Chapter 244: Returning Home

In addition to making the covenant between the two sides more consolidated on the surface and suspending the construction of Chang'an City, Ren Yu did not have a big impact.

No matter how the ordinary people of Qi State feel, at least in Yang Hao's view, the relationship with Youyou is just a covenant.

If he really meets each other in the future, he doesn't want Ren Yu to end up well, but it is difficult to have perfect things in this world, and who can say the future path, sometimes the world is exhausted, and it is inevitable that he will fall into it in the end.

The disappearance of Ren Yu's team on the eastern horizon, Yang Hao sighed lightly.

The cold wind blew, and the back was a little lonely in the morning light.

A day later, the construction work, which had been delayed due to a visit, began again.

And the migration is nearing the end, and in the land controlled by Daqi, except for the surrounding population of the three cities, the rest of the land has become barren.

In addition to some laborers and soldiers building beacons in the border area, there are also human activities, and there are only a few remnants of the large area, which can be seen as if it was once inhabited.

Song, who has been serving in the army for two years, finally ushered in a three-month rotation after the departure of Youzhi, and this time the military gave them a seven-day vacation, and even the number of days of rotation for ordinary soldiers has changed from one day to four days of vacation.

This is definitely great news for soldiers who have been under high pressure for a long time.

Song was not in a hurry to go home, but took his military salary to buy a lot in Chang'an City, and took his two personal soldiers to return to Qicheng in a rented carriage.

Matsu couldn't remember the last time he was home, clutching his package, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

The two soldiers smiled at each other.

The flatbed carriage swayed along the rough road, and every few kilometers it had to stop and rest.

Sitting in the car for a long time in this cold winter is not something that ordinary people can bear.

After a short walk, get into the carriage and continue walking.

Within twenty miles east of Chang'an City, Song saw four or five towns under construction along the way, and looking at those ragged newcomers, Song suddenly felt that his current life was still happy.

At the very least, I have warm clothes to wear, so I don't have to go hungry like them and do all the heavy work in this cold and biting weather.

As the carriage faded away, towns and towns gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Platoon commander! Will those people be our people from now on? ”

A pro-soldier who looked to be only a teenager hesitated for a moment.

Song nodded and said leisurely: "En! Those people will be all of us from now on. ”

"I don't think they even have a decent place to live, it's getting colder and colder, and I don't know how many of these people will survive."

The young man sighed softly.

"What? Do you sympathize with them? ”

Song smiled.

And at this time, another soldier who was a little older smiled and said, "Platoon commander! This guy doesn't sympathize with them, don't you see, when we passed through a town just now, this guy looked at a woman's eyes, I see! The eyeballs are about to fall out! ”

"Oh!"

Song looked at the young man with a smile when he heard this.

Seeing the two of them looking at themselves like this, the young man's face couldn't help but feel a little hot, and he hurriedly defended himself, but he was on a boring journey, and it was rare to have an interesting topic.

The truth of stopping in moderation is also known, these two pro-soldiers have been with him for half a year, although they are not as close as brothers, but at least they are people who can be entrusted with their backs.

After laughing, he said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, those people are fine, how could the king and the officials not think of this, why don't we kill them, or let them be slaves, but let them live near the city."

It's that we Daqi want them to become people like us, our Qi people are righteous, and the purpose of arresting them is to help them, you must be clear about this.

But houses can't be built in a day or two, didn't you see that there was already food piled up in those towns?

Scold! Now that the food has been delivered, as long as these people are not too unlucky and in better health, they will have no problem surviving this winter.

Seeing that the young man looked thoughtful, he patted his shoulder and said: "Don't think about those useless people, you kid, since there are women you like, you boldly pursue others, as long as the woman is not married, is it possible that she still doesn't look down on the good sons in our army?" ”

The young man scratched his head when he heard this, and he smiled.

After two days of stop-and-go, Song finally returned to Qicheng, which he had not seen for a long time.

Looking at the frozen river in the distance, there are some people digging ice to fish, and halfway up the mountainside, the earth city looms in the forest, a winding path winds down the hillside, and in the distance on the plain, you can faintly see many people moving.

"Platoon commander, this is Qi Cheng?"

Song nodded.

"Yes! This is Qi City, but this place has changed a lot from when I left! ”

Song sighed, tidied up his clothes, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!"

The three men in brand-new military uniforms soon attracted the attention of the people who went out to work in the city.

When the three men passed, the people stopped, made way, stood aside, and looked at the three men in awe.

The three of them could feel respect for themselves from the eyes of these people, of course the people didn't know them, but the clothes on their bodies were known to everyone in Lao Qi.

They can have a peaceful life today because of the bloody battles of these soldiers.

The ancient ancestors were simple, especially the people at the bottom, who knew who was really thinking about themselves.

And the army of Great Qi is strictly disciplined, and there is no offense against the people, in this era, such an army may only be the Qi country.

With pride in their hearts, the waists of the three couldn't help but straighten a little, which was their glory.

When they came to the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city gate saw the rank on the loose clothes and hurriedly saluted.

He returned the salute and handed the bamboo slip signed by the military headquarters from the package to the officer defending the city.

Although the officer is illiterate, the identity of the person who can take out the bamboo slips with so many words written on them will definitely not have a problem.

"Meet Shangguan, I don't know what Shangguan is called, whether to let Xiaguan pass the county order!"

Song shook his head and said, "My name is Song!" There is no need to notify the county order, I came back this time just to take a break, just go home and take a look, no need to be polite! ”

Hearing this, the officer saluted with a solemn face and said, "The lower officer welcomes the platoon commander Song home." ”

Relieved a salute and said, "Thank you!" ”

The officer sighed: "Alas! In the battle of Chang'an City, the brothers were not able to kill the enemy with the robes, it is a pity, the lower officials have a request, if the platoon commander is free, can you tell the brothers about the bravery of the robes. ”

Song smiled: "I see that immigrants have been sent from the mountain, and those robes should tell about the events of the day!" ”

This officer may be a little familiar, and he smiled and said: "I've heard it, but Shangguan, when you talk about it, it's naturally different, every time the brothers want to come, they can't wait to fight with that Qi Xiao'er in person!" ”
