Chapter 606: How Could Farmers Have Such a Battle?
A few days later, Chu Di.
Although it is almost autumn, the weather is still extremely hot.
In one field, every weed was drooped in the sun.
Suddenly, a pair of rough, dirt-covered old hands grasped the roots of the weeds.
With a heavy breathing sound like a bellows, it was uprooted.
Then the owner of the hand, an old farmer who seemed to have only bones and skin left, put the weeds on his hand far away.
After wiping his forehead, which looked like it was made up of countless small dry rivers, the old farmer continued to bend down and work.
It wasn't until the sun reached the middle of the day that it became unbearable and the old farmer was ready to take a rest.
Nowadays, most of the fields are filled with old farmers like them, and the young people are either captured and sent to fight.
Don't just go out and hide in trouble.
So you can only rely on yourself.
At this time, a similarly old voice came from the field ridge,
"Old man, come and take a rest."
When the old farmer saw his wife, he smiled and walked over slowly.
"Come, have something to eat."
As soon as they arrived at the field ridge, the peasant woman took out a small parcel of coarse cloth from her arms, which contained something that looked like a lump of earth.
After the peasant woman broke it open, the inside was as white as jade.
Just seeing this food, the old farmer was not particularly happy, but looked solemn and said,
"Why did you steam the potato seeds? Don't you still have some wild vegetables at home?"
"I'm not that hungry."
Of course he knew this thing. It was the potato seeds given to them by the farmers.
Although they have never seen it, the things given by the farmers are always correct.
And these names are just right, they also live off the land.
I have told you that these things are very precious.
Wait for germination and plant before winter.
His old lady has always been very sensible. What happened today?
When the peasant woman heard this, she explained again and again,
"This is what the farmers distributed today. No matter how hungry the old woman is, she won't touch the seeds!"
The old farmer felt relieved and sat down.
I forced the peasant woman to eat some first.
The old farmer took some with his hands and put it in his mouth, not daring to waste any more.
The two have supported each other throughout their lives, so naturally they will not be separated because of this matter.
Feeling the softness of the food in his mouth, he couldn't help but smile.
You only eat one meal a day, and you should naturally enjoy these foods.
After swallowing the food in his mouth, the old farmer asked,
"What's the explanation for the farmer's visit this time? Don't forget it."
The peasant woman thought for a while and replied,
"The farmers said that some leader needed us farmers, and asked the farmers around Gaixia to help."
"Well, there may be a war coming, and the farmers need help."
Hearing this, the old farmer was stunned for a moment, then stood up immediately and said,
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll go right away."
But he was grabbed by the peasant woman and said,
"I asked my mother-in-law, and the farmer said that as long as you are under sixty, you are already over sixty."
"Going there will only cause more trouble."
The old farmer said stubbornly,
"Who said I'm sixty? I'm obviously only fifty-nine!"
"We are not farmers. We have starved to death in the past two years. How can we wait for Da Wazi and others?"
"This time even the leader came out to call for help, it must be a big deal!"
“If we don’t help the farmers, who else can help them?”
The old farmer knows the leader of the farm family.
Because from the beginning, the farmers said that these things were given by the leader.
Although I have never seen it, I still remember the feeling in my heart.
Farmers are just like the land. If you treat them well, they will treat you well.
It has been two years, and this is the first time the farmer leader has issued a summons!
So, no matter what he says, he has to go!
The peasant woman was a little sad when she heard the old farmer mention the big boy. The big boy was forcibly taken away by the Chu army and there was no news about him.
Wiping the corners of her eyes, the peasant woman said to the old farmer,
"Who's missing you, old guy? Everyone in the village has already gone!"
The old farmer couldn't sit still anymore.
"Then how can you leave me out?"
After saying that, he got up and walked towards the village.
The peasant woman carefully put away her coarse cloth parcel.
There's half a potato left here, enough to last two people half a day.
Then he chased after the old farmer.
The two of them returned to the village all the way and saw the farmer leading people out. They hurried up and said,
"And I!"
Seeing the old farmer, the farmer said quickly,
"You should stay at home, there are enough people in the village."
The old farmer stared and said,
"How can this person not have enough? Do you think I have lost my strength?"
"I just finished working on an acre of land today!"
Seeing the other party's show of force, the farmer quickly explained,
"We are going to Gaixia this time, but it is far away."
"Gaixia?"
There was a trace of confusion in the old farmer's eyes. He had never traveled far.
When the other farmers saw this scene, instead of trying to persuade them, they shouted,
"Hahaha, Old Sheep Head, the farmer is right, don't get lost on the road!"
"And he also said that we are going to confront the Chu army!"
But he quickly replied,
"Gaixia, Gaixia, I can't walk anymore!?"
"If you don't take me with you, no one can leave!"
"I'm willing to stop on the road! It would be better to meet Chu Jun. I just happened to go see Da Wazi."
When the old farmer mentioned Da Wazi, everyone became silent.
They knew that the eldest son was probably dead, but they didn't dare to say it openly.
No one from whose family was forcibly taken away?
Everyone just keeps a little thought in their hearts.
The farmers have been in contact with these people for so long and know their temperament, so they can only agree with a wry smile.
However, he didn't dare to let anyone stop him on the road, so he quickly took out two steamed potatoes from his arms and put them into the other person's hands.
"If you don't want to eat, then let's not leave!"
In terms of logistics, the farmers have made good arrangements.
There is nothing good, but the potatoes shipped from Yunmengze can barely sustain it.
The old farmer can only take it over.
Soon, the group set out again under the leadership of the farmer.
The journey is long, but there are more and more companions on the road.
Just like a drop of water, it merges into a small stream, and then merges into a big river!
A few days later, the old farmer looked at the team in front of him with no end in sight and no end in sight. His expression was a little dazed.
Are these really all farmers?
How could farmers have such a battle?
The peasant woman on the side was holding the old farmer's hand tightly. They had never seen so many people in their lives.
Fortunately, although there were many people, the order was extremely good.
During the break, the old farmer sat on the ground like everyone else and gave the food to the farmer's wife.
I was about to eat, but after walking for so many days, I was inevitably a little tired.
With a shake of his hand, the potato fell into the soil.
The old farmer felt distressed and hurriedly picked it up.
The one who didn't feel dirty at all was about to put it in his mouth, but was stopped by a pair of beautiful hands.
Looking up, he saw an extremely handsome young man squatting in front of him with a smile.
"Old man, after working so hard for so long, it's not good for your health to eat this if you drop it on the floor."
"I took these and ate them, you eat mine."
With that said, he gave him his potatoes.
The old farmer had no time to refuse, and the other party left with the dirty potatoes.
The old farmer looked at the potatoes in his hand and asked the farmer in confusion,
"who is he?"
The farmer looked at the young man's leaving figure and said with a very complicated expression,
"He is our leader." (To be continued) chaptererror();
