Tian Meng's loud and deep voice echoed in the area!
Meritorious service and marquis title!
Meritorious service and the title of Marquis!
This was the dream of every hot-blooded soldier!
Countless soldiers and generals were fighting for this goal and constantly spilling their blood!
Li Guang had fought for his entire life and experienced countless battles, but he had always regretted not being conferred the title of Marquis!
It even caused countless descendants to sigh!
At this moment, when the 10,000 soldiers heard Tian Meng's voice, their hearts heaved and their eyes shone brightly!
Merit!
Not bad!
They wanted to make contributions! He wanted to obtain a reward! Money! Money and food! They wanted land! He wanted servants! They wanted to stand out! He wanted to return to his hometown in glory! He wanted to bring honor to his ancestors and his family!
They even wanted to make a great contribution and dream of being conferred the title of marquis, passing down their titles and resting with the country!
" Meritorious service and the title of Marquis!!"
" Meritorious service and the title of Marquis!!"
" Meritorious service and the title of Marquis!!"
……
Countless soldiers raised their weapons and shouted in unison.
Although many people knew how difficult it was to become a marquis, it didn't stop them from dreaming!
They were all newly trained recruits who had participated in the rebellion. Although most of them were only in charge of logistics and had not experienced battlefield battles, they had seen with their own eyes how countless soldiers were rewarded for their contributions. They had also heard with their own ears that many soldiers were promoted to marquises!
Moreover, wasn't the general standing in front of them, who looked about the same age as them, conferred the title of marquis because of his military achievements?
They might be able to do it too!
He could also be like General Tian, who had made outstanding contributions and was given the title of Marquis!
Gungun's voice was filled with the anticipation of countless soldiers for the future!
Tian Qiong looked at the army with high morale and was very satisfied!
These soldiers had yet to become seasoned soldiers, but their words made countless soldiers look forward to it.
The loud noise lasted for a while before it slowly subsided.
Seeing that the army had calmed down, Tian Meng pulled out his sword and pointed it to the north. He shouted,
"Let's go!"
As Tian Kong gave the order for the army to set off, the two of them were stunned.
rumble ~
The army began to march, and the red flag of the Han Army began to flutter towards the north.
The army moved very quickly, but Chang 'an was quite far from Yanmen Prefecture. The army had to march for eight days before they reached the territory of Yanmen Prefecture!
Yanmen Prefecture was an important prefecture in the border region. It had jurisdiction over 14 to 15 counties, including Shanwu, Wuzhou, Zhongling, Mayi, Loufan, Ping Cheng, and so on.
Yanmen Prefecture was located in Shanwu City of Shanwu County!
Shan Wu City was also the county city!
However, it was said that the capital of Yanmen Prefecture had been breached by the Xiongnu. He wondered how the situation there was.
The army was led by Tian Qiong, who was riding on a warhorse.
However, not long after the army entered Yanmen County!
On the official road that he was walking on, he found that there were several groups of people who were using oxen or horses to pull simple wooden carts.
These commoners carried their bags, and the wooden carts were piled with bowls, jars, and other daily necessities.
Looking at their situation, they looked like they were moving.
"Mayor, these people look like they are moving?”
A general at the side said to Tian Meng.
Tian Meng could see it too!
Moreover, this was not a simple move. It was more like an entire family escaping from this place!
He looked at a cart pulled by a cow not far away. Behind the cart was a middle-aged couple dressed in plain clothes and looking a little tired.
Next to the couple were two seven or eight-year-old children. Their clothes were tattered and their faces and bodies were dirty.
It seemed that this family had been gone for a long time.
Tian Qiong jumped off his horse, and the generals behind him followed suit.
Very soon, Tian Meng walked up to the family member.
"Greetings, General…"
The exhausted couple hurriedly bowed to Tian Qiong and the other generals.
"Hey, there's no need to be so polite!"
Tian Meng quickly went up to support them and stopped them from bowing.
After the two of them got up, Tian Meng looked at the scattered things in their car and asked them in confusion,
"Are you moving your entire family?"
The two middle-aged couples looked at Tian Meng's calm expression and did not put on the dignity of a general.
"Yes, General, we are leaving our hometown!”
The skinny middle-aged husband shook his head and sighed, his face full of reluctance.
"Oh? Was it because of the Xiongnu invasion?”Tian Meng asked as he looked at them.
"Yes, General. The Xiongnu are really cruel and brutal. We don't want to stay here in fear anymore. If we didn't escape to the mountains in time, we would have been killed or captured to the grasslands!”
The skinny middle-aged man continued with a pained expression,
"There was a village next to us. The people in the village were either kidnapped or killed. The entire village was empty and there was blood everywhere. No one collected the corpses. We had to wait until the Xiongnu left before we hurriedly cleaned up! He's really a demon. How hateful!"
"If it wasn't for the fact that my entire family depended on me to feed them, I would have killed a few Xiongnu dogs even if I had to risk my life!”
Hearing his words and looking at the middle-aged man's pained expression, the anger in Tian Kong's heart burned.
"Damn it!"
"Damn Xiongnu dogs!"
"We must kill them!"
The generals behind him were also furious.
It was obvious that if they were not forced into despair and did not want to encounter such a thing again, who would be willing to leave their homeland and hometown?
"Don't leave. The imperial court has already sent troops to guard the border. The border will be very stable in the future.”
Tian Meng suppressed the rising anger in his heart and spoke to him seriously.
"Is that so? General?"
The skinny middle-aged man looked at Tian Qiong and then at the army. Clearly, they felt a sense of security when they saw the army.
Tian Meng nodded and continued,
"Go back and move to an unfamiliar place. You're unfamiliar with the place and have no one to rely on. Life will be even more difficult than here!”
The skinny middle-aged man listened with a conflicted expression.
However, as he looked at Tian Qiong and the other generals, then at the army, hope finally reignited in his eyes. He nodded and said,
"Alright, we trust the general. Let's go back!”
