But......

Wang Qian's eyes flashed, his right hand held the big knife on his waist, and he wanted to rush forward to capture Zhang Shicheng with a slight movement of his footsteps. As long as you capture the thief leader, you can threaten the opponent's army and allow yourself to lead the army to support the head of the family.

But the next moment, Wang Qian's footsteps had to stop.

"Commander Wang, you'd better not move again, or the arrow in my hand won't have eyes."

The voice came from a high place, Wang Jian looked up, and sure enough, he saw an archer with a bow and arrow squatting on top of a big tree in front of him. Wang Jian can also be regarded as a martial arts practitioner, but looking at the archer's eagle-like sharp eyes, he knows that he will definitely not be able to escape the arrow in this person's hand.

Zhang Shicheng still smiled elegantly and said: "Commander Wang, I forgot to introduce, this is my general, Yu Mingqing." This person is not an archer, although he doesn't dare to say that he can penetrate Yang in a hundred steps, but he can still aim at the eyebrows of the king at this distance. ”

Wang Jian really didn't dare to move anymore, and stood on the ground and sank like water.

"Rest assured, as long as you don't act rashly, I promise not to hurt you and your men."

Wang Jian glared at Zhang Shicheng unwillingly, and the green tendons in his hand holding the big knife burst out.

"How did you know that our Taiyuan Wang clan's men and horses were ambushed here?"

Zhang Shicheng replied with a faint smile: "This is the territory of the Fanyang Lu clan, as long as you find a Lu clan who is familiar with the terrain, is it difficult to find a place where tens of thousands of troops can hide?" ”

Wang Jian was unwilling, and asked again: "How is the head of the family inside?" Let me tell you, if the head of the family has any three long and two short in it, even if I, Wang Qian, fight to the death, I will bite off a piece of your flesh alive. ”

"Commander Wang rest assured, the head of the Wang Yuan family will be fine, the situation inside is a foregone conclusion, the Taiyuan Wang family will return empty-handed at most today, and no one will worry about their lives."

Hearing Zhang Shicheng say this, Wang Jian was relieved. He didn't agree with getting involved in the Lu family's civil strife, but now he can lose nothing, which is a blessing.

Wang Qian's hand holding the big knife slowly relaxed, and Yu Mingqing on the tree noticed this, and the bow that had been full of strings gradually retracted.

At this time, in the dense forest behind him, Han Lin slowly approached with the two of them.

"Brother Zhang, the eighth day of the first month has brought Chen Youliang over." Han Lin smiled at Zhang Shicheng.

Zhang Shicheng turned his head to look at Chen Youliang, then looked at Zhu Chuba and said, "It seems that the progress on your side is also going well." ”

Zhu Chuba replied with a smile: "Thanks to Brother Zhang's blessing, it went well." ”

Chen Youliang looked at Wang Jian who didn't dare to move in disbelief, from the beginning of the army he saw when he came over just now, his heart was filled with shock, and he shook his head with a wry smile and said: "It seems that even if I don't retreat today, it is not yet known who will kill the deer." ”

Zhang Shicheng looked at Chen Youliang with a smile and didn't say a word.

Chen Youliang arched his hand and said: "Chen admires." ”

Zhang Shicheng waved his hand and said: "This is all thanks to the plan of the Shen family master, Jiang is still old and spicy, and without losing one person, this storm that swept all the families in the Central Plains will be eliminated invisibly." ”

Chen Youliang's eyes froze.

Wu Xing Shen is really a terrible opponent.

Zhu Chuba smiled at Chen Youliang and said, "Brother Chen can lose this time? ”

Chen Youliang exclaimed: "The plan of the Shen family master is perfect, and Chen has to accept it. But if he meets him in the future, Chen will be vigilant for twelve points, and he will not lose so simply again. ”

Zhang Shicheng said: "I am looking forward to the confrontation with Brother Chen on the battlefield. ”

Chen Youliang said again: "However, Chen still has something to understand, can you solve my confusion?" ”

"Say, you must know everything." Zhu Chuba said.

Chen Youliang nodded and asked, "The Taiyuan Wang Clan has the Shen Clan's army blocking it, but what about the Longxing Li Clan's army on the other side?" Wu Xing Shen's soldiers and horses will not be able to block the two people. ”

Zhu Chuba smiled and said: "Of course not, but Brother Chen, don't forget, now in Fan Yang Lu's mansion, there are still two prime ministers." ”

Chen Youliang was shocked and lost his voice: "Even the soldiers and horses of the imperial court have arrived?" ”

Zhu Chuba nodded.

Chen Youliang frowned and pondered, and said, "With the intervention of the imperial court, this matter is not so easy to solve." ”

Zhang Shicheng said: "This Brother Chen doesn't have to worry, I have to go back to Jiangbei after this matter, and the court has its own major families, and it has nothing to do with us." ”

"But there is one more thing, I have to remind Brother Chen." Zhang Shicheng said again.

"What?"

"Brother Chen's withdrawal this time, but he plans to return to Jiangbei?"

Chen Youliang frowned and said, "Otherwise? ”

Zhang Shicheng glanced at Chen Youliang deeply, with a smile in his eyes, "I advise Brother Chen not to go back to Jiangbei, let's find another way." ”

Chen Youliang was also stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly, he looked at Zhang Shicheng with a gloomy face and said, "You have already eaten my territory in Jiangbei?" ”

Zhang Shicheng said with a smile: "Brother Chen's trip originally wanted to wait for me, if it weren't for my luck, I wouldn't have suffered a big loss under Brother Chen?" Now that Brother Chen has returned, Jiangbei's territory should also be charged with interest. ”

Chen Youliang snorted coldly and said to Zhu Chuba: "Give me a horse." ”

"Brother Chen, but you're going to chase your 50,000 army?"

Chen Youliang roared in a low voice: "Nonsense, if you don't chase them, they will all go back to Jiang******* Lin Er ordered below, "Come on, prepare a good horse for Generalissimo Chen, and then let him leave." ”

Soon the horse was brought in, Chen Youliang got on the horse and left, and did not forget to throw down a sentence before leaving: "The green mountains do not change the green water for a long time, today's loss, there will be a day to get it back in the future." ”

"Waiting for Brother Chen to come to collect debts."

Zhang Shicheng and Zhu Chuba and Han Lin glanced at each other and laughed loudly, so happy!

......

On the birthday of Mrs. Lu, hundreds of thousands of troops were gathered outside Fanyang City, and Emperor Shun was furious when he learned about it and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. In the final result, Fan Yang Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingtian colluded with the rebel Chen Youliang, and the crime was extremely evil, but the Lu family was the original Xun of the Han family, and the two were handed over to the Fan Yang Lu family to deal with, and the Taiyuan Wang family and the Longxing Li family aided in the abuse, although they were not the main offenders, they were still unforgivable, and the two clans were ordered to close the clans and not be allowed to enter and leave the Central Plains for ten years. The Wuxing Shen family and the Longxi Li family rebelled meritoriously, rewarded 10,000 taels of gold, and awarded the Wuxing Shen family head Shen Wansan and the new head of the Longxi Li family Li Yantang the throne of the Central Plains king, leading the Central Plains Han to unite as one and defend the original dynasty.

This storm that swept through all the big families came to an end, and although the four major Chinese families suffered losses, they did not break their bones, and the Shen and Li families became the biggest winners of this battle. The two prime ministers, Tokhtokh and Muren Gedatan, who already knew everything about it, were silent about the relationship between the great families and the rebel army for some reason.

After everything was calm, in Fanyang City, under the roof of the whole city, Lu Weiwen, the head of the Lu family, personally led the next head of the Lu family, Lu Qingyun and Hanlin Hanwen Hanqing, the three sons, to send Shen Wansan, the head of the Shen family in Wuxing, to the Hui clan.

"I don't thank you for my great kindness, the Shen family master has helped me today, and in the future, I, Fan Yang Lu, will do my best to repay it." Lo Wai Man bowed and thanked him.

Shen Wansan turned sideways and did not accept the gift of the head of the Lu family, and said humbly: "Uncle Shi don't say such things again, Wansan's move is just self-preservation." ”

Lu Weiguang and Shen Wansan came and went, greeting each other, but Lu Hanqing behind him lowered his head with a lonely face. Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he raised his head suddenly, walked to Lu Weiguang and knelt down.

"The head of the family, Han Qing has something to ask for, and I hope the head of the family will agree."

Lu Weiguang looked at this grandson who had made great contributions this time, frowned slightly, and said, "Is there anything you can't go back to?" ”

Lu Hanqing did not give up, stubbornly raised his head and said: "Grandpa, my grandson is a martial idiot, I don't understand these twists and turns in the family, and staying in the clan will always cause trouble, which will annoy you." I didn't know that there was such an interesting thing in the world, but since I met the eighth brother, my grandson has an idea that has been haunting my heart and refuses to dissipate for a long time. ”

Lu Weiwen chuckled in his heart and asked, "What do you think?" ”

"My grandson wants to follow the eighth brother to the front line to kill the enemy and fight."

Lu Weiguang was shocked, "What? ”

Lu Hanqing still said resolutely: "My grandson wants to follow the eighth brother to fight on the battlefield." ”

Lu Weiguang was stunned, and then said angrily: "Nonsense, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, how can you go anywhere?" ”

Shen Wansan glanced at Lu Hanqing with interest, and said to Lu Weiguang: "It's gratifying that the junior has such a great ambition. Uncle Shi might as well agree to his request, and I will let him follow Shicheng and experience on the battlefield. ”

Lu Weiguang pondered for a moment when he heard this, and asked Lu Hanqing: "On the battlefield, life and death have their own destiny, are you sure you want to go?" ”

"Grandson is sure."

Looking at Lu Hanqing's determined gaze, Lu Weiguang smiled and said, "Okay, good." Since my descendants of the Lu family are not willing to be lonely, then I, as a grandfather, can't hold back. ”

"Lu Mang......" Lu Weiguang called.

Lu Mang, the commander of the Lu Clan's Mansion Army, who was behind him, stepped forward and knelt down on one knee in front of Lu Weiguang: "My subordinates are here." ”

"Lu Mang, the old man now orders you, as the head of the Lu family, to divide 10,000 government troops, and take Hanqing with you to defect to Zhang Shicheng's army, from now on, you and others will obey Zhang Shicheng's orders and must not disobey."

Lu Mang was stunned, raised his head and asked, "Then, the third son, he?" ”

Lu Weiguang turned his head and asked Lu Hanqing: "Let you be a centurion under Lu Mang's command, start from the bottom, and the promotion and demotion are all determined by Zhang Shicheng's performance based on your performance, are you willing?" ”

Lu Hanqing was overjoyed when he heard this, as long as he could go into battle to kill the enemy, he was very satisfied, and he didn't want to be in an important position at the beginning with the identity of the third son of the Lu family. Wouldn't it be more fun to start from scratch?

Immediately, Lu Hanqing kowtowed and thanked him: "The master of the Xie family is complete, Hanqing should do his best to establish a meritorious service on the battlefield, and he will not be disgraced by Fan Yang Lu's family." ”

Lu Weiwen laughed, stretched out his hand to help Lu Hanqing, and looked kind, "Okay, get up." The battlefield is ruthless, you should be careful in the future, and follow behind Lu Mang's leadership to make contributions. ”

"Yes."

In this way, Shen Wansan and his entourage added the 10,000 government troops led by Lu Mang, and a team of tens of thousands of people, and left the Fanyang Lu clan in a mighty way.

Lu Hanlin and Lu Hanwen looked at the back of the third brother who had gone away, and their faces were full of envy. Lu Hanwen said: "The third brother dared to make such a decision, which really surprised me. From then on, the heavens and the earth let him roam, and he really envied me. ”

Lu Hanlin also looked into the distance and sighed: "The third brother is wild, maybe the battlefield is the most suitable place for him, and it is unknown whether he will be able to make contributions in the future." ”

Lu Hanlin was silent for a moment, and then said: "But we can't be left behind by him, he has made great achievements on the front line, and we will escort him in the rear." ”

The two brothers glanced at each other, and the place where their eyes met burst out with unprecedented ambition.

"Who said that only on the front line can you make achievements!"

......

Jiangbei, Yingzhou.

Today's Jiangbei Province is almost all occupied by the rebel army, after Chen Youliang led 50,000 troops to Fanyang, the territory that originally belonged to him was also divided between Zhang Shicheng and Han Yu's rebel army, and Zhang Shicheng and Han Yu have long been allied, so Jiangbei Province can now be said to be monolithic.

Yingzhou City has always been the headquarters of Zhang Shicheng's department, and Han Yu was stationed in Zhaozhou, which is not far from here, and the two armies helped each other and benefited each other.

Zhu Chuba originally belonged to the Red Turban Army of the White Lotus Sect, but after returning from Fanyang City, he stayed in Yingzhou City and did not go back. Regarding the reason why Zhu Chuba stayed in Yingzhou, Han Yu also tacitly understood it and never said a word.

"Brother Shicheng, your rebel army has occupied half of the territory of Jiangbei Province, and the other half has been captured by our Red Turban Army. The province of Jiangbei is saturated, and it is time to expand outward. ”

In Zhang Shicheng's marshal mansion, Zhang Shicheng and Zhu Chuba sat in the lobby. A look of worry flashed between Zhang Shicheng's eyebrows, and he said: "Don't hide it from Brother Zhu, the heart of expansion has long been there for my brother." It's just that I just received bad news yesterday, and I'm afraid this matter will have to be postponed. ”

"Oh? What's the news? ”

Zhang Shicheng took a cup of tea handed over by his sister Zhang Ying, put it aside, and said: "Yesterday, Uncle Shen sent a letter saying that the imperial court had taken the Jiangbei rebellion seriously, and ordered the Sichuan Provincial Zuo Prime Minister to answer that Badulu was the commander, and his son Polo Timur was the deputy marshal, and he was leading the troops to our Jiangbei Province to quell the rebellion. ”

"Eighth brother, drink tea." Zhang Ying was dressed in pure white tulle and brought tea to Zhu Chuba.

Zhu Chuba greeted him with a smile, took the tea, and then turned his head and asked Zhang Shicheng: "Who is this Badulu, why is Brother Shicheng so worried?" ”

Zhang Shicheng picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and replied: "This answer is that Badu Lu is a fierce general under the original imperial court, who has guarded Sichuan Province for many years, and there has never been a rebellion under his command, and no foreign thieves dare to attack. His son Polo Timur is also a young talent, and I heard that his martial arts are superb, and he is probably not under the eighth brother. ”

"Oh?" Zhu Chuba raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then how many soldiers did they bring this time?" ”

"To say the least, there must be 300,000."

"Three hundred thousand?" Zhu Chuba groaned: "That's really a lot." ”

Zhang Shicheng said worriedly: "I am not afraid of an army of only 300,000 people, after all, you and I have recruited and expanded troops in Jiangbei Province, and the strength is far more than that." But 300,000 people under the command of a famous commander are really not to be underestimated. ”
