Chapter 54 Old Brother

The scene in front of you is undoubtedly very shocking.

Seventeen old men with white hair were all white, and half kneeled on the ground with difficulty, performing the military salutes of the past, and everyone was filled with tears.

Ye Sheng may not recognize all these people before, and basically they don’t even know them all. After all, there are too many people who have fought with him, so he cannot remember these soldiers at the bottom.

But each of these people remembered him.

Marshal Ye, who was like a god of war, was the first to be a Marshal Ye!

Ye Sheng now looks ordinary, like an ordinary old man who is caring for flowers and plants at home. However, because of the rushing force back then, he had a very high prestige in the army, especially in the Northern Expedition Army at that time, and was terrible.

So high that the broad-minded Emperor Wu had to be afraid of this general who made great contributions.

At that time, as long as Ye Sheng climbed the high school and called him, at least 90% of the people in the Northern Expedition Army would respond and fight back to the capital with him.

Moreover, at that time, Ye Sheng had already reached the capital of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. With his huge influence at that time, he would not have to go back to the capital and be the emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty in the capital of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

In comparison, Li Xin was once a general of the Imperial Army. If he climbed the high ground during the Western Expedition, the result would be that his subordinates would quickly find a hemp rope to tie him up and take him to the capital to receive a reward.

This is the gap.

When it comes to being scheming, Li Xin may not be inferior to Old Man Ye, but when it comes to leading troops to fight, at least "leading troops", Li Xin is much inferior to his teacher.

To this day, many people in the Jin Dynasty sighed for Ye Sheng. If the court could continue to trust General Ye after the Northern Expedition, not only would the Northern Zhou Dynasty be destroyed in the north be destroyed, but the Tubo in the west be likely to be included in the territory of the Jin Dynasty.

These seventeen people have not seen Ye Sheng for decades, but everyone has not forgotten the unparalleled Marshal Ye who was on the battlefield forty years ago. Now they are all in their seventies. When they see Ye Sheng again, everyone is very excited.

Old Man Ye, who was unable to walk steadily, was staggering, but he walked towards the seventeen old brothers with great determination.

Although he did not recognize these people, he was all brothers who fought with him back then. Ye Sheng was a very nostalgic person, and he recognized these brothers.

Because of the slow walking, the road from the gate of Duke Chen's mansion to the seventeen people seemed particularly long, so long that Li Xin wanted to step forward to help his teacher, but as soon as he took a step, he sighed and retreated.

At this time, if you go up to help, Master Ye will be unhappy.

No matter how long the road is, there are still times when he is about to come to the end. Ye Sheng finally walked in front of these people. After he arrived, he stood there and took several breaths, and then he slowly bent down with difficulty and helped Lao Wang Zhong, who was kneeling in front, up.

"Brothers, get up."

Old man Ye showed a happy smile on his face.

"Everyone is getting older. If you hurt your body again, it will cost me my life."

Because he was afraid that something might happen to Ye Sheng, Li Xin followed him. At this moment, he was standing more than ten steps nearby. After seeing Ye Sheng's smile, he was very moved.

Calculate the days, Li Xin met this Duke Chen in the 18th year of Chengde, and until the first year of Taikang, the two of them had known each other for so many years, and Li Xin also talked with Ye Sheng many times in private. During this period, Ye Sheng was also angry and laughed, but in the past ten years, Li Xin smiled so sincerely when he saw his teacher.

Seventeen old men got up from the ground one after another, and bowed to Ye Sheng, just like their Marshal Ye to celebrate his birthday.

Old Man Ye was laughing the happiest now.

When I was celebrating my birthday in previous years, I don’t know how many people would kowtow to him to celebrate his birthday, but Ye Sheng always went in his left ear and out of his right ear because he looked down on those who worshiped the birthday, but some of these old brothers who couldn’t walk steadily celebrated his birthday. Ye Sheng felt very happy after hearing this.

He reached out and held Wang Zhong's hand, and said with a smile: "What do you think of standing at the door of your house? Brothers, go and sit at my house."

He did not go to pull Wang Zhong, but asked Wang Zhong to support him.

Among these people, everyone has more or less physical problems because they are older. Only Wang Zhong, who has started practicing internal martial arts since childhood, is still quite strong now.

Anyone who practices kung fu knows some medical skills, so Wang Zhong is naturally the same. On weekdays, the soldiers of the Yulin Guard have any bruises and injuries, or broken bones, and the most important breath of internal martial arts is. When they are so close, he can clearly detect Old Man Ye's breath... it is already very unstable.

Old Wang Zhong, who was in his early seventies, had a little red eyes. He lowered his head, supported Ye Sheng with force, and then said with tears in his eyes: "Brothers, Marshal Ye, please visit us at the mansion."

Except for Wang Zhong, the other sixteen people were red after hearing this. Not all of them were working in the yamen. Among them were old farmers who had been farming for decades, with their trousers rolled up and muddy on their feet. He looked up at the tall gate of Duke Chen's mansion and took a few steps back with a little shrunk.

"I... I still have a farmland at home to take care of..."

Ye Sheng has lived for 80 years and has never seen any kind of worldly affairs. Seeing this, he could see the old brother's thoughts at a glance. With Wang Zhong's support, he walked up to the old farmer, stretched out his other hand, held the old farmer's hand, and grinned and said, "Old brother, I am also a farmer. It's Mayday now. The wheat is confiscated and the rice is not planted. You can give the old brother a face and go to my house to get together. Is it okay?"

His tone was requested.

The old farmer burst into tears. He nodded and choked and said, "Mr. Ye..."

Old Man Ye shook his head: "Where is Marshal Ye?"

"Today are eighteen old soldiers from the Northern Expedition Army. I invite my brothers to go to their homes to have a few glasses of wine to reminisce about the past."

As he said that, he held Wang Zhong with one hand and the old farmer with the other, and walked towards the gate of Duke Chen's mansion.

When he walked under the gate of Duke Chen's mansion, he smiled at the old farmer on his right and said, "Brother, don't look at the tall portal. At our age, it's not bullshit."

"It's not as comfortable as living in the two tiled houses in my hometown."

As soon as these words were finished, all eighteen people laughed out loud.

Indeed, material life is no longer so important when you live to their age. The only difference is that you can leave something for future generations.

So eighteen people supported each other and walked towards the backyard of Duke Chen's mansion little by little.

Ye Lin, Ye Mao and others, afraid that something would happen, followed behind them. The old man glared at him and scolded: "Get away, don't bother me and my brothers to drink!"

Ye Lin and Ye Mao both shrank their necks, but they had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow them all the way.

Only Marquis Jing'an did not follow in, but just stood at the gate of Duke Chen's mansion, thinking about something.

A familiar voice sighed behind him.

"Forty years have passed, and the old Duke is still like a god in the hearts of old friends."

Li Xin did not look back, but just slowly breathed.
