To the south of Juma River is the Great Zhou boundary, with important towns such as Xiongzhou and Bazhou to the east; and Yizhou to the west. The south of Yizhou is Dingzhou...Shishuyuan is between Yizhou and Dingzhou.
The place name Shishuyuan is probably because many households in this place have the surname Shi. Shi Hu is an 18-year-old son of a strong young man in this village. He is the only seedling of this family. His parents have long wanted to establish a family for him, and many matchmakers said, but Shi Hu has been unwilling; he thought It is Xu Erniang from the same village.
I will find someone to propose a marriage later. Shi Hu wondered, and followed his father into his yard through the gate. Both father and son are bricklayers. They just came back to help people build tiles in the morning, so they watered their arms in the yard. After a while, his mother came out with water, Shi Hu took out a bag of copper coins and said: "Mother, put it for me, I have enough money to buy a horse."
He_mother murmured a few words about buying a horse, and it also costs food, and then nagging that his son should start a family.
Shi Hu smiled and said: "Mother is still worried that I can't find a wife? I'm looking for Xu Erniang!"
"Tomorrow, I will ask your third aunt." His mother said something.
Shi Hu hurriedly said: "Don't worry, wait until I buy a horse!"
After he said, he looked at the large tiled house newly built last year in the yard, as well as the low wall made of earth rams. He stood there and said without looking back: "You have to plant some flowers and plants behind the wall. Two peach and plum trees are to be planted. As soon as spring begins, there are all flowers!"
Shihu wants to make his home look better. After all, it is not easy to build this house. A family of three get up early and work in the dark. Not only do they farm the land, but they also raise pigs, sheep and chickens. The father and son have craftsmanship. I asked to go, repair the kiln and burn the tiles by myself...In addition, I have to serve in corvee and pay a lot of food. Fortunately, after years of sweat and frugality, the Shi family is getting better and better.
Now he has a new house, food in the warehouse, and copper coins in the cellar. When the family’s sheep are sold, Shihu plans to buy a horse... as a prosperous offspring, he puts on new clothes and rides on a tall horse under the praise of the villagers. Go and marry the beautiful Xu Erniang.
There was an imagination in Shihu's mind, and he was so happy that he almost wanted to dance with his hands and feet, and then shouted at the kitchen, "I will eat in a while, I will go out and mow some grass to feed the sheep."
As soon as I walked to the gate of the courtyard, I suddenly heard a sound of banging and hitting the basin. I saw a group of people rushing to the road in the village, and the village elder shouted: "The Khitan people are coming! The villagers quickly pack up something and go!"
An old man of the same race scolded: "Shihu, what are you doing in a daze! Go call your parents, get some food and clothes and leave immediately. Everyone goes west into the mountains, or crosses the river south Go to Dingzhou."
"Qi... the Khitan?" Shi Hu was dumbfounded and was there.
The old man said: "The Khitan came on horseback. If you don't hurry, you can't run if you want to!"
At this time, the stone father in the chai shed and the woman in the kitchen all came out to see, the people outside kept shouting "The Khitan people are coming", everyone panicked, and the dogs in the village barked everywhere. Not long after, someone from the uncle's family came over and let the Shihu family go together. Everyone babbled, saying that the Khitan people were extremely vicious, killing, arson, looting, and looting.
"Bring the sheep out...but what about the food in my house and warehouse..." The woman wept anxiously.
"Why, why!" Shi Hu stared red eyes and looked angry.
He knows how long it takes to build up this new house, how much effort and sweat it takes; there is also the grain in the warehouse, which is intensively cultivated when in the field, and he is not so caring to wait for the old lady. He usually eats coarse grains to fill his stomach. Finally saved it. The animals in the pen have been raised for a few months before they grow up. He has helped his parents with work since he was a child, something his family has accumulated over many years. These things allowed his whole family to live a solid life, to live like a person, and to be praised by people far and near. I was waiting for a better home in the future, save more money and food, and buy more land...
Shi Hu became more and more annoyed, and roared: "I won't go anywhere, whoever enters my house, I will kill the dog_day_!"
Stone Tiger is already strong and can win occasional fights with others. When he got angry, he went into the woodshed and found a hatchet. His parents were so frightened when he saw this, and relatives persuaded that the Khitan people came here with perseverance, and there were so many people that they could only die. His parents persuaded him and his relatives to go first. They watched at home, but Shi Hu did not leave.
At this moment, the outsiders jumped in a panic. The old man Shijia said that his son was the most important person in the family, and he was too anxious to cause trouble, so he found the rope, tied Shihu strong, and let his uncle's donkey cart take away.
...In the afternoon, there really was the sound of rumbling horse hooves outside. The old man Shi and the old woman bolted the doors and windows, held things against them, and hid in the house with a hatchet.
Not long after, I heard a "bang" knock on the door, followed by a loud "clang" sound. Old man Shi was shocked, holding the hatchet firmly against the wall and staring at the door. Suddenly, a few armored men rushed in. They looked at the hatchet in Old Man Shi's hand, and yelled. The front man carried the hammer on his shoulder. Suddenly, with a "swish", an arrow flew over, hitting the center of Old Man Shi's eyebrows, and he fell down without even screaming.
The woman was taken aback, and suddenly burst into tears on the body of Old Man Shi. A Khitan man came over, kicked her violently, grabbed the woman by the arms, dragged her out, and left her in the yard. On the dirt road outside, some pedestrian soldiers with only a small amount of iron on their bodies also rushed in and rushed into the house to look everywhere.
The woman lay on the ground, unable to move, and watched as a group of people led away the pigs and sheep in the pen, and others carried sack of grain out. Later, I didn't know anyone who threw a torch into the wood house. The firewood burned, and it quickly spread like a tiled house, and the whole house gradually ignited a raging fire.
... On the way to Xishan, Shihu broke free the next day and returned along the road. Before he got to the place, he saw thick smoke in the village. He hurried home and saw a few blackened earth walls still smoking inside, and nothing was gone... Shihu suddenly felt cold in his hands and feet. , Sad and angry. Hurriedly ran into the yard, saw his mother still curled up on the ground, hurried to help him up.
The woman saw Shihu and said with red eyes: "Your father is dead, dead... What are you doing when you come back, run away."
Shi Hu burst into tears, and helped him _niang to lean against the wall, hurriedly took a wooden pole, ran to the ruins, and finally found a startled corpse in the black ashes. He dragged the corpse out of the rubble and sat on the ground with a fart, crying loudly.
After crying for a while, he thought of the other person and ran out of the yard with a wooden pole. When I ran to the Xu family house, I heard a cry inside and walked in. I saw a mess in the courtyard, all kinds of sundries were thrown everywhere, but the house had not been burned down. A corpse stopped on the door panel, and an old woman was crying there, her eyes swollen from crying. Shi Hu stepped forward and saw that the dead person was an offspring, Xu Erniang's younger brother. He hurriedly asked: "Auntie, Erniang escaped?"
The old woman was still crying, she pointed her finger.
Shi Hu looked in the direction, it was a straw shed. He walked over and saw that there were some broken women's clothes inside, and there were blood stains on the grass. His brain buzzed, squeezed his fist on his forehead, turned around and choked up and said: "Where is the person?"
The old woman said: "It was robbed..."
Shi Hu was filled with grief and anger. He lifted the wooden pole and rushed out, surrounded by ruins. It took him a while to wake up and find someone to vent his shame and anger? What can I do if I find a Khitan?
……
On the Yizhou city wall, a heavily armored and heavily armed Jidu made Sun Xingyou stand there with a stern face, and a robe official next to him was speaking: "The Liao army is burning, killing, looting, looting, and Jishuai on our territory. Watching?"
The general said angrily: "This time the Liao people have entered the bandits not only to fight grass valleys, but at least tens of thousands of horses! I won't wait to defend Yizhou City. If the city is broken, you can have good fruit?"
Someone said: "Hurry up to Xiong and Ba Ercheng for help."
Sun Xingyou raised his head and took a deep breath, then turned his head and said: "It's useless. The Liao army enters the bandit, and the cities have to defend the town, and there is no force to mobilize to fight with the Liao army. Besides, who will lead the army? This matter, the commander has sent eight hundred li to report to the court urgently, and everything is waiting for your majesty’s decree."
He said coldly: "You will not disarm at night now, patrol the city defenses at all gates, catch spies, and beware of the Liao army seizing the city!"
The generals clasped their fists and said: "Here."
Sun Xingyou looked up and saw a blue flag fluttering in the wind with the two words: Da Zhou.
Suddenly heard the sound of singing, Sun Xingyou followed his reputation and saw that soldiers resting on the inner wall of the city were singing. Gradually, many people followed and sang, "Great Zhou warrior, come back to me. The blood will not drain. There is no truce..."
Sun Xingyou and the military officers around him said nothing.
At this moment, I saw a group of people with long poles coming from the post road under the city. There were no pedestrians around, just a crowd. Sun Xingyou and others watched alertly. After waiting for a long time, the group of twenty or thirty people walked down the city and raised their heads and shouted.
A military commander in the city shouted: "Who is coming?"
The current epilogue said: "Let’s join the army!"
The people in the city muttered, "Isn't it a spy that the Khitan people bought when I join the army?"
The general who shouted loudly said again: "Who is the person, who is the name?"
The queen replied: "The people of Shishuyuan, the family members were killed by the Khitan people, we will join the army to avenge..."
The military commander said: "Right now the whole city is under martial law and no entry or exit is allowed. You will come back in a few days."
The group didn't respond, but they didn't leave the city. A few arrows were shot from the city soon, and they retreated some distance. The person who had just shouted to the city was Shihu, who was at a loss when he saw it; another epilogue said: "The Khitan people are in Yizhou. The generals in this city are afraid to come out. They must be a bully! I heard about Tokyo. The emperor who had just ascended the throne was the one who killed tens of thousands of Liaoqi in Zhuozhou that year. We might as well go to Tokyo to impose an imprisonment!"
