"Then sir, what should we do next? We can't just not react at all."
Su Qi'an pondered for a while, and then said, "This is a small matter, just a siege. As usual, do whatever you have to do. As long as Wei Yang has no intention of attacking, let him be. Give him some courage and judge him." Don’t dare to attack rashly.”
"What I'm more curious about is why Wei Yang is so interested in these refugees?"
"In this way, little sister, in the past half month, send me a copy of all the information on the refugees. I want to check it carefully."
"During this period, Li Hu and Zhao Da, just continue as usual, restrain your team members more, don't conflict with Wei Yang and the others, and don't cause trouble until the matter is clarified."
After receiving Su Qi'an's order, everyone nodded and quickly retreated.
Wei Yang's sudden siege did cause some panic in Dongshan Village, but as Su Qi'an's order was issued, the panic quickly subsided.
The villagers were doing what they had to do as usual.
Just like Su Qian said, all Wei Yang can do is besiege. As for going one step further and searching the village, he does not have such right.
After all, the current size of Dongshan Village is comparable to that of a town. If it is really pushed hard, it will cause a lot of resentment.
Moreover, in this village, there is a person named Su Qi'an.
Considering Su Qi'an's contribution to suppressing bandits in Lingbei County and his own reputation as a civil servant, even the magistrate of Lingbei County has to give him some respect.
Wei Yangzong was ranked second in the rankings, but the real power in his hands was only the county magistrate. It was not that easy to control Su Qi'an.
Dongshan Village was besieged, and Wei Yang did not leave. Instead, he set up camp in an open space not far from the village.
It seems that he plans to continue fighting with Su Qian.
After Wei Yang issued the transfer order, he didn't take too drastic actions. He sat in the tent and his servants interrogated one by one according to the instructions.
It looked very calm, like a routine inspection.
At this time, some people can remain calm, while others are anxious.
Suddenly, a man in black appeared in Wei Yang's tent.
Although his whole body was shrouded in black, his excitement could be felt from his conversation.
The purpose of the men in black coming here is, if nothing else, to persuade Wei Yang to take advantage of the siege to make some moves to force the other party to engage in friction.
In this way, they have a reason to move into Dongshan Village openly and openly, and the bigger the issue, the better.
At that time, it would give them a legitimate reason to attack Dongshan Village.
This kind of trick has been tried repeatedly during the battles of the men in black.
But his proposal was directly rejected by Wei Yang.
Wei Yang's reason is also very simple. Dongshan Village has been trapped. Later, he only needs to cut off Dongshan Village's connection with the outside world and cut off water and food.
As time goes by, Su Qi'an will definitely surrender to him. This feeling of victory without fighting is what Wei Yang wants.
As for the suggestion of the man in black, in Wei Yang's opinion, it was just a bad move.
After all, he is one of the top three Jinshi, and there are people in the county and city. With such a strong background, it is completely disgusting for him to do something that is not on the stage.
Wei Yang was quite disdainful.
Even though Wei Yang had such a strong negative attitude, the man in black still tried his best to persuade.
"Sir, as the saying goes, taking advantage of someone's illness can kill someone. This Su Qian is not an ordinary person. Now that we have such a reason for the siege, why not go one step further and add fuel to the flames. When the time comes, with your strength, Su Qian won't even think about overturning the situation. possible."
Wei Yang shook his head and directly stopped the man in black's thoughts, "I know that you stay at the border all year round and only look at the results, regardless of the process."
"This is caused by the environment. I can understand it, but this is Lingbei County. Don't forget that our purpose is to find those remnants and deal with Su Qi'an. We are only in second place. Don't be confused about priorities."
"But my lord..."
"Okay, stop talking.
I know that Su Qian's situation is not simple, but it is not to the point of earth-shattering. Your task is to assist me, not to give orders. Don't overstep your authority, otherwise you will understand the consequences. "
When Wei Yang said this, the man in black could only nod helplessly, then turned and left the tent.
Standing outside the tent, the man in black looked at Dongshan Village ahead, saying nothing and sighing helplessly.
On Su Qian's side, after receiving the order, Li Hu and Zhao Da's village protection team maintained great restraint and rarely clashed with these government officials.
Li Xiaomei, on the other hand, sent the collected refugee information to Su Qi'an's desk early.
You won't know if you don't look at it, but you will be shocked at first glance. The collected information on refugees is at least one meter thick.
Su Qian knew that she was very busy.
Rubbing his temples, Su Qi'an read through it attentively.
Looking at it like this, the sky outside the house soon turned dark.
Gradually, the night got late, and the candles in the villagers' rooms were extinguished. Only in Su Qian's room, the candles flickered from night to dawn.
When I finished reading the last piece of information, the sun outside entered the house through the window.
Qin Ziyin knew that Su Qian was busy, so he didn't disturb her too much. He put a breakfast on the desk and went to do his own thing.
Because he was so fascinated by what he was watching, the breakfast on the table was almost cold by the time Su Qian came back to his senses.
Su Qian didn't mind, picked up the bowl and drank.
Unfortunately, after a night of hard work, the refugee information sent did not contain what Su Qi'an wanted.
There is probably only one purpose for Wei Yang to make such a big splash, and that is that among this group of refugees, there must be the whereabouts of Hou Laiyang Hou.
"Did I guess wrong?"
Su Qi'an thought to himself that he was still very relieved about Li Xiaomei's work, and it was definitely not because of Li Xiaomei's negligence.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it. This is probably a trap set by Wei Yang."
After thinking about it, there was no result, so Su Qian could only think like this.
After drinking the porridge and relaxing, Su Qi'an felt sleepy in his mind, and he soon fell asleep.
When Su Qian woke up, a childish little face appeared in front of him.
It was a little girl of six or seven years old, with a pair of big eyes, staring at him.
This scene shocked Su Qian.
He jumped up from the bed. Su Qian's funny behavior shocked the little girl in front of him. Let out a giggle.
Hearing the sweet laughter like silver bells, Colonel Wang's figure ran directly in from outside the house.
Seeing this scene, he first held the little girl in his arms, took a step back, and then quickly knelt down to apologize to Su Qi'an.
"I'm sorry, sir. It was my subordinate's negligence that caused my little sister to disturb my husband's rest. Please forgive me."
Su Qian came to his senses, waved his hand, signaled Captain Wang to stand up, and said.
"Hey, little girl, it's normal to run around, it's okay."
"Little girl, what's your name?"
"My name is Wang Qianqian, what is your name?
When asked by Su Qian, this pink and tender little girl spoke directly without any fear.
"Qianqian, you can't be so rude to sir, you have to call him sir." Captain Wang said quickly.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Su Qian waved his hand.
After communicating with Captain Wang for a while, Captain Wang took Wang Qianqian away.
Looking at Wang Qianqian leaving, Su Qian's face showed a bit of a smile.
Maybe it’s because I’ve been in Great Liang for so long, and I have gained some status since then.
The people around him gradually became a little awed and even polite towards him.
Su Qi'an knew that as his status increased, this kind of awe was unavoidable. It was rare to meet a little girl who was not afraid of him, but it made Su Qi'an smile knowingly.
As time passed, a week passed, and the siege of Wei Yang continued.
This time, not only the government officials from Lingbei County were dispatched, but the support requested by the county also arrived three days later.
There are five hundred people, including the county government officials, a total of six to seven hundred people. This formation is no weaker than Su Qi'an's village protection team.
With the arrival of supporting soldiers, Dongshan Village's water and food supply was cut off, and a passage to the outside world was quickly formed.
The effect was so remarkable that in just three days, most of the production in Dongshan Village was stopped.
The original calm gradually gave way to dissatisfied complaints. Although the two presidents Qin Ziyin and Li Xiaomei came forward, the complaints quickly subsided.
But they all know that if this siege continues, this complaint will break out.
Wei Yang, who was standing outside the tent, looked at the seemingly peaceful Dongshan Village in front of him, raised the corners of his mouth and sneered.
"Hmph, Su Qian, let me see how long you can hold on."
"Have you found anything during this period of searching?" Then, Wei Yang turned his head and asked his men.
"Sir, I found nothing."
"What a bunch of trash. Keep investigating. Even if we clean out these homeless people, we still have to find them."
After leaving these words, Wei Yang turned around and entered the tent.
In Su Qian's room in Dongshan Village, Li Hu, Zhao Da, Li Xiaomei and others looked anxious.
After staying in Su Qi'an's room for half an hour, they finally left one after another, but there was not much joy on their faces.
Watching everyone leave, after a while, Tong Zhan's voice suddenly sounded, "Sir, I think their emotions have been hit hard. Look, do you want the New Army brothers to make a little move to alleviate the pressure on Dongshan Village? ?」
Su Qi'an shook his head, "No, this is a kind of emotional training for them. After all, they have been going so smoothly along the way. If they are not frustrated now, they will suffer later."
"Sir, what if they can't bear it?"
"If they can't even overcome this little setback and don't understand, from now on, they won't need to say that they are my Su Qian's people."
"I understand." Soon, Tong Zhan disappeared.
After a while, outside the house, a pair of big eyes peered into the house.
Looking at the people outside the house, Su Qian said with a smile. "Stop hiding, Qianqian, I see you."
After being pointed out by Su Qian'an, Wang Qianqian let out a sigh and walked in a little dejectedly.
Seeing Wang Qianqian's unhappy look, Su Qian waved over and said with a smile.
"Who made Qianqian unhappy? Tell me and let me vent your anger on Qianqian."
Wang Qianqian rolled her eyes, pursed her lips, and said to Su Qian, "Who else could it be? Huh, next time, I won't let you find out."
Su Qian just laughed and touched Wang Qianqian's head.
