Chapter 295 The enemy is coming

"Yan Ming hasn't come back yet?" Wu Fan stood at the head of the village, looking at the busy people in the stone quarry, and asked Zheng Xiaoliu beside him.

Whether it is building a city wall or building a house, the demand for stone is very large, so most of those who came to seek refuge were arranged to collect stone in the mine, and the remaining few went to cut trees and develop earthwork.

As a novice village, the Hermit Village naturally has a stone mine. Although it is not a rich mine, there is still a lot of stone reserves. What's more, there are mountains in front and behind the Hermit Village, and there are stones on the mountains. Therefore, although Wu Fan needs a lot of stones, he can still be self-sufficient.

"Not yet." Zheng Xiaoliu said on the side.

Since knowing that there is an uprising army team active near the county town, Wu Fan asked Zheng Xiaoliu and others to go back and bring their families to the Hermit Village. In the past few days, Zheng Xiaoliu and others have returned with their families one after another, only Yan Ming has not been seen so far.

Yan Ming's home is the farthest from the Hermit Village, and it takes the longest time to go back and forth. However, after so many days, and with the carriage rented from the grocery store, he should have returned, but he has not returned yet.

"Will there be any accidents on the road?" Wang Bing on the side said with a little worry.

Everyone is not worried that Yan Ming will not come back after returning home. They are now friends of life and death, and following Wu Fan is much better than farming at home, so Yan Ming will definitely come back.

However, after so many days, there is no news about Yan Ming, which cannot help but make people worried. After all, the world is not peaceful on the road now. There are rebels, monsters, and wandering demons. There are all kinds of dangers. Wang Bing and others have encountered some dangers on the way back and forth, but fortunately, they have avoided them.

"Wait and see, if he doesn't come back today, you can go to his village to take a look." Wu Fan said.

"Yes." Several people responded.

However, before Wu Fan asked Zheng Xiaoliu and others to go to Yan Ming's village to check the situation, Luo Yang and Lu Bin came back, and in their carriage, there was another person who surprised Wu Fan.

This person was Yan Ming!

However, Yan Ming was not in good condition at this time. He was pale and weak, and there were bloodstains on his clothes. He was half lying in the carriage, looking exhausted.

And beside Yan Ming, there were a few people Wu Fan didn't know. They looked at Yan Ming worriedly from time to time, and secretly looked at Wu Fan who came over from time to time, with panic expressions.

"What's the matter? Why are you together? What's wrong with Yan Ming?" Wu Fan asked hurriedly.

"Sir!" Yan Ming looked much better when he saw Wu Fan. He said to Wu Fan excitedly, "The rebel army is not far from here! They will be here soon!"

Yan Ming's words startled the people at the scene. Wu Fan asked hurriedly, "How did you know?"

"On the way back with my family, I happened to meet the rebel army. I didn't rush back and followed them to see where they were going. Who knew that they were heading in this direction? I wanted to come back and tell you, sir, but I didn't want to be discovered by them. A team was chasing us. Fortunately, we met Luo Yang and Lu Bin, and my family and I were saved." Yan Ming said a little hurriedly.

Wu Fan's face changed slightly. He didn't expect that the rebel army was actually coming here. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, they had to be prepared to meet the enemy.

However, Wu Fan originally thought that the area around Qingyuan County was so large that the team might not come to the Hermit Village. Even if they did, it would take some time. He did not expect that they would come so soon.

The incident happened very suddenly, but the other party would obviously not retreat, let alone come with good intentions, so Wu Fan had to be prepared to meet the enemy.

"How many people do they have? What are their weapons and equipment? How far are they from here? When will they arrive? Do you know who the leader is?" Wu Fan asked repeatedly.

"The team has about four to five thousand people, about half of them are young and strong, with few weapons, swords, hoes, and sticks, and almost no protective gear. They are not far from here, and they will be here in about one or two hours. As for who the leader is, I don't know, I only see that he is a middle-aged man with a burly figure and a fierce face." Yan Ming reported the intelligence he observed one by one.

Wu Fan was somewhat relieved. Fortunately, Yan Ming chose to follow the other party after discovering this team. Only then did he know this information and knew in advance that the other party would attack here, so that they had time to prepare and would not be caught off guard.

According to the news reported by Yan Ming, Wu Fan and his team were in a bad situation. The other party had a large number of people, with two to three thousand young and strong men. Their strength should not be underestimated. Fortunately, this insurgent team was similar to other insurgent teams, that is, they were very short of weapons and protective gear, which gave Wu Fan hope. If this insurgent team was armed to the teeth, then Wu Fan would not think about how to resist, but to quickly flee with his men.

After all, there were only more than a hundred militiamen on their side. Even if those refugees were involved in the battle, their number was much less than that of the other side.

Wu Fan looked up at the sun. Fortunately, it should be around three o'clock in the afternoon in one or two hours. He still had time. If they arrived later, he would be teleported back to reality and would not be able to participate in the battle.

"Luo Yang, take Yan Ming to Pharmacist Li for treatment. Wang Bing, call back the people in front of the village. While there is still some time, dig some more traps. Niu Er, gather the militia, put on all the equipment, and prepare for battle!" Wu Fan ordered one by one with a serious face.

"Yes!" Everyone said in unison, their voices firm, without any panic.

They had experienced battles with monsters together, fought against the army of the demon world, and also fought against the rebel army. It can be said that they had experienced many dangerous situations before. Although the current situation is a bit bad, everyone who has combat experience does not feel much fear at this time.

They are Wu Fan's personal soldiers!

Wherever Wu Fan is, they are there!

Even in the face of dangerous situations, they will stand firmly in front of Wu Fan, as Wu Fan's last shield, to help him block all dangers!

Under Wu Fan's command, the entire Hermit Village started to run like a machine.
