Chapter 67: Deliberately embarrassed Lingfeng
In the early morning, on the streets of Beijing, the first snow of winter was ushered in.
Escorted by two columns of soldiers, Lu An and other fifty-two men and women from the Light Smoke Pavilion walked out of the city in the face of the snowflakes.
On the streets on both sides, people stopped to watch, and from time to time whispered and discussed.
"Young master, where is the masterβ"
Following the direction of Xiao Qingzi's finger, Lu An saw Lu Mancang not far away, and was looking at him with concern.
It's a pity that the father and son were separated by the escort soldiers, and they were not allowed to say even a word.
Seeing the old man's anxious look, Lu Anxin felt a burst of warmth, straightened his waist as much as possible, and pointed to Mu Lingfeng beside him with a smile, reassuring him.
"Don't worry, Uncle Lu already knows that I have found a helper."
If you want to say that the most peaceful mood in the whole team, there is only this sky-high beauty bodyguard.
As for the others, they were already panicked, and when they heard the various chatters coming from the street from time to time, their faces became more and more pale.
Outside the city, Lei Jin, the commander of the army, had already gathered all his soldiers and horses.
The army of 50,000 was neat and tidy, stretching without any edge.
However, as soon as Lu An and the others left the city, they immediately attracted countless eyes.
"Wow! It's beautiful! β
"I heard that these girls are from the Light Smoke Pavilion, and they used to be unattainable officials and lords, so I didn't expect that we would be able to enjoy a high standard this time!"
"Two years ago, Lao Tzu went south with the army to quell the rebellion, and the level of prostitutes in the military camp was much worse than them, this time...... Hey. β
"It's still our General Lei who has the face, and he actually brought such a high-end product over."
In the midst of the discussion, the girls of the Light Smoke Pavilion trembled even more, and while walking to the back of the team, they involuntarily gathered around Lu An.
On the stage, Lei Jin's face immediately sank when he saw this.
Originally, he was dissatisfied with the practice of prostitution in the military camp, but now when he saw the reaction of the soldiers, he was even more angry!
"Silence!"
"If there is anyone who dares to make a noise, he will be killed!"
This loud shout suddenly had an effect.
Lei Jin glanced coldly in the direction of Lu An and the others, and shouted loudly: "The Turks have invaded the northern border, and His Royal Highness King Sui has led troops to resist for more than half a month, and is in urgent need of support. β
"In this northern expedition, General Ben has made a military order, only succeed, not failure!"
"You are all the elite of Great Xia, don't be said to be right, it's ridiculous and dignified, not as good as a woman in Qinglou!"
Hearing the last sentence, countless soldiers looked at Lu An and the others in unison.
Even the person who whispered and ridiculed just now had a fierce light in his eyes at this moment.
The words that mocked them came from the Light Smoke Pavilion!
Lei Jin's last sentence instantly aroused the blood of all the soldiers, which was exactly what he needed.
On the stage, Lei Jin turned around and clenched his fists.
"Second Highness, please speak!"
Xia Chun smiled indifferently, his eyes swept over Lu An in the distance, and there was no fluctuation.
A dying man doesn't deserve his attention anymore.
"This king has been ordered to come and march for General Lei and all the soldiers.
The soldiers and civilians of Suizhou are waiting for your rescue, and this king wishes all the soldiers and horses success, repel the barbarian slaves as soon as possible, and return to the division in triumph! β
"I beg Your Highness Second to tell Your Majesty that we will definitely live up to our mission!"
Lei Jin faced the audience again, and ordered in a deep voice, "Pioneer Zhao Gang, lead five thousand light horsemen, day and night, rush to Suizhou first, meet with His Royal Highness King Sui, and find an opportunity to break the enemy!" β
"Deputy General Cao Yong is the front army, the general is in the center, and Luo Ming is behind."
"The whole army is marching urgently, within twenty days, be sure to arrive as scheduled, and those who delay the military situation will be beheaded immediately!"
"Let's go!"
At the sound of an order, the army finally left the capital and headed north against the wind.
The group of Light Smoke Pavilion was sandwiched in the middle of the line.
A journey of thousands of miles, arrived within twenty days, such a marching speed in winter was fine for a well-trained ordinary soldier, but the group of Qingyan Pavilion suffered a lot.
At first, everyone could barely do it, but then, except for those tricksters, the rest of the girls gradually became overwhelmed, and their faces were pale and panting.
"Quick!"
Lei Jin rode a war horse back and forth urging the team, and when he arrived near Lu An and the others, his face suddenly turned cold.
Waving a horse whip and pointing at Lu An, "You are in charge of the prostitutes in the military camp, if the speed of the march is affected by the others, this general will ask you!" β
The voice is full of color, and the murderous intent in his eyes is undisguised.
Lu Anxin was bitter, but he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, so he could only support himself while urging everyone from time to time.
But where did the girls of the Light Smoke Pavilion suffer like this!
For a long time, these girls have been playing the piano and dancing, ushering in and sending off, and I am afraid that they have not walked as much as this day in a year, how can they be compared with well-trained soldiers?
Although Lu An's throat was about to burst, in the evening, they still opened a distance of nearly two miles from the team in front.
Even so, among the fifty-two people, even the Raksi were so tired that they couldn't breathe, let alone the girls.
Finally it was time to camp, and Lu An had just set up the camp with his people, when he saw Lei Jin rushing to the front with people.
"Someone! Take him down! β
Before Lu An could react, he was already pressed to the ground by two soldiers.
"General! What do you mean? β
Seeing this, Mu Lingfeng immediately asked in a deep voice, and the others in the Light Smoke Pavilion also followed.
"Humph!" Lei Jin snorted coldly, "With the military camp prostitutes affecting the speed of the march, Lu An, as the leader of the camp prostitutes, should be punished!"
This general remembers his first offense, so that he will not be beheaded, and first beat twenty military sticks to set an example!
Call me! β
"Wait!" Mu Lingfeng opened his mouth again and stopped, and pointed to the girls around him, "Many of these girls have never even been out of the capital, and their bodies are delicate, how can they be compared to ordinary soldiers!"
Isn't it too much for the general to ask for this? β
After Mu Lingfeng finished speaking, the girls around him also echoed.
"Yes, General, the weather is already cold now, and it seems a bit difficult for us women to march in the same hurry as soldiers, right?"
"I hope the general will have mercy on us people, and don't punish An Shao because of this!"
"Shut up!" Lei Jin shouted violently, his expression cold.
"Military orders are like mountains, no matter who they are, as long as they are under the jurisdiction of this general, they will be treated equally!
Those who dare to make noise again will be guilty of the same crime as Lu An! β
"Good!" Mu Lingfeng walked up to Lu An and said in a deep voice, "Since the general must be punished, I am willing to be punished on his behalf!" β
What!
Everyone in the Light Smoke Pavilion, including the soldiers brought by Lei Jin, were all stunned.
Lei Jin didn't expect that the seemingly delicate woman in front of him would dare to stand up for Lu An, and immediately smiled coldly.
"General Ben is not a man who cherishes flowers.
Since you want to be a hero, then good, General Ben will fulfill you!
Come!
Take her down and take responsibility on the spot! β
The two soldiers let go of Lu An, looked at Mu Lingfeng again, and flashed a trace of hesitation.
After all, it is inevitably a little unbearable for them to blame a delicate woman like a man.
Lei Jin sighed, "This is her willingness!"
If General Ben finds out that you are releasing water, you will lead the battle like her! β
"The subordinates don't dare!"
The two soldiers gritted their teeth, and immediately pressed Mu Lingfeng down and waved their military sticks.
