Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 466 Returning to the Army

Chapter 466 Returning to the Army
The army triumphantly pulled out the camp, and most of the people of Yanmen County fled to the deep mountains. After learning that the barbarians had been defeated, they all left the mountains one after another.

Some people who fled to various parts of Jinyang also came back one after another. With the joint efforts of the army, they built thatched houses. Although they were not as strong as the previous houses, at least they had a home this winter.

Batches of food were shipped in, and the winter food was distributed according to the population of the local people and whether there were soldiers in the family. It was such a sharp contrast that many people were full of envy.

Someone in the family who is a soldier needs a bag of grain more than them for no reason. Who can see it with envy.

In the cold winter, the land was vast, and the dry branches rustled in the wind. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers began to rush towards Yecheng.

haha~
The literati and military generals riding on war horses kept laughing heartily during the conversation. This decisive battle with the grassland barbarians was an unexpected victory, and it even showed the blood of the Han people.

In the cold weather, Lu Bu was wearing a gorgeous black dress and a black fleece jacket. Guo Jia in the carriage behind kept showing his head to look around.

The fields in various parts of Yanmen County were knocked down by the barbarians, and there was no time to collect them during the autumn harvest. Now there are busy people in many fields.

The [-] army was behind, and the [-] elite led by Lu Bu returned to Yecheng at the forefront.

On the country road, the snow all over the place has melted under the sun, exposing the vast land. When the army drove to a place, the people in the mountains and fields on both sides hid in the fields.

For the army, ordinary people are born with a feeling of fear and inferiority. This is the so-called concept of people not fighting against officials since ancient times.

The two young figures had just climbed up the hill and saw the black army, their young pupils were full of fear, and they hurriedly tried to dodge with heavy branches on their backs.

After Lu Bu saw it, he suddenly got off his horse, and the civil and military generals behind him waved their hands to stop the marching troops behind them.

The huge figure approached, making the two children even more frightened, but their cold and red hands were tightly grasping the dry wood on their backs.

"Kid wait~"

Lu Bu's gentle voice made the two children even more frightened and wanted to escape from here quickly, but they couldn't run faster than the adults' legs.

In just a short moment, there were people standing all around, which made the two children even more frightened, and Lu Bu was even more embarrassed.

"Child, you are so capable. How about I carry such a heavy dry firewood for you?"

"No! No! I can do it myself."

As soon as the two children turned a corner, they hurried to the path and walked. The heavy dry firewood weighed them down and they couldn't lift their heads. Lu Bu followed them and kept walking.

The soldiers and horses on the main road had already stopped. Lu Bu waved his hand to signal the army to stop and rest, and all the civil and military generals got off their horses and followed their lord.

It was inconvenient to ride a horse on a bumpy path. Guo Jia, who was in the carriage, stepped out of the carriage after seeing it, and rushed towards Lu Bu together under Zhao Yun's care.

"How old is this year?"

"Eight years old~" Lu Bu didn't listen to the question, and the two children kept on their way, and they said hurriedly as boys.

"Sister is seven years old."

Hehe~ Lu Bu chatted all the way, the two children gradually let go of their guard and began to chat, but Lu Bu's hands were always helping to carry the dry firewood behind the two of them out of sight, which made the two less stressed.

The generals of cultural relics who followed behind smiled wryly, especially after seeing Lu Bu's gesture, they could only slow down their steps and follow them hanging from a distance.

"Why don't you stay at home and come out to chop wood?"

"My brother and I have to take care of grandma."

grandmother!Muttering to himself at the corner of his mouth, Lu Bu said with a heavy hoarse face, "Didn't grandma have father and mother to take care of her?"

"Father died in battle, and mother died of illness last year."

A light-hearted word in the mouth of a young child fell into Lu Bu's ears, but it was extremely heavy, with a smile on his face, "Then how did father sacrifice?"

"Father died at Yanmen Pass this year to defend his family and country."

The two young bodies were walking bumpily with dry firewood on their backs, but Lu Bu's face was a little heavy, and the words of the two children reached the ears of everyone not far behind, and the group of people suddenly lost their joy.

"Where does your family live?"

The light voice asked, and the two children looked at the front happily and shouted: "It's not far, it's just ahead."

Not far!Those two words were heavy on everyone's minds. They walked along the path for half an hour, which meant that it was not far from what the two children said, but they walked for so long. It is cold and freezing, and if it is rainy, one can imagine how difficult it is to walk under the muddy road.

"What are the names of the two little dolls?"

"You talk first."

"Haha~ I'm an adult, I'm old enough to be your grandfather, you should be the ones to talk about it first."

The two children made sense when they heard it. The little girl was obviously more lively, and said cheerfully, "My brother's name is Chen Weiguo, and my name is Chen Fengzi."

Along the way, Lu Bu talked with him gently, and the two children's guard had long been put down, and they chatted acquaintedly, but most of them were Lu Bu who asked, and the two children answered.

After half an hour's journey, they saw a small mountain village with smoke rising from the kitchen. After the two children saw their home, they were even more happy and moved faster.

"Grandma~grandma~someone is here."

Although they got acquainted with each other, after seeing the home, the two children trotted back to the dilapidated courtyard with heavy dry firewood on their backs.

And with the arrival of Lu Bu and his party, countless people poured out of the small mountain village to look at this group of nobles with noble and distinctive armor.

An old grandmother walked out of the dilapidated courtyard, her eyes were a little bit bad, and she saw Lu Bu and his party from a distance, while the two children had already dropped the dry sticks on their backs and leaned tightly on the grandmother.

"Who are they?" The grandma asked in a low voice, protecting her granddaughter and grandson. The two children lowered their heads and whispered, "Grandma, they came here on big horses."

As soon as she heard riding a big horse, the old lady shouted with a smile on her face: "Oh, you two boys have met a nobleman."

Hastily stepped forward, the old grandma's eyes were a little cloudy, she squinted her eyes and kept looking at Lu Bu and his party, and shouted happily: "You are Lord Duyou, please come in quickly."

Although her face was full of smiles, the old grandma kept protecting the two children with her hands, obviously a little wary.

"A few days ago, the prefect sent two bags of food to the post." She said happily, and at the same time, the old woman squinted her eyes and vaguely saw Lu Bu's appearance.

It was even more certain that it was a high-ranking official. This scene made Lu Bu look back at everyone in embarrassment, showing a wry smile, and reluctantly nodding his head in agreement with the old lady's words.

 Sorry guys, I just woke up from the night shift last night, and the update was half an hour late, I hope you guys can forgive me
