Du Qi’s army stopped to rest, and the sky was already bright. All the soldiers were quite exhausted because they had been fighting for a few days in a row, and they were fighting with all their strength. Now they are stationed to rest, all soldiers are relaxed and open to rest.

Xue Rengui and the others, but extremely busy.

Because of the loss.

Everything must be registered in order to facilitate the pension and rewards after returning to Gaochang.

When Xue Rengui, Ma Yuan and others were busy, suddenly a soldier came to Du Qi’s camp and reported: “My lord, hundreds of people have arrived outside the camp, saying yes I want to see the king. These people are still rushing to the flock, and the lineup is very large.”

Du Qi said: “Go, go and take a look.”

He was a little surprised.

Why are the people here?

Du Qi brought Mulledo, Guan Zhilan and the others to the entrance of the camp. At this time, busy Xue Rengui, Ma Yuan, Shangguan Yi and the others also followed, and everyone knew the news.

Du Qi walked to the entrance of the camp, but saw that there were already densely packed people outside the camp. In addition, behind these people, there are many flocks of sheep, with the sound of lambs bleating, and the scene is quite chaotic.

Du Qi stood at the entrance of the camp, his eyes swept over the people on the scene, raised his hand and pressed down to signal the people to be quiet. After a while, everyone stopped talking, only the sound of the flock’s neighing.

Du Qi said: “This king is Du Qi. The folks gather here. Who of you is the leader.”

He directly connects with the leader.

Because there are too many people gathered at the entrance of the camp. If one by one said, I am afraid that Du Qi would not be able to ask a Zi Chou Yinmao, but after Du Qi asked, an old man who was nearly seventy years old came out with a cane.

He has hair and beard all white.

And his back is rickety.

But the old man’s clothes are clean and clean. Although they are not luxurious and beautiful, they are simple and simple. When he saw Du Qi, he bowed and saluted: “Little old man Mo Qiu, pay homage to the king.”

Du Qi said: “Mo Lao doesn’t need to be polite.”

Here, Du Qi said: “Where is Mo Lao from? A group of you come to the barracks, especially the flock of sheep here, but what’s the matter?”

Mo Qiu bowed and said:” Reporting back to King Xia, the little old man is from Sanxia Village in Rouyuan County. Our Sanxia Village is near here, less than Liuli Road. There are more than 100 households in our village, which is the largest village nearby. Little old The man is not a talent, he is the elder in the village.”

“In this Tang State invasion, King Xia was first assassinated, and then King Xia led his army to resist and fought hard against the Tang Army. The little old man thought, We can live well because of the kindness of King Xia. Without King Xia, we would not be where we are today.”

“I think a few years ago, our Sanxia Village was extremely poor in Yizhou.”

“Every family has a hard time.”

Mo Qiu said: “Because King Xia came to Yizhou, the big guy’s life is better and he can have more money. Now King Xiahe We can’t help Tang State fight, so we are thinking about sending some food to King Xia.”

“These days, we have been raising meat.”

” And some flocks.”

“No, we just got ready and drove the flocks out. Didn’t expect to get the news that King Xia had defeated the Tang Army and had begun to withdraw and return. Only if King Xia camps here, we can come and join.”

” King Xia, besides the people of my Sanxia Village, there are also people from more than a dozen surrounding villages. There are a thousand people. Two hundred and twenty-eight people, we gathered five thousand goats. In addition, we also prepared some meat and dry food, which will be delivered one after another.”

Mo Qiu said: “I beg King Xia to accept it. “

“Wang Xia, please accept it.”

In the crowd, another person followed.

“King Xia, please accept it.”

“King Xia please accept it.”

The shouts one after another echoed in the air.

More and more people shouted together. Although only a thousand people shouted together, there was no resolute and decisive spirit, no imposing manner like a hot knife through butter, but it represented all the people. The heart of boxing represents the gratitude of all the people.

Du Qi looked at the people, but a deep sense of pride rose in his heart. Because of this scene, it represents his administration in Xia Country, which is supported by the people and recognized by the people.

Du Qi waited quietly. After a long while, all the people stopped talking. Du Qi said: “The heart of the villagers, I thank you, thank you. “

While speaking, Du Qi bowed to thank everyone, and when Mo Qiu saw that Du Qi was so polite, he also hurriedly declined, and the people said it was unnecessary. At the same time, Mo Qiu waved his hand, and the people had begun to step forward, bringing sheep one after another into the barracks, and giving the sheep to the soldiers in the army.

About one hour, the handover is complete.

Mo Qiu bowed and said: “Xia Wang, I’ll wait to say goodby.”

Du Qi said: “Mo Lao, since he is here, why bother to leave. Folks It’s a rare visit. I arranged for someone to kill all the sheep and have meat and soup together tonight. Although there is no alcohol in the army, it is good to have meat and soup and talk together. Moro and the others Heart, I am grateful, please don’t refuse.”

The people are kind, if Du Qi let people go, it would be too bad. Now that the people are coming, Du Qi keeps these people for a meal, which can make the people back home.

It’s just a sentence.

Mo Qiu hurriedly said when he heard: “Xia Wang, it doesn’t have to be this way, it doesn’t have to be this way. I’m here to deliver the mutton, to reward the soldiers who fight, how can I eat with the soldiers.”

Du Qi said: “What can’t be, because you are here to deliver the sheep, only the soldiers can eat it. The soldiers in this army must be grateful to you. This is all set, we all eat together.”

Mo Qiu didn’t decline after hearing this.

He immediately notified, and all the people were excited when they heard it. All the people who gave lamb and meat food never wanted to stay. But now Du Qi keeps them and invites them to stay for food, they are more grateful to Du Qi.

Du Qi let people kill sheep and dealt with dead horses. There are war horses that died in battle on the battlefield. It is a pity that these horse meats are thrown away, so these war horses were originally in the army and were processed with the lamb.

There are enough men in the army, and the people are actually helping, so the processing is quick. Before it gets dark, everything has been processed and cooking begins. With the cooking of mutton and horse meat, as well as the processing of pasta, rice, etc., the whole camp is lingering with the fragrance of the food.

There is also a torch in the camp.

All the soldiers, all gathered in the empty school field in the camp.

More than 100,000 people gathered together.

Some of this group of people returned with Su Dingfang. These people have never participated in the war, but now they are all under Du Qi’s subordinates.

There are dozens of people in the army, and they are very lively.

The entire school grounds are as bright as daylight.

At a glance, the dark crowd was overcrowded, but all of them were filled with joy and pride, and all the meals had been presented individually.

Tonight’s meat is all in charge, so everyone’s meals are full. Although there was no drink to add to the fun during this meal, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves after the final meal.

Because the sky was getting dark, Du Qi asked the people to stay to rest. They waited until the early morning of the 2nd day before they left. And Du Qi’s army rested for a day and set off to return.

However, when the army was advancing, Du Qi specially called Su Dingfang to his side, preparing to arrange Su Dingfang’s position. Because I had been busy before, there was no time to arrange arrangements. Now that the matter is over, Du Qi can make adjustments.
