After hearing Lu Chen's words, Luo Gong was still a little puzzled. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 He looked around at the empty area and asked, "Has the young master already contacted Captain Long?" ”

"We don't need to contact us, if I'm not mistaken, the group of soldiers we met just now should have already told the Jiannan Jiedu envoy for us. What we need to do now is to wait quietly for them on this river."

Hearing this, Luo Gong's face suddenly changed. However, he still asked with some anxiety, "What if those people didn't report it?" We can't just be floating on water all the time! ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen shook his head slightly and said, "Even if these people don't say it, it is estimated that the news that we are here will reach the ears of the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu." After all, we're a huge team of more than 1,000 people. Moreover, even though we have changed into the caravan's clothing, everyone's equipment has not changed, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is something wrong with our caravan. Especially in this special period, the Jiannan Jiedu envoy will definitely strengthen the monitoring of the border. ”

After Lu Chen finished speaking, he stopped talking and continued to look at the map in his hand.

Their fleet drifted on the Jialing River for half a day. At dusk, a convoy of soldiers and horses appeared on the bank of the river in the distance. Even from a distance, Lu Chen could see that these people were by no means ordinary soldiers. Whether it is the neat pace of the other party or the dark black armor worn by the other party, it seems to show the identity and status of this army.

The troops walked fast, and a moment later, the team had reached the nearby riverbank. At this time, I only heard a familiar voice from the rear of the team, "Lu Shizi, father, please come to the mansion for a while~"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure walked out from behind the soldiers. After seeing this figure, Lu Chen smiled slightly, and then said loudly, "Dock, stop the boat!" ”

When the boat stopped on the shore, Long Yan immediately ran over, bent down slightly and saluted Lu Chen, and said in a low voice, "City Lord, in order to prevent the Holy City and your identity from being exposed, I can only call you Lu Shizi in the future, and please don't blame the City Lord."

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled and said, "Those who become big things are not informal, so you don't have to worry too much about these details." As long as it's good for us, we can do anything."

After hearing Lu Chen's words, Long Yan glanced at Lu Chen gratefully, and then said, "Lu Shizi, please go to your father's mansion." However, my father only let you go alone."

Hearing this request, Lu Chen did not hesitate at all, turned his head and said to Luo Gong, "You lead the city guards to wait here, and I will go to Jiannan Jiedu to make a trip there."

Hearing that Lu Chen really wanted to go alone, Luo Gong asked with some concern, "Young master, you can't go alone." In case there is any conspiracy of the Jiannan Jiedu envoy, it will be difficult for the young master to escape at that time."

As soon as Luo Gong finished speaking, he saw Lu Chen shake his head and said, "If I don't even have this bit of courage, how can I rely on to cooperate with the Jiannan Jiedu Envoy?" Don't worry, there is Longyan here, and the Jiannan Jiedu envoy will not treat me like this."

Hearing this, Luo Gong glanced at Long Yan, and then arched his hand and said, "I hope that Captain Long must hold on to the safety of the young master!" ”

"Don't worry, my father won't be that kind of person. Besides, it is not good for my father to seize the lord of the city."

After speaking, Lu Chen followed Long Yan to the group of soldiers waiting next to him.

Following this group of soldiers, Lu Chen gradually moved away from the Jialing River. After they walked out of the nearby mountains, Lu Chen saw a luxuriously decorated carriage parked not far away. When they came to the carriage in a slow step, the groom guarding the carriage hurriedly saluted Long Yan and said, "Young Master Long, please get on the carriage!" ”

Hearing this, Long Yan made a gesture of please to Lu Chen, and said, "Master Lu, please get into the carriage."

Lu Chen also politely replied, and then the two of them got into the carriage. As soon as Lu Chen sat down, he felt that the carriage shook slightly, and they had already set off. This carriage is not only luxurious in appearance, but also very comfortable to sit on, except for the slightest shaking at the beginning, you don't feel the slightest bump on the road.

After entering the carriage, Long Yan glanced outside from the window. Only then did he turn his head and whispered, "City Lord, the decisive battle between the Yizhou Taishou and the Shannan West Dao Jiedu Envoy has already started two days ago. However, the strength shown by Nayizhou Taishou in the decisive battle shocked everyone. The tens of thousands of people that the city lord saw before were not all the troops of Yizhou Taishou. After the start of the Armageddon, more than 10,000 soldiers and horses appeared under the hands of Yizhou Taishou!

"As soon as the more than 10,000 soldiers appeared, they rushed to the surrounding cities, captured three cities on the same day, and plundered some of the surrounding villages."

Speaking of this, I saw a trace of anger on Long Yan's face, and there was even more strong resentment in his tone, saying, "This Yizhou Taishou's methods are too vicious!" After his army broke through those cities, he directly gave the order to burn, kill and loot. The cities they had taken were all in shambles, and corpses were everywhere. Yizhou Taishou really didn't care about anything for the sake of this war. However, after he carried out such a sneak attack, he basically cut off the grain route and retreat route of the Shannan West Road Jiedu Envoy. Even, so far, the army of Yizhou Taishou has formed a flanking attack on the Jiedu of Shannan West Road"

After hearing the current situation, Lu Chen said with some surprise: "Didn't the two of them still face each other on both sides of the river before?" Why was it that in just a few days, it was attacked by Yizhou Taishou to the other side? This Shannan West Road Festival Envoy is not so wasteful, right? ”

Hearing Lu Chen's inquiry, he saw Long Yan shaking his head and sighing, "This can't actually be blamed on the Shannan and West Dao Jiedu envoys, that day in the decisive battle, the two sides had already set up positions on both sides of the river. But as soon as the armies of the two sides came into contact, who expected that one of the generals of the Shannan West Dao Jiedu envoy actually rebelled. Moreover, he was not the only one who rebelled, and several generals also defected. This made the army of the Shannan West Dao Jiedu envoy suddenly chaotic. And Yizhou Taishou took advantage of this opportunity to immediately rush towards the other side of the river with all his strength, and it didn't take long to successfully attack the riverbank. In desperation, the Shannan Xidao Jiedu envoy was only able to shrink his forces and retreat from the river bank to the rear. ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen's eyes did not show much surprise. When the two sides first started to confront, Lu Chen already felt that Yizhou Taishou was not just as simple as it seemed. Otherwise, he wouldn't be stupid and blatantly confront Shannan Xidao Jiedu. Now it seems that for this battle, it is estimated that Nayizhou Taishou has been planning for a long time, otherwise, he would not have been so well prepared. (To be continued.) )
