I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 91 Returning to Hometown with Honor
  The next day.

"General Su, I will trouble you in the next few months."

At the entrance of the military camp, Li Zheng raised his hand to Su Dingfang on his horse.

"You're welcome."

"I have been recuperating in the wounded barracks for so long, and the vanguard army is so powerful under your leadership. Don't worry, I will keep the vanguard army going."

Su Dingfang replied with a smile.

"Goodbye."

Li Zheng cupped his fists and raised his hands, then pulled the reins, and the black horse ran towards the outside of the military camp.

Three hundred personal guards also followed Li Zheng closely, galloping all the way.

"The emperor personally summoned him. Young Li Zheng really has a bright future!"

"I'm afraid I will be granted the title of marquis and become the prime minister."

"But he deserves it."

Su Dingfang looked at Li Zheng's heroic figure and sighed secretly in his heart.

It would be a lie to say that I don’t envy Li Zheng’s military exploits and the honor he has now spread to the world.

Who among the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty would not envy such military exploits?
  The war horses galloped in high spirits.

Less than half a day.

Li Zheng and his guard camp came to Changzhi County.

Changzhi County!

"It's been a year and I'm back."

Looking at the place where he grew up, Li Zheng's eyes were full of nostalgia.

This is the first time in his life that he has been away from his hometown for so long.

Just walked into the county.

Came to the only street in Changzhi.

Many residents were attracted by the violent sound of the cavalry's hoofbeats and came out of their homes one after another. When they saw the leader Li Zheng, wearing a unicorn armor and a black iron sword hanging from his waist, the neighbors gathered around him.

"It's Li Zheng!"

"It's Brother Zheng!"

"Folks, Brother Zheng is back."

"Brother Zheng is really back, look how majestic he is!"

"Brother Zheng is now a high-ranking official in the imperial court. He can no longer be called Brother Zheng. He must be called General Li!"

The neighbors started talking one after another.

Although Changzhi County is called a county town, it is located on the border and has a population of only a few thousand. Everyone has lived here together for decades, so they are all familiar with each other.

"Zhao Ming, Wu Yuanlong, you two follow me into the city."

"Brother Lin Chong, you and the other brothers from the guard camp should be stationed outside the county town."

Looking at these familiar villagers, Li Zheng immediately gave instructions to his three most trusted subordinates.

"Yes."

"Subordinates obey!"

Zhao Ming and Wu Yuanlong followed Li Zheng.

Lin Chong respectfully accepted the order, withdrew from Changzhi County with his guard battalion, and set up camp outside the city.

Li Zheng also got off his horse and led the Wu Zhen horse slowly toward Chenjingfang's home.

Zhao Ming and Wu Yuanlong also dismounted consciously and followed Li Zheng.

"Uncle Wu."

"Aunt Chen."

"Mr. Liu, are you still healthy?"

"Aunt Qian, long time no see!"

"Uncle Zhao, is the business at the cloth shop okay? I'll come back to you to buy cloth later!"

"Yeah, I've been out for a year, how good are you..."

Looking at the familiar faces on the street, Li Zheng led Wu Zhenma to say hello one by one.

"Ahhhh."

"Let me tell you, we have watched Brother Zheng grow up. He will never forget his roots. He will not recognize us poor countrymen until he becomes a high official."

"You're right. It's not easy for Brother Zheng to be so polite when he has become such a big official!"

"Really, Brother Zheng has made a difference, that's great!"

"I didn't expect that in this poor place on our border, a Tang Dynasty God of War could emerge, and he could be compared to some kind of champion in ancient times. It's really amazing!"

"Brother Zheng is now a glorious ancestor. It's a pity that his mother is gone and his father is also..." A group of villagers gathered around Li Zheng and said with a smile.

It is not difficult to see that these villagers did not have so many twists and turns, but they all expressed their blessings to Li Zheng from the bottom of their hearts.

"Dear uncles and aunts, I haven't been home for more than a year, so I will go back and take a look first."

"At night, I invite all the neighbors on the street to have dinner and drinks together."

"Everyone must come!"

"I will be waiting for all the uncles and aunts to come..."

Li Zheng smiled and said to the villagers surrounding him.

"okay!"

"Your Mr. Zhou has been worried about your brother Zheng this year. You'd better go back and take a look."

"Go quickly, we won't delay your business."

Everyone said.

Li Zheng nodded and led the horse slowly towards Chenjingfang.

Zhao Ming and Wu Yuanlong were like two bodyguards, following Li Zheng on the left and right.

"It's only been a year, Brother Zheng has changed so much. Look at that suit of armor and that sword, how majestic it is!"

"Although he is still as polite to us as before, his temperament has really changed. He has a kind of, how should I put it, the murderous aura of a soldier? It's so depressing."

"He is now a third-grade general. Of course his temperament is different. Do you think he is jealous?"

"Brother Zheng was able to achieve such feats on the battlefield with a narrow escape from death. He was able to come back alive and obtain his current official position. It was really his dead mother's protection. It's a pity that his mother, Lin, can no longer enjoy his blessing."

"Oh, Brother Zheng can come back alive, this is a blessing from heaven!"

"..."

Soon.

More than a year passed.

Li Zheng once again returned to his home - Chenjufang, the home where he had grown up since he was reborn in this world.

The entrance of Chenjingfang.

Zhou Fusheng seemed to have heard the news from the villagers, so he opened the door and ran out quickly.

into the eye.

I saw Li Zheng with bright armor.

Leading a black horse, followed by two soldiers in armor.

"Brother Zheng, you are finally back."

Seeing Li Zheng again, the only person he regarded as a relative, tears flowed from Zhou Fusheng's eyes.

Although he already knew the news that Li Zheng was safe a few days ago, he still felt uneasy without seeing it with his own eyes. Now he finally got what he wanted, his brother Zheng was really safe and sound.

"Grandpa Zhou."

"I'm home."

Li Zheng stepped forward with a warm smile on his face.

"Just go home!"

"Just go home!"

Zhou Fusheng wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and a joyful smile appeared on his face.

"Grandpa Zhou."

"I just told the folks that I will hold a big feast tonight to entertain all the neighbors and treat them to a good meal."

"It can be considered as repayment for the care the villagers have taken for our family over the years."

Li Zheng supported Zhou Fusheng and said.

"Hahaha."

"Brother Zheng, let's go together. I've told the folks a long time ago that as long as you come back safely, our family will treat all the neighbors to a feast."

"Come here, let's celebrate Brother Zheng for your rise to prominence and your promotion to a noble rank."

"Secondly, it's just for you, Brother Zheng, to take over and wash away the dust."

Zhou Fusheng replied immediately.

"Grandpa Zhou is still thoughtful."

Li Zheng said with a smile.

Over the years, especially after his mother passed away, Grandpa Zhou has always helped run the house. When he was at home, Li Zheng didn't have to think about anything else except brewing vinegar.

Grandpa Zhou takes care of everything.

Same now!
