"Then we'll go." The two sisters answered in unison and left happily.
Looking at her youthful and energetic back, Li Yunhao shook his head and smiled bitterly.""These two girls are getting wilder and wilder. They're getting more and more mischievous and difficult to discipline.”
Zhao Gang said from the side," You can't say that. The two sisters were able to step forward at a time like this and were fearless in the face of danger. They were much stronger than many men. They had the demeanor of ancient chivalrous women."”
"Chivalrous lady demeanor?" " I hope they'll behave like the other maids," Li Yunhao said, waving his hand." I hope they'll be less worried…By the way, did you send anyone to guard the West Wall?"”
"I've already sent Li Yi over, but the courtyard on the west wall is very thick and difficult for thieves to break through. The main thing is that the front door and backyard are more important.”
After a series of commands and arrangements, the entire Li family was now in full force, waiting for the appearance of the bandits from Tiger Head Stockade.
The entire Li family, including the front and back courtyard, had a total of nearly 200 meters of courtyard walls. Since the east and west walls were all connected to the house, they formed an extremely thick defensive barrier.
Back then, the Li family's ancestors settled down here and started a business. They knew that this place was located at the border and that bandits were frequent. In addition, they had some enemies in their own family and had to be careful. Moreover, it was not easy to meet the local government. Sometimes, the disaster of war was even more serious than the bandits. Therefore, when the manor was built, the walls were taller and thicker than those of ordinary rich families, increasing the defensive power.
Regardless of whether it was the front yard or the back yard, the walls of the Li family were all made of bluestone. The walls were piled up with bluestone bricks and were twelve feet high. Unless the enemy had some special climbing tools, it would be difficult to easily climb over the walls. There were also arrow towers built. The main reason was that there were many cold weapons in the crossfire at that time, which provided some good defensive points.
Due to the high wall, when Zhao Gang and the others deployed their defenses, they had specially set up pillars and wooden stakes on the inner side of the wall. They had also set up a layer of springboards. They had also built a few small bunkers in the residence. Even if the main gate was broken through, they could still fight in the streets and defend layer by layer. At that time, they could cover the retreat of the Li family.
It was worth mentioning that these gangboards were close to the wall and were about two meters above the ground. When the soldiers stood on the gangboards, they could just stick their heads out from the top of the wall. As long as the enemy reached the wall, whether it was long-range shooting or hiding, they would have a huge defensive advantage. The wisdom of the ancients was really not for show. As long as they did not use cannons, they would have to be in front of many people to break through this mansion.
At this moment, the red gate of the Li family was tightly locked. Behind the gate, there were a large number of stone blocks and stone bars piled up to seal the gate. In this way, even if the bandits arrived and wanted to break in, they would not be able to succeed easily. Unless they used a large amount of explosives or cannons, it would be difficult for them to break in.
Zhao Yi was already standing on both sides of the front yard's gate. He was leading hundreds of guards with rifles and heavy machine guns. They had also prepared more than ten buckets of water. They were crouching on the top of the wall, staring ahead with full concentration, waiting for the arrival of the thieves.
Li Yunhao looked up at the night sky and found that it was pitch-black. The moon was dark and the wind was strong, so he couldn't even see his own fingers. It was a good day to kill and set fire. No wonder the bandits from Tiger Head Stockade chose to attack the Li family tonight. It seemed that they weren't stupid. He had underestimated them before. Those who could survive in this chaotic era were all capable.
Because he didn't have a watch, Li Yunhao didn't know what time it was. Therefore, he secretly contacted the Super Military Technology Taobao Trading System through his mind.
The system told him that it was 11:45 at night.
"11:45!" Li Yunhao held his chin and muttered to himself,"According to the time and the harassment of some of their teams, the bandits from Tiger Head Stockade should be here soon.”
Thinking of this, he immediately climbed up the springboard on the left side of the courtyard wall and came to Zhao Gang's side.
One of the Li family's accountant looked at the vast night in front of him and frowned."Young Master, we've been waiting for almost two hours. Why haven't the bandits from Tiger Head Stockade appeared yet? Are these bandits coming or not! Could it be that the news is wrong?"
"Soon," Li Yunhao said indifferently,"Just be more vigilant. Go to the backyard and look after the food with them. Prepare more water to prevent any unexpected things from happening. Hurry up! We don't need you here. The things that should be distributed have already been distributed. It will be very dangerous to fight later. Don't stay here! Hurry up and follow my arrangements!”
After saying that, he no longer spoke. He leaned on the wall with the others and waited patiently.
