The Rose of the Red Chamber

Chapter 160

It is said that thieves also have thieves, so it depends on what kind of thieves are.This kind of thing that goes to the homes of people in other countries to be a demon must be severely cracked down.

The landlord's family has no surplus food, so if you want to get a bargain, you have to see if your teeth are sharp enough.

When Tan Chunfei wanted to follow him to Northern Xinjiang, he heard Zhao Xiuning talk about this kind of thing.She didn't take it seriously at the time, but these foreign bandits actually came.

First, they sent spies who looked like people from the Central Plains to the city to inquire. After inquiring for a while and returning, they focused on Jiang's small courtyard.

why?

There are official daughters and sons from the capital living in it, so there must be a lot of property.Wouldn't it be a great pleasure to rob money and food, and then rob women.

Who would have thought that this is a hard stubble.

When the city was in chaos, these people originally wanted to rush in through the door, but unfortunately the door was not easy to attack, so they jumped over the wall to make peace with each other...

While jumping in five or six, everything I wanted was planted in it.Only then did the people outside realize that something was wrong, and they ignored the accomplices inside, and just ran away.

And the few people who jumped in and fell into the trap, all passed out from the pain immediately.

Damn, it hurts me to death.

For the convenience of movement, I wear less clothes, and the trap of Tanchun is so insidious. Those who jumped into the pit were directly penetrated and passed out, but those who did not jump in fell on the pointed guardrail, and not only were they inserted into the pit The arm that went over the guardrail was also removed by Tanchun's wolf dog.

If Tanchun hadn't let the dog trainers train the dogs beyond the guardrail, it is estimated that these people would have to treat these feral wolf dogs as snacks.

Because when these people came, it was in the middle of the night.So even if he knew what was going on at the fence, Tanchun didn't let his servants pass by, but just stood aside and stared at it from afar.

Zhao Huan and the Jiang family twins put on their coats and ran to Tanchun in the backyard at the moment there was any movement.

Tanchun was also awakened, and then put the mace in his hand that had been on the side of the bed.

Let the younger brothers sit on the kang in the main room, and called the maids to wait in the house, and asked the steward who came with him to take the Jiang family's guards to the front and rear doors to stare at the fence door that had been covered with fishing nets earlier. .

The fishing net was entangled with iron wire and short nails, and the edge of the fishing net could not be found at all in the dark, so it was too difficult to break through the encirclement and enter the mansion.

After the front and back sects sent people to watch, all the guards fell on the fence around the house.The wolfhounds loosened their reins, and the six big dogs strolled in the front and back yards. Under the light of the torches, their sharp teeth were half white.

The servants in the family have a weapon in hand.Girls, women, boys, who don't know kung fu, each has a mace, with long and short handles, all of which are extremely sharp, so that no one will get close to them when they swing them.

In some places in the room and courtyard, some quicklime was also placed, mainly to 'wash the eyes' of the bandits...

The small courtyard of Jiang's family really made Tanchun a dragon's pool and a tiger's den.

From time to time, the sound of screaming and running around could be heard from the street outside, but in the small courtyard of the Jiang family, it was quiet and uncomfortable.

Although Yi Ren was standing in the house, he would still look towards the wall from time to time.

Swallowing her saliva, Yi Ren's desire to take advantage of the random run faded away.

People outside can't get in, and people inside can't escape.

Nothing wrong, just can't get in, can't get out.

Because the Jiang family's defense was good, the Tanchun sisters and brothers were sleeping in the house, Liu Xianglian brought people over and walked around the small courtyard of the Jiang family, and finally yelled at the courtyard twice, the Jiang family's steward It was only through the door that I reported safety from afar.

Liu Xianglian twitched the corners of her mouth, glanced at the not-so-surprising house, and led her to other places.

He often lives here at night, so he naturally knows what's going on inside.As a result, even if he was busy in the middle of the night, he didn't dare to look for her like before.

Although he knew about Tanchun's arrangements, and even though the dogs she got knew him and wouldn't bite him, he was still afraid!

This kind of indiscriminate attack is not afraid when he doesn't know it, but the more he knows how his wife arranged it, the more he thinks about it and becomes more afraid.

At dawn on the second day, Jiang's guards carefully removed the fishing nets on the front and rear doors, but the fence door inside the door was kept closed from the inside.

When the Tanchun siblings woke up from their daze, the person in charge reported the achievements of last night's wait and see before Tanchun and the others had breakfast.

The six big-waisted Fanren are still alive, but their bodies have turned into gourds of blood.Ask Tanchun how to deal with it.

"Have someone light a charcoal basin, burn it red with a fire shovel and burn it on the wound, stop the bleeding first, and then send it to the camp to be treated by Liu Xianglian."

Hearing Tanchun say this, let alone Yiren, the others swallowed.

Did the girl of their family think of this trick while eating barbecue?

This is too harsh.

"Hiss~~" The fiery red iron landed on the bodies of those fans, and the people on the side seemed to smell the smell of meat.

After that, Tanchun asked Zhao Huan and the steward to bring the guards to send the intruders to the camp.

When they arrived at the camp, including Liu Xianglian, all the soldiers who saw the miserable appearance of these people were shocked.

This is obviously the appearance of being sentenced, but it is much worse than other bandits who were captured alive.

Liu Xianglian patted her chest, very glad that he got rid of some bad habits.

After a series of transfers in the frontier, the leader of the army this time is a second-rank official, surnamed Liu, known as General Liu.

After General Liu knew about the six bandits sent by Jiang's family, he also heard about the defense of Jiang's family. His heart moved, and he called Liu Xianglian and Zhao Huan to the camp of the Chinese army.

Zhao Huan is articulate and clear, and is also the supervisor of Tanchun's thoughts.So it's time to explain all the arrangements in the small courtyard of Jiang's family clearly.

Liu Xianglian's additions from time to time gave General Liu an idea of ​​the situation inside Jiang's small courtyard.

He originally wanted to go to Jiang's small courtyard to investigate, but later, because of his busy business, he didn't take care of it for a while.

However, he still asked people to imitate the method of Jiang's small courtyard, correct some deficiencies in defense, and at the same time advertise this method widely.

Every year, the people in the county will be hurt at this time.Although not every family can achieve the same level of defense as the Jiang family, as long as the difficulty is increased a little, they can still wait for their slow army.

It's not that they went, there are only corpses all over the yard.

"You can also put a gong in the yard of every household. Once something goes wrong, the gong will be sounded. First, to scare the thief, second, to report the news, and third, to let the neighbors around Contribute powerfully, but be careful if you are weak.”

One day after the autumn harvest, it started to snow in the north. Tanchun asked someone to make a hot pot, recruited his younger brother and Deng Tuzi to eat while listening to Liu Xianglian talking about that day, Tanchun thought about it, Then he said the simplest version of the alarm.

Putting a piece of tender mutton into her bowl, Liu Xianglian said, "This thing has been installed before. If it is hung too low, children and animals will touch it. If it is placed too high, it will be too late in times of crisis."

When Tanchun heard it, there was indeed such a problem, "However, I think that even if it is a false alarm report, every household should have this thing installed. Another thing is to punish the act of reporting false alarms. I think this situation should be avoided. .”

Whoever's brat owes money, let the parent of that family pay it on his behalf.Whoever's livestock is owed, let the head of the household figure out a way for himself.

Alarms were so necessary in ancient times, especially in small border towns like this.

Zhao Huan listened, and nodded aside, "Sister is right. It is best to install a piece of this gong in every household. It can not only call for help, but also give a warning to the people on the side. By the way, this is our house. Fan Bandit, is it the reason why my sister asked someone to beat the gong? After all, if you can come to our house, the neighbors may also go."

Tanchun nodded, that's what she meant when she asked people to do that.

"I'll go back to the camp tomorrow, and I'll tell the general about the gongs. By the way, the general set up traps outside the city according to the defenses of our house before. He said he would give me credit, and I will work together tomorrow." Come back, let him invite Huan'er."

After Liu Xianglian and Zhao Huan'er told about all the Jiang family's defenses, General Liu called all the blacksmiths in the county and other needed craftsmen, and started the intensive anti-theft work after the autumn harvest.

The ditches outside the city are deeper and wider than those dug by Tanchun, and the barbs inside are not as kind as Tanchun, which only hurt people's fur...

A fishing net wrapped with short nails spread out on the grass outside, sprinkled with a layer of black beans harvested this autumn...

So a group of bandits came to the city again when they didn't know the power of this trap.And many things after that are beyond their control.

After a defense battle that was waiting for work, the soldiers and civilians in the city were very happy.The same is true for General Liu, so he planned to give Liu Xianglian the greatest share of the credit.

When Zhao Huan heard Liu Xianglian's words, he quickly shook his head, "I'm not an official, so there's no real benefit to asking for merit. If it's the imperial examination in spring, maybe there can be some favors. But I'm just an examiner in spring. It's a waste of credit for me, brother-in-law should keep it for himself. At least it can be of some benefit."

Liu Xianglian shook her head, he didn't want this credit either.After all, it was only after stealing the idea of ​​​​the daughter-in-law.For his wife's brother, he feels better.

Tanchun listened to it, bit his chopsticks and thought for a while, "Huan'er is right, the credit and so on should be placed in your name. First of all, you are an official now, if you are promoted to half a level, you will be from the third rank. , I can also get a command from the third rank. Secondly, I gave it to Huan'er, and Huan'er is really useless at all.

The imperial examination papers are still to be done, and even the promotion is not faster than others, it is purely wasted. "

Tanchun turned his elbow outward without hesitation, but the younger brothers didn't feel this way at all.

However, there is one thing that Tanchun still can't figure out, "Why can Fanbang beat us here for bone grass, but our soldiers never go there for bone grass?"

Liu Xianglian was startled when she heard this, and then subconsciously asked, "Shall we go over there to hunt bone grass? There are very poor people there, what is there to hunt?"

"Why not, the best defense is to attack. If those foreigners are disabled and the battlefield is moved there, the people will be safer."

"However, there has never been such a practice."

Tan Chun raised his neck, and said boldly, "I often hear what people say, the rules set by the ancestors, but no one is a natural ancestor, and they all grow old little by little.

Also, the rules are set by those who are capable. If you are not capable, no matter how much you talk, it will be just nonsense, not a rule for people to obey.There was no such practice at the beginning, and perhaps self-protection was a problem.Now that we are in the sky, the people are strong and the horses are strong. When encountering such a thing, why not kill it in one go and snatch it back?

From now on, we will rob him every time before the autumn harvest, which can not only train soldiers, but also prevent theft.Don't say that there is so much poverty over there, if you have something to rob, if you don't have anything, you can rob animals. It really doesn't work. Just like them, we also rob people. "

Liu Xianglian: "..."

Zhao Huan: "..."

The Jiang family twins: "..."

The author has something to say: Chanel is different from Tanchun, they are dependent on each other, in the capital, in Jia's house.They spend more time together than others.They have been together the longest, because they guard a common secret, so Chanel's meaning to Tanchun is also more important than Baizhi and Qingwen.

The heroine always has to understand the past friendship and the real crisis.No one is perfect, no matter how good a person is, there will be shortcomings.And the heroine's shortcomings are not less...

It is said that the heroine is selfish, but the greatest selfishness is only because she did not follow the arrangement of Jia's family to get married.

Thinking about it from another angle, if this matter is placed in modern times, it is just a divorced wealthy daughter who ran away when the marriage was arranged at home.
