Hizen Country has just entered autumn, the summer heat has not yet dissipated, the cool autumn wind is late, but the room is already bleak thousands of miles away, the grass has begun to wither, the wind with a trace of coldness, can feel the pace of winter is getting closer and closer.

Here in Murowe, you never feel the heat of summer, there are only three seasons in a year, and autumn means that the long winter is not far away.

Autumn is the season when cattle and sheep grow fat on the grassland, only enough fat can survive the long winter cold, under normal circumstances, herders will not start any war in such a season, but once the war breaks out, it means that one side will completely disappear from this world.

Wang Peng stood at the head of the city, the blood stains on his face had not dried, the long knife in his hand had already been curled, and the tip of the knife was still dripping with blood drop by drop, and the whole person looked into the distance like a clay carved wood sculpture.

At the end of Wang Peng's line of sight, the flames and smoke had obscured the sky, but if he could see through the flames and smoke, he could see the neighing of war horses not far away, and countless people stood there, with strange screams in their mouths that they couldn't understand at all, as if they were making final preparations and agitation.

In the northern part of the mountain, a small Murowei tribe with a population of only thirty or forty thousand, originally lived on the other side of the forest from the Black Domain City, but after being squeezed by the Mengwu tribe, the whole clan moved to the vicinity of the Black Domain City, and a great war inevitably broke out.

"Uncle Wang, what do these people from the north of the mountain want, they have been besieging us for almost ten days, and they are only small-scale attacks, can these savages still make siege equipment?"

Wang Peng glanced back at the person who was talking behind him, and looked into the distance again, these people from the north of the mountain were indeed very strange, knowing that they could not attack the city with the simple wooden ladder in their hands, but they were reluctant to leave, as if they wanted to starve the people in the city to death.

In fact, things are not so simple at all, a large number of cattle and sheep are like crops that can move, as long as there is enough forage, the milk produced every day can meet the dietary needs of many people, and such a siege will not make Black City break its muscles and bones even if it lasts for another two months. On the contrary, when winter comes, the northern part of the mountain will not be able to gain a foothold outside the Black Domain City at all, and at that time it will be the weakest time in the northern part of the mountain, doesn't the northern part of the mountain even understand this?

The strength of the northern part of the mountain is slightly superior in field battles, and such a war has actually become a war of attrition between the two sides, and whoever can hold out to the end will be the winner.

"Who knows? Sometimes the behavior of these wild boar skins seems funny, but in fact, there is a reason for it. For example, the last time the shaman set fire to the city, who would have thought that there were herbs to cure people's insanity in the smoke, if it wasn't for the wrong direction, we would have almost been hit! ”

The person who spoke was Zhen Thirty-three, and everyone also found that Shanbei was a little smarter than the average Mur Wei, and after measuring the strength of the Black Domain City and himself, he didn't fight hard at the first time, but just sent a small group of clansmen to attack tentatively a few times, and after finding that he could not surpass the city wall of the Black Domain, such attacks became more frequent, to the point that it was unbearable.

Zhen Er, who was on the side, angrily slapped the wall bricks with the steel knife in his hand and said: "Several waves of people sent out have found that a very long inclined ladder is being built in the northern part of the mountain, this kind of inclined ladder is almost close to the height of the city wall, although we have fierce fire oil in our hands, but we have to guard against it!" ”

The faces of the people on the city wall became heavy, before the northern part of the mountain, there were already several waves of murwei around the Black Domain City, after seeing the tall walls of the Black Domain City, they all chose to retreat, there was no stubborn posture with the Black Domain City, but the northern part of the mountain, which was not strong, was as unwilling to leave as a hungry wolf, and I didn't know what the northern part of the mountain was fighting.

"In just over a month, it should be winter!"

Zhen Thirty-three didn't know what Wang Peng meant by this, people who have lived in Murowei know that it is a half-year winter here from around September every year to March of the next year, and it is already the beginning of August, and I am afraid that the first snow on the grassland will fall in more than 20 days.

"Uncle Wang is talking about the winter camp in the northern part of the mountain?"

Wang Peng nodded and said: "Have you found it, the northern part of the mountain has always been outside the Black Domain City, and there is no sign of looking for a winter camp, if I am not mistaken, the northern part of the mountain is preparing to spend the winter in the Black Domain City!" ”

Wang Peng's words made everyone gasp, if Wang Peng's words were not wrong, then ...... In other words, the northern part of the mountain is bound to win the Black Domain City, otherwise this winter will not be able to survive at all, and the northern part of the mountain will be desperate with his own people!

But why did the northern part of the mountain do this?

Could it be that the northern part of the mountain is full of crazy people, have you ever thought about what to do if you ......, if you don't capture the Black Domain City!

Compared to the northern part of the mountain, these people also have no way out, it is impossible to give up Black Domain City, can it be that the other party wants to break the net!

So...... Then there is only a fight to the death!

Wang Peng is unwilling to fight with other tribes now, other tribes may be afraid of the cold, but Black Domain City does not have this worry at all, there is an open-pit coal mine in the forest not far from Black Domain City, the exposed coal seam is not large, and it has not had time to explore, but these coals are used sparingly, enough for Black Domain City to use for more than a dozen winters.

As for the fierce fire oil hidden under the Black Domain City, others don't know how much it is, but I heard Zhen Qian say that it should be enough in this life, the next life, and the next life.

Wang Peng didn't worry about the reserves in the Black Domain City at all, because he had to prepare for a long-term battle in Murowei, so as long as there was an opportunity, the reserve work never stopped, just the dried meat smoked in the basement was enough for more than 20,000 Black Domain people to eat for half a year, not to mention those pickled vegetables, game and dry goods, what was lacking was only rice and wheat, even if the stored materials were besieged by people for more than two years, Wang Peng would not worry about no food to eat in the Black Domain City.

But the problem is not here, I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves, there is a hungry wolf at the door of the house, which makes anyone feel uncomfortable!

"This is a problem! But how can Shanbei have the confidence that he will be able to break through the Black Domain City this year? ”

Zhen Thirty-three's words made the people around him ponder, he is not a fool, is Shanbei a fool? Or do you know that the northern part of the mountain has something to rely on?

At this time, Ma Sui, who had not spoken, opened his mouth and said, "Everyone, will Shanbei attack us from behind?" ”

"Behind! No way....... ”

Everyone's first reaction was that it was impossible, if this was said two months ago, when Black Domain City had not yet expanded the outer city, this possibility might exist, but after Black Domain City built an outer city to store winter cattle and sheep in the east, it was almost impossible to bypass Black Domain Haizi and sneak attack from behind Black Domain City.
