Chapter 108 The Road

At Feihukou, a team lined up like ants out of the high mountains and gradually gathered outside Feihukou. 8 novel w?ww.`

This process was extremely long, and it was not until three days later that the entire team entered the boundary of Shanggu County.

It was only then that the three leaders gathered together to meet.

As soon as he saw the pretty girl and Li Bi, Li Po became happy.

The pretty boy is still so energetic, bright and majestic.

But Li Bi is a bit...

Both hands were wrapped in white cloth, and there were many scratches on his face. He looked like a boxer who had been beaten in the ring.

Three people get together, you look at me, I look at you, it can be said that each has its own taste.

The pretty boy was obviously a little embarrassed. When he saw Li Po, he hugged his fists at Li Po without waiting for Li Po to salute, and laughed loudly: "Fortunately, I have a good brother to cut off the queen, otherwise...well, the hero of Kansai,

It truly lives up to its reputation.”

Li Po curled his lips secretly, who did he say this to? You can tell by the wandering eyes that this pretty boy is still thinking about someone else's daughter.

Glancing at Li Bi, Li Po suppressed a smile and hammered his chest, "Fortunately, I didn't embarrass the sergeant."

At this time, the pretty boy could say a hundred words, but none of them were as beautiful as Li Po's words.

There's no way around it. It's a job to flatter people. It depends on what you've done. If you just talk without practicing, you won't be popular these days...?`

Li Biming knew that most of what this kid said didn't mean it, but his words were too pleasant. Involuntarily, the corners of his mouth curled up and his eyes narrowed. The anger he had been holding back in his heart for the past few days suddenly dissipated a lot.

"Thank you for your hard work. I will record the credit myself. When I go back to Mayi, I will give you a reward."

Li Po's attitude was very upright, he bowed slightly and punched his chest twice, "Thank you, Sergeant."

Li Bi nodded with satisfaction. For the first time, she felt that this boy looked much more pleasing to her eyes.

They didn't say anything more after that, they just got together and discussed the itinerary.

In fact, all three of them understood that this matter was not over yet.

The attack on Lingqiu Road was sudden, strange, and quite dangerous. Previously, the magistrate of Lingqiu County wanted to change horses. The cause and effect of this are actually very clear.

Guilty verdict is the norm these days, so there will still be consequences after this incident.

As for defeating the Taihang bandits and killing many of them, neither the pretty guy nor Li Bi cared much about it.

It goes without saying that the officers and soldiers suppressed bandits, and their achievements were generally not very great.

Just like Heng'an Town sent troops to exterminate the Dongshan bandits, what they got in exchange was just a light word from the county magistrate, about military achievements and the like, and no one took it seriously.

The bandits these days are really vulnerable to the Sui army.??.??`co?m

The soldiers' eyes have never been on the bandits.

Of course, this situation will change in a short period of time, but now, in the eyes of the Sui army officers and soldiers, it is not considered a serious military achievement.

This time there were more than thirty casualties in the attack on Lingqiu Road. It can be said that the damage was minor, so the generals didn't even care.

As for whether it was dangerous or not, apart from Li Po who thought that if he came a few more times, he would definitely be reincarnated again, which made him a little annoyed, the other two didn't care much.

These days, there are really not many generals and soldiers in the border areas who are afraid of death. Their strength is beyond the imagination of later generations.

Like Li Bi, she said a few words in an understatement and then nothing more, which is the most concrete manifestation of this kind of mentality.

The laborers from Shanggu County have arrived.

He spoke with a Hebei accent, which was somewhat similar to how people from Henan later spoke. Several people from Mayi, including Li Po, found it a little difficult to hear him.

However, we didn’t delay too long. The trip had already been delayed a lot, so we couldn’t stop in Shanggu. The next day, we set off immediately and headed northeast along the eastern foot of Taihang.

At this time, the scene along the road was completely different.

In the seventh year of the Great cause, northern Hebei has gradually become a huge military camp.

On the road to Zhuojun Palace, the flow of people was like ants, so densely packed that there was no end as far as the eye could see.

Government soldiers riding war horses, armed with swords and bows, and civilians in ragged clothes, carrying burdens on their shoulders, crowded the roads, rushing toward Zhuojun like hundreds of rivers converging into the sea.

When the team entered the boundary of Zhuojun, even Li Po's expression turned serious involuntarily.

Folk husbands, folk husbands are everywhere.

Because the weather was getting colder, some corpses could already be seen on the roadside. Although they would be buried soon, this scene still exceeded Li Po's imagination.

This is undoubtedly the prelude to a magnificent war, and the achievements of men are constantly showing off at the front.

But for people who have never experienced such a war, it is difficult to imagine some of the details.

The scene of the Pagoda in Troubled Times seemed to appear before Li Po's eyes all of a sudden.

It seems a bit exaggerated to say that the fields are starving and the land is thousands of miles away, but at this time of year, civil service is still going on. Even if Li Po knows little about the social structure of these days, it still makes people shudder.

Watching the groups of civilians, driven by the officials, numbly moving forward, with some people in the group faltering frequently, Li Po felt for the first time that such a cruel rule, if it were Li Po, he would be the same.

opposite.

In fact, what he saw was only a small part of the place.

In fact, in the last few months of the seventh year of Daye, countless people and material resources were used along the way from both sides of the Yangtze River to the north of the Yellow River.

But the Liaodong War has not yet begun, and the foundation of the Sui Dynasty has actually begun to show signs of shaking under this extreme squeeze on people's power.

Pieces of military camps began to appear in sight.

The fields in Zhuojun were already deserted before the emperor came to Zhuojun.

No one is going to plant the fields, and even if they are planted, no one is going to harvest the crops.

In the autumn of the seventh year of Daye, the army gradually gathered in Zhuojun, and almost all the fields in Zhuojun were turned into military camps.

Flags of various colors fluttered over the military camp.

Even Li Bi and Xiao Bailian couldn't figure out where these flags came from and which general they belonged to.

From the moment the team of more than a thousand people entered the boundary of Zhuojun, they seemed to have turned into a small boat in the ocean, looking extremely inconspicuous.

Going forward, there are suddenly more levels.

At this time, Zhuojun felt particularly bad for Li Po. There was congestion everywhere.

Human life has become extremely cheap here. People with whip marks tied to wooden stakes can be seen everywhere on the roadside. They are soldiers who have been tortured and civilians who have made mistakes.

What's even more disgusting is that there are some bloody human heads stuck on some low stakes, staring with empty and terrifying eyes in the autumn wind, staring at everyone passing by, telling the story of unwillingness.

Li Po started to feel a little bitter in his mouth. He was no longer sure whether this was Hebei in the Sui Dynasty or the scene where the Romans suppressed the slave uprising.
