Chapter 36 Qin Qiong

The two Fang Zheng brothers took people out of the city on skis. After a while, they came back with many people. It took them three times to get everyone into the military camp.

Fortunately, skis are standard equipment for the army in Buyeo City. Most of the older batch can learn it. Only those who joined in the middle of the year have not learned yet, so they can pick them up quickly. Zou Yu has been standing at the top of the city. After some calculations, there is actually one this time.

There were more than a thousand people, and they were carrying a lot of things.

"Uncle Zhang! Uncle Liu! Uncle Li!" Zou Yu came down from the top of the city and greeted the last few people entering the city with a smile on his face.

"Haha! We had no choice but to come back. Xiaoyu won't be angry!" Zhang Zhongjian said with a laugh.

"How is that possible? It's too late for me to be happy when you come back, Uncle Zhang." Zou Yu said with a calm smile.

"That's good. Uncle Zhang was still worried that you would be angry that I didn't stay with you." Zhang Zhongjian said apologetically.

"No, I understood from the beginning that you all have families, unlike us, who are alone."

"It's freezing cold and Goguryeo has sealed its borders again, so we have no choice but to bring our brothers here." Li Keshi said sheepishly.

Although Zou Yu and the others stayed voluntarily, they did feel a little guilty when they left with a large force, and now they came back shamelessly after arguing for a while.

I originally wanted to follow last year's example and find a village to live in. Unfortunately, the border area has long been empty, and I couldn't grab some supplies. I lived frugally and killed all the horses along the way, so I persisted. If it snows.

They may starve in the morning and afternoon. The most important thing is that they don't have enough winter clothes to keep out the cold. If they don't arrive tonight, they may freeze to death.

"Stop chatting for now, let's go home and have a sip of hot water." Zou Yu waved his hand and said.

"Okay, okay!" Zhang Zhongjian looked at the stockier people and nodded repeatedly.

Zou Yu took them directly to the military camp. Hot water had already been heated for them to take a bath. There was a public bathroom built in the military camp. Because of the heated kang, the hot water was constant, which was very convenient.

Seeing the greatly changed military camp, Zhang Zhongjian and others were very surprised. At the same time, they also sighed. It was not easy to take a hot bath in the winter, let alone so many people.

After putting on their sheepskin coats and drinking ginger soup, Zhang Zhongjian and others followed Zou Yu back to the original governor's house.

"I didn't expect that Buyeo City has changed so much in just half a year!" Zhang Zhongjian sighed as he walked through the thin snow and looked at the brick houses on both sides of the road.

"If it weren't for the sparsely populated area, I would really have thought I was back in Daxing City (Chang'an, Sui Dynasty)." Li Kashi sighed.

Zou Yu still feels a sense of accomplishment for what nearly 50,000 people in Buyeo City have worked together for more than half a year.

"City Lord!" In front of the gate of the County Sheriff's Mansion, two guards saluted respectfully.

"Thank you!" Zou Yu nodded and walked in.

Li Keshi and Zhang Zhongjian looked at each other, looking at the guard who was looking intently, and couldn't help but shake their heads and smile bitterly.

This is no one’s fault. After all, they were the ones who gave up Buyeo City first. Except for the first few who still remember them, the current soldiers don’t know them at all, so they don’t blame Zou Yu.

"City Lord!"

"City Lord!"

Along the way, the people who helped the governor's office saluted Zou Yu one after another, which gave Zou Yu a taste of his taste. Although he usually called him the city lord, he was an ordinary citizen. There were not so many rules. There were more.

It was as if he was greeting the city lord as if he were one of his names.

Thinking of Bai Suhua's fight to come back first, Zou Yu guessed that this was her attention and that she was declaring sovereignty to Zhang Zhongjian and others. After all, she was also aware of Zhang Zhongjian's affairs, and she was afraid that she would seize power with Zou Yu when she came back this time.

"I'm so sorry, Uncle Zhang!" Zou Yu turned around and said apologetically.

"What you say will make everyone agree. Uncle Zhang is happy for you." Zhang Zhongjian patted Zou Yu on the shoulder and said sincerely.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang, for your understanding." Zou Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't think so much at first, but he was still a little tangled in his heart just now. After all, on the one hand, he was taking care of himself, which is equivalent to teaching his mentor, and on the other hand, he was doing it himself, hand by hand.

In a situation where the feet are open, the effort put into it is not enough to be appreciated by outsiders.

"Don't worry, Xiaoyu, we have not thought about coming back to seize power. If these soldiers are willing to stay next year, we will not force them." Li Kashi said gently.

"Do you still want to go back next year?" Zou Yu asked unexpectedly. He did not expect that Li Keshi and the others would not give up even after they hit a wall.

"We are all people with families. We have been away for a year or two and have heard nothing from us. We still don't know how worried our families are and how we can live in peace of mind." Li Kashi explained melancholy.

Zou Yu couldn't persuade Zou Yu. After all, no matter what happened, his family was not as important as his family. It was human nature to go back desperately, just like the old people outside who wanted to return to their roots after falling leaves. It is precisely because the Han people have this kind of thinking, so

For thousands of years, no one has forgotten his roots, roots, and ancestors. People are like duckweeds. Even if they live well outside, they are just a mirror in the mirror. Others will always look down on them. Once a country and a country change,

When problems arise, the first ones to suffer are those who have abandoned their ancestors and forgotten their roots.

Entering the Sheriff's Mansion, Bai Suhua had already arranged the food. After eating, the few of them sat down again.

"This is the girl Bai Suhuabai and the girl Heisumei Hei. It is all thanks to their help in the past six months that Buyeo City is what it is today." Zou Yu introduced several people.

"This is Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao, one of the troops who broke off the queen this time. We happened to meet each other." Zhang Zhongjian introduced to a young man with a handsome face.

"Qin Qiong!" Zou Yu was shocked and looked up. The name was so loud that he couldn't help but be moved.

Qin Qiong is still very young now. He looks only in his mid-twenties, with a square nose and a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows. His complexion is a little yellow. Seeing Zou Yu's appearance, Qin Qiong asked doubtfully: "Do you know me, the city lord?"

"I've heard people talk about Brother Qin's reputation as Shandong Sai Mengchang, the Supreme Protector of the Divine Fist." Zou Yu nodded and said with a smile. What he said was true. Qin Qiong's reputation was astonishing.

"The city lord has given you the reward." Qin Qiong said with a simple smile.

"Brother Qin, don't call me City Lord. I can't afford it. I am just a self-proclaimed City Lord."

"Shu Bao admires his ability to capture a city in Goguryeo."

"Brother Qin is putting my younger brother to shame. The occupation of Buyeo City was just because the Goguryeo army was transferred to the front line, and Uncle Zhang and the others defeated it together. This is not my ability." Zou Yu said with a smile.
