"Why is there always constant wars in any dynasty?"

Mulan hugged her knees and sat by the bonfire. Her clear eyes reflected the firelight. The fragrance of grilled fish gradually spread out, and the firewood crackled.

Mulan was a garrison soldier in Wuchuan Town and joined the army for her father, and lived in a chaotic era.

And this world is also a chaotic world.

“For survival.”

Zhang Hua sat next to Mulan, and the villagers of Xia Village sat around the bonfire and sat on the ground.

"If men farmed and weaved in all places, and lived and worked in peace, then there would be no war, right?"

Mulan thought so naively.

"You are wrong." Zhang Hua's eyes also reflected the beating fire. "Everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and the population will grow rapidly. When the farmland in the village cannot meet the increasing number of people, they have to launch wars outside. Or, drought, flood, locust plague, which leads to food production reduction, will still bring disaster, and the final result will be war."

Mulan thought for a while: "When one day everyone can have a full meal, will there be wars?"

"You are wrong again. Not only survival, but also wars for better living conditions. Because human desires are endless."

Zhang Hua kept shaking his head.

Not to mention the agricultural era and the industrial era, wars continue.

Mulan turned her head and looked at Zhang Hua with a little admiration in her eyes.

Zhang Hua’s biggest advantage is that he has a vision from later generations.

Zhang Hua's commentary shocked Mulan.

Liu Xiucai said from the side: "Miss Mulan was injured, and the village chief's wooden house is the best house in the village. It is not as good as Miss Mulan, who will be recuperating in the wooden house for the time being."

"Um."

Mulan nodded.

But then Mulan realized that her daughter had been known to the other party, not the Wuchuan Town Army soldiers dressed in a woman!

Mulan regrets it, but can't speak.

It's hard to repent what I promised...

"I never thought I could see the Mulan girl who joined the army for my father. It's worth it for my life."

Liu Xiucai clearly knew the story of Mulan joining the army for her father, and couldn't help but sigh.

Not only that, Liu Xiucai from the Ming Dynasty also knew Liao Hua, the general of the Three Kingdoms.

In the late period of Shu Kingdom, Liao Hua was not a small person, but a general of the right chariot.

“Am I very famous?”

Mulan was very confused.

Everyone present, except for Liao Hua, whose dynasty was earlier than Mulan, all looked at Mulan and laughed in silence.

By chance, they had really heard of Mulan's folk legends.

Although most of the villagers present were ignorant, folk legends were told by word of mouth and were more or less heard of.

"Tomorrow, we will concentrate our manpower to reclaim more farmland, and try to complete land reclamation, cultivate land, sowing, ditches and other work before the sowing season passes. If it is too late, we can plant slash-and-burn and spend the first year."

"The quarry and logging yard are also going to be located."

Zhang Hua arranged the next day's work.

In the early stage, the village was in chaos and was ready to be renovated. Zhang Hua kept the village running as much as possible and could not delay the whole day.

"I, Liao Hua, will patrol tonight."

Liao Hua recommended himself.

Heard that there might be a team of Rouran cavalry wandering outside the village. Liao Hua was worried that the Rouran cavalry would attack at night, so he led the Song army team to patrol the night.

Zhang Hua returned to the wooden house, gave the bed to the injured Mulan, and then hit the floor by himself.

When Mulan recovered from her injuries, Zhang Hua believed that with Mulan, Liao Hua, the Song army team, and Xiacun Township Yong, he should be able to defeat the Rouran people.

"Miss Mulan, there is one thing, I'm curious."

"What's the matter?"

"You are in the army for your father. Do you really don't know that you are a daughter?"

Zhang Hua asked an eternal puzzle.

Mulan answered naturally: "The people in the army know that I am a daughter, but they are my fellow villagers and will not expose them. Moreover, my father has an official position in the army and his own tent."

"I see."

Zhang Hua was surprised that according to the "Mulan Ci", Mulan was summoned by the emperor for twelve years in the army and made military achievements that were enough to be named Shangshulang.

Shangshulang is a high-ranking official.

If Mulan was an ordinary military family, what kind of military achievements would she have to make to go from a civilian to a Shangshulang for twelve years?

A more reasonable explanation is that Mulan's family is a military aristocrat, and she has an official position. If she makes military achievements, she will be promoted very quickly.

Mulan's potential is amazingly strong as her daughter, guarding the frontier and making achievements. No wonder Mulan's awakening talent is "learning".

When Mulan saw Zhang Hua quiet, she only heard the other party's breathing. She was uneasy and never had such a special feeling when she killed the enemy on the battlefield.

"He probably won't attack suddenly at night..."

Mulan muttered to herself in an inaudible voice.

Mulan dressed in the army and had her own tent. This was the first time she was in the same room as a woman.

However, Zhang Hua, who had been busy all day, slept soundly and ignored Mulan.

There was Liao Hua patroling outside the wooden house and Mulan guarding inside, so Zhang Hua could finally rest with peace of mind.

"Does I be destined to come here and restore my daughter's body?"

Mulan looked at the faint moonlight passing through the window paper, as if she was back to Wuchuan Town, and the vast scene of the Northern Wei cavalry's northern expedition of Rouran, thousands of horses galloped, the sky was like a dome, covering the four fields.

The injured Mulan quickly fell asleep.

Zhang Hua opened his eyes when he heard Mulan's gradually calming breathing.

The snoring just now was done intentionally by Zhang Hua.

If it weren't for this, Mulan wouldn't dare to fall asleep easily.

Nothing happened overnight.

The next morning, smoke rose in Xia Village, and the villagers began to perform their own duties and reclaim farmland.

On the small hill outside Xia Village, several Rouran cavalry descended from above and looked down at the entire village.

"According to the houses, there are about 500 people in the village."

"It's just a group of two-legged sheep."

"The generals of Wei State are likely to hide in this village."

"No matter whether the generals of the Wei State are hiding in the village, we have to wash and plunder them. The dry food has not lasted for a few days. If this continues, we may have to kill horses for food."

"Now we will attack the village, kill them all, and take away their food."

"Idiots, you can't kill too many people. We need a batch of two-legged sheep as slaves to obtain a steady stream of food. Even two-legged sheep can be used as our reserve grain."

Rouran's leader showed a cruel smile.

In the turbulent times of the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it is never uncommon to treat people as two-legged sheep.

"What the boss said is that we need a group of slaves to help us farm and herd sheep."

"And women!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The Rouran cavalry thought of the women in the village let them enjoy it after they occupied the village, and they all smiled grimly.

Grab money, grain, and women were the simplest slogans to inspire morale in ancient times. Nomad cavalry was the simplest and most effective slogan to inspire morale.

As the Rouran cavalry appeared, the sound of gongs sounded at the entrance of the village, and all the villagers were awakened.

The Rouran Cavalry is here!

Mulan immediately opened her eyes, subconsciously reached out to touch the straight knife placed beside her, and then got out of bed to fight.
Chapter completed!
