Crossing with Baidu To Farm - v4 Chapter 96
Today’s Luo Village is no longer the Luo Village of the past.
In the few years after Xia Jinhua left, Luo Village has been continuously reclaiming wasteland. According to the method said by Xia Jinhua, the soil quality has been improved. The fertilizer workshop produces fertilizer by itself, and uses the method of rotation farming to strengthen the greening of the village and prevent soil erosion. And continue to open up wasteland to farm.
In those days, the fish ponds were constantly expanding, and the land was also expanding. The open space in the village was filled with fruit trees, especially bananas, peaches and plums. All the fields were not free, but were full of crops, especially It is sweet potato etc.
During the Four Kingdoms War period, under the background of starvation and death everywhere, this place still miraculously maintained peace and became a Utopia under the turbulent times.
The land here is fertile, there is a lot of grain, and the paper and fertilizer workshops make a lot of money. How can they not be coveted?
But fortunately, in those few years, Ningshan County changed hands several times. They were too busy. After capturing the county seat, they had to be vigilant for the enemy to come back at any time. It was too busy.
First, it was captured by Wu’an, then Aolaiguo invaded, and by the way, he occupied this place, and then Tangguo’s attacked, and later, Cang’er was taken back again, and the people who came to attack Luocun were all small stocks. Soldiers, the villagers can handle it themselves.
Years of war have made the people miserable. How many happy families have been displaced, how many fertile fields have been trampled on, and how many people have died in the small Ningshan. It is impossible to walk, or it is really reluctant to bear the land where the ancestors have lived for generations.
Luo Cun is such a group of people who are reluctant to leave.
Luo Village is a famous big village nearby. The whole village has become a big farm, with many vegetables and fruits from Fanbang, as well as a large amount of grain.
There is a large fish pond in the village, which can guarantee the harvest even in dry years. There is a lot of sweet potato and rice. The village has not starved to death for many years.
Since the situation began to change, Luo Village immediately began to build high walls and became a well-known fortress. The paper workshop in the village was forced to close, and the cement workshop was also shut down because there were no raw materials. All the cement became The raw materials of the high wall made the high wall extremely strong, and several waves of soldiers came to make an idea, but they were all beaten away.
The village has enough food and is self-sufficient. Even if it has been besieged for several years, there is no problem with food and water.
The walls of Luo Village are getting higher and thicker, and there are more and more people. Many people have fled inside, and many strong men have come in, and their strength has become stronger, even comparable to a bandit cottage. .
Now in that village, the Liu family is gone. When Liu Chenglong came back, he picked up the whole family, including Liu Daliu Er Liu Sanyi and everyone.
That trip picked up a lot of people, and those who stayed were those who really didn’t want to leave.
It took a long time to live a good life, and everyone naturally refused to move away easily.
In the village, Su Luanfeng is still there. She is the owner of the farm. A few years have passed, and she is no longer the weak and helpless concubine she used to be. Now she is the number one of the farm. The other person is Li Dahu’s brother, Li Dalong.
Now these two are the heads of the farm. In the village, there are also the bandits Zhao Long and others from Congliang. Today, Zhao Long is also the main force in the security of the village.
Over the years, in the village, after farming, he taught a group of farmers to learn martial arts to train their bodies when he had nothing to do. Unexpectedly, he would be able to use it at this time.
He learned from the old cottage, and led the villagers to dig deep pits and traps, build high walls, and protect the tranquility of the village for several years.
Today, the sun has just come out, the village seems to be very quiet, and the smoke is rising, but on the high wall, the people on the observation deck dare not relax.
At this moment, the man above the high wall was staring at the place under the high wall and looked at it seriously. He was wearing a short brocade shirt, his sleeves were rolled up high over his wrist joints, revealing pieces of bronze-colored muscles, and he was still posing for a long time. sweating.
There are several deep scars on the man’s rough and dark face, and his sharp eyes have never relaxed, because the home is behind him, he can’t relax.
“father!”
A boy of about five or six years old ran all the way up the high wall, followed by a plain-clothed woman.
Hearing the crisp cry, the man turned his head, and there was already a smile on his serious face, “Lin Zi!”
A child named Lin Zi dashed up, the woman behind her was carrying a food box made of mountain wood, and a small child was carried on the sling on her back. The child was staring at the man. smiling.
That man is Zhao Long, and now he and Widow Xia have given birth to a pair of children.
“Master, it’s time to eat.”
Widow Xia opened the food box. Inside the food box were a few baked sweet potatoes, a little gruel, and pickles. The food in the village was absolutely sufficient, but it was necessary to eat it sparingly. It’s really not easy.
Today’s Widow Xia is no longer Widow Xia. When we meet now, everyone should call her “Sister Long”!
Down the mountain, outside the village, near the river, there is still smoke rising from the kitchen, but with a hint of gunpowder.
Widow Xia looked at the smoke by the river, and she was alone and seemed a little scared.
Suddenly I heard her say: “If only the head of Liu Da’s family could come back!”
Zhao Long was eating, and when he mentioned this topic, he couldn’t help but say firmly: “I will be back, it must be on the way.”
Xia Jinhua can still bring some letters back from time to time, but it was only after the wars over the years that the letters were broken. Although they were far away from Chanzhou, and there was a boundless mountain in the middle, the matter of Xiacheng, the township. People still hear it.
Wei Jin had been to Xiacheng a few years ago, and when he came back, he told them about the situation in Xiacheng, saying that Xia Jinhua had promised him that they would definitely call back within two years!
Now, in just two years, Liangzhou City has really been taken over by Xiacheng. Xiacheng’s, but I didn’t expect that the Wu’an army suddenly came out recently. Taking advantage of the time when the Xia army was weak and could not divide too many troops, they occupied several counties such as Ningshan.
Then Zhao Lin asked innocently, “Dad, who is the master of Liu Da?”
Zhao Long’s red eyes, which had been guarded all night, suddenly lit up, and said, “Our village used to be unable to afford food, but thanks to the master Liu Da who taught us how to make fertilizer and dug fish ponds, now our village is You can live without worry.”
“Where did the head of Liu Da’s family go, why hasn’t he come back?”
Zhao Long smiled, “I will be back.”
Another woman in plain clothes walked up the high wall. It was Su Luanfeng, whom Xia Jinhua had not seen for many years. Today’s Su Luanfeng is capable and sharp, with a bit of an aura that cannot be bullied between her eyebrows and eyes, probably because of this troubled world. honed.
“Brother Zhao, how is the situation outside?” Su Luanfeng came up and asked, “Is there any change last night?”
Zhao Long finished the sweet potato in a few mouthfuls and said, “Nothing for now. There has been no change recently. I suspect that they are waiting for reinforcements.”
Su Luanfeng looked at the military camp that faintly appeared by the river, and her eyes were filled with worry.
Her husband, Li Dalong, was under that high wall, delivering breakfast to the vigil last night.
With their pair of daughters.
Another woman in her early twenties came up and gave breakfast to the strong men who had been standing guard all night on the high wall, and heard her say: “Everyone has breakfast, and when the next wave of people arrives, let’s go home and rest. “
That woman is Liu San’s daughter Liu Meng.
When Liu Chenglong came back, he picked up the Liu family and some old and weak people, but Liu Meng didn’t leave and stayed.
Liu Chenglong also has limited ability. It is not easy to pick up so many people. Liu Meng has never blamed him.
Now, she is married and the mother of two children. The farm also has her share of hard work, and the rebel army must not be ruined.
The young and middle-aged people who had been guarding the city wall all night went home and replaced with another group to continue to guard.
The daily farming in the village has never stopped, especially in this troubled world, where food is the top priority.
Half of the men are guarding the safety of the village at the head of the village, and half of the old men and women continue to farm in the village, which ensures the peace of the village in this troubled time.
Zhao Long was on the high wall and kept looking at the Wu’an military camp by the river. He always felt uneasy, and felt that today was very unusual. After several hurries from Widow Xia, he was about to leave with his bow and arrow on his back.
But when they were about to leave, they saw that the Wu’an Army was lined up in a neat queue, slowly coming up the mountain, and some people carrying hoes, not far from the high wall, and began to dig soil.
Zhao Long’s heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly stopped. He took out Xia Jinhua and stayed in the village. He had used the binoculars for several years, and saw that the Wu’an Army was working hard to dig out an open space.
Dozens of Wu’an troops were struggling to bring things up from the bottom of the mountain.
Seeing the behemoth, Zhao Long was shocked. Ergouzi had a lot of military books there. When he left, he gave them all to Zhao Long.
That thing, he had seen it in the military book, was a trebuchet for siege!
Unexpectedly, the Wu’an Army really used the trebuchet to deal with their small village!
Under the cover of the iron shield, the Wu’an Army carried the trebuchet up the mountain, placed it in the open space just dug not far from the entrance of the village, and began to assemble it.
The people above the high wall also realized the seriousness of the matter.
Zhao Long had already sounded the big bell at the head of the village, and the sound of the bell quickly spread throughout the village. In the village, the men who got up early to plough threw their hoes and went home, took their bows and arrows, and ran up the high wall. The child went home and hid.
Above the high wall, the women all went down, leaving only Su Luanfeng and Liu Meng. Liu Meng also learned from Liu San, carrying bows and arrows, and the women did not let their men.
“Release the arrows! Release the arrows!” Zhao Long shouted, the arrows fell like rain, and the iron in the village was completely insufficient. Many arrows were directly made of bamboo, which could not cause much damage at all.
When Zhao Long saw the trebuchet, he seemed to see despair. He pulled his bow desperately and shot at the Wu’an army who was carrying the trebuchet. One arrow knocked down one person, but someone immediately followed.
There are too many people!
“Smash rocks!”
Liu Meng’s eyes were red, and he shouted, many people smashed the huge stone on the wall.
The densely packed stones, rolling down the hillside, can still hit a lot of people, but they are still not very useful, and the trebuchet is about to be completed.
The stones thrown from the wall are being loaded into the trebuchet by them, and they will soon be projected onto the wall.
Above the city wall, Liu Meng, Su Luanfeng and Zhao Long had only one thought in their hearts – it’s over!
Seeing that the trebuchet is ready, I don’t know how long this city wall made of cement can last.
And at the bottom of the mountain, the Wu’an army came out in full force, rushing up like a tidal wave, eyeing the tiger, just waiting for the wall to fall, and they rushed in. If that was the case, the village would really be destroyed.
The men were nervous, and the women prayed silently in the room, crying with fear.
The entire village seemed to be enveloped by an atmosphere of despair and desolation.
“Continue to smash!” Liu Meng didn’t give up, and took the lead in picking up a big rock and smashing it down. The rock rolled down without causing much damage.
Zhao Long looked at the increasing number of Wu’an troops at the foot of the mountain, there were hundreds of them, his already red eyes showed extreme anger, he raised his knife, and said to everyone: “Everyone, be prepared, if this wall does not Paul, we must not give up!”
Everyone shouted, and they drew out their big swords. Without a sword, it is a hoe, and they are ready to break the cauldron and sink the boat.
But suddenly, there was a fierce scream of killing from the foot of the mountain.
Zhao Long looked down and saw that at the foot of the mountain, behind the Wu’an Army, a wave of unknown troops suddenly appeared. They were wearing green clothes, which was very rare. They were hidden in the green countryside, like a group of monsters, who came to nowhere. The shadow disappeared, and under the shadow of the sword, light and sword, there were screams, long swords fell, blood splattered, and stumps and arms flew together, as if it was not a battle, but a one-sided massacre!
The green group of people seemed to be sharp knives, and they actually tore a seam out of the hundreds of Wu’an troops. They quickly occupied the high ground and reached under the high wall. One of the green-faced and green-clothed young men jumped into Lingyun and jumped onto the rock-throwing machine that had been prepared in a few steps. The sharp knife in his hand was like mowing grass. He instantly reaped several lives and took down the rock-throwing machine.
The people above the high wall are wondering, seeing a group of people with unusual green faces and green clothes, and their methods are so powerful before, could it be a ghost soldier sent by the mountain god?
Suddenly I saw one of the young men turned back, glanced at the people above the city wall, and suddenly waved excitedly at the people above the wall, but the people on the wall saw a Wu’an army behind him with a grim face. The long knife was falling on the man’s head.
Although everyone didn’t know where they came from, they still shouted, “Be careful!”
The young man still waved at the crowd, as if he didn’t know, but the long knife behind him had not yet fallen. The young man seemed to stab back with ease, and the Wu’an Army rolled down the hillside and died in a different place.
When everyone saw the young man without looking, they directly took the level of the person behind him. This method is really high!
From this point of view, this wave of people and the Wu’an Army are completely in two grades!
In less than a meal, the Wu’an army below had all become corpses on the ground, and they were all killed by one move.
The man in green did not even have a single wounded person. A group of people stood in two columns, lined up neatly at the foot of the mountain, turning a blind eye to the corpse under their feet.
Zhao Long was still amazed at the identity of the other party, and saw three green-clothed and green-faced men rushing out, waving at everyone on the wall.
“Brother, I’m Huzi, I’m back!”
“Xiao Meng, I’m your cousin!”
“The folks of Luo Village, the mountain man is back!”
Even though the face was covered in green paint, on the high wall, Li Dalong recognized his younger brother, and was so excited that his voice changed: “Hu Zi, that is Hu Zi! Hu Zi is back! “
“You are cousin Wang Hong!” Liu Meng was also shocked, recognized Wang Honglai, looked at the long line of people, suddenly realized something, and couldn’t help crying.
At the foot of the mountain, among the two neat rows of green troops, a pair of people, also in green clothes, came slowly, but among the thousands of green troops, they were extremely conspicuous.
Su Luanfeng recognized the leader at a glance, it was Xia Jinhua and Sikong Jue!
At the moment, the tears that have been forcibly swallowed for many years can no longer be stopped, and they are bursting out!
Even the iron-blooded man Zhao Long couldn’t help but burst into tears and shouted, “Master Liu is back, open the door to welcome him!”
Master Liu is back?
Originally, the people of Luo Village knew them naturally, and there were also some people who fled from other villages. Even if they didn’t know them, they must have heard of them, and they all went behind the wall to greet them.
The door that had been closed for a long time opened, and the people in the wall came out to withdraw from the trap and came out to greet him.
When the relatives met, the scene was really warm. Li Dalong hugged Li Dahu, and the two brothers cried bitterly.
Wang Hong met Liu Meng and said excitedly, “How is the village all these years? How are the villagers doing?”
Liu Meng just wanted to cry, and choked up: “Okay, everyone is okay, your parents have asked my brother to take me to the capital.”
The magic stick found his family in the people who came out to greet him. Even though he had been a magic stick all his life, he was not a **** after all.
Su Luanfeng ran out from behind the wall, and in front of Xia Jinhua, Xia Jinhua also looked at her, seeing that she seemed much older than she thought.
Over the years, she has paid too much for this farm.
At that moment, Xia Jinhua held back her tears, but still choked up: “Sister Su, I’m back.”
Su Luanfeng cried, thinking that she was still in a dream, and slapped Xia Jinhua gently, as if scolding: “You still know how to come back!”
But the next moment, he couldn’t help hugging Xia Jinhua tightly, and couldn’t help crying.
“…Sansheng, you’re finally back…”
After so many years of separation, we are finally back!
Zhao Long saw a stalwart and tall man walking out of the crowd. It seemed that he was different from the one he remembered. He was stronger, deeper, and more convincing. Everyone only saw that man. Walking forward, with the wind of a swept king, with eyes comparable to the stars in the sky, with domineering and courage that mortals can’t resist, I can’t help but marvel, this person must be a dragon and a phoenix among people, it is really the appearance of a real dragon!
Sikong Jue came forward, and Zhao Long just looked at each other and smiled, but Zhao Long couldn’t help but burst into tears and said, “Boss, you’re finally back, our village, I’m well guarded, don’t worry, don’t worry…”
Sikong Jue patted his shoulder and said, “Let’s not say anything else, let’s go to the village.”
When the group went home, the Green Army occupied the Wu’an army camp by the river, took the prisoners, and worked with the villagers to bury the bodies of the Wu’an army at the bottom of the mountain, and moved everything that could be used in the general camp. After entering the village, there are still quite a lot of things, including food, weapons, etc. Those weapons are the solution to the urgent needs of the village.
Back in the village, Xia Jinhua kept talking and laughing with Su Luanfeng, and soon came to the house she designed herself.
Seeing that house, Xia Jinhua felt a lot. It seemed that the events of that year were still yesterday. It turned out that so many years had passed.
“Mom, can I be blind?”
The gourd baby and a female bodyguard came with a pair of rough men, and the rough man’s eyes were covered with black cloth. After all, the massacre just now was too **** and violent.
“Okay, you can stop being blind.” Xia Jinhua took the black cloth away from them, the rough man opened his eyes, saw such a beautiful house, and said, “Mom, where is this?”
Xia Jinhua held a rough man in one hand, walked into the house, and said, “Have you forgotten? This is the place where Chia and her mother got married. You were the one who dragged him into the bridal chamber when he was drunk!”
The rough man slapped his forehead and said in a decent manner, “No wonder it’s so familiar!”
Xia Jinhua didn’t reveal it either, and led the rough man home.
“mother!”
Su Luanfeng’s pair of daughters ran out of the house. One was four years old and the other was three years old. They looked like her. The child’s father was still discussing business affairs in front of him and he had not come back.
The rough man saw Su Luanfeng’s pair of daughters and said with a smile, “I remember them, I have compared to them to pee!”
The group entered the house. Now there are many people living in this house, all of whom came to seek refuge from outside. Only the yard where Xia Jinhua and Sikong Jue lived is always empty, and someone will clean it at any time, waiting for them to come back.
Su Luanfeng and Liu Meng entered the house together. There were many children playing in the large yard of the house. There were Zhao Long’s children and Liu Meng’s children. They were all so old now. The rough man went happily when he saw a group of new friends. play.
San Gouzi returned to a familiar place and had already disappeared without a trace. Red Wolf and Grey Wolf went to watch the child, Wu Gouzi led Xiao Wu and Huang Tailang into the house to see where he once lived. kennel.
Four Gouzi has already taken a family to the second floor, standing in the position of domination, looking down at the common people.
Su Luanfeng said: “Not long after you left, I married Dalong, and Dalong treated me very well. Now that my husband’s house has been demolished as a wall at the entrance of the village, we still live in this house. Many houses in the village have been demolished to make walls, so I let them live in the house on my own initiative.”
“Although Chun Nu and Xia Nu are maids, they are not too young. They both gave promises to people in the village, and now they still live in this house.”
Xia Jinhua smiled and said, “Sister Su has arranged it.”
Su Luanfeng said again: “When Jackie Chan came back, many people in the village were picked up, and those who stayed did not want to leave.”
Today, the village welcomed back Xia Jinhua and Sikongjue, which was a big happy event. The village, which has always been frugal, killed a few pigs tonight as an exception to reward the people in the green army.
The green army has also eaten dry food for a long time, it is time to start meat, Xia Jinhua also agreed.
Meat can be eaten, but wine cannot be drunk.
Never let your guard down!
The house smoke began to rise, the women began to cook, and the men continued to carry things from the barracks by the river. Although they were tired, they were all beaming.
Under the leadership of Zhao Long, Sikong Jue was looking at the high wall at the entrance of the village.
I saw that the wall was built with two layers, the inner and outer layers. The outer wall was basically made of mud and bricks, while the inner wall was made of cement.
Zhao Longdao: “The workshops in the village have all stopped. When there is no war, the Wang family can still provide us with some raw materials, but when the war begins, the raw materials are not sent. It was not built. All the cement in the warehouse was used to make this wall. Thanks to these two walls, it has protected our village for a few days. Too many people died outside, and many people crowded into our village. I used to be able to come in, but now I can’t live in the village anymore, and if I come in again, there will be not enough food, so I dare not let people go, and I am even more afraid of the enemy’s meticulous work.”
Sikong Jue looked at the wall, but it was repaired like wood. Although it was not as good as the improved cement and reinforced concrete of the Xiacheng city wall, it was not bad.
Everyone was walking between the two walls, Zhao Long sighed: “The world is not peaceful, I thought the battle would not be able to reach us here, but I didn’t expect that once this battle was fought, it could not be avoided anywhere, and several nearby villages The children are almost destroyed, there are not many people, even if there are people, they can’t stand the toss of those wandering soldiers.”
“The Aolai Kingdom occupied Ningshan, and the troops were rioting everywhere. There were regulations on the top, but they didn’t work at all. The people below were still shot and killed. We ordinary people can’t help them. The Tang Kingdom is even worse, and Wu’an is a vicious group. I have been attacking the idea of our village. If I were Cang’er, I would not dare to disturb because of the fact that the Liu family is still the master of Cang’er County. There are still many people who have been forced to become bandits and come to attack the village. idea…”
These years have not been easy for everyone!
Sikong Jue listened, walked out of the wall with everyone, saw the green fields in front of him, and the tall wall behind him, like a huge protector, protecting this peaceful village, he suddenly asked: “Now Ningshan How is the situation in the county?”
“It’s not good. It was taken by Wu’an a few days ago. It is said that there are 10,000 defenders!”
Ten thousand people?
Sikong Jue frowned, but suddenly smiled, and went to the village to have dinner with everyone.
The sky was slowly getting dark, and under the night, a crisis, like an invisible net, slowly shrouded…
