On the way, Xu Yan and Song Xiaoxiao concisely described the current situation in Xicheng.

Ling Xiaoxie listened very unreally.

So much so that when Xu Yan turned the conversation to him, he didn't know how to answer.

"Brother Ling, what do you say?" Xu Yan looked at him.

"Huh? ... I think Brother Song is right! Ling Xiaoxiao pinched Song Xiaoxiao's shoulder indignantly, "There are military advisors in Xicheng, it's enough." ”

Song Xiaoxiao looked at him continuously, "Have you listened carefully!" Brother Xu and I are talking about the era of peace!! ... Since you didn't hear clearly, then I'll repeat the question raised by Brother Xu again. If, what I'm talking about is if, one day the Qi country will unify the world, and there will be no more war in the world, take off the general's armor, what meaningful thing do you want to do? ”

Take off your armor and do something meaningful...

Ling Xiaoxie didn't say anything for a while, "I... I do not know. ”

"Okay~ You're a boring person."

"What about you? What do you most want to do? Ling Xiaoxie asked.

She?

Song Xiaoxiao wanted to do a lot of things, she picked up one of the most important and the most common said, "Get married, have children, and have a happy home." One day, when I was seventy or eighty, I was able to watch the sunrise and reflect the sunset with my loved ones in a small mountain village every day. In the evening, climb the ladder together to watch the bright starry sky..."

Ling Xiaoxie looked disgusted, "Hey, it's very old-fashioned, okay?" ”

"No, I think what Brother Song said is very fulfilling." Xu Yan, like Ling Xiaoxie, joined the army for his father at the age of fifteen.

From the day he joined the army, the war between the vassal states has never stopped.

In the first year of Xu Yan's military exploits, he was sent to Xicheng.

Before joining the army, Xu Yan had a wife who passed through the door.

In the second year of Xu Yan's coming to Xicheng, Dongcheng was seized.

That year, his wife gave birth to a son.

In order to give his wife and children a good living environment, on the second day after Dongcheng was destroyed, Xu Yan sent a carriage and horse to escort his wife and children back to Linzi overnight. I haven't seen each other for three years.

As a husband, Xu Yan has never fulfilled his obligations.

As a father, Xu Yan failed to watch his son grow up.

For those who have left their hometowns, Xu Yan looks forward to having an intact home in Song Xiaoxiao's mouth.

What is easy for ordinary people to get is like a difficulty for the soldiers who join the army.

The trio walked to their destination.

To the left of the tower there was a training ground, which was large and could accommodate tens of thousands of people.

Before Song Xiaoxiao entered the city, the large army was ready to go and placed here.

It was the first time for the two to come to Xicheng, and Xu Yan talked about the surrounding defenses from time to time.

Ascending to the top floor of the city tower, Song Xiaoxiao saw a dusty land.

After visiting the city tower, Xu Yan then went to the second floor.

The city tower has three floors, the first floor stores grain and grass, the second floor houses the soldiers in charge of guarding, and the third floor of the top floor is used by the main war to arrive, and the second is to send sentry surveys and transmit news outside the city.

It wasn't dark yet, and the corridors of the castle tower had already darkened.

Candles hang at intervals on both sides of the stairway.

Walking to the end, Xu Yan stopped, looked left and right at the doors on both sides, and finally smiled apologetically, "Brother Ling, Brother Song, there is something I forgot to tell you." There is only one room left in the garrison tower. ... Fortunately, both of you are men, and I will order someone to bring a quilt later. It's all colleagues, and it's okay to squeeze it. ”

Xu Yan opened the door, and it was clearly visible that there was a bed in the room.
