After dressing as a superb old woman, I am bound to the power system

As the risk level increases little by little, people on Zhuangzi are also making various preparations.

Qiao Lan called Shan Tao to him and asked him what he would do if An Longshan suddenly came to another place.

Shan Tao thought for a moment and then said respectfully: "The terrain outside Anlong Mountain is flat and open. There are bamboo towers built on the mountain. If there is an invasion from foreign enemies, you can see clearly at a glance."

At this point, Shan Tao looked at Qiao Lan again, and his tone became a little unpredictable: "If we really encounter something, the guards on the Zhuangzi will cover the old lady's evacuation! Even if there are fewer people, there are still so many people on the Zhuangzi to block it.

It’s here!”

To put it bluntly, just run away!

There is no other way but to escape.

Qiao Lan's face became serious, "You can't just run away! You should do something." Shan Tao stood aside and listened respectfully. Although he didn't know what Qiao Lan was thinking, he would do whatever Qiao Lan told him.

On that day, a large number of farmers were divided into Zhuangzi and dug holes on all the roads leading into Zhuangzi.

These pits are well-proportioned and have a depth of three to five meters.

After digging the pit, Qiao Lan asked the farmers to lay sharpened bamboo poles at the bottom of the pit, and then spread coarse netting, hay and fallen leaves on top to disguise it as an ordinary road.

While digging the hole, Qiao Lan asked her men to tell stories to the farmers.

For example, life outside is hard, with not enough to eat and not enough to wear warm clothes! Now that we have finally lived a good life, there is a war outside again. It is said that they are recruiting food and people everywhere, causing the people to become homeless.

It is said that there is a group of military households outside who are short of food. They are searching everywhere and have found them near them.

Most of the farmers in Zhuangzi moved here from outside. They know how hard life is outside, and they know even better what kind of life they are living. Without Qiao Lan having to say anything, they will take up arms to defend their homeland.

Now when I hear this little story, my blood boils even more and I work harder.

From morning to night, we dug vigorously! The progress of the work was rapid!

However, digging a trap is just the beginning, and the trap can only trap some people.

Qiao Lan then directed another group of people to place some jars at the entrance to Zhuangzi.

Qiao Lan bought several barrels of flammable industrial alcohol in the system at a high price and asked the people below to put them into small jars.

At that time, if someone breaks down the door, forces his way into the village, breaks the jar of alcohol, and lights a fire, he will surely be able to stop some people.

Fortunately, the alcohol in the system mall is not expensive and is completely transparent. Qiao Lan explained that it is just water with medicinal powder added.

Regardless of these, Qiao Lan also asked the people below to train quickly and equip them with a lot of weapons.

There are many old and weak women and children in Zhuangzi, and they must be protected when the time comes.

If too many people come, Qiao Lan still has one last layer of preparation.

There are some pits at the back of Anlong Mountain, which were originally used to process farmyard manure. They are not too big and are scattered on both sides of the road.

Qiao Lan mixed some earth-fire medicine according to the system's formula and buried it inside. If the pursuers got there, the things buried there would come in handy.

Having come this far, Qiao Lan didn't think about the issue of casualties.

If someone really comes looking for her and leaves with the news, they will be the ones who suffer.

The people in Zhuangzi followed Qiao Lan's instructions for several days, and even the children in Zhuangzi were carefully warned not to go to the place where the trap was set for fun.

Qiao Lan stared at the danger value, watching it change day by day, and finally jumped to 35.

Today is still a bright autumn day with no clouds in the sky.

Because the news of the grain levy and arrests reached Zhuangzi, everyone in Zhuangzi became very vigilant.

I climbed up to the tall bamboo building before dawn, staring into the distance all the time, not daring to relax.

When it was time for the noon shift, the patrolman standing on the bamboo tower quickly went down to pick up the dry food and climbed up again. Before the lunch was stuffed into his mouth, he saw something moving in the wilderness in the distance.

"Look, what is that? Is someone riding a horse?" the man asked, not even bothering to eat.

"It does look similar! Do you want to take a look again?"

"What are you looking at? Go and pass the news!"

This bamboo building is built among the woods at the highest peak of Anlong Mountain. It is surrounded by trees and is very hidden. It is very difficult to distinguish the bamboo building from a distance.

Even if you get closer, you have to walk up to it to recognize it!

Every time a visitor comes in or out of Anlong Mountain, there are many carrier pigeons reporting the news in advance, and then the people on the Zhuangzi say hello, so the people on the bamboo tower don't need to be so vigilant.

But, things are different now.

The two quickly descended from the bamboo building and ran deeper into the building.

The news that a group of soldiers and horses arrived outside Anlong Mountain quickly spread in Zhuangzi!

Qiao Lan opened the mini map and found that the group had not yet reached the visible range of the mini map.

Although the distance is a bit far, the risk level has not decreased at all!

Qiao Lan immediately asked Shan Tao to evacuate the farmers on the village, hiding those who should be hidden, and guarding those who should be guarded.

Only when they slowly approached could she make her next plan.

Now that the war is tense, they will not send too many people here. Most of the preparations Qiao Lan has made are for the unarmed farmers on Zhuangzi and the farmland outside.

-

Dozens of miles away, a small group of elite cavalry was riding horses and strolling on the hilltop.

"Captain, this place looks very deserted. It doesn't look like there are people at all! Are we going in the wrong direction?" said a soldier wearing armor on a horse.

"Yes, it's right here! Look at this road!" As he said this, the man pointed to a certain side of the mountain.

The soldier looked around, not knowing why.

"Captain, there is nothing!"

"The dead branches on the roadside are neatly folded. If it were just jackals, tigers and leopards in the wild, they wouldn't have such wide traces. If you search in the mountains, you might be able to find some ruts."

With that said, a soldier rushed out on horseback, and within a short time, he brought back the news, which showed traces of ruts.

"Come on, it's great here! Military glory is right in front of you!" the leading captain said happily, and rushed forward with the men and horses around him.

On the other side, Qiao Lan heard that most of the people in Zhuangzi were hiding, and was about to find a place to hide. Suddenly, she noticed the names of people emerging on the small map, and paused in her tracks for a moment.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Duan Mingjing asked.

Qiao Lan shook her head, "Nothing? I'm just a little dizzy. I'll take a rest before leaving!"

The mini map has a limited range, and Qiao Lan is afraid that she won't be able to count the number of people if she goes too far.

Duan Mingjing squatted in front of Qiao Lan: "Mother, I will carry you!"

After doing farm work for several years, Duan Mingjing has a certain degree of confidence in his own strength.

Qiao Lan shook her head, "Help me walk!"

"Coming!"

Qiao Lan walked forward slowly, counting the people on the mini map.

Just as she had guessed, there were not many people coming, but quite a few, a total of fifty-three people, all of whom were cavalry.

These fifty-three people have entered Anlong Mountain, and no one can let them leave!
