Chapter XIII: War

After four or five days of boring travel, Oren and his family finally arrived at Montt Town. When Oron saw the big willow tree at the entrance of the village pulling out some young shoots, some childhood memories flashed in his mind from time to time.

The carriage drove slowly through Monte Town, and the residents of Monte Town were a little surprised when they saw the carriage that Oron was driving, because it was not the time for the caravan to arrive, and they were all a little curious about Oron's identity, but they did not come forward to ask, just watched the carriage pass slowly.

The town of Monte has not changed much in the years since Oron was away, except for the addition of a few houses to live in.

Oron looked at these familiar and unfamiliar things, slowly passing in front of his eyes, and his mind couldn't help but recall his childhood, although his childhood may not be very material, but he lived a very fulfilling life.

These familiar things in front of me carry my nostalgic childhood, when I was innocent, carefree, always playing around with my playmates, always making some childish actions.

As the carriage approached his familiar and unfamiliar home, Oron couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive and expectant. I looked around with some uneasiness. Bert saw Oron's sight and understood Oren's psychology at this time, so he comforted him and said it to him.

"It's okay, take it easy, your parents have been doing well all these years, and the things you often send to them with caravans have been delivered to them in time, haven't you occasionally received messages from them?"

Oron said to Bert after hearing his reassuring words.

"I'm fine, uncle, it's just that I haven't seen my parents for years, and I'm a little nervous."

When Oren was in Bossaicheng, he often learned about his parents and some messages they sent to him through caravans.

When he was an apprentice in the blacksmith shop, he kept a small part of the commission and the money issued by the city lord's mansion, and the rest were brought home to his parents by the caravan, and he also knew that his parents had lived a very stable life over the years.

A moment later, when the familiar and unfamiliar home in Oren's memory came into his eyes, the tension and anticipation in his heart also reached its peak.

After Oron stopped the carriage, he and Bert walked to the house with some hesitation, the old Yates and his wife were not at home, maybe at this time the electric field was taking care of the land, preparing for this year's cultivation, which is also what every farmer has to do in this season, after all, this is related to their livelihood this year.

Oron looked at the familiar and unfamiliar home, and there was not much change, except that the house had been roughly repaired and some furniture had been added, and there were still a few skewers of meat and some grain stacked under the eaves.

After seeing this scene, Oren also slowly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his parents had been quite stable over the years.

The two of them planned to clean up the house, and prepared to prepare dinner, waiting for the old Arte.

They didn't bring anything from Bosai City, after all, the purpose of this visit was to bring Old Yat and his wife to Bosai City together, so there was no need.

……

It's approaching evening. At the end of a busy day, when the old Yat couple were about to return home, before they got home, they saw the door of their house open and a carriage parked outside.

Both of them were a little nervous after seeing this scene, worried that some burglars might have broken into their home.

The two of them clenched the farm tools in their hands a little nervously, and slowly moved towards home. As soon as he walked into the house, he saw a man under the eaves packing up the grain that Old Yate had piled up there, and Old Yate saw this scene and raised the farm tools in his hand with some inwardness, and the man who appeared in his house shouted loudly.

"You hateful thief, get out of my house or I'll make you look good!"

Saixi on the side also held the farm tool in his hand tightly.

Bert, who was packing his things, heard the voice, and when he turned around and saw that it was Old Art, he said to them in surprise.

"Big brother, I'm Bert! I am back. ”

And walked slowly towards them. Old Art and the others were a little shocked when they heard this voice, and as Bert walked over slowly, they hurriedly dropped the farm tools in their hands and walked up quickly after seeing clearly. And said with some surprise.

"Bert, is that you? Why didn't you tell us in advance when you came back? ”

Immediately, the two brothers, who had not seen each other for many years, hugged each other tightly, and Ceci on the side only silently wiped his moist eyes after seeing this scene.

At this time, Oren, who was cooking dinner in the room, quickly put down what he was doing and walked out quickly after hearing the movement outside.

When this wanderer, who had not returned to his hometown for many years, saw his parents, saw their familiar figures, saw their somewhat rickety figures, and the wrinkles on his face and the pale hair that was more than half of his head.

The thoughts and guilt in my heart for so many years have long been unable to hide, and they instantly turned into tears and burst out of my eyes. Shouting at them.

"Father, mother."

Over the years, Oron has been studying and training in the City Lord's Mansion and has never had the opportunity to return to his hometown to visit his parents. I have always felt that I have a lot of guilt for my parents, but I have been silently hiding it in my heart.

Old Yat and his wife both turned their heads a little nervously after hearing the voice, and when they saw the figure standing at the door, they recognized it at a glance. It was their son, the son who had left him at the age of ten.

Despite how much he had changed over the years, they recognized their son at a glance.

Sisi asked with some trepidation.

"Is that you? Oren! Is it really my little Oren? ”

Over the years, the thoughts of my son have also gushed out, and I cried excitedly.

When Oron heard his mother's inquiry, he walked up quickly and hugged her tightly when he saw the tears in her eyes.

"It's me, Mother! Your little Oren. It's back. ”

Ceci just turned all these years of thoughts into tears, and the old Yat and Bert on the side also had moist eyes.

After hugging his mother, Oron pulled his mother to Old Yat and said to him in a choked voice.

"I'm back, father!"

Secy, who was on the side, pulled Olin tightly, afraid that his son would suddenly leave him again.

When Old Art saw this son who had been absent for many years, he looked at his strong body, and just slapped Oren's hand a few times, and said to him in a trembling voice.

"It's good to be back! It's good to be back! ”

……

Bert's eyes were slightly red as he looked at the family he hadn't seen for years. Looking at his eldest brother and sister-in-law's somewhat tired body, he hurriedly said to the three of them.

"Let's come in, big brother and sister-in-law, it's cold outside, it's warm inside."

After hearing this, Oren also hurriedly said to the old Yatou couple.

"Let's go inside, father and mother, it's a little cold outside."

At this time, the cold winter has not long passed, and it will still feel a little cold outside in the evening. Lao Ya also replied after hearing this.

"Alright, alright, let's go in and talk."

Ceci just took Oren's hand tightly and didn't speak.

……

Oren spent a few days at home with his parents, wanting to make up for the thoughts and guilt over the years, and also not wanting to leave regrets after he was about to leave.

Then they left Monttown with their parents. Leaving the hometown where they had lived for many years.

Oren, who returned to the city of Birsay, also accompanied his parents for a few days, took them to get acquainted with the city of Bosai and told them about his experience in the city of Bosai over the years.

As the holidays slowly passed, Oron also had to leave his parents and return to the lord of the castle where he had lived for five years. Oron didn't tell his parents about his upcoming war, he didn't want them to worry, so he just found a random reason and returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Oron also doesn't know what awaits him? In addition to his reluctance to his parents, there is also a trace of unknown throbbing in his heart, he believes! This was the beginning of his ambitions.

The day after Oron returned to the City Lord's Mansion, the others also returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

They all got together to discuss what was going to happen and to make some preparations and plans. The next day, when they came to the square, Mr. Purton was already waiting there. Mr. Purton said slowly after looking at them.

"Very well, none of you have let me down. I thought one of you wouldn't come back. ”

None of the people who heard this spoke, but looked at Mr. Purton intently. Mr. Purton then spoke to them.

"Sure enough, as the Baron said. The war is coming! ”

"A few days ago, Lord Baron received news that the Kingdom of Uss has officially declared war on our Kingdom of Farrant. And not just to compete for the large iron mine that had just been discovered. That's just an excuse. ”

In the past, the national strength of our two countries was about the same. However, with the kingdom of Uss growing stronger and stronger over the years. Their ambition to expand their territory has also grown. ”

"But our kingdom of Farrant is not easy to mess with. Since they dare to come, we dare to go. ”

"The border between the Kingdom of Uss and our Kingdom of Farrant is to the north and west, and according to the information obtained by Lord Baron, they also sent two large corps this time to attack from the north and west of our Kingdom of Farrant, which is also the place where the two countries border."

At this time, the large armies of both countries have not yet reached the front line, but the small teams of the two countries are already fighting, and we will soon be on our way to the battlefield, and we will go to the north of our kingdom of Farrant, because it is closer to us, and we can reach the battlefield more quickly. ”

Mr. Purton looked at the five who were a little nervous, and then continued.

"War is the best opportunity to make a difference. But it is the biggest evil, I don't know how many people have been knighted because of this, and I don't know how many people have been separated from their wives because of this.

I don't know how many people will stay there forever in this war, but I hope that when I come back, I will see you all do your deeds, and I hope that you will all become knights by then.

It will take some time to gather the soldiers, and I hope you will prepare well in this time to survive the battlefield. Alright, you guys keep training! ”

After Mr. Purton said to everyone, he slowly said as he stared at everyone closely.

"Finally! When the war is over, I invite you to drink! It's something I've treasured for a long time, and don't blame the people who stayed there for drinking it all! ”
