Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.: Chapter 1163 Only when there is a country, there is a home!
Chapter 1163 Only a country has a family!
Li Laosi and Mr. Hou ran out of the city gate on horseback. Seeing this, the vanguard behind them didn't want to give up and wanted to catch up.
But the Marquis stopped him and said, "Don't chase the poor bandits. Let them live for a few more days!"
Everyone pulled the reins of their horses and stood still.
Looking at the barbarians crawling into the grassland like lost dogs, everyone fell silent.
The border gate has been recaptured!
Tianwu is complete, and the rivers and mountains are unified!
The Northern Campaign lasted for more than ten years and finally won today!
I don’t know who cried first.
Maybe I think of my dead brother, maybe I think of my parents and relatives far away, maybe I think of the hatred that has persisted for more than ten years!
Gradually the crying became louder and louder, and everyone had tears streaming down their face.
Even Mr. Li has red circles in his eyes. Who doesn’t know that his wife and children enjoy the happiness of being on the hot bed?
Who doesn’t want to serve and be filial to their parents?
But country, country!
A country has a home!
In order for millions of people to live in peace and so that the devastated land would no longer be bullied, they sacrificed their lives and blood and fought for more than ten years!
From the warmth of spring to the blooming of flowers, until the heavy snow falls.
From the point where the armor was hot to the touch, to the point where it was too cold to take off.
From a young and ignorant boy to a beard under his chin!
Northern Expedition, two words, how simple!
But for all the Northern Expeditionary Army, it is the flesh and blood body that creates monuments and beliefs!
The Marquis took a deep breath, suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, and then raised the sword in his hand high!
“The Northern Expeditionary Army is mighty! The Heavenly Forces are mighty!”
Everyone pulled out their sabers in panic, raised them above their heads, and shouted at the top of their lungs.
The Northern Expeditionary Army is mighty!
Tianwu is mighty!
Logically speaking, Tianwu should be before Beizheng, and also higher than Beizheng.
But at this moment, no one cared about this, and no one felt that there was anything wrong.
Without the Northern Expeditionary Army, Tianwu's rivers and mountains would still be broken.
Without the Northern Expeditionary Army, Tianwu might not even be able to defend the south of the Yangtze River!
Huge sound waves broke through the sky and spread far and wide.
There is not a single Tianwu commoner in the entire border, but there are thousands of dead souls responding!
This moment has been waited for too long...
In the evening, the Northern Expeditionary Army had moved its main camp to the border, quickly guarded various passes, and arranged patrols.
The logistics camp was also busy making fires and cooking, with bonfires everywhere.
The soldiers, who were still excited, gathered together in twos and threes and talked about what they would do after returning home.
Some people want to get married, some want to open shops, and some want to build new houses!
Jiang Cheng had a vacant room temporarily cleaned. The back room was used as the residence of the Marquis, and the outside room could also be used for discussions.
He dragged his injured leg and led the soldiers around, and soon he was sweating from the heat.
Li Laosi and Mu Jue came in from outside. Seeing this, Li Laosi said, "Brother Jiang, didn't I tell you to rest? What are you busy with? Be careful of the wound rotting and suppurating!"
Jiang Cheng waved his hands nonchalantly and cursed with a smile, "How can I have time when I'm so busy! Besides, I just cut a hole in my leg, but it's not like I am chopping off a leg!
"Besides, I risked my life to save you because I didn't want you to treat me like a child! Just do your business when it's time to do it. I'll make arrangements right away."
Li Laosi had no choice but to take out a bottle of medicine and hand it to him.
"This is the medicine my daughter gave me. Remember to put it on and keep it for tomorrow." Jiang Cheng didn't refuse, he took it with a smile and said, "The medicine the princess has thought about is rare and good. Things! You’re such a picky kid, so I have to put them away!”
“Oh, it’s for you to use, not put it away!” Li Laosi made a move to grab it, which provoked Jiang Cheng to quickly stuff it into his arms.
Everyone looked at it and laughed.
The border passes were recaptured, the victory of the Northern Expedition was a certainty, and everyone relaxed.
Even the generals would have a few fights and jokes.
Jiang Cheng wiped a handful of sweat beads, looked at the smiling Mu Jue, and praised, "When did Guard Mu come? I heard that you showed great power, fell from the sky, and almost split the old King Khan in half? It was so awesome incredible!"
Mu Jue raised his hands in salute and said with a smile, "I just jumped down from the tree and slashed with a knife. It's a pity that I was dodged, otherwise, I really could have kept the old Khan."
“Haha, that’s not bad. I have been in the Northern Expedition for many years, and I haven’t seen the appearance of King Khan yet. You have to chop people alive. You will be feared in the future, and you will be feared in the future!”
Jiang Cheng patted Mu Jue on the shoulder and began to sigh again, "Unfortunately, there is not much military ration left, and we can't find any rice or noodles. Otherwise, it would be great to make you a bowl of noodles to celebrate!"
"Thank you, General Jiang. It won't be too late to eat when you get home." Mu Jue responded.
The Marquis heard the noise in the house and came out.
Jiang Cheng immediately signaled to his guards, "Go and do your work. Bring in the water that's been boiled outside."
The guards responded and quickly brought hot water.
Jiang Cheng took out some tea leaves to brew, and said with a smile, "We are really going home, even if we have finished drinking the tea leaves."
Everyone sat down, each person held a cup and drank slowly.
Although Mu Jue has been in the north for a few days, he has been in the dark.
At this moment, they were all close people, so he asked.
"Marquis, the princess is concerned about the cold arrow you shot. I wonder if the wound can be healed?"
Hearing that his beautiful and intelligent adopted daughter, the Marquis also had a smile in his eyes, nodded and said, "It's much better, although it can't be too strenuous, but it's not a problem."
Mu Jue asked, "Can we return to Jiangnan soon?"
Li Laosi and Jiang Cheng also looked at the Marquis with hope in their expressions.
Who doesn’t want to go home?
Especially when your wish is fulfilled and your great achievements are accomplished, you must return home in glory!
But the Marquis shook his head, "It's not done yet, we have to wait. The barbarians have gathered thousands of reinforcements deep in the grassland and are rushing to the border.
“We have to find a way to annihilate them all, and even the old Khan and the fifth prince must stay. Otherwise, if we withdraw, the fighting will still continue here at the border.
“In case of defeat, Jiangbei will fall under the iron hooves of the barbarians again. We must eradicate the roots and not give the barbarians a chance to counterattack.
“If we succeed in retaining the old Han king and his son, and annihilate all the reinforcements, and the grassland wants to regain its strength, and then fight each other to elect a new king, it will take at least twenty years, and Tianwu will be peaceful for twenty years!”
Everyone couldn't help but nod after hearing this, and Li Laosi even clapped his hands and applauded, "The Marquis is right, we must kill him completely!"
Jiang Cheng asked, "The barbarians are now outside the border. How does the Marquis plan to annihilate the reinforcements and kill the old Khan and his son?"
After saying that, he added, "We are running out of military rations. Should we first send supplies to the south of the Yangtze River and then make a long-term plan?"
Li Laosi immediately objected, "No! Those people in the imperial court are unreliable. Even if they give the army rations quickly, it will take more than half a month to deliver them here. Time waits for no one!"
The Marquis nodded, "We still need to fight quickly! Track and monitor the whereabouts of the old Khan Prince and his son, use them to fish out reinforcements, and then wait for work and annihilate them in one battle."
"Leave this job to me, Lord Marquis." Mu Jue volunteered, "I'm the best at tracking. I'll keep it and complete the task."
