I rode and slashed unparalleled in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 448: Su Junhou's Post-War Visit

The Han army won a great victory.

Thanks to the resolute resistance of Taishi Ci and others, the powerful deterrence of the Red Cloud Knights and the heroic performance of Guan, Zhang and others, the looting operations of Subudi's tribe in Liaodong finally came to an end in Tianjia Village.

Under the pincer attack from Cheng Lian's ambush team and Guan and Zhang, the morale of the Wuhuan raiders finally collapsed. They lost their last organization and fled in all directions under the cover of night.

In this battle, the Han army not only achieved more than 600 captures, but also recovered and collected more than 2,000 war horses.

This made Su Yao, who had just come from Changli to chase, feel very relieved, and he secretly said that it was not bad.

It’s really a good thing that he didn’t go out in full force this time, but left some people to guard the house.

Otherwise, if that damned Su Bu Die really plays a trick on us, it would be a huge loss.

But even so, the damage caused by the war still exists, and only time can repair it.

A few days later, Tianjia Village, Liaoyang County.

Su Yao stood in front of the army and looked around the village.

After the disastrous war, the villagers have begun to rebuild their homes.

Among the ruins, the surviving men were busy clearing the rubble, the women were repairing the damaged houses, and even the children were helping to the best of their ability.

Although the village suffered heavy damage, the expressions on the villagers' faces showed that they were not defeated by the disaster.

Everyone is doing their best, and they believe that in the near future, they will use their own hands to make Tianjia Village revitalized again.

The villagers were obviously startled to see the sudden appearance of the army.

However, he soon felt relieved after seeing the fluttering Han flag with the word "Su" on it.

"The Han army is coming!"

"It's the Lord's army!"

"Quick, go and meet them!"

The villagers put down their work, excitedly called their friends, and walked quickly towards Su Yao and the Han army. The children ran in front excitedly, cheering as they ran.

Although they only watched from afar that day, the large Su-shaped flag and the figure of the red-robed knight had already been deeply imprinted in everyone's heart. They knew that it was this heroic army that brought peace and hope, and allowed the villages that had suffered from the looting of the Wuhuan to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Lord, for leading the army to rescue me. Saving me is like saving me from fire and water!"

At the entrance of the village, several surviving elders paid great tribute to Su Yao on behalf of the entire village, expressing their gratitude beyond words.

In response, Su Yao smiled and helped the old people up, saying that there was someone else they should be grateful to:
"As the governor of Liaodong, it is my duty to protect the people."

"This victory belongs to everyone. It is the result of everyone's concerted efforts and the heroic fighting of Cheng Sima and Guan Zhang, the two Cao officials."

After saying that, Su Yao also promised that he would help everyone rebuild their homes as soon as possible, reduce taxes, etc., so that the peaceful life here can be restored as soon as possible.

After hearing this, the villagers bowed again to express their gratitude.

Guan Yu stroked his beard and said:
"Your Excellency, I really praised you so much just now."

"We were able to catch up thanks to a brave man in the village who was fearless in the face of danger and fought bravely, leading the villagers to resist tenaciously."

"If they hadn't bought precious time for the army, even if we won, I'm afraid there would be nothing left in the village."

A strong man, that's right.

Su Yao went to great lengths to delay the pursuit and came here for a walk. His real target was of course the mysterious warrior.

Just as Taishi Ci saw Guan and Zhang galloping bravely, Guan and Zhang also saw Taishi Ci fighting bravely under heavy siege.

"There are such brave warriors here?" The two were very surprised at the time, but what was more important at the time was the enemy in front of them, so they didn't care about much.

When Su Yao arrived, he heard them talking.
Wow, someone actually could get praise from Lord Guan?
Then I must take a walk around.

"I wonder which warrior is so brave?"

Immediately, Su Yao expressed his desire to meet this person and not let the pearl be obscured by dust.

However, the villagers who had been so excited just now looked at each other in bewilderment at Su Yao's request.

They knew very well that Taishi Ci was living in seclusion to avoid disaster and did not want to reveal his identity.

Just now, when they ran out to greet them, Taishi Ci himself went against the crowd and quietly hid behind the big tree.

Seeing the villagers looking embarrassed at this moment, Su Yao immediately realized the subtlety and knew that he had come to the right place.

"Could this warrior be Taishi Ci from Donglai?"

The villagers were shocked when they heard this.

I didn't expect that the new Lord of the Mansion would reveal the secret in one sentence. Could it be that they met their enemies and came here to seek revenge?

The villagers were so frightened that they dared not say a word. Only the young children spoke without restraint:

"Brother Ziyi is a good man, Governor, please don't arrest him."

What a confession.

The child's father's face suddenly turned green.

Su Yao almost laughed out loud when he heard this.

But of course he would not take this matter seriously. He squatted down, touched the child's head, and said in a slightly gentler voice:

"Don't worry, little friend. I, the governor, am not here to arrest anyone."

"I admire the bravery of that warrior and want to express my respect in person."

As he spoke, Su Yao stood up and glanced at everyone:
"I, Su Yao, hereby assure you that I will never hold the warrior Taishi Ci responsible for his past."

"On the contrary, Liaodong is in chaos and in need of people. If he can lend a helping hand and help me protect this land, I, Su Yao, will definitely treat him as a distinguished guest and make great use of him."

After hearing this, the villagers' tension gradually eased and they began to believe in the sincerity of the new Lord.

An elderly villager bravely said:

"Master, Taishi Ci is indeed here, but he has always kept a low profile and doesn't want to cause any trouble. If you are truly sincere, we are willing to convey your intentions on your behalf. Do you think that's okay?"

Su Yao nodded, took out a token from his arms and handed it to the elderly villager:
"Please give this token to the righteous man Taishi Ci, and tell him that if he wants to see me, he can come to me at any time with this token, and I, Su Yao, will welcome him."

The villagers took the token and said they would definitely pass on the message.

Seeing this, Su Yao nodded with satisfaction, then said goodbye to the villagers and prepared to return to Xiangping. After a short rest, he continued to wipe out the remaining enemies.

On the way out of Tianjia Village, Guan Yu couldn't help but sigh:

"Your Excellency really loves talents as much as his life, and he doesn't even let go of a hermit like this."

Su Yao smiled but said nothing.

This Taishi Ci was not only loyal and filial, and had a strong sense of faith and righteousness, but he was also skilled in archery and horse riding, and his fighting ability was no less than that of the Little Overlord Sun Ce.

This powerful character happened to be in his territory right now, and was still in the wild. If he missed it, he would have to die.
