“Cheng, where are we now?”
Kylor poked his head out of the car window and asked Su Cheng who was driving.
“Let me see…”
Su Cheng drove the car with one hand, and took out the map with the other hand and began to look seriously.
Su Cheng’s driving skills are quite good. Even with one hand, he can easily drive a carriage that is driven by two horses.
“We are now in Soma County.”
“Soma County…” Alisha chewed on the name. “I seem to have heard this name… and heard it more than once.”
“You’ve heard this name is normal.” Su Cheng smiled, “Soma County is a well-known and affluent place in the south of our country. It is said that the economy is so developed that it tops the south of our country.”
Su Cheng’s words immediately increased the expectations of everyone in the carriage.
Even Su Cheng’s chest is full of anticipation, full of anticipation for this affluent place that has long been admired by its name.
…
…
“Mom, look at it.”
Teresa pointed her little finger out the window.
“Someone!”
The carriage is now driving on a fairly wide field.
On both sides of Tianlong, there are neatly cut rice fields.
Teresa is referring to the farmers working in the rice fields.
“Hmm…”
Looking at these farmers working in the rice fields, Su Cheng’s brows gradually frowned.
Because Su Cheng noticed something strange.
Perceived to be strange, there are three others, Kylor, Alyssa, and Alan.
Only Teresa and Maria, who were innocent of life, lay on the cart and looked at the peasants working in the rice fields with curious eyes, as well as the still immature rice seedlings.
“Brother…” Alan said softly to Su Cheng, “Why… there are some old guys who work in Tian…?”
What Su Cheng and others have noticed is that the people who work in the rice fields are middle-aged and elderly people aged 4 to 50.
Even among these middle-aged and elderly people, a few white-haired figures can be seen.
Looking around, I didn’t see any young adults.
“Ah, Su Cheng, look at it, there is a village ahead.”
Eliza, who has the best eyesight among the people, said as she pointed forward.
Su Cheng narrowed his eyes and stared forward.
It was found that, as Alisha said, the horizon in front showed faint, angular lines.
Only buildings have such lines.
Su Cheng could barely see a few smokes rising from these lines.
“…It just so happened that our horse was about to rest.” Su Cheng said softly, “Let’s go to the village in front to meet our feet.”
…
…
The villagers in this rural area are very friendly.
After seeing that Su Cheng and others are just ordinary travelers, they generously let them into the village to provide Su Cheng and others with a place to stay and rest.
After entering this village, Su Cheng’s brows have been kept tightly closed, and have not been loosened.
It is not difficult to tell from the outside—this village is quite a wealthy village.
The houses are solid wooden houses, the roads are clean and tidy, and the villagers are also wearing decent and neat clothes.
It’s just that—some scene in this village is exactly the same as the scene seen in the paddy fields just now.
That is-there is not a single figure of a young man…
Only middle-aged and old people and children shuttled through the village.
Just as Su Cheng parked the carriage in an open place designated by the villagers, an elderly man with white beard and hair and about 60 years old, with a gentle smile, greeted Su Cheng and others.
“Travelers, welcome to Owo Village. I am the head of Owo Village-Kefu Mysore.”
“Good afternoon, Your Excellency, the village chief.” Su Cheng responded to Kefu with a smile, “Thanks to your village for providing us with a place to stay.”
“It’s just a small matter. You don’t have to thank us so much.” Koff smiled and waved his hand. “We are very happy that you can come to our village. We haven’t seen young people in a while.”
“Having young people like you patronize our village can also make the atmosphere in our village more vibrant.”
Hearing these words from Kefu, Su Cheng couldn’t help but pursed his lips.
“…Your Excellency, I have a question for you.”
“Well, you can ask me as much as you want, and I will know everything I can say and say everything I can answer.”
Seeing that the village chief had said so, Su Cheng was no longer polite, and asked the village chief directly:
“Village chief, in your village… why are there no young people?”
After hearing this question from Su Cheng, the smile on the village head’s face suddenly froze.
Just when Su Cheng began to blame himself for saying something wrong, the village chief slowly put away the smile on his face, and then sighed lightly.
“…And why…not because the country has been fighting all these years…”
“About half a year ago, all the young and strong laborers in our village ~ www.mtlnovel.com~ were taken away by the people of the country, regardless of whether they were men or women.”
“It seems that they were all taken to the east to transport supplies.”
“It is said that the war is over, but I don’t know when these children will come back…”
“I just hope that the children who were dragged away by the country can come back alive in peace…”
After that, the village chief let out a long sigh again.
“Is being dragged to transport supplies?!” Su Cheng widened his eyes and exclaimed, “Your Excellency, this is Soma County, right?”
“Yes.”
“Soma County is the richest county in the south of our country, right?”
“Is it the richest…I don’t know if it’s the richest county in the south of the country, but our Soma county is indeed relatively rich compared with other neighboring counties.”
“Even the wealthiest villagers in Soma County have been dragged to the battlefield to transport supplies?” Su Cheng’s face was full of shock.
“Yes…” Kefu’s face was filled with a wry smile, “The city that governs our village is Cannes not far from here.”
“At the beginning of the war with the Frankish Empire, the city lord of Cannes specially came to the villages under his jurisdiction and told us: The country’s current requisition of labor is completely sufficient, so we don’t have to worry about the young and middle-aged people in the village. Being dragged to the battlefield to transport supplies, let us continue to live with peace of mind.”
“However… only half a year later, the city lord suddenly told us-the country’s requisitioned civil servants are not enough, and the young and middle-aged in our village have to be requisitioned on the battlefield…”
“Although we don’t want to, there is nothing we can do about it…”
“After all, this is the order of the country, how can we defy the order of the country… Oh… **** war… I hope this is the last time the young and middle-aged in our village have been conscripted on the battlefield…”
