Start Ancient: Take your family and lie down in the natural disaster to win
Chapter 389 389 Can’t bear it
What they saw before them made soldiers from all over the world despair. What were they fighting for with all their strength?
But now the situation in the ancient Yan country surprised them. It was completely different from what they imagined. The plague was even more severe than their country.
The purpose of invading Gu Yan was to rob food so that his country and family could survive.
Not to mention food, there was not even a millet pole in sight. There were corpses wherever they could see. They didn't dare to lean on it for too long, and they even covered their mouths and noses tightly. At this moment, there was no way out. They wanted to The only way to find food is to look for the traces of living people and move forward. The remaining food is no longer enough to keep them going back.
In a short period of time since the beginning of the war, all the four border cities in the southeast, northwest and northwest of Gu Yan that were used to resist foreign enemies were destroyed, and the crazy enemy troops swarmed in.
The common people who got the news in advance were panicked and instinctively followed the defeated soldiers who reported the news and fled towards the nearest city or the center of power.
At this moment, a large number of refugees, even if they were tortured by illness and hunger, still used all their strength to escape from the border town in order to survive, and then scattered like headless flies.
As long as there is a way, go. Anyway, you can't stay where you are, and the end is only death.
The Yicheng conquered by the Beicang Kingdom of the Northern Tartars is only one state away from Lingyun Prefecture where Hua Jin is located. Even according to the curve, the distance is less than two thousand miles.
At this moment, the surviving people in Lingyun Prefecture have no idea that a large number of refugees will swarm in soon.
At this moment, those who survived are rejoicing that they not only survived the plague but also harvested food. They are thinking about the future and still have hope.
One month later, Crescent City.
The grain that was originally thought to take more than a month to mature, perhaps because of the good weather, has all matured, which made the children like Da Liu Gouzi so happy that they almost wanted to grow it in the ground.
Although they were very tired during the harvest, they still had fun from morning to night. They used the farm tools left by their benefactor, brother, in five days to harvest all the grain from nearly three acres of land inside and outside the courtyard, and spent another two days drying it.
Looking at the golden millet, golden wheat grains, sweet sweet potatoes, and soft glutinous potatoes, the next few days were the rare days when they could eat enough in the past few years. They were so satisfied that they laughed out loud in their dreams at night. .
As the grain was dried and stored, just when the children were about to plant the next crop of grain, they felt extremely hot that day when they opened their eyes. Even if they stayed in the room without moving, they were still covered in sweat. I can still hold on.
Even half an hour under the sun would make me dizzy from the heat. I couldn't hold on before planting, so I finally went back to the house. Such a hot temperature also made Da Liu Gouzi and the others temporarily stop thinking about planting during the day.
Having wandered through the gates of hell, what they feared most was getting sick and they didn't dare to gamble.
And Yunzhou, which was suffering from a fierce attack by the Northern Tatars, was even more so because of the sudden high temperature, which made the already impatient and short-tempered Northern Tatars even more brutal. Their attacks became even more ferocious, and the top of their heads was burning like a fire. The high temperature made them unbearable, and they just wanted to capture Yunzhou quickly.
Rushing cars kept hitting the city gate, and under the cover of arrows, the ladders were filled with soldiers and they attacked fiercely.
Yunzhou's small number of troops could only protect the city for half a month. The generals who defended the city smiled bitterly as they looked at the soldiers who fought tooth and nail to protect the city.
No matter what, half a month was bought for the people who fled with Yicheng, which was enough for them to be worthy of the people of Yicheng in Yunzhou.
Looking at the soldiers who kept falling and being replaced, their faces were flushed from the sun and their clothes were soaked with sweat. Some of them were even on the verge of collapse but still gritted their teeth and insisted on being replaced. They were not afraid even if they died in the next moment. The general couldn't bear it. .
The city... they couldn't hold it any longer, and there wasn't enough food to last them three days. Seeing that the soldiers who had been fighting with him for half a month in bloody battles, some of them were Yicheng soldiers who had protected the people all the way here. Even though they knew it was a fatal situation, they still followed them to defend Yuncheng, and they were all good people.
But...do you really have the heart to let your brothers die with him?
Sun Tan couldn't bear it and cut down several Tatar soldiers who tried to climb up the city wall. A determined light flashed in his eyes, which were stained red by blood, and he immediately shouted: "Soldiers, hold on, you must hold on. Think of us." The family members behind us, they only have us, we use our flesh and blood to build their hope of survival, no matter what, we cannot let them attack today."
While fighting, Sun Tan shouted loudly with a hoarse voice, this is Nilin. When they thought that their persistence was for their families to survive, the shaky soldiers seemed to be suddenly injected with a divine power, piece by piece. Stones and logs were thrown at the Northern Tatars on the ladder. They waved their weapons and protected the city wall with their lives time and time again. If one person fell, others immediately made up for it. In short, they had to defend even to the death.
They fought like this from early morning to noon, and fought continuously for several hours. Although the Northern Tatar Army really wanted to break through Yuncheng, it was really too hot. It was like a huge fireball hung in the sky, burning people constantly. Even the sweat was almost gone, and he was afraid that he would be roasted before he could conquer Yuncheng. Although he was very unwilling to do so, he finally chose to retreat to escape the summer heat.
There was no way to retreat. Many soldiers did not die from the resistance of the Yuncheng soldiers, but were fainted by the scorching sun.
As the horn of the enemy's retreat sounded, the Yuncheng soldiers who were at the end of their strength finally breathed a sigh of relief, leaving all the soldiers on guard to descend the city wall under the orders of Sun Tan and others.
As soon as they came down from the tower, almost everyone rushed to the dozens of large vats placed in the corner. After drinking a bowl of cold water, they felt alive again, and then they had a bowl of wild vegetable porridge. They were exhausted. They found a shady spot and sat on the ground to rest.
Looking at these exhausted and scarred soldiers, Sun Tan silently drank his bowl of wild vegetable porridge.
In another two days, they were afraid that they would not be able to drink wild vegetable porridge. Once they had no food, it meant that they had no strength, and how could they resist the barbaric Northern Tatars.
As he finished a bowl of wild vegetable porridge, Sun Tan's eyes became firmer.
Although he had been prepared to die on the battlefield the day he joined the army, and it was his lifelong belief to defend the country and protect the people, but now Yuncheng is also an empty city, and the disparity in military strength between the two sides is so great that it is already the limit for them to be able to persist until now. , the ending was already anticipated.
Thinking of the letters asking for help sent out one after another, it was like they were lost in the sea, and thinking of Gu Yan's current situation, what didn't Sun Tan understand? He was afraid that Gu Yan, the current saint, would not be able to protect himself, and he could no longer care about them, who were protecting the country with their lives. Soldiers.
The green hills are still there, and he is not afraid of running out of firewood. He...can't do it if he throws away the lives of thousands of soldiers for an empty city.
It's better to keep your life and continue to protect the living, so that you can always stand in the way of the people of Yicheng Yunzhou who escape.
Immediately, Sun Tan stood up and shouted "Zhao Gao".
"Tell me to go down and rest for two hours. After two hours, all the troops will be evacuated from the south gate."
The previous battle had consumed a lot of energy on both sides, and they had a buffer time of one night.
"General...what do you mean?"
"Yes, just as you think, the city's destruction is an established fact. I can't watch all the soldiers just lose their lives. Go ahead as I said."
