章 804: Coming Home (Part III)

Countless people in Chang'an welcomed them, waving their hands and smiling warmly.

This was the first rotation since the war had begun. They were all rearranged back to various counties after withdrawing from the front line. Only a few could return to Chang'an.

The Tang Empire had displayed a perfect administration and amazing efficiency in the war. Since the conscription started, hundreds of thousands of former veterans had joined the front line and all kinds of resources had been delivered to every battle, which had given the Empire a break.
