Chapter 40: Turn around
Chapter 40: Turning Around (Next)
The grassland culture has always respected warriors, even if they are mortal enemies of each other in the next moment, as long as the other party shows enough bravery, they will also give corresponding respect. Therefore, several confidant generals did not feel depressed at all when they heard Yue Kuocha'er's reprimand. Instead, he happily agreed, "Yes!" Then they ran down the stairs one after another.
"It's Lu Da who came, Mr. Lu Da, my master has been waiting here for a long time!" After a dozen steps, the generals surrendered to Lu Wen one after another. It's just that in terms of title, it's a little uncertain, and finally it was vague with a sentence from Mr. Luda.
"Mr. don't dare, I was originally a cook, you can just call me Master Lu!" Chef Lu Wen returned the salute with a grin, and then untied the leather bag full of knives from his horse, and threw it to the nearest greeting person, "Thank you, help me carry the guy who eats." I've been using it for years, and I feel uncomfortable everywhere I go without it. β
Even if he didn't take the initiative to hand over the iron tools on his body, the other party would have to find an excuse to leave the skin. At this moment, seeing that he is so willing to cooperate, of course, he will push the boat with the current. Soon, the whole set of knives was carried to the shoulders by Yue Kuocha'er's henchmen, and then he made a gesture with a smile and invited him to hurry upstairs.
"Don't lose it for me, it's all fine steel. When the world is peaceful in the future, I still hope to find food with them! Chef Lu Wen was not at ease, half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"How can it be, the road is big, and Master Lu is humble again. In this world, how can you be missing a bite to eat in the future? The generals were slightly stunned by Lu Wen's words, and shook their heads with a smile.
As the saying goes, it's better to follow the right person than to do the right thing. Although the fat man with a shiny face in front of him came from a humble background, his lord was Zhu Chongjiu. In case Zhu Chongjiu becomes the emperor one day, this person will be the founder of the country as if he were fake. Although it may not have the scenery of Xu Da and Hu Dahai, but after several meritorious deeds, Daru Huachi in the land of the road will not be able to run. How can you rely on your craft to find food again!
Although they didn't agree with Lu Wen's words, several generals felt a lot closer to this person in their hearts. After all, in the hands of his own master, there is nothing more to bargain with except for the hostage of Boyan. And the more easy-going the other party, the less likely it is that they will break down with each other.
Secretly rejoicing, Chef Lu Wen's chubby body has entered the window private room on the second floor. Seeing Boyan who stood up to greet him, his face was happy at first. Immediately, he smiled at Yue Kuo Cha'er, who was following closely by Boyan's side and was waiting for him, "Under the account of the chief manager of Huaiyang, to Captain Lu Wen, see Lord Taiwei!" I have heard for a long time that the Lord is walking in a tiger's step, and his bearing is extraordinary, and when I see it today, it is true! β
"Huh?" Taiwei Yue Kuocha'er was slightly stunned, and the dismount prepared in advance was instantly in vain. "You don't want to spew blood, old man, the old man is grateful for the people in the world, in order for you to send a message to your lord, warn, warn him not to come in vain. It's not for personal life and death! β
As an officialdom tumbler, he understands the meaning of the words "dragon and tiger" too well. There are only two people known as "Dragon Walking Tiger Steps" in history, the former is Liu Yu, Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, who usurped the throne of Emperor Sima Dewen of Jin Gong and ended the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The latter one is Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of the Great Song Dynasty, who usurped the position of Emperor Chai Zongxun of the Later Zhou Dynasty and ended the thriving Later Zhou. And he Yue Kuocha'er is a captain of the Great Yuan, and his protΓ©gΓ©s are all over the forbidden army, and his status is similar to Zhao Kuangyin back then. Today, he met with the leader of the Huai'an army behind his back, and if it spreads, I am afraid that no matter how he kills people and kills people, it will be difficult to clear the suspicion!
Therefore, Yue Kuocha'er couldn't help but let go of many thoughts first, and immediately refuted Lu Wen's false words. It's just that although his words are righteous and strict, they are not convincing to anyone in the slightest. Therefore, Chef Lu Wen didn't argue with him, just smiled slightly, and turned his gaze to Boyan again, "How are you doing?" I didn't suffer any grievances! If someone touches you, try to let the brethren know. Although the lord of our family is beyond the reach of the whip at the moment, but in the future, when he arrives in the capital, he will definitely let those people repay it twice! β
"Thank you Lord Lu for your concern, everything is fine with your subordinates, and Lord Yuekuo Cha'er is very kind to his subordinates. Except for the fact that you are not allowed to go out, everything else is pretty much the same as usual! When Boyan heard this, his heart suddenly warmed. He arched his hand and replied with red eyes.
"That's good!" Lu Wen smiled and nodded, "Your family, the Military Intelligence Department has sent the Yellow River safely." Even if someone pursues it now, it will be completely too late. According to the rules, in the early part of each month, your money will be sent to your home by the Governor's Office, until the youngest child in the family is weak. The standard is now, according to the second lieutenant of the soldier. At the end of the year, depending on the earnings of the firm, there will be a part of the position dividend! β
"Thank you, my lord, thank you to the chief manager, Boyan will never forget!" Boyan, who had already regarded himself as a dead man, felt warm in his heart, raised his hand, and gave Lu Wen a Huai'an military salute that was not standard at all.
If he cooperated with the Huai'an Army in the past, it was just to avenge Totok. From now on, he completely regarded himself as a member of the Huai'an Army. Because as far as he knew, the Great Yuan Dynasty would also regularly place fine works in Huaiyang, Bianliang and other places, and there would also be special funds to buy off the renegades in the Red Turban Army. But the Great Yuan Dynasty has always been very contemptuous of the apostate who was bought. When you can use it, you can use it to death, and if the opponent has no use value, or if the opponent is discovered, you will immediately leave it to fend for itself. As for the future life of his family, he has never paid any attention.
Huai'an Jun, on the other hand, took the initiative to solve the only thing he couldn't let go of in his heart. How much is the deputy lieutenant of the Huai'an Army, Boyan has long known everything. And the dividends given by the Huaiyang Governor's Office to civil and military officials are, as far as he knows, even higher to the point of shocking. It can be said that even if his sons and daughters are not angry, as long as they don't gamble, with the money and dividends given by the governor's office, they will be a rich man for a lifetime. It is absolutely impossible that as soon as he dies, the women and children in the family will become beggars and starve!
"Uh-huh! Master Lu, you are too full of words! As we all know, Huaiyang's current occupation is only half of Henan, Jiangbei, and half of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Together, they are just one province, and it is still too early to dominate the world. Seeing the other party's two major details, he actually explained the aftermath in front of himself, and Yue Kuochaer couldn't bear it. coughed vigorously a few times and reminded in a hoarse voice.
Chef Lowen turned his head and smiled softly at him, revealing a mouth full of white, neat teeth. "Lord Taiwei, don't you think that the heroes still have the strength to compete with my lord in the world? Even if there were, it would be a long time later. And by the beginning of spring next year at the latest, 100,000 elites of my Huai'an army will cross the northern expedition to the north! β
"You" Yue Kuo Cha'er was so angry that his beard trembled again, and his fat palms waved up and down, "Come on, I'll come on, I'll have 300,000 soldiers in Dayuan!" β
"With only 300,000 soldiers, can the Taiwei ensure that the capital is as safe as a rock?" Chef Lu Wen pursed his lips, dismissive of the numbers Yue Kuo Cha'er said. "When I first went to Huai'an, my lord only had 1,000 soldiers and 3,000 auxiliary soldiers. If you go down to Yangzhou, the soldiers and auxiliaries under the command of my lord add up to just over 10,000. In the defense of Huai'an, my general Xu blocked the 300,000 of the Totoku adults with 50,000, and attacked Jiaozhou, and the rate of my lord's office was still 4,000 elites. In addition to going south to crusade against the Pu family, my Huai'an army did not attack the crowd with outnumberedness that time. Another time, didn't you have the last laugh? With only 300,000 horses, I want to stop my 100,000 Huai'an children, Lord Taiwei, it's not Lu Mou who boasts, you are too big! β
"You, you don't want to be strong-tongued, even if you let the horse come!" When the words fell, not only Yue Kuocha'er was hit with anger, but the other generals of the forbidden army were also furious.
"You, you brag!"
"You, you dog eyes look down on people!"
"The surname Lu, believe it or not, everyone will kill you!"
"The surname is Lu, it's a shame that everyone took you as a hero just now! You, you look down on people so much! β
"Whether Lu is bragging or not, you know in your own hearts." Chef Lu Wen came today with the intention of death, so he didn't care about the other party's attitude at all. He smiled and continued to take care of himself: "If you really have the strength to fight, how can Lord Taiwei meet here?" Directly order the troops and horses, block the capital and arrest the key criminals. Anyway, no matter how many people my Huaiyang planted in the capital, I wouldn't be able to stop the forbidden army's full blow! β
The words fell, and the noise around them disappeared. There were only a few extremely heavy breaths left, like pulling bellows, whirring, snorting, one after another.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't see the slightest hope of victory, how could he have taken the initiative to cover up for the opponent without taking advantage of the opportunity to wipe out all the details of the Huai'an army lurking in the capital? If it weren't for the fact that they knew that the Great Yuan Dynasty was coming to an end, how could they, the high-ranking generals with fine clothes and jade food, work with Yue Kuo Cha'er to find a way out for each other? But facts are facts, but words should not be said so hurtfully. After saying it, it is equivalent to instantly making each other no longer have the possibility of covering up the roundabout, and only a naked bargaining path is feasible.
"Lord Taiwei is not a reckless person!" Ignoring the angry appearance of everyone, Chef Lu Wen took a few steps forward, slowly walked to the table, and sat down on his own. Lu also believes that Lord Taiwei made an appointment with Lu not for his own selfishness. In this case, why should everyone make too many tricks and make the other party misunderstand. It's better to be brighter and put everything they can take out and what they want on the table. In this way, it doesn't matter if you ask for a price to repay the money, or if you can't talk about it, it will not be benevolent after all. Maybe there will be room to see each other next time! β
