Happy wind outlet.
Xifengkou is different from Yumenguan. Yumenguan is close to the Hedong Corridor. Except in winter, it is a scene of yellow sand all over the sky. Therefore, even if it snows, the terrain is much easier to walk than other places.
Fortunately, the wind outlet is different here. It is connected to the Xiongnu grassland. If it snows, it will be difficult to travel. You can only walk one foot deep and one foot shallow in the snow.
It can be said that the environment is very harsh!
When Li Lin arrived at Xifengkou with a hundred Tatar guards, what he saw was the dilapidated scene of the majestic and majestic border heavy trucks in the past.
Only the remains of the thick city wall are left, covered with mottled marks of knife and ax chisel and black ashes left by the fire.
The city gate was wide open and no one was guarding it.
Li Lin and others entered the card easily. The streets were deserted. Walking on the deserted streets, looking at the dilapidated houses around him, if he hadn't happened to see a child at the window of a dilapidated hut, With those curious eyes, Li Lin even suspected that he had arrived in a ghost town!
Is this still a border heavy truck with a population of tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of residents in surrounding villages?
I can't imagine that even here has become like this, what will those countryside look like?
After leading the people through the entire checkpoint, Li Lin immediately arrived at the gate of the former garrison and closed his eyes in deep thought.
"Li Tangsheng, can we really recruit people in this damn place? Why don't we go back and talk to the commander, we can find another place, don't delay your graduation exam."
The hundred-man team all started to dissuade Li Lin. Today, everyone in the city was very vigilant. No matter how they shouted, they acted as if they hadn't heard them and no one came out.
Especially when seeing these Tatars, the fear and resistance in their eyes is simply obvious.
Li Lin thought for a while, then slowly shook his head and said, "No need to change, it's just here, I've already thought of a way."
Having said this, Li Lin immediately ordered: "Take out the flare gun."
Aster was stunned for a moment, and then asked again with some suspicion: "Put it here?"
"Well, just put it here!"
Li Lin nodded affirmatively, and then said: "Don't be idle until the signal is given. Let's clean up the garrison and stay here tonight.
Tomorrow, you and your brothers will go to the city or outside the city to look around to see if there are any tree trunks that are thick enough for one person to carry. Get ten of them and set them up at the gate of the garrison. "
"Why do you need ten tree trunks?"
Astena asked in confusion.
Li Lin's eyes flashed, and he solemnly said: "I want to learn from Lord Shang, and I will build my trust in you!"
Aster didn't know much about the history of the Central Plains, so he didn't quite understand the meaning of these words, but he still nodded ignorantly and agreed.
After a while, someone in the team took out a uh... something similar to a fire stick from the package, pointed it towards the sky and pulled the rope downwards!
Pull!
Biu!
Only a sharp whistling sound was heard, and the next moment a huge firework exploded in the sky under the evening sun!
The huge explosion could be heard throughout the level, and it was heard clearly. It attracted many people hiding at home to look over, and happened to see the gorgeous fireworks in the sky.
"Master, what is that?"
In a certain dilapidated house, a gray-faced woman looked curiously at the fireworks blooming in the sky and asked with confusion?
The woman's husband quickly pulled her back from the window and scolded her in a low voice:
"I'm dying! Didn't you see so many barbarians coming in during the day? What if this is their way of luring us out, just so they can see you?"
Have you forgotten that when the Xiongnu invaded the city, when we came out of the cellar, there was an old man in his fifties, Mrs. Li, next door! Those beasts didn't even let her go!
Do you want to die? "
The woman shrank her neck, a clear look of fear appeared on her face, and shook her head repeatedly: "I was wrong as the head of the house, I don't want them to see it, I'm not curious anymore!"
The man's anger subsided a lot. He looked outside the door through the gap in the window and breathed a heavy sigh of relief when he found that no one was there.
At this time, I heard the woman say: "Master, the food at home is enough for three days at most, we have to think of a way.
It's okay for the two of us who are young and strong, but my parents, Erya and Huzi can't go hungry!
My parents are getting older and they can’t survive long if they are hungry. The child is growing up and is crying out for hunger at any time. As a mother, I feel heartbroken! "
Hearing this, the man also sighed. When he hid in the cellar, he didn't have time, so he had to let his family hide in first. I only brought a little food.
In the past month, they have almost eaten enough. If they can't find food anymore, their family will starve.
And their family has already settled down. Some people didn't bring much food at all and had stopped eating a long time ago. These days, they have no choice but to go to the wilderness to see if they can catch some hibernating rabbits or something. Yes, if it doesn't work, just dig some vegetable roots and cook them. Life is very hard.
Now that the Huns are gone, I don’t know when the people from the court will come?
When will we be able to provide disaster relief? Otherwise, their family may suffer the same fate!
The man thought for a while and then said: "Let's see tomorrow. If those barbarians leave, I will follow Erniu and the others to look for them. Maybe we can find some food!"
"good!"
…
After firing the signal gun, a group of guards immediately packed up the garrison mansion. Soon, they found a place to rest in the dilapidated garrison mansion.
Everyone lit a fire in the living room of the garrison mansion. The wood was naturally the former seat and bench in this hall.
Everyone took out the dry food they had on them, used their helmets as pots and hung them on the fire to boil water.
When the water was almost boiling, he threw the dry food in, took out a few meat cans, opened them, cut the meat into slices and poured it in. After cooking for a while, there was no need to add any seasonings, and the rich smell of meat porridge was there. It spread in the garrison!
"Li Tangsheng, come and try the craftsmanship of our brothers. The conditions are poor, and now we can only eat this. If you were in our tribe, we would definitely give you a taste of our roasted whole lamb!"
That smell is so delicious! "
"Okay, I'm sorry to bother you all!"
Li Lin smiled, stepped forward, took the bowl filled with meat porridge from a Tatar soldier, and began to eat.
After taking a bite, Li Lin immediately raised his head and said with a smile: "The craftsmanship is very good and it tastes delicious!"
The Tatar guards who had been looking at him suddenly opened their mouths and laughed happily.
Li Lin also showed a smile.
Then everyone started to eat dinner.
In this quiet night, the only sounds of people drinking porridge and the sound of meat porridge bubbling in the pot could be heard from time to time.
Just when everyone was enjoying their meal, suddenly!
Gululu~
A strange sound that was different from the others sounded. As members of the army, a group of Tatar soldiers immediately picked up the guys around them, guarded Li Lin in the middle, and looked at the direction of the sound with vigilant eyes.
"Who! Who's there! Come out quickly!"
Astena held a machete in his hand, staring at a piece of rubble with a vigilant face, and slowly moved forward!
"Don't! Don't kill me! I'll come out! I'll come out right now!"
There was a crash!
A crisp boy's voice sounded, and a short boy with a gray face and a tattered body climbed up from the rubble.
Begging for mercy with a face full of fear!
