Warlords: I just made a little fortune, but I didn’t build a country.

Chapter 488 Liu An Returns Home

After Qin Lin finished the press conference, the whole country was shocked because their Great Qin Empire won a phased victory at a very small cost, annihilated more than 700 million soldiers of the enemy alliance army, and safeguarded the security of the north.

The country achieved a phased victory and the people made a lot of money, so retaliatory consumption appeared, eating, drinking, and having fun, and sports cars began to be sold nationwide. High-end hotels, large amusement parks, etc. began to appear all over the Qin Empire.

......

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye half a year had passed, and the weather changed from hot to cold winter.

Jinyuan Town is a big town at the junction of the north and the south. As the cold winter is coming, everyone is staying at home to watch TV. Yes, they are watching TV, although most of them are black and white, but TV has become popular in the town and in the countryside.

"I said."

An old man in his sixties said to the woman next to him, "This grain is valuable. Our family only has ten acres of land, and the annual output is more than 6,000 kilograms, which we sell for more than one thousand yuan. I think we can add another ten acres next year to save some money for Xiaodong to marry her."

"I can see it."

The woman also nodded and said, "Now whether it's raising chickens, ducks, or cattle, as long as it's a breeding industry or a planting industry, you can make money. I think it would be better to let Xiao An come down from the army, so that we don't have to worry every day."

"What are you talking about?"

When the old man heard this, he shouted fiercely, "Don't let Xiao An hear you. Xiao An will be back soon. It is an honor to be a soldier and defend the country. You are just a woman with a lot of knowledge and a soft heart."

After the old man said a few words, the woman stopped talking.

As a mother, her son has been serving in the army for more than ten years, and sometimes she doesn't see him once a year. She really doesn't want her son to be a soldier anymore, but she knows that her son likes to be a soldier and defend his country. But as a mother, how can she watch her son fight with death in a sea of ​​blood and corpses?

"Clap clap clap."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, firecrackers were heard in the town.

"It must be Xiao An. Xiao An is back," the old man and the woman immediately stood up from their chairs, dragging a young man who had just reached adulthood and a middle-aged woman out of the two-story villa and heading straight for the town.

At the head of the town, the scene was very lively, with dozens of luxury cars and many middle-aged people in Zhongshan suits. These people were obviously local officials, with the national emblem hanging on their chests.

"Old Liu, welcome back home."

"County Magistrate Chen," Liu An looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and thanked him again, "When I was fighting in the army, my wife was pregnant and was targeted by Director Wang of the town at that time. It was almost! Thanks to County Magistrate Chen for helping me at that time, otherwise my wife and children would have been killed long ago."

"The duty lies."

Chen Weimin said to Liu An, "I am now the head of the county government because of that incident, and even more so because of you. So, there is no need to say thank you. You soldiers are fighting the enemy on the front line, and your families should be protected by us."

"An'er."

At this time, an old couple who ran from the center of the town, a young boy, and a middle-aged woman all appeared at the town head. When they saw the middle-aged man in military uniform, they couldn't help but burst into tears, because they had not seen their son for three or four years.

"Father, mother."

Seeing his gray-haired father and parents, Liu An wanted to kneel down and kowtow, but when he remembered that he was wearing a military uniform, he took two steps forward, hugged his parents and shouted, "You are an unfilial son, an unfilial son!"

"An'er!"

Finally unable to hold back, the old woman burst into tears.

"Liu'er."

Liu An looked at his wife who was crying silently beside him, and immediately hugged Liu Mei tightly and shouted, "Thank you for your hard work over the years. Thank you for your hard work."

"Little guy, you've grown so tall."

Looking at the scene of Liu An's family reunion, the reporter took a few photos and left. The people in the town also said hello and left, as did the people in the county, because everyone knew that it was not right to disturb a family reunion at this time.

"The county magistrate."

After Chen Weimin said hello to Liu An, he left in a special car. The secretary asked Chen Weimin curiously, "What position does Liu An hold in the army? Why are there reporters here? Even the county magistrate has to come here in person?"

"reporter?"

Chen Weimin was also happy, so he added, "Reporters are nothing, and neither am I. The real big shots will appear later. Not to mention me, the city government and the provincial government will come later. What positions do you think they will hold?"

"this?"

The secretary was also shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect that even the provincial government would come!

"I don't know what position it is," Chen Weimin said, "Several years ago, Liu An was the brigade commander of a certain group army with the rank of brigadier general. Now that several years have passed, he should be at least a major general!"

"Major General???"

Knowing that Liu An might be a major general, the secretary understood the scene just now and even felt that it was a little small. When the major general returned home, at least there should be gongs and drums, and the whole town and county should line the streets to welcome him.

Liu An, who was reuniting with his family at home, didn't know about this. If he knew, he would just smile and say nothing. After the Sakura War, the military calculated that Liu An had won 3 individual first-class merits, 5 collective first-class merits, 9 individual second-class merits, 11 collective second-class merits, 12 individual third-class merits, and 19 collective third-class merits.

Moreover, during the Sakura Wars, he was the single person who killed the most generals from the Oriental country, beheading thirty-seven generals on his own, which was three more than the record of the special forces.

With these merits, Liu An was promoted to major general and served as the commander of the heavy armored combined brigade. Later, he made many contributions in the Allied War and was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general and served as the deputy commander of the army group.

"Son, how long do you plan to stay this time?"

Looking at his mother who was over 60 years old, Liu An really didn't want to tell the news in his heart now, but responded, "One and a half months, one and a half months of vacation."

When they heard that there was a month's vacation, the old lady, Liu Mei, and Liu An's son Liu Dongcheng were all very happy.

"Father, mother, thank you for your hard work over the years."

Liu An said with guilt, "Over the years, my military pay has been given to the brothers who died in the war to subsidize their families. I only took a small amount of money home to subsidize you two and Mei'er to support this family. I feel guilty about you."

"This is the money I saved in the past year and a half," Liu An said, pulling out a passbook. "The pensions for my brothers are very generous. Most of the bonuses and military pay I received for my meritorious service over the years have been used to subsidize my brothers. Now that their families have sufficient financial security, it's time for me to plan for myself."

"Here are 10 yuan. I'll give it to you two for safekeeping. It will be your retirement money." After saying that, Liu An stuffed the money into the hands of the two elders without waiting for them to refuse.

Then, Liu An took out a passbook and handed it to his wife Liu Mei, saying, "There are 25 yuan in it. Take it. My military salary will be paid into this passbook in the future. There will be yuan every month. If I fight on the front line, there will be yuan. With miscellaneous subsidies, it will not be less than yuan."

"An, you!"
