Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 3343 Three Days
Yang Ruoqing suddenly turned over and hugged his waist: "By the way, I almost forgot to ask you something serious. How long can you stay at home when you come back this trip? Can you stay for the end of the New Year?"

Looking at the light of expectation in her eyes, Luo Fengtang was slightly taken aback, and then guilt welled up in his heart.

Seeing his appearance, Yang Ruoqing's face changed slightly.

She quickly suppressed the reluctance in her heart, pretending to be indifferent and said: "It's okay if you can't stay for the New Year. I'm very satisfied if you can go home for a while before the year, really..."

"Qing'er." Luo Fengtang said, interrupting Yang Ruoqing's words.

"To tell you the truth, my trip was actually ordered by the sacred decree."

Holy decree?

Yang Ruoqing opened her eyes wide, waiting for his next words.

Luo Fengtang went on to say: "The severe drought in Helanzhou in April and the ensuing insect disaster created a series of variables. King Su led the victims of Helanzhou to fight against the court, and the false emperor in the capital rebelled..."

"Although the chaos of the false emperor has subsided now, King Su has fled, and the emperor has appointed the sixth prince, Qi Xingyun, as the crown prince to be in charge of the East Palace, but in northern Liaoning, southwest, and Sichuan and Sichuan, peasant armies from all over the country have risen up one after another."

"The Black Lotus Sect in the south is even more eager to move, and the southern barbarians burned, killed and looted the people on the border of our Daqi,"

"On land, on the rivers and rivers, all kinds of bandits are rampant, and some even collude with local officers and soldiers, fish and meat the common people, and harm the merchants..."

"The emperor named me the National Protector General, and led an army of [-] national protectors to the southwest to quell the rebellion. This trip was passing through Wanghai County. He wanted to recruit soldiers from his hometown, so he stayed for a few days."

"When the recruitment is complete, the army will go directly to the southwest."

He told Yang Ruoqing everything in detail, even including why the emperor fell down after eating a locust.

It turned out to be a bureau set up by the emperor.

"General Xie and General Zhou stayed in the county and other towns to recruit soldiers. It has been two or three days, so it is probably about the same." Yang Ruoqing took Luo Fengtang's words and said.

"Which day will I leave? Are you sure?" She asked again.

There was still one shoe left unfinished, and she had to finish it before he left.

Luo Fengtang wrapped his hands around her waist, extremely reluctant, but still said: "I received a letter from General Xie today, the recruitment matters are almost done, and the departure should be set in three days."

three days?

Yang Ruoqing took a deep breath, so fast!
"This is the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, can I still eat a bowl of Laba porridge at home?" Thinking of this, her eyes lit up again.

Luo Fengtang pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

Originally, General Xie and General Zhou suggested that Chu Qi should leave, but he... insisted on delaying for two days.

If you can't spend the new year with her, at least eat a bowl of Laba porridge with her!
"It's getting late, go to bed."

He said, reaching out to hold her in his arms, preventing her from seeing the guilt and reluctance in his eyes.

However, Yang Ruoqing struggled to get out of his arms.

"You go to bed first, I'm not sleepy at all, I'll sleep later." She said.

He sat up and grabbed his coat and put it on his body, before going to get the sewing basket at the end of the bed.

The arm was held down by Luo Fengtang: "It's late at night, I've burned my eyes, let's do it tomorrow!"

Yang Ruoqing shook her head with a smile, "I'm rushing to work, you sleep, I'll sleep after a few stitches, otherwise I won't feel comfortable lying down."

Luo Fengtang frowned, stretched out his long arms and pulled her into his arms again, then waved his hands, and the candle over there was also extinguished by him.

"Hey, don't blow the lamp, I still want to sew a few more stitches..." Yang Ruoqing yelled.

The lips were blocked again...

……

The next day, Luo Tiejiang and Yang Huazhong all knew that Luo Fengtang was going to leave in three days. Everyone wanted to keep him, but Yang Ruoqing stopped him.

"Tang Yazi received the imperial decree to put down the rebellion in the southwest. He is going to do something big, so let's not hold him back." Yang Ruoqing said.

When everyone heard this, it was indeed such a rationale. Although they were reluctant to give up, since Yang Ruoqing, the wife, had already spoken, it was hard for them as elders to say anything.

"We Tang Yazi are going to do great things, we need to support, not to be a stumbling block." Yang Huazhong said finally.

Yang Ruoqing nodded repeatedly, "It's rare that Tang Yazi can come back to celebrate Laba this year, let's take action and have a good and lively Laba Festival."

He was leaving in three days. As for when he would return triumphantly, he couldn't give an exact answer now, so Yang Ruoqing naturally didn't ask.

When he can come back, he will come back naturally, because this is his root.

Because Tang Yazi can't have the New Year's Eve dinner at home this year, Mrs. Sun suggested whether to eat the New Year's Eve dinner in advance on Laba Festival?

This idea was quickly approved by Tuoba Xian and Wang Cuilian, and the three women quickly started to deal with it.

By the time Yang Ruoqing knew about it, the signature dish of her hometown, meatballs and patties, which would only appear at banquets during the Chinese New Year and weddings, had already been prepared.

Yang Ruoqing could only smile with her lips curled up at this, and rolled up her sleeves and devoted herself to the preparations for the New Year's Eve dinner and Laba porridge.

But Luo Fengtang couldn't stay at home every day for the past three days, and he had to spare half a day every day to go to Qingshui Town.

Although his two subordinates, General Zhou and General Xie, were in charge of recruiting soldiers, but in the end, Luo Fengtang, the great general who protects the country, had to make the final decision.

Because Luo Fengtang came from the countryside, he joined the army when he was a teenager, participated in countless large and small battles, and established illustrious military exploits.

Up to now, he has been sealed as a general to protect the country, and he is ordered to go to the southwest area to quell the chaos.

He has already become a hero in everyone's mind, a representative of successful people, and let the majority of villagers and elders who are also grassroots see hope.

As a result, many young men who also wanted to serve the country with the same passion, and some strong men who wanted to fight for a future for their families, enthusiastically signed up to join the army.

Not only Wanghai County, but also several towns and villages below, as well as Huguang County and Qianning County next door, the men in Qianning County also bid farewell to their parents, wives and children, and went to join Luo Fengtang.

The National Defense Army is an army with a new designation after reorganization, and the elite and main force inside are still the direct line of the Luo family army trained by Luo Fengtang.

Now that so many soldiers from his hometown have come to join him, Luo Fengtang feels relieved on the one hand, but also feels that he has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

There was a long queue of people who signed up to join the army, but the good and the bad were mixed. Zhou Xie and the two generals followed the recruiting standards drawn up by Luo Fengtang, one by one, and strictly reviewed them. Finally, they sent the list of [-] selected to Luo Fengtang. When Luo Fengtang made a decision, so far, this The wave of recruiting is over for the time being.

Looking at the black recruits on the square, as well as their parents and relatives who came to see them off.

Luo Fengtang's face was stern and cold, calm and composed.

He raised his head and looked at the north wind howling in the winter sky. Today he took away these soldiers from his hometown, and he will try his best to bring them back in the future.

However, once you join the army and become a soldier, you have to face war and blood.

Even he himself, before each expedition, could not guarantee that he would be able to retreat unscathed.

Everyone has their own mission and something they want to defend.

If he can exchange his own sacrifice for the peace and wealth of his wife, children and future generations, he is willing.

Only to die for the country on the battlefield, why return the shrouded body of horse leather!
