Early the next morning, a team of people and horses drove the carriage out of the gate of Manniu Village one after another, Liu Chen took Wu You's family to walk behind, and arched his hand to Kang Ren, who was seeing off at the gate of the village, and said: "Brother Ren, don't leave it here, you prepare well, I don't know how the evil wolf gang will embarrass you, you have to prepare early." ”

"Young master, rest assured, there is Kang Zhi, how to deal with this problem does not need me to think about it. Kang Ren said indifferently, "Besides, in three or five months, we can reunite again, and I hope that the young master's forces in Liangdu can be smooth." ”

"Kang creditor, you can't be careless, the Evil Wolf Gang obviously won't give up the young master easily, you saved the young master once, and let them suffer heavy losses, with the character of the wolf king, he will definitely add fuel and vinegar to say bad things about the forces behind him, the Evil Wolf Gang is not terrible, but the strength behind him can't be careless. If the owner of the village is difficult to deal with, you can send someone to Qingsongguan to rob my senior brother for help, I will also send a message to my senior brother and ask him to take care of the point, our Qingsongguan and Manniuzhai are each other's horns, controlling the Hengfeng Mountains, and it is also for the great cause of the lord in the future, so be careful. Seeing that Kang Ren didn't care, Xu Maogong reminded Kang Ren on the side, with a trace of worry in his eyes.

"Dao Chief, don't worry, I will calculate everything clearly, I may not be in a hurry with my martial arts, but I can still calculate and measure words, as for strategy, I have studied with my master for nearly 20 years, although I am not as good as Dao Chang, but there is no problem in dealing with the little cubs of the Evil Wolf Gang. Kang Zhi was also a little unconcerned.

"Husband, fourth brother, you still have to hear the account, be careful, there is no big mistake, now we are standing guard for the young master, we must guard this bridgehead, and we must not lose it because of paralysis and carelessness. Duan Mei said to Kang Ren at this time.

"Young master, don't worry, we will definitely be careful. Kang Ren bowed to Liu Chen and said.

"It's troublesome Brother Ren, let's set off now, and there will be a period later. Liu Chen arched his hand in the carriage, sat in the carriage, and then ordered the coachman to hurry up and set off.

Looking at the carriage that was gradually moving away, the relaxed smiles on Kang Ren and Kang Zhi's faces disappeared and turned solemn.

"Tell the little ones, add three more posts, it may not be peaceful recently, everyone should be very careful, don't let people knock on the stick. Kang Ren said to the big and small leaders around him.

"It's no problem to add three posts, I'm adding three groups of secret sentinels, I'm afraid that the forces behind the Evil Wolf Gang will sneak in, don't let the big guy lose his head in his sleep. Kang Zhi also added on the side.

It turned out that when they said goodbye just now, they didn't care about it and just pretended, and they didn't want Liu Chen to remember it.

"Dao Chief, I'm still a little worried about Kangren and them, please go to Qingsongguan and ask your senior brother to take care of Kangren and them. Liu Chen said worriedly.

"Then the lord, I will go back to Qingsongguan first, you go normally, I will catch up with you as soon as possible, Uncle Wu, the head of the sect and a few village masters, please take care of the lord along the way, and take the first step in the poor road. Xu Maogong took the reins of the horse, hugged his fists and said to the people around him, and after finishing speaking, he turned into a horse and ran in the direction of Qingsongguan.

After getting on the road again, there were no twists and turns along the way, not even a little thief, and the road was safe and sound, and the distance from Liangdu was getting closer and closer. They also walked out of the Hengfeng Mountain Range two days ago, and Xu Maogong had already followed the team.

Walking in this vast plain, the distance from Liangdu is getting closer and closer, and the eyes are low hills and boundless deserts, the whole world seems to be full of rough style, and the farms that pass by the wine road are also thick courtyard walls rammed with mud, and the entire farm circle is tight, like a small military fortress. And the merchants and peasants on both sides of the road also showed the roughness of the northwest, casually dressed in a short fight, wearing a sheepskin jacket on his body, a short knife pinned to his waist, and his face was full of the vicissitudes of wind and frost and the vicissitudes of time.

Liu Chen felt a deep sense of identity, the same face and style as his hometown in the northwest of the earth, and he also silently felt close in his heart, and there was a feeling of homesickness. His father still left a very good inheritance for himself, and this fiefdom in the northwest, as well as this viscount, are the best gifts for himself. As for the establishment of power, and then see the customs of the northwest, I am more confident, since ancient times Liangdu is a place where soldiers must fight, control Liangdu, is equivalent to controlling the trade road to the northwest, this is a road flowing with gold and silver, and their fiefdom is here, as long as they can arm themselves with the business knowledge they saw on the Internet in their previous life, plus the advice of a group of subordinates, then they will not lack development funds, the key is to start. As for the troops, the people of the Northwest are aggressive, all of them are fierce, isn't this the best source of soldiers, with money, with soldiers, then they can't develop themselves, and they are ashamed of the people who cross it!

Under Liu Chen's constant thoughts, the carriage had gradually approached a big city, and at the gate of the city there were mighty soldiers standing with guns, and some of the soldiers checked the pedestrians and luggage passing by. The city gate of the city is towering, three or four zhang high, and there is a two-story city gate tower above the city gate, which is domineering and powerful. And the surrounding area is also a three- or four-zhang high city wall built with bluestone, which tightly surrounds the entire Liang Du and stands up. The terrain where Liangdu is located is flat, Liangdu occupies a circle of dozens of miles, are tightly wrapped by the city wall, the east and west terrain are a horse and a flat river, and to the south twenty miles away is the majestic and continuous Qinlian Mountains, to the north more than ten miles away is the death desert of the vast yellow sand. Therefore, as long as the Liangdu is occupied, it locks the gateway of the interconnection between the east and the west, where the advance can be attacked, the retreat can be defended, and there are many herdsmen who graze and raise horses here, and it is easy to raise a cavalry.

Liu Chen was still thinking about it, but he was interrupted by the continuous shouting of the sergeant in front; "What's going on in front, why did the convoy stop and not let you enter the city?" Liu Chen looked puzzled.

"Young master, the general guarding the city in front said that the convoy is huge, and you need to pay fifty taels to enter the city. Wu You ran over and said.

"Hmm, as the viscount of Liangdu, do you still need to pay it? If you need to, then pay it, after all, it's not easy. Liu Chen said indifferently, this road is dusty, he wants to enter the city early and find an inn to take a good bath.

Liu Chen closed his eyes in the car and waited for the carriage to enter the city, but after a while, Wu You ran over again: "Young master, the general guarding the city wants to see you." ”

"Advanced City, let's talk about it when it's over. Liu Chen said impatiently.

Wu You went over and said a few words to a sergeant at the gate of the city, and then they let Liu Chen's convoy into the city, Liu Chen listened to the creaking sound of the ruts, he never thought he was so good, and he was finally able to take a bath, Liu Chen secretly thought, after all, this way out of the wild cow village, for fear of being chased by the evil wolf gang, they were all on the road, and they didn't take a bath for more than ten days, and their bodies were indeed a little itchy and a little uncomfortable.

"I love bathing, my skin is good, lalalalala" Liu Chen soaked in the big wooden barrel in his room, he was finally able to take a bath, and his mood would be much better, and the fatigue of the journey gradually disappeared, and he wanted to soak it out.

"Young master, the general at the gate of the city asks to see you. A carefree voice suddenly came in outside the door.

"Right away, let him wait. Liu Chen said a word, and wiped the water droplets on his body.

After a while, Liu Chen came to the lobby of the inn and saw the sergeant who was dressed up, and when the sergeant saw Liu Chen come out, he also hurriedly got up, and bowed to Liu Chen.

Liu Chen looked ignorant, didn't know what the situation was, looked at Wu You, and found that the other party was also surprised, obviously he didn't know what was going on.

"Young master, the small blue wolf legion Liangdu garrison has the general Ma Ping, and finally waited for the young master. "That's always it.

"Ma Ping, do you call me the young master?" Liu Chen still looked ignorant.

"The little one is arranged here by the master, waiting for the young master, the one hundred and twenty brothers under the small one hundred and twenty brothers are all the Praetorian Guard soldiers who were rescued from the battlefield from the master, and when the master asked for the Viscount of Liangdu, he transferred the hundred-man team from the Praetorian Guard to the Liangdu garrison, and used it as the young master's team. Ma Ping explained.

"There is such a thing, Uncle Wu, you have been following your father for a long time, do you know?" Liu Chen was skeptical.

"Young master, I don't know, but it's been almost ten years since I retired from the army, and this should be done within five years, but my subordinates don't know. Wu You said.

"Young master, the lord gave a letter to his subordinates before leaving, and half a jade pendant, saying that when you see the letter and the jade pendant, you will understand. Ma Ping took out an old letter with good fire paint from his bosom, as well as half a piece of mutton fat white jade.

Liu Chen didn't open the letter, when he saw the jade pendant, he understood, took out the jade pendant he carried with him from his neck, and it happened to form a pair of yin and yang fish with the jade pendant given by Ma Ping, Liu Chen understood that at this time, the love token of his father and mother, before his mother died, gave her own to Liu Chen, and his father's was given to Ma Ping as a token, it seems that there is something that his father is hiding from himself, otherwise how can he explain it.

"General Ma, please hurry up, I believe it, Uncle Wu, you go and call Lin Chong and Xu Maogong to come over. Liu Chen picked up Ma Ping and said to Wu You.

Wu You answered, turned around and went outside to call Lin Chong and them.

"Young master, the lord has not purchased a set of courtyards in this Liangdu City, just over there in the Horseshoe Temple, near the North City Gate, and there is a manor outside the North City Gate, after all, this Liangdu is still three hundred miles away from the young master's fiefdom, the lord wants the young master to live in Liangdu, and the fief will be handed over to Uncle Wu and them to go to Dali. At this time, Ma Ping also told Liu Chen what Liu Chen's father had told him.

"Well, it's still my father's thoughtfulness, it's been hard for General Ma, so many years, and I've been guarding the northwest. Liu Chen also said to Ma Ping.

"To be able to repay the lord for saving his life, this bit of suffering is nothing. Ma Ping hurriedly got up and replied to Liu Chen.

"General Ma doesn't have to be polite, we don't need so much courtesy. Liu Chen said with a smile.

At this time, Xu Mao Gonglin Chong outside the door and they all followed Wu You in, Liu Chen saw it and said with a smile: "This is General Ma, my father arranged to fight for us here, I originally wanted to take a look at the letter left by my father here with you to see if there is anything hidden." But now I have changed my mind, General Ma said that my father has bought me a courtyard in this Liangdu, so let's go to the house to read the letters, and it is convenient for us to discuss, after all, there are many people in this inn, and there are many people, and everyone has them, so as to prevent the partition wall from having ears. ”

"We listen to the Lord. Liu Baogong shook the dust and said.

"Then don't unload the carriage, let General Ma lead the way, let's go home first!" Liu Chen said.
