They came to Cao Shuo's residence.

Cao Shuo assigned the tasks of several generals.

The army is preparing for the evacuation of the five plains.

Of course, the people of Wuyuan could not bear to withdraw the army, but when the order was issued, the soldiers could only pack their bags and wait for the day of departure.

Several generals received orders before leaving from Cao Shuo's residence, and Ma Teng and Han Sui came to the door.

After getting the pass and knowing that the two of them were coming, Cao Shuo said in the house: "Two generals, please come in." ”

When Ma Teng and Han Sui entered the house, Cao Shuo got up to greet them.

He asked with a smile on his face, "Why are the two generals here?" ”

"Come and meet Childe and ask Childe how he plans to return to Xudu." After the two saluted, Han Sui asked, "Is Childe going back with the army, or just some guards?" ”

Cao Shuo said with a smile: "The army under my command are all soldiers from Huainan and Xuzhou, they are not the soldiers and horses of Xudu, and there is no point in returning to Xudu." I have already given an order for Tian Yuanhao to lead the army back to Shouchun after passing through Hebei. ”

He then asked Ma Teng and Han Sui, "What are the two generals asking for?" ”

Ma Teng and Han Sui glanced at each other, and Han Sui said to Cao Shuo: "If Gongzi doesn't take the army to Xudu, I'm afraid it's not good for the two of us to lead the army over." ”

Cao Shuo pinched his chin and said with a contemplative look: "The two generals don't say it, I really didn't think of ......"

Seeing him show such an expression, Han Sui and Ma Teng immediately understood.

The two glanced at each other, and Han Sui said, "Since Gongzi does not return to Xudu with troops, there is no reason for us to lead soldiers and horses." It's better that after passing Hebei, we will let Meng Qi lead the army to Xiliang first. ”

"The two generals don't bring soldiers and horses to Xudu?" Cao Shuo asked.

"No." Han Sui said: "But we are all in Xudu, I'm afraid we have to rely on Gongzi." ”

"Well said!" The two said that they would not take soldiers and horses to Xudu, and Cao Shuo said: "When you arrive in Xudu, I will bear everything for the two of you." Although I am not in Xudu, these things can still be guaranteed. ”

With Cao Shuo's approval, Han Sui and Ma Teng were somewhat relieved.

"Childe, this time we go to Xudu, how long will it take for us to return to Xiliang?" Ma Teng asked.

"I don't think I will ask you two to stay for too long." Cao Shuo said: "After all, there are still many things in Xiliang that can't be done without the two of you, my father understands the overall situation, and he will never embarrass you." ”

"If Gong Cao stays, how can we refuse?" Han Sui asked.

"I'll speak for the two of you." Cao Shuo grinned and said to the two of them: "With me here, the two generals just have to rest assured." ”

After receiving Cao Shuo's promise, Han Sui and Ma Tengbi were a little more relieved just now.

"What else is there for the two generals?" Cao Shuo asked.

His words were undoubtedly telling the two of them that he was busy right now.

has led the army for many years, how can the two of them not even have this bit of eyesight.

Han Sui hurriedly said: "Childe has a lot of affairs, and it is inconvenient for us to bother, so I will retire first." ”

"I'll send two generals." Cao Shuo personally sent the two to the door.

Seeing them leave, Cao Shuo instructed Cai Ji: "Send a few people to see how the soldiers are prepared." And the women we want to bring back Shouchun, and we also need them to be prepared. ”

Cai Ji responded and instructed a few guards: "Go and see if the soldiers are ready, and those women are also urging them to prepare for a long journey." ”

Several of the guards received the order and turned to leave.

While Cao Shuo asked people to see if the soldiers were ready, Tian Feng was taking care of the camp of the Central Plains women who had been taken captive by the Huns in the early years.

In the camp, the women stood in a mess.

"Come here." Tian Feng beckoned to them.

During the Xiongnu era, these women were treated like cattle and horses and allowed to be bullied by the Huns.

When they came to Wuyuan, the Xiongnu women were bound with ropes, but they were completely free except that they could not leave the camp.

The food that was eaten every day was delivered by the soldiers of Cao Jun.

Even if you want to take a bath, there is a special tub for them.

In Wuyuan, although the women are not completely free, their lives are much more comfortable than when they were in the Xiongnu.

At least they don't have to worry about killing someone by angering a Hun.

Tian Feng beckoned them to come closer, and the women leaned forward one after another.

The black pressed a sea of people, and the women were very worried, not knowing what Tian Feng was going to tell them.

When the crowd approached, Tian Feng shouted: "Gongzi wants me to ask you, how many people want to go back to their original home?" ”

A pair of eyes all looked at Tian Feng, and no one responded.

After being away from the Central Plains for too long, many of them don't know if their former home is still there.

There are also some people whose eyes lit up when Tian Feng mentioned his original home.

But what Tian Feng said next was like pouring a bucket of cold water on the heads of these women, making them tremble unconsciously.

"Gongzi also knows that your days in the Xiongnu have been too long." Tian Feng said: "Your home may not exist for a long time. Even if you go back, because after a long time in the Huns, your family will still be close to you, and whether you will think that you have made them lose face because of this, Gongzi and I don't know. But if you want to go home, Childe will send someone to escort you and try to find your relatives for you. ”

No one responded, and the women who wanted to go home did not believe that such a good thing would happen.

More women considered that they might not be able to survive after returning home, and lowered their heads one by one, not daring to respond to what Tian Feng said.

"If you are willing to follow Gongzi to Huainan, Gongzi and the soldiers will tell all the locals that you have migrated there from Hebei." Tian Feng said: "As long as you don't say it, no one knows where you came from, and no one knows what you have experienced. ”

The women present looked at each other one by one, and the expressions on their faces became very strange.

When they arrived in Huainan, people thought they were from Hebei, and no one knew what they had experienced in the Xiongnu, and no one would despise them for this.

"In a few days, many people like you will join in." Tian Feng continued: "The Huns came to sue for peace, and Gongzi demanded that they hand over all the people who had been plundered from the Central Plains. You can finally go home! ”

"Arrived in Huainan...... We ......" came a timid voice from the crowd.

Tian Feng said: "Childe knows what you are worried about, and he has already thought about it. When you arrive in Huainan, someone will settle you in the village and find your husband's house for you. All you have to do there is to live a good life and live well. ”

Listening to Tian Feng's words, the women only felt warm in their hearts, and no one had ever told them for so many years that they wanted them to live a good life and live well......
