Chapter 229 The whole village retreats 2
It's not that these families are selfish or cruel, but they have enough things to transport themselves, and their elderly, the weak, women and children also need to take the bus. How can they make extra space for the villagers?
If they have spare cars, wouldn't it be nice for them to take some extra things from home? No one else would get to use their cars.
The villagers who were frustrated did not dare to say much, let alone the ordinary villagers who were protected by the patrol team like them. Even the patrol team members who were responsible for protecting them, Gu Wenxuan had already made it clear in advance, repeatedly stating that they were only responsible for dealing with refugees, and were not responsible for helping to transport things, carry children, or carry the elderly.
Whoever owns the family is responsible for the people and things. This is something Bai Lizheng has repeatedly emphasized.
Of course, for the few families in the village where only the elderly, the weak, women and children are left, such as Bai Jingshan's family, Gu Wenxuan has arranged for them to have help other than the patrol team members in advance.
Especially Bai Jingshan's family. As Bai Jingzhou's number one younger brother, although Bai Jingshan is young, he has always been active in the front line of the battle. His family, Gu Wenxuan and Bai Jingzhou must of course take special care of them.
Therefore, Gu Wenxuan not only asked the Gu Xing family, who lived closer to his home, to take care of Bai Jingshan's grandmother, mother, and younger brothers and sisters, but also specially allocated an ox cart that she brought back from the farm to go there.
Bai Jingshan's family originally had an ox cart that he bought himself, and now with the one that Gu Wenxuan lent them, not only could they carry more things, but they could also allow his grandmother and sister to ride in the cart throughout the journey.
Under the command of the patrol team responsible for beating the gong, the villagers left the village one after another from the secret road in the woods at the end of the village that Gu Wenxuan and his team had specially opened up.
On the way, there were two patrol teams led by Gu Yongming and Jia Guizhi. One team was responsible for going forward to inquire and drive away the refugees wandering between Baijia Village and Jiajia Village in advance, and the other team was responsible for running back and forth on both sides of the fleeing team composed of villagers to guard against possible potential dangers.
Compared with them, Gu Wenxuan and others who withstood the greatest pressure were also facing the greatest crisis.
It has been mentioned before that Baijia Village has no strategic location to defend. Once the number of refugees increases, even if they kill all of them, the chances of defending the village will be slim.
Otherwise, Gu Wenxuan and Bai Jingzhou would not have marked out a safe area in advance, and repeatedly reminded the patrol team members that once the number of invading refugees exceeded a certain number, they should immediately ring the gong and notify the villagers to evacuate in the direction of Jiajia Village.
The patrol team members were very convinced of Gu Wenxuan and Bai Jingzhou, and they carried out their orders thoroughly.
Thanks to this, the time that Gu Wenxuan and his team had to intercept the refugees at the village entrance was greatly shortened.
In order to make an example of someone, Gu Wenxuan was ruthless from the beginning. Everyone felt that she was like a big tiger rushing into a flock of sheep. With a swing of the stick in her hand, the refugees who had been so aggressive before were knocked away one after another.
Those refugees who flew backwards bumped into other refugees following them, and other refugees bumped into more refugees behind them. One by one, they bumped into another, and soon, the refugees who had been crowded at the entrance of the village were completely cleared out by Gu Wenxuan, who had performed miracles with his great strength.
The pressure on the patrol team members responsible for guarding the village entrance was greatly reduced. With the help of Bai Jingzhou's medicinal powder and bows and arrows, they worked together to block the refugees who tried to enter the village from other directions.
At this moment, Bai Jingzhou no longer had time to pretend to be weak. He was the best archer in the village, and his archery skills always worked wonders when used with medicine powder.
In addition, he has a very sharp brain and is a top-notch support player, making him hard to beat.
Not only those patrol members, but even Gu Wenxuan, who seemed to be able to hold his own against ten thousand, often received help from him.
As for the Fang brothers, Bai Jingshan, Ning Qirui and others, as the top masters in the patrol team, they are all captains of their respective teams. They are not only responsible for commanding the members of their own teams to fight, but also responsible for protecting their personal safety at critical moments.
Thanks to their constant attention and timely assistance, although most of the patrol team members were injured, fortunately no one died in this sudden offensive and defensive battle.
Of course, the refugees were extremely hungry and had little strength, and their weapons were only sticks, hoes and the like, which was also an important reason why they did not die.
About a quarter of an hour after the gong sounded to remind the villagers to evacuate, Gu Wenxuan and Bai Jingzhou began to direct the patrol team members to shrink the defense line in a planned manner.
If they don't retreat, the refugees will break through their first line of defense and cause casualties among them.
Anyway, according to the requirements of their previous drills, the slowest villagers should have retreated to the middle and back half of the village by now.
They cleared the entrance to the village and vacated a few houses for the starving refugees, allowing them to go in and search for edibles. That way, the refugees would stop staring at their less tasty cousins.
Gu Wenxuan made a gesture, and the patrol team members began to respond to each other tacitly and retreated into the village in an orderly manner.
The archers led by Bai Jingzhou became the main force in the battle. While the front-line patrol team members retreated in an orderly manner, they started to work with the bows and arrows in their hands as quickly as possible.
No longer worrying about calculating the consumption of arrows, the archers' combat effectiveness immediately increased by at least two levels.
A large number of refugees were shot, and the refugee group, which had been charging very fiercely, became chaotic and disorderly again, and its speed slowed down unconsciously.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gu Wenxuan and other patrol team members fighting on the front line quickly retreated to the position where the archers originally stood.
As Gu Wenxuan and others retreated, the archers also withdrew to their second line in batches.
The crowd fought and retreated, and soon retreated to the middle of the village.
The two villagers who heard the noise outside saw several patrol members holding bows and arrows, and immediately shouted at them in a loud voice, "Erhei, Gou Wa, Zhuzi, hurry up and help us!"
The three people named by them were shocked. Erhei asked, "Didn't we ring the gong? Why are you still here?"
The male owners of the two families hurriedly packed up their things and replied to Erhei in unison, "Then we have to pack up too?"
The patrol team members were speechless when they heard what they said. They recognized that these two families were the ones who had refused to send people to join the patrol team and had not participated in the combat drills and retreat drills.
But the question is, even if they do not participate in combat drills and retreat drills, shouldn’t they also implement the basic requirement that has been repeated thousands of times by the patrol team members: “Pack up your things in advance and retreat immediately when you hear the gong”?
This is not for others, but for their own personal safety.
