Everyone started talking at this time, and they were amazed at Jin Dong's strength. Su Yue watched this scene with a smile, then cleared her throat, and everyone immediately quieted down.

"Next, all the men come out and see if they can defeat Honeysuckle."

As soon as Su Yue finished speaking, the men in the tower looked at each other. Although they were a little hesitant, they still stood up under Su Yue's gaze.

They were amazed at Honeysuckle's strength, but also a little unwilling to accept it. They wanted to see if they could defeat this seemingly thin but powerful little girl.

Honeysuckle looked at the dozen or so burly men in front of her, including her father and brothers.

A hint of nervousness flashed across Honeysuckle's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination. She took a deep breath and got ready.

"Uncles, aunts, and brothers, please feel free to come over."

Ye Mei said distressedly: "Everyone, please be gentle, she is still a child."

When everyone heard Ye Mei's words, they were slightly moved, but Su Yue asked them to use all their strength to fight against Rendong.

Although the men didn't understand Su Yue's intention, they still exchanged glances and rushed forward. Some punched, some kicked, and attacked Jin Dong from all directions.

With her great strength, Ren Dong blocked and pushed back some of the attacks. However, she didn't know martial arts, and faced with the siege of the crowd, she gradually felt a little tired.

Liu Danan seized the opportunity and pounced on Ren Dong from behind. Ren Dong was unable to react and fell to the ground. But she quickly turned over and pushed Liu Danan away.

Liu Danan fell hard on his butt, his face twisted in pain. This little girl doesn't feel sorry for her brother at all.

Others took the opportunity to surround her, and Honeysuckle could only hold on by relying on her instinctive reaction and great strength.

Honeysuckle gritted her teeth and stubbornly resisted the attacks of the crowd. Sweat continued to flow down her face, but her eyes were still full of stubbornness.

The crowd watching in the tower watched the duel nervously, and couldn't help but worry for Rendong.

After a fierce battle, more than a dozen men and Honeysuckle were already exhausted and panting, their faces flushed, sweat pouring down their faces, and even their clothes were soaked with sweat.

Su Yue asked Liu Cui and Liu Xiaomei to prepare more salt and sugar water so that everyone could replenish water while resting.

Although Ren Dong was exhausted at this time, she still did not get defeated by the men. She stood there, breathing heavily, her eyes full of pride and complacency. Humph, who said that women are inferior to men?

Su Yue felt that it was almost done, so she clapped her hands and said, "Okay, that's it. Thank you for your hard work."

As soon as Su Yue finished speaking, heartbroken Nanny Yang and Ye Mei hurried over to take Rendong to change clothes. Liu Cui and Liu Xiaomei also came over with a large pot of salt and sugar water for everyone to drink.

After Su Yue and the others drank the salt and sugar water, they said again: "Just now, you also felt the strength of Honeysuckle. Honeysuckle's strength is equivalent to a dozen of you.

If there were a few hundred bandits or villagers, or a thousand soldiers coming to attack the tower, you would be dead if you were like this now."

Zhong Tie's wife felt a little weak at the knees when she heard this, "But girl, Ren Dong's strength is natural, no matter how much we practice, we can't catch up with her.

Even if we can train as well as Honeysuckle, if tens of thousands of bandits or soldiers come to attack the tower, we can only wait for death."

The others also felt that what Zhong Tie's wife said made sense. No matter how they practiced, they could not fight against so many people. Suddenly, everyone was a little worried and at a loss about the future danger.

Su Yue said slowly: "I think everyone knows that I invited Uncle Zhong and his family to live in the tower to build bows and arrows to fight against large numbers of enemies.

As for the enemies in small numbers, I will also give you big swords. When the time comes, the women and girls will stay at home with the swords to guard the children, and the men will follow me out to chop them up. Do you think this requires practice?

Also, you need to be in good physical condition to use this kind of weapon. Don’t let your arms become sore after shooting a few arrows, or be so frightened by seeing hundreds of enemies that your whole body becomes weak and limp. Then what’s the point of building the tower?”

After hearing this, everyone nodded. Su Yue's words made them realize the seriousness of the problem and understand the importance of training.

"The girl is right. We have to train well so that we can have the ability to fight back when the time comes." Li Shan said loudly with a serious expression.

"Yes, we must protect our families and not let the tower be threatened in any way." Seeing that his father had spoken, Liu Danan also echoed.

Seeing this, others also agreed and Zhong Tie's wife stopped arguing.

Su Yue looked at everyone's high morale and nodded with satisfaction.

She turned to look at Song Mingtao and said, "Uncle Song, please go to Xiaohe Village with Uncle Liu tonight. Ask the village doctor and his family if they want to move into the enclosure? They will be treated the same as everyone else."

Song Mingtao understood what Su Yue meant, but he was a little worried and asked, "What if the doctor disagrees?"

Su Yue smiled and said firmly: "He will agree." Then she looked at Song Mingtao with a meaningful look.

Song Mingtao was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "Okay, I understand."

As night fell, the extremely hot temperature seemed to drop a lot. Su Yue felt that even at night it was still around 30 degrees.

At this time, the lights in the tower were bright, and everyone began their night activities according to the new schedule.

After dinner and resting for half an hour, Su Yue called everyone to start jogging around the first-floor patio.

On the first day, Su Yue didn't let everyone run for too long, just the time it took to run for a cup of tea.

Running for just a cup of tea was acceptable to everyone, young or old, male or female, so everyone finished the run lazily.

Seeing this, Su Yue did not say that everyone was running irregularly or too slowly. Anyway, it was good enough to be able to run at the beginning. She could plan other things after they gradually got used to it.

After resting for a while, Su Yue ordered the men to fetch water and make sure the reservoirs and water tanks were filled with water, and also to cut more grass as fodder for the cattle and horses.

All the girls went to the ice room to make ice. Now that it was really hot, the consumption of ice was very high and the workload in the ice room was also very heavy.

As for the ladies, Su Yue asked Nanny Yang to get some rolls of fine gauze and lead the ladies to start making special summer clothes for their families.

Because the ancients had more feudal ideas, Su Yue designed a set of clothes that they could accept.

The vest and shorts are made of breathable cotton cloth, and the arms and below the knees are all made of breathable gauze. During extremely hot periods, wearing such clothes will at least prevent you from getting heat stroke.

For conservative women, this kind of clothes is okay for men to wear, but they still dare not wear it.
