In the wilds outside the city in spring, the "flying boat" dragged by giant birds moved slowly in the sky, casting a shadow on the ground.
The refugees shrouded in its shadow were anxious and uneasy. Some wanted to flee, but were forced back by arrows shot "swoosh" from the flying boat. Others cried out in fear:
"It's the Liao people..."
"A recruitment team?" Zhao Douan mingled with the crowd, appearing inconspicuous, and curiously glanced at Yu Xiu.
The female Taoist squinted at the flying boat in the sky and explained:
"As far as I know, the Liao Clan has a small population, hence there is a tradition of 'recruitment' when they go to war.
In the Great Territory, when various tribes have conflicts, they often drive many tusk beasts into small-scale battles to minimize casualties.
In certain historical conflicts with the Yunfu people, it's said they also liked to drive the border people ahead of the Liao warriors, causing the soldiers of Yu Country to be hampered."
