Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World
Chapter 135 0134: Border War Begins!
Chapter 135 0134: Border War Begins!
The result was exactly what Cheng Zongyang expected.
Just when the fire was at its most intense and seemed to be engulfing the entire forest, the sky suddenly turned gloomy.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and it seemed as if the whole world was shrouded in darkness. But within a few minutes, a thunderous roar split the sky, and heavy rain poured down.
The speed was far beyond the expectations of Cheng Zongyang and others.
The combination of heavy rain and wildfire caused steam to rise and the fire began to be contained.
The animals sensed the hope of life and began to become cheerful! They stopped crowding towards the center and began to spread out, as if to experience more of the long-lost baptism of heavy rain.
The rain was getting heavier, as if venting the accumulation of the past two years. The flames were gradually extinguished, leaving only charred trees and devastation.
Zhou Hanchang couldn't stop smiling as he watched the heavy rain falling.
"It's been more than two years! It's finally raining! Everything is over! Hahahaha~!"
However, Cheng Zongyang looked towards the west with a serious expression.
There was a scream before the fireball appeared! Then there were countless fireballs rising into the sky. What on earth was that terrifying scream?
In addition, Tianduan Mountain covers four prefectures, and judging from the exploding fireballs, the forest fires are not just in a few places.
Perhaps, those villages, towns and county towns also suffered varying degrees of damage.
However, Cheng Zongyang and others did not know that although it was raining heavily in Tianduan Mountain, outside the mountain it was still scorching hot without any rain.
At the same time, the fireballs that had fallen from the sky earlier also caused varying degrees of damage to the villages, towns, county towns, prefecture towns, and even the prefectural capitals in the four prefectures!
When Emperor Liang in Kyoto learned about it, his face changed drastically. He quickly sent people to handle the matter and immediately notified the border troops to be prepared.
In Yufeng County, several fireballs fell into residential areas, causing countless fires! Countless people wanted to fetch water to put out the fires, but they could only stare at the nearly dried-up wells in despair.
The only source of water is the large public well in the central area.
Luo Dingran and others were also extremely worried and had to take harsh measures to suppress those who took advantage of the fire to grab supplies and water sources. They also quickly organized people to isolate the fire area.
In the mountains outside the county town, some villages did not receive as heavy rain as in Tianduan Mountain, and could only let the fire burn!
This situation continued to occur in the four prefectures.
A battle suddenly broke out in the border cities of Linchuan, Xiangyang and Xichuan!
Those who had been ready for a long time, when they saw the fireball appearing in the sky above Tianduan Mountain, it was like a signal of war, and they immediately started the battle to seize the gate!
Then one signal fireworks exploded in the air.
At the same time, outside the border city, countless orderly people in different clothes came from far and near, forming teams and rushing towards the city like a torrent!
They were not state soldiers, but family soldiers belonging to the thirteen royal families.
The Thirteen Royal Clans are a super family that is above the power of the aristocratic families and slightly weaker than the royal power. They can also be called top-level aristocratic families!
But their strength far exceeds that of the aristocratic families, so they are called the royal family!
They did not want to be restricted by the dynasty, so they moved their entire clans out of the dynasty. Some stronger royal families in some countries even dared to split off their territory and become independent, becoming new royal families!
However, any royal family that dared to split the country would be targeted and attacked by the dynasty, so most of them would migrate away!
The dynasty does not want to cause unrest with this kind of royal family that has at least five innate perfections and twenty innate masters, so once royal forces appear in each country, they will basically be asked to leave.
However, over the years, among various countries, there have been only thirteen super families that can become the Thirteen Royal Families.
The formation of each royal family is to harvest the resources of the dynasty. Once they leave, the only loss is the resources of each country. Because of the lessons learned from the thirteen royal families, the development of the aristocratic families in each country will be restricted and suppressed by the dynasty to prevent the emergence of more royal forces!
Now, the number of family soldiers in each color of clothing is no less than 10,000. Perhaps this number is not much for a national army.
But if you look closely, you will find that most of these people are of the lower three grades, some are of the middle three grades, a few are of the upper three grades, and there are several warriors in the innate realm!
There may not be many of them on their own, but when they unite, their number is something that even the Daliang State dare not underestimate!
Even though the Daliang soldiers were well prepared, their expressions changed drastically when they saw the majestic appearance of the thirteen royal soldiers.
Although they had already lit beacons to notify the garrison when the spies attacked the gate, it was obvious that they could not hold them off for too long!
Bad news came out quickly!
As the top three warriors guarding the border wall were killed by the innate master who appeared, a city gate was immediately broken!
The speed was so fast that the warriors defending the city were shocked!
Even though this innate master was blocked by the innate strength of the army from behind, he was no longer able to stop the attack from the team of the thirteen royal families!
The war in the three prefectures broke out!
The purpose is to get the things in Tianduan Mountain!
They had already known about the things that fell from the sky, but they had been sending spies to investigate and had kept it secret, all for this day.
Xiangyang, Tianduan Mountain, inner mountain pass area.
As the heavy rain put out the forest fire, Cheng Zongyang and others rushed back to the base with Zhou Hanchang and a group of workers.
Half a month has passed since the gold rush began, and the salt produced by the salt-making workshop has been sent back to the tribe in batches. The finished salt was sent back last night, and there was no salt left at the base.
Muddy black water flowed in the mountains and forests, and the ground was slippery. The workers walked very carefully after falling many times.
Cheng Zongyang could only let his uncle and the others go back slowly, while he wanted to go back first to check the situation.
The heavy rain came just in time and solved the fire problem, but he was worried that the rain would be too heavy and cause mudslides.
Don't forget, they are located right next to the once dry riverbed.
Half an hour later, Cheng Zongyang rushed back to the base and found that there were seven or eight houses on fire, but fortunately they were extinguished by the rain. The other losses were not great.
"Yang'er, what's wrong?" Cheng Guanghai was relieved to see his son coming back. Everyone gathered around him.
"My uncle is fine now. He is rushing back. It is raining heavily outside. The fire has been contained."
"That's fine, that's fine."
"It's good to see it rain! It's finally raining!"
"What on earth were those things that fell? Why were there so many of them?"
Everyone was talking to each other, as if they were asking questions or talking to themselves.
Cheng Zongyang did not let anyone out, but continued to wait, fearing that something unexpected might happen.
After his uncle and his men came back and arranged the personnel, Cheng Zongyang said to his father, "Dad, you keep the people in the cellar and cave, I'll go out and take a look."
He needed to know what was going on outside so that he wouldn't be completely in the dark about what was going on outside.
Cheng Guanghai did not stop him and nodded, "Okay. Be careful."
Cheng Zongyang nodded in agreement and walked out of the cave.
It was still raining outside, but the dry riverbed was beginning to accumulate water, indicating that the underground water had been replenished. This also showed how heavy the rain was.
Cheng Zongyang glanced around, wiped the rain off his face, quickly left the inner mountain pass and ran outside.
However, when he reached the outer mountain pass, he found that the rain had stopped.
But Cheng Zongyang was stunned when he saw the scorching sun outside and the fires raging in the distance.
He couldn't help but turn around and look towards the inner mountain. It had indeed rained and he was still wet. This was not an illusion!
"This, it's raining only in the inner mountain area?" Cheng Zongyang's doubts grew. Although there were local showers and local heavy rains, the contrast between the inner and outer mountains really made Cheng Zongyang speechless.
"It seems that the rain in Tianduan Mountain was caused by a forest fire. The conditions outside are not met, so there is no rain." Cheng Zongyang shook his head and continued to go towards the burning Jinqiao Village.
Apparently, a fireball hit the forest near Jinqiao Village. In an already scorching environment, the fireball was like setting fire to the forest doused with tung oil. It exploded in an instant without the help of wind.
As a result, Jinqiao Village also suffered.
Even some surrounding villages suffered.
"Now there is really nothing left." Cheng Zongyang stood at the outer entrance of the mountain, looking at the situation outside and shaking his head.
Unless it rains, the only outcome is that everything will burn out.
"I don't know what's going on in Yufeng County." Cheng Zongyang murmured, and turned back to Neishankou. He didn't think about going to Yufeng County.
In Yufeng County now, apart from delivering medicine powder to Li Lu and inquiring for information, he basically does not go to the county unless there is something important or necessary.
Of course, he still often found excuses to go to the county to get supplies for his tribesmen.
The rain had stopped, and there were basically no open fires in the mountains except for the trees still emitting smoke.
The rain stopped, and the mudslides he was worried about did not occur.
Seeing this, Cheng Zongyang also asked everyone to come out.
Cheng Zongyang also told the adults what happened outside. When they found out, they were not too surprised.
In the past, there were many cases where it often rained in the mountains and forests, but there was no rain outside the mountains.
But when they learned that the fire had destroyed the village, they all remained silent.
In silence, Cheng Guanghai directed the personnel to start cleaning up the base, rebuilding and replacing burned houses, and cleaning up things soaked by rain.
However, the seedlings were almost destroyed by the impact, the heat of the fire, and the heavy rain, which made everyone feel very sad.
The women could only try their best to rescue the fruit, vegetable and seedlings.
An hour later, Cheng Zongyang learned that the losses were not great, and everyone was relieved. They were afraid that an unexpected disaster would destroy the station they had worked so hard to build.
While everyone was busy, Cheng Zongyang called the people from the Hunting Hall.
A big fire almost drove away or burned countless wild animals, and then it was time for them to harvest.
"Quick and decisive, this time we have only one goal, bring back some burned animals!"
There are only twenty people from the Hunting Hall this time, so his cousins don't have to go.
Everyone who was lined up in an orderly manner was stunned when they heard the mission mentioned by Cheng Zongyang.
"Young Patriarch, are you collecting those for eating?" someone asked.
Cheng Zongyang shook his head: "No, it's for next year's harvest and this year's safety. Okay, get ready. Send all the found animal carcasses to a centralized location for storage. Wait for my arrangements later."
There will inevitably be a major epidemic after a major disaster. So many animals have been burned to death. If nothing is done, it will easily lead to an epidemic that spreads in the mountains and forests.
Although he had Qingwen Powder, there was no need to take the risk.
Therefore, the area within a radius of several miles around must be cleaned up.
In addition, it is also used to make carrion soil. Carrion soil involves the yield of farming. The highest yield is 1,500 kilograms. Even if there are 100 acres of land, there are 150,000 kilograms of grain harvest. I don't know how many people it can feed.
This concerns the development of the clan. Now that we have this opportunity, we must not waste it!
When everyone heard this decision, they had no choice but to obey.
Afterwards, they worked in pairs and carried stretchers into the mountains to look for the carcasses of burned animals.
Cheng Zongyang went to the place where the fireball had landed before to check, and also to see if there was a pit that could be used to ferment and make carrion soil.
When he arrived at the pit, his face was solemn.
The surrounding area within two to three hundred meters seemed to be filled with traces of layers of impact sweeping out from the center.
All the trees were smashed to pieces!
In the center, there is a pit with a diameter of about eight or nine meters and a depth of about six or seven meters.
There are pits! But no stones!
"A fireball like a meteorite fell to the ground, causing such a shock wave, but there is no stone in this pit? Is it really just a fireball?"
Cheng Zongyang frowned and asked, "What kind of being can display such power?"
Cheng Zongyang's feelings became more and more complicated.
It seems that his understanding of the world is just like that of a frog in a well. He can only see a small area and has no idea of the outside world!
"Let's do the things at hand first."
Cheng Zongyang no longer dwelled on the issue that had no results yet. Otherwise, he would only end up in a situation where he was worrying about nothing.
He believed that as long as he was strong enough, he would be able to get in touch with the corresponding circles. The truth of each circle would be revealed to him one day!
With a ready-made earth pit, Cheng Zongyang began to find a few people to collect a large amount of wood ash.
After this big fire, there was plenty of ash, although it had all turned into ash mud, it was still usable.
As the people carried back the burnt animals, Cheng Zongyang took out his Tang knife, dismembered the carcasses of the animals, and then threw them into the pit and mixed them with the soil.
Then, a large amount of rotten plants were thrown in, layer by layer, until the ground was level. Then, the entire ground was covered with the mixed grass ash.
Once this preliminary production is completed, you can proceed to the second step after waiting for three or four months.
The rotten soil in the wilderness world is simpler than this. After all, the area is only one acre, so there is no need to wait that long and it can be simply made.
But what we are using here is the foundation of a hundred acres of land in the future, so what we need to do is naturally different.
However, there were too many dead animals to fit in the pit, so people had to dig more. Fortunately, after being soaked by rain, the soft soil was much easier to dig.
Two more days passed during this busy period.
Cheng Zongyang and the people from the Hunting Hall finally completed the production of rotten meat soil in thirteen large pits.
This is the base soil, which will need to be mixed with fresh arable soil before use so that it can meet the needs of arable land.
Similarly, the potential threat of epidemics in the area was eliminated.
As for whether there will be epidemics in the pits, Cheng Zongyang is basically not worried.
Firstly, the distance was far, and secondly, he had thrown a lot of earthworms and rotten things in. After being buried for more than half a year, in this kind of weather, the dismembered animal carcasses underground were basically decomposed.
If you turn it over and process it before farming at the beginning of the year, there will basically be no problem.
After two days, the inner mountain pass has returned to its original appearance, but it is also much emptier.
