Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it

Chapter 383 I have never seen such a poor military camp

Master Bai nodded vigorously, his eyes slightly red, and said, "Huo Jun, it really is you! Why are you here?"

Huo Jun rushed over and hugged Uncle Bai tightly, his voice choked with sobs:

"Uncle Bai, I thought you and Aunt Bai were dead! I've been so worried these days!

I can’t sleep every day, always wondering what’s going on with you guys…”

As she spoke, tears could no longer be controlled and rolled down her cheeks, soaking Master Bai's shoulders.

Master Bai patted Huo Jun's back gently, his eyes full of heartache, and murmured, "My dear boy, how come you have lost so much weight? You must have suffered a lot in these years."

Huo Jun sobbed, raised his hand and wiped his tears carelessly, and said anxiously: "Uncle, hurry up, let's go sit in the tent. It's windy outside. Please tell me slowly what happened over the years."

Jiang Lin looked at him with a face full of grievance and said, "Uncle Bai, save me... Wuuwuwu... It hurts so much..."

Master Bai patted his butt gently and said, "You deserve it! If you do something wrong, you must be punished. If you hadn't brought Liu Yanshi here today, I wouldn't have come here."

Jiang Lin cried out, "Who is Liu Yanshi?"

He saw a little girl in front of him looking at him and smiling at him: "Hey..."

Jiang Lin cried even harder: "Are you going to bully me too?"

Lin Wanwan was speechless. Master Bai quickly picked her up and said, "Hey! Huo Jun, forget it! Just let this kid go!"

Huo Jun hummed and said, "I spared you today for Uncle Bai's sake. If you do something like this again next time, I won't let you go."

"I know, I know……"

Huo Jun invited the person into the tent and was stunned when he saw Zhao Qiaoniang: "You...you are Zhao Qiaoniang?"

Zhao Qiaoniang smiled faintly at him and said, "Yes! General Huo, we meet again."

Mrs. Bai asked, "How do you two know each other?"

When Huo Jun talked about Zhao Qiaoniang, a blush instantly appeared on his face. The redness quickly spread from his cheeks to his ears, and even his neck turned slightly red.

His eyes unconsciously looked at the ground, and his toes gently rubbed the ground under his feet.

Huo Jun sighed slightly, his voice still filled with the emotion of surviving a disaster:

"Last time, we were tricked and taken into the mountains without knowing what was happening.

When we got there, we found out that we were forced to work in a coal mine. It was dark and stuffy, and the conditions were terrible.

The supervisor also had a whip and would beat anyone who disobeyed.

We struggle on the brink of life and death every day, unable to eat a full meal or get a good night's sleep.

If it weren't for Zhao Qiaoniang, many of us brothers would have died."

Jiang Lin next to him suddenly shouted:

"I remember now, it really was you. Oh! Thank you so much for saving our lives!

If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we wouldn't have survived this winter."

They brought back a lot of coal that time, so why were they tricked into mining?

It is because their army has no money. Logically, the country should give them food and money every month.

But Huo Jun hasn't received a grain of rice or a copper coin for more than a year.

Master Bai's eyes widened in disbelief, his lips trembling slightly. "How on earth did you manage to survive? You have an army of over 50,000!"

Jiang Lin sighed heavily:

"That's right! These days are so hard to endure.

Last winter, if it weren't for those few carts of coal, more than 50,000 of us would have frozen to death in this icy and snowy place."

“In the winter, everyone was so cold that they had to huddle in a corner and keep each other warm.

Look at our clothes, they are all so thin." He tugged at his tattered shirt.

Master Bai's hands trembled as he gently touched the soldiers' thin, worn clothes. A surge of rage flared up in his heart, shaking him with anger. "What on earth do you kids want? They bully you like this, and you just let them do whatever they want?"

Huo Jun slowly lowered his head, choking a little:

"I actually don't know what to do now. We are running out of food again, and the soldiers are hungry every day.

We sold all the weapons that could be sold just to get some food to survive.

Look around our army, where are the valuable things?"

Lin Wanwan sat on the pacifier and wandered around the tent.

Wherever she went, the soldiers cast curious glances at her. Many small animals followed her, and they protected Lin Wanwan closely.

Lin Wanwan shook her head and looked around the military camp, unable to help but gasp in amazement:

"I've never seen such a poor military camp. How can this be called a military camp?

It's just a run-down refugee camp, bah! There are better shelters than this."

She looked into the tent. Apart from a few broken tables placed crookedly there, the rest of the tent was basically empty, and the beds were extremely shabby.

It was just a few worn wooden boards put together, covered with a thin straw mat with several holes in it. If you touched it casually, straw debris would fall down.

There were also some weapons with missing parts and rusted in the corner, which showed that they had not been used for a long time.

Turning to the back of the military camp, Lin Wanwan was immediately shocked by the scene before her.

There were many people lying on the ground in all directions. They were thin and their faces were sallow. Some of them had their eyes closed and their brows furrowed, as if they were enduring great pain.

Some people half-opened their eyes listlessly, their gazes empty and lifeless.

Milk tea followed behind Lin Wanwan and couldn't help shaking her head: "Haha... so pitiful... so pitiful..."

A haggard-looking soldier came quickly, waving his hand and saying loudly:

"How did you two get here? Get out of here now!

The people here are either starving or sick. We don't have money to hire a doctor, and we don't have enough medicine. The disease is very serious, don't let yourself be infected!"

Lin Wanwan sighed, sat down with the pacifier and went back to find Mrs. Bai.

There is a seat on the pacifier, so Lin Wanwan can sit on it.

Normally, an ordinary tiger wouldn't be willing to do that. Just kidding, it's the king of the forest. But Pacifier was very happy and took Lin Wanwan for runs around every day.

Lin Wanwan directly pulled Madam Bai, and Madam Bai picked her up and asked, "What's wrong, Wanwan? Where are you going?"

She and Zhao Qiaoniang followed Lin Wanwan to the back of the military camp. Madam Bai looked at the soldiers and her expression changed: "Who are these people?"

A little soldier wiped his tears and said:

“We had no food in the barracks, so we just had to endure hardship.

Many people were injured during the last battle with the Xiongnu, and they have no medicine, so they can only endure like this."

Madam Bai frowned and asked, "Where is the military doctor in your camp?"
