Chapter 121: Ten Miles Away, Welcoming Zhongqing (Asking for Collection, Recommendation, Subscribe)
The Nua barbarians were defeated, and the materials and baggage they left behind were not much except for the war horses, but even so, just taking off the leather armor from the barbarians was enough for everyone to be excited, these leather armors were not only tough and material, but most of them were not much damaged, almost the same as brand new, and everyone in Zhile couldn't keep their mouths shut.
More than a dozen miles away from the border city, both sides of the road were already crowded with people who came to watch.
Each of them had a look of joy on their faces, as if they were happier than the warriors who had just killed the Noua, and the people crowded together, tiptoeing and stretching their necks, scrambling to catch a glimpse of Su Jun and his generals.
Among these people, in addition to some of the original residents of Qulan Town and the people of the border city, there are also some people who rushed from the inner city, and even the people from other counties have also come one after another, and both sides of the road have been crowded and impenetrable.
The people of Qulan Town who moved into the border city, when they first heard that the Nua cavalry had been killed, everyone sweated for the new county head, but they didn't expect that Su Jun not only killed the barbarians who came to attack the city, but also achieved a miracle of no casualties, and the excitement in the hearts of the people can be imagined.
From a distance, I saw Su Jun riding on the green shadow and walking slowly, I don't know which people took the lead and knelt on the ground, and the other people also knelt down with the black pressure, and an old man who was unwilling to move out of Qulan Town came out of the crowd, knelt in front of Su Jun's horse, and said in a trembling voice with tears:
"Old man, I'm seventy-three years old this year, I've been angry with barbarians all my life, this is coming, people who are about to die can wait until the day of breaking the Northern Barbarians, I'm willing to die."
Su Jun hurriedly dismounted, helped the old man up, bowed deeply, and said apologetically:
"It's because we're sorry for everyone and made everyone suffer, Su Zhongqing is here to make amends to everyone"
After Su Jun's words were finished, the people kneeling on the ground could no longer suppress the feelings in their hearts, and they cried to a large extent, and everyone remembered the grievances they had suffered over the years, as well as the children, brothers and sisters who died under the barbarian knife, and couldn't help but feel sad.
Su Jun pushed away Gao Meng, who wanted to support him, always maintained a bowed posture, quietly looked at the people who were kneeling and crying, and let them unscrupulously vent their inner dissatisfaction, which lasted for a long time.
Finally, the people had enough of venting, and someone shouted:
"From now on, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World in our border county will personally sit in the town to resist the Northern Barbarians, our good days are coming, and we are no longer afraid of barbarian dogs!"
"Yes, Your Highness, you must not leave us alone, you are our hope"
"Your Royal Highness, you won't go back after staying in Bian County for a while, don't go."
All the people began to talk in a round, and what they were afraid of now was not the barbarian army, but the question of how long the new county head could stay in the border county, after all, Su Zhongqing was the son of the world, and he would not stay in the north all the time.
Su Jun supported the old man kneeling at his feet with both hands, and said loudly:
"I, Su Zhongqing, promise the old and young masters here, because of the barbarian trouble, I will not leave the northern Xinjiang for a day, I must give everyone a peaceful and safe home, everyone get up"
With Su Jun's assurance, everyone kowtowed like garlic.
"Bang Bang Bang"
All the people's foreheads were red, and some of the people who had used too much force were bleeding from their foreheads, but none of them stopped.
For them, Su Jun does not represent a county head, it represents a hope, who doesn't want their children and grandchildren to live in a peaceful and peaceful environment, and who wants their descendants to be afraid all day long, living in war?
Su Jun's heartstrings were completely touched, it was the first time he encountered this kind of scene of tens of thousands of people sincerely worshipping, if at the beginning he pretended to be the son of An Ning just to get a way for his brothers to live, then now, he is gradually playing a real son of An Ning, completely integrated into An Ning, into the life of the border county.
He looked around, looking at the people who were kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, a little stunned, he didn't expect that he would get the worship of these people just because he rose up and did something interesting.
Perhaps, I should do more for these people.
At this time, Yan Qinghua, who was beside Su Jun, gently tugged at the placket of his clothes, and without saying much, she just gently spit out two words from her lips:
"The hearts of the people."
Su Jun's heart moved, and he immediately understood what Yan Qinghua meant, he took a step forward, helped the old man in front of him, and said:
"The Northern Barbarians have repeatedly violated our borders, killed my people, and injured my people, I, Su Zhongqing, hereby promise that as long as I am in the border county for a day, I will use my life to defend our homeland, if I swear to this, my head is like this!"
While speaking, Su Jun stood up, walked quickly to a small tree on the side of the road, formed a palm with one hand, and slashed at the small tree hard, only to hear a click, and the small tree broke in response, and the fracture was smooth, like a mirror.
The people of this era swore very much, and Su Jun's performance was like an oath, and the people on both sides of the road were stunned, and they didn't know who shouted loudly first:
"The general is mighty, peaceful and prosperous......"
Immediately afterward, tens of thousands of people shouted in unison:
"The general is mighty, peaceful and prosperous! The general is mighty, peaceful and prosperous......"
The shouts were endless, one after another.
Ji Nu, who was closely behind Su Jun, also joined the kneeling procession, landed on the ground with two thick arms, turned his face up, and said to Su Jun seriously:
"Master Su, the Sprinkle family apologizes to you for the previous incident, you are the most powerful general the Sprinkle family has ever seen, you are the hero of the entire Anning, the head of the Sprinkle family will be completely sold to you today, from now on, you will whip the Sprinkle family, and don't want to drive the Sprinkle family away"
Su Jun looked at his slave excitedly and did not speak, at this time his heart was surging, the qi and blood in his heart continued to surge, and the mood of being infected could not be calmed for a long time, he was not an easy person, but at this time, he was rendered by the atmosphere, and he especially wanted to ride his horse and whip, turn around and kill into the hinterland of the Northern Barbarians, and completely destroy this group of dogs and crumbs who were in trouble for the peaceful people.
Looking at Su Jun's slightly red face, with a desperate posture of wanting to find a barbarian, Yan Qinghua pursed the corners of her lips, grabbed the corner of Su Jun's clothes and whispered:
"Master Su, I am asking you to stir up the emotions of the peaceful people, why are you still giving yourself the whole play, don't be excited, calm, calm!"
Yan Qinghua is not a "femme fatale", she will not be swayed by her feelings at any time, she has always abided by the principle of putting her own interests first, and the hot blood in Su Jun's body was just about to start burning, but she was doused by her basin of cold water.
Su Jun brushed Yan Qinghua, who was charming and smiling, with his eyes, couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile, and led everyone into the border city.
