is alone is enough to show that these bandits are not easy to deal with!He's been on the battlefield, he knows that when infantry faces a cavalry charge with equal numbers, they are as fragile as pape..."A brilliant move, striking at the source!"

Li Yuxiang exclaimed with heartfelt admiration.

Upon hearing Yang Lin's announcement, she knew that Liu the Landlord's family was finished!

The village landlords, whose assets were primarily farmland, exploited both tenant farmers and laborers while also relying on them.

In the past, tenant farmers and long-term laborers had no choice but to work for landlords, paying taxes and rent in order to barely make a living. Therefore, even though they were exploited, they couldn't leave their landlords.

But now, working for Yang Lin pays more than working for Liu the landlord. Making a living is no longer an issue, so who would want to be exploited by Liu the landlord

Seeing Li Yuyao's face brightening, Yang Lin shook his head.

"It's too early to be happy."

Li Yuxiang was taken aback: "Why"

She really couldn't think of any more solutions the Liu family could come up with.

Yang Lin shook his head and said, “Even mad dogs bite people. When they are pushed to a corner, we will be in danger.”

Li Yuyao exclaimed: "Are you saying he will retaliate against us"

Yang Lin shrugged: "Who knows, anyway, it's always good to be prepared."

The Ironworks forged two sets of crossbow parts today. Yang Lin retrieved the parts and, along with the women, assembled them. In less than an hour, both crossbows were fully assembled.

The crossbow bolts equipped with the crossbow were also made, thirty in number, enough for short-term use.

That afternoon, Yang Lin took the women out and found a secluded forest to practice shooting. They worked on improving their accuracy, draw speed, and even practiced moving while shooting.

>The result Yang Lin is very satisfied.

Li Yuyue and her older sister Liao Hongying, within ten meters, can almost hit every target.

Si Mei's accuracy is also good, second only to Yang Lin. The eldest and second sisters are slightly worse, while the fifth and sixth sisters need to improve.

Three little girls are left, though they can't hit the target yet, their progress is very fast and they have a bright future.

It came to night in the blink of an eye.

Before going to sleep, Yang Lin announced that starting tonight, everyone would take turns keeping watch, with each person taking two hours shifts and then resting.

Out of the blue, suddenly have to stay up all night Everyone is very confused.

But Li Y Yao had thought of what Yang Lin had said during the day, and asked, “Are you worried that the Liu family will take revenge on us”

Yang Lin nodded. "There's a high possibility. For safety, we should still be careful."

Yang Lin didn't dare to be careless at all. In his past life, there were too many examples of this. Often when encountering problems and unable to solve them, the solution was to eliminate the person who raised the problem!

Although he didn't intentionally think about competing with Liu, the landlord, the village was so small that his own development would inevitably affect Liu's family's interests. It wasn't surprising that the other party saw him as a thorn in their side and wanted to remove him.

Yang Lin didn't want to regret it after something happened, so he could only prepare thoroughly!

On the doors and windows, I've already made some holes for observation and shooting.

“During the night watch, if you notice anything unusual, wake everyone up first. If the situation is urgent, you can shoot directly!”

Yang Lin scanned the crowd of women.

"Remember"

All the women nodded in confusion.

"Tonight, starting with me, I will guard the time from Wu to Hai; my wife will guard the time from Zi to Chou; and my eldest sister will guard the time from Yin to Mao."

"Alright, everyone rest up. Leave your crossbows nearby, with the bolts in their quivers, ready to string at a moment's notice!"

Each person works for two hours, so three people work for a total of six hours, which covers the entire period from nightfall to daybreak.

Having made all the arrangements, Yang Lin moved a bench and sat down at the door.

Looking at Yang Lin's resolute back, everyone felt that he might have overreacted a little.

However, no one objected to Yang Lin's decision, and after the lights were out, everyone went to sleep...

Good evening, Liu family.

Liu Youcai told the steward to call four servants.

"Today, you guys do one thing for me! Once it's done, each of you gets a tael of silver!" Hearing about the tael of silver, these four people all felt their hearts skip a beat.

They know, with such a high reward, it must be another job for them to commit murder and robbery!

"Yes, Master."

The man with the scar at the front, hurried to bow.

"Yang Lin!"

Li Youcai gritted his teeth and uttered the name.

"I want him dead!!"

When they heard the name Yang Lin, one of the four people's heart skipped a beat.

The scarred man showed no surprise, let out a cold laugh, and clasped his hands together: "Rest assured, Master. If you want him dead tonight, he won't see the dawn."

Four people should go down and take the knife, get ready to go.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, a night for murder and arson!

The man with the scar had done many dirty jobs for the Liu family and was very experienced at this kind of thing.

When he was just ugly, a well-rested scarface opened his eyes.

"Brothers, let's get to work!"

Scarface grabbed a short knife and, with the three others, slipped out of Liu's house under the cover of darkness, hurrying toward Yang Lin's home.

It was still an hour before dawn, the time when people are most drowsy.

Yang Lin's affairs, Dabao naturally knew about them, but he didn't take Yang Lin seriously at all.

A young scholar, accompanied by several women, thought to himself that today's tasks would be easy.

However, when they reached Yang Lin's courtyard, they still cautiously slowed their movements, approaching gently and carefully opening the gate before stepping into the courtyard.

Inside the Yang family's house,

Now it's the eldest sister's turn to keep watch.

Late at night, fatigue settled in. The elder sister stared out the window for a while, and her eyelids began to fight each other.

In the deserted courtyard, there was nothing unusual. Gradually, her eyes began to struggle to stay open.

In a daze, she thought that it was almost dawn and it wouldn't be harmful to take a nap.

So she didn't raise her weary eyelids again, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.

Suddenly, she saw a woman in white, covered in blood, standing before her. Her eyes streamed with blood tears, and a pale hand reached out towards her.

The elder sister was so scared that she suddenly opened her eyes wide and gasped for breath.

It was all a dream!

She let out a long sigh.

After waking up, she still felt a chill.

She shuddered involuntarily, and her spirits lifted.

However, the moment she opened her eyes and peered through the holes in the window, she was utterly terrified!

In the darkness, four stealthy figures in black were making their way into the yard.

Big sister's head buzzed.

She pinched herself hard, making sure this wasn't a dream. Forgetting the crossbow beside her, she rushed to shake Yang Lin.

For the past two days, Yang Lin had been on high alert and hadn't relaxed for a moment. The instant he was woken by his elder sister, he sprang up and reached for the crossbow on the floor.

"There are people in the courtyard! Four of them!"

"Big sister spoke nervously, her voice trembling,"

Yang Lin's heart skipped a beat.

Four

The other party really thinks highly of themselves, doesn't it

Yang Lin hurriedly woke up Li Yuyao and Liao Hongying, pointed outside the window, motioning for them to stay silent. He quickly strung his crossbow and came to the window...sing, let alone to try and cleanse its filth—it's like a fool dreaming.And now, he has done it! Looking back on his past dreams, for some reason, his heart feels extremely grounded.Zhao Kang knew bet...
