The situation was stronger than the people, so Yan Siqi had to bow his head and submit. It was obvious that the people of the Tiger Flag were aggressive and his expression became very ugly. After all, he was also the head of the Tenth Village, and Bengang used to be his territory.
Yan Weixin didn't know about Yan Siqi's situation, but even if he knew, he didn't care. He held up the tin trumpet in his hand and continued shouting: "As long as Master Yan is willing to lead the people from the ten villages to open the village gate and surrender, we can forgive last night's incident." After all, we will be a family from now on."
His words came out through the tin speaker, and the sound was not only loud, but also clear.
Many people gathered on the wall of the tenth village. When these people heard Yan Weixin's words, they all whispered to each other and talked on the wall.
For many ordinary people in the Ten Villages, there is no resistance to the village joining the Tiger Flag, and they even have some expectations.
They have been living in Bengang and know a lot about things in Tiger Flag Village, and their lives are much better than those in Shizhai Village.
"What are you talking about! Shut up." The pock-marked old Xu scolded the people around him.
However, his scolding was of little use. Although the people around him stopped talking, they were still talking in whispers farther away, and he couldn't stop them even if he wanted to.
Yan Siqi stared at Yan Weixin outside the village with an ugly expression, and said coldly: "I gave Stupid Beigang to you in the beginning, and now you are trying to plan my ten villages. You are really ambitious."
"That's wrong." Yan Weixin said, "It's not my idea of using the tiger-character flag to attack the ten villages, but it's Master Yan's idea that you attack my tiger-character flag first. As for Ben Beigang, that's not what Master Yan gave up to Ours, if Mr. Li hadn’t spoken, would Master Yan have let Ben Beigang out?”
Yan Siqi's face turned cold and he said, "Even if Mr. Li has spoken, if I don't agree to hand over Benbei Port to you, your Tiger Flag will not even be qualified to settle on the island."
Bengang was the land he developed with his ten villages. Now Hu Zi Qi wants to swallow up his ten villages, which makes him feel that Hu Zi Qi is an ungrateful white-eyed wolf.
"Master Yan, things have reached this point. It is no longer useful to talk about it. Now only one family can be left in Bengang. I advise Master Yan and the brothers from Shizhai to submit to our Tiger Flag. We are all Han people. There is no need to kill each other." Yan Weixin shouted.
Yan Siqi said angrily: "What a fart, if you want to submit to me, you, the people of the Tiger Flag, will submit to our ten villages."
As the leader of the Ten Villages, he could not stay low and be small. Bengang had always been regarded as a forbidden favor by him, and he would never give it up to anyone else, not even Li Dan, let alone a business in the north of the Ming Dynasty. .
"Master Yan, don't refuse in a hurry. You might as well think about it and give me an answer after half a stick of incense." Yan Weixin shouted, then took away the tin speaker and found a smooth stone to sit on.
Yan Siqi had a livid face and said: "No, I can answer you now. It is impossible for me and Shizhai to surrender. If you have the ability, come and attack. I am waiting for you here at Shizhai."
Yan Weixin, who was a hundred and fifty steps away, smiled faintly when he heard this and ignored it, sitting on the stone motionless.
Yan Siqi, who didn't wait for a response, retracted his upper body from outside the village wall.
The pock-marked old Xu next to him said with a worried look on his face: "It seems that the people in the Tiger Flag are determined to annex Shizhai this time, and they have brought so many four-pound cannons with them. This battle is not going to be easy for us." ”
"Are you scared?" Yan Siqi turned to look at the pockmarked old Xu.
The pock-marked old Xu said sarcastically: "It's a lie to say I'm not afraid, but at this point, I'm afraid it's useless. I can only fuck with the people in the Tiger Flag."
"Just understand." Yan Siqi patted Lao Xu's shoulder with a pockmarked face, and then said immediately, "Gather the brothers from the ten villages and have everyone grab their weapons and prepare to follow me out." 120
The pock-marked old Xu frowned and said: "The people from the Tiger Character Banner promised to give us half a stick of incense, why don't we wait any longer, and there is a village wall blocking the front, which can block some cannons."
Yan Siqi shook his head and said: "I hope these wooden walls can't stop many cannons. It's better for me to rush out and kill them by surprise and seize their iron cannons."
"Isn't it too risky?" Pockmarked Old Xu asked worriedly.
There are more than a dozen cannons hundreds of steps away. It will take some time to rush over from the village. The people of the Tiger Flag will not let the people of the Tenth Village easily approach those cannons.
Yan Siqi said: "We have no choice. If we can't deal with the cannons they brought, it will be impossible to defend the Ten Villages. If we want to save the Ten Villages, we can only use this method."
After hearing this, the pockmarked old Xu persuaded: "Since the master has made up his mind, the subordinates will stop trying to persuade him. However, the person who goes to seize the cannon cannot be the master. It is too dangerous. Once something happens to the master, the ten villages will be destroyed." It’s really over.”
Yan Siqi waved his hand and said: "Only I can do this. I don't trust anyone else. And only if I take the lead in doing this, the brothers below will do their best."
The pock-marked old Xu opened his mouth, trying to persuade him, but finally it turned into a sigh.
He knew that what the big boss said was right. If he wanted the people below him to willingly sacrifice their lives, only the big boss would risk his own life to capture the cannon of the Tiger Flag.
Yan Siqi patted the pockmarked old Xu on the shoulder, then stepped back from the wall and stood behind it.
Several leaders from the ten villages had already arrived at the wall. In addition to them, there were also men standing behind the wall who were obviously stronger than the others. These men were holding sharp blades and the muscles of their upper arms were bulging.
These strong men are the elite of the Ten Villages. They never do anything to cultivate fields. They usually just practice martial arts and play with weapons, or do some patrolling and hunting.
Yan Siqi glanced at the faces of these people and said: "Brothers, the people from the Tiger Flag have already arrived. I won't say any nonsense. The leader and I will charge into the village and kill all the Tiger Flag people." People, as long as you win this battle and capture the tiger-character flag’s stockade, they will give you three percent of what’s in their stockade.”
"Don't worry, boss, all brothers will take care of themselves." A leader shouted.
Yan Siqi shouted with satisfaction: "Okay, brothers, follow me and fight out."
"Kill out!"
"Kill out!"
"Kill out!"
The men with sharp blades around them waved their weapons and shouted loudly.
Yan Siqi turned around and said to the people guarding the village gate: "Open the village gate."
The village door was made of pure wood, and the air on the island was humid, so it was very heavy. It took four people to push hard to open the village door.
"Brothers, follow me and charge!" Yan Siqi pointed his big knife forward and rushed out of the village through the gate.
Behind him, a group of people from the Ten Villages holding sharp blades also rushed out.
