"Master Wanfu, the crows are still following, just behind the mountain. ”

In a makeshift camp, a Shengdi sentinel knelt on the ground and prayed to Lao Dongran.

"It's ghostly!"

Lao Dongran cursed hatefully, put the jerky and cheese in his hand on the ground, stood up and looked south.

The mountainous peaks and lush trees obscured his vision, and he couldn't see the annoying black cloaks.

This group of black crows is no more than a hundred people at most, it is the gang of thieves that Lao Dongran was ordered to hunt and kill, and after chasing and lost, they somehow fell behind the Di Cavalry Brigade, and after Lao Dongran led the army to retreat, they had the audacity to stick up.

After confirming that there were no other pursuers, the angry old Dongran returned to the army to fight back, and laid foolproof traps and ambushes several times, but these black crows who only dared to sneak attack did not take the bait once.

After that, Lao Dongran was shocked, the other party was extremely familiar with this mountain forest, and there must be a master scout with extremely keen spiritual sense.

Although he didn't find the breath of a master of the same level, but he could hide from him, a grandmaster general, could only be a master of the inspiration realm, and now Lao Dongran was seriously injured, and if he had to fight hard, it would be difficult to guarantee that he would not be slaughtered.

In desperation, Lao Dongran had no choice but to gather his team, leaving only a few elite scouts in a group to cover the surroundings, even so, dozens of people would still be attacked and killed every day, and many of them could not even find their bodies.

Lao Dongran calmed down, knowing that the injury made his will a little weak and drowsy, and he lost his usual calm and composure, and it was extremely dangerous to go on like this.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his chest, and finally decided to break his tail again to survive.

A force of five hundred men was left behind, an hour later than the remaining brigade of less than two thousand.

In Lao Dongran's mind, the other party will definitely suspect fraud, and will only be cautious and cautious at first, even if there is really a grandmaster in the black crow, when he finally reacts and eats these five hundred people, it will waste a lot of time, and the team of Di Qi can take the opportunity to escape and leave this mountain forest that has swallowed too much Di people's flesh and blood.

Once back on the unsheltered grassland, even the Grandmaster would not dare to easily attack the team of nearly two thousand cavalry.

It is really helpless to leave these 500 people, in fact, if the troops are not divided, the losses may not add up to 500 people when they get out of the mountain, but in fact this is not the case, and the bearing capacity of the soldiers must be taken into account.

If the soldiers have a fear of the mountains and forests, it is very easy to break up, and at that time, only God knows how many people will get out alive.

On a mountain peak not too far from Lao Dongran, Liu Tugou squatted under the mountain rock, holding a roasted wild boar trotter and gnawing on his mouth full of oil.

"Second brother, the Di people have divided their troops, and the five hundred people behind the palace are an hour away from the brigade on the mountain road, which is clearly fishing. ”

He changed his words, and he couldn't tell whether he was resentful or envious in his tone: "These Di people are really elite soldiers, and at this time, there will still be five hundred people willing to die." ”

"It is not necessary to be willing to die, but it is true that the order is forbidden. ”

Yang Xiongji's words made Liu Tugou grin, and he turned his head to look at the young man beside him: "Dongjiang, what do you think, should we take the bait?"

The originally thin and shy young man now has a little more fierce spirit, and when he heard this, he shook his head without hesitation and said, "It's not cost-effective." ”

"My lord, I dare to say a word, I can't do it because of the battle of will, and I have exhausted my capital with these Di people who are bent on fleeing for their lives. At this time, you should go back and look at the wind, so as not to be blinded. ”

It was Fu Yangguan who spoke, except for always saying goodbye to Xu Dongjiang intentionally or unintentionally, this down-and-out show who had been a sheepherd was an extremely rational person.

Liu Tugou smiled: "Are you referring to Ren Xichou's plan? This person's mind is very unpredictable, Sang Yuan, tell me about it?"

This Sansh chief's mind is also unpredictable, Liu Tugou loves his talents, and never shows any distrust of him, but he himself is always on the edge of the inner circle of the Fourth Banner.

Sang Yuan was stunned when he heard this, bowed his head and said: "I did see it from a distance that day, the north gate of the first Dengzhai was broken, it can be seen that the fight was extremely fierce, and the meaning of Ren Baiqi Commander was to take the opportunity to force the palace and push the adult up, and with the ability of the adult, he would never be just a puppet." He also said that he wanted something that adults knew in their hearts. As for the rest, they dare not speak in vain. ”

Liu Tugou groaned slightly, looked up at the subordinates who were standing or sitting, with different expressions and thoughts, and said: "Then you can't go back empty-handed, the right lieutenant of the Lu family has exchanged the life of a half-step inspiration master." ”

"Xu Dongjiang and Cao Chunfu, do you dare to take down the head of Captain Di Wan?"

"I am willing to die for my lords!"

"Okay, take your men with me. Yang Xiongji, you go to the meeting with Dong Dilang, take the rest of the brothers and swallow the five hundred spice bait, don't worry, take your time. ”

"Second brother, we have a small number of people, why do we still divide the troops? Even if we divide the troops, you have to take the bulk of the troops, you just leave me with thirty people. ”

Liu Tugou said with a smile: "Isn't this the first thing to save the capital, you are so easy to kill as a grandmaster?" I will go to the Moon Gate and wait, if that captain goes elsewhere, we have to go home, if you choose this road, we can only blame him for his bad life." ”

First ascend the village, beacon tower.

Because it is the residence of the captain first, the inside has long been decorated like a mansion, which is not the same as the ordinary beacons in the bitter cold land around the city.

The first floor of the stage is a huge living room, which should be very dark and brightly lit, not to mention the luxurious things such as brocade tent screens, and the originally damp and cold floor tiles are covered with thick fur mattresses and bright carpets.

It is said that the Captain of the Illustrious Captain was still not satisfied, and planned to put a wooden floor under the mattress before the onset of this winter, and install a dragon under the floor to replace the smoky stove.

Ren Xichou stepped on the red carpet and looked at Li Songqi who was kneeling behind the low bookcase, his expression was calm and calm.

His gaze occasionally crossed the face of the guard behind Li Songqi, except for a left lieutenant and a hundred cavalry commanders, there was only such a henchman left by the side of the captain.

Lu Bingchen wore a filial piety suit and sat silently under Li Songqi.

Captain Xiandeng's face was gloomy as water, and his knife-like gaze was stabbed on Ren Xichou's face: "Ren Xichou, you know in your heart how Luo Yu died, it just so happens that Bingchen is also here, as long as you confess your guilt, the captain of this school can be lightly punished, and you will be allowed to atone for your sins." ”

"Captain Luo Youwei naturally took the lead and was generous in the bloody battle that day. ”

Half of Ren Xichou's face was still hidden under the bronze mask, his eyes were deep and subtle, but the words he said almost made Li Songqi explode his lungs.

"Right Lieutenant Luo has been dead for five days, and he hasn't seen the adults ask the teacher for his guilt, so why should he be coy at this time? ”

Li Songqi withdrew his anger, leaned back slightly, and glanced sideways at Lu Bingchen before he said slowly: "Oh, what is the problem of Lord Ben?"

"Let's make a long story short, Ren Xichou was entrusted by the brothers of the two battalions, and I implore my lord to confer the captain of Lu Bingchen's right battalion and Liu Tugou's left battalion lieutenant. ”

"Ridiculous!"

Li Songqi straightened up suddenly, and slapped the book case heavily, but there was not much anger on his face: "Okay, first I privately intercepted the military horses, and now I am reaching out to ask for an official, do I really dare not kill people as a captain first?"

He didn't mention that the captain of the left battalion was still alive and well, because it didn't matter at all, but looked at Lu Bingchen and said, "Can the children of Jianzhou swallow this breath?"

Lu Bingchen bowed his hand and said lightly: "If Bingchen takes over as the right lieutenant, he will probably be able to swallow it." ”

Li Songqi was stunned, and after suddenly realizing that he finally moved the real fire, he said without hesitation: "No wonder the two of you came to the door one after the other, and you dared to make an appointment." Also, Luo Yu died, the right camp is already ironclad, Lu Er's death is worth it, he really picked a good time......"

Before the words fell, Lu Bingchen had already stood up suddenly, holding the hilt of his sword and said coldly: "My lord, be careful! The ancestor was martyred before Luo Youwei, and the old man is sincere, and no one will be allowed to slander him!"

Li Songqi was suddenly a little stunned, and said: "Ling Zu's sacrifice for the country is heroic, and Brother Lu himself is also the remnant of the bloody battle, and his prestige in the right camp is unmatched, and the captain of this school also wants you to sit in the position of right captain." As for Liu Tugou, his qualifications are too shallow, I'm afraid he ...... You can't convince the public, can you?"

Ren Xichou smiled slightly and said: "As soon as the adult joined the army, he became a titled captain, and the humble rank never felt that the adult's qualifications were shallow. Speaking of which, the general who attacked the village was a real grandmaster, and the reason why he only brought 3,000 people was thanks to the Fourth Banner. ”

"What? You mean ......"

Li Songqi was taken aback, and even Lu Bingchen couldn't help but be moved.

Although Liu Tugou did not return to the village, he still sent a horse to carry a letter back, and the fourth banner defeated 7,000 people in the north and south of Yinshan, beheaded more than 3,000 people, and beheaded two commanders, I don't know...... Can you convince the public?"

Ren Xichou did not hesitate to put the achievements of the two grandmasters of Yinshan Xuanzong on Liu Tugou's head, anyway, no one knew the inside story.

As for the beheading, the heads of the Di people killed in the battle of the Ten Thousand Caves will definitely not be obtained, and the total number of Di people who died in the Heron Camp and the Moon Gate is more than three thousand, which can be cut off for merit.

The two commanders were indeed killed by Liu Tugou, one was silently torn apart by the sword qi, and the other was tortured and happy.

Of course, Li Songqi didn't believe it, Lu Bingchen had Lu E's last words as the foundation, and he didn't show much doubt after being shocked.

It's just that his face sank suddenly: "So, that Di Ren Wanfu and the three thousand Di Qi are here to seek revenge on Liu Tugou?"

He held his sword and walked towards Ren Xichou, and his tone was already cold: "In other words, the ancestor died because of him?"

Ren Xichou nodded and said, "Even if this Wan Di rode didn't go south that day, there will always be a day when it will attack." Brother Lu is a reasonable person, and he should know the truth that he should not be angry with others, so that Zu Yingling is not far away, and he must not want to see any more senseless losses from the children of Jianzhou. ”

Lu Bingchen stopped when he heard this, and sneered: "Jianzhou has produced countless great swordsmen since ancient times, when has there ever been a gentleman?"

Ren Xichou sighed, looked at Li Songqi and said, "Why didn't I think of this layer, adults should be careful later, the sword has no eyes, and each has a destiny." ”

As he spoke, he took a few steps back, and reached out to open the iron-clad door behind him, revealing the blackened human head and the shiny blade outside the door.

There are those in the right battalion and those in the left battalion, and they are clearly distinguished, and they are silently facing each other.

The two ordinary guards guarding the door were held to their necks with knives and did not dare to move.

Today's Li Songqi is no longer able to have the luxury of using a master of qi training to guard the door.

Lu Bingchen seemed to have expected it, and glanced back at the dumbfounded Li Songqi, which was difficult to understand.

The brocade robe on Li Songqi's back was instantly soaked in cold sweat.
