Chapter 584: Temporary Tranquility

On the battlefield every day, there are wounded and killed.

The sad mood could not be allowed to linger in his heart for too long, and Bai Dazhuang took Liu Fugui and continued to run to the city wall to transport the wounded soldiers.

Bai Dazhuang looked at the sturdy city wall, listened to the agitated fighting outside the city wall, and was very homesick, thinking of his sister, and Xie Chuntao.

I don't know if the family knows the news that Ning Cheng is fighting now, if they do, they must be very worried about themselves, the second brother and the fifth brother.

He felt that the people of Shenshu Village he brought were safe for the time being, thanks to his sister's blessing and the courageous resistance of the front-line soldiers.

Bai Dazhuang was only looking forward to the arrival of reinforcements.

Although he didn't understand military affairs, he also knew that the Northwest Army was trapped in Ningcheng alone, and he didn't know how long he could defend it.

And Rong Guo mobilized the whole country with iron determination this time, and wave after wave of people were sent to the front line, and wave after wave impacted the defense line of the Northwest Army.

When Bai Dazhuang was carrying the wounded soldiers, he saw that the young child soldiers of Rong Kingdom were either killed or wounded.

He hated and sighed.

As an ordinary rural villager, he didn't understand why the good days of the powerful people of the Rong Kingdom were just why they wanted to go to war, and why they wanted to seize the border cities of the Xia Kingdom.

Not only did the young warriors of the Xia Kingdom die in battle like Da Mao, but those young warriors of the Rong Kingdom were also the younger brothers of the eldest brother of their parents' sons, and they disappeared into the wind and snow silently, and they didn't know the meaning of the war launched by the Rong State.

Bai Dazhuang couldn't figure it out.

All he knew was that he wanted to live a peaceful life.

At first, he was forced to go home and participate in the war, but now he is actively involved, because he knows that only by winning this battle can he live a peaceful life.

If you lose the battle......

Xia Qinghe said that if the war is defeated, the land will be ceded and reparated.

What's more serious is that the Rong Kingdom will start a war and go south, and every boy in the Xia Kingdom may have to go to the battlefield at that time.

When the time comes, Shenshu Village will be baptized by the flames of war, with men going to war, and women weaving and farming at home to supply the front line.

No one is having a good time.

Grandmother worked hard all her life to be raised in her old age, her parents and children and grandchildren were around her knees, her sister and children and nephews caught up with the good life of the family, and the fourth brother was starting a prosperous life in the capital...... Such days must not be ruined by war.

With this belief, Bai Dazhuang devoted himself to helping the wounded, and although his personal strength was very weak, he had to do his best.

"Big brother."

Bai Zhaomei stood on the city wall and saw Bai Dazhuang, and shouted excitedly.

Since the start of the war, Bai Zhaomei has always been on the front line, and it has been their turn to defend the city in the past two days.

He has been on guard for two days and two nights, and his whole person is dirty and he can't see his face clearly.

These days, I always have a string in my head, and I don't have time to think about it.

He didn't even know what was going on with the big brother.

Seeing that the eldest brother was mixed in with the people and carrying the wounded soldiers, Bai Zhaomei was not surprised at all, he knew that his eldest brother would not dodge.

"Fifth brother." Bai Dazhuang beckoned to Bai Zhaomei.

He found that the fifth brother's arm was wrapped in bandages.

Although I was distressed, I was also glad that the fifth brother was only injured in the arm.

"How are you?" Bai Dazhuang pointed to Bai Zhaomei's arm.

"It's okay big brother." Bai Zhaomei nodded, "Big brother, you have to take care." ”

"Fifth brother, we will win, you have to be careful." Bai Dazhuang shouted.

At this time, someone called Bai Zhaomei, the brothers didn't say anything more, Bai Zhaomei gave a sergeant salute to Bai Dazhuang and hurried back.

From morning to dusk, he and his comrades had repelled two waves of enemy attacks.

The enemy suffered heavy casualties, and piles of corpses were piled up outside the city walls, covered in wind and snow.

Bai Dazhuang didn't have time to take another look at the fifth brother, and bent down to carry a wounded soldier to the car, but fortunately, the soldier was not seriously injured, and Bai Dazhuang felt a little comforted in his heart.

As he approached the aid point, he heard a burst of cheers from the city walls.

"We held the walls." The wounded soldier said to Bai Dazhuang.

Bai Dazhuang felt the haze above his head tear a small opening.

"I don't know if the enemy will come again, it's about to be the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, so we have to eat a bowl of dumplings." The wounded soldier stared at the drifting snow and muttered to himself.

Time flies so fast, is it almost the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve?

After the enemy was repulsed this time, he did not continue to attack Ningcheng for several days.

But no one dares to take it lightly, after all, the battle between the two countries must be brought to an end.

……

"The Rong Kingdom has not come to attack the city in the past few days, can this battle be fought or not?"

Bai Dazhuang and others were busy under the city wall, beating glutinous rice and cement putty, and they were busy repairing the city wall that was blown up by the Rong State.

"It's going to have to be fought." Bai Dazhuang said.

Now it's just a temporary peace.

After fighting for so many days, Ningcheng couldn't attack for a long time, not to mention countless casualties, and Rongguo also needed to rest and adjust the battle plan.

However, the reinforcements on the border of Xia were delayed, and they could only defend passively, but they could not carry out a large-scale counteroffensive.

The two sides are stuck like this.

If either side of Xia Rong and the other side catches the other, it will set off a new round of war and annihilate the other party in one fell swoop.

"I heard that the other party sent peace conditions, and General Meng tore them up on the spot." Zhao Xiaogui came up and told him the news he got from nowhere.

"Peace?" Bai Dazhuang said, "How can you negotiate peace? ”

Since General Meng tore up the agreement on peace, it is certain that the terms of peace are a humiliation for Xia Guo.

Cut the city? Na New Year's coins? And pro?

There's definitely one for everyone.

General Meng has guarded the northwest border for many years, and the cities invaded by the Rong State have been beaten back by him one by one, and now let him cut the city and discuss what he can do?

Nai Sui coin is a method, anyway, Xia is a vast country, and one-tenth of the annual tax can be exchanged for border peace.

But that was only temporary, the previous dynasty was not to pay for the New Year's currency in exchange for peace, but over time it raised the appetite of the neighboring countries, from asking for New Year's coins to plundering the population of the city.

As for the pro?

Bai Dazhuang didn't understand, wasn't the current queen mother who met King Jing when she was at the border with her relatives.

In Bai Dazhuang's heart, he couldn't bear to exchange women for peace on the border.

Especially since he has a sister, he can't bear to see innocent women being implicated in the war, although those women who are close to him have nothing to do with him.

But none of that was his concern.

"The battle is over quickly, I want to go home." Hanwa said.

The desire to go home is the belief that underpins these young men in Shenshu Village.

Since the beginning of the war, everyone has endured patience, enduring wind and snow, enduring cold, enduring blood, and enduring hardship......

All patience is for the sake of going home.

"I'll be home soon." Bai Dazhuang said such things every day.

Cheer up your peers and cheer yourself up as well.

It's almost time to go home.

Bai Dazhuang smeared the bricks and stones with cement mixed with glutinous rice juice and built them on the gap that was taken out by Rong Guo.

The snow had stopped, but there was no sun and the air was quiet.

It's as if the war of the other day was in a dream.
