In the autumn and winter of 1615, people were suffering from hunger and cold, their food reserves were exhausted, and they had no way to survive. In desperation, he and his father risked their lives to escape on the autumn night of 1616. They suffered from freezing and hunger along the way, and his father finally gave up his life and left him the last piece of food to survive. In the severe winter of 1616, Wang Quanyou narrowly escaped death and fled alone into the territory under the jurisdiction of Houjin.
Under this new regime, he unexpectedly gained vitality. In the later Jin Dynasty, "accounting for land allocation" was implemented to distribute land and houses and provide food rations. With perseverance and hard work, Wang Quanyou rekindled hope in the black land, worked hard to cultivate it, and his life gradually became stable. However, the war between Jin and Jin is inevitable.

He sacrificed his life on the battlefield and witnessed how Hou Jin defeated the many with less and reversed the situation of the war.
