Even if we could make it back to Erlong Mountain,
"I'm afraid it will be another ten days or so later."
"About ten days..."
Song Jiang collapsed to the ground.
No wonder he was in such a hurry.
It is now the dead of winter.
Even in the city,
People freeze to death every day.
Not to mention the deep mountains and forests.
Generally speaking,
In this season of harsh winter,
Even an old hunter who knows the forest well,
People generally don't dare to go into the mountains casually.
Firstly, they were afraid of the cold weather.
Secondly, it's winter...
In the mountains, where jackals, tigers, and leopards lack food,
Their aggressiveness will also be much stronger.
Going into the mountains under such conditions,
The three or four hundred people at Erlong Mountain
Those who made it back alive in the end
I'm afraid it won't even reach half.
First, Wu Yong and his men went to the north to steal horses from Huaixi through underhanded means.
The result was that all five hundred-plus henchmen he brought with him were lost.
Now, Sun Li,
More than two hundred people lost money.
These two incidents resulted in significant losses.
This has caused chaos on Erlong Mountain.
There are practically no soldiers left capable of fighting!
"Clerk, I had no other choice at the time,"
Sick Yuchi said helplessly,
"At the time, I was thinking,"
"Every one who escapes is a chance to survive."
"It's better than being completely surrounded and annihilated."
"But doesn't Ape Arm Village also want to be granted amnesty?"
Song Jiang said angrily,
“You should have explained things clearly back then,”
"Everyone wants to serve the imperial court,"
"Why would we want to exterminate them all!"
“This, clerk,”
Sun Li said helplessly,
"At the time, I didn't know anything about this group of people,"
"They thought they saw us robbing the 100,000 strings of cash,"
"So you want to double-cross me."
"What are we going to do now? What are we going to do?!"
Song Jiang slammed his hands on the table.
He looked extremely angry.
“Our village has soldiers capable of fighting,”
"They've all been thoroughly ravaged now."
"Now, only two or three hundred people remain in this village,"
"They were almost all elderly and infirm!"
"Those who can truly wield weapons,"
"I'm afraid there aren't even thirty or fifty people left!"
"Don't be hasty, sir,"
Sun Li quickly offered words of comfort.
"They're just lackeys,"
"We can just recruit more!"
"It's just right for winter,"
"Many impoverished people cannot survive,"
"We only need to use the money and supplies,"
"If you want to recruit people to come up the mountain, that's a piece of cake."
"easy?"
Song Jiang glared at Sun Li with a dark expression.
"After this commotion in Huaixi,"
“Where in our village would we find any extra money or grain?”
"Even food,"
"There aren't many left."
"Sir, we're bandits, aren't we?"
Sun Li laughed.
"The village has no money and no food,"
"Then let's go down the mountain and rob it..."
Chapter 1405 What to Do
"But how do we get past this hurdle?"
Song Jiang stared wide-eyed and asked,
"Didn't you say,"
"That group of people is near Erlong Mountain,"
"That means we'll have to let them attack,"
"Doesn't that mean our Erlong Mountain is now...?"
“Clerk, didn’t you just say…”
Sun Li couldn't help but say,
"Everyone wants to be granted amnesty,"
"Surely they wouldn't go so far as to kill everyone?"
"Heh, it can't be that bad?"
Song Jiang sneered.
"The chance to be granted amnesty is slim,"
"Destroy our Erlong Mountain!"
"The chances of them being granted amnesty by the imperial court,"
"Then it'll have to be even bigger!"
"Moreover,"
Song Jiang gritted his teeth and said,
"We are now bandits in the greenwood,"
"The head on that neck,"
"That's a treasure that can be exchanged for a reward!"
"If our strength hasn't been diminished,"
"This group of people might not be capable of any evil intentions."
"But we're like this now,"
"This group of people is most likely up to something!"
"this......"
Sick Yuchi also suddenly felt a headache coming on.
After a while,
He had an idea,
Suddenly he spoke up,
"Clerk, although our Erlong Mountain has suffered losses,"
"But these people don't know,"
"Why don't we have all the elderly and weak in the village put on armor?"
"Let's put some more scarecrow trees all over the village,"
"Dress up all these scarecrows too."
"As long as we don't get too close,"
"How can you possibly distinguish between these people?"
Are they even human?
"If all goes well,"
"That will definitely scare them away!"
"Is this really possible?"
Song Jiang said with concern.
"Clerk, things have come to this..."
Sun Li said helplessly,
"This is the only option we have."
"otherwise,"
"Once these people figure something out,"
"At that time, we'll probably all be doomed."
