Chapter XXXVII
"Only 5,000 soldiers and horses?!" Hearing Lu Chen's words, Ye Zhu couldn't help but exclaim, and looked at Lu Chen in surprise, although Liu Heimin is now borrowing the momentum of the Turks, but his soldiers are also tens of thousands, and there are even rumors that Liu Heimin led 100,000 troops to attack Weizhou this time, Lu Chen actually said that as long as Li Xiuning brought 5,000 soldiers and horses to help?
"You don't need Your Highness to go into battle in person, you only need these 5,000 soldiers and horses to protect Your Highness, is it possible that Your Highness will have to go out and show your face casually for tens of thousands of people? What's more, if tens of thousands of people are dispatched, the momentum is huge, and it is not good for the operation! Lu Chen looked at Ye Zhu's surprised appearance and explained with a smile.
In fact, Lu Chen also considered it when he said this, because when Lu Chen was making up for historical knowledge in the base, he saw a person, this person is the key to controlling Liu Heimin's army after killing Liu Heimin, as long as there is this person, then everything will be easy to deal with, and even Li Xiuning can take down Liu Heimin's army without spending a single soldier, and when the time comes, whether the soldiers in this army will continue to be soldiers or go home to farm, they can operate.
"But..."Just as Ye Zhu was about to say something, Li Xiuning directly reached out and intercepted Ye Zhu's words.
"According to what Mr. said, Ye Zhu, let the guards get ready, and wait for the dispatch of the military division at any time, it's not too early, and the palace will go back to rest!" At this time, it was already the end of the first watch of the moon and stars, and the husband outside was about to knock on the second watch, and Li Xiuning couldn't sit here all the time, so he took Ye Zhu and Lu Qiuming back to his mansion.
Lu Chen and the others naturally sent Li Xiuning off, and when Li Xiuning walked away, they turned around and returned to the courtyard, this time without Li Xiuning here, Liu Laosan's father and son were also called to the table by Fang Qi, and several people began to drink and eat.
Lu Chen didn't drink less wine tonight, and when Fang Qi and Meng Ji left with a wine burp, the dog baby Liu Jing helped Lu Chen to the bedroom, and when Lu Chen was settled, he turned around and went out of the house, and cleaned up the scraps on the table with his father.
At three o'clock in the morning, Lu Chen walked out of the room, rubbing his temples while walking, this Du Kang is delicious, but this stamina is a bit big, plus he also drank a lot of imperial wine, the taste of the imperial wine is not much more than Du Kang, this is this degree but much higher than Du Kang, so that Lu Chen has experienced a hangover feeling for a long time.
Suddenly, Lu Chen found that he had nothing to do, because now he was waiting for an opportunity to intercept and kill Liu Heimin, and Liu Heimin had just set off from Cangzhou, Cangzhou was at least seven or eight hundred miles away from Weizhou, tens of thousands of troops were dispatched, and there was no one who could not go in a few days, that was not the future generation, sitting on a high-speed rail plane, swishing speed, people eating horses and feeding, people relying on steps, tens of thousands of people acting together, plus the pioneer battalion, grain and grass transportation, Lu Chen estimated that Liu Heimin would go outside Weizhou, at least about five days.
And Niangzi is more than 400 miles from Weizhou, Lu Chen is with a cavalry team of 50 people, even if a horse runs 200 miles a day, those two days are enough, as for Li Xiuning's army, you can slowly advance after you set off, and wait until you have news, and then enter Weizhou.
As for what to do if Weizhou is attacked by Liu Heimin, Lu Chen also specially asked Li Xiuning last night who the current defender of Weizhou is, and also confirmed that it is indeed the Tian Liuan recorded in the history books, this adult is a helpless person who made Liu Heimin attack for seven days in a row, so Lu Chen is not worried that Weizhou will be lost.
Lu Chen was idle, feeling that he had nothing to do, and then suddenly remembered his white horse, and Lu Chen decided to go to the stable of the barracks to see his white horse.
Lu Chen greeted Liu Jing, and Liu Jing hurriedly ran over: "My lord, what do you command?" ”
"Let's go, follow me to the barracks, and see my big baby!" Lu Chen was holding a folding fan in his hand, this folding fan was found by Lu Chen in a dormitory in the base, today Lu Chen did not wear that training uniform, but put on the blue round-necked Confucian robe sent by Li Xiuning, and pedaled a pair of soap boots.
Lu Chen shook the folding fan in front, Liu Jing followed behind Lu Chen in a small dress, the two swaggered into the barracks one after the other, and as soon as they arrived at the gate of the barracks, Lu Chen was stopped by two soldiers guarding the door.
"Who? This is a forbidden place in the camp, and idlers are not allowed to enter! One of the soldiers pointed his gun at Lu Chen and shouted!
"Yo he! It's kind of interesting! Lu Chen looked at the soldiers who stopped him with approval in his eyes, and being able to stop himself shows that the military discipline is strict, Li Xiuning governs the army well, and not everyone puts them in, which is a good thing.
"You dare to threaten my family with a weapon, have you eaten the heart of a bear and a leopard?" Liu Jing directly dodged in front of Lu Chen, and accused the two soldiers with some inwardness, but his trembling legs still betrayed his somewhat timid mood.
"They're the duty too! Contemptible Lu Chen, I want to go into the camp to see my white horse! Lu Chen shook the folding fan and looked at the two soldiers and said.
"What's the proof?" Although the two soldiers looked at Lu Chen's confident appearance and unusual hairstyle, they were already convinced of eight points, but they still had to verify their positive bodies.
"This..."The soldier's words made Lu Chen embarrassed, those generals knew that he was a military advisor, but these soldiers didn't know, not to mention that the soldiers in charge of guarding the door yesterday were not these two today, which was a little difficult for Lu Chen.
Just when Lu Chen was in danger, he heard someone in the camp in the distance shouting, "Isn't this the military master?" How did you come to the barracks? Are there any new inventions today? ”
Lu Chen followed the prestige, and saw He Panren, who was wearing armor and tall and bearded, looking at him with a smile.
"It turned out to be General He, now someone can prove his identity!" When Lu Chen was embarrassed about how to prove his identity, he saw He Panren, the number one general under Li Xiuning, and Lu Chen was naturally happy.
"Please ask General He to prove it, otherwise these two loyal little brothers will not be placed in the lower gate!" Lu Chen smiled bitterly and beckoned to He Panren.
"Two things with eyes and no beads, even the army division doesn't recognize them, what's the use of waiting?" He Panren walked over quickly, kicked the two soldiers in the buttocks, and directly kicked the two soldiers and staggered.
"General He can't be like this, these two people are also loyal to their duties, in my opinion, they can be commended!" Lu Chen didn't know if He Panren was really angry or fake acting for himself, so he hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him.
