Chapter 117 War
 
It is a woman's nature to love beauty. Hearing her husband praise herself, Chen Miao also felt sweet in her heart. She put her arms around Pei Jing's neck gently and said softly, "Then I will become ugly when I grow old in a few years." , will you dislike me?"

  "Silly girl, even if you and I are old with white hair and lost teeth, you will always be the most beautiful daughter-in-law in my heart!"

Everything seems to be peaceful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, neither rich nor poor.

It's just that there is always an unusual calm before the storm.

This kind of tranquility didn't last long, and just as autumn was approaching, a news gradually spread in Yunzhou City.

The country of Mo is about to go to war with the country of Rui.

Yunzhou City originally belonged to the junction of Rui Country and Mo Country, and the border with Mo Country was only more than three hundred miles away.

The country of Mo and the country of Rui was originally considered a feud, but because of years of fighting, the people's livelihood and national strength are not good.

In order to ease the relationship between the two countries, the previous ruler of the Mo country married a princess and came to the Rui country, so there was a cessation of war between the two countries for nearly 30 years.

At the beginning of the year, the Mo Kingdom must have felt that its national power had almost recovered, and the half-provocative and half-testing little nuisance disturbed the border, and was expelled by thunderous means by the new prince who had just come to power.

The people of Yunzhou City seem to be used to living a peaceful life for a long time, and they are extremely unfamiliar with the word war.Even the so-called "war" at the beginning of the year was spent without pain or itching.

But this time the battle between the Mo Kingdom and the Rui Kingdom did not seem to be a trivial matter.It didn't take long before many traveling merchants from the border of the Mo country brought news. They only said that the border has now become a battlefield for Shura, with countless deaths and injuries every day. Send troops to support.

The news this time was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, which immediately caused large ripples.

As soon as the news was spread, it was spread in Yunzhou City instantly. Some people even said that Shuo City on the border was about to fall, and the iron cavalry from Mo Kingdom would soon attack Yunzhou City.

Although I don't know if the news is true or not, but within a day or two, some people really started to clean up and move their families.

The pastry shop's business was declining day by day. In order to reduce waste, Chen Miao reduced the amount of production by half, and the daily closing time was getting earlier and earlier.

Even so, she didn't stick to the incident for too long. Seeing that the daily long street was much deserted and withered compared to the past, Chen Miao felt a little uneasy in her heart.

Back home that day, Chen Miao asked Pei Songde what his plans were now.

Pei Songde's eyebrows were tightly frowned, and Lu's face was also worried. Nowadays, the rumors are becoming more and more serious day by day, and everyone is panicking, but if they really want to move, where should they move?
If the people of Mo country really entered Rui country, if Rui country really fell, then no matter where they moved, it would not be a safe place.

Pei Songde pondered for a long time before telling everyone this idea, and finally said: "Yunzhou City is our hometown and homeland. It is difficult to leave the homeland. I will not move away. What's more, protecting the family and the country is what every man should do. , if I really need to go to the battlefield, then I will go to the battlefield to kill a few Mo people even if I have exhausted my old bones!"

Pei Jing glanced at Chen Miao with a smile, squeezed her hand tightly, and said loudly: "Father, if you want to go to the battlefield, bring me with you!"

Pei Songde smiled in relief, and patted the eldest son's steady shoulder heavily, "Okay!"

His son has finally grown up, no matter what happens in the future, at least at this moment, he is finally relieved.

Chen Miao and Lu's looked at each other with complicated emotions, and no one stopped him. The men of the Pei family had a natural stubbornness and stubbornness in their bones. Once they made a decision, they would not change it.

The matter of joining the army did not make Pei Jing and the others wait for a long time. Early in the morning of the third day, the government office posted notices all over the city, and the conscription began.

Accompanied by Chen Miao, Pei Jing went to the conscription office to sign up.

Pei Songde also went with him.

When they got there, they were stunned by the scene. The conscription office was overcrowded, and the few soldiers who were in charge of signing up were too busy to raise their heads.

Pei Songde said with emotion: "It seems that most of the people in the city want to defend their homes and the country."

An old man standing beside him interjected: "That's natural, Yunzhou City is our home, how can we just watch foreign enemies invade us!"

When Pei Songde heard this, he felt very cordial. Seeing that the old man was also queuing up to sign up, he couldn't help smiling and said, "My brother also wants to sign up to join the army?"

The old man smiled and said: "Yes, don't look at me as an old bone, but if you pick up a knife and gun, you can still chop off a few good heads of Mo people!"

Pei Songde talked about the sky with the old man, but here Pei Jing and Chen Miao held hands tightly, the two cuddled each other, neither of them spoke.

Seeing Chen Miao's worried face, Pei Jing knew that she was worried about herself, so she hurriedly smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, if it was me back then, you might really worry about me, but now I have martial arts. Waiting for seven or eight people are not my opponents, on the battlefield, those people from Mo country will not be able to get cheap from me."

Chen Miao sighed softly: "The battlefield is not a child's play. Even if you have learned kung fu from Brother Ye Feng for a while, it is only half a year after all. What's more, it is not a one-on-one fight. How can I not worry about the wheel battle of tens of thousands of people."

Pei Jing sighed softly: "Miao'er, for you, I would not lose my life on the battlefield so easily, you must wait for me to come back."
