I am a soldier in the border army

Chapter 133 I look forward to your return!
Youzhou is bitterly cold, vast and sparsely populated.

Therefore, it is also called 'Liao'.

Therefore, the town of Zhenliao was named Zhenliao, but it was actually the town of Youzhou.

……

Dayong Taikang 59 years, the second day of November.

In less than two months, it will be the New Year.

Next year will be Taikang’s 60th anniversary.

One cycle and one reincarnation.

At that time, the whole world will surely celebrate and congratulate Emperor Taikang.

But now there is no joy in welcoming the New Year in Zhenliao City.

The busy people on the street were walking in a hurry, most of them had their heads lowered and their faces full of sadness.

From time to time someone looks up, but not to look at the road.

Instead, he looked toward the north worriedly.

'It's been almost a month since we left for the expedition...why haven't we heard any news yet? '

When news of the previous massacres in Dingbei and Langju cities reached Zhenliao City.

The people in Zhenliao City were all filled with indignation.

I vowed to take back this heinous blood feud from those beasts.

But later, when the Zhenliao Army was ordered to go out to conquer the barbaric dogs, these righteous indignation quickly turned into worries about his son Lang.

After all, swords and arrows have no eyes on the battlefield, only the thought of life and death.

If anything goes wrong, they really don't know how to face such cruel reality.

At this moment, they really regretted it.

I regretted that I shouldn't have shouted so loudly that it seemed that His Majesty the Emperor of Haojing, the capital of the gods, heard me.

This forced his son-in-law to pick up his Liao-suppressing sword, mount his Liaodong war horse, and fight for his life against those damn ferocious barbaric dogs.

But things have come to this, and the only thing they can do at this time is to keep praying for those men who are galloping on the battlefield.

No matter what merits your son can accomplish, he will rise to the top.

I just hope he can return safely.

Even if I am missing an arm or a leg...

And among these prayers, Jiang Wan was naturally indispensable.

I stayed up all night last night and finally sewed most of Brother Shao's winter coat.

However, Jiang Wan, who had not slept much all night, felt a little dazed when she woke up in the morning.

I could vaguely hear Brother Shao calling his name in his ear, "Wan Niang, Wan Niang".

Jiang Wan secretly thought that she really missed him, and she was going crazy thinking about it.

Shaking her head and smiling gently, Jiang Wan picked up the unfinished winter coat again and started threading without stopping for a moment.

The New Year is not far away.

She must hurry up so that Brother Shao can put on this new clothes as soon as he returns from the war.

Lest anyone call him poor behind his back.

Although she knew Brother Shao didn't care about this, she did.

Every time she heard someone talking about her brother Shao like this, she wanted to step forward and tear the other person's mouth apart.

Then beat the opponent until the ground is full of teeth.

Let’s see who among them still dares to be so careless!
But she dare not.

Her brother Shao was a handsome gentleman who had read the books of saints and sages, and the last thing he wanted to see was a woman so rude.

She couldn't lose Brother Shao's face.

So she can only endure.

While enduring, I learned this complicated and difficult needlework from my aunt.

God!

It's so hard!

Jiang Wan still remembered how miserable she looked when her hands were pricked and covered in blood.

No matter how hard she practiced martial arts, she never shed a single tear. She couldn't hold back the tears all of a sudden.

But looking at that fool's nervous look, Jiang Wan wanted to laugh again.

Then he quietly hid his hand, crying and laughing.

It's just a pity that Jiang Wan finally learned how to needlework.

Brother Shao joined the army with his uncle.

Some time later, when she finally saved enough money, she bought some cloth from the cloth shop.

Brother Shao went to war again.

A lot of things in this world are like that.

When you are really ready, something like this will happen.

Disrupt all your previous preparations.

Catch you off guard.

Jiang Wan didn't know how she came back on the day she sent Brother Shao off to the north.

I just feel that my soul seems to have gone with him.

It was like this for three days in a state of confusion before I finally woke up.

From that day on, she began to sew the winter clothes day and night.

Because only in this way can she feel that she is still alive.

Stay alive until he returns from the battlefield.

He took off his shirt alive and put on this winter clothes.

In this way, time seems to pass day after day.

'It doesn't seem to be as difficult as imagined...'

Jiang Wan thought in a daze.

Then he held the winter coat in his hand, which was gradually taking shape, in front of him and looked at it carefully.

Cloth, which is not considered expensive, cannot be used to make gorgeous clothes.

But Jiang Wan expected that her brother Shao didn't care about this either.

As long as it's from her, he will definitely like it.

Thinking of how he would put on this winter coat and walk in Zhenliao City with his head held high.

Jiang Wan just wanted to laugh.

She actually likes to laugh.

He has great talent in martial arts.

He also has a very fierce temper.

But since Brother Shao went to school, she gradually stopped these things that were incompatible with Brother Shao.

From then on, she was Jiang Wan, gentle Wan.

But she didn't feel wronged.

I just feel a little guilty for Brother Shao.

Because she was not what Brother Shao liked, she just made herself look like Brother Shao liked her.

It made her feel like a despicable little thief.

But a little thief will be a little thief.

As long as you can get Brother Shao, be despicable.

After all, as long as you can pretend for a lifetime, who cares what Jiang Wan originally looked like?

Jiang Wan didn't even care.

She only cares about his brother Shao.

As long as Brother Shao cares about her.

This life... is enough!
Thinking of the good things, Jiang Wan secretly cursed herself for not being ashamed!
Shameless!
But looking at the winter coat in her hand, Jiang Wan couldn't help but bring it to her cheek and gently caress it a few times.

"When will Mr. Lang return..."

He muttered to himself like this.

Jiang Wan, who had not slept well for a long time, suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of tiredness.

'Take a short nap, wake up and sew again...'

Jiang Wan, who was ready to reward her for being lazy for a while, touched the edge of the table and fell asleep.

While sleeping, the sound of 'Wan Niang' came again.

Jiang Wan, who vaguely knew that she was in a dream, suppressed the shame in her heart and was about to respond.

But when he raised his eyes, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

That black mountain of corpses that stretches to no end!
And her brother Shao fell off the horse, his armor was broken, and he was looking at her covered in blood!

With just this glance, Jiang Wan felt that her heart was about to break.

She vaguely saw what he said to her, but she couldn't hear it clearly!
"Han Lang!"

He screamed like this at the top of his lungs.

The whole person, along with the dream, fell into pieces in an instant.

Jiang Wan woke up and had no time to take care of the winter coat in her hand that was soaked with tears.

Because the dream just now was too real.

It was so real that she seemed to see the regret and relief in Brother Shao's eyes.

But at this moment, a complaining voice came from beside him.

"What are you talking about this kid? You scared me."

It's aunt!
The moment she saw her aunt, Jiang Wan seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw.

He hugged his aunt tightly and cried bitterly.

"Auntie, I dreamed about Han Lang! I dreamed about Han Lang!"

"He fell off his horse! He's bleeding a lot! Go and save him!"

Aunt Jiang wanted to laugh and scold her for not being ashamed to say that she was 'Han Lang'.

But when she heard Jiang Wan say the next words, she was suddenly shocked and asked nervously.

"Where is your uncle? Have you ever dreamed about your uncle?"

After seeing Jiang Wan shaking her head, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he comforted softly.

"It's just a dream. Look, it scares you!"

Jiang Wan's parents died early.

She and Jiang Hu never had any children.

Therefore, Jiang Wan has always been treated as her biological daughter.

At this moment, seeing Jiang Wan worrying about that bastard again, while comforting her softly, she inevitably felt a bit resentful.

So he immediately cursed.

"This is such a rotten evildoer! I told you a long time ago that I wouldn't let him join the army!"

"I want to go! You said that fame can only be obtained on horseback. You are really stupid in reading!"

"It also makes my dear daughter worry at home!"

For Jiang Wan's sake, Aunt Jiang held back some unpleasant words.

In her opinion, except for his face, the boy named Han was useless in both writing and martial arts.

Not worthy of her sweet girl at all.

But Jiang Hu had no choice but to accept death and said that how could he change the marriage that his brother had decided on?

In addition, Jiang Wan is also a stubborn girl, so she just decided to be that loser.

Otherwise, with the good looks of her family, she would not be considered a noble person in the palace.

Being an official wife is more than enough.

She was just an aunt, but she couldn't defeat the uncle and nephew. What could she do?
Just let her be.

Who makes her sweet girl like it?
He was cursing and sighing at the same time.

But Jiang Wan, who had been crying just now, suddenly forgot to cry and said urgently.

"Aunt! How can you say that about him?"

"Mr. Han has so much ambition in his chest! He's not stupid because of reading!"

As soon as these words came out, Aunt Jiang was immediately choked.

After rolling her eyes in anger, she didn't bother to argue with this silly girl.

She's used to it anyway.

"Okay, okay! Your Han Lang is a treasure! I can't say anything bad about him!"

After giving Jiang Wan a hard look, Aunt Jiang said angrily.

"Just protect him!"

"When you get married, you will live a hard life every day. You will regret it!"

Interrupted by Aunt Jiang, the originally clear dream seemed to suddenly become blurry.

Coupled with the girl's emotions, they come and go quickly.

Jiang Wan's emotions finally calmed down.

But despite Aunt Jiang's repeated assurances, this was just a nightmare.

Jiang Wan's heart was still covered with a layer of haze that would not go away.

So in the following days, in addition to busying herself with her winter clothes, she would go to the temple in the city whenever she had free time.

Pray in front of Buddha for her husband.

On the way back, when passing by a restaurant or restaurant, she would stop and prick up her ears and listen for a while.

Because Brother Shao said.

In a place like this where fish and dragons are mixed, the information is the best.

November [-]th, this day.

For Zhenliaocheng, it is destined to be a day that shocks everyone.

Because the news from the north finally came.

It’s just not the Annunciation!

But a bolt from the blue!

The Zhenliao army was defeated!
The two armies that divided their forces from Dingbei and Langju cities encountered a surprise attack by hundreds of thousands of barbarian cavalry.

All failed miserably!

This bad news, like thunder on dry land, stunned everyone in Zhenliao City.

After a long while, someone said angrily.

"Fake! It must be fake!"

"Our Liao army is invincible! How could it be defeated by a mere barbarian dog! And it was a miserably defeat!"

In the past few years, the Suppressing Liao Army marched northward, although they occasionally suffered minor setbacks.But he has never experienced a true defeat.

Not to mention a disastrous failure.

A fiasco, what is it?
It's a waste of armor!
There are tens of thousands of corpses lying on the ground at every turn!
So they instinctively don't believe it.

He even scolded the outsider who brought the news.

Jiang Wan, who was hiding in the crowd with a curtain on her head, also quietly cursed a few times.

fake!

It must be fake!
Brother Shao will be fine!

After Jiang Wan encouraged herself, she returned home worriedly.

In the next few days, she no longer dared to go out.

I don't want to hear anything anymore.

Sitting at home all day sewing her winter coat.

'We must sew quickly, Brother Shao is coming back, otherwise it will be too late...'

'Wan Niang, don't believe that person's words, he is a liar...'

'Brother Shao will be fine, he will win a big victory and become a general!Then he married Wan Niang in all glory! '

'He promised Wan Niang that he would not lie to Wan Niang, right? '

Jiang Wan said these words to herself over and over again.

It seems to give yourself confidence.

Until a few days later, she saw her aunt come back in despair.

At that moment, Jiang Wan suddenly couldn't hold back tears.

The moment her beautiful eyes shed tears, Aunt Jiang couldn't hold back her tears.

"Don't be afraid, dear! Your uncle said that he will come back!"

"He will come back with Brother Shao!"

"If that bitch dares to say something that doesn't count, I'll skin him!"

In the past, Aunt Jiang had a temper and would scold her from the street to the end of the street.

Once again, he was so cruel that he even scolded himself.

But she was never willing to scold Jiang Hu.

But at this time, she said 'shit', obviously she hated him very much.

It's just that even Jiang Wan can clearly see the weakness and ferocity of her strong-willed wife.

So Jiang Wan, who was originally being comforted, hugged her aunt hard and said softly.

"Don't be afraid, Wan Niang is not afraid, and neither is Auntie."

"Will be back."

"Uncle will come back, and so will Han Lang."

"As women, we have to trust them, right?"

Faced with Jiang Wan's unexpected strength, Aunt Jiang could no longer maintain her pretentiousness.

cried hissingly.

"My dear! What will we do if your uncle goes!"

"He is our life!"

"It's our life!"

Ordinary couple.

Although there are no troubles in life, it is time to face life and death.

It's such heart-wrenching pain that no one who is involved in it can understand it.

On this day, Aunt Jiang was not alone in Zhenliao City.

It’s not just Jiang Wan either.

Along with those refugees who fled south to avoid the slaughter of barbarian dogs, they entered Zhenliao City in large numbers.

The news of the disastrous defeat of the Liao Army in the grassland can no longer be mixed with any false possibility.

Countless people cried in sorrow.

Countless people scolded Barbarian Dog.

Many warrior monks also gathered in front of the Zhenliao General's Mansion and asked the chief historian who stayed behind to organize them into the army.

Go north to the grassland and fight to the death with the barbarian dogs.

I vow to avenge this blood!
It’s just that every time I get a reply, wait, wait, wait!
This happened again and again, and the warrior monks finally couldn't help but said angrily.

"Isn't Chang Shi afraid of death?"

"If Chang Shi is afraid of death! I'm not afraid of death!"

"Chang Shi, just send me to die!"

The land of Youzhou belonged to the ancient Yan Kingdom for a period of time in history.

People at that time often lamented that "there are many generous and tragic people in Yan and Zhao"!
I don't know how many years have passed now.

This statement actually still applies to Youzhou today.

Applicable to today’s Zhenliaocheng!
The voice in the general's mansion let out a long sigh.

"Don't panic."

"Although the general was defeated, he stabilized his position in Dingbei City."

"Now we have blocked hundreds of thousands of barbarians under Dingbei City."

The voice did not deny the fiasco.

Everyone's hearts sank when they heard this, and their faces turned sad.

But the last sentence cheered them up a bit.

The general is still here!
The Liao Army is still there!
After the voice in the general's mansion said this, this time he did not refuse the request of these heroic men.

Instead, they were organized into city defense camps.

This is also the final preparation for the worst outcome.

Jiang Wan, who was at home, soon received this exciting new news from Aunt Jiang.

After all, as long as the entire army is not wiped out, there is still hope of living.

Who can say that the lucky one will not be the man of his own family?
In this way, time passes day by day.

Jiang Wan came to Laba from Xiaohan.

From Laba, we waited until the Great Cold.

On the day when it snowed heavily, she finally couldn't wait any longer.

Because her winter coat has been sewn long ago, and her husband has not returned yet.

She would go crazy if she waited endlessly at home.

"Good girl!"

Hearing her aunt's call behind her, Jiang Wan, who was holding a brand new winter coat, paused slightly.

"I'm going to welcome him home."

Then put a winter coat on him as soon as possible.

It's snowing.

He will be cold.

……

Two days of waiting in the wind and snow.

Some diners in the restaurant looked at the female figure in the snow and suddenly recognized her.

"Hey! Isn't this Wan Niang!"

"Are you waiting for that loser to come back?"

The diner took advantage of the wine and laughed.

"If you ask me, you better not wait any longer!"

"That piece of trash can't do well in writing, and he's terrible at practicing martial arts!"

"When we go to the battlefield, let alone kill the enemy, I'm afraid I'll be scared to wet my pants if I see those barbaric dogs!"

After saying this, all the diners at the same table with him burst into laughter.

Several of them were classmates of 'Shao Ge'er' when they were studying essays.

In the beginning, when it came to learning Chinese characters and writing sentences, 'Shao Ge'er' was better than them in every aspect.

But once it comes to real practice.

The man surnamed Han has turned into a wooden head, and his cultivation is extremely slow.

As time goes by, the reputation of waste naturally spreads like wildfire.

Several people laughed and looked at Jiang Wan in the wind and snow in front of them.

To be honest, they had not seen the girl in front of them for a long time since Han Shao abandoned the text and joined the army.

Looking at it now, even though the curtains are covered with falling snow, even the winter clothes can't cover her graceful figure.

His eyes lit up and he laughed.

"How about you marry me after that good-for-nothing dies?"

"I'm much better than that trash..."

But before he could finish his words, he was greeted with a heavy blow from the stick.

click-

As his muscles and bones were broken, the young diner, who was spitting feces from his mouth, suddenly started to wail.

The curtain above the girl's head fell aside, revealing her beautiful and gentle face to everyone.

But the wooden stick that he picked up from nowhere gave people an extremely inconsistent feeling.

"My Han Lang!"

"No matter what your cultivation level is, you still dare to raise your sword and mount your horse to kill the enemy!"

"This is how you harass your great husband! How can a broken-backed dog like you, who only hides behind and barks, be able to humiliate him!"

As he said that, Hou Tian's anger was wrapped in the wooden stick in his hand, and he used it to kill all the dogs that had insulted Brother Shao just now.

They all broke their legs and kicked them into the wind and snow outside.

The other diners who witnessed this scene reacted and immediately cheered.

"What a woman! What a great husband!"

"Well done! Well said!"

"Congratulations to my brave warrior who suppressed the Liao Dynasty! Congratulations to my heroic daughter who suppressed the Liao Dynasty!"

Amidst bursts of loud cheers, Jiang Wan threw aside the wooden stick in her hand.

Then he saluted everyone with his standard manner that he had practiced countless times.

Then he put on the curtain again, hugged his winter coat, and looked in the direction of the city gate again.

Every time the Liao Army made a triumphant return, they would enter through this gate.

Jiang Wan had stayed with her aunt and greeted her uncle several times before.

Absolutely can't be wrong.

Just as the diners in the restaurant gradually went home.

There was still no movement at that city gate.

Jiang Wan's originally hopeful eyes dimmed little by little with the light of the sky.

'Tomorrow, he will definitely come back tomorrow! '

Such a whisper.

Jiang Wan looked lonely.

But just as she turned around to leave, the sound of galloping horse hooves suddenly came from the distant city gate.

"Great victory! Great victory!"

"Under Dingbei City! Our Zhenliao branch has fallen into the camp of Han Sima! Kill two barbarian dogs in a row, two Dharma Realm masters!"

"Hundreds of thousands of barbarians collapsed!"

"Our town of Liao Tiger Ben took advantage of the situation and killed three hundred miles! Beheaded nearly 20 people!"

"The army will be victorious soon!"

Horse hooves whizzed by.

The roaring sound, which was almost trembling with excitement, sounded over and over again throughout Zhenliao City.

"Great victory! Great victory!"

"Under Dingbei City! Our branch of Zhenliao..."

Soon it was like a blazing torch, instantly igniting the city of Zhenliao that should have been silent in the darkness!
Won? !
Surprises and reversals come too quickly!
When countless figures rushed out of the house, there was still a look of disbelief on their faces.

Until a burst of laughter came from the General's Mansion.

"Sima Zhuang of my branch in Zhenliao!"

"I hold Liao towering! So majestic!"

"I can't help but have a late-night snack tonight! Congratulations to my son Lang!"

The voice fell.

The entire town of Zhenliao was boiling instantly.

In the wind and snow, oil lamps that were usually reluctant to be lit lit up one after another.

Countless people roared with excitement.

Countless people rushed onto the streets in the face of the wind and snow.

On the contrary, Jiang Wan, who was the first to hear the news, walked slowly home.

She doesn't care about Han Sima.

He doesn't care about killing two Dharma Realm masters in a row.

Not to mention covering up three hundred miles and beheading nearly 20 people.

Those superior existences were ultimately too far away from her.

It was too far away from her little pawn Han Lang.

At this moment, there was only one sentence in her confused mind.

"The army will be victorious soon!"

came back.

finally come back!
She almost flew with joy.

Although no one told her clearly that her Han Lang and her brother Shao were still alive.

But she just believes it!

I believe he can come back!

Jiang Wan tightened the winter coat that was heavily wrapped in her arms, and then ran towards home.

At this moment, she was not gentle at all.
