His Excellency the Governor shook his head: "You, you are still not ready to give up the present day of wind and rain. It is true that the www.biquge.info power of the pen "Fun" Pavilion can be exchanged for a higher status in the future, but don't forget that once you are the first warlord to secede a province, especially if this warlord is not a royal family or noble, it is dazzling enough to attract everyone's attention. At this time, such a prominent power leader cannot easily take refuge in others. ”

"Can't easily take refuge in people? Father, why is this so strange? "The young man was puzzled.

"Not to mention whether his subordinates are willing to take refuge in others for their own glory and wealth, just say that if you are the one in the imperial capital, and the warlord who divides the entire province suddenly takes refuge, what will you think?" His Excellency the Governor asked.

The young man was stunned for a moment, but he quickly said: "Nothing to be courteous, either cheap or stealing, it must be welcomed on the surface, but it is very vigilant behind the scenes." But we can resist it, and when we are evenly matched, we can just take refuge in the past? ”

His Excellency the Governor nodded: "The words are good, but you don't understand the mentality of the successor to the throne, especially now that the princes are independent, and the succession emperor with fierce competition for the throne, because they are not the founding kings, what they need is a stern iron fist and high prestige, and they will never compromise once the war starts, so don't want to take refuge in an even match, for the sake of face, people will not accept it." ”

"Uh, so we're really just going to have to get a handful and leave?" The young man frowned and said, he was really reluctant to be in such a position as he was now and doing whatever he wanted.

His Excellency the Governor sighed: "Alas, in fact, those of us who did not have the emperor to die and the military status was destroyed, reported the military registration information as soon as possible, and at the same time did not attach themselves to the future emperor, the end result was either to flee to other countries or to be destroyed, there is no other choice." ”

"Attached to the future emperor? How can we know which prince will win at this time! Isn't that what a strong man does? The young man said angrily.

"There is no way to do this, those who compete for the throne like this can only pray that they are in the right position, otherwise they can only wait for destruction. And we are just small characters who came out to show at the beginning, and the protagonist is not something we can play. The Governor said helplessly.

was said to be completely lost, and the young man was still a little unwilling to say: "Father, according to that, we can only go abroad to become rich?" But we're gone, what about the soldiers under our command? Disbanded? ”

"Hehe, rich people are also very good, especially in the Freedom League, where money is paramount, as long as there is money, we can live well there. As for the soldiers? Hehe, you can exchange them for a sum of money when you leave. The Governor laughed.

"Sold to the most powerful province in the future?" The young man asked smartly.

The governor said, "It doesn't have to be the biggest, but whoever gives the most money will give it to whomever it wants." Of course, there is no need to think about this at this time, after all, we are the most powerful now, and it will be a long time before a warlord can threaten us, and we can still make money for a long time. Do you know why we didn't leave immediately, but had to wait until such a warlord appeared? ”

The young man nodded and said, "The child understands that we can only leave safely when a warlord who can replace us to attract the attention of the world appears." ”

"Well, that's good, since we don't have that ability or ambition, then we have to learn to keep a low profile. Family inheritance is more important than anything else. The Governor nodded in satisfaction.

Although the young man was not very happy to admit that he did not have that ability, he still recognized the family inheritance that his father said, so he nodded obediently.

In a forest, several men dressed in tight black clothes were quickly shuttling through the forest.

It is said that the scouts are the smartest and strongest soldiers in the army, and this is indeed true, they are the elite scouts in the Lu family's army. Their mission was to find out the Third Fleet's disposition, and they could appear on the side of the Third Fleet by walking through the forest.

The exit of the forest can already be seen, and several scouts have subconsciously slowed down and become vigilant, no one dares to guarantee that there is no one guarding outside the forest, and there is no big mistake in being careful.

But just as they stopped to discuss something, the sword flashed, and the scouts fell silently.

Next to their corpses, two men in tight black clothes appeared with their heads covered and only a pair of cold eyes. One on the side silently withdrew the narrow blade that was only arm length into the knife sleeve of his arm, while the other kicked the corpse and said disdainfully: "I don't know whether you are alive or dead, and you dare to come to spy on the intelligence of the Lord's army?" When our secret guards don't exist, huh? ”

The secret guard, who was like no one else, frowned, and said coldly: "There is so much nonsense, no wonder you are still an eighth-rank secret guard after being out of the secret camp for so long." If you want to be upgraded, you can simply switch to internal guarding. As he spoke, he crouched down and searched the body.

The body of the talkative guard shook as if he had been hit hard, and he squatted down, and wailed in a low voice while examining the corpse: "It's unreasonable, I went out of the secret camp at the same time as you, and how can I fight with a fifth-rank secret guard in my ability, why can I only stay at the level of an eighth-rank secret guard just because I am verbose?" And you jumped to the rank of a fifth-class secret guard? I'm not convinced! ”

"If you don't accept it, go to the chief to talk about it, or show your ability directly in front of the Lord, and it's not impossible to ascend to the sky in one step." The other secret guard said without raising his head.

"Alas, who doesn't want the opportunity to show their abilities in front of the Lord, but there is no such opportunity, the Lord is surrounded by those first-class secret guards, where can we get these little shrimps." The secret guard said helplessly.

At this moment, two petite guards who looked like women appeared in front of the two of them, and the two of them saluted the fifth-class guard: "Team leader, there are no other enemies around. ”

The fifth-class guard stood up and nodded, and with a whistle, the sound of swift and slight footsteps was heard in the forest. And the eighth-class secret guard was close to the two female secret guards: "How is it?" It's okay to do the first mission, right? If you have any trouble, just tell me, why am I also a senior, and it is right to help the juniors. ”

Those two female guards were so confused by this trick that they didn't know what to do, and being taciturn and listening more and talking less was the root of the secret guards, why did this senior talk so much?

The fifth-rank secret guard sneered: "Don't underestimate them, they are already ninth-rank secret guards as soon as they leave the secret camp, I believe it won't be long before you have to salute them." Okay, now the whole group fans into this forest, and once you spot an enemy scout, shoot and kill! ”

"Yes." Dozens of very soft voices came from all over the forest.

The eighth-rank secret guard, who originally wanted to say something, heard the team leader's words, and saluted like the two female secret guards, and then disappeared into the forest in an instant.

Somewhere in the plains, more than a dozen cavalry scouts of the Lu family were swaggering, although they were also scouts, but their abilities were very different from those scouts who infiltrated the enemy's territory.

Their biggest function is to apologize and find out the enemy's situation in minutes, and then it is to report and transmit information, if you really want to say, these cavalry are the real scouts, and those who infiltrate the enemy territory are already considered spies.

Although they have the task of finding out the enemy's situation, these cavalry scouts don't take it to heart, they already know that the enemy army is in front, about 10,000 people, according to their own level, what else needs to be explored after knowing this information? As long as you see the enemy, turn around and run back to report and finish the mission.

And his large army is more than ten kilometers behind him, even if the other party sends cavalry, he can return safely, in this case, why be so nervous?

Just when these dozen or so cavalrymen were wandering, a row of black shadows appeared in front of them, and when they looked closely, it turned out to be nearly ten standard imperial cavalry scouts.

Except for the imperial capital and some loyal and feverish magnates, no army's army still wears the original imperial uniform, and even if they don't have the time and money to change their clothes, they will change the details of their clothes slightly to make a difference. It can be said that when the warlord army sees the army in the imperial uniform, there is no need to think about it, it is definitely the enemy.

The cavalry was not really soft, and immediately made a defensive move, and a cavalryman asked the cavalry at the head of the team: "Captain, we have found the enemy's traces, shall we go back and report it?" ”

The captain at the head of the team said with a serious face: "What do you report?" This is the scout of the other side, we haven't seen the enemy's large army yet, how can we go back? ”

Speaking of this, the captain suddenly smiled and said, "Besides, don't forget, there are less than ten people on the other side, and this is a great opportunity to increase your merits!" ”

Hearing this, several cavalrymen immediately changed, and it took a while before they showed a reluctant smile in response. Aren't they afraid that they won't be able to win, why is there less than ten people on the other side, but there are fifteen on their side, and they can't win? Just buy a piece of tofu and hit it headlong and forget it.

They are angry that they are going to work hard again in vain, don't they know what kind of virtue this captain is? Relying on the slightest blood relationship with the Lu family, swallowing the power column of his subordinates is equivalent to instinct.

But although he is reluctant to do day labor, he can't help it, who calls someone the captain and doesn't obey the military order, but his whole family is unlucky. They had no choice but to take up their bows and arrows, and the scout cavalry was not interested in hand-to-hand combat.
