Chapter 348: West Camp!
Hearing this, Jian Nan Jiedu only raised his eyebrows, and he was not too surprised. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info After all, with his intelligence network, these things have been heard before.
However, after hearing Lu Chen's request, he saw that Jiannan Jiedu had a look of embarrassment. He thought for a moment, and then said slowly, "It's not that the old man doesn't want to help Xiaoyou. It's really that the old man has no soldiers under his hands. Xiaoyou should also know that although the old man has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. However, the vast majority are untouchable. Nanzhao in the south has been eyeing the enemy, and the Qianzhou Observation Envoy in the east has also been recruiting troops recently. Not to mention the Tibetan Kingdom in the west, which even the imperial court regarded as a great enemy. Therefore, the old man's ability to send 10,000 troops now is already the maximum limit."
After hearing this bitter complaint from Jiannan Jiedu, Lu Chen's face did not show the slightest disappointment, he still said with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, my lord, I only need General Zhang's 10,000 soldiers and horses to help, and I have the confidence to take Luzhou City." Moreover, in order to thank the adults for their assistance, I prepared a generous gift for the adults: 100,000 taels of gold, and gave them to the adults in three small cities close to the tributaries of the Jialing River, as a thank you this time! ”
Hearing Lu Chen's thanks, Rao was a steady Jiannan Jiedu envoy, and he also glanced at Lu Chen with surprise. Immediately, he thought for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "If Xiaoyou really wants to take Luzhou City, the old man will help Xiaoyou again." As for this thank-you gift, just wait until the war is over! ”
Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled heartily and arched his hand, "Then thank you to the envoy." As for this thank-you gift, it will be delivered in the next few days. However, because the quantity is too large, it can't be collected in a short period of time, so it will be shipped multiple times, and I ask for your forgiveness."
After hearing Lu Chen's words, this Jiannan Jiedu secretly cursed 'little fox' in his heart, but on the surface, he smiled indifferently, "Xiaoyou is polite, you can do it anytime." The old man can still trust Xiaoyou" The reason why he said in the last sentence of his words just now that there is no need to rush to give the thank you gift is actually to remind Lu Chen not to forget this matter. Unexpectedly, this Lu Chen was so cunning that he actually offered to send it over in batches. Jiannan Jiedu envoy believed that it was impossible to transport all the gold before Luzhou City was captured.
The time for negotiations between the two sides was short. When they finished negotiating, they saw that the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu took out a talisman from his cuff again and handed it to Lu Chen, and then said to the door, "Someone!" ”
As soon as the words of the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu fell, he saw two generals immediately come in from outside. After seeing these two people, the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu immediately said, "The two of you will go to the western camp with this Lu Gongzi, and let General Liu He transfer 10,000 soldiers and horses to Lu Gongzi."
Hearing this, the two of them glanced at Lu Chen in some surprise. After all, it's more than 10,000 troops! Even if Jiannan Jiedu makes the family have a great cause, the impact of transferring more than 10,000 soldiers and horses at one time on his power is also very great. Moreover, the 10,000 soldiers and horses led by General Zhang have not yet returned, and now they will send out 10,000 troops. If the forces around them knew about this situation, they would definitely have some other thoughts.
Seeing the worried look on the faces of these two people, the Jiannan Jiedu envoy immediately smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, I have been operating in this Jiannan land for so many years, and I am not as weak as you think." You two just do what I command! ”
Seeing that the Jiannan Jiedu envoy did not have the slightest worry, the two of them immediately saluted the Jiannan Jiedu envoy, and then walked outside with Lu Chen.
After they came out of the mansion of the envoy of Jiannan, they each found a fast horse and ran towards the west of the land of Jiannan. The troops of the Jiannan Jiedu envoy, except for the troops and horses stationed near his mansion, the rest of the troops were stationed at the border of the land of Jiannan. This can not only defend against foreign enemies, but also allow these soldiers to grow up quickly in bloody battles.
After all, actual combat is the best way to train. It's just that this kind of training is somewhat brutal, and every battle is accompanied by the death of a large number of soldiers. However, those soldiers who survive will quickly grow into qualified soldiers after experiencing the baptism of blood.
Lu Chen and the three of them followed the official road, except for eating and sleeping, and they were always galloping towards the west.
After running like this for three days, they finally arrived at the camp of Xidaying on the border with Tibet. The environment here is particularly desolate, and it is precisely because of the sparse population here that the soldiers stationed here have their food and grass transported from the interior.
As soon as Lu Chen and the others came here, they were stopped by the reconnaissance soldiers. After learning that Lu Chen and the three of them were ordered by the Jiedu envoy, these scouts immediately led them towards the tent of the supreme general of the Western Battalion.
After entering the western camp, the three of them passed through multiple lines of defense before they reached the location of the supreme general's tent. After feeling the strict defense here, Lu Chen secretly sighed in his heart: I'm afraid that only such an army can withstand the increasingly powerful Tubo Kingdom.
After bringing the three of them here, the sentries returned to the outside of the camp and continued their rounds.
Lu Chen and the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu glanced at each other, and the two took the lead in walking towards the tent, while Lu Chen followed behind the two. After all, the two of them have met the supreme general here.
When the three of them entered the tent, Lu Chen saw at first glance that in the center of the tent, there was a burly man. Not only is this man burly, but even his appearance is as terrifying as a ghost. If it is an ordinary child, after seeing his appearance, he will definitely be scared to cry.
After seeing Lu Chen and the others, this big man did not have the slightest surprise, because before Lu Chen and the others arrived, the Jiannan Jiedu Envoy had already sent someone to inform him in front. After all, it was to mobilize more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and both he and Jiannan Jiedu were very cautious.
After Lu Chen saw this burly man, he immediately bowed his hand and said, "Under Lu Chen, meet Lord Liu." In the next time I took the liberty of disturbing, it was on the order of the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu, and I came to borrow 10,000 troops from my lord, and asked my lord to agree. This is the talisman given to him by the envoy of Jiedu" After speaking, Lu Chen handed the talisman given to him by Jiannan Jiedu to the burly man.
After the burly man took the talisman, he only glanced at it a few times, and did not look at it too closely. After all, not long ago, Jiannan Jiedu's cronies had already come to inform him.
After hearing Lu Chen's words, a smile appeared on the burly man's face. However, his laughter is even more intimidating, and it is better not to laugh.
