MTL - After Emptying the Enemy’s Warehouse, He Carried Supplies To Survive the Disaster Years-Chapter 397 Zhongliqi
The border of Xiagufu was able to advance four miles outward because of this raid.
Adhering to Ziyu's belief that every inch of land on the border must be fought for, he and Libai personally led the cavalry to guard the border to protect the safety of the workers.
At this time, even if the fragrance of mutton soup wafted out, it did not attract the attention of the people who built the city wall.
Even the newly freed coolies took the initiative to help build the city wall while breathing in the scent of mutton in the air.
While working hard, they smelled the delicious food of Daxia people every day while they were there.
Now it was finally their turn to have something to eat, and both men and women were rushing to work.
…
Ma Weiyuan flipped through the roster that was sent to him, and his eyes suddenly fell on a somewhat familiar name.
Just thinking about it makes me so happy!
"General, who are you meeting? Is there anyone I know here?" Zhongliqi said unconfidently.
It feels good to eat a lot of meat. Many wealthy families in the past did not have this treatment.
When passing by a large stove where mutton was stewed, Ma Weiyuan stepped forward and fished out two large pieces of mutton, taking a bite without fear of the heat.
Zhongliqi!
“Pop, this person is 100% related to the boss!
Lin Si, go find this man named Zhong Liqi, hurry up. "
He believed that if he could find one, he would be able to find the second one, and he would hold a family-hunting meeting when things stabilized.
“Don’t worry, you will have time to serve as a soldier.
In order to survive, one has to live numbly like a fool.
He is now a lonely man with no relatives. Even his favorite second brother died early in his country.
Zhong Lizheng works in another place. Don't think about meeting him for a while. Let this guy be happy first.
By the time he returned to Yundu, Zhongli's house had changed its owner, and he learned from the news he received.
Zhong Liqi, who was only twenty years old, was bent over due to oppression, with a few strands of white hair appearing on his temples.
“Zhong Liqi, tell me where you are and who is in your family.”
Holding a large piece of hot mutton, Zhong Liqi didn't know what to do and didn't hear what Ma Weiyuan said.
…
Thinking of this, Zhong Liqi's eyes turned blood red and he clenched his fists.
Ma Weiyuan was munching on the mutton, slurping loudly, and completely ignored Zhong Liqi's expression.
“Try it, the meat of the Beimang people is delicious. With the fort master and boss here, there is never a shortage of meat to eat.
“General, I am willing to serve as a soldier and kill Beimang people. I want to avenge my family.”
Second brother Zhongli Qi died on the battlefield, when the Northern Kingdom invaded the Baiyun Kingdom..."
The majestic clothes and spears, the sleek horses, and even the boots on the feet were of a style he had never seen before.
Zhong Liqi told everyone in the family carefully that after the defeat, the emperor abandoned the people of Baiyun Kingdom and fled.
“Reporting to the general, I am from Yundu. I have parents, brothers and sisters-in-law at home. My nieces and nephews were all slaughtered by Beimang dogs.
…
Ma Wei took a distant look in the direction of Yundu. He believed that under the leadership of the fortress owner and the boss, they would stand on the city wall of Yundu soon.
“If you look closely, you can see that they are quite similar.
The defeat was overwhelming, the emperor ran away, but they had nowhere to go.
We can always help these people find their living relatives and let them stay in Xiagu Mansion with peace of mind.
Because, at this time, he was concentrating entirely on the piece of mutton in his hand.
Ma Weiyuan shouted without raising his head, pointing his fingers carefully on the roster one by one, for fear of missing a familiar name.
However, he has become a slave of the Beimang people forever, doing the most painful and tiring work, and his life is even more precarious.
Even if you die in battle, your family can be reunited in the underworld.
All of these things require manpower everywhere, and this batch of returning coolies just solves the shortage of labor in Xiagufu.
…
For Ma Weiyuan, the word of propaganda is already coming out of his mouth.
I heard that your family used to have good conditions, so you probably ate meat a lot! "
Ma Weiyuan is eager for the return of these people.
The whole family died tragically in the massacre when Beiguo entered the city. Even his two-year-old nephew did not escape being killed.
Even though they are all skinny and skinny, most of them are men in their prime years. With a little maintenance, they can be good soldiers.
Let's go, I'll take you to meet someone who will make you jump with joy. "Ma Weiyuan said deliberately.
The thin young man brought over by Lin Si stood at the door of the camp uneasily and took a deep breath.
He has no home anymore, and his only thought is to go into battle to kill the enemy and avenge the death of his family.
I heard that blood flowed into rivers that day and corpses piled up into a mountain. It was because Beimang Dog's sword was blunt that only one person was left alive.
Hand the other large piece of mutton in his hand to Zhongli Qidao.
Think of some possible Zhongliqi and shake off the impossible thoughts from your mind.
Sooner or later we will drive the Beimang people out of this land so that all poor people can have food to eat and clothing to wear. "
After carefully reading the roster, I couldn't find a familiar name, but I wasn't discouraged.
Once the city wall on the border is built, the empty villages in Xiagu Mansion will be put to use, and the large areas of land that have been abused will need to be cultivated again.
Ma Weiyuan was busy leading people to deal with the aftermath, arranging registration, arranging residence, dividing land and other matters for those who had escaped from the suffering.
The clothes were already in tatters, but the skin was torn apart during the fight, making him comparable to an elder of a beggar gang.
Our Daxia Kingdom’s soldiers are fundamentally different from those of Baiyun Kingdom and Nan Kingdom. You will know after you have rested for a while.
Even if it is a deprivation meal, there is no such thing as a full meal.
… “Good boy, it’s you!”
Zhong Liqi was confused and still followed Ma Weiyuan faithfully, but his eyes glanced left and right at the cavalry walking back and forth.
It can even be said that they have not had a full meal since they were defeated and captured.
He was envious of everything. If the Baiyun Kingdom had such a powerful cavalry at that time, how could the Beimang people suppress them and fight.
Many civilians in Yundu did not even have time to react, and the city was destroyed.
“Report to the general that Zhongli is here!”
“Hey, what a pity!”
Ma Weiyuan stared at the door closely. When he saw Zhong Liqi's desolate look like a beggar, he couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for the boy, but his expression remained unchanged.
He hasn’t eaten meat for an unknown amount of time.
Ma Weiyuan walked up to Zhong Liqi and looked at the dark face carefully.
Let alone eating meat, I haven't even eaten enough black steamed buns that I can't chew.
With a wave of your hand, you can guide the country!
The common people who were afraid of being killed had no choice but to let the Beimang people slaughter them. If they resisted at all, they would be mercilessly beheaded.
"Come in!"
That face is roughly similar to someone else, and there are two forehead lines on the dark forehead. At first glance, he looks more like a middle-aged man.
O founding fathers!
"I...I...can I really eat it?" Zhongliqi murmured as he cried while looking at the mutton.
“Eat, I gave it to you just to eat!
Eat something to cushion your stomach first, and don’t faint from excitement soon. "
Ma Wei could not see how stupid he looked, and remembered that when he followed his boss and wandered incognito, they were all the same miserable people.
