Even if they don't enter the village, we have to keep guard tonight."
Wang Feng said, "Yes, it would be better if we don't go into the village. Who knows, the prefect's men might arrive tomorrow!"
Liu Erhu rubbed his nose and said, "...not that fast, actually. But I think the second half of tonight will be the critical time for their action, so we must be alert in the second half of the night."
The others responded, "Okay."
In this way, the three teams separated.
Liu Mao, his eldest son Liu Kun and Wang Feng stayed at the end of the village.
If you want to ask why the three of them were guarding the end of the village, I will tell you generously that it was because of Huang Pandi's many instructions before they set out.
If his parents had not been unwilling to leave and did not believe what they said, she would not have begged and instructed her elder brother Liu Mao so much.
"It's still early. You two should find a place to take a nap first. I'll call you when there's something happening." Wang Feng said to Liu Mao and his son.
Liu Kun was a young man after all, so he naturally had more energy than the two elders who were traveling with him. So he suggested, "How about Dad and Uncle Wang go and rest first? I'm young and strong, so I can watch the first half of the night. Besides, there might be a big scene later, and then I'll still have to rely on you two to supervise it, so leave it to me now!"
Wang Feng thought about it and it made sense, so their team took turns on duty.
It was not until the end of the hour of Hai that Wang Feng, who had woken up from a nap, rubbed his eyes and sat up. He looked around and confirmed that there was nothing unusual. Then he gently patted Liu Kun's shoulder, indicating that he could go to sleep.
At this time, Liu Kun was really a little sleepy. Since someone was taking over the shift, he didn't insist on going any further. He turned around and went back to the haystack where Wang Feng had just slept, and fell asleep.
Maybe it was just bad luck, but just as he lay down and felt warm, his father started shaking him and said, "Kun'er, get up, get up quickly, something's wrong."
Liu Kun wanted to sleep a little longer at first, but when he suddenly heard his father say "something happened", he immediately turned over and sat up.
"Dad, what's going on?" He asked his father as soon as he stood up.
Liu Mao didn't waste any time and quickly and briefly explained the situation Wang Feng had just told him. "Your uncle Wang just saw three suspicious men sneaking into the village from the opposite side of us. Now he has gone over to check it out before us. Since you're awake too, let's hurry over there!"
After saying that, he grabbed the crossbow next to him and prepared to leave with a serious face.
Liu Kun, who had just digested what his father said, hurriedly picked up his crossbow and followed his father to the village.
