    Before Chen Xi could speak, Fan Kuai said carelessly: "A few young bandits shouldn't be so nervous. These wines can't hinder me, Old Fan." Chen Xi smiled and said: "Brother Fan has a lot of people. When we get to Pengcheng, I will invite you all to Pengcheng.  The most famous Huibin Building, I¡¯ll have a drink then. ¡°Brother Ding just said it is true, the bandits will come tonight, so I¡¯ll keep this wine in mind for now.¡± Chen Xi glanced at the dark reed swamp to the south and said calmly.  : "I bet that there are bandits' spies in the reeds at this time, and they are checking our actions. Everyone should be more careful and prepare early." Seeing Wang Huang's color change, Chen Xi smiled slightly and said, "There are some bandits."  "There is nothing to worry about."  There are three hundred crossbows at such a close distance. Even if there are thousands of bandits, what can they do to me?" Ding Fu also smiled easily and said: "If the bandits attack by surprise, they will definitely come out of the reeds. Our car?  The front of the formation facing the reeds is not big. The bandits facing us can only have one or two hundred people at most. Three hundred bows and crossbows will fire. After a few rounds, at least hundreds of bandits will be killed or injured. We are scared of the remaining bandits.  ?¡± After hearing what Chen Xi and Ding Fu said, Wang Huang, Manqiuchen, Hou Chang, Jin She, Zhang Chun and others only looked calmer, but they did not speak. Zhou Bo also looked as usual.  Fan Kuai, who was still sitting on the ground, was holding the wine jar and pouring the remaining sake into the copper horn in his hand. He said in a rough voice: "Brother Ding is saying that Lieutenant Lu and my eldest brother have already made arrangements. If the robbers  If you dare to come, I, Fan Kuai, will make sure they never come back." Zhu Zhen grinned. He and this Fan Kuai had a good temper. When they were drinking, the two of them had been chatting enthusiastically. At this time, they were about to agree, but they were stopped.  Wang Zhou glared and Zhu Zhen History 2 shut up.  Seeing that everyone had been stabilized, Chen Xi raised his head. Manchuchen, who was sitting next to him, stood up quickly, called over a dozen people, went to several carts behind him, unloaded dozens of boxes, and opened them, which were filled with bows.  Crossbow arrows.  Several village chiefs stood up and prepared to gather their men to receive the crossbows. Fan Kuai also drank down every drop of the wine in the copper horn, then put down the copper horn and stood up.  "Wait a minute." Ding Fu stopped everyone, turned to Chen Xi and said, "Brother Chen, there are bandits peeping in the reed swamps, so we have to collect the crossbows one by one, so as not to alert the bandits." Chen Xi smiled slightly and said, "  Brother Ding is overly worried. The dozens of bonfires lit on the road are just enough to enchant the eyes. Through the fires in the reed marsh, the bandits can't see what's going on here." Ding Fu turned to look at the reed marsh, and sure enough.  , I could only see clearly the section from the car array to the fire.  In his heart, Ding Fu couldn't help but secretly admire Chen Xi's thoughtfulness.  Chen Xi then told everyone what they should do to meet the enemy if bandits attacked at night, and then walked back to the inner circle to rest.  It¡¯s night, and the north wind is gradually picking up. The large reeds in Zhaoyang Daze, which are divided into strips by the lake fork and river bay, make a ¡°squeaking¡± sound with the rising and falling of the wind.  The bonfires lit on the dirt road set off bright flames in the night wind. Looking from the camp, the reeds looked increasingly darker.  After the third watch, Chen Xi, who was sleeping undressed in the boxcar, was quietly awakened by the night guard, who told him that there was a noise in the reed marsh to the south, as if there were many people.  Chen Xi did not dare to neglect, grabbed the iron sword that he always carried with him, opened the curtain and got out of the box car.  The cold north wind blew against his face, Chen Xi could not help but feel excited, and his mind immediately sobered up.  Seeing Ding Fu running over from a distance, Chen Xi jumped out of the car and ordered people to quickly invite a few temporary village chiefs. He himself met Ding Fu, and the two of them rushed to the outer circle of vehicles.  Leaning against the shafts of the outer car formation, Chen Xun, Ding Fu and others listened carefully. There was indeed something strange in the reeds rustling in the wind.  Although the sounds were very soft, they were definitely not the sounds made by the wind blowing the reeds. Both of them could tell that there was a large group of people walking quietly in the reeds, probably more than a thousand people.  Chen Xi and Ding Fu couldn't help but secretly take a breath, but the worry only faded away on Chen Xi's face.  Chen Xi sneered, turned around and said to several village chiefs: "Arrange the troops in formation, and later we will let these bandits who do not know life or death know what I, Wanju Chen Xi, are doing."  Almost all of the adults below have served in the military for a long or short time and have received military training.  In addition, not long after Qin destroyed Chu, many Chu people participated in the battle between Chu army and Qin army.  Therefore, at this time, it can be said that all young people in various countries have received military training, and now everyone is truly a soldier.  This is also the reason why in the future, after Chen Sheng rises up, the rebel army will be able to confront the famous Qin army head-on in a short time.??, not to mention one of the reasons for giving too much.  Although these guards and Peixian coachmen are not in the army at this time, they have not forgotten the rules of the army.  After several village chiefs received the news, they were all awakened one by one and quietly arrayed themselves with weapons without any confusion.  Soon, these people were quietly taken to designated positions by their respective village commanders to stand ready.  Chen Xi's arrangement was that, except for Jin She and Zhu Zhen's cavalry troops preparing to attack, the south side of Fan Kuai's defensive car formation was facing the side of the reed swamp, and the other five troops all held crossbows and lined up in the inner and outer circle car towns facing the reed swamp.  Formation, ready to focus on shooting the bandits rushing out of the reeds.  The other three sides of the wilderness can be seen very far in the moonlight. In the first round of sneak attacks, the possibility of bandits coming from those three sides is very small. Chen Xi only sent a few people to monitor them for the time being.  Although the merchants had already hid in the inner circle of vehicles, Chen Xi would not let their coachmen idle. They were all organized and prepared to transport the wounded from the arrows.  The rustling sound in the reed marsh lasted for a long time before it slowly stopped. It seemed that all the bandits who had secretly stolen from the reed marsh were already in place.  In the car formation, more than four hundred temporary soldiers were holding bows and crossbows, either standing in rows in the car formation, or crouching in rows on the cart, with swords and halberds placed at their feet.  It's just that the several village chiefs standing in front of their respective formations were eagerly gearing up and seemed a little impatient.  Looking at these people, Chen Xi could not help but feel a surge of heroic spirit in his heart. 1 Chen Xi secretly sighed in his heart that he was not born at the right time.  .  .  .  .  .  It¡¯s been half an hour, it¡¯s already.  .  At this time, the noise in the reeds suddenly became louder, and the rushing sound was obviously that many people started to move around.  Chen Xi, who was leaning on the shaft of a large cart and looking out, suddenly raised his hand. The soldiers of the Sixth Tunnel who were waiting in formation behind them all stood up amidst the low shouts of their respective commanders. Following a low voice of command, the soldiers  They started to wind the string, and the gleaming arrow cluster pointed steadily at the dark reeds behind the fire.  .  .  .  .  .
