More than 20 miles south of Liaoyang, this place is empty, without any villages and towns, because the villages and towns here have already been cleared by the Jurchens!

There is a huge granary here, which is where the Jurchens store grain.

Wanyan Zonghan is about to lead the army to the south to "explore" Shanhaiguan. At this moment, the granary has also received news. Since the afternoon, the guards in the granary have already transported a lot of grain to the car. They will do it in the next few days. such a job.

The weather in June is extremely hot, but this is where the Northeast is located. In the middle of the night, the weather has gradually cooled down.

There are many Jurchen soldiers stationed around the granary. These Jurchen soldiers are not to guard against the Song army, but to guard against the nearby Khitan rioters.

At the door of a warehouse, two veterans were resting against the wall at the moment.

Both of these two veterans are over fifty years old, and they look like Khitans in their attire! It was difficult for old Khitans like them to go to the battlefield, and they could only be responsible for guarding the warehouse.

"When I went home a few days ago, more than a dozen people died of starvation in the village! More and more corpses were piled up in the ravine at the east end of the village, and they were all Khitan corpses!" an old soldier whispered.

"I heard that several mass graves have appeared in the north of Liaoyang! I don't know if half of the Khitan people in Liaodong will survive this year!" another veteran said.

"There is so much grain in this granary, it's a pity that it is used for the Jurchens' battle! We Khitan people were starved to death and couldn't eat this grain! In fact, this grain was originally stored by our Daliao Kingdom. The real person just took it away!" The veteran who had spoken earlier said with some indignation.

"My son was also captured by the Jurchens. I don't know where he is now, and if he is still alive?" Another veteran sighed softly.

"In the past two years, we Khitan people still rose up to rebel, but since last year, it has been rumored that Master Yelu Dashi and the Jurchens have reached a peace agreement, and Master Yelu Dashi sent people to the rebels from all walks of life to tell those rebels not to rebel. Rebellion! It’s just that the Jurchens made us unable to live, but Master Yelu Dashi didn’t let us live! Rebellion is death, and if you don’t rebel, you will starve to death!” the veteran who had spoken earlier gritted his teeth.

"Hey!" another veteran sighed.

"Jurchen seems to be mobilizing troops again, and is going to use troops against the Han people again! Hmph, I really hope that the Jurchen will be defeated by the Han people. In this case, we Khitan people might still be able to survive." The veteran who spoke before said.

"Actually, I think Jurchen is dying! Since ancient times, how can the court maintain the reason why many people have starved to death? Although Yelu Dashi told us Khitan people not to rebel, I don't think the people will listen to him! More and more people died, Liaodong will definitely be in chaos! If the Han people come from the south, the Jurchen will perish!" Another veteran said after thinking for a long time.

"Is what you said true or false?" The veteran who had spoken earlier asked excitedly.

"This is just my guess! Hush, the Jurchens are here, don't talk about it!" Another veteran said.

The Jurchen patrol passed by, and the two veterans had already closed their eyes and pretended to be sleeping!

It was getting darker and darker, and the two veterans stopped talking, and gradually fell into a deep sleep.

After an unknown period of time, one of the veterans suddenly woke up from his dream when he heard a "whoosh" sound!

He stood up, looked around, and immediately felt that the surrounding situation was not right! There are swishing bows and arrows everywhere, and occasionally screams can be heard! The entire granary has become a mess at this moment!

"Not good! Xiao Si, get up quickly! Get up quickly!" The veteran shouted loudly.

Another Khitan man named Xiao Si opened his sleepy eyes and immediately realized something was wrong.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Si asked in horror.

"I don't know! It looks like it's not the rebels attacking here, but the regular army! Let's run away!" the veteran said.

"Escape?" Xiao Si was taken aback.

"If you don't run away, are you waiting to die here?" the veteran who spoke earlier asked anxiously.

Although the two of them were forced to join the Jurchen army, they didn't even have weapons and had no combat capability at all.

The two veterans were already running towards the back. Just after running a few steps, Xiao Si said suddenly: "We need to bring some food back! Otherwise, we will starve to death!"

The former veteran was stunned for a moment, nodded, and then the two returned. They took off their jackets, wrapped dozens of catties of grain in their jackets, and then left the granary in a hurry.

Not long after they left the granary, they saw a raging fire in the granary in the distance!

Looking at the scene here from several miles away, the two couldn't help being stunned!

"One hundred thousand shi of grain was burned just like that! Who is the enemy?" the veteran asked.

"Don't care who it is! Anyway, we are doomed. If we are caught by the Jurchens, we will definitely be killed! Let's go to the countryside! Hide in the mountains!" Xiao Si said.

The two veterans were afraid that the enemy would catch up, so they didn't dare to stay for a long time, and hurriedly continued running towards the distance.

At this moment, at the original location of the granary, tens of thousands of soldiers in black light armor are standing here, all of them are holding crossbows in their hands, and the leader is handsome and elegant, who is it if it is not Wu Jie?

"General, there are more than ten granaries in the south of Liaoyang! Let's divide our troops into five groups. Do we want to go to other places now?" A soldier standing beside Wu Jie asked.

"No need! The five granaries we burned are the granaries with the largest reserves! After these five granaries are burned, even the Jurchen soldiers will have difficulty eating food this year! Come on, let's evacuate here immediately! The way from the sea to here It's far away, we must not stay here for too long!" Wu Jie said.

Only half an hour later, 10,000 troops have already withdrawn from here, heading south!

And in the rest of the places south of Liaoyang, you can also see the fire soaring into the sky, and the rest of the army is constantly evacuating this place!

*** ***

All the way to the east of Liaoyang Mansion in Tokyo, on the east coast of Liaodong Peninsula, this is where Zhenhai Mansion is located!

Zhenhai Mansion was also a city built by the people of the Liao Kingdom. In this era, Dalian, Lushun and other places have not yet been developed. Zhenhai Mansion is the most important city on the Liaodong Peninsula and the most important city east of Liaoyang Mansion!

There are dense virgin forests here, and there are also large tracts of grass!

This is the place where the Liao people raised horses. After the fall of the Liao Kingdom, it was taken over by the Jurchens, and it was also the place where the Jurchens raised horses.

There are more than a dozen huge horse farms around Zhenhai Mansion. There are more than 20,000 war horses in the entire Zhenhai Mansion, and there are more than 50,000 grazing cattle and more than 50,000 sheep! On weekdays, this place provides meat for the Jurchen army! During war, the Jurchens could even directly drive cattle and sheep to the battlefield to provide food!

It was pitch black and the sea was extremely stormy! As the waves rolled, countless black spots could be faintly seen appearing on the sea!

These black dots are getting bigger and bigger, and they turned out to be warships.

After a while, the warships finally came to the shore, and countless soldiers got off the boats and stepped onto the land!

These warriors are also wearing black light armor. Some of them are holding bows and crossbows, while others are holding spears and swords!

"The whole team! Points!" In the night, I heard a shout! However, the sound of the waves is too loud, so it is impossible for the shout to spread too far.

"One, two, three, four..." Soon, the voice of counting came over!

The two generals stood on a rock by the sea. Half an hour later, the army in front of them was completely assembled!

"Report to General, the first army has assembled! There should be 10,082 people, but there are actually 10,082 people!"

"The second army is assembled! There should be 9,667 people, and they actually arrived..."

"The Third Army..."

After a while, all the troops have reported!

"Very good! The first and second armies attacked Fenghai Ranch! The third, fourth, and fifth armies set up an ambush nearby, waiting for the arrival of the Jurchen reinforcements from Zhenhai Prefecture! We came to Jiangnan from Yuzhou, and came from Jiangnan. To Lianghuai, from Lianghuai to Dengzhou, experienced countless battles, but they were all fighting bandits and rogues. This is the first time we have fought Jurchen! Raise soldiers for a thousand days, use them for a while, don't give me Wu Lin Shame!" The middle-aged general said loudly.

"Don't worry, general! We won't embarrass you, we won't embarrass the navy! Now is the time for our navy to make great achievements. In fact, watching other armies keep fighting and defeating Jurchen, the soldiers are full of energy. What!" said the commander of the First Army.

"Okay! Let's go now!" Wu Lin said.

The 50,000 troops marched towards the west quickly, striding forward!

In the middle of the night, there was a light rain in the sky, and the speed of the army's advance remained the same, Wu Lin was overjoyed! Such weather is most suitable for assault and ambush operations! There will be no problem in eliminating the defenders of the pasture. The only thing to worry about now is the Jurchen army from Zhenhai Mansion! According to the information they got, there are 10,000 Jurchen stationed in Zhenhai Mansion, all of them are cavalry, so they must be handled with care!

Fenghai Ranch is the largest ranch in the east of Zhenhai Mansion. After arriving here, the first and second armies have rushed in, and soon the shouts of killing rang out!

And Wu Lin led the officers of the military department forward quickly, and the scouts have also continuously reported the surrounding terrain! It was raining cats and dogs, and they were anxiously discussing and making arrangements!
