The carriage was slightly bumpy, and in the carriage, Su Xiaoxiao wore a pink corset skirt, a long shawl printed with a thin blue sarro, draped on the shoulders, and the colorful silk brigade wrapped around the arms, cute and dignified, really like the little fairy in the painting.

I vaguely feel that my husband likes him very much recently, and even takes himself with him when he goes out to do business, Su Xiaoxiao is very happy.

Lu Ning was closing his eyes to recuperate, but he had a headache thinking about things, and when he raised his eyes and saw Su Xiaoxiao, his mood improved, this kind of traditional aristocratic women's attire, Su Xiaoxiao, this little girl is now wearing it, she is already very similar, more pure, beautiful and lovely.

"Sir, I'll dance for you!" Su Xiaoxiao suddenly whispered.

Recently, Mr. has been busy again, although there are some bumps in the carriage now, it is a rare time to be alone with Mr., Su Xiaoxiao suddenly wanted to dance a song for Mr.

"Oh, here?" Lu Ning was slightly stunned, and his heart was a little moved, in the bumpy carriage, can this little girl dance peacefully? Come to think of it, it's hard to describe the beautiful dance, right?

However, Lu Ning immediately coughed and waved his hand, after all, there were soldiers outside marching under the scorching sun, and he couldn't go too far.

What's more, he was thinking about Wang Jin, and he was not in the mood.

A few days ago, news suddenly came that someone in Pingxiang County, Yuanzhou, unveiled the list, saying that he knew the culprit on the list, that is, the murderer who killed Wang Jin.

The villager who unveiled the list was from Xining Town, Pingxiang, and said that the criminal on the list was very similar to Li Dalang from this town, and said that he had a mole on his chest, which was consistent with the murderer.

On the reward notice, it is not stated that the murderer has this characteristic, which is obviously very reliable.

Lu Ning was going to Xining Town in person, after all, who knew which villager there might provide more useful information about the murderer? It is also impossible to send all the residents of Xining Town to Quanzhou.

Li Jingsui did not obstruct it, but sent Li Jingyi, the Duke of Baoning, to take charge of the case.

Lu Ning and Li Jingyu went to Hongzhou, where there was a Shanghai embassy, and then they came to Xining Town in Pingxiang, Yuanzhou.

Xining Town, just like the town of Dishui in the north when Lu Ning was in the East China Sea, is a border village with a small number of soldiers stationed, so it is a famous town.

Further west of Xining Town, it was the territory of Chu State, and now it is the territory of Xiangtan County, Changsha Prefecture, Machu.

Of course, there are not many garrisons in the Southern Tang Dynasty in Xining Town, only 300 of them, and the original village has been built into a wooden village, which has a certain defensive capability.

Lu Ning can be regarded as a light car, but there are also six carriages, and when he travels far away, Zhu Mao naturally has to take it with him, so as not to see himself for a long time, and the tiger maids can't suppress their wildness.

Four carriages carry four big insects, each carriage is made of a tiger maid as a coachman, the wooden cage on the ordinary carriage is covered with a black cloth, Lu Ning will show his face when feeding, and let them out to breathe the wind when he hits the tip, and the hairs are also as sweet as food, and when the black cloth is covered, he will sleep heavily.

And the ears of the horses in Lu Ning's vehicle were stuffed with cotton, so as not to let the hair occasionally roar, and these horses would be frightened.

The remaining carriage was Sun Sheng and Feng Yanlu.

Lu Ning now feels that it is good to have the two of them by his side, two former Jiangnan ministers with completely different personalities, who can make themselves think about problems from different angles.

In addition, Lu Ning was followed by a squad of the Red Tiger Army's pioneer battalion, ten soldiers, all of whom were barbarians from the Longru Army. Of course, they can't be said to be barbarians now, and in terms of way of thinking, they are no different from the Central Plains.

Four years ago, these Longru troops who followed Lu Ning from Quanzhou to the East China Sea were strong, and they were originally just baggage soldiers, but they were later the baggage soldiers who became the guards in front of the palace, so the knowledge of these barbarian baggage soldiers and the battles they experienced can be imagined.

Now, 500 people have been selected from this heavy pawn and organized as the vanguard battalion of the Red Tiger Army, which is the backbone of the Red Tiger Army, just like the assault battalion that the 500 giant swordsmen have changed its name.

The difference is that in Lu Ning's concept, except for the assault battalion composed of giant swordsmen, the rest of the battalions, the three main branches of the Red Tiger Army are all mixed, after all, they are soldiers trained for mountain and jungle combat, and they are completely different from the big army.

In addition to the battalion of giant swordsmen, the rest of the Red Tiger Army, three branches of the army, rattan soldiers, pikemen and archers.

Each squad of ten people will be composed of four rattan soldiers, four pikemen, and two archers.

In this way, it is a jungle chaos, each squad can form a formation, and whether it is a long-range attack or a close combat, it is lethal under the mix.

Before Lu Ning returned to Bianjing last year, he had considered the formation of the Red Tiger Army, and the soldiers of the pioneer battalion had long been trained in this mixed military formation, initially in Qingzhou, and now they had arrived in Jiangling Mansion.

Because Concubine Xian, who was in charge of training them, had also come to Gangneung Mansion.

Of course, Zhe Saihua is only the behind-the-scenes supervision, and the instructors who come forward to train them in technical attack are all the best among rattan soldiers, pikemen, and archers, and the ones who are responsible for training them to form formations are the platoon envoys in the Military Academy Hall of the Privy Council who specialize in studying formation all day long.

Qingzhou has a long history of research on various ordnances, including the rattan army, including the improvement of leather armor.

And these are all ordnance suitable for mountain and jungle warfare.

Zhesaihua has always liked to stay in Qingzhou, but she is very curious and interested in the improvement of various ordnance.

In fact, the Qingzhou Ordnance Supervisor even studied the rattan armor according to the instructions of the Holy Son of Heaven, but after all, he felt that although it had a certain protective ability, it was definitely not as suitable for mountain combat as the improved leather armor, and if the protection ability of the rattan armor was to be improved, the rattan armor would also become extremely clumsy, and it would lose the meaning of the light infantry.

It's a rattan card, it's really a very good armor, not to mention going south and fighting with all kinds of barbarians, it is the main force of the forbidden army, and it can also be equipped.

Nowadays, rattan craftsmen and leather armor craftsmen have arrived in Gangneung Mansion to build armor for the Red Tiger Army, which is preparing to form an army.

Of course, in fact, if the cost of leather armor is calculated, including the cost of time and the number of craftsmen, it is higher than that of iron armor, but the potential opponents of the Red Tiger Army are Southeast Asian countries, and they go to battle with thick iron armor, and in the mountains and jungles, the enemy is not found, and they are afraid that they will die of exhaustion first, and in wet places, iron armor is easy to rust.

The Red Tiger Army Pioneer Battalion in Gangneung Province is still training day and night.

Of course, the pioneer battalion naturally does not mean that the battalion is charging ahead, but a kind of naming for the elite in the army, and the soldiers recruited into the Red Tiger Army in the future, how the pioneer battalion trains and how to form a formation, etc., naturally have to learn and train hard.

Now the class that was sent to Lu Ning by the fold race flower is the fifty class of the five capitals of the pioneer battalion, and the performance is relatively good.

At this time, Lu Ning also opened the curtain to see that of the ten soldiers outside, two rattan players were in front, four gunners surrounded two archers in the middle, and two rattan players were behind.

Even now, sometimes the two rattan players behind the hall will also go backwards, and naturally they will form a vigilant search mode in the jungle and mountains.

The long-runner and the rattan player both carry a few javelins behind their backs, which in a way, this is an artifact of mountain jungle warfare.

Lu Ning nodded.
