"You are not young anymore. My father has already shouldered the responsibilities of the clan at your age."
"My father is punishing you today not because you provoked Yuan Yao, but because since you chose to take action, you must deal with him neatly!"
Mr. Peng hit the ground hard with his wooden cane and taught.
"In that case, why didn't my father let me lead the people in the middle of the tribe to deal with this matter? Instead, he asked that guy Peng Cai to lead people to attack."
"Isn't this another opportunity for him to show off his power in the clan?"
In front of his father, Peng Lang did not hide his dissatisfaction with Peng Cai, his nominal brother.
"snort!"
"Do you think being a father didn't give you a chance?"
"How can you control those thousands of fishermen without your father's approval?"
Mr. Peng glanced at his unsatisfied son and let out a heavy breath.
"Today we summoned everyone within the clan, and my father also specifically told Peng Cai not to show his face and to command from behind."
"Whenever there is a need to charge forward, let Peng Hu, Peng Zhao and the others take the lead."
"When the situation is finally settled, you can go over and show your face!"
"When the time comes, my father will gather all the young and old in the clan outside Shangliao City and watch you return in triumph with the captives. Wouldn't it be good?"
Peng Lang was so moved that he couldn't help himself when he heard that his old father had taken such pains for him.
"Father!"
Peng Lang shed tears of excitement and hugged his old father directly.
Mr. Peng smiled and patted his son on the back.
The father and son were still loving and filial, but the door of the ancestral hall was suddenly knocked open.
I saw a person rushing in. This person tripped over the threshold of the ancestral hall door and rolled up to the Peng family and his son.
"How unbecoming is it to be so panicked!"
Mr. Peng scolded angrily.
The man was so frightened that he pointed to the door and said: "Clan leader, young master, dozens of thieves rushed into the city from the north gate. They killed everyone on sight. They have killed dozens of our clan members!"
Mr. Peng's expression changed slightly, but he did not speak.
Peng Lang said angrily: "Where are the robbers from? They dare to run into Shangliao City and run wild. They really don't want to live long!"
"Gather the men, I will kill them myself!"
But Mr. Peng waved his hand to stop Peng Lang.
"You can't show up, you're just a thief, just let your uncle and the others handle it!"
He thought about it a little more and realized that he shouldn't let small things mess up his big plans.
The man who came in received the order and immediately ran out of the ancestral hall to find Mr. Peng's younger brothers in charge.
At this time, several strong men came in outside the ancestral hall. These men were Mr. Peng's close followers. They also learned that there were thieves in the city, and immediately rushed to the ancestral hall to protect the old man.
"Chief, this group of strong men is very cruel. After entering the city, they didn't care about wealth or food. They only killed people and set fires. They seem to be the enemies of our Peng family!"
He bowed his hands to the leader.
Mr. Peng pondered for a moment, and he also realized that something was fishy at this time.
How could he not come to seek revenge earlier or come later, but come to seek revenge when the Peng family is at its best and Shangliao City is at its most empty?
Damn Peng Cai!
The so-called respect leads to loyalty, fear leads to chaos!
Ask him not to do ruthless things and kill people everywhere to establish his authority. What's the use of just making people afraid?
This time it’s better, people are coming to kill you!
I just don’t know if it’s the bandits and grass bandits that I haven’t wiped out before, or the ordinary tenant farmers with foreign surnames who are humble and submissive?
"Don't panic!"
Mr. Peng's cane hit the stone steps hard, immediately calming down Peng Lang and all his followers in the courtyard.
"How many clan soldiers are there in the clan? They have all been summoned to the south gate!"
"Old man, I will kill these villains with my own hands this time!"
Seeing the old man's statement, everyone immediately felt like a backbone. The leader hurriedly supported Mr. Peng and walked out the door, while several others immediately rushed out to gather the clan soldiers.
Although the several hundred households in the main branch of the Peng family in the city are not engaged in production and only rely on the support of the farmers and fishermen outside the city, they are a proper exploiting class within the Peng family.
But these hundreds of households are not doing nothing serious. According to the clan rules, each of their families must have a serious Peng son to be trained as a clan soldier.
The weapons and armor of these people were either purchased at high prices or carefully forged within the clan. They can be said to be armored and strong. Moreover, he trained regularly and his combat power was much stronger than that of Yuzhang's county soldiers and county warriors.
Moreover, these people are all direct descendants of the main branch and are loyal to the clan.
Under normal circumstances, these clan soldiers are not needed at all. But like today, when fighting against regular officers and soldiers, these hundreds of soldiers need to be dispersed among tens of thousands of ordinary people to serve as leaders and backbone.
Although Peng Cai had already taken away most of the clan soldiers in order to deal with Yuan Yao, there were still some clan soldiers in the city.
…
After Huang Yi ascended the city, he was a little unbelievable. He only brought thirty people with him. Not only did he easily capture the city gate, but he also quickly messed up half of Shangliao City.
Huang Yi couldn't help but have strange thoughts. It seemed that today not only had he made great achievements, but he also had the opportunity to make extraordinary achievements!
Thirty people directly captured the entire Shangxiao City. Did they take the lead?
Huang Yi and his men first found some defensive equipment in the city tower. In addition to dozens of bows and arrows, there were actually several pairs of crossbows!
The manufacturing process of the crossbow is complex, but its use is very simple.
Huang Yi immediately decided to leave only ten men with bows and crossbows to guard the north gate, and led the remaining twenty men to continue to cover up the killing in the city.
First, they captured a person alive and easily interrogated him. It turned out that there were only two gates in Shangliao City, the north and the south.
The north gate has been occupied by Huang Yi, while the south gate faces the south branch of Xiushui. There is a ferry crossing out of the south gate.
The south branch is much wider and more turbulent than the north branch because it is merged by the flowing water. Therefore, it is impossible to build a wooden bridge like the north branch and can only cross the river by ferry.
The south side of the South Branch is still the territory of the Peng family, and there are Peng family farm families.
Huang Yi immediately thought of Peng's hundreds of fishing boats.
Only the north gate is controlled, not the south gate. The Peng family could also continuously transport clan members into the city by boat.
When Yuan Yao leads a large group of troops into the city, even if he can capture the south gate, he will still have to pay a lot of casualties and price.
Why don't you seize the south gate now before the other party reacts?
Huang Yi also asked clearly. There are only more than 300 households in Shangliao City and the population is only about 2,000.
It is not impossible for thirty elite warriors to control a small town with a population of two thousand!
If you really can't chew it down, just go back and guard the north gate!
"Kill!" Huang Yi once again took the lead and killed everyone on sight.
"Anyone taller than the wheel will be killed without mercy!"
Shangliao City soon became a place where bloodthirsty demons were rampant.
