After walking for about five miles, Lingwu came to a recruiting point. Shi Zhuang arranged more than a dozen soldiers here, writing the word "recruitment" crookedly, surrounded by some people in twos and threes, and a few stone locks and other things on the ground.

When Lingwu looked at it, he was so angry in his heart. I thought to myself, if you go to the slave camp, you can just take it away. Running here to make a banner, there are no people, how can you recruit people.

"What are you doing here? You can't see ghosts here, can you recruit people? Why don't you go to a slave camp? Lingwu burst into flames and couldn't help but reprimand.

The soldiers had seen Lingwu, and no one dared to answer, just bowed their heads and remained silent. At this time, Shi Zhuang got the news and ran over, and hurriedly saluted Lingwu: "Tell the master, Shi Zhuang has seen the adult." ”

"I told you to recruit troops, and you're good to set up a stall here. What do you say you're doing? Why don't you go to the slave camps? ”

Shi Zhuang saw that his voice was violent, his frightened face changed, and he hurriedly knelt down on one leg and said, "Lord Qiqi, we also went there at first, but then we didn't dare to go." I had to write a signboard here and shout everywhere. ”

"Don't dare to go? Are there places you dare not go? ”

"My lord, I really don't dare to go." Shi Yong saw that Shi Zhuang didn't dare to answer at all, so he had to relieve the siege on the side: "My lord doesn't know, a few days ago, the brothers went to the slave camp to recruit and let others beat them out, and some brothers were injured, so they didn't dare to go anymore. ”

"Beaten? Who is so bold? Dare to fight my soldiers. Are your knives made of flour? ”

"My lord, we are not afraid of death on the battlefield. But they are from the Gangneung Mansion Lord's Mansion, where do we dare to use knives with them? ”

"It's someone from the house?"

"Yes, the villain doesn't dare to talk nonsense. The people in the house said that too many men in Gangneung Mansion died during the Southern Expedition, and now Gangneung even has mosquitoes flying around, so where are there any males. We have to take away even the children now, and they will not become a widow's camp here, and I am afraid that the hens will not lay eggs in the future, and they will not be able to live. In the past, the people brought by the master also wanted to farm and eat, but if the male slaves were taken from them, they resolutely refused to agree. Even if the master comes in person, he won't drive them to a dead end! ”

Lingwu was speechless when he heard this, thinking that what he said made sense. It seems that Mr. Lin still has some problems with this method, and he has to talk to him, so he can't let his aunt's family get by.

However, he now brought 20,000 men from Gangneung, plus 10,000 in Jiachuan, and 5,000 of his own guards, for a total of only 35,000. If there is a large Gangneung Mansion, how can this little force be done? Which of the other provinces is not more than 100,000 or 200,000, once something happens, where can they defend it. What's more, it is impossible for all of these people to be stationed in Gangneung,

Thinking of these Lingwu, I couldn't help but feel upset, and the excitement and joy just now were all gone. He walked back with a black face, and Shi Zhuang followed behind and asked, "My lord, what's going on with this?" Lingwu ignored him and just walked. Shi Zhuang opened his mouth to ask, but was pulled by Shi Yong, and his eyes were strained to make his eyes look hard, and Shi Zhuang's words had to be swallowed back when he came to his mouth.

Lingwu returned to the mansion and thought carefully for a while, but he didn't have any good ideas. Considering that Chief Lin and General Wei have also set off for nearly a month, I don't know what the situation in Changzhou Territory is now. He thought it would be better to investigate the situation on the border himself, and then contact Chief Lin.

The sun was about to set in the western sky, the looming moon had risen in the east, the front hall of the mansion was very quiet, and the huge ginkgo tree stretched out its bare branches to tell its boredom. Lingwu sat quietly in the lounge on the side of the main hall, his mind had flown far away, and he saw that the team led by Wei Qingsong was about to arrive at Changzhou City. However, Lingwu did not stop, but went directly to the east.

The farthest Cheung Chau Territory to the east of Gangneung Province is connected to the border of Xingshan Territory of Yiling Province, where a small river flows into the Dalong River from the south, separating Cheung Chau Territory and Xingshan Territory, forming a natural border between the two provinces. Further east, you will reach the border of Yiling Province, where the mountains are towering and stretching. If there is divine help in this place, the mountains will be cut into north and south with the magical power of nature, and the river will rush and roar in the canyon, meandering forward, out of the boundary of Liangzhou, and will not be under the jurisdiction of King Liang.

Lingwu walked all the way from north to south along the boundary perfume river, and found no abnormalities in the Changzhou territory. It was only two hundred miles away from the Changzhou Territory and into the Xiangnan Territory in the south, and Lingwu discovered a team with a suspicious situation.

Xiangnan Ling is part of Gangneung Province and has long been controlled by the powerful Zhou family. The head of the Zhou family is also a very powerful figure in the lord level, and the martial arts cultivation at the peak of the great warrior, the Zhou family is a one-handed cover in the local area. It's just that Zhang Rulong's strength is there, plus he is the eldest son of the master's mansion, Zhou Jiaming doesn't dare not listen to it, and he has been safe for decades. Lingwu had just come to Jiangling, and he had never been in contact with the people of the Zhou family, but he always felt that this group of people was abnormal.

It stands to reason that most of the soldiers of the Zhou family have arrived at the front line of the Southern Expedition, and now they are very limited. But this team is no less than 30,000 men and horses, and the soldiers are strong and strong, not ordinary lords. What's more, after being hit hard, Xiangnan Ling definitely does not have such a strong force.

Lingwu's mind flashed with inspiration, and he couldn't help but think of the robbery of the Changzhou Territory a few days ago, and wondered if these people would be the same people who robbed the Changzhou Territory last time? He decided to find out what was going on with the team, so he locked them down. Lingwu kept searching among these people, looking for those who were powerful. Different people have different strengths, and their influence on the surrounding aura is also different, and the spiritual power is the most sensitive to the aura, and Lingwu quickly discovered that there is a great warrior-level figure in the team based on these things, and he should be the leader of this team.

I heard this person shouting loudly: "Hurry up with Lao Tzu, now we have entered the territory of Xiangnan, and there are still five hundred miles away from Xiangnan City." Run fast for me, those noble ladies and slaves of Xiangnan are waiting for us. The last time I went to Changzhou, Lao Tzu didn't give you any less slaves afterwards, and you have been happy for a long time after returning to Xingshan City one by one, and it's time to give Lao Tzu strength. The foundation of the Zhou family is much better than that of the Qin family, and this time we have to take a good profit. ”

"Lord Lord, last time we robbed the Qin family, and this time we robbed the Zhou family in Xiangnan. These two are the territory of Gangneung Mansion, if you let the Master's Mansion know, will it cause trouble? ”

"You know a fart, you tofu brain, you only know how to play with slave girls, and you can the master's mansion. The master has died a long time ago, and now that master's mansion is a fart, if it weren't for the Hou Ye to protect him, the third young master would have even taken the territory for him, where are we only allowed to rob his slaves. This time, I brought out all the men who could run, and you should be quick with your hands and feet, and take away everything you can get back, so as not to make a second trip. ”

"Yes, Lord Lord, don't worry, the little ones will definitely not be soft. The minions must choose the most beautiful female slave to send to the adults, and the keepers are happy and comfortable. Hey! ”

There is no doubt that this is the person of Xingshan Ling, and it was sent out to loot. What to do? Now it's too late to inform the Zhou family to take precautions, if you contact the Zhou family directly, the situation that you are a great spirit priest cannot be kept secret. This is what Hou Ye has repeatedly admonished, and Mr. Lin and his second uncle have also repeatedly advised, and they will never let the outside world know unless they have to. Forget it, let's contact General Manager Lin first, where they are not far away now, to see if he and General Wei have a good way.
