War drums marked the beginning of a war between the entire nation and the mountain fire.
Fangzheng looked up into the sky. He was so tired that he could hardly breathe. The others were not any better, but the fire continued burning. It was as though it was mocking the feebleness of human strength. It could never defeat nature.
Just as Fangzheng's eyes went blank, a shout came from behind him. "Brothers, let's go!"
When Fangzheng turned his head, he saw a large group of soldiers rushing over. There were also some other young adults among them. These people brandished their tools and quickly chopped off large trees. They managed two people per tree, quickly felling a patch of trees!
The firebreak instantly expanded!
Fangzheng was dumbfounded. Where did all these people come?
Unbeknownst to Fangzheng, more students were being held back outside. If they charged in like a swarm of bees, it would be a shocking sight.
