Volume 2: The Dragons Present Chapter 187 Walking in the Rain
() "Shhhh Be quiet, why do you need to be so loud about a secret operation, are you going to let the world know about it? Zhou Qi glared at Long He, who looked embarrassed, angrily, and then looked at everyone present, obviously ready to listen to everyone's opinions!
"My lord! A certain family thinks that this expedition to Lujiang County is so prosperous, and those warlords and heroes in Yangzhou have sent a lot of meticulous work, and they have already sent back our itinerary, if you lead a small number of people to leave, I am afraid..."Chen Gong touched the goatee on his chin, and a trace of light flashed in his eyes from time to time, although he did not finish speaking, as long as he was not a fool, he could hear the meaning of his words!
Zhou Qi's way of nature, what Chen Gong said is not unreasonable, but in order to be able to take Lujiang County without spending a single soldier, even if it is Longtan Tiger's Den, he will personally take risks, not to mention that it has been more than half a year now, although Jingzhou has his father Zhou Yi in charge, but it is still indispensable to the surrounding heroes, the longer the time, the more variables, so I made up my mind to take a risk!
As a strategist, Chen Gong is naturally good at observing words and feelings, and looking at Zhou Qi's face with the rest of his eyes, although his face is expressionless, it is not difficult to see that there is a determined light in his eyes from time to time, and he knows in his heart that it is impossible for the lord to change his mind by saying anything, so he has to silently retreat to the side and pretend not to say anything.
"My lord! If you are going to go to the Taishou Mansion of Lujiang County, the last general is willing to go with you! Silent for a while, Luo Cheng saw that no one came out to speak, and resolutely took a step forward, his hands clenched into fists, and a pair of eyes like eagles and falcons twitched from time to time, as if he could see through people's hearts.
Wen Chou, as Zhou Qi's number one follower, saw that Luo Cheng took the first step and asked to go with the lord, where can he be willing to lag behind, he reached out and touched the big bald head, and walked out with a grin, "Lord, a certain family also wants to go to the Taishou Mansion of Lujiang County with you!" ”
Zhou Qi saw Wen Chou, who was like a little girl, and saw the shyness of the boy he had been in love with for a long time, which shocked everyone present, even if he had super endurance, he almost vomited everything he ate yesterday.
"Wen Chou, you are serious, if this is the case again, Lao Tzu will send you back to Jingzhou to defend the city!"
"Ahh Don't want it, don't you want me to do this, can you send me back to Jingzhou! As soon as Wen Chou heard that he had returned to Jingzhou to defend the city, as a militant, Wen Chou didn't mean that he wanted his life, so he immediately pleaded with Zhou Qi!
"That's it! This time, you kid don't want to go to the Taishou Mansion of Lujiang County with me! Before Zhou Qi's words were finished, Wen Chou in front of him looked at each other with a bitter face and tears in his eyes, if he hadn't been warned by the lord once, I'm afraid he would have hugged Zhou Qi's thigh and cried bitterly at this moment!
"If you go with a certain family, those who secretly follow us and others, don't they all know that a certain family is not here, so you can only sacrifice your energy to attract them, and you also have a very important thing to do with Brother Long and protect the peace of your brother Zhou Yu!" Stretched out his hand and patted Wen Chou's heavy shoulder, and said earnestly.
Wen Chou, like a frosted eggplant, suddenly wilted, and nodded as if he had agreed to the lord's order.
Zhou Qi saw that everyone had no objections, even if
It was his brother who was most worried, Zhou Yu didn't stop it, and he was secretly relieved in his heart, and looked up at the sunset on the horizon, and a hint of discoloration flashed in his eyes: "Send a team of scouts to check a high place as a camp for tonight!" ”
Chen Gong and the others looked at the sky with some puzzlement, although there was some sunset, but it would be dark for a while, why did the lord camp so early today, but everyone did not ask, and after a while, a team of scouts rode high-headed horses to explore around.
In the secret, those Yangzhou Haoqiang sent to see the team of scouts dispatched, and suddenly one by one like a mouse seeing a cat had to carefully hide themselves in the dark, for fear that they would accidentally complete the task of the lord is to explain the life of the young man here!
As time passed, the sunset on the horizon became less and less, and the scouts sent out to see the sun setting into the horizon also returned.
"Report! There is a hill one mile in front of the lord, and there is a water source nearby, should we go there? A scout rode his horse and galloped in front of Zhou Qi and his party, turned over and dismounted, and the action was in one go, without the slightest drag, with both hands clenched into fists, kneeling down on one knee and asking in a deep voice.
Zhou Qi nodded when he heard this, and then ordered to the dragon on the side, "The army is open, be sure to arrive there before dark and set up camp!" ”
The army moved out again, led by the scout towards its destination.
After Zhou Qi and his party left, several groups of black-clothed people came to the place where they were originally located, looking at the direction where the large army was leaving, and the fierce light flashed in their eyes, and then disappeared into the darkness again.
"My lord, why are we in such a hurry to set up camp on high ground?" Wen Chou rode the wind chasing the wind and guarded Zhou Qi's frame, and said to the lord who was sleeping inside.
When Zhou Qi heard this, his eyelids were slightly raised, and a sound like popping beans suddenly came from his body, and he saw that the other party's whole person was like a lion who had woken up, and a pair of eyes as black as ink shot out a fine light, like a fairy sword, which made people dare not look directly.
When Yan Xueqing saw her husband like this, she was a little stupid for a while, and she didn't know how long it took to come back to her senses.
Chen Gong couldn't help but feel funny when he saw that Zhou Qi didn't pay attention to Wen Chou, originally Wen Chou was a little unhappy because he didn't go to Lujiang County with his lord Zhou Qi, but now when he saw that Mr. Chen Gong actually made fun of himself, he was suddenly annoyed and glared at the other party, turned his head to the side, and didn't want to look at Chen Gong anymore.
As a strategist, Chen Gong is naturally good at observing words and feelings, and he already knew the problem the moment Wen Chou glared at him, and arched his hand towards the other party, "General Wen Chou, a certain family is not making fun of you, if you feel that a certain family is not sincere enough, how about I can answer your question for you?" ”
"Really?" Wen Chou was originally angry, but when he heard that Chen Gong was willing to tell him, he immediately turned his head around: "Mr. Gongtai, do you know why?" ”
"Haha! Of course! Chen Gong nodded undeniably
"Then you're going to say it, but I'm in a hurry!" Wen Chou stretched out his hand and scratched his bald head, looking at Chen Gong with an eager look, hoping that the other party could tell him.
"General, do you remember the strategy we used to subdue the mountain thieves in Xinjian?"
Of course I remember, it wasn't the heavy rain that flooded the other party's cottage..."Wen Chou answered without thinking about it, and the next moment he reached out and involuntarily slapped him heavily on his big bald head, "Sir, did you say that it was going to rain?" ”
Chen Gong originally thought that Wen Chou would need some time to think before he could think of the crux of the problem, but he didn't expect this guy to guess the matter after a little dialing, and he couldn't help but raise Wen Chou's weight in his heart a little more and put away his original contempt.
"Yes, according to the observation of a certain family, I am afraid that it will rain heavily in the evening, so the lord is so anxious to find a place on high ground to set up camp!"
By the time Zhou Qi's army reached the hill, the originally slightly black sky had become overcast, and there were even fierce gusts of wind.
Wen Chou's natural way was so heavy that Zhou Qi gave an order, and rode his horse to the troops and shouted loudly, "Hurry up!" The sound was like a dragon roar, which resounded throughout the heavens and the earth.
The originally empty hillside suddenly divided a large number of soldiers, cutting down the surrounding vegetation to make a camp, and for a time the whole camp was full of people, carrying the freshly cut tree trunks to make tents, but fortunately, the camp was finally built before the rainstorm.
Zhou Qi's large army avoided the intrusion of the torrential rain, and as those who followed, they did not have such a good life, and they were all slapped into soup chickens by the sudden rainstorm, and had to rush to the distance to find a place to shelter from the rain.
Zhou Qi, who was sitting in the camp tent, had been pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, and with the sound of a thunderbolt, the entire night sky that could not be reached out of his fingers was illuminated, and at this moment Zhou Qi suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes seemed to be two immortal swords that had survived forever flying into the sky and disappearing into the vast night sky in an instant.
The people in the big tent were waiting for the lord Zhou Qi to wake up and discuss the military, and suddenly felt that a majestic trend was coming towards everyone, and this general trend came and went quickly, but it left a deep impression on everyone.
"When you are not in a certain family, everything is decided by your brother Zhou Yu, and you must obey your brother's orders even if they are wrong, and you must protect yourself!" "No!"
"In that case, a certain family led Luo Cheng and them away!" As he spoke, he put on a rain hat and led Yan Xueqing and Qin Liangyu to disappear into the pouring rain.
"Eldest Prince, you said that the lord will not have a problem with this trip!" Wen Chou looked at the backs of Zhou Qi and the others, who had only a line of small black dots left, and looked at Zhou Yu with a worried look and asked in a whisper.
"Since Haoran dares to lead his two younger siblings there, a certain family naturally believes that he can come back safely!" Zhou Yu actually didn't have the slightest confidence in his heart, it was unknown whether Haoran could come back, but fortunately, everyone was very confident in him!
The pouring rain will be accompanied by bursts of thunder and lightning from time to time, and a group of people wearing rain hats can be seen riding horses and rushing towards the direction of Lujiang County.
"The lord doesn't need to lead some scouts to take those followers..."
"No, those guys haven't found out about us yet, so we don't need to bother them." Zhou Qi thought for a while and then opened his mouth to refuse... to be continued
