Chapter 14 Heavy armor returns to his hometown

Zhou Kaiyang was stunned by the question, and he was extremely angry in his heart, but he didn't know how to attack.

Naturally, the nine soldiers did not dare to disobey the captain's order, and knelt in the snow in a row, their black armor clinging to their bodies, making their movements look a little sluggish.

"Take off your heavy armor!" Xu Chong shouted.

Whoa......

The nine black-armored soldiers took off their armor at the same time, leaving only a thin close-fitting cotton coat on their bodies.

Syllable!

The whip in Xu Chong's hand was thrown out abruptly and hit one of the soldiers, and suddenly on the soldier's back, a blood-colored mark spread through the beige cotton jacket......

"Captain Xu, be merciful to your subordinates, if you hurt them, wouldn't it delay the march?" Feng Qingshan said worriedly.

"Master Feng, do you want to be punished with them?" Xu Chong glanced at Feng Qingshan and asked with raised eyebrows.

Qin Hong pulled Feng Qingshan's shoulders and motioned him not to speak again, this Xu Chong deliberately made things difficult, and there was no emotion to talk about at all.

Bang Bang Bang ......

In the air, the sound of the twitching of the leather whip continued to explode, Xu Chong instilled Xuan Li, and the leather whip was blown apart, and the backs of the nine soldiers were all covered with skin and flesh, which was unbearable.

It wasn't until the guards of Wanbao Trading House couldn't stand it anymore that Xu Chong stopped and ordered several black-armored soldiers to quickly put on black armor, otherwise they would be expelled from the barracks.

Finally entered the Black Armor Army, several soldiers were naturally reluctant to leave, gritted their teeth, endured the pain and put on the armor, and the back was squeezed by the lace tear cut in pain.

Qin Hong and the others saw all this in their eyes from beginning to end, and they had even more disgust for Xu Chong in their hearts, although it was ostensibly to punish the soldiers, but the meaning of Xu Chong was obvious, that is, to take the opportunity to suppress Qin Hong and the others.

Qin Hong handed over a few healing pills to Zhou Kaiyang and motioned for Zhou Kaiyang to distribute them to several soldiers.

Zhou Kaiyang took the pill in Qin Hong's hand, his eyes showed a hint of gratitude, and then distributed a few pills to several soldiers, after swallowing the pill, the soldiers' complexion improved significantly.

After a short stop, the team continued on its march.

Along the way, through the vast mountains, stepping on the snow, on the sixth day, came to the bank of a large river.

This river is called Luoxing River, which passes outside Luoxing City, crosses the two states of Youyan, and extends to other kingdoms outside the Lantang Kingdom.

Seeing this Falling Star River, Qin Hong's thoughts were immersed in it, and an uncontrollable pain spread deep in his heart.

It is undeniable that until now, in the deepest part of Qin Hong's heart, there is still a trace of expectation, although he has frozen everything, but after the ice melts, the seeds of hope will still be released, unless it is completely killed, the last glimmer of hope in his heart will be cut off!

The river was frozen, and as far as the eye could see, Qin Hong touched the scene and couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother Qin, what's wrong, it seems that you have something on your mind?" Zhou Kaiyang stood beside Qin Hong and couldn't help asking.

Qin Hong shook his head, but the corners of his mouth were filled with imperceptible bitterness.

The Black Armor Army marched rampant across the frozen Luoxing River, then went straight along an official road, marched for another day, and finally entered the territory of Tongguan County.

The sorrow in Qin Hong's heart couldn't help but gradually dissipate with the joy of his hometown, and the laughter on his face became more and more.

"The front is about to reach Sanhe Town!" Qin Hong let out a long breath and glanced back at the marching team, hundreds of black-armored soldiers were still in good spirits after nearly ten days of long journey, the weather was quite good in the past two days, although there was no warm winter sun, but there was no snow.

In the early morning, the valley is so quiet that even the snowbirds hide and sleep.

A stream of small streams flowed down slowly, but there was no ice in this cold winter, and the white mist was bubbling on the stream, and the gurgling water made people feel refreshed.

"Captain Qin, Captain Qin!"

Beside Qin Hong, a girl's delicate whisper came from the sedan chair.

Qin Hong hurriedly reined in the horse rope, "May I ask what Miss Cui commands?"

"Master Qin, where are you going to be?" The girl lifted the curtain and suddenly revealed a delicate face, which was not like what the land of Youyan and bitter cold should have, but somewhat similar to the woman in the land of fertile fish and rice in the southern land.

"We're going to Sanhe Town in Tongguan County! Go around this mountain, walk seven or eight miles further, and we'll reach Sanhe Town, where we can rest for a while and adjust our rest!" Qin Hong replied.

"Hmm......" The girl nodded, her bright eyes flashing with rippling waves, "Master Qin, you are not very old, you have such strength, there must be many women who like you, right?"

Qin Hong was stunned for a moment, I don't know why Miss Cui asked so much, these days, Qin Hong and the three escorts also had some exchanges, but they didn't say much, and they didn't talk deeply, they only knew that the girl's surname was Cui, and there was another woman surnamed Xia, who was much older than the girl, and the other was a man, about sixty years old, the man was very silent and rarely spoke, but his attitude towards the girl surnamed Cui was quite respectful.

"What's the matter? Captain Qin, am I wrong? I wonder if Captain Qin has a spouse now?" asked the woman surnamed Cui again, but her eyes fell on the edge of the window on the carriage, after a night of freezing, a thin layer of ice was frozen on the eaves of the window, she stretched out her fingers, and kept sliding on the ice, she looked like a girl with no scheming.

Qin Hong seemed to see what Sun Weiwei used to be, but this thought flashed in his mind, people will grow, and the experience of time will change everything, including every old person he was once familiar with.

"I don't have a spouse!" Qin Hong withdrew his momentarily confused eyes, and said, "Miss Cui, if there is nothing important, you should lower the curtains, it's too cold outside!"

The woman surnamed Cui shook her head and said, "Brother Qin, don't call me Miss Cui, just call me Yingying, that's what my father called me when he was here......"

Speaking of this, Cui Yingying's eyes were red, and she was about to cry.

Qin Hong couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart, and faintly guessed in his heart that Cui Yingying was probably the same as himself, losing her father.

"Yingying, is your father gone?" Qin Hong asked.

Cui Yingying's tears suddenly flowed uncontrollably, she nodded, looking pitiful.

"Yingying, don't cry, Brother Qin, like you, died when he was very young! But Brother Qin didn't cry, Brother Qin wants to live strongly!"

Cui Yingying suddenly stopped her tears, and looked at Qin Hong curiously, on her face, there were still tears just now, "Brother Qin, is what you said true?"

"Hmm!" Qin Hong nodded and asked, "Yingying, how old are you this year?"

"I'm twelve years old!" Cui Yingying said.

Qin Hong nodded, he was even younger than Cui Yingying when he learned of his father's death, but the pain in his heart at that time was still so clear, Qin Hong's heart couldn't help but feel more sympathy for this girl named Cui Yingying.

At this moment, in the sedan chair in front of Cui Yingying, the woman lifted the curtains, looked at Qin Hong vigilantly, and shouted: "Yingying, hurry up and put down the curtains, the weather is too cold, what should I do if I freeze my body?"

Cui Yingying seemed to be afraid of this woman, stuck out her tongue at Qin Hong, and immediately lowered the curtain.

Qin Hong smiled slightly, retracted his thoughts, and swept his gaze to the woman surnamed Xia, but saw that she had already lowered the curtains.

Although Qin Hong was a little curious about these three people in his heart, he also knew that this was not his duty, and shook his head slightly, Qin Hong's gaze looked into the distance.

In the distance, the town of Three Rivers has appeared in the field of vision, surrounded by green mountains, houses are built next to each other, although it cannot be compared with the big city of Falling Star City, but although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs.

Qin Hong's mood also improved, and he was about to arrive in Sanhe Town, and he would be able to see his mother soon.

Before this march, Qin Hong had already read the map and knew that he was going to pass through Sanhe Town, so before he set off, he sent a letter to his home in Sanhe Town.

......

Approaching the town, the pace of the Black Armor slowed down.

But the iron-blooded aura exuded by the Black Armor Army made the people walking on the road retreat one after another, lest they get into trouble.

As residents of Youzhou, most people have heard of the Black Armor Army, and in their eyes, the Black Armor Army is brave, iron-blooded, brutal, and majestic.

The black armor army composed of three hundred soldiers, walking together, is already a visual impact, and the black pressure is like a black deep pool.

In the town of Three Rivers, the noisy crowd consciously separated into two rows with the arrival of the Black Armor Army, clinging to both sides, all of them looking at the Black Armor Army that suddenly appeared in fear.

Qin Hong, Zhou Kaiyang, and Feng Qingshan followed closely behind Xu Chong, and the four of them rode in the front, carrying spears and knives at their waists.

The people on the side of the road whispered.

"This is our black-armored army in Youzhou, right? A tall and majestic, majestic man, is indeed an iron-blooded army!"

"Look at that black armor, I'm afraid you can't split it with an axe, right?"

"And that black horse, with scales on its hooves, is a Wulin horse worth 100,000 taels of silver, right......? One BMW is enough for our family to eat and drink for a lifetime!"

The people around them were talking a lot, and naturally they were also heard by these black-armored soldiers, and on their faces, they naturally revealed a trace of arrogance, and their chests were also higher.

Not far ahead, in the crowd, there were two familiar faces, none other than Qin Hong's mother and her personal maid Qing Shui.

They received a letter from Qin Hong and learned that Qin Hong would return to Sanhe Town in the next few days, so they would come out every day to welcome Qin Hong home.

"Qing Shui, there is so much excitement ahead, is the Black Armor Army coming?" Cao Wanyue asked.

"Yes, madam! The Black Armor Army is here, they are all dressed in black heavy armor, so majestic, Qin Gongzi must be among them. Shimizu replied happily.

"I can't imagine that my son will be able to join the army one day!" A trace of pride appeared on Cao Wanyue's face, she was very happy to have such a son.

In the letter sent home, Qin Hong did not mention that he was already a centurion, in the eyes of Cao Wanyue and Qing Shui, Qin Hong was just an ordinary black-armored soldier, but even so, it made them very proud.

"Help me to the front, it won't be good if Hong'er can't see me later!" Cao Wan said.

"Okay, madam, be careful!" Qing Shui helped Cao Wanyue and squeezed forward.

"What are you squeezing? Can you afford to squeeze my new clothes?" In front of Qing Shui, a man who was flowing in anger turned his head and glared at Qing Shui, and when he saw the young and beautiful Qing Shui, his face suddenly showed a hint of lewdness.
