Chapter 396 [You Know This?]
Chen Daolin was thinking about the origin of the name "Lu Gao", but Lu Gao didn't look at Chen Daolin at all, but turned around to untie the reins of the horse, and glanced at Chen Daolin: "What are you still stunned about?
Chen Daolin's face stiffened, and he smiled bitterly: "That...... Mr. Lu Gao, I still have a lot of things to deal with at home, so my big business has just started, and I am afraid that I will not be able to leave for a while. You see...... If you take me away like that......"
Lu Gao laughed very strangely, and his voice was difficult: "Do you think you have room to refuse?"
Chen Daolin was suddenly choked and speechless, and only exhaled for a long time: "Even if you have to leave...... You'll have to tell me where I'm going, and how long, right?"
"It's hard to say. Lu Gao shook his head: "If it is smooth, maybe one or two months, if it is not smooth, I am afraid of three or five months." But don't worry, it won't take more than half a year at most. ”
Half?
Chen Daolin's face suddenly fell.
Are you kidding!
So many things in the family, the plan for the expansion of the church, the distribution of the teaching fields, and all the measures to buy people's hearts and minds must be presided over by themselves......! Captain Hook was sent by himself to do something important, and he was almost back soon...... What can I do if I'm not at home then?!
Can you say that you can throw away the big stall of more than 10,000 people?
But seeing this Lu Gao, there is no room for negotiation with himself at all. If he objected, he was afraid that he would faint himself again and then forcibly take him away!
Chen Daolin only cared about the anger in his heart, but he didn't notice that when Lu Gao said the sentence "It won't be more than half a year at most", a faint look of relief flashed in his eyes......
"Okay, I don't have the time to talk nonsense with you, so let's go. Lu Gao pointed to the horse beside him: "Do you get on the horse yourself, or will I 'help' you?"
Chen Daolin wanted to cry without tears.
These peerless masters. Do you all fucking like being kidnappers so much?!!!
obediently went up and turned over on the horse......
However, although Lu Gao has a strange temperament, he still made a slight concession after all.
After the two of them rode a horse back on the road, they walked all night in the wilderness, and when it was almost dawn, they came to a small town.
When he arrived in this town, Chen Daolin asked and knew that this was no longer the boundary of Nulin Province. Rather, it has reached the territory of the Tulip family.
What's more, this place is less than twenty miles away from Loulan City, the capital city of the Tulip family.
In this small town, Lu Gao bought two more horses - because the Tulip family has been doing business with the grassland aliens all year round, there is never a shortage of horses in the northwest.
Both of the horses I bought had quite good foot strength. Chen Daolin finally didn't have to ride a horse with this old monster. And Lu Gao also made a concession and agreed to Chen Daolin's request.
Chen Daolin found a mercenary group's garrison in the town - in the territory of the Tulip family, there are dozens of mercenary groups, large and small, it can be said that the territory of the Tulip family is a paradise for mercenary groups to survive in the entire Roland Empire. On the territory of the Tulip family, many large and small towns have mercenary associations stationed in zài. The mercenary industry here is also extremely business-oriented.
Chen Daolin found the location of this mercenary guild, spent a commission fee, and made an entrustment.
The content of the commission is very simple, ask someone to send a letter to your own territory, and hand over the letter to the large and small teams who stay at home.
Chen Daolin found a rest room in the garrison of the mercenary guild, and spent two hours writing a long letter with enthusiasm.
In the letter, he explained that he had an urgent matter to go out for a while. It can be as little as one or two months or as much as half a year. Then he wrote down all the plans he had conceived on horseback last night.
The expansion of the Church, the division of the Church's property, and the exhibition of various industries, etc. After writing it, Chen Daolin read it carefully several times and made some changes to a few details. Then he carefully put the letter away.
He was a magician, and in order to keep it secret, he added a magic mark to the letter, and left a code word on the letter that only Lordel and the others could understand.
As long as the letter is in the hands of Rodelle. This Liszt chick is also magical, and she can open her magic mark - but if the letter falls into someone else's hands, and wants to peek at it, the letter will immediately burn itself.
The reputation of the mercenary guild in the tulip family's territory is very good, and Chen Daolin entrusted the letter to the mercenary guild with confidence. And Lu Gao always stood aside and watched coldly, looking at Chen Daolin's sighing and sad face, this strange man snorted coldly, took out something that seemed to be a gold coin from his arms, and coldly threw it to the person in charge of receiving it in the mercenary guild, and said coldly in a sharp voice: "This matter must be handled properly, if something goes wrong, you know the consequences." ”
The person who received the reception was already very polite to Chen Daolin, but as soon as he saw the gold coin thrown by Lu Gao, his face suddenly changed drastically, and his originally polite attitude was immediately ten times more respectful!
Chen Daolin's eyes were sharp, and he saw that there seemed to be a tulip pattern on the gold coin......
"Look at what. Lu Gao said coldly: "This is the thing that the tulip kid gave me back then, in the northwest, you can walk sideways with this thing, these people from the mercenary guild are eating with the tulip family's face, showing this thing, they will never dare to neglect your commission, let alone make a fork - okay, now you can rest assured!"
Chen Daolin let out a sigh, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "Thank you." ”
"Hmph, I hate you most of all. Lu Gao shook his head: "You were forcibly brought by me, and you said thank me on your lips, but you may not know how to scold me in your heart." ”
Chen Daolin's nose is not a nose and his eyes are not eyes, and he just couldn't help but think in his heart: This guy is simply a dog temper, how did this kind of weird old monster survive to this day?
After resting in the town for a long time, the two returned to the road and left.
Chen Daolin couldn't help but ask a few times along the way, where Lu Gao was going to take him and what he was going to do.
Kelugao has an eccentric temperament. But it seemed to be impatient, Chen Daolin asked seven or eight sentences, this guy only replied three or five words, if Chen Daolin asked too much, this old monster pointed at it, Chen Daolin had to become dumb, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
After a few times. Chen Daolin simply didn't ask.
Anyway, this guy is said to have been commissioned by Du Wei, so ...... I got a gift from Du Wei, so I think this guy won't hurt himself.
But what happened next was completely unexpected by Chen Daolin!
After Lu Gao and Chen Daolin left the town, the degree of hurried road slowed down completely!
The two rode unhurriedly. But he went directly to Loulan City, the base camp of the Tulip family!
In the evening, the outline of Loulan City had already appeared in the field of vision.
This is the most prosperous city in the northwest, but the city walls are not as tall and majestic as imagined.
Although it was also built according to the standard city of the empire, it seems that the walls were far less tall than the imperial capital.
But Chen Daolin only glanced at it twice, and he saw a little difference!
The walls of this Loulan city. It is not a circular castle building like most of the castles of the Roland Empire. Instead, the structure of the standard bastion was adopted!
Chen Daolin knew very well that this kind of fortress structure was the pinnacle of military fortification exhibitions in the era of cold weapon warfare! In the real world, even at the beginning of the Rewu era, the wall system of this prismatic fortress could still play a strong defensive role!
Arguably. The structure of the fortress is a masterpiece of the pinnacle of military defense in cold weapon warfare!
Chen Daolin didn't even have to think about it to determine that the structure of this kind of fortress must have been made by Du Wei at the beginning.
For his own base camp, that Du Wei really put a lot of thought into it!
A fortress is a type of ancient fortress, the essence of which is to change the fortress from a convex polygon to a concave polygon. This improvement makes it possible to attack any point in the castle so that the attacker will be exposed to a fortress surface, and the attacker will be counterattacked by crossfire from several sides at the same time. Greatly increases the difficulty of attacking!
Chen Daolin sat on his horse. Carefully looking at the city defense system of this Loulan City, the more he looked at it, the more he was distracted, and in the end, he didn't even hear the voice of Lu Gao shouting at him.
"Look stupid?" Lu Gao snorted coldly, and finally woke up Chen Daolin, and heard Lu Gao say coldly: "You also know the beauty of this city defense?"
Chen Daolin was at the mercy of this guy along the way, and he had already held back the fire in his heart, and when he heard this, he said loudly: "Why don't I understand? Hmph! Isn't it just a fortress? Make a lot of concave defense lines, if someone attacks, they will be counterattacked by two or three sides...... Hmph!"
"Huh?" Lu Gao's eyes seemed to light up: "You actually know some military strategy?"
Chen Daolin smiled proudly, looking at Lu Gao's surprised expression, his self-esteem that he had been holding back for many days, and sneered proudly: "Isn't it just a fortress......?" It's a good thing, but it's not that hard to break it!"
"Oh?"
At this time, Lu Gao really had a strong curiosity: "You actually have a way to break through this kind of fortress?"
"Of course. Chen Daolin rolled his eyes.
After this kind of fortress was revealed in the real world, it once played a magical and powerful role in the wars of the early days of the cold weapons and gunpowder age. The strong defensive strength of the fortress has increased the ratio of forces between the defending side and the attacking side by three to five times compared with the era before the Ming Dynasty! That is to say, after the Ming Dynasty, if the new defense system of the fortress is to be conquered, it will take three to five times more troops than before! Generally speaking, it is difficult for the attacking side to afford this kind of loss ratio.
Lu Gao's expression became a little strange!
He looked at Chen Daolin, and then at the wall of Loulan City in the distance......
After a while, Lu Gao suddenly shouted, kicked the horse's stomach hard, sped up, and the two of them headed towards Loulan City!
Loulan City in the evening, really worthy of being the first prosperous Xiongcheng in the northwest, the flow of people at the city gate is still endless, there are still a lot of caravans transporting vehicles and horses coming and going, after entering the city, you can see all kinds of shops on the left and right sides of the street, there are many kinds of doors from south to north, and the sky is obviously almost dark, but there are still a lot of pedestrians on the street.
Chen Daolin couldn't help but make a comparison between Loulan City and Mulan City. It is also a provincial-scale prefecture city, but Mulan City, the capital of Nulin Province, if it is this time of day, there are almost no pedestrians on the streets.
Lu Gao didn't seem to know what his temperament was, so he directly took Chen Daolin into the city, walked through a few streets, came to a large hotel, dismounted and threw the horse to the servant at the door, and then Lu Gao threw out a gold coin and threw it directly into the hands of a guy who came out to greet guests: "Two big rooms! Quick!
The hotel servant, who welcomed the guests, was full of joy, and soon led the two of them into the store and went upstairs, and opened two large rooms for them in the innermost part of a corridor on the second floor.
Chen Daolin couldn't help but smile when he entered the room. The rooms in the hotel in Lancheng are actually similar to the layout of the hotel rooms in the real world - this could not be the influence of Du Wei back then.
But Lu Gao seemed to be very impatient, and after the servant left, he pressed Chen Daolin to the table and sat down.
Then this guy grabbed a few pieces of paper and pen directly from the table, glared at him, and shouted: "Boy! You said on the way that you have a way to conquer this kind of fortress? Tell me your method! If you talk nonsense, I will definitely clean you up!"
Hey?
Chen Daolin was stunned, but he didn't expect that this strange master named Lu Gao was so interested in something like a fortress?
Although the fortress was a very powerful military defense system in the early days of cold weapons and gunpowder, it ...... In front of a perverted master like you Lugao, it's nothing.
Even in the powerful fortress, you can't stop the Holy Rank master!
But why, this Lu Gao's expression was as if he had been poked at the G-spot? Could it be that this saint-level master had also suffered the loss of the fortress?
It's impossible......
Chen Daolin thought suspiciously in his heart, but he didn't know that his guess was infinitely close to the truth......
Lu Gao ...... I've really suffered the loss of the fortress!
To be precise, it was the guy who ate the bastion in this world - the first Duke of Tulip, Du Wei's loss!
Big loss!
"What are you doing!!!" Lu Gao snorted impatiently, his voice clearly filled with anger.
