Flying Clouds in Another World

Chapter 351 Finally Back to My Homeland

When Gao Xian learned that Liu Feiyun kept all the hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war in Anping County for his own use instead of selling them as before, he couldn't help but feel moved:

It seems that this little butcher and the Liu family have other ideas! It seems that it is time for our Gao family to make a choice.

Then, he looked at the document of request for merit sent by Liu Feiyun, especially the part about his son Gao Jinda risking his life to pacify the rebel army and making great contributions, and he made a decision in his heart.

However, Liu Feiyun was no longer satisfied with the small Anping County.

After he announced the decision on how to deal with the prisoners of war, he immediately summoned all the leaders and chieftains of the rebel army.

"Now I will give you a chance to redeem yourself! Didn't you capture five counties in Anya County before? Now, I will order you to cooperate with me and bring those five counties back to the imperial court!"

Liu Feiyun went straight to the point and spoke directly.

Gongsun Yian asked cautiously:

"My Lord Earl! Although these five counties are still nominally ours, we have already surrendered to the imperial court. I am afraid that the leaders guarding the cities will no longer recognize us!"

Liu Feiyun said disdainfully:

"We have our Tiger Power Guards, Cloud Tiger Guards, and Anping Township Soldiers. So what if they don't recognize us? We can just destroy them! If that's not enough, my Liu family also has some Green Willow Guards, all of whom are martial arts masters and can cooperate with us!"

"Also, you can definitely pick out some capable soldiers from among your subordinates! How about this, select 6,000 men from among your subordinates, temporarily name them slaves, and send another 1,000 slaves from each county to cooperate with the government troops. This way, we will be infallible!"

"Of course, it would be even better if you can recruit them! If anyone succeeds, I, Liu Feiyun, will remember his great merit and he will be included in the upper echelons of my Liu family! Of course, those who fought bravely will also be included in this list!"

"I've given you this opportunity, it depends on who can seize it!"

After just a few days, the five county towns in Anya County that had been previously captured and occupied by the rebel army were all recaptured by the government troops from Anping County.

These county towns usually have only two to three thousand defenders, and the number of combat troops among them is less than one thousand.

The so-called official army consisted of only the Anping militia, the private army of the Liu family's butchers, the Green Willow Guards and slaves, each with about a thousand people.

With the cooperation of the surrendered rebel leaders, only one of the county towns chose to resist, while the other four towns chose to open the city and surrender.

This only city that resisted was quickly conquered.

At this point, these five counties were actually controlled by the Liu family. For a long time afterwards, the people of these five counties only recognized the Anping Liu family and did not recognize the newly appointed county magistrates by the court, unless they were recommended by the Liu family.

Of course, these are all things to follow.

Now, after several days of busy work, after dealing with matters related to the rebellious army and completing the written handover of the territory with the county magistrate Gao Xian, he can finally go home.

Although Liu Feiyun had passed by his home and seen his father before, he passed by the house without entering. He only greeted his father briefly and they parted without saying a few words.

At this time, Liu Feiyun was already eager to return home.

Liu Feiyun galloped all the way, and the closer he got to home, the more uneasy he felt.

I haven't seen them for a few years, and I don't know how my family is doing or if everything is okay.

Especially my eldest sister who went home some time ago, I wonder if she encountered any danger on the way.

When Liu Feiyun arrived at the main gate of the Earl's Mansion, the square in front of the door was already crowded with people.

Liu Feiyun's mother, Chu Bihe, was eagerly waiting with her daughters.

When everyone saw the galloping horse team from afar, cheers broke out and many people began to talk.

"Here he comes! Here he comes! The young master is back!"

"Ah! The young master is really back!"

"Now, the young master is also an earl! Now our Anping Liu family has two earls! And they are both territorial nobles! Now, our Liu family is really going to soar to the sky!"

"What's the point of being an earl! What's the point of being a territorial noble! The young master has raised an army of tens of thousands in the Northern Wilderness in just a few months. This is the most amazing thing!"

"Yes, yes! If the young master had not been unwilling to kill the prisoners, he would still be a military commander now! Three generations of military commanders in one family, this is not something that any noble family can compare to!"

"So what if you are not a military commander? Young Master still controls a lot of barbarian soldiers! I heard that more than 100,000 soldiers were captured in this rebellion! Maybe the military strength of our Anping Liu family will be further expanded!"

"It's a chaotic time now, with bandits and armies everywhere. Even the emperor has ordered all places to expand their armies! Only in Anping County, with the protection of our Liu family, has there been no major chaos!"

"Yes, yes! Now that the young master is back, we have two earls, one old and one young, protecting us, so we are even safer!"

"He's back! He's back! My son is finally back!"

Chu Bihe didn't have too many thoughts at this moment, the only thing in her heart was concern for Liu Feiyun.

Now that she sees her son returning safely, she can finally put down the heavy worry in her heart.

Next to her was her eldest daughter Liu Qianqian, who had returned home a few months ago.

At this moment, Liu Qianqian's belly is already bulging, and she is about to become a mother!

Liu Feiyun finally reached his mother, quickly dismounted, trotted to her, knelt down and bowed:

"Mother! The unfilial son Liu Feiyun! ...is back!"

As he said this, he kowtowed several times.

Chu Bihe smiled with tears in her eyes, "It's good that you're back! It's good that you're back!... It's all your father and I's fault. We are so cruel!... Hey! Get up quickly! Get up quickly! Let's go home! Go home!"

Liu Feiyun stood up and formally introduced Chen Tingyuan and Sima Mingqu to Chu Bihe.

Earth-level strongmen are worthy of respect no matter where they are or in any force.

In the past, there were only a few people in the Liu family.

Chu Bihe naturally treated them with courtesy and thanked them repeatedly for protecting her only son.

Chen Tingyuan looked flattered and kept saying he didn't dare. Sima Mingqu responded calmly, neither humble nor arrogant.

Next came Shi Mingchi, the son of a noble family whom Liu Feiyun had never expected would resolutely join him.

Introducing him to his mother at this time is also a statement: himself or the Liu family is willing to accept him.

After introducing several important figures, Liu Feiyun, along with his mother and sisters, returned to his home after not returning for several years.

As they walked, Liu Feiyun couldn't help but ask about his elder sister's journey back home.

He was very worried that someone would rob and kill his elder sister on the way.

"My journey was relatively smooth, except for a few minor troubles! But with Mu He and the others here, it was just a close call!"

Liu Qianqian answered nonchalantly.

"A near miss!? Do you know who did it?"

"The Yuan Yan family! The Yuan Yan family from Jinzhou! They didn't hide their identities!"

"The Yuan Yan family! It's the Yuan Yan family again! Damn the Yuan Yan family, they keep provoking our Liu family. I think they are really tired of living!"

When Liu Feiyun heard this, his eyes turned cold.
