Crossing the Unknown Country

The whole family quickly packed up their things. Life had to go on and everything had to be back to normal. They cleaned up the kitchen and bedroom first, so they could eat and sleep normally, and then slowly clean up other places. Their vegetable garden was trampled and the animals they raised were killed and taken away. This was the biggest loss for their family. Fortunately, Fu Manduo was on the roof, otherwise he would have been killed too.

There were bloodstains all over the yard. They were all hacked to death with knives. These things probably offset some of their anger, otherwise Su He felt that his house would be burned down.

The situation at the uncle's house was similar to theirs, and the house was in a mess. The villagers were crying because several families had lost relatives, and most of the people in the village were relatives, so they had to hold a funeral.

I thought about not fishing out the big rock in the well. It was a big rock in the yard, and I really couldn't fish it out. I could only wait until the water level dropped so that I could go down and fish it out.

The village chief came back from the town and said that there were no people in the town anymore and they couldn't do business. They could only rely on the mountains to eat and see if they could find some food and daily necessities from the mountains. As long as the war continued, they had to store food. As long as they had food, they could survive. Winter was coming soon, and the war should stop at that time. It would be more difficult to fight in winter at this time.

Winter is also the most difficult time for farmers. They don’t have enough food. If the war continues, the grain tax will have to be increased, and they will have even less food. Everyone has to find a way to survive the cold winter. The cotton at home is not ready yet, and the cotton clothes are not new. How to survive the winter is their biggest problem. If they really can’t do it, they have to go to the county, even if it’s far away, to solve the problem of winter clothes.

The village chief sighed at home, saying that life was really hard. There were constant wars in the border town, and their village was really dangerous. The enemy might come at any time. The village was not rich to begin with, and now the war was coming, every household in the village had a hard time. No one knew where the second and third families in their town had gone. Before the disaster, everyone could only flee.

When they arrived at the town and saw that there was no one there, and no ordinary people in the town had died, they felt relieved. At least when the war was over, the people in the town would come back, and everything would return to normal. But it was difficult for them to buy something now, as the town was empty.

The Dongjie Army outside Fenggu City has launched countless offensives, but there is no way to enter the city. Even the first outer city has not been conquered. Wanyan Ahan did not expect that Fenggu City would be so difficult to attack. During this period, his own military camp was burned down once. The masters sent by Ansheng Kingdom entered their camp and shot some tents with burning arrows, causing them to suffer a lot of losses.

Wang An is too cunning and doesn't fight head-on. Now the war is not going well for them. Winter is coming soon, and their soldiers will definitely not be able to wear single clothes. The rear needs a lot of supplies, and their Dongjie treasury is not full, so the war cannot last too long. They need to win this battle to get their own supplies so that they can survive the severe winter.

They had been challenging Wang An for a long time, hoping that he would send out his troops. In this way, they would have a great chance of winning. Wang An did not respond, but defended instead of attacked, which made them passive. They were not good at attacking cities, but only at hand-to-hand combat.

Wanyan Ahan was angry because he lost the battle again today! The weather was bad today, with strong winds blowing everywhere. In the evening, before it got dark, a group of dogs suddenly came down from the nearby mountains, dragging burning things behind them, and ran towards their military camp. The fire became more and more intense as they ran, and they ran faster and faster. Their military camp was nearby, and now it was autumn, the grass on the ground was dry and yellow and easy to ignite. Suddenly, the wind followed the fire, and the fire followed the wind, and the military camp was all on fire.

The soldiers rushed to put out the fire. The tents were made of cloth and could not be stopped when they caught fire. They caught fire immediately. The quilts and utensils inside were all flammable, and soon the fire turned into a sea of ​​fire. Wanyan Ahan could only lead his soldiers to flee back to the nearest border town, Langshan City.
