Chapter 119: The Love Debt That Falls from the Sky
Without staying in Katak City for too long, the Third Division set out on the road back to Beijing again, and it was less than two days away. If you go west at this time, you can reach Qiubo City in just two or three days.
After leaving the city gate, Moknash followed behind David Mo and suggested: "Teacher, why not go west and go to Qiubo City to take a look."
His proposal immediately received responses from many officers around him. Anyway, the emperor did not say when he would go back, and no one would say anything even if he went to Qiubo City.
Facing the words of the people around him, David Mo shook his head, and he smiled faintly: "The emperor is still waiting for us to come to Beijing to report his duties. Qiu Bo City is a private matter, so how can he abolish the public for personal gain!"
In fact, he also longed to see his own territory, but unfortunately he knew his current situation in his heart - it seemed to be glorious, but in fact it was like walking on thin ice!
Of course he knew what a rich fief represented, and he could not get such rewards based on his military achievements. Moreover, he had no foundation in the empire, and suddenly rose to such a high position, I am afraid that many people would be unable to convince themselves.
So when he saw Moknash, he shook his head gently and said, "Don't discuss this matter again. I have decided to go back to Beijing as soon as possible."
On the next road, I never encountered any other people from the Necromancer system. Everyone was cheering and officials at all levels asked for their visit, but they were rejected by Mo David one by one.
Two days later, the entire army finally arrived at noon, and the mighty city of Yale was close at hand. Yelu XIII, who had already heard the news, had already ordered the first-class marquis, and the Minister of Military Operations, Budilson, personally led officials at all levels of the Military Operations Department to go out to greet him.
I saw flags waving and dust flying in the distance. A mighty army gradually appeared on the horizon. A cavalry rushed over and turned over and fell off the horse. He knelt in front of Budilson's carriage and shouted: "Report to the Lord, the Third Division of the Royal Imperial Army has arrived!"
Budilson gently lifted the curtain and asked him to retreat, and said to the guards surrounded by him: "The army is back in triumph, let's go forward to greet them together!" Then, following his carriage, dozens of officials' carriages moved forward together.
At this time, David Mo had already learned the news of Budilson's greeting. Seeing a group of soldiers coming from afar, he hurriedly ordered the entire army to stop.
An official had just arrived to inform him of his etiquette, and the Minister of Military Affairs came to greet him. According to his official position, he had to dismount and greet him.
So he immediately shouted: "The whole army dismounts! Follow me on foot!" The flag was waving, and several commanders rushed away and ordered Mo David's orders.
More than 5,000 people took the order to dismount, followed behind David Mo, and faced the welcoming guard of honor who was riding in a carriage.
After the two sides approached, someone immediately came up to introduce Budilson's car. David Mo hurriedly bowed and said, "David Mo, the commander of the Third Division of the Royal Imperial Army, pay homage to the Minister of Military Affairs!"
As his voice fell, more than 5,000 people shouted at the same time: "Meet the Minister of Military Affairs!" The whole scene was extremely spectacular, and the huge sound was deafening.
Sitting while Budilson saw that David Mo did not kneel down. The dissatisfaction in his eyes flashed. He slowly pushed open the carriage door and walked down with a smile on his face. A group of guards immediately surrounded him.
Budilson, who was like stars holding the moon, laughed and said, "How might it be! How might it be! All the soldiers quickly and exempted the gifts!" Then he broke free from the guards around him, and took David Mo's arm forward and looked up and down.
When other officials around saw Budilson getting off the carriage, they had no choice but to walk out of the carriage. David Mo glanced at the officials around him and felt a little chill, but his face was not revealed.
"I didn't expect that, I was clearly a gentle and elegant scholar, and I didn't look like a fierce general on the battlefield!" The smile on his face became stronger and stronger. He glanced at the officers surrounding David Mo, and nodded, "All of them are pillars of the empire! The sky in southern Xinjiang has finally been supported by you!"
David Mo broke free from Buddilson's pull without leaving any trace, and bowed slightly and said, "It is the duty of the soldiers to serve the king, and I have been too rewarded."
A hint of anger flashed in Budilson's eyes again. He had been in a high position for many years and had already developed the habit of being domineering. David Mo's attitude of neither humble nor arrogant is undoubtedly a disrespect in his eyes!
However, he has been ups and downs in the officialdom for many years, and has become familiar with the control of emotions. He is calm and calm, restrains his smile on his face and said lightly: "The country needs a pillar like Master Mo! He is not arrogant or impatient, and is a role model for the court officials!"
Seeing that David Mo's face was still salty and unpretentious, he sneered in his heart and then said, "Master Mo, there is still an imperial edict to give to you."
After he finished speaking, the man next to him who looked like Xue Zhe handed over a wooden box. Budilson took the wooden box and opened it. After the silver-white anti-counterfeiting light flashed inside.
David Mo took the lead in kneeling on one knee. As he knelt down, the entire army behind him fell to his knees like a Nomi domino in an instant. Looking at thousands of people kneeling on the ground, a hint of pride flashed in Budilson's eyes, and then he opened the imperial edict and began to choose and read.
"The God of Light shines everywhere, and the Holy Empire is prosperous: All the soldiers of the Third Division return to the camp immediately, and the aftermath reward is awarded by the Military Affairs Office. Because the second-class marquis of the Empire and the commander of the Third Division of the Royal Imperial Army, Mo David, was poor at home, so he specially granted the No. 15 Langning Street Manor for living! I admire this!"
After reading it, Budilson handed over the imperial edict to David Mo and smiled and said, "Teacher Mo is deeply grateful for the holy heart, which is really gratifying!"
After receiving the order, Mo David turned over from the ground. Hearing Budilson's words, he quickly said modestly: "The emperor's kindness is so great, David can only die effectively to repay His Majesty!"
Budilson chuckled twice, without comment, and then said to David Mo: "The emperor hopes that officers at all levels of the Third Division can report their duties as soon as possible, so I hope you don't delay it for too long..."
Before David Mo could speak, he continued, "As for your performance report, you don't have to hand it over to our Military Affairs Office. The emperor wants to listen to your performance report tonight. If you are waiting in the mansion, then someone will pick you up."
According to the military regulations, all large army troops must report their duties to the Military Affairs Office after returning to the court. The emperor generally does not ask about this matter. Only when the generals he likes very much will the emperor interview in person.
Although Budilson didn't like Mo David, he could not deny that Mo David is now in the heart of the emperor and is deeply loved by the emperor.
Seeing David Mo nodding, he smiled at David Mo and said, "Why would I take you to see the manor on Langning Street first, and then hold a banquet for you to welcome you?"
David Mo looked a little embarrassed and declined: "There are still many things to be explained in the army. I appreciate the kindness of the adults. Please visit me in person!"
When Budilson saw him refuse, he did not show any anger and smiled faintly: "The door of my husband's house will always be open for you! You must come when you have time!" After saying that, he smiled slightly and ignored David Mo, turned around and boarded the carriage and led everyone away.
Tielibi looked at the carriage that was leaving, and said fiercely, "A bird man, my teacher came with a horse, but he dared to sit in the carriage!"
Moknash did not stop Tielbee because his heart was also full of anger and said coldly: "These officials are not afraid of the coldness of the soldiers! Going in the wind and rain, is it just for such people to enjoy wealth?!"
Several officers behind them also shouted and cursed. When David Mo saw them getting more and more excited, he finally shook his head gently and said lightly: "They are willing to put on airs, so let them put on it. After all, we only serve the emperor and have no relationship with them."
He didn't want to get involved with everyone anymore. He smiled faintly and said, "I'll go back to the camp to settle down first. I haven't returned to the camp for so many days, so I'm afraid there will be dust inside."
The Third Division's school camp was built outside the city. Except for the emperor's personal inspection, few troops were able to enter the city. At that time, more than 5,000 people were on their backs and headed for the school camp again.
In the parliament hall in the school camp, David Mo sat in the coaching position. This position originally belonged to Kubrey, with Kubrey's death in battle, now belongs to him.
"Every ashes of the dead soldier must be sent back, and this matter will be left to Moknash." He said this, thinking of another thing, turned to Moknash and said, "The million gold coins you have to be distributed today."
Seeing everyone looking at Moknash, he explained: "This money is the material we seized, but it was not reported to the court. The soldiers sacrificed their lives. I don't think there is anything wrong with doing this."
Then after he ordered things one by one, including holidays, pensions and duty matters, he finally announced the end of the meeting.
After everyone left, Mulin Gail walked to him, his face was a little embarrassed, and he bowed and whispered: "Teacher Commander, there is a little beggar outside the camp who kept shouting to see you..."
David Mo picked up the teacup and said lightly: "What do you, the battalion commander of the guards, do for food?! These little beggars just want two meals and give them some money to send them away."
Seeing his face a little displeasure, Mulin Gail rolled his eyes with some resentment, and finally hesitated: "I gave him money, but he just didn't leave. He insisted that you owe a debt of love, and that you are going to pay for your debt..."
David Mo drank a sip of tea and frowned slightly, "I owe love debts? Do you believe such nonsense? If you give money, don't leave, just beat it with sticks!"
Mulin Gail's face turned red. When he saw David Mo glaring at him, he finally told the truth: "He also shouted... He said that you have made his sister's belly bigger... He insisted on giving you an explanation."
David Mo was drinking tea, but when he heard his words, he was choked and his saliva was sprayed all over the table. He didn't care much about it now, so he directly put the cup on the table and walked out quickly.
Outside the camp gate of the schoolyard, when David Mo saw this little beggar, his first reaction was that he looked familiar! (To be continued.)
