Crossing the Unknown Country

Su He knew that only by doing well now could his future wishes have hope of coming true.

The Ye family in the border town won a great victory with minimal casualties thanks to the resourcefulness of General Wang An. Only those in the Ye family who participated in the battle were injured, but no one died, which was lucky enough for them.

The Ye family has not yet fully risen here, so most of the people are still working. However, this war also gave the Ye family a chance to show off. They are all good archers, and their performance in this war was very eye-catching. On the city wall, he was praised by the captain, and he has reported it to General Wang An. By asking their family, he knew that the children of the Ye family were practicing martial arts to strengthen their bodies. The captain had already applied, and as long as the Ye family members were old enough to join the army, they would be directly recruited into the army and be freed from criminal records.

In this way, all the adult men of the Ye family joined the army, so that they could make achievements. The family also became much better. Originally, they only did some light work. This time, some copying and writing work was assigned to several elderly people in their family. The Ye family also gradually changed from being suppressed in every way when they first came to being appreciated by the superiors, and their treatment was improved.

Some people envied them for being valued by the higher-ups so quickly. What none of them knew was that all the literati in the family, except the children, had learned martial arts halfway through. Although they had learned the Six Arts before, they were just fancy moves. This time, they had to practice hard, squatting in horse stance every morning and evening, and later practicing boxing and archery. Almost all of their time was spent on learning martial arts. That's how they developed such accurate archery skills and self-defense boxing and kicking. Martial arts cannot be mastered overnight, so they could only practice archery first.

The younger brothers of Ye Jingchen practiced well. Ye Cheng especially liked Ye Jingchen. These children were able to endure hardships, squatted well in horse stance, and practiced their lower body very steadily. Given time, these children would become great talents, especially Jingchen, who was a rare martial arts genius. He could remember some moves at a glance, and could also find some flaws in the moves through sparring with others, which was much better than those children.

The future revival of the Ye family is expected to depend on him. After a few years of learning martial arts, he can go to the army to make a name for himself. Ye Cheng is very pleased. This way he can live up to his benefactor, the deceased old man of the Ye family.

The Ye family practiced martial arts every day, and the children from the neighboring families came over to watch with envy. The children from the Zhang family, who lived nearby, and the Hu family, who lived a little further away, who were not working, lay nearby and watched secretly.

Because Ye Cheng's household registration is not in their family, before the Ye family got into trouble, Ye Cheng was a free citizen and did not belong to their family. This time he came with them just to take care of their family. Ye Cheng does not have to work, so he has time to take them to practice martial arts. Ye Cheng is now respected as Master by the children of the Ye family. Once a teacher, always a father. Ye Cheng disagreed at first, but Jingchen's father asked the children to kowtow to the master directly, and the adults just followed him to learn, and no longer worshipped him.

At this time, the Ye family knew who was loyal, who were their relatives and friends, and their family was in trouble now, and only those who could stand up at this time were their relatives. There were not many people the Ye family could trust now. After looking at those children, it was Jingchen who suggested to his father to practice together. They were all suffering people, so if they could help, they should work together!

Jingchen's father thought for a while and agreed to let Ye Cheng teach these children together. These children have been together since childhood, and they may help each other in the future. He was really proud of Jingchen's suggestion this time. When these children grow up, they will follow him through life and death to create achievements. Because they grew up together, they can trust each other and can unconditionally give their backs to each other when fighting with the enemy. Ye Jingchen was able to become the general of the country in the end, and these brothers also made countless contributions and followed him to protect the territory.
