Hu Sanniang gritted her teeth and said angrily,
"what?"
Grandpa Zhu's aged body swayed slightly.
Then, in disbelief, she murmured...
"Biao'er is dead?"
Upon receiving news of his son's death,
Let the already aged Grandfather Zhu...
His body hunched over even more in an instant.
If this were an ordinary elderly person,
Zhao Yuan might even sympathize with him.
But now, all of this in Zhujiazhuang...
It was all the fault of Zhu Taigong's family.
Zhao Yuan just wanted to sympathize.
I can't feel any sympathy for them.
"Grandpa Zhu, you must have heard the commotion outside, right?"
Zhao Yuan said coldly,
"Now I'm giving you two choices: either wait until Liangshan conquers the manor, and then your whole family will be wiped out and you'll all go to keep your third son company."
"Either you surrender now, and Liangshan will have less bloodshed. For that reason alone, I might spare some blood from your family..."
Chapter 421 Splitting Up
Grandfather is getting old.
Now that Zhu Biao is no longer there to instigate things,
Knowing full well that the Zhu Family Village was destined to fall into the hands of Grandfather Zhu,
After hesitating for a while,
He nodded blankly.
"I have a grandson, and I hope that the leader of Liangshan will keep his promise and spare his life!"
"Don't worry, Liangshan won't harm children,"
Zhao Yuan assured him,
"As long as you go out now and make all the soldiers and servants of the Zhu Family Village stop resisting, I will never let anyone harm your grandson."
.......
Outside Zhujiazhuang
After seeing the black smoke rising from the village
Xu Guanzhong immediately gave the order.
"297"
Let the soldiers, who have rested for most of the day, launch a full-scale attack!
Compared to when I first started work this morning with nothing in my hands,
At this time, Liangshan,
The poplar trees on the hillside have already been used.
More than a dozen long ladders were built.
Two simple ladders,
And a rough-looking battering ram.
These siege weapons,
If used in a large city like a prefecture capital...
Obviously, it's unlikely to be very effective.
But when used in a small village like Zhujiazhuang...
That's enough!
Under the suppression of nearly a thousand archers,
The Liangshan soldiers shouted,
Carrying wooden ladders, pushing siege ladders and battering rams,
They charged fiercely towards the wall of the Zhu Family Village!
At first, Zhu Long and Zhu Hu, who were guarding the manor walls, were desperately organizing the manor's soldiers to fight back.
But as the plumes of smoke in Zhujiazhuang increased...
The villagers' panicked shouts...
The news eventually reached the ears of the soldiers guarding the manor walls!
"How is this going?"
"Why is there a fire in the village?"
"Listen, isn't someone in the village shouting 'murder'? Has Liangshan already attacked the village from another direction?"
.......
The commotion in the village
Not only did it make the villagers on the manor walls fickle,
Even Zhu Long and Zhu Hu were alarmed.
Zhu Long gritted his teeth and said in shock and anger,
"What's going on? Didn't Third Brother say that if that Liangshan chieftain really takes the bait?"
"After capturing him, should we immediately bring him over to force back the Liangshan troops?"
Zhu Hu, standing nearby, snorted angrily.
"At this point, do you still think his plan will work?"
"If things go smoothly on the third brother's side, even if they haven't captured the Liangshan chieftain, they should at least send people to clean up those Liangshan spies who set fire to the manor by now!"
"But look around, is anyone in charge of the village now?"
Zhu Long swallowed hard.
He said in horror,
"Could it be that the Liangshan army really attacked the manor from another place?"
"Who knows?"
Zhu Hu stomped his foot in frustration.
"Brother, you guard the manor walls first. I'll take some men down and take out those Liangshan spies who set fire to the manor!"
"Otherwise, if things continue like this, with attacks from both inside and outside, this manor simply won't hold!"
"it is good!"
Zhu Long nodded.
Seeing Zhu Hu lead his men down the road,
He then remembered something and quickly said,
"Second brother, while you're at it, go home and see how Father and Third Brother are doing!"
Zhu Hu responded.
After leading over a hundred villagers down the manor wall,
He immediately divided these people into three teams.
Two of the teams went to the place in the village where the fire had started.
Capture the spies from Liangshan.
As for Zhu Hu himself...
Then he took the rest of the people,
Heading towards Grandpa Zhu's house!
Along the way,
Zhu Hu encountered many guests who had escaped from their homes.
After learning that someone had indeed come to abduct the bride,
But his own brother,
Along with the thirty or forty farmhands lying in ambush,
After they had all been killed by the enemy,
Even though Zhu Hu often harbored resentment towards Zhu Biao,
But after all, they are brothers bound by blood.
At this moment, I couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
Upon learning that,
The Hu siblings were rescued from prison.
After Hu Cheng had already captured his father,
Zhu Hu was worried about his father's life.
He was extremely anxious.
He took the lead and ran home.
Then, right at the entrance of the Zhu family's house...
They encountered Gao Liang and his two servants who had just come out of there!
"Who are you?"
Zhu Hu was stunned for a moment.
He had just opened his mouth to ask the question,
They had already sensed something was wrong.
Although the Zhu Family Village has a population of three to five thousand,
But the three women in front of him were all beautiful.
If they were from the village,
I must have known all along.
How could I not recognize you!
"Are you from Liangshan?"
Zhu Hu roared angrily.
"Guards! Seize these women, 2.0, immediately!"
When he ordered the servants around him to come forward...
Zhu Hu also personally charged forward, wielding a long spear.
Regarding the three people, Gao Liang and his servants,
Zhu Hu harbored no contempt.
