Wenren Chiba and Yao Qing didn't return home until midnight, and Yao Huang brought the food that had been hot on the stove to the two, and the two quickly settled dinner before they had the leisure to tell what happened to them in the city.

The two countries were about to go to war, and cities like Anping County, which was close to the border, were the first to be affected, and a large number of troops had already entered Anping County, and now the city was under martial law, and entry and exit were strictly censored. Even so, it can't put an end to the scouts of enemy countries. After hearing that the two of them had bought the items, they encountered the official government to arrest the enemy spies and close the city gate, so that the two could not go out of the city and go home. Afraid that the three in the house were worried, in the middle of the night, Wenren Qianye took advantage of the lax spirit of the city defenders to take Yao Qing out of the city with light skills.

"I'm afraid that the war will start soon." Smell people Chiba combined with what he saw and heard today.

"Then we must quickly notify the village chief and uncle, and organize the villagers to transport the grain up the mountain as soon as possible." Yao Hongdao.

"Well, I'll go to the village chief early tomorrow morning." Smell people Chiba Road.

"It's night, everyone rest first." Yao Huang saw that his little brother kept yawning, and his eyes were almost open, so he reminded the two big ones.

"Yes, yes, rest first. We'll wait until tomorrow. Yao Hong nodded hurriedly, drove the little brother back to the room to sleep, and pulled Wenren Qianye back to the room.

When he got up the next day, Yao Huang was subjected to Xiaoke Baozi's cold and violent protest. No matter how Yao Huang teased him and apologized to him, Xiao Baozi resolutely did not speak to Yao Huang.

"You girl, you are very unreliable in doing things, you even ordered Xiao Ke's sleeping hole, he deserves to ignore you." Yao Hong poked Xi Yao Huang's head, but she didn't blame her in her heart. Zhilu said that Yao Huang is for the sake of small buns.

"Children just need to sleep and eat more in order to grow taller. I'm thinking about him. Yao Huang grinned.

"Second sister. Xiao Ke can say that you hurt his pure little heart. Yao Qing jumped out.

"It's okay, I'll make delicious egg dumplings tonight. It should be able to make up for his little mind. ”

Yao Qing's saliva came down, "Second sister, second sister, my heart is also hurt, you can compensate me!" ”

"Stay on which side it's cool!"

The village chief uncle was also anxious when he heard the words of Chiba, and organized the villagers to transport grain up the mountain early the next morning. Only some old people and young children were left, and the others followed the village chief up the mountain. Each villager carried a basket full of heavy grain. Children as old as Yao Qing and Erhuzi were responsible for driving cattle, pigs, sheep, donkeys, and mules into the mountains. The girls are in charge of poultry such as chickens and ducks. The village chief had a clear space in the cave made of wood for the purpose of raising poultry and livestock, although it was a little crowded, it was better than staying in the house and not knowing when the displaced people and defeated soldiers who had broken into the village were killed and eaten.

The group meandered along, and a path was trodden out of the mountains. When the operation is over, the village chief will send someone to cover the path, so that no one will discover the existence of the cave in the direction of the path. Fortunately, the jungle in the mountains is dense with wild grasses, and it is not easy to find the existence of the trail if you cover it.

The movement to transport grain into the mountains was carried out one after another for half a month. Except for the first day of action with the whole village to transport a small amount of grain, the Yao family did not participate in the next day. Other families are not like Yao Huang in the Yao family, and they all want to transport the food to the mountains to the maximum extent, leaving only a small part to maintain daily consumption at home. This kind of work cannot be done in a day or two. Except for grain. The villagers also prepared daily necessities such as salt, sugar, soy sauce, pots and pans, quilts and other supplies to go up the mountain. If the outcasts and the defeated army are too rampant, the villagers will take refuge in the mountains.

The situation is becoming more and more tense, and Anping County has been put under full martial law. The people in the city can only go out and not enter, from the mouth of Li Yunxi, who came back from the city. As everyone knows, the shops in the city are almost half-closed, and many things are difficult to buy. Especially for food, no amount of money can buy food. Li Yunxi also said that the war had started in the west, and the battle situation was not very ideal, and some defeated troops had fled to Anping County for help. A group of troops were stationed in Anping County before the start of the war, and after receiving the news of the rescue, the army set off for the battlefield. On the way, we passed through Qingshui Village, where there was no official road, and the army and the loads all passed through the villagers' fields. After the army passed, Yao Huang and the villagers went outside the village to take a look, and all the corn that was almost one meter high had been trampled to the ground, and the losses of sweet potato fields and potato fields were also very heavy. The villagers were heartbroken, these were all grain, and they were wasted in vain: the corn had just set head, and the sweet potatoes and potatoes were not yet the size of pigeon's eggs, and even if they were replanted, they would no longer be able to grow. Fortunately, the first two years were not bad, and my family saved more food, otherwise I wouldn't be hungry in the future?

After the army passed, refugees fled to the area of Anping County one after another, and refugees also appeared near Qingshui Village. At the beginning of the war, these refugees did not dare to be too presumptuous, so there was no looting of food. Disagreements arose between the refugees, who dug up small sweet potatoes and small potatoes from the fields outside the village to make food, and some of the refugees decided to go to Anping County to seek protection from the government. The walls of Anpyeong County were so high that it was safer to stay inside the city than outside the city after the enemy army came over. Some of the refugees decided to hide in the mountains, where there were wild beasts, but there was also food, at least so that they would not go hungry.

The refugees only stayed outside Qingshui Village for half a day before leaving, much to the relief of the village chief and the villagers. Thinking that this is only the first batch, there will be a second and third batch in the future...... A large number of refugees passed by, for the safety of the whole village, the village chief organized all the young and middle-aged men, each of them issued a strong bow, and took turns to patrol the periphery of the village, which was very deterrent to the later refugees, so that they did not dare to enter the village to loot food, and could only take a detour to Anping County.

The armed villagers had a deterrent effect on the refugees, but it did little to the arrogant officers and soldiers, who did not believe that the muddy shoes would dare to oppose the officers and soldiers. They did guess that the villagers could kill wild boars and animals, but they did not dare to kill people, and the refugees did not dare to conflict with them because they were afraid, so that these young adults did not really see blood.

After spending two months in defense and fear, the news from the battlefield became more and more bad, and the Great Zhou Dynasty fought seven battles with the Xia State, each time defeated, with countless casualties among officers and soldiers, and even casualties among high-ranking generals. The village chief and Zeng Auntie, whose children went to the battlefield, were worried that their children would die on the battlefield. The atmosphere in the village was very depressed for a while.

Wenren Qianye came forward to comfort everyone at this time, and he told everyone: Zhao Erniu and Zeng Qinghua, newly recruited soldiers, will not be thrown into the battlefield so quickly, they must be trained in the military camp for a period of time, and they will be put on the battlefield when they have a certain lethality. Therefore, the young people who have left the village should not be in the army at the front.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts were temporarily put down. Who is Chiba, a respected master, and his knowledge is not comparable to those of them who are uneducated, what he said must be right.

Wenren Qianye told Yao Huang his guess: The troops in front are now the armies led by various families, and the emperor sent them to be cannon fodder. As for the young people Zhao Erniu and Zeng Qinghua, they were recruited by the emperor, and they belonged to the emperor's army, and the emperor would not send them to consume them now.

Yao Huang admires the current emperor, who is a natural emperor. But it's only limited to admiration, she doesn't have much curiosity about the emperor, and she doesn't want to learn from some women who travel through the palace to have a court love, a golden branch or something.

Soon after, the army began to rout in Anping County, and this defeated army was much more fierce than the outcasts, not only robbing things, but also killing people and setting fires, and several villages were already burned down by them.

When the defeated soldiers came to the outside of Qingshui Village, a few young men with bows and arrows on their backs were not taken seriously by them at all. Glancing at Zhao Dali contemptuously, the young man on the horse said coldly, "Dare to go against the officers and soldiers and look for death." ”

"My lord, we don't dare to go against you, it's just that there is really no food in the village, and the few displaced people in front of us have already grabbed almost all the food. Believe it or not, you see, the sweet potatoes and potatoes in this field have been dug up by the displaced people, and nothing is left for us. Zhao Dali was honest on the outside, and what he said sounded very credible, and no one knew that he was lying. There was a group of defeated troops in front of him, but they believed his words and did not enter the village. This time, though, it doesn't seem to be so easy.

The young man's gaze swept over the bows and arrows behind several people and their faces, and said coldly, "No food? So your face is still so ruddy? Do you look like you're hungry? You're carrying bows and arrows to protect the village and keep people from entering, right? ”

Zhao Dali's heart suddenly suddenly, he didn't expect the head of this defeated soldier to be so smart, he could see the situation of the village from their appearance, and couldn't help but take a step back.

The young man squinted his eyes, and it seemed that as he expected, this village was not simple, and there should be a lot of grain in it. In fact, this group of people was not a defeated army, but followed the young people to collect grain and grass. A flash of murderous intent flashed across the young man's face, and he shouted sharply; "Attacking officers and soldiers with weapons is like rebellion. Kill them for me! ”

"Wronged ......" Zhao Dali's grievances were interrupted by the young man's shouting, "Release the arrow!" ”

A feather arrow hit Zhao Dali's left shoulder, and the sharp pain made him react.

"Run, everyone!" Zhao Dali let out a loud howl, turned around and ran back towards the village. Several other young people also reacted and followed Zhao Dali to the village, shouting as they ran, "The officers and soldiers have killed someone!" Officers and soldiers have killed! (To be continued......)
