Chapter 507: Setting a Trap in Public (1)
He has been holding on for such a long time. It is impossible to say that he is not tired. He is tired, but for the sake of his family, his wife and his children, he has to hold on no matter how hard or tired he is.
"Yeah. I always believe in you." Liu Xiaohua nodded.
"Xiaohua, I have something serious to tell you." Wu Yidao patted Liu Xiaohua comfortingly, and after she calmed down, he spoke.
"You say." Liu Xiaohua listened carefully.
"I'll take care of those men, and you help me take care of their families." Wu Yidao said seriously, "We must not let go of such an important opportunity this time, and we must not let Lord Lin down. I'm afraid they will say something wrong and offend Madam Ji, so please help me keep an eye on them."
"Okay." Liu Xiaohua nodded seriously, "I will definitely take good care of them, but will they listen to me?"
"I have already given them orders on the way back. Anyone who disobeys will be kicked out." Wu Yidao said.
Liu Xiaohua nodded, "Will Madam Ji come in person?"
"No matter she comes here in person or not, even if she is a master sent by someone, we can't let them offend her! I know these old people must have some thoughts of their own. You can listen to their requests if they are not excessive. If they are too excessive, don't give them face. I'll take care of everything, so you can scold me." Wu Yidao knew that some old people liked to take advantage of their seniority and point fingers, and some even liked to take advantage of others.
As long as it's not excessive, he can be satisfied to some extent, but if it's excessive, he will not let it go. Building a village is such an important matter, we must not let some troublemakers harm us.
Liu Xiaohua also knew the seriousness of the matter. In the past, everyone was a vagrant, so they could tolerate it. But now with such an important opportunity, they absolutely could not tolerate it. Kick those people out early, which would be beneficial to them with no harm.
The two discussed everything they could think of for tomorrow and didn't fall asleep until midnight, feeling satisfied.
On the return carriage
Ji Xiaou and Fang Chen were discussing the city defense with Qu Jing. Lin Feng listened while driving the carriage and expressed his opinions from time to time.
"General Fang, now that the Bai family has arrived, can we start our deployment?" Qu Jing looked at Fang Chen and asked.
"We can start now, but we can't do it openly. We can only prepare in secret first." Fang Chen nodded and looked at Qu Jing. "Open deployment is equivalent to alerting the enemy. We can't let them know our preparations. We can only justify it when they really take action."
"Preparing at night, like a thief?" asked Mother Ji.
"What can we do? There are so many eyes in the city during the day. It will be too obvious." Qu Jing frowned and could only act in the darkness of the night.
"What are you going to deploy?" Ji Xiaowu asked curiously. She never knew their plan. Although she knew it was going to be a fortress, she didn't know what defensive weapons they had prepared.
"In the suburbs outside the city, we plan to set a trap here. This is the moat, and we plan to release man-eating crocodiles into it." Fang Chen explained to Ji Xiaomu while holding the map he carried with him.
"Can't we just make the trap directly?" Ji Xiaomu looked at the empty space on the map in confusion, "Aren't these all empty?"
"This road is the only way in and out of the city. How can we dig the ground in front of everyone?" Qu Jing said. With so many eyes watching, there must be spies from the princes in the city hiding among the people. Once they take action, they will be exposed.
