The general's wife knows medicine

Chapter 221 Celebration Banquet

The war was over and the danger to the border town was resolved.

"Leave some people to clean up the battlefield, and the rest of you follow this general to escort the prisoners back to the city." Mu Jintang waved his hand and led his men into the city.

The people crowded around to welcome him, their faces filled with excitement and joy, their eyes sparkling with reverence. From the crowd came cheers: "The general is mighty! The general is mighty!" The sound was as loud as thunder, echoing throughout the city.

Some people were even moved to tears. They were full of gratitude to General Weed because General Weed led them through the war-torn years and protected the safety of their homes and loved ones.

Mu Jintang was wearing heavy armor and riding a tall horse. He had a resolute face, a firm gaze, and an incomparable aura of majesty. Facing the enthusiastic cheers of the people, the general smiled and waved in response. This affinity made people feel very warm.

Mu Jintang looked at the enthusiastic people, his heart filled with joy and pride. He dismounted to greet the people and told them that the war was over and peace would return to the border town.

Afterwards, Mu Jintang ordered the soldiers to take the prisoners to the prison to await trial. He knew that these prisoners must be properly handled to prevent further trouble in the future.

He also wrote a letter personally and arranged for someone to rush to the capital to report the news.

The border town was brightly lit at night, and brightly colored ribbons and lanterns were slowly hung on the buildings on both sides of the street. A festive and peaceful atmosphere filled the air. Children ran around, laughing one after another; the elderly stood aside, watching all this with satisfaction. The whole city was immersed in a sea of ​​joy, celebrating the general's victorious return.

All the soldiers and civilians in the border towns are actively preparing for tonight's celebration banquet.

They defended the border town and annihilated the enemy army, so they should naturally celebrate.

It was both a celebration of the victory in the war and a celebration of their survival.

After discussion, Mu Jintang and Wei Dewu thought that all the soldiers and civilians in the city had fought bravely against the enemy, everyone should be rewarded, and everyone had a contribution, so they thought of inviting all the soldiers and civilians in the city to participate in the celebration banquet together.

The celebration banquet was arranged at Caishikou, which has a wide terrain and is very suitable.

At this time, Caishikou was spotlessly clean, and lights were on everywhere, like stars, illuminating every corner.

The long table was spread with a variety of delicacies and fine wines, the aroma was so tempting that it made one salivate.

These are made by combining the wild animals that the people spontaneously hunted in the back mountain with the vegetables grown in their own yards.

Even the wealthy businessmen did not skimp this time and took out food and wine from their cellars.

The dishes here are not as exquisite as those in the palace. They are all farm dishes. However, they are all cooked with care, with good color, aroma and taste, which makes people's appetite grow.

Mu Jintang has now changed out of his heavy armor and is now wearing a very ordinary robe.

Even so, just sitting there, he made people feel a little pressured.

Next to him is Mr. Rong.

Mr. Rong's left arm was stabbed and the doctor hung it on his chest with white cotton cloth.

He was very lucky that his right hand was not cut.

His right hand not only has to write articles, but also has to use chopsticks to eat.

Sitting below Mu Jintang were Wei Dewu and a group of generals.

Although Yang Tingzhen was Mu Jintang's deputy general, he was also given the title of general by the court and was sitting opposite Wei Dewu at the moment.

Everyone shook off the feeling of oppression from the previous two days, and their faces were now filled with joy and pride of victory.

People of Chen, what if you bring an army of 300,000 to attack us this time?

They still resisted the enemy with an army of 100,000 for more than a month, but now the local army has been completely wiped out.

With a burst of passionate drum beats, the celebration banquet officially kicked off.

Mu Jintang stood up slowly, his posture was as straight as a pine tree, his eyes were firm and bright, as if he contained endless power. He looked around at everyone present, his eyes revealing deep respect and admiration.

He knew that the border town relied on 100,000 military advisors to resist the enemy's 300,000 troops. Even if Wei Dewu commanded properly, it might not be able to hold out until he arrived.

However, because of the participation of the common people, they became more cohesive and bought the border town more time.

Therefore, not only the soldiers but also the people of the border town have made contributions in guarding the border town this time.

His voice was deep and magnetic, and every word struck people's hearts like a heavy hammer, full of inspiring power: "Today's battle is our common glory! You are all the bravest people I have ever seen. It is because of your courage and wisdom that we can achieve this great victory!"

His words were like a spring breeze blowing past everyone's ears, stirring up a ripple in their hearts. Everyone felt Mu Jintang's sincerity and passion, and responded with warm applause and cheers.

Then, Mu Jintang raised his glass and said loudly: "This glass of wine, on behalf of His Majesty, I toast to you all!" He raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, his movements were quick and decisive, showing his heroic spirit. With his actions, the atmosphere on the scene was pushed to a climax again, and everyone raised their glasses to celebrate this historic moment.

Everyone stood up at the same time, holding their glasses high in their hands, actively responding to General Weed's call.

At this moment, many people were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears.

They had never thought that they would be able to fight side by side with General Weide, who was as powerful as a god of war, and kill the enemy together; nor did they expect that they would have such a special opportunity to receive a personal toast from General Weide!

Although they had never seen the emperor's true appearance with their own eyes, they knew that he was unattainable and out of reach.

In contrast, General Weed was their hero because they had witnessed his bravery with their own eyes and knew him well as a person.

Now, not only can they fight the enemy together with this long-admired general, but they can also drink fine wine together. It is simply a dreamlike experience!

Mu Jintang didn't expect that this time of fun together between the military and civilians would win him a lot of support from the people.

After a few rounds of drinking, everyone gradually relaxed and there was laughter and joy.

"General, a group of people came from outside the city. They said they are here to look for your family and for you." The soldier guarding the city walked up to Mu Jintang and bowed to report.

Mu Jintang was confused, but thinking that she was still a little uncomfortable at the banquet, she used this as an excuse to leave the party.

Mu Jintang stood at the city gate and watched the soldiers slowly open the gate.

A familiar carriage was parked at the city gate.
