Chapter 358: Being a Hostage!

Hearing this, although Wu Deng was puzzled, he still said, "As long as Lu Gongzi can use it, the last general will definitely go all out!" ”

Hearing this, he saw Lu Chen's eyes suddenly light up, and said, "Okay!" Then I'll thank the general here first. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info I have already negotiated with these three just now, but there is no evidence, and they can't believe me. Therefore, I would like to ask the general to return to Luzhou City with them as hostages. I really can't find anyone here, except for me, I'm afraid you have this amount."

Hearing this, Wu Deng was stunned for a long time. After a while, Wu Deng looked at Lu Chen with some hesitation, and then he turned his head to look at the three people next to him. Only then did he come to Lu Chen's side and whispered in his ear, "Is Lu Gongzi sure that the other party is willing to cooperate with us, and it is not a conspiracy?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen immediately smiled and said, "General Wu, don't worry, whether it's true or not, they won't dare to touch you." If they really move you, the next moment the flood will flood the entire city of Luzhou, don't you say? ”

Hearing Lu Chen's inquiry, the three people from Luzhou City hurriedly responded, "Yes, yes, the general can rest assured, even if something happens to us, the general's safety will be guaranteed."

Hearing Lu Chen's assurances to the three of them, Wu Deng pondered for a while, and when he felt that there would indeed be no big problem, he slowly nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll go with them."

Hearing this, the three people from the big family also looked at Lu Chen with some shock, they never thought that Lu Chen would actually hand over such a general to them as a hostage before the war. Seeing the shocked appearance of these three people, the corners of Lu Chen's mouth curled slightly, and asked, "What, let General Wu go as a hostage, isn't this weight enough?" ”

Hearing this, the three of them came back to their senses from their stunned moments, and hurriedly said, "Enough is enough, since the general is so righteous, then we won't say anything more." When the general and the governor have a decisive battle, please send someone to inform us. The head of the house said that he would definitely send private soldiers to reinforce the general."

Hearing this, Lu Chen immediately arched his hand and said, "Then I will thank your family master first, and when we occupy Luzhou City, we will definitely come to thank you for your support, and the promises made before will be fulfilled one by one." ”

After the three of them talked with Lu Chen for a while, they offered to leave. After all, they came out at night, and if they stayed outside for too long, they were afraid that they would be discovered by the Governor. As they left, Wu Deng glanced at Lu Chen with a resentful face, and goosebumps rose all over Lu Chen's body.

Immediately, Wu Deng followed the three people all the way to Luzhou City.

When Wu Deng left, Long Yan asked with some confusion, "General, why do you want General Wu Deng to be a hostage?" After all, he is not our person, if something happens to him, I am afraid that my father will be unfavorable to the general~" What he said was tactful enough, he knew his father's character, if Wu Deng had an accident on the battlefield, his father would not blame, but if it was because of this kind of thing, he lost a general, I am afraid that his father would immediately come to find trouble with Lu Chen.

Hearing this, Lu Chen explained a little helplessly, "I know what you mean, and I also know that it is not very appropriate to do this." However, we really don't have enough people on our side to convince those big families that we really want to cooperate with them. There is another reason, I don't know if you have seen it, although the more than 10,000 soldiers we borrowed from the Western Battalion obeyed my command in name and above, in fact, every time they acted, they still asked General Wu Deng. ”

Speaking of this, Lu Chen sighed lightly again and said, "You should also know that the orders on the battlefield are not uniform, which is a taboo for marching and fighting. This is also a large part of the reason why I asked General Wooden to be a hostage this time. ”

After hearing Lu Chen's words, Long Yan nodded abruptly and said, "I understand, but I'm still a little worried." If this is just a trap designed by the other party, then General Wu is afraid that he will be more than lucky."

Hearing this, Lu Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "You're too worried." Let's not talk about whether these big families lied to us or not, even if they didn't reach a cooperation with us in the end, they would not hand over General Wu to the Governor's Mansion. At most, we spend a little bit of money and then exchange General Wu back. After all, most of these big families follow the golden mean. They will not offend one or the other to death. Even if they are now on the opposite side of us, they will leave themselves with a way to maneuver."

Hearing Lu Chen's explanation, Long Yan glanced at Lu Chen in some surprise and said, "I didn't expect the general to understand the way of life of these big families." At the beginning, my father also asked me to learn this, but I didn't like this kind of family intrigue since I was a child, so I hid directly in the army. Now it seems that these things are also somewhat useful at critical moments."

Hearing Long Yan's emotion, Lu Chen just smiled slightly and didn't say anything. The reason why he understands these things is not that he learned them in this life. Rather, in his previous life, he read some historical miscellaneous records and learned some knowledge from them. After all, those books were written by later generations, and there are the author's own opinions in them. Lu Chen saw it just for fun at the time, but he didn't expect to use it now.

The people of these big families, after hundreds of years of accumulation of ancestors, have already learned a set of ways to behave in the world. Especially the old men in the big family, all of them seem to be kind and kind, but they are actually some old foxes. Dealing with this kind of person is the most troublesome thing. Because before you know it, you may be gnawed by the other party to the point that there are no bones left.

Thinking of those miscellaneous notes and the evaluation of these big families, Lu Chen secretly sighed in his heart for a while. Immediately, he said to Long Yan, "You let the soldiers rest first, and in a day or two, we will attack Luzhou City!" ”

Hearing this, Long Yan immediately gave Lu Chen a military salute, and said in a sonorous and powerful voice, "Yes, the last general will definitely take Luzhou City!" ”

When Long Yan went out, Lu Chen's face immediately showed a complicated expression, he looked up at the top of the tent, but his heart was full of thoughts. It's been almost two years since I came here. However, this is also a good choice, after all, after coming here, the guilt in his heart for his parents and Ying'er has naturally become much weaker. After all, if you change the world, even your own body has changed.

After thinking of this, Lu Chen secretly swore in his heart: Since God has given him another chance, he can't be like in his previous life, he doesn't even have the ability to protect the people around him. In this life, he has to be strong enough to use his body to shield the people around him from the wind and rain! (To be continued.) )
