"Brother, you got up so early!"

Set off at two o'clock, and when he first arrived, Lu Changfeng washed himself, and when he came to the courtyard, he saw that his brother was already waiting in the courtyard.

Lu Chengyang turned his head and looked at the third brother and Lin Chen on the side, "Today is the first trip from Hanzhong to Tianshui, I got up early to prepare." Now that everyone is together, let's go. ”

Lu Changfeng and Lin Chen, who originally wanted to slow down, immediately nodded and followed Lu Chengyang to the outside of the city.

When they arrived outside the city, the men of Hanzhong were already waiting in a queue outside the city.

It is obviously not the same momentum and style as yesterday's armor army, they are all dressed in neat brown clothes, which does not look like a military army, nor does it look like a military officer, but it has the momentum of an order and prohibition that only a military member has.

Lu Changfeng looked at Brother A, curious where he found it.

It is said that it is not easy for ordinary people to survive, but it is not easy for nobles to gather manpower. At present, there are more than 100 people, and in just half a year, I don't know where Brother is looking for a good player.

But now is not the time to ask, Lu Changfeng didn't speak, only exchanged glances with Lin Chen, and then went on the road immediately.

This time, there were more merchants from Hanzhong to Tianshui than Lu Changfeng and them, firstly, Hanzhong was more prosperous than Tianshui, and secondly, it was also because of Lu Chengyang's identity as a county magistrate.

Official endorsement, personal escort, who can not trust?

The mighty merchant team set off, and along the way, Lu Chengyang looked serious, which made Lu Changfeng, who wanted to talk to him several times, embarrassed to speak, and finally waited until noon to stop and eat, Lu Changfeng found an opportunity to speak, "Brother, where did you find a good hand?" They don't look like raw melons and eggs, and their discipline is better than that of the officials. ”

Lu Changfeng finally asked, Lu Chengyang shook his head, "This is not something I trained, it was a coincidence, and I will talk about it when I have the opportunity." ”

Obviously, it was inconvenient to say something, Changfeng nodded sensibly and took a sip of herbal tea to moisten his throat.

Lu Chengyang patted his younger brother on the shoulder, did not sit and rest, but inspected along the team, and when he saw that there were really difficult ones, he arranged for the carriage to help, trying to ensure that no one was left behind.

"My lord, it's a little abnormal that the road is quiet, I always feel like there are eyes on us in the dark."

The leader of the escort team came over to discuss countermeasures with Lu Chengyang.

Lu Chengyang thought for a while and said, "Is it possible that there is an illusion that there are our people escorting us secretly, and it stands to reason that there will be no big horse thieves who pose a threat to us." ”

There were nearly two hundred of them guarding here, and if there were no more than a hundred horse thieves, they would not have the courage to appear in front of them.

And if it is a team of hundreds of people, the army that is secretly guarding will definitely find that it will be wiped out before they can get to the merchants.

Lu Chengyang told the truth, and he was also the leader in front of the trust.

The team leader shook his head with a solemn face, "I have always been inspired, and the last time I felt this way, I was targeted by wolves in the territory of the Qiang tribe." In short, the comer is not good. ”

When Lu Chengyang heard this, his face became solemn, but he didn't mess up, but after completing the normal inspection, he came to Lin Chen and Lu Changfeng.

"Someone is tailgating, and it's not good."

Lu Changfeng controlled himself not to turn his head around to check, but Lin Chen was solemn.

"I've got a flare here to lure the covert guards over. But first, I am afraid that they will be entangled and will not be able to pass, and second, when the signal flare is fired, the tail will be exposed, and they will definitely do it. The enemy is in the dark, I am in the light, we don't know how many people they have, this is troublesome. ”

Cheng Yang said his arrangement, and the two discussed countermeasures, "Each of my subordinates is equipped with a thunder shock, if someone comes, they can withstand it, but they are afraid that it is a horse thief, they come on horseback, and Lei Zhenzi can only startle the horse and not hurt anyone." ”

Lin Chen listened, pretended to inadvertently turn his head to check the road conditions, and then said, "There is not even a small forest here, the biggest possibility is that behind the gentle-looking slope in the west, there is a natural cave, but the terrain there is limited, even if there are horses to hide, there will not be many." What I am most afraid of now is that they will use drugs or trade in chaos. ”

At this time, the northwest wind was blowing, and they were not in the downwind outlet, but the poison had to be guarded against.

And the merchants. Why can a weasel drag away chickens that are so much taller and stronger than themselves? It is because the chicken, frightened, instigated its wings and helped the weasel, so that the little skinny weasel could easily take away the chicken many times larger than himself.

At the moment, the merchants are all scared, and have little confidence in their guards. If there were really horse thieves attacking, once the merchants who could have stayed behind the guards safely became chaotic, then there would be no point in them coming out to escort the merchants this time.

The profits handed over by the merchants are a trivial matter, and the key is that the trade route from Hanzhong to Tianshui will be cut off for a period of time, delaying Lu Weimang and Huo Jing's plans.

This is something that cannot be tolerated, even at some cost.

Lu Chengyang pondered for a while, then summoned the guards, "Go and tell the merchant to get up and hurry, don't say anything else." ”

"Whoa!"

The guards told the merchants to get up and hurry, and although they were still tired, the merchants also got up obediently. They go out to make money, but they don't come to rest, they really have to pay attention, and they rest casually after making money from bulk goods.

Everyone got up, and Lu Chengyang came to the guards with Changfeng, seemingly introducing the leader to Changfeng, but in fact he was talking about Thunderbolt.

"Changfeng, you tell the team leader about the precautions for that thunderbolt."

Changfeng also knew the severity, and said with a relaxed expression at the moment, "That Lei Zhenzi was made by Sister A to defend us." When you use it, don't try to lose high, throw far, throw the most important thing, and from throwing to exploding, about a breath of time, if you accidentally throw it to the side, leaning over the ground may be able to protect yourself. If it is powerful, it can blow up a pit half a foot deep. ”

After listening to Changfeng's relaxed description, the team leader's face stiffened slightly, he didn't know that there was this big killer weapon in his arms, if this was put on the rivers and lakes, what kind of martial arts would he practice? A thunderbolt took it.

Is this the fear of explosives no matter how high the martial arts are?

This dangerous thing must not be allowed to get out.

The team leader silently made a decision in his heart.

"Behind you, a mile to the southwest, there is a heave of earth, and if there were any man, it could only be there. After a while, you ask ten people to throw Lei Zhenzi over, and then block the horse thieves who run out first, and the rest of the people are behind you, southwest of the merchants, as a second line, to prevent the horse thieves from breaking through the first human wall and coming and hurting these merchants. ”

Lu Chengyang said this very coldly, it seemed that the life of the merchant was his life, and the life of these guards was not his life, but the team leader still had the same face when he heard it, and nodded, "Oh!" ”

After speaking, he went to pretend to do the inspection, but in fact, he arranged manpower.

After the first team of ten people came out, Lu Chengyang came to Lin Chen's side, "After a while, the thunder shock will explode, and Brother Lin will send a signal." ”

Lin Chen nodded.

Ten people gathered together and marched in one direction, and even those who were slow and hesitant would find that something was wrong, and at that moment, after the dirt bag, they came out of their hands, shouting and shouting and killing.

Ten people lined up and threw out the thunder shock in their hands for the first time, they had a good head in their hands, and basically threw them to the designated place, and the screams rang out for a while.

But obviously there was still this man behind the mound, the first wave of people was bombed, and the second wave of people stepped on the stump of the first wave of people to call for peace to the merchants, and the merchants had already panicked when the thunder shock sounded, and if it weren't for the long knife in the hands of the guards, they would have scattered and fled for their lives.

That's right, Lu Chengyang arranged for a team of people to pull out their long knives, and at the first moment of the riot, they drank the merchants who wanted to flee for their lives, "Whoever runs around will be killed on the spot!" ”

The murderous aura in his words was more terrifying than that of a horse thief, and everyone was in place in shock, not daring to move.

At the same time, the signal flare in Lin Chen's hand was released, resounding in the daytime.
