"Ping Guogong, we've been waiting for you here for almost five days."

A half-grown man said, pointing to the camp over there: "We have been eating and living here for the past five days, just to wait for you, I am afraid that you will not come again, I have finished eating the things given to the border army, hehe!" ”

Tang Ping's face was slightly moved, he also saw the camp over there when he came just now, and he originally thought that a caravan was temporarily stationed here.

I didn't expect it to be these people, who had waited for so long in order to wait for themselves.

"Old man, why is that?" Tang Ping was a little puzzled.

"I'm not afraid of Pingguogong's jokes, it turns out that I'm also a veteran."

"What's the joke about the old man being a veteran?"

"But I'm from the Great Sui!"

"Uh......" Tang Ping was stunned for a moment, and then smiled a little awkwardly.

"Actually, although I was paid as a soldier in Dasui back then, I think the hard work was the same." The old man seemed to like to reminisce about the past, Tang Ping was resting here anyway, and there was nothing to do, so he didn't interrupt him and let him continue.

"Later, the Great Sui worshipped, and the official government of the Tang Dynasty did not make it difficult for us, those who were in good health and were willing to stay in the Tang Army stayed, and those who were in poor health and older returned home."

"I thought that the days in the Tang Dynasty were the same as those in the Great Sui, and the people were all bitter words, but I didn't expect that the government would divide the land for us, lend us money to raise chickens and ducks, repair water wheels for us, and borrow ploughing cattle, hey, these days are getting better day by day."

Although the old man is old, he is still sharp-tongued, and when he saw that Tang Ping was willing to listen to him, he was happy in his heart, and he crackled and said.

"So the villagers in our village all say that there is a good life now because we are from the Tang Dynasty, and some relatives are in Miaoman and Dongyue, and the days they live are not as good as ours."

"So everyone is thinking about the good of Datang in their hearts! Isn't this an article published in the Datang Weekly a few days ago, and a literate doll in the village read it to me, I want to think about it, what's it called? ”

"The cutest person in Datang!" The half-sized boy interjected.

"Yes, yes, yes!" The old man squinted his eyes and nodded: "That's it, the cutest person in Datang, the life of those border soldiers is written in it, which reminds me of the situation of being a soldier in the past." That's right, what's the ...... What's good? ”

"There is no time to be quiet, but someone is carrying the weight for us."

"Yes, yes, yes!" The old man patted the half-sized boy's head: "That's it, the little baby has read the book, right?" Remember well, study hard in the future. ”

"There is also a sentence that says that they are the border army of the Tang Dynasty, but whose children and husbands are they?" The old man didn't forget this sentence, and when he said it, there was a trace of tears in the corners of his eyes.

"I only have two daughters at home, and I don't have a son, so I thought, why can we farm at home comfortably, go to the workshop to make money or do some small business? Isn't it because those border army babies blocked other Miao barbarians and Dongyue outside? ”

"No one in our family went to the border army, but now everyone is doing well, it's no problem to invite the border army's baby to eat a hometown meal!"

The old man raised the pickle jar and sausage in his hand: "I told the village about this, and the people in the village thought it was right, so I chose some people to send the things and waited for Pingguo Gong here." ”

Then he pointed to the people who came around: "Here are some from our village, some of them decided to stay and help after seeing us chatting here, and some of them came from other places when they got the news." ”

"We've been too far away from the border army, and we've caused trouble to the government on the road, so I want to ask Ping Guogong to bring our intentions to the border army, so that those border army babies can eat better and dress better. Please, Pingguo Gong! ”

"Please, Prince Pingguo!" The rest of the people held their things aloft and shouted in unison.

Tang Ping's mood was agitated, this is the people of the Tang Dynasty, or the people of China.

As long as they have food, clothing, and housing, if you treat them well, they will pay you back three points.

In fact, in addition to the people of Luoyang, Chang'an, many places have just escaped poverty, and they can eat three meals a day and two taels of meat a month.

These things here are definitely worthless in Tang Ping's eyes, but for these people, they have to save money for several months.

But now, they did not hesitate to bring the best things at home and asked him to bring them to the border army, just to let those soldiers guarding the border taste the taste of their hometown, eat more and wear more.

Tang Ping can actually not accept it, as long as he spends a little money, these things can be easily received from various chambers of commerce in Chang'an.

But he had to accept it now, because it was the sincere heart of these people, and it would be too hurtful if he didn't accept it.

"Xiang Long!"

"The subordinates are here!" Xiang Long is also a soldier, and his waist has never been so straight as at this moment.

Although he is not a border army, as a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, he feels honored.

"Take someone to take everything and register it!"

"No!"

Xiang Long stood upright and hammered the iron armor on his chest with his fist twice in front of those people to show respect.

And 1,500 Xuanjia riders also hammered their chests with their fists, and duangduang shook the earth twice.

A hundred people were divided among the Xuanjia cavalry, and these people lined up, and while receiving the supplies of their labor army, they wanted to record their names and where they came from.

As a result, the half-grown son was the first, and shouted loudly: "Big brother, you just write the Tang Dynasty, we are all Tang Dynasty people!" ”

"Yes, yes, we are all Tang people!"

When you ask them their names or something, they don't say anything, put down their things and step aside, waiting for the people behind them to come up.

Although these Xuanjia cavalry warriors are young, they are all selected from the elite of each army, and they can't help but have some corners of their eyes shining at this time.

I can only solemnly take the things, and then return a fist salute to show my gratitude.

"The hearts of the people of the Tang Dynasty are like this, why not be happy!" Wang Qingluan didn't know when he came out, and stood beside Tang Ping and said.

She was also once King Zheng of Dongyue, the heir to the throne, but she knew that even when her father was on the throne, the people of Dongyue definitely did not have such a strong sense of identity with Dongyue.

And Li Bai took a camera next to him and recorded all this.
