After walking to Zhao Jin's side, Zhou Xuezhi leaned over and whispered, "Master Jin Jin, there must be a secret passage in a house like the He family. Let's arrange someone to search first."

“Where is the secret passage leading to?”

"I don't know, according to the usual rules, it must lead to the secluded and deserted place around it. This is what He Weiyuan used to escape."

Zhao Jin pondered for a while and called out Liu Yong to whisper a few words. He only arranged for Liu Yong to search with Zhou Xuezhi alone. This retreat was not very useful to more than 600 people in the courtyard, but letting everyone know about this retreat will shake their confidence in fighting to the death, so it is good to keep it confidential for the time being.

After a while, Liu Yong quickly ran over and whispered, "Just under He Weiyuan's bed, there is a secret passage for one person to enter and exit. Zhou Xuezhi and I both left the house, and there is no one there now."

"Arrang Zhou Xuezhi to other barracks, you can go down and see where this secret passage leads to." Zhao Jin said expressionlessly. It is only for one person to enter and exit, which has no meaning for the movement of the large group of people.

The yard was quiet again next. Zhao Jin did not go upstairs, but just waited below. Everything was arranged almost the same now, and he could only accumulate energy and wait for what should come.

Not long after, Liu Yong ran over again. The tunnel led to the other end of Hejiazhuang, but the exit was in the woodshed of a certain family. Liu Yong led people through the entire Hejiazhuang. He clearly remembered that there was no one in that family. He said that the owner was in another place and only came back once occasionally. He never thought it was a point arranged by He Weiyuan. He found about fifty taels of gold at the entrance of the tunnel, and two sets of clothes and a knife. It seemed that this was He Weiyuan's preparation for the end of his life. He never thought it was useless.

Zhao Jin just nodded, and Liu Yong did not get too entangled in this. Although his current responsibility is to be responsible for internal affairs, he has already put on his armor and held weapons.

The yard was quiet again, and the horse team outside was not completely idle. Often more than a dozen people were on horseback and rushed towards this side. The archers in the yard immediately came to the stage to deal with it. The dozen knights there went around in a circle and then turned back. Moreover, they not only came from one direction, but also circled around the entire large yard. As soon as they touched the range of the bow and arrow, they rushed to turn around.

"This makes us restless. The person who led the opponent underestimates the enemy at first, but now he looks like a mature character." Zhao Jin commented in a deep voice.

No one knew that Zhao Jin was also very nervous now. He couldn't help but wipe off the sweat from his palms. This feeling was very bad. The other party chose the battlefield, and then he had no way to avoid it. He could only face it. No matter what the situation or the balance of strength, he had no initiative.

But such emotions cannot be expressed. Zhao Jin calmly commented in order to give his partners and subordinates a calm impression. However, when he glanced around, Zhao Jin found that except for his partners and the old cavalry calm, the servants were all nervous, but they were not so panic.

Zhao Jin smiled bitterly. There was no way. If he could survive today, the servants would be completely different after the bloody tempering. However, if he was trapped in the mansion, the opponent would have superior troops to attack. If he wanted to not trap, he would probably be defeated by the horse team as soon as he went out.

He forced himself to calm down and looked left and right, but found that Yan Hei-faced was on the side of the news. Everyone in the courtyard was nervous or pretending to be calm. Only Yan Hei-faced looked really careless, holding a goose-feather knife in his hand, looking around, looking around, looking leisurely.

Zhao Jin waved his hand to greet him, Yan Hei-faced hurriedly walked over, and halfway through, he handed the Yan Lingdao to someone beside him, and then he came closer to come and greet him.

"You don't have to be polite, Lao Yan, you have the courage to fight you next."

"Jin is joking, what's the point of being afraid of? When a young man entered this industry, he just put his head on his waist. He knew that sooner or later, he just didn't expect the scene to be so big." Yan Hei-shou said with a smile when he heard Zhao Jin's question.

Zhao Jin nodded and said slowly, "You are so open-minded. Don't worry, even if we can't beat you here, there will be someone to take care of your wife and children."

Listening to Zhao Jin's kindness, Yan Hei's face relaxed a lot, and he still smiled and said, "When I was sixteen years old, I was still a monk who worked hard in the temple. That year, the temple expanded outward and got angry with the neighboring village. The villain carried a hoe and knocked over four men. Only then did he have the opportunity to return the customs and lived a good life of wine, meat and face for more than 20 years."

As he spoke, Yan Hei-faced smile disappeared. Under the lights, his face felt a little sad. He continued, "Don't have my head on my belt for so many years. I also knew that sooner or later there would be one day, but I didn't expect that it would be with Yunshan Temple and still worried about the two of them."

Yan Hei-bian said a few words openly, but his voice was still low in the end. Zhao Jin smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't think so much, who said we will definitely lose?"

"It's worth it, it's worth it. It's worth it to be able to see someone like Jin Ye, and to see what Mr. Jin has done in the past six months." Yan Hei-bang did not accept Zhao Jin's words, but sighed a few words.

Such a situation and such a power comparison make it easy to judge the result. Zhao Jin was silent for a while, patted his forehead behind him, and said with a smile: "The busier you get, the more chaotic you are. Do you know the details of the monk soldiers in Yunshan Temple? How about the equipment? How about the training?"

From knowing that the enemy is coming to fight against the horse team, Zhao Jin has been completely tense and has only begun to think carefully until now.

"I thought Master Jin had known for a long time. There were about a thousand monks in Yunshan Temple. These people were not all in Yunshan Temple, but were divided into various places, one prefecture, four counties, four lower courts, and more than twenty farms. They were guarded by these monks, and then they were rotated regularly. They also had to train in the temple | The people who trained monks were said to be from officers and soldiers. In the past, there was a thousand general, and the general manager had the title of the general, but the general manager led the team to Ru Nan and Ru Ning."

Yan Hei-face's introduction was interrupted by the sound of gongs on the building. The sound of gongs suddenly rang, and everyone in the courtyard was startled. This was suddenly a reason. The sound of gongs was beaten too quickly and too hard, as if they were about to penetrate the gongs.

Some people were even frightened and screamed, with weapons falling to the ground. In fact, the entire farm was alarmed, and the animals were neighing one after another in the mule and horse market on the other side.

Zhao Jin stood up suddenly and walked quickly towards the building. While climbing up, he heard cheers sounding at the place where the horse team in the east were parked.

"Don't beat it" the gongs continued, and Zhao Jin couldn't help but shout.

I never thought that Yan Qianli in the building hadn't heard it at all. She was still knocking there and her body was trembling. Zhao Jin yelled again. Yan Qianli only heard it. When he loosened his hand, he fell directly on the floor of the building.

"Jin the master and come to the master" Yan Qianli's voice had changed his tone, and he had said for a long time but couldn't say a complete sentence.

Needless to say, Zhao Jin had already seen the scene in the east. A fire snake winded in the distance. It was a queue of many people holding torches. How many people were there? Is it eight hundred or more?

Although Zhao Jin knew that a little bit of the distance would make the queue look huge, the team that looked like a fire snake in the distance still made him tremble. Eight hundred and thousands were not just a number at this time, but the power of advantage.

The "Fire Snake" is getting closer and closer, and can be described as a "Fire Dragon". How many people are there? I'm afraid there are more than 800 people. Zhao Jin took a deep breath and turned around, but he did not walk down the stairs.

"Everyone comes here, everyone comes here. Zhao has something to say, hurry up, Zhao Jin said condescendingly.

The people in the yard were already impatient by the sound of the gong. When they heard Zhao Jin's greeting, they calmed down and immediately gathered.

Some of the teams were neat and some were a little messy. Everyone looked up at Zhao Jin looking up at the building. Under the lights in the yard, all the young faces were a little nervous, and even their own friends were the same. It was not surprising to think about it. Suddenly encountering someone would be inspired to be brave, but they often think a lot while waiting.

"Brothers, the enemy is coming," Zhao Jin shouted loudly from the looking building.

Many people trembled because of this sentence, and there were already many people who were panicked. Zhao Jin took a deep breath and shouted again: "Zhao tells everyone that there are more enemies than us, and the enemies are stronger than us."

When these words were said, most of the nervous expressions below turned into panic. The old cavalrymen next to them didn't care whether Zhao Jin could see them or not, and tried their best to wink at the top to make gestures. What they wanted to say Zhao Jin knew in his heart that it was nothing more than not to shake the morale of the army at this time.

Even if not, will the people below boost morale when they hear the cheers outside? Zhao Jin continued to shout: "As soon as his horse team comes, we cannot leave the courtyard too far, otherwise if we are rushed to the ground by the horse team, it will be the end of driving sheep and killing pigs. But if we don't leave, now that the brigade of monks is coming, we will fight hard too."

The yard was silent, and the sound of horse hooves outside began to sound. You could hear someone shouting, "Someone ran away in the village" and "If you are not the thief, don't worry." Seeing such a big fanfare appear, the people in the village no longer dared to stay there. Not to mention the battle later, maybe they have to wash the village. Let's run first. Now there is still a chance to run. I'm afraid I won't be able to leave after running.

"I know someone thinks so. It's the business of Zhao Jin and his brothers. It's definitely okay if we run away. Maybe we can go to the other party's side, but I tell you, this is impossible."

As soon as the words came, many people below trembled, obviously looking at the central thing.

"So many people are fighting and fighting in such a place close to the city's government. If it is spread, it is a big crime. It is a crime of beheading the head and destroying the family. What should I do if I don't spread it? That is to kill all the people and silence all the enemies."

Someone below turned pale. The old cavalry looked at each other, and they had wry smiles and helplessness on their faces. They simply ignored it and instead checked the bows and arrows.

"I also want to tell you that it is not a dead end now, we still have a way out."

"What's the way to live?" Zhao Jin kept it in a silence, and someone below couldn't help asking.

"Fight with them, fight with them, we will survive if we win." Zhao Jin finished speaking vigorously, and there was a quietness below. Most people had doubts on their faces. Fight, if there are few people and more people, can we win?

"We have six brothers, and we have fought against more than 100 deadly thieves, but we have killed them all. Now we have six hundred people and only more than 1,000 enemies. What are we afraid of? This is not enough for us to kill."

There was a burst of laughter below. When everyone thought of Zhao Jin's invincible courage, they immediately felt a little confident. The laughter made everyone less nervous.

"Fight with them and fight with them. Do you have the courage?" Zhao Jin asked yelled.

I had already heard the noise outside the wall. Although the sound was not loud, I could still hear that it was the noise that only hundreds or thousands of people could move together. Now Hejiazhuang is quiet around, and the sound floats into the wall without any obstacles. Zhao Ziying, who was a little turbulent, was silent again, and his relaxed mood just now regained his feelings.

If you say a thousand words, there are thousands of people outside, there are loud horses and monk soldiers. How can you beat them?

Zhao Jin could also see that the mood below was wrong. He winked at Liu Yong, who was close to him, and then shouted to him: "If you don't fight, you will die. If you fight, you will have the chance to live. Do you have the courage?"

According to his idea, Liu Yong followed suit and said that at least he could lift the atmosphere, but his brothers responded, and the effect was a little worse. After he shouted out, Liu Yong looked at Zhao Jin and looked back. He didn't react for a while, and it was about to be in a state of dismay.

"The guys on the ground in Xuzhou are not cowardly. They fight hard, follow Master Jin and fight with them."

At this moment, the team shouted, and the scene was quiet at first. Who knew how to help? Zhao Jin hurriedly looked over. There were lights and he saw the target directly in the direction of the sound.

Unexpectedly, it was an acquaintance, the fat Li Can, who was a little silly and yelled with a flushed face there. The relative of the mother, the He family, looked a little dumb and didn't expect that she would have such a reaction.

At first, it was a man shouting, but later there were scattered people around him. In the end, everyone was shouting. What Zhao Jin said was not so passionate and inspiring, but what he said was the truth. You can figure it out when you think about it. At this time, the only way out is to fight. One person shouted, two people shouted, and everyone's bloodiness was gradually aroused, and everyone shouted, and no one was willing to be a cowardly soft boy.

Zhao Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If no one was making this introduction, everyone's fighting spirit and courage would not be stimulated. When the fight started, the effect would probably be much worse.

"Everyone takes their place and listens to my orders," Zhao Jin shouted again.

After shouting, the teams below were starting to shout orders. Regardless of the new recruits and veterans, all the servants of the recruits and veterans, were all obeyed the orders. The panic and at a loss just now had faded a lot and turned into peace.

The people on the wooden platform behind the wall were holding their breath and looking at the open space to the east. A large group of people holding torches had already driven in.

"This has taken thousands of people," someone murmured.

Zhao Jin didn't hear this, so he went up to the looking building again and carefully counted the number of people outside. The newly arrived team almost had a torch, which made the outside clear and neat formation. Because of this, it was relatively easy to count.

"There are at least one thousand and one hundred people." Zhao Jin went down from the looking building and whispered to his friends.

Shi Manqiang let out a sigh, Ji Xiang muttered and cursed in a low voice, Chen Huang and Liu Yong were calm, Dong Bingfeng frowned and said, "Brother, the enemy is almost twice as many as us. The yard is so big, it will be very troublesome for us to guard it. The archers cannot distribute it equally on all sides, so there will be no harm. It is better to stay in the center and deal with it at any time."

"Everything is placed in the east. If the enemy sieges from all directions, his numerical advantage will not be able to be used at all. He can only rush hard in the east, use a team to restrain our other three sides, and use cavalry to guard against us for breaking through," Zhao Jin said in contemplation.

After a pause, Zhao Jin's tone increased his judgment: "And they want to fight quickly and decide quickly, and they must take us down as soon as possible. As long as the opponent's team is not a novice, they must arrange this way. The most important thing is to be on the east side. Be careful of other places, prevent sneak attacks, and prevent others from shooting arrows from the roof."

The partners were silent and nodded in agreement. They had to adapt to the changes and adapt to local conditions. There were relatively spacious streets outside the courtyard walls of the He family's courtyard on the west, south and north. On the other side of the street were houses and workshops. However, the width of this street was limited after all, and in fact, it also limited the number of people that could be placed at each distance.

If you attack from these three sides, the streets will be crowded and unable to move away if there are too many people, and there will be no effect if there are fewer people. Moreover, no matter how many people there are, the number of defenders in the compound will always be greater than the number of attackers on the streets. There is no chance of winning, and it will consume your own strength in vain.

As long as you are experienced veterans, you know that you must give full play to your own advantages. Since you have twice the strength of the defenders, you must use it thoroughly.

To the east of the He family courtyard is a large open space, with two hundred horse teams and thousands of teams able to stop. It is definitely enough to spread out the attack, which can give full play to the advantages of the number of people.

The time is too long, even if it is delayed until noon the next day, such a private fight will inevitably alarm the government and cause unnecessary trouble, let alone Zhao Jin's companions in the city will come to support him.

To make a quick battle and a quick decision, you must give full play to your advantages. If you want to give full play to your advantages, you must be in an open area. The only option is to the east.

Those who could shoot arrows in the yard were placed on the east side of the courtyard wall, and hurriedly set up several more platforms. Zhao Jin came down from the building and went up to the high platform. He could see several big men in armor standing in front, pointing at the He family courtyard and saying something. His face couldn't be seen clearly, but several bald heads were shining under the torch.

"Master, there are about thirty archers in this yard. There are trenches directly opposite us, but the trench is not wide, at most four and a half feet," said Liu Cheng, the leader of the horse team, to introduce.
