At this moment, a large group of torches from the direction of Tiantai City came over quickly, and everyone understood that it was Lu An who led the reinforcements to arrive. The troops rushed over with a shout, but Lu An ran over: "Lingwu, Lingwu, is it Lingwu?" Someone quickly picked up Lu An: "My lord, something big happened, we can't make up our minds, come and see." Looking at the guards who fell to the ground, Lu An carefully duanxiang took the arrow in his hand, under the reflection of the torch, his eyes were round, and his hands were trembling: "Which bastard wants to harm the little master?" "No one answered him, because no one could answer him, and none of the guards dared to answer.

Although the enemy came over with thirty or forty thousand people, it was much worse than the elite brought by Zhao Wu, not to mention that there were many warriors around Zhao Wu. Zhao Wu blocked the bridge, and the people on the other side couldn't pass, so there was no way to reinforce it. After a bloody battle, Zhao Wu's men gradually gained the upper hand, and although the rioting slaves fought desperately, more than half of them were killed or wounded.

The enemy on the other side of the river, seeing that the general situation was gone, had no choice but to abandon the soldiers on this side and began to retreat. Several fighters from Zhao Wu's side rushed up and set fire to the bridge, and the pontoon bridge immediately burst into flames. The slaves on this side of the river were surrounded, some jumped into the river and tried to swim desperately, and some scattered and jumped, and countless were hacked to death and drowned.

The remaining about seven or eight thousand men were surrounded in the middle, surrounded by an army of nearly 30,000 men with bows and arrows, and at the slightest order, all of them would have perished. I saw a person running out of the team, it was Lu An, and said loudly: "Report to the lord of the mansion, the enemy has been surrounded, how to deal with it, please give an order." Zhao Wuluo groaned and spit out one word: kill. Lu An got the order, turned around, and gave the order loudly: "Prepare the bow and arrow, the general has an order." Seeing that seven or eight thousand lives were about to be killed, Lingwu's voice came from behind: "Slow, Lu An will leave people under the arrow." ”

Lingwu hurriedly ran to Zhao Wu: "Father, spare their lives, they have seven or eight thousand lives, and my son doesn't want them to die." ”

"Lingwu, these slaves rebelled, they deserve death, you don't have to pity them. They must wash away their sins with blood. ”

"Father, spare them. They have no strength to resist, so give them to me as slaves. ”

Lingwu always remembered the story of Xia Yu's family, remembered the scene of the samurai killing their family, and couldn't help but pity these slaves.

Zhao Wu looked at his son, and his heart suddenly softened: "It's okay to reward you, but I'm afraid that these things will be disobedient." Alright then, let these people lay down their arms and surrender and spare their lives. Those who dare to resist will be killed. ”

Lu An shouted loudly: "Listen, slaves rebel and deserve death. But my little master has pity on you, and is willing to take you in, spare you from death, and lay down your arms and surrender at once. Those who dare to resist will be killed. ”

The night finally returned to calm, the east gate was full of killings, the enemy thought that the east gate had succeeded, and only charged a few times in the south, and the battle of the south bridge was already over. Watching the captives tied to the long rope walk in front of him one by one, Zhao Wu said in his heart that it was so dangerous. If Lingwu hadn't come to report in a hurry, if the rioting slaves had come over with a hundred and eighty thousand, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Even if you defend Tiantai City, you will have to lose tens of thousands of soldiers. At that time, he really became the commander of the light pole.

From then on, Lingwu would have to inspect the river every evening, and even cross the other bank. No matter where the enemy went to prepare to cross the river, within a day at most, the Fumian army would arrive in large numbers and stay on the bank. The enemy had nothing to do, and the two sides could not hold each other on the Zishui line, and there was no fighting on the front line for many days.

Zhao Wu had been anxious about the military situation, and only then did he remember how could this Lingwu know that there was an enemy crossing the Zishui River? It's at least five or six kilometers away from Tiantai City, and he said he can detect it?

"Lingwu, let me ask you, can you really detect this place with your spiritual power?"

"yes, Dad, you don't believe it."

"Believe, how can you not believe? Of course my son can do it, and you will definitely be able to become a spiritual monk in the future. This time, you have made a great contribution" Zhao Wu looked at the young child, and the indescribable love in his heart, a few days ago, he was still a demon king who killed people without blinking, but at this moment he became extremely loving.

Lu An has been standing next to him, and when he saw the father and son talking, he didn't interject. It wasn't until the end that he stepped forward and knelt on the ground with a plop: "Lu An is guilty of capital crimes, please punish him." ”

"What sin are you guilty of? If you hadn't brought someone in there a few days ago, I don't know what the result would have been. You have done a meritorious service, and I will reward you. ”

"The little ones dare not ask for a reward, but only ask the adults to punish them."

"How so? You're putting Lingwu aside, isn't there no way to do it? Besides, you've arranged for a lot of people to protect him, it's okay, you can get up."

"Lu An didn't dare to get up, there was something for adults to tell him."

Lu An told the story of the poisonous arrow assassination of Lingwu on the battlefield one by one, and did not let go of every detail: "What the villain said is true, and the little master's guards and the little master can prove it." The villain is not well protected, please punish the adult. ”

Zhao Wutie's face was blue, he flipped over and over to check the arrow, and finally punched the table, and the flying sawdust revealed the extreme anger in his heart.

"Lu An, don't make a public announcement about this matter. From today onwards, you don't care about anything else, and you're in charge of the defense of Lingwu. You go to He Jian and select the strong warriors to form the Lingwu guard. You two have to do your best, I, Zhao Wu, am the only seedling, and I can't miss it again. If something really happened to Lingwu this time, how would I explain it to her mother? How to go to see the ancestors and fathers. ”

After speaking, Zhao Wu didn't say a word, and fell into deep self-blame, he knew in his heart: The people and horses he brought were all the children of the Zhao family and the slaves who had followed him for many years, who did it and what he didn't understand. Who would use poisonous arrows on the battlefield, such arrows are not something that can be made at once, it seems that some people are afraid that they have been premeditated for a long time. Zhao Wu remembered an incident that happened when his son was one year old, when a slave girl holding Lingwu fell from a height, fortunately she was blocked by a tree, and finally fell into the water tank below. I was so angry that I killed all six female slaves, and now that I think about it, most of those female slaves may have been wronged.

Lu An was ordered to come to He Jian's camp, and when he heard that the most elite warriors were to be selected to protect Lingwu, He Jian was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "What happened?" Lu An told him about what had happened, and repeatedly warned him not to tell others. He Jian understood the importance of this matter, and solemnly said to Lu An: "You and I are both adults and sons-in-law, like brothers. A few years ago, adults had no children, and some of the nephews of adults wanted to inherit their father-in-law's family business, and they were always worried that we would get in the way. Now that adults have their own sons, some people must regard them as a thorn in their side. Lu An, our brothers must protect Lingwu, otherwise you and my brother will die without a place to be buried. I think Lingwu is also very human, and his future interest is immeasurable, so he should not be in a house or a place, and follow him well. My father-in-law treats us like right-hand men, and we should share our worries as adults and keep Lingwu growing up safely. I'm just worried, Lingwu talent is extremely abnormal, what will his path be like? I'm afraid his path will not be easy. There are not many people you want to choose, one must be loyal, the second must be careful, and the third must be good in martial arts. You can choose whatever you like here. ”

Lu An screened one by one, and finally picked out a hundred people, and selected more than 400 people from the original Lingwu guards, forming a guard of about 500 people. When he took these people to find Lingwu, he heard that Lingwu had gone to the prisoner camp.
