Chapter 352 Return

There were some tents set up in the camp, and a lot of supplies were piled up in the open space. There were also several rows of pack trucks parked outside the camp. There were many people carrying supplies from the ship to the trailers, and people were shouting about the cow's cry. It was a lively scene.

It turns out that after the Sava River area settled down, the exchanges between the two regions increased. The people in the Sava River area were very interested in the daily necessities provided by the Kupa River. However, due to road construction, the tribes had to pay attention to waterway transportation. So a dock was built here, and the transportation team was stationed... As a result, not only the goods shipped from Sradia were transferred here, but the materials transported from Ofidilia to Todlido were also accumulated here. It turned out that here Gradually it became a material distribution center.

Selicis led the team and followed a transport team into the dense forest.

Due to the increased traffic between the Kupa River and the Sava River area, the tribe asked the Foreign Auxiliary Management Department to deploy some foreign residents to cut down trees on both sides of the dense forest road in January and February of the beginning of the year, widen the road, fill in potholes, and compact the roads. The roadbed has greatly improved road conditions and laid the foundation for future highway construction.

The repaired forest road was indeed much easier to walk, but as time went by and the people walking on it were all pack trucks loaded with goods, the dirt road became overwhelmed and became bumpy again.

Fortunately, Selicis followed him, and he led the prisoners to step forward to help, pushing out the cart whose wheels were stuck in the mud...

Yesterday, the prisoners who learned from Celysis that good changes had indeed taken place in their hometown were very positive, which made the leader of the transport team very grateful, insisting that prisoners with disabled legs and difficulty in walking be allowed to sit on the pack carriers. Cars are not allowed.

The two sides helped each other, and the marching speed was naturally not slow. They arrived at Linkou Village in the afternoon. It had not changed much, except that it was renamed Linkou Checkpoint by the tribe.

The camp not far from it has undergone great changes. Not only has the Nicks Hotel been renovated, but a market has also been set up inside so that people in nearby villages that are far away from the city of Ofidilia can buy their own food nearby. required goods. Listening to the hustle and bustle coming from the camp, you can imagine the excitement in the market.

However, considering that his compatriots were eager to return home, Selicis was not prepared to stay in this camp for too long and continued eastward with the prisoners. The transport team only sent one-third of the pack cars into the camp, because the market in Ofidilia also urgently needed more goods.

The prisoners set foot on the Sava River plain. The air here is exceptionally fresh, the river breeze is very gentle, and the fields of wheat are constantly rising and falling, making rustling sounds, as if smiling at them and saying: "Welcome home..."

Many people's eyes suddenly turned red, and some couldn't help but shout loudly.

Selicis immediately reminded them loudly: Don’t forget what they promised him last night, don’t disturb the people here, don’t leave the team, and don’t violate discipline at the last moment and cause yourself to be punished and be sent back again. Along the Kupa River, no longer able to reunite with my family...

Under Selicis' warning, the prisoners tried their best to suppress the excitement in their hearts, but they could not restrain their eyes from greedily staring at every villager patrolling the wheat field.

But soon, they felt panic, because groups of Nix people holding shields, daggers on their waists, and armors appeared in the fields. They walked out of various villages and headed towards the road where the prisoners were. The road is coming...

The prisoners were nervous because of the shadow of the tragic defeat.

"Uncle Celysis, are they... are they going to conduct military training?" Telysis' voice was trembling when he spoke. He had seen the young tribesmen in those towns with his own eyes when they were building roads along the Kupa River. The people were summoned to conduct military training for several days during their leisure time.

"Don't worry, they are going to Ofidilia!" Selicis said loudly to the prisoners: "Some time ago, the Abodes invaded our northern territory. This should be the tribe conducting military operations. Mobilize and form an army to drive the Yabods out!”

"The Yabods are here again!" someone exclaimed, still fresh in his memory of the Jabods' invasion a few years ago.

Some people were indifferent: "What are you afraid of? Andres was able to lead us to defeat the Yabods back then. The Nix army, which is more powerful than us, can naturally defeat the Yabods more easily!"

These words made the prisoners feel reassured, but soon someone said: "But I heard that the territory to the north was not occupied by the Nix tribe, and our original tribes still lived there. If the Nix army goes north to fight with them, When the Yabods fought, didn’t they also invade the territories of those tribes in the north?——"

"Hahaha..." The person in charge of the transport team heading to Ofidilia with Selicis' team couldn't help but laugh: "We Nix and Segostica are enemies. This blockbuster The land has been occupied by us, so it is normal for us to send troops to occupy the territory in the north. In fact, the leader should have done this long ago, so that the people of Segostika in the north would suffer less. "

"Two days ago, the stronghold of leader Iligus was captured by the Abodes (the leaders of the Segostika tribe in the north were headed by Iliges, who was the mainstay of the defense against the Arpods). I heard that he was dead. Few people.”

Selicis then said loudly: "Now many tribesmen have fled here from the north, and the tribe has taken them in. They also petitioned the tribe, hoping to send troops to save their compatriots... Now the tribe is conducting military operations Mobilization also responded to their demands.

Captain Xibarita is right (captain of the transport team). If the tribesmen in the north had joined the tribe when it occupied this place, they would not have suffered today's hardships, and they would have lived a peaceful life like us. "

Selisis showed a look of regret. He has been working in the Foreign Auxiliary Civilian Management Department of Xizhai for the past few months. He can get news that ordinary tribesmen cannot get, and what he said is all true. However, he also understands that the petition of the tribesmen fleeing in the north is not the main reason for the tribe to send troops at this time. However, in order to prevent these captives from resentment against the tribe and live an honest life after returning home, he tried his best to say good things about the Nix tribe.

The captives thought of their own experiences and fell silent.

In the evening, Selisis The team and transport team finally arrived at the West Village of Ophidalia. After strict inspection by the city guards, they were allowed to enter.

Because it was early summer, although it was already evening, the sky was still bright. Many foreign rich people were still strolling in the village after dinner, talking and laughing with a relaxed look. The patrol team responsible for maintaining public order did not interfere. This situation was very different from the situation half a year ago when foreign auxiliary people had to stay in the residential courtyard after returning from work, making the entire West Village deserted at dusk.

These foreign auxiliary people As soon as they saw Selisis, they all took the initiative to greet him.

Selisis had some reputation in the Segestica tribe. In the past six months, he had led many teams in the Foreign Auxiliary Civilian Administration Department, enlightened many foreign auxiliary civilians, and helped solve the difficulties of some compatriots. Therefore, many foreign auxiliary civilians trusted him and were willing to work under him.

However, Selisis did not want to talk to them at this time. He hurriedly rushed to the headquarters of the Foreign Auxiliary Civilian Administration Department with the captives, found his colleagues on duty, handed over the documents, and asked them to check them. The captives brought back, and then the colleague deleted the names of these captives from the list (after they were brought back from the Ardi tribe, they were under the jurisdiction of the Foreign Auxiliary Management Department because they had not officially joined the tribe), and issued a certificate and stamped it.

Seeing Selysis take the documents and hurried out, the colleague couldn't help but say: "Selysis, you don't have to be so anxious. I'm afraid the Ministry of Agriculture is closed at this time. It's better to take them to rest first. It won't be too late to take them to the Ministry of Agriculture tomorrow."

"I have to go and see them first." Selysis replied: "I just want to send them all home as soon as possible, so that they are happy and I can rest assured sooner."

"You are such a worrying person." The colleague sighed: "Okay, take them there quickly, I will help you arrange food and accommodation for them. "

Selisis thanked them repeatedly and rushed to the East Village with the captives.

At the bridgehead leading to the East Village, they were once again checked by the guards guarding the bridge and finally passed.

Although it was the second time to step on the wooden bridge, the captives stood on this longer and larger wooden bridge and looked down. The familiar Sava River meandered under their feet, and the endless waves rolled, making a low and powerful roar... This gave them a completely different shock.

Entering the East Village and rushing to the courtyard of the Ministry of Agriculture, the gate was wide open, and the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture were still busy. Selisis breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the war was about to begin, several important departments of the Nix tribe began to operate day and night, and Selisis came at the right time.

Since he had been here many times, he was responsible for management The agricultural officials who were preparing to become members of the tribe were familiar with him. They did not shirk their responsibilities or complain. After checking the documents, they called their men to register each captive as a member of the tribe. They also had to find the files of the captives' families and change the heads of households... The whole process took time. By the time everything was done, it was already dark.

During this period, Selysis also explained to the patrol team, and the patrol team finally "escorted" the captives back to their temporary residence in the West Village with torches.

The only procedure left for the captives to return home was to take the oath at the temple.

Compared with last year, they no longer needed to rush to the mountains near the Linkou Post, because a Danu Temple was also built in the East Village of Ophidiliya, which was much more convenient.
